When will this reach Port Harcourt?

michlins:
you all have one thing in common with FFK, lack of decency in making your opinion known. You can raise your points without insults. Counter the points that I raise or shut up

michlins:
dude you don't question my sanity on a faceless forum. Didn't your mom teach you on how to respect people?

Anyway this is how it works, abuja are filled with political jobbers whose only business is eating from the political table. So in the event they can't eat from the said table, they leave and the landlords are forced to reduce the rent to reflect the situation. It's only in Abuja that you will see a house only occupied by the gate man and once in a blue moon, the Oga comes with his girlfriend to spend time there.

Morealso because the money ain't flowing like before, the artificial wellness created by corruption and free money is removed and the stark reality is burning everyone.

It is my personal opinion that the article failed to state one very important contributory factor leading to the cut in rent. And this factor is the high degree at which new estates are coming up in Abuja. There is no place you will go in Abuja that you will not see several residential estates coming up. So many of them are scattered all over. Yesterday I visited river park estate in lugbe along airport, this estate after completion will have not less than 500 to 1000 duplexes of all cateigories , on completion this estate a lone will affect the cost of renting houses in Abuja. I can count more than 10 new other estates coming up along the same airport with each having not less than 100 to 150 duplexes of different categories on the average and this is only airport road. If you put together the number of new estate coming in Abuja everyday it will not be out of place to say that in the near future the cost of buying
a house or renting one will crash again.

True Ooooh... me that does not default in paying house rent before.... Now find it difficult to pay... paid only half and now another one is due now... I hope my landlord will not throw me out ooooooh.... Anyway God dey!

Those Abuja's houses and other real estate areas in Nigeria are overvalued. Tell me how can a normal human being pay N1.2bn for a plot of land in Eko Atlantic. It is now the economic reality of this Buhari administration that is taking a bite, the novel riche are not able to service their extravagant lifestyles anymore, Nigeria ordinarily is a low income country, it is because of few corrupt elites that spent the money about on elephant projects in the past administrations that caused the inflation to rise. We have been leaving from hand-to-mouth before now, except this administration. PHCN has not taken lights in my area for 2 weeks, unprecedented in Nigeria. That's why the disgruntled politicians are forming new caucus in PDP.

It's truth that flowing of illegal money has been blocked, if low income earners are not corrupt still they benefit from the currupters either by buying of goods and services for example - Lagos Atlantic City sites had experienced lowest level of continuity of works due to many that has projects there stop due to the fear of government as they knew that they're spending illicit money and this will affect artisans and traders, that's how money flows around. Thanks

Mgbadike80:
this have been my conclusion since last year, Nigerians should think on how to acquire skills and move abroad for further studies and eventual settlement there. this country is ripe for another wave of emigration.

Hahaha... You really sound pained!!! Well I'm sorry... No more free money lol

vote wisely...
*vote Muhammad BUHARI* for the completion of his selfless service

I'm not a politician nor in support of any political party..but I'm in support of selfless Nigerian?

Pls share, if you are a good ambassador

michlins:
not again. This is same mistake that brought in this monumental failure. We said anything but Jonathan and see what we got. We definitely making a good choice come 2019. Hope you have a voters card. The people who decides the winner are people with voters card

Livefreeordieha:
you aren't a smart person but in your illusion you think so,act so,but in the end it all amounts to self ridicule...Before you bark in anguish like a rabid shiwawa..Think about all you wrote compare and contrast it..Redemption is free bro grab it afterwards.!

PrecisionFx:


There's no messiah to vote, We already know that APC or PDP will win in 2019.

I insist that anything is better than buhari. We have never had it this bad since 1970. Herdsmen have been killing people for over 3 years now n occupying their ancestral land and Buhari has been feigning ignorance since den. I don't even want to talk about the economy.



"" We said anything but Jonathan ""

Igbos never said anything but Jonathan, That idea was born in Yoruba land out of greed n jealousy. We aren't stupid like the rest, we know what counts.

Boschh:


We are talking about the Low Income earners here bro. Standard of living has dropped so low that one cannot feed himself properly before talking about rent. As per corrupt officials, Do not be deceived, They are still looting funds. Forget the TV and News Theatrics..

amiskurie:


Don't stress yourself replying those empty skulls.one thing i had learnt over the years is that they no matter how you try to let see beyond there nose,the dumber the gets.
I and many other people here on nairaland had stopped replying them.this is why they think they can spew thrash freely.

escodotman:


I don't think you are Ok at all. People are suffering due to economic hardship and failure of governmenrt, are those low income earners also corrupt? So in your own twisted mind, a country is not corrupt and all is well when the citizens are suffering and can't afford to provide basic needs for their familes?

ironheart:
its economic hardship because 70% of abuja resident are jobless driving big cars and living in big houses to make believe. Since government officials no longer see free money its very tight in Abuja. Lagos is a lot better cos everyone is doing one job or the other. You need yo visit Abuja

This doesn't even make any sense.

Mklancee:
something tells me Nigeria is ruin forever.
it will never return to it original position even if buhari is to leave office.
we don't have the kind of leaders that can take us back

michlins:
There are no longer free money flowing about. Believe it or not, corruption has been controlled by this administration and is only available for the elicits who are favored by the administration. And that's why many are being pained because they aren't benefited

Originalsly:


This comment and the one by Michlins are basically saying the same thing. What exactly is crazy about the comments no one can say...that makes me question the sanity of the people just condemning the statements but cannot say why.
The biggest problem facing the country and preventing it from progressing is not the government nor President....it is the mentality of the people.

Sagay212:


Abuja is a useless place filled with useless big houses built by political armed rubbers. So many big empty houses in abuja for rent but nobody to rent them. they steal government money to build huge houses and put high rent cost that even high income earners who work legally cannot afford. We know the country is hard and people are suffering, but the people suffering would not have been able to rent the houses even Jonathan's govt. The only people that would have been able to afford the rent would have been the small girls with big gods.

Nigerian politicians are too daft. instead of using stolen money to start a meaningful business to employ youths, they'll be building houses everywhere like birds. houses that people can't afford the rent.

Only cowards insult people from behind a fence. Sorry bro, don't come at me. It is not my fault that you are they way you are.
