Chukwu94:
The menace of omo onile in Lagos State have gotten out of hand. Some set of jobless individuals who have taken it up as a duty to frustrate people who work hard to earn a living and also build a house for themselves.

These thugs called omo onile who hide under the shadow of being approved by the sanwo olu's government have continued from where they stopped after the fashola's government. These people do nothing but come to request for exorbitant dues anytime you want to engage in a building project.

While I brought up this topic is to bring to the notice of the government the plight of lagosians in the hands of these jobless thugs called omo onile.


Share your experiences please..

we should be mindful of what we put on social media, because Lagos indigene sell land to outsider which can never happen in the east does not warrant this kind of post and Indirectly insulting fashola administration.... Pls make sure you will be responsible for what you put on. Social media.

What exactly are you talking about? Is it that you don't know that they a problem or you feel it's not necessary for people to cry out.

Jagaban : my boyz are on the news again doing the needful ...

Mindful of what? If you have nothing to share just take a walk..

Those idiots are horrible and are daylight robbers. The best way to deal with them is to use military force. They won't disturb you again. Some people also suggest settling the oba or baale of the area but it's a waste of time, it doesn't stop them from perpetrating their heinous acts.

Later Afonja ppl will complain of community dues in Niger Delta

Just have a pump action gun they will never try shit with u

The first pics are Omonile boys in that Ejigbo area. I'm aware of the matter.

Second pics is also of that same area but those boys aren't Omoniles.

Mine was in Owode-Onirin, Lagos. Like 4yrs ago, I acquired 2-plots of land and didn't immediately start work on it cuz my parents also live in the neighborhood. I never really had much problem with them and they even protected my land before I eventually built it . Once you've settled the main guy, you're good to go but, you go settle before you do foundation, decking and roofing. Whenever I come home for vacation you'll see them hailing me whenever I drive by or ride Okada to see my parents ( we all know what that means... "Isolenu"… I had to settle them

Whatever is of Ceaser's, you give to Ceaser's…

read the part where he indirectly accuse fashola administration....this is social media you don't know who is reading and that is why we need to be sure of what we put out here......in fact am a developer and I have more than one estate here in Lagos, so I can tell you more about omo onile in Lagos

Gracealone:
Mine was Ibafo. Paid for 4 plots. I delayed in fencing it, then someone else they collected money from came to cut his own 1 plot and started building it. I later fenced remaining 3 plots. Then after paying every member of the family, each coming and claiming he was cheated in the distribution of the money I paid.

The second phase is one woman in the family calling me for financial support on every occasion they had in the family, but I later told her off on a particular day. She once called me to come to her aid to complete the roofing of her house while I was yet to lay the foundation of mine at the time.

ROTFL...Chia! Inside life. Sorry bro.

Omo onile in Lagos ehn...... They can never leave. That's how one day a constructor came to my area in Makoko, upon stepping out from his car, he was greeted by a battalion of thugs, waiting to to collect money for stepping out of his car. After that they keep coming literally every time to collect money for any material delivered at the site.

Lagos and Omo onile is like Amala and Ewedu, inseparable

See this one.

They would dump a corpse on your land and go and report to the police that you're a kidnapper and ritualist.

On top of that, when police searches your house and sees pump action, you would be begging them to take the land.

Madness lol

I created a thread asking for help a while ago, one of them scammed me of 40Ok.. almost a year now they never see solution to my refund.

See am, so called leader of tomorrow already turning it into a tribal matter. Op asked for opinions and mind you, the op might even be an indigene yet you're here sounding not just unintelligent but myopic as well.

I take responsibility for this!all the Omo Nile or better still agbero in Lagos are jobless and heartless. What legal grounds do they have to frustrate people all because the politicians are behind them?

hosemujica:
We have to keep dealing with them if you live outside Vi and ikoyi. I gave them 12k today just to let my empty container drop. Hopefully government would have sense one day and realise that omonile should not be the tax man.

The govt is so senseless not to realize that fact.

I bought my land in 2016 at oko Afo in badagry area of Lagos State, the owner who sold the land to me was very sick needed money to travel back to village in Benin, I didn't knew their was issue on the land from the king of onilogbo, One old man next to king is called BABALOJA stop my Bricklayer from working after paying for foundation (150k)
I was asked to re-buy the land with half of the money I bought it from the owner or loss it to Omo onile, we negotiated and I repay 500k to them after buying it for over 1m still pay for roofing.

Later in life God punish them together, fighting with the king and his people over selling of land without palace approval,till today I can't never assist any of the family of those people,

I saw hell on earth during that period ,

Guy keep quiet if u don't know how to talk. This is niaraland and not Lagos where one man is controlling destinies. Is Fashola a God that he cannot be mentioned.
These people are meant to serve u and not u serving them. U are a developer yet u can't say the truth because Fashola is ur God father.

Shame on u elders that can not see wrong all because of what they will eat. Stop this ur hypocrisy.

Afamed amd mrchineke can tell us more

They don't try shit with u once u have a military or paramilitary personnel related to the owners of the land or owns the land

Skepticus:


Lagos is omo onile. Omo onile is Lagos. They are conjoined twins.

Separating Lagos from Omo Onile is like separating Nigerians from bad leaders.

It can never happen.

The Lagos State political and economic system which gets so much hype has an underworld element that most people fail to acknowledge but is highly relevant.

Omo-onile, NURTW thugs, Agberos, task force etc.

So what u are saying is that mrchineke is part of the mc oluomo crew and bows down to jagaban
Immhotep and GMBuharii must hear this

you see you are too daft to get my attention by asking me to travel and you don't know me

Not only Lagos oh... they are plentiful here in Delta. I am speaking from painful experiences.
At the end of the day, as somebody already commented: be humble, find them small change, and no worries.

The money you would have used to get police, security, or lawyer, just use this for the omo onnile tax.
It's good to verify and double-secure your documents, tax, forms, etc... but 10k and a smile will work wonders.

Seconded, it's quite similar to my experiences in the smaller towns outside Asaba. I acquired a few plots, and the first sign of trouble was when people came to start breaking the building I was constructing. Or when they won't let the suppliers offload their trucks. Or when I had to settle them again before roofing.

Issue of Omo Onile in Lagos has extended to almost all south west states. If you want to commence construction they will collect foundation fee, if you want to roof building another tax, plastering tax, flooring tax, septic tank charge, cement work fee, plumbing fee, Aluminum windows etc. Ikorodu is even worst. Osun state is catching up gradually.

They once sold a land to a soldier. Thereafter, they sold it to a Naval officer.

True life story, in this same Lagos.

Mixed feelings . Useless and time wasters but on a lighter mood you will hear stories which oba of Lagos does know �.
