Why Will Someone who lived in US For 45Years
Only For Him to come Back,Build a House In Ikorodu And Be Living There ? Shagamu would have been Better,Na Wa Ooo Ikorodu Of all places

You never can tell his story. Probably he sent money home for them to build for him in ogun state or a peaceful area in Lagos, and in a bid to chop money, they dis so in Ikorodu, or probably they told him to come to ikorodu that its better dor him. One thing i know is, if you have a good family member, they won't advice him to move to ikorodu, redemption camp would have been better, quiet, 24/7 electricity and its safe.......its so sad, after 45years of hustle........

I remember one man I came across the very next say after he came from America.

He arrived the day before and was in his brothers house when armed robbers struck, he was severely beaten and his brother was killed. He was just crying throughout. That had he known had he known.

Thieves were asking where the dollars where the dollars.i just thought inside job inside job.

I hope dangote struck has crushed them dead by now.

There is no place you will not hear of killing in Nigeria. God help us. My advice is, "Nigerians out there, don't come back!"

We don't know if that's where the people he sent money to decided to build house for him. Rather than buy land in a more secure area like Lekki, they decided to buy cheap land in Ikorodu and built house there. A lot of people from the diaspora don't get their choice property especially if they entrust the process to family members

Thats why the person should keep coming back to supervise his building. Sending money to people doesnt work most of the time

Terrible. They just have to try to keep a very low profile...who knows if their own family member even told the robbers of his whereabouts

Calm down, probably he was misinformed, Dangote lives in Lagos, Otedola does, Mike Adenuga, Jim ovia, 90% Nigeria billionaires all have houses in Lagos, and they live there. The problem is just the environment. Chicago is beautiful, same as New York, but trust me, there are parts of these places you don't wanna ever live in.

Ikorodu off all places. Is it stinginess or maybe he paid someone a visit. He didn’t see all this estates in magodo, and on d island? U sure it’s not his family and friends dat did dis. May his soul Rest In Peace. Some people wish to return home and enjoy their service pay from abroad but the country no get joy. I know of some who have gone back to d diaspora while some others are scared

Just this evening my friend showed me the video of his friend who returned from abroad and went to the east on Sunday. In broad daylight he was shot and left to die. I watched his car ridden with bullet holes and the dead guy seated in his car. Most of this news do not even make it to the News. The insecurity in Nigeria is at an all time high honestly

Yes ooo a good wife who will fly back and surprise the contractor, labourers and family members who will be trying to swallow the funds.

Even if the person marries a white lady they can still account for that by organising themselves properly.

All I know is that sending money when you know you cant come back regularly is the same as pouring it inside soakaway

Too bad. Clearest illustration of our present security situation.
All our anti corruption fight and nobody ever tries to stop our security agents from taking bribes on the road and living above their means. shocked

Bad boys also kill almost everyday in US, so he could have also been killed in US. We see this on news channels everyday. However, there are problems in Nigeria and insecurity is one of them. It is sad that the man lost his lifee in such a cruel manner. I am sure Thunder will strike the killers very very soon before they finally rot in hell fire.

I wondered too...but i think Friends and extended families possibly used sentiment to draw him back....e.g you never build house, you never come to see families, old people home not good, WU is not enough, come let us see you....blah blah blah! They say Africa is home because you are among your people undecided not true! Wherever you lived, worked and raised your family is home.
Home is where the heart is.

The culture wherein hardwork is relegated to the doldrums.

People do not see value in hardwork or modesty.

You praise Yahoo boys but little do you know, you cannot distinguish them from kidnappers or armed robbers.

Some of you would condemn this message not knowing you or your loved one would be condemned by your philosophy.

Until this craze for material things above peace and happiness is done away with, more and more victims would be found amongst us.
I will stand with you on the above points if you were not part of those who enthrone the present Government, and you see some gullible Persons praising the Govt and would even open their 32 teeth
and say things like, Govt at the center is working, Pathetic enough the nyash lickers call Northern Governors forum'
are praising him on economy, corruption, security etc yet things are getting out of hand everyday in all sectors.
It will never be well with anyone that contributed to enthroning these thieves called Government at the center.

You are right, but most of the time, you're very busy.

If you know youre busy then postpone until youre not or force yourself to make time

Sending money, even to your own brother at times, is a no-go area.

You can see what the economy has reduced people to. Plus bitterness and suffering.

After changing the foreign currency into naira a lot of people's eyes will just roll back into their heads so no need to tempt them

It is because of Buhari Oba Oyekan's supposed son killed a female restauranter in 2012 abi?

Or it was Buhati that pushed OUK or Madueke or Fayose to loot.

There's nothing wrong in building a house back home. but why anyone would want to come back to Nigeria after 45 years and choose to go to ikorodu to settle because you have a house there is beyond me.

This is a lesson to anyone who lives outside Nigeria, you can build and buy properties in nigeria but do not make the mistake of wanting to come settle down permanently here. You should only visit and spend one week maximum. When you come to Nigeria, go straight to a standard hotel in Ikeja or on the island and do not let anyone know when you'll be coming to Nigeria. once you are around, call whoever you want to call and have them come see you in the hotel restaurant, give them whatever you want to give and give them a fake date of return.
