budaatum:Thanks. Let assume one is available for sell now, how much do you think could be the cost? I will ask further question after this. I'm just trying to figure out something. Thanks |

IranianSea: I don't know how much land sells in Ketu now, I'm afraid. I'd expect a few millions though. Bus from Ketu to Palm Grove was 10kobo in the early 80s, and John Player was 2 for 5kobo. Geisha, I think, was 20kobo, and a box of Uncle Bens was 30kobo. To give you an idea of inflation since then. |

budaatum:Thanks. What I'm trying to find out is. A plot of land worth 2m as at today. Can it ever be sold for 100m let say in the next 30 years |

Lagos has always been overpopulated. |

IranianSea: Yes, it can be 100m, if not in 30 years, in a hundred years perhaps, or even in 10 years time. Nigeria's population is growing at a phenomenal rate so we are bound to run out of land sometime soon. People tend to not realise that we suffer a poverty of land area, which is why we are fighting each other so much. For perspective, Texas land area is 695,662 km² with population of 29m, while Nigeria land area is 923,768 km² with 201m people. Work out people per km² and you'd see how land poor we are, compared. Its like a third more land and like 7 times more people! Ketu was no man's land in the 80s and bush in the 70s, but go there now and people have taken over everywhere. I remember when Isolo ended at Oke Afa, but now there's Ikotun and a road to LASU! In my days, it was Mile 2 or stay home. 2 Likes |

budaatum:Nostalgic... It made some brands from that era such as Kingsway Stores and DRUM Magazine, etc, flash through my mind. You obviously were born in the 60s for you to have a recall of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway (constructed in the late 1970s) N1 eggs, 50 kobo canned Coke, and the VW Kombi bus experience. A true Warrior like you keeps trucking regardless of the headwinds. Lol. I guess you must have taken a Bolekaja from Lagos to Orolu back then via Ikorodu Road in 1973? Last but not least, are the folks of Ifon in Osun in anyway related to the Ifon people in Ondo State? Enjoy your day. 1 Like 1 Share |
