it has become a tradition in Nigeria that most corpses are usually buried in their compound instead of at a public cemetary. burying dead in their compound is bad for real estate business and land laws.

An example of this dilemma is the guy on this thread who was contemplating his family land with is mom's grave in the compound.

That is how we copy everything western and shove it down our peoples throat…
Oga you can go and bury your parents in the evil forest inugo

It’s our culture to revere our own even in death.
The little space you give your parents on the ground they threaded in their lifetime will not stop you from building all the skyscrapers of the world.

This proofs nothing! were you able to prove these people participated in the theft of your phone?


And why would one want people's fathers dead just because they stole your phone? Or rejoice that their fathers died because of a stolen phone? Did you consider that as justice for you? For your stolen phone? It was just a bloody phone! you could replace it, which i believe you have.


And why would their fathers die? Their fathers didn't steal your phone. You see? Why i said you may be imagining things. undecided

There are no such thing as spirits they don't exist!

Identity theft is living with someone else’s wealth in their own homes under their identity it starts with a phone o but now let me now explain what if it was meant to be stolen because to catch a big fish you have to lay a big trap my baby daddy is more important than my boyfriend sometimes

Lekki is not their land of origin.
When they die, their corpses are taken to their villages and buried in their village mansions or family compounds

Only in third world African countries do people bury the dead in their compound.even south Africa does not practice such . burying of the dead in their compound is bad for real estate.
I have mentioned on my other thread that Nigerian needs real estate land reform. we can not afford the current method if Nigeria will be developed.

In fact , most Nigerians do not pay property tax . and yet you expect roads and street lights and public amenities to be fixed? there needs to be compulsory property tax which will deter people from thinking the land belongs to them forever and therefore burying dead on the land.
people should pay heavy property tax if they want to own a home. if you can't afford property tax then rent an apartment.

You want them to tax innocent people who hustled to build their house ?….what if the land actually belongs to the dead person that is buried there …..some parents insist they bury them on their property …..plus wetin concern una …..all the tax wey una dey pay …..wetin dem don use am achieve ?

Buhari is not the only problem we have in this country……..

If we have people who still think like this

Lagos has land use tax incase you don’t know …..so u still want them to increase it and discourage people from owning their own property in peace

No one has replied my suggestion about compulsory property tax. In Nigeria most people do not pay property tax both for land and house , Once you buy a land and build a house in Nigeria ,it's yours forever, that should not be the case. there must be compulsory property tax. the money will be used to build and maintain roads, street lights, waste removal, etc. Even if the land is empty , the land owner must be paying tax for that land. that will discourage people from fighting over land due to the responsibilities involved. Also, land owners would be encouraged to utilize profit from their land and property , in order to generate profit to maintain the land. For example , a landowner can use their land for agriculture to generate profit.
the bigger the house and amenities and land, the bigger the property tax.

If a land owner or home owner defaults on payment of property tax, the land and house would be seized by the authorities .

Let me give you example, if Michael Jackson's Neverland was in Nigeria, he would not lose it because most Nigerians do not pay income tax, property tax ,sales tax ,etc.

There must also be compulsory insurance for all cars, whether the person is driving the car or not, he or she must pay insurance for that car . that will deter people from buying 10 cars . Also wrongful parking and overloading of vehicles must be heavily fined

we must learn from what other successful countries are doing and do the right thing or we will keep going in circles in the name of backward traditions and culture.
THE TAX YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, ARE YOU NOT FROM THIS COUNTRY? What have they use the already collected taxed for if not for embezzlement or misappropriation purposes, For any thing to work in Nigeria, the rate of corruption in political office holder must Reduce to the minimum level they can talk about level more the people, will you be happy, you pay tax, instead of you expecting development and good social amenities, your taxed been embezzled and buy different properties outside the country, next will you like to pay more tax? Knowing fully those tax will been used for their own selfish gain.

Thank God Nigeria is still a 3rd world country so your comparison does not hold water. People should pay huge tax n all without jobs and good health care facility and light right? You must be a govt theivery official and frustrated that you want people to still pay to bury their loved ones so that you n real estate can smile to d Bank. When you do a comparison, try to do it properly and not just d one that suits you.

Or to have restlessness in the public cemetery

It is barbaric.

Especially in a country where we use well water and borehole everywhere. It can lead to contamination of ground water. Reluctance to buy properties with graves. Etc
