Whataboutism is a weak form of rebuttals. Here I was thinking you are going to show me how people were chased away or killed because they are not indigenes as you premised, alas you ended up pulling a straw man's fallacy.


Thats to show how bad Nigeria has sunk

People are being killed all over the place, this one is more concerned with who sat at home

TimeMachine2 and helinues are not living in SE yet, they want to finish SE with lies and propaganda they fabricated in their camp.
I have a vacation house in Awka for my second wife. When east was peaceful, I spend every Christmas with my in-laws there. I used to drive around mid night from her community to awka. So, please say what you want to say, but do not disrespect me.
I married her out of love and anger when a foolish boy insulted me on this forum.

Mr man, do you understand that Nigeria is not one ? I am particularly worried about the southeast and people like you that keep lying all over the internet because my second wife is from anambra and my 3 beautiful kids from her visits their grandparents regularly. So, what's my business with what is happening in Jos or wherever? I have businesses across 5 states, and I adhere to the local laws and respect the culture of my hosts communities and support their candidate of choice during election.

Which east ? Stop deluding yourself. Just mention a single billionaire business man living in any part of the traditional 5 South Eastern states and I will give you a million naira. Even the so called meeting amongst ibo elders is done outside the southeast. Obi china lives in lagos, the shameless Kenneth Okonkwo rants from his lagos abode while evil twin psaure and that old fool charlie boy can't last 5 minutes in the east. Every other prominent person from southeast have moved to asaba or elsewhere.
Southeast is the most hopeless place to live at the moment, far beneath desolate places like Zamfara or Boko haram states.

How much new blood is added in your veins with these high level of lies. deceit and propaganda...?

Funny.
What a cheap propaganda.
It is not a propaganda. I personally have some lands around Ajah and Ibeju lekki, but after the last election, I can't see myself developing them. In fact, as a matter of fact, all my lands in Lagos are up for sale since April though I haven't gotten good offers.


My brother that's into real estate on the Island; he builds and sell....has put up more than 8 different lands he has for sale on the Island, and he said the rate of selling properties (finished buildings on the Island) have dropped unlike some years back, so he is gradually expanding into other businesses outside Lagos.


I have friends who live abroad (US, Germany, Korea, etc) that have been telling me how they plan to acquire a property in Lagos this year, but since the last election, they said God forbid. One have already bought massive land in Owerri, Awka and planning to start building before the year runs out, the only thing discouraging him now is the insecurity in southeast.


The second friend have started investing in Abuja as we speak, be said Lagos is too toxic, that he won't even be landing in Lagos like before any longer whenever he is coming back to Nigeria.



If you ask people into real estate in Lagos, they will tell you that the tribal attacks on Igbos in lagos during the last election has affected the real estate business. Its a gradual process, the message is spreading among Igbos.


I can never encourage any friend or relative to invest in real estate in Lagos again like I do encourage them before 2023.



Though its nothing for now, but gradually the impact will be felt cos the message is being spread by Igbos, one at a time

Mention one prominent man that say Ilorin is not a Yorubaland... Infact I've never met a person from Ilorin that denied being Yoruba, even those crossbreed that went to same school with me in Edo claim Yoruba...

Anything that happen in Ilorin is religion intolerance among same people, stop giving it ethnic colouration.. It makes you sound dumb... 💯

This is why that are sponsoring propaganda against SE. IPOB agitation has been on for long. Sit at home has been around for many years. There is nothing new now except hightened media propaganda. The gradual decline of Lagos has started and no propaganda can stop it. These things don't happen overnight but the long term impact are great

Here is more recent news if that suites you, the South west is lucky to have Amotekun, but the proliferation of non-state actors acting as security guarantor's doesn't bode for the countries future stability as you can see in the east, (which i remind is still overblown compared to the security situation elsewhere and the army has failed to fill the niche, if that is not adressed, more ESN like groups could appear not just in the south east but across the country as civilians try to defend themselves)

This is welcome news all round. Lagos property prices are well out of control.

The more people that leave to go to other places, the better.

Hopefully those places they are going to can cope with the influx of people and property price increases will be steady.

Lol, you don't even understand how economics work. If there is significant reduced investments in Lagos property market I.e. land and buildings, rents will skyrocket. You will end up paying 200,000 for a dirty 'face me I slap you' room. When new houses are not being built, there would be increased pressure on existing ones and thus increase in rents.

Secondly, slums will appear everywhere as desperation pushes people into living in ghettos since houses are either unavailable or too expensive.

Thirdly, the property sector in Lagos will crash. No one will be will be willing to sell lands they bought for 20 million at the rate of 10 million because that's what the few interested buyers are pricing. Even other non Igbo investors will run away from Lagos since there is no guaranteed reasonable ROI. These investors will now move to other places in Nigeria like Abuja, SE and SS.

The multiplier effect will see Lagos decline since no one will want to live in slums or forced to pay 1 million naira for a one bedroom flat.

I have a cousin who works as nurse in a US penitentiary. She wanted to buy five plots of land in Lagos for a mini estate. However, I warned her seriously about what is going on in Lagos. About violent attacks on Igbos and envious plans to reclaim Igbo properties in Lagos by Yorubas. She stated she wasn't even aware of all these issues until now. I convinced her to buy in Owerri. She bought the 5 plots there @13 million per plot.

Lagos loss has become SE and Abuja gain.

Abuja has overtaken Lagos in domestic flights since 2019 with Owerri growing fast. This happened unnoticed. It's a sign of shifting middle class population SE

I doubt your prophecy of doom for Lagos will ever happen but if it does, I look forward to watching Obidients dancing like David danced.

Lagos needs decongesting and quickly.

I was around b4 during and after election. Before the election I went to see some plots at Epute after sangotedo, like I know the out come of the election already, after seeing the land I told the guy to wait after the election. The guy called me 2 days after election to ask if am still interested? I asked him if he is in my shoes right now will he buy the land? I heard a deep breathe b4 he said well things are not that bad everything will settle down with time. I told him that I should wait when things settled down then. Yesterday he sent me "Good Afternoon Boss".

Another one at Elerengbe same thing.

Business and enlighten Yorubas know that the behaviour of some touts and their political sponsors dented the image of Lagos.
