Super1759: 6 plots of land makes a hectare.6 times 25000 is 150,000plots of land. Like he was trying to create his own republic

If this freaks you, wait till i do the correct calculation for you.

tessyade: Your calculation is slightly wrong. The report gave 2,500 hectares not 25,000 hectares (used in your calculation) but all the same thats too much.

Yes he was wrong, but like you said, even 2,500 hectares is evil.

@Super1759, if you check the size very well, you will see it's in Hectares, and not Acres, meanwhile, 2.5 Acres = 1 Hectare

Translation, 2,500 x 2.5 will give you the number of Acres, which = 6,250 Acres. Now if you want to know the number of Plots, you can then multiply that by 6.. you do the math.

Our leaders no longer steal our money, cos they already have too much, now they are taking our heritage and we are all cracking jokes around. While other brainwashed iidiots are busy engaging themselves in political e-touting. SMH

alj harem: tell me, is this not greed ?

How can ONE MAN own land the size of a city ? SMH

It is greed. It is even beyond greed.

The quest by dirty, corrupt, and grisly politicians to steal has become an obsession.

For some of them, it looks like a compulsive disorder to loot, plunder, and embezzle.

And from the look of things, they are not about to stop.

Just check out the way Nigerians argue and play the ethnic card whenever any of the corrupt people is called to question.

Unless something changes, the graft and larceny will continue.

That thing that can change is in the people.

eGuerrilla: Some perspective...

2500 hectares = 25 km² = 9.65255 mi²

9.65 square miles? angry

City of Sydney - 9.5 sq mile - Popn 182,226
Newark,New Jersey- 11.46 sq miles - popn 277,140
Pasay - 7.34 sq miles - popn 403,064 back in 2007
Manila - 14 sq miles - popn 1,660,714
City of Melbourne - 14 sq. miles
Lyon, France - 18.5 sq. miles - popn 483,000
Manhattan - 23 sq. miles
Miami FL - 35.68 sq. miles

I doubt NLers even know where to find these places on the map.

My village brothers. . . . No, you cannot see Miami from your backyard.

I wonder why this is very common in the south west. OBJ acquired a lot of land before he left power. Tinubu and Fashola as we speak are sharing Ikoyi and the Island massively. By the end of Fashola's second term, Lagos will be fully mortgaged. Something has to be done.

Wrong.

6 plots of land make an ACRE,

2.5 ACRES make a hectar,therefore 2,500 hectares = 6,250 acres =37,500 plots

ypzilanti: Fate has been kind to a man so horrible.

A man who almost died in jail, came out and swore to improve the prisons, but soon forgot his travails and became a despot.

Why i dislike him the most is his history with IWU of truncating the peoples choice in sham elections.

OBJ is a serious candidate for prison for the scams in power sector, halliburton deal, and numerous breaches of the constitution.

Only thing he ever did right was the framework for telecoms sector. That is ALL. The money from the auction of the license went down the rabbit hole as usual.

No one cares if you have a PHD in "these matters". Just take your bigoted finger pointing somewhere else. Nigerian leaders, from every corner of the Nation, given the opportunity, are crude and hideously materialistic crooks who steal without consideration and acquire far more than they need . We don't need your silly attempt to introduce a "South-West-steals-more-than-us" angle into things.

sheyguy: 2500 hactares! That's is enough land to land both of them in jail if there is anything close to a functioning juciary system in this country.
It is easy to see why the people of South West voted PDP out of power. . . Total corruption without remorse.
what of the ones Tinubu allocated to himself in all parts of Lagos. Yorubas are in slave in the hands of Tinubu

Later blame leaders for non-performance.SMH

OP, I wonder if OBJ thinks of death, atimes. He wants to rule the world but would be buried in a coffin that is just 6ft long! 2500 hectares of land is gross!
