Call it whatever name you like. Omo onile is a Yoruba word. Igbo get name for their own extortion. The bottomline is you must pay the money before you break ground.

In my own case, those boys showed up immediately the saw activities on my land to tell me about the compulsory fees, failure to pay will lead to forceful disruption of activity.

bros, landlords association and town development unions are not the equivalent of omo oniles, read vingeophysicist post below to understand what is omo onile. nkpor,onitsha, obosi and ikwerre youths are mostly lazy unemployed youths and criminals, you paid to have peace of mind not because it's the custom in idemmilli, many others would refuse to pay and they would back out if they notice that you have strong eyes. by the way, why should anybody advice you to buy land in nkpor? don't you know that every town have undesirable areas due to crime?

Demainman1:
Well, you probably have only built a house in your village so no point in arguing with you. I will try and dig up a thread where spyder880 settled with the land owners in the east and paste it for you to read

bros, that might be extortionist and illegal but it's not the same as omo onile where you pay for each stage of construction, i have a construction thread here of an ongoing work at onitsha, we paid about 300k in total fees before we even broke ground, it was painful then but when i saw the Landlord association installing concrete poles and connecting electricity in the area, i didn't feel too bad again, omo onile is an entirely different beast on it's own.

tivta:
I follow spyder880 and he has never complained of such in the east, what happens is that after you settle the village head and local government you are free to continue work (in my state sha and most parts of the East), it is deadly in the south south followed by the southwest...

bros, there's nothing like omo onile in anambra, nri ani is a general term meaning to cook a meal for the neighborhood on the day they would witness the handover of the land, even here in the north, it's done not compulsorily but always advised to forestall possible future disputes. onitsha and nkpor youths have been trying very hard to introduce it but it has been largely unsuccessful with the obi of onitsha paying for radio announcements discouraging such practices with warning of possible sanctions. in rivers state, amaechi have stopped it especially in obiakpor local government where it was successfully introduced by the local youths.

@ Lastpage Baba Agba,

Mo ti se iba awon to ju mi lo. E da mi po mo Omo to.

I cannot go through all the comments after my last post this morning but I cannot but skim through to locate golden piece from the elderly ones like you.

I won't say too much stories here. I have to prepare for something Big tomorrow.

Maverrick, I accept to pay you N250k and here's my unreserved apology for the whole rancour between us. Pls kindly allow me some time to work this out. Trust me, I'll definitely see to a happy ending. And whatever it is that has happened between us is not getting beyond this screen. I'll still want us to dine together, chase deals together and roll together as ever before. I hope that can happen in not too distant future.

brabus my man, you're a real man no matter what, ranka dede.

50k going going going, baba fake alpha male come and redeem yourself o or forever remain silent.man pass man na true talk, igbo proverb says that "nwoke na ibe ya ha bu na onu" (all men are equal is in words only) while Hausa would say "tafi gida nki mana"( (shamefully) go home). the two Proverbs are for the resident old fool in chief.

well, he just referred to you as sheeple and spineless for advising him not to wear military camouflage while in Nigeria, i told you that the guy is hopelessly lost. no wonder he's on his third marriage, #babahasgonesenile.

bros look at the other pictures, he sat next to his own seat.

biko adiro na dictionary mu, oga hajj have cautioned that old fool times without number and he still doesn't want to grow some sense. however i will say sai anjima for now.

4nobody4every1:
Lol, criminals are smart, before they pick there target they sometimes spend days or weeks surveying and monitoring the environment, so with that ISIS/BOKO HARAM flag hanging on that site and considering the havoc done by what the flag represent, it will send mixed messages to would be criminals and might likely make them back off..Lol

a buccaneer flag standing next to a Nigerian flag simplely shows that the owner is childish,a vigilante group flag flying solo is what's a message, a lunatic is talking about defending his home and family with a bow and arrow when real men hold forth with pump action rifles backed with a valid gun license from the police.

see what the old fool did at his prison construction site, walahi, baba has finally gone senile.

Ikhige:
my point is take this outside, i dont care who pays who. we dont know brabus,take this stale topic elsewhere so others can learn.

you're entitled to your opinion but clearly we the majority are equally entitled to our own contrary opinion that these contracts were made from here and should therefore be settled here besides many of us have learnt a lot from these banters so it's all part of the thread purpose. if I'm in maverick's shoes, i would do exactly what he's doing,

Ikhige:
400k guy, only you dey mock who dey build slowly and you dey seek online communal effort to drag 400k. oga park well. 400k don turn you and your likes to shakespeare

what exactly is your point or you just want to argue for argument sake? i don't see anyway you're trying to settle the matter, since brabus have paid 50k, let him humblely ask for more time with a concrete timeline for payment that's what i expect you to suggest since a solution is what matters here, thanks.

oga brabus settle with this guys and secure your reputation, i don't have any personal problem with you but I'm telling you the truth as i see it. they are successfully destroying your reputation.

agarawu23:
great when we have reasonable things to read.

My night was cool. Yours?

great my brother, please forgive my online tantrums, i no be like that o.

a renowned Nigerian builder that you can't even give your home building project, baba you no get shame o, it's far honourable for you to keep your trap shut than to be rambling like a confused and subdued pretender trying to masquerade behind an alpha male screen.how is the operation one year, one block going? let's have hope, maybe we would attend the house warning ceremony in the year 3016, #fakelifestyle.

agarawu23:
hmmmm........

Same old story everyday,
Same argument without positive outcome,
Same issues without a way forward,
Different "punch lines" everyday,

Any positive result since? NO

Those involved should open a thread and sort things out there. Majority of ppl come to this thread to learn and gain things about building construction (which I Blv that's the main, reason for this thread).

DISCUSS ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION

guy park well joor, so you know that the thread is great yet you asked for it to be deleted because some people were called out for their misdeeds? the contract was conducted here in public so let it be sorted out in the public, anyway, how's your night?

the lunatic is back and calling his betters nincompoops, honestly, he is a textbook example of a stubborn goat, baba have you paid your ex wives and their children their entitlements for last month or do you want to spend time in jail before you do?how's your one year, one block project going? #babagoslow. @brabus, guy please make sacrifices, these guys are really destroying your reputation here big time.

please under which rock did that old lunatic that styles himself a masquerade crept under? his two divorced wives are threatening to have him thrown into jail for non timely payment of child and spouse support and he's here forming big man online for us with pictures of catfish pepper soup and orijin. a shameless old man that doesn't even own a mud house to his name in the village, #babanosense.

@ 3strike, Oga Brabus said you should spread your yoga mat with madam and everyone should grab their popcorn with a bottle of coke by 8:00pm when he'll be launching a reprisal attack.

Movie title: Unmasking the fake ones.

Everyone reach one!

if i were you/brabus, i would make some pleas/sacrifices to get this guys off your back, they're seriously hurting your reputation here and that is supposed to be your greatest selling point, you have talent and good packaging but you need to improve on your public relations. do you know how many times spyder880 has suffered loss due to wrong materials like a different roofing sheet colour is ordered? he doesn't argue but quietly bears the loss. learn from him and bear some loss to safeguard your reputation. please I'm just begging so don't take it as an attack.

MrEverest:
Ofcourse everyone knows his detention is spurious & illegal but the dullard is an illiterate who still believes that might is right. One thing is sure, he cant hold on to Nnamdi Kanu till infinity, afterall Madiba spent decades in prison & yet was victorious in the end!

buhari himself spent so long in prison that by the time he was released, his marriage has crashed. kanu will surely fare better than him

mufutau55:
People sorry, I was late coming here... been missing some posts lately for various reasons.....

Please let's all go back to discussing about how to improve and help our projects. This is defeating the purpose of this thread o.
No need to name anyone, we are all guilty of something at some points here...
Please let's stop the bickering, name-calling, curses and uses of
abusing languages... Let's keep moving to help ourselves. Thank you all.

Hajji M.

chairman, you're the most respected member of this board but i have to refuse your appeal for truce. that old shameless vulture likes picking on people for no just reason and even resorts to plain lies to taunt them just to message his overblown ego whereas he's just a complete failure in life that have nothing to show for his many decades of sojourning in America. no grown up family, no house even in his native Ibadan, nothing, not even a good reputation and yet he won't respect the boundaries of civilized social encounter. the epithet on his tombstone would surely read "here lies the fool that left nothing to show for his long miserable years on earth" by the way, ask him to pay up his last month due for child and spousal support or the authorities might have to lock him up again once he shows in the USA.

mavverick:
Lol
contract to build prison ! same person that NL build his prison for him, buy block open thread, buy padlock, open thread.
No wonder it took years, i think 5 yrs or so.
And so much bragging about importing everything, the hussle is hard for Egun oo.
The funny thing is that its people like Egun that dont even have papers, people wey Obama just pity carry temporary paper give, and yet he comes on a faceless forum, forming big man because he's building a prison courtyard...

mr alpa male aka masquerade has suddenly lost his voice, i hope he has paid child and spousal support money for the month.

mavverick:
Lol
I wonder if he will import the inmates and watch them from the courtyard.
The guy is a real lunatic.

please somebody should ask the false life masquerade how many professionally written contracts he signed with his builder. talk about an evil old man that supports wrongdoing.

3strike:
I dont know if I can laugh o but everyone know say baba no well and we all just dey manage the issue..

no wonder he's building a psychiatric prison yard with a courtyard for the inmates to enjoy their fifteen minutes a day sunshine. since it's taking him like forever to complete it, i promise to supply all the restraining chicken wires, imported from Germany to hasten the construction of the detention/concentration camp facility. don't thank me o, I'm just contributing my quota to reducing the number of frustrated imported raving and roaming lunatics on the loose.

If you have more enemies than friends, it’s time to examine your mental attitude.


When your enemies outnumber your friends, the answer to the problem most likely resides within you. Ask yourself, Am I the kind of person I would like to have as a friend? Do I consider the feelings of others, or do I think only of myself? Do I try to find the good in others, or am I always finding fault? When something goes wrong, do I search for a solution to the problem, or do I look for someone to blame? In the answers to such questions, you may find the answer to the question: Why do I have more enemies than friends?

Culled from Napoleon hills foundation.

Make building talk continue abeg but pls dont talk about importing anything o. #buynaijagrownaija

i sincerely think that guy needs serious psychological counseling, no wonder his wife divorced him and took everything with her.

dan56:
I MAY consider to send only the foundation layout to you email anytime am free.

that would be great. greenermodels@gmail.com

dan56:
maybe next project all drawings were already completed before it went for approval.

nice work, more power to your concrete, can i see the structural drawings, i can drop my email if you want.

i once read the book, the Nigerian revolution and the biafran war and there was this account of the night of the northern counter coup, soldiers were summoned to the parade ground, eastern/igbo soldiers were singled out, loaded into military trucks supposedly to the railway station, along the way, the trucks were diverted to a bush, the soldiers were lined up and shot with a machine gun and then robbed of their belongings but among the soldiers was one who was not hit, he feigned dead even when be robbed of his wallet and wristwatch and later escaped, he eventually told the story to the author before he was apprehended at the makurdi bridge, shot and his corpse thrown into the river. i would want a civil war era game starting with this man's story except that he eventually had to lead a few others as they fight their way from kaduna to biafra.i have more ideas but let's stop here for the moment.

i don't think it's a great idea to build for rent in Nigeria because it takes like forever to recoup your capital plus most Nigerians are thieves and liars who would like to take advantage of you regardless of how much is their annual income. those of you attacking igbo people should have courtesy to modify their posts to a more acceptable tone, i have more than enough stories of bad Yoruba tenants here in the north not to talk of their reputation for hygiene and noise making.

it means I dnt get what you wrote in ur reply

i mean you should consult the thread by amalone aka oluwa champion.

No matter how much you
wail, Buhari is Apc god, he's above mistake, he's the
best thing after jollof rice and the best president the
world has ever seen. You people have become so
blind to the new wave of progress and development
in the country. Since Buhari came into power, we
have been enjoying 92 hours of electricity everyday in my
area, fuel is now 45 naira per litre, prices of
goods have crashed by 50%, Boko Haram have been
technically defeated, the Chibok girls have been
found, unemployed graduates now collect 5000 naira
monthly, school children now take fried rice and chicken in
school and investors are now trooping in everyday, what
else do you people want?

he promised 300k for every passing out youth corps member, 500k jobs every year etc. we need it ASAP.
