Are people living in the estate already?

What land titles has the estate?

And what proposed charges for landlords on the estate are currently known?

Thanks.

As early as Late January to February 14th, lands were being sold at Lugbe Abuja for 400k flat... I mean FULL PLOT with papers and Inspections. Upon inspection with my agents in Abuja, I found out there were two areas where such lands were being sold and it was totally Legit, so I called up my lawyers and everything went on... My point is, I discovered that such places would be worth so much more than 2million naira by 2021 and beyond, so buying them now was an asset.

I suggest you find such and buy many as long as its a legit government allocated area and lawyers have cleared you, then you can buy, FENCE and HOLD till you are ready to sell. grin
Real Estate is usually cool. The main issue is of course fake land documents and dispute. If only knows a lawyer who knows the real estate market of an area very well, then he can do a thorough and reliable job.

Oh, so there’s no sickness that kills people with underlying health issue ?
Sure others illnesses do kill. Although you meant to be cheeky but useful.

In epidemiology you look at something called excess deaths. That is go back and check from 10 to 15 years ago until now. How many die yearly, in different age groups on average during various periods of the yellow.

Naturally during cold/winter months, more elderly people die. Partly due to winter flu virus. Consistently each year.

You now take the average over 10 to 15 years. January to June for example from 2010 or 2005 to 2020.

See how many more deaths were recorded over the average for that period compared to January to June 2020.

That has been done and the increase is astronomical. And those excess deaths mostly tested positive for Covid-19.

So they probably would not have died in much more numbers had they not caught Covid-19.

In addition disruption of health care further increased deaths in those not diagnosed with Corona,

Researchers ask all the questions you can possibly ask as they study and publish results.

I always find your contributions informative and insightful. Something intriguing though about the black race and Covid-19 which I am yet to fathom. In South Africa, US, Brazil and other nations outside Africa, it is reported that huge percentage of Covid-19 fatality comes from the black population. And yet the reverse is the case in Nigeria and much of Africa which is home to the black race. What may be responsible for this puzzle?
I will certainly appreciate your thoughts on this subject.
I already mentioned why partly. Blacks in those countries (USA, UK, etc) on the average are older than average blacks in Sub-Saharan Africa.

For example, a common drug (I won't mention the drug because some using it might stop out of fear) used to treat high blood pressure increases the receptors (docking points) that covid-19 virus uses to get into the cells in the body. More older people have high BP. I can say far few people under age 40 take medication for high BP than those over 60. That is JUST one example.

Also look at exposure. If more Nigerians could travel about visa free like UK, USA, France, Italian & Spanish citizens, a lot more cases would have been imported and much earlier from China, Europe, America, etc. And spread more in the population.

The more people who are exposed, the more likely are young people more susceptible (due to other illnesses, depressed immunity, genetics,), etc.

Until people are exposed, you never know who's in practice vulnerable individually. But data clearly shows older and already ill people are in more danger.

Long-standing systemic health and social inequities have put some members of racial and ethnic minority groups at increased risk of getting COVID-19 or experiencing severe illness, regardless of age. Among some racial and ethnic minority groups, including non-Hispanic black persons, Hispanics and Latinos, and American Indians/Alaska Natives, evidence points to higher rates of hospitalization or death from COVID-19 than among non-Hispanic white persons. As of June 12, 2020, age-adjusted hospitalization rates are highest among non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native and non-Hispanic black persons, followed by Hispanic or Latino persons
Social deprivation, inequalities, poverty, and those things you mentioned lead to what? All largely lead to poorer health than the more privileged people.

In effect a poor black person in America who has a chronological age of 40 might have a biological age of 60. When you measure his health indicators.

Even after adjusting for genetic susceptibility due to ethnic reasons, age still plays a big role.

You cannot honestly claim that a poor black American of 70 years does not have more susceptibility to severe Covid-19 disease than a 35 years old family member of his who lives same living standard.

Nothing is getting serious oga.
Really? Tell me about it.

Let me tell you something. The reason Covid-19 has not killed too many people in Africa is because Africa has a very young population. Because life expectancy is already low at about 52 years.

It has recently been shown that most infected in Nigeria are from 31-40 years old.

If Nigeria had life expectancy of say from 74 in men and from 82 in women like many Western countries, deaths would have been high too.

As people get older, on the average, they accumulate co-morbidity (several illnesses) including high blood pressure/cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, lung/airway disease and so on. These we now know increase risk of severe Covid-19 illness and death. I am not writing here as a novice.

Did I see autopsy there? Isn't cause of death glaring?
So many cases in need of autopsy were buried
with just verbal autopsy.

The world is too much with us.
In homicide, the proper thing to do is complete autopsy. It's a legal matter. To establish how and when victim did. At times even where they died.

If they died a year ago and the accused was in prison then, he couldn't have done it for example. Maybe he exhumed it from from somewhere and put in the rank.

He can only be punished for desecrating a corpse. Sounds farfetched but it happens. Different weird behaviors and deviance out there.

It's about tying all the loose ends in legal process.

My brother mortuaries are overflowing. Many are dying at home or on the way to hospital (only rushed when almost dead) and they are filling up mortuaries. Because many want Covid-19 lockdown to be over so they can give a "befitting" burial. Most were not given a befitting life o.

Many rather rely on pastor's prayer and anointing oil or water than seek medical help.
Some just do not have the money to get proper treatment.

The lower classes often live and die in ignoring while poking fun at the upper classes that are by far more enlightened, exposed and look after themselves far better.

Not all wealthier people have made money at the expense of the poor.

It's in Nigeria the same poor Nigerians aid, abet and praise politicians to loot.

It's all a plot. Igbo are aiming for "purity" and Yoruba aiming for imperialism. Igbo purity story fits into excision from Nigeria while Yoruba imperialism will make the the soul voice of the South. Since Igbo can be conveniently excluded, playing on Northern fear that Igbo want to break up Nigeria.

Edo is 4th largest ethnic group. Edoid people include Urhobo, Isoko, Okpe, Degema, Epie-Atissa, Ekpeye, much of Ikwerre (with some Igbo mixed into it) and many more, 22 distinct groups make up Edo. More are identifying themselves in Niger & Benue states.

Your ignorance leads you to call Edo minority. Edo are larger than Ijaw, Tiv and Efik/Ibibio.

On BBC last night (29th of June, 2020, in the news, they announced that museums will soon re-open. Benin arts section was what the news showed to signify museum. If you doubt it, watch it on BBC iplayer.

CultureRe: Some Igbo Words In Olaudah Equiano's Autobiography Book by AreaFada2:
davidnazee:
It’s in recorded history bro, if you research you will find.
The first educated Igbo man, Olaudah Equiano born 1725, wrote in his book about his birth place in present day Anambra state and said they were ruled by the Benin Kingdom and subjects to the Oba of Benin.
Davidnaze, gregyboy

These people say things that confirmed Olaudah's Igboness are correct, but when it comes to those that show Benin sovereignty over Igbo land, they say he was too young to know correctly. grin cheesy

But something interesting came up I think at number 4. It shows what we have always said that just 200 years ago, a single Igbo identity didn't exist. Same in Yorubaland.

Whereas by 1470s, Europeans were already writing about Benin Empire, its powerful king and his dominance over huge parts over that area of West Africa. People can try to hide the truth, but truth is like pregnancy, you cannot hide it forever.

They Yorubas claim that a Benin man told Europeans that there was one powerful "Organe" inland. They believe that story, but not others written by Europeans. So why did the European not go to seek out the so called more powerful "Organe"? grin cheesy

Organe, if such even existed, may well have been a shrine or priest somewhere inside Benin Empire, who knows?

Fact is in what is now Southern Nigeria, there were only small tribal chiefdoms. Both in Igbo & Yorubaland. Only Oyo later captured some other Yoruba chiefdoms. About 240 years after Benin grew as an empire in 1440 AD.

Charles Dicken

Jonathan Swift
WB Yates etc and classic writers in Literature...As a graduate of English Language/ Literature, l read those as part of my course of study..

By the way, my favorite classic literature writer is Thomas Hardy...His ' Mayor of Casterbridge' and '. Tess of D'Urberville' are pure delight..
There are very many wonderful books by great authors.

The more widely you read, the more you discover. Obviously others like T. S. Elliott and James Hardly Chase are up there.

Dickens perfectly captured the essence of Victorian age. His books and activism lead to social changes with respect to child labour and some other social issues of the time.

I feel that books from non-English speaking world are not that appreciated by Nigerians.

There is a wealth of literature from the Francophone, Iberian/Lusophone, Germanic, Slavic, Hellenic and Italian world. Both historical and contemporary.

Is there any study that shows that polygamy does not reduce infidelity?

Read the specific case of poster. If the man had 2 or 3 wives, chances are that one of them will have a higher libido.

The man in the post makes it clear that his playing away is because of his wife denying him sex. This is rather common. Sometimes even as a punishment.
