They were not just friends but living together in the same house. Think of it. Someone that can live in your house and share food with you for 9 months and be planning to leave the country without telling you. All that time you guys are seated watching BBA and EPL he has his laptop on his legs quietly submitting visa applications.

That kind of person might not call you for 10 years sef once he leaves. The paranoia excuse will explain that as well. I am not saying that the guy that japa is right or wrong. I am saying that i am surprised that the friend in Nigeria is surprised. The writing was already on the wall.
I guess he just wasn't paying too much attention to it.

Does the govt approve or allow these royal families to develop land
The families don't develop the lands, they hold it and sell it as they so please.

It is now ur own duty to obtain government's approval if u want to develop those lands u bought from the family.

3 years is a whole lot of time to ghost person wey u commot from him house go enter plane. That is just the plain truth.

The red flag wasn't him not calling him for 3 years. The red flag was much earlier when he informed him of his travel only the night before leaving the country.
The guy might want to overlook it on the premise that most of us Africans are paranoid and would hide our travelling plans till it was almost too late.

One of my friends, we went for his wedding engagement on Sunday and by Monday, the wife he engaged travelled to Canada; not for once did he even mention to us the wife was billed to travel anytime soon. Na when I call am on Monday he told me he was at the airport seeing his wife off; I was surprised but I just shrugged it off that it was just normal naija paranoia thingy.

So maybe the guy didn't read too much into the guy informing him late about his traveling plans, but the biggest mess up was not checking up on him even after spending years abroad.

What do you mean by community owned(omo onile) grin grin
Most of those lands dem Adron and PWAN sell to people as part of their estates, they do buy it from land owning families/royal families in the host communities. For example most of the people who built around Ikate/Elegushi bought their lands originally from the Elegushi Royal family.

Recently I saw a video of a community in Oyo state protesting against Adron Homes, they said he's claiming to have bought a part of their community but they are denying selling to him. They said he has promised to come with soldiers and policemen to falsefully take possession despite court order pronouncing both parties maintain status quo till the case is heard in court.

That kind land now, Adron will go ahead to sell it after some time and years later if a son of that community becomes governor or deputy governor, he will use state power to get the land back for his people. By then a lot of people will cry.

Omo, this country ehn.....

Call a spade a spade.

Three years is too long not to bother to check upon the person that house you for 9 good months,especially in one of the most difficult phase of your life.

I don't know how it is in the abroad,but just like everywhere else,the first year is always very difficult unless you've got rich family.

But even in the midst of all this,not to be able to sacrifice 5mins of an entire 3years just to explain how things are to the one who gave you shelter for 9mins is pure ungratefulness not entitlement as you have it.

Go through the original tweet and see how people have been narrating similar experiences and see how some human beings don't deserve to be shown any sympathy no matter how touching their story might be.
You are right. Except the guy ended up in prison when he landed abroad, he has no reason not to have checked up on his guy after 3 years of travelling. Even if abroad rough for am, at least he should put call through to his G that was there for him when nobody else was.

I actually want to believe many of those estates are individuals trying to be sharp and defraud people

You will hear things like its better to buy now that it doesnt have governors consent, once governors consent comes out the price with triple

Land with govt papers are usually sold for a premium, even if you go to the property section of Nairaland you see the arguments regularly, Those with gov consent advertize with it as an added value and some will tell you that you can buy for a lower price and "arrange gov consent"

https://www.nairaland.com/5423359/obtaining-governors-consent-land-mandatory

There are many people enjoying their property without this gov consent, but if na your side them open eye for, then goodluck

Land sale is where you meet some of the most dubious people in Nigeria
Most of the lands/properties currently being sold don't have C of O/Governor's consent.

One bros that works as an agent for these real estate companies told me recently that getting governor's consent is actually quite expensive, it cost millions in Lagos state. He said most of the real estate being sold don't have it because the cost implication on the vendors is not reflected in some of the prices they quote.

I have a feeling that for government to come out boldly and make this claim; they know a whole lot of the companies involved may have settled the regulators to overlook them, but they still don't have the requisite documents that will protect the property from government's action in the future.

Adron Homes i am sure won't be foolish not to have valid documents before selling to people
Don't be so sure. Don't make bold statements on behalf of those real estate companies, u will be disappointed if government actually prove they didn't authorize approval of the estates and the estate developers can't provide the documents they obtained from government that bears the state government's logo.

What I've come to learn is that anything can happen in this Nigeria.

The best thing is to wait and see how this plays out; let's see if the concerned estates will be able to prove their case

You think that's possible?
Like people build without government approval
Well, if Government is saying they don't have approval shebi it is their word against the owners of the estate ?

I guess those that have approval will bring out their approval now that the government is alleging they didn't give them approval na.

[color=royalblue]75% of those estates will not pass the Regularization stage.

I went to Ijebuode last week, and I passed through Epe. All the land don turn Estate.

If everybody is buying lands for residential purposes, what happens when Industrial plans and projects come up?

Abi should an industrial estate that deal with toxic chemicals be situated in a residential estate?[/color]
A lot of people will cry when the government eventually decides to go after the estates that don't pass the regularization process.

A lot of real estate companies have sprung up in the last few years laying claim to ownership of several estates along that axis. I have always had my doubt about how all of them could be genuine and duly approved. The way their marketers will swear by all the gods they can think of in a bid to convince u ; they would even claim the estate has a "global C of O".

We might say the government waited for too long to come out with this, but still it is better late than later. At least now that the government is putting this out, those that are yet to start development on the land will put a hold to any of such plans. It is better losing the virgin land now than losing the land and whatever structure they erect few years to come when such property owner may be retired and not have any income hustle another apartment.

[color=royalblue]Lagos state has released a list of 176 Illegal estates in Lagos.

99% are domiciled in Eti-Osa and Ibeju Lekki.

Anambra also released a list too.

I think states should start saving people by doing so. Before Real Estate agents go use HBP, deplete the population of Nigeria [/color]
I just saw the list now, even Adron Homes wey dey do advert everywhere sef, they didn't regularize their estate approval with the ministry. Yet, na the same Adron dey waste money dey sign influencers everywhere.

All those land wey people don buy for Lekki-Epe expressway na im full the list o.

Peter Obi made his one-term declaration less than 9 hours ago.

He's ticked so many boxes like relative prudent management of our common patrimony.

It's been 7 years since 2025 when he came to national politics. An EFCC case still hasn't been brought against him.


No, he's not a saint. I wouldn't vote a saint because no human is without blemish.

But Peter Obi is humane - he's kind, he's thoughtful like Osinbajo and has provenly believed in enthroning human rights like Fayemi.

You might not like the movement which his candidacy banks on. I've stated my reservation about the movement.

Pen it down to passion. Passion of young Nigerians yearning to see Nigeria get better.

Maybe their utterances hurt you. But the man himself hasn't hurt you. He hasn't hurt your pockets too or sided with those who cage you and yours.

2027 is less than two years from now.

If you love Nigeria or at least love your relatives in Nigeria; if the plight of Nigerians holds more significance for banter; if Nigeria goes beyond agenda on Nairaland...

Please vote Obi. And if you won't, please do not spread falsehood against him. There are no medals for being an impediment against progress.

May a better Nigeria become POssible.

The Chagoury family will always be grateful to Nigeria as a country ; the gift that keeps giving.

I honestly don’t care about anyone’s tribe, competence is what matters to me. That girl is clearly an Igbo girl who’s been ranting about Yorubas and Northerners for a while now. I didn’t want to bring it up initially, she was trying to gaslight people by bringing up other tribes that have never ruled, while conveniently ignoring the fact that her own tribe has produced a president before.

My point was simple she belongs to one of the major tribes, so what’s with all the complaining? Those major tribes have benefited the most in this country.

To be honest, I didn’t notice the part where she mentioned the other tribes until now, I stopped reading when she started with the North and West narrative. I only went back after you brought it up.

As for your last line, we all know what we’re doing. If you want to work for Tinubu again, that’s your personal decision. Good luck with it.
You are the one that has continually state that Ur finances is tied to Atiku being the president ; I am neither a political jobman neither do I have my next meal tied to a politician's success at the polls.

I'm sure if Atiku loses as usual in 2027 u will have enough reasons to wail louder than before.
