Do you know that estimates show that Nigeria has a shortage of 17 million housing unit. There is a massive need for housing and real estate. Stop condemning those investing in real estate in the East. They are actually helping out a lot with the housing deficit while providing jobs and helping the economy.

Just building of one house provides many direct and indirect jobs.

The builder of the house will have to buy building materials.

The renter or owner of the house will have to buy household goods.

The workers will spend their payment of their family needs. .

I am sure spyder880 can break down the economic multiplier effect of real estate investment.

Purehuman:
Excellent thought. I see many people saying that Lagos is the reason why Agbara, Ogun state have higher FDI than every other state. It's partly true but the main reason been shrouded in secrecy is the location of Egbin power station. Since they know Egbin will be fully loaded with industries within the cluster, they built another power station in Osun state that will provide power for Osun, Ondo and Ekiti states.

So, where am I driving at, the eastern governors have not thought of creating another power station in Imo state where they have a big pipeline carrying gas to the south south and other power stations in the country.

That is why our manufacturers are complaining bitterly that they can only pay salaries. We need better efforts from these governors and they should push for this.

GBAM!

I'm inclined to believe some of those comments are made in bad faith. Especially with the shortsightedness of some people with village mentality that must condemn developments in another state because they think Enugu, Anamabra,Imo or Ebonyi should be first in something.

The Federal Government continues to build federal housing estates in northern state capitals and NONE in Southeast states. Yet, when our people rally their little resources to build housing estates in the SE, you hear faceless people condemning them. So how will the so called new graduate that wants to base in the SE and find a job or start a business live in a decent 2 bedroom flat at an affordable price if people didn't build it?
Or will they be able to use their first salary to suddenly buy land and build house within one month of working? So, if you read a little through their comments you find it does not make any sense and perhaps the only sense in it is the jealousy of seeing people building their own dream homes while they couldn't build their own. So it's a question of if "I" don't own it, nobody else should.

I get the need to get industries in the SE. But the big part of solving that misery is CAPTIVE POWER. Many Igbo industrialists go to Ogun state because Obasanjo made sure gas pipeline and other sources of power for an industrialist were installed there. We must have industrial cluster and get people to lay gas pipelines or provide dedicated power to the area before meaningful industrial takeoff can be achieved. The FG will not do this for the SE and infact will create numerous obstacles for those trying to do it. It is the State governments that must partner with these companies and use the apparatus of government to get the necessary approvals for the companies to solve the power puzzle.

Enugu Electricity Development Company has been a thorough failure. So using the existing grid to power these new industrial clusters cannot even be contemplated. Therefore, these companies will have to lay their own underground cables from the power stations to the industrial clusters or layouts they want to power.

Finally, since it has been proven that houses can run 100% on renewable rooftop solar power, we should begin to encourage that revolution as the boreholes revolution solved the issue of waiting for ever for government to provide portable water. Ways to manufacture the roof-top solar panels and inverter batteries locally should be massively encouraged by government. Luckily IBETO already has battery manufacturing technology that can be expanded to make bigger home install-able inverters and INNOSON and other industrialists should be encouraged to go into high quality roof-top solar panel manufacturing to solve home and small businesses electricity problems.

Hopefully in the very near future, we can have every house in our cities and villages with these 4-6 solar panels on roof top to supply 100% of their electricity needs than buying fuel guzzling generators. Banks can help finance these for small businesses and they will use money to pay for fuel generators to payback the bank loans. That will be a game changer in helping small businesses..

That's correct.

The question has been..what do people who patronise those hotels built everywhere and those who live in those expensive houses springing up everywhere do for a living? Aligbo needs big investments to support those who make their living, there. I give kudos to Nnewi, Onitsha and Aba axis of things...but more needs to be done. Though governments have signed many MOUs but the progress has been extremely, extremely slow.

For instant this is Onasis luxury Apartment Enugu, which you could have for a bargin of about 70K (£139) per night...with four bedrooms, a mini gym...etc, etc... What is the average income of people living and working in the city?

Truth is that some people are just always filled with envy and bitter feelings towards anyone they perceive are doing better than them. I love that many diaspora Igbos now see investing in Igboland as something worth doing unlike in the past when they ran away like there were evil spirits in Igboland chasing them away from investing in whatever way. If it's houses some like to build, let them build! I prefer people coming to invest in power generation (Captive power) used for just one city or one industrial complex. Build solar panel factories so that houses and businesses can generate power independent of the grid. But for now the people coming in want to build houses to address the housing crisis.

Our people are gradually seeing the need to have something in their home state than having 200% of their investment outside and not even 1% of their investment at home. Therefore, it is good that some are building at home now. At the minimum, it creates jobs for the youths that will sell the cement, the rods, those that will be brick-layers, carpenters, plumbers etc.

With time, those of them with factories will begin to relocate too. The big disadvantage the SE contends with is lack of power allocated on the national grid to SE. It won't even sustain just the factories in Emene, not to mention Onitsha, Aba and other areas. Therefore, there is need to build industrial clusters with mini-power generating outfits to serve them. This is where the various state governments need to be proactive to get licences for these companies and just ask the private companies to build the infrastructure and manage the selling of electricity to industrial complexes in the zones to help them manufacture competitively.

I love how this business center is using solar energy to get 24 hours electricity instead of buying generators and struggling for fuel everyday.

Only 3-4 solar panels can carry an air-conditioning unit and i'm sure he has a refrigerator and fans and light bulbs. It will take almost a Lister generator to carry all those and it will still be very noisy and drinking a lot of diesel everyday.

The idea of every house having it's own electricity supply away from NEPA and generator is an idea that should be embraced for us to provide our own power like we provide boreholes for our own water.

The ONLY reason you accuse Jonathan is that YOU HAVE FAILED WOEFULLY TO GROW THE ECONOMY OR MAKE NIGERIA PROSPEROUS AS YOU PROMISED.

Buhari started his Presidency with incompetence of waiting One year to appoint Ministers. When he finally did, he still appointed former rogue governors and friends as Babachir & Bako et al., to come and steal more.

Then he embarked on extended oversea trips and later hospital admission without allowing Osinbajo to run Nigeria. Today, the litany of bad decisions are showing on everything in Nigeria. To cover up for their crass incompetence,... Blame GEJ or blame Phee Dee Phee. As if that changes the fact that Nigerians have suffered terribly from an incompetent President.

Classy Maxbe hotel Enugu

I like the hotel, except that they could have made a little effort to plant flowers and palm trees around the environment. Interior and furnishing is fantastic. But Furnishing a room alone while the entire environment looks like middle of a desert is just a mindset our people must learn to change.

The trees and the flowers for a conducive environment is JUST AS IMPORTANT as the concrete floors, paint and furnishing.

Ecstasy154:
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has officially declared his intention to run for president in 2019 on the Platform of the Peoples Democratic Party.

Mr Abubakar announced his candidacy in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital on Tuesday.

The former Vice President said his decision to make the announcement in Rivers State because is because he believes Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike represents what he represented in 1998/99 as the live wire of the PDP.

Mr Abubakar who defected from the All Progressives Congress to the PDP in December 2017, was in Rivers with the former Governor of Ogun State, Gbenga Daniel; Senator Abdul Ningi and some other party leaders.

Governor Wike, in reaction, described the former VP as a presidential candidate feared by the APC.

The governor, however, played down his own position in the PDP, insisting that all genuine members of the party are its live wire.

Three years and several legal battles after, the PDP was ousted from power at the federal level, its leaders believe it has what it takes to reclaim power in 2019.

According to Governor Wike, the PDP is not just interested to getting power in 2019, it is out to rescue Nigeria from what he described as a period of maladministration.

The Governor called on other aspirants of the party to do nothing to jeopardise its chances in the 2019 general elections.

Atiku must know there isn't much time left to begin building a national consensus and make Nigeria one country again.

Buhari is banking on the disorganized opposition to win. That would be a massive tragedy for Nigeria!

Another round of self inflicted economic crisis is looming.

Just like when Buhari and CBN stubbornly stuck to N198 exchange rate and almost ruined the economy because the black market had the true exchange rate of N400.

The only way to have a strong currency is to build your manufacturing sector and stop piling debts on the country. Nigeria has done neither.

If you noticed, every house in the picture now has it's own water supply overhead tanks.

Just as the issue of portable water in homes have been solved by the revolution of digging your own boreholes and using water pumps to pump into over head tanks.

Use of Inverters (Household batteries) + Roof-top solar panels = 24 hours constant electricity without buying fuel for generator!

Nigerians must look into making your own power through abundant solar energy we are blessed with, instead of buying generators.
The issue of constant electricity for homes must be solved by revolution of Roof-top solar panels.

Everybody with a private home such as these houses in the picture should strive to invest in roof-top solar panel than buying noisy generators and going through the headache of fueling them every night or staying in darkness because of EEDC palava.

Enugu state government should partner with companies interested in building local solar panel manufacturing factories in Enugu to supply the entire region. These are the types of cutting edge investment the state can help such investors set up smoothly in Enugu to create very good paying jobs.

Solar panels will be the next goldmine for people that are smart enough to find ways to make them very cheap and easily installed on rooftops on buildings.

Once again, the stand alone tank stand and the roof cage mounted water tank base.

They both supply water stored from an overhead tank, aided by the force of gravity. They have some advantages and disadvantages.

The steel mounted tank stand takes some compound space, some people has this fear it will fall, its a little costlier.

The tank base built on top of the house mostly mounted on a decked portion of the roof is cheaper to build and does not consume compound space but can cause big problems for the health of the building if it ever leaks. Leaks can occur as water from broken joints, rain water falling into the decked tank base or even water overfill from pumps.

I like this topic because we already know that in Nigeria, you must provide your own water. Therefore, a solid plan of where to hang tanks and done in a smart way that water can easily flow from gravity to service the building water forcets and toilets is as important today as building the house itself.

I think it is better to hang a medium weight tank on the building about 500 gallons only. If a way of getting up there to fix broken joints or leaking tank is easily factored into design of the building, then mounting the tank (Just 500 gallons) on the building will be a great and smart move.

But, making sure a hole exists in the decking where one can easily climb up there with a small ladder to fix the plumbing issue quickly must be provided if not it's not a good idea to put a leaking tank up there and let it leak for years without doing anything about it.

More importantly, builder should begin to revolutionize Rooftop Solar panels in Nigeria to help solve the electricity crisis in Nigeria and produce clean renewable electricity.

Solar panels will be the next goldmine for factories that will go into local production of high quality panels in Nigeria.

Owerri used to be the garden city with so much trees and flowers along median and both sides of major roads.

I completely oppose the practice of cementing the median of roads. But if it must be done, then both sides of those roads must have trees planted. Building roads without proper trees and vegetation cover makes the whole place look like Sudan.
