In the haste to be negative always, you have tripped on your untied shoelaces. The Blue line terminates at Marina and you are claiming "not even laid a single rail track after the Mile 2 station".

Na Mars or Togo you dey live to have written the bolded?

Bruv, friendly advice. You harm yourself alone with the negativity you seem to be allowing to consume you.

When you are always about negatives, never even once about celebrating positives, don't you understand that is the precursor of a sad and failed life?

He's right. What you posted is the project plan. There are no rail tracks after Mile 2.

Seyi is an ambassador?

The neighbors that failed to act when they saw the maltreatment are no different.

She was Jennifer and not Jenifa.

House Rent In Lagos Fourth Most Expensive In Africa...when everyone wants to live in lekki and it's environs. There are cheap accommodations in other parts of Lagos that beats lekki hands down i.e good clean water, clean fresh air, cheap, affordable rent money for spacious, gorgeous apartments, no floods during rainy seasons etc

Please can you mention the areas?

What value would the information add to you OP as people's experiences differ.

Dollar account is domiciliary account.

OP where's the source of your info?

Why did the mod move to FP without confirming the information.

Yoruba teacher will also be a maid?

Wishing him the best in his future endeavors.

What of the man who saw that she's mentally unstable and went ahead to impregnate her without caring about the product of the love making and how the child would be raised.

ProudlyLagos:
yes funding was an issue and that was one of the reasons construction didn’t start on time……constructing a light rail project is capital intensive for a sub national to undertake and some countries can’t even afford it…..so I just marvel when some ignorant people come online and make criticism without having the knowledge or right information

There are also many factors that slowed down the progress, the terrain of the area which some part are swampy, they also needed pay compensation for property owners because some properties have to give way, then also funding…..after it was started by fashola, ambode didnt fund the project through his tenure which was one the reasons he was removed…..so there are a lot of factors but thank God work is almost completed on the mile to Okoko corridor and it will be completed next year.

The pace at which they're going, you're sure it'll be completed next year?

I hope you commute that route to say this as Ojo people are in court for their properties not to be demolished to give way for the project.

ProudlyLagos:
muumu, so your br@in couldn’t process that when you keep comparing Lagos, a state with other Africa countries? Even when I made it clear that it was an achievement for a sub national to execute such an ambitious project……mention any sub national/ state who have undertaken such a project in Africa? you clowns always through logic out the window when your criticism is base on hate and not logic

Where was funding ever an issue for the Lagos light rail project?

Do we celebrate inefficiency because it's a sub-national doing the project?

We appreciate the work but it could have been faster as 20 years wqs too long and why haven't they commenced on getting it to Okokomaiko?

She didn't do her due diligence.

OP, the body of the post said she was lamenting the high cost in Lagos bur the video is Benin

Wike has settled the judiciary for life. We shouldn't be surprised.

Baba and political prophesy. More of speculation than the accuracy that comes with prophesy.

Yes, I have experience in animal husbandry.

Well I'm interested how do I contact you.

He already asked that you send him a PM.

People saying his rent is too high, he may have been paying about 600k if it's Lagos but the landlord has increased the rent. The trade off to keep the apartment is the lesser tfare to work.

If he moves farther for a cheaper apartment, the transportation budget would double or triple if care isn't taken especially if he resides in Lagos.

5 years old househelp, the birth parents should be arrested too.

Eastern governors should have laws that criminalize child labour for a start.

They now recruit teenagers for bombing. Why isn't there a state of emergency in these states that are ravaged with terrorism till date?

lekkie073:
bros, there is no area in Lagos state where majority are strruggl;ing to feed...in the shacks of makoko, otto, and ajegunle, you would see many residents installing dstv and doing premium subscription monthly. forget the appearances of some places that look like slum in Lagos, residents there are financially stable

DSTV installation is a yardstick of financial stability in Lagos. Hhmm!

My compound in Lagos has DSTV dish littered on the building but I know it's only the landlady that subscribes in the compound of 5 tenants.

I hope you don't plan to become a parent tomorrow.

If you do, you ought to be taking conscious steps for the future you want for your children and not lamenting at every given opportunity.

Why do I think you wouldn't have been able to manage success if the connection from them existed based on your antecedents here.

Guest2008:
I moved to Surulere few years ago.. I was initially squatting with someone before I got a place.
The first place I got was at odejayi crescent, an agent took me to the Landlord knowing fully well the man is not reliable. The house was under renovation and he claimed everything will me set in 2weeks max.. 2 weeks became 5months and the man kept on promising, I started asking for refund 2 months after but there's never a positive response I got frustrated and had to involve the service of a lawyer I knew to get 90% of my money..

The second place was at Cole, a supposed self con in a very old building which I desperately moved into thinking I would be able to manage.. I did the little I could to make the apartment livable for me even though it was generally a terrible place. A self con where I will have to leave my room to go to the kitchen and the the toilet and people outside can see me moving around.. I was managing until it started to rain, rain soaked the walls of my apartment making the painting pull off the wall, water drip into my apartment uncontrollably , my supposed kitchen which was basically the corridor to the toilet would be filled with water.. I later noticed the soakaway pipe was just directly by my window and many other complaints like the person up bathing and the water drips in front of my room and soak up the ceiling. I kept complaining to the caretaker and landlord, nothing was done about it and to worsen the whole thing, I saw a scorpion creep into my room and it was that day I knew I wouldn't even complete 1yr in that apartment. I moved out and went back to my family house at Abaranje and continued the stress to work..

One year ago, I got an apartment that I really like and I like it even more because it's a new building and I'm the first to occupy it.. I paid my rent, service charge, agency and commission as I should..
I'm about to renew now and I'm just realising my apartment is on lease and the agent in charge said I am her tenant and I should come and formally buy her form and pay her another agreement fee or I should move out.

Sometimes, I wonder if these agents and Landlords have conscience at all

Let's not even talk about the old buildings doubling their rent and competing with new buildings and then the greedy agents and Landlords dishing out quit notice just to get another agency/commission fee

What an experience. How sad 😔

Ovieemmanuel:
then whats the % of those people that have those kind of jobs in lagos? Omo how una dey do am? Abi na shared apartments?

The % of people wouldn't be many.

I'm currently living with a relative. People in my circle rent and live alone.

Ovieemmanuel:
fact. You should know some oil company workers earn that range. Lagos rent is killing sha.

I aak myself, what's my annual savings and then what's my rent budget?
If I'm paying millions in rent, I'd not have any money saved for investment in self and assets acquisition.

Oil workers earn higher than bankers on an average.

Ovieemmanuel:
bankers?? Even salary of 600k a month can not stay in those areas.

EDs, GH, AGMs can afford to stay there.

600k are junior bankers. BAs and ABOs. I should have said senior bankers.

Ovieemmanuel:
which people dey pay this rent?

Remote workers, bankers, oil and gas workers, business owners....

wisdomkid:
Shows why majority of men do not believe Women have the same brain as men. You can CLEARLY see the options, and ability to CHOOSE. You were given a CHOICE, not forced, coerced, etc. But given the full choice to choose. But no, let me play the victim card. Shame on your education and ability to think.

You're too "wise" to see where I stated her desiring marriage later.

Aren't there reverend fathers who later choose to leave celibacy and get married?

You must insult to prove your point and you call yourself "wisdom.... at least kids aren't classified as wise.

Amumaigwe:
Where are they?

Ojugo

Then she becomes a single mother who'll be labeled by NL boys as a bad person when she later desires marriage in the long run.

The OP is at liberty to be a baby papa and would be labeled a "good man" that knows what he wants.


What an irony of the society we live in.

sweetkev:
Dey play. No good single mothers out there.

The way people say no jobs without connection out there but are there good jobs with connection likewise there are good single mothers out there.

pasol4real:
What exactly is the mistake here? Having sex or getting pregnant?

Getting pregnant out of wedlock.
