Politics › Re: Why Northern Elites Supports Bandits Operations by Hightablevoice2: 4:45pm On Nov 26, 2025
OneCandleAway:
To me they don't feed the nation because we buy the food crops. It's not like crude oil that is sold and shared to each state. Or vat that is shared round. If the government was buying their food crops from them then selling at subsidized rate to the rest of us that's when you can say they feed the nation. Some of them are into farming as occupation just as some of us down south are into other businesses.
Of course the south buys it.. it's not for free we all know that. Even they know that but production is also a leverage and the ones above them play the card.. If you could remember when the present administration said all state should be taxing and generating funds for themselves, what did the north say, the policy is to stiffing the north because they understand that without the south they can't function and they need to tell their people that they are in control of Nigeria so they can be loyal to that idea.. An average northerner doesn't really care about Nigeria, it's northerner ideology first.. Do you see them dragging businesses with the south, nah. They don't care about all that.. Northern ideology overshadows all that because the only way their elite can control their people and keep them in play in Nigeria is to let them understand you will be well taken care of within the system that exist, which is a concrete lie because we see.. but they have to hold them under as a leverage that should in case the South in this case wants to leave them in the ditch, which heaven forgives me out of their own ignorance have created for themselves, that they are willing to drag the country back.. South South, South East and South in general what's one thing they are agitating for, better infrastructure, better school, better trade routes, ease access to international market and a better living.. you see north agitate for ham? Nope. Because the Rankadedes make them understand all those things are vanity and what matters most is the preservation of your identity as a northerner and they do their best to back it up with religious beliefs.. As Southerners, it is best to understand who the real obstruction and obstacle is.. until southerners do, they are always going to be distracted with all this distractions the north are creating.. since OBJ their own person left office it's been turmoil for Nigeria. From Boko Haram bombings, to kidnapping, to Banditry, to all sort of atrocities, including christians killings even on Christmas .. southerners are peaceful, but they are not that peaceful, they just like peace. And they need to understand what the north is, and what those Babas are up to. The only regret a southerner faces is they keep letting it slid. If they show Nigeria as country in Al-Jazeera, you will be ashamed. But it's the north they are showing not Nigeria. And it's disgusting and disgraceful

But why are the north like this. Theybarely contribution anything to the national purse. Even theirineral resources is being stolen while the south generated all the income. At least give us peace let's be working since we are sharing the money with you. Seems the Fulani want to keep lording over the hausa hence they deprive their kids of education and development. With all the rich people there, they cant even come up with a foundation to educate the children.
Now you are getting the gist.. it's not like their aren't educated Northerners or enlightened ones, but the thing is the majority isn't on that path.. self freedom for self actualization or dream is not that permitted or let me say it's not well spread as it should be.. in terms of contribution, they do contribute, feeding the nation for one, but the reality is how many of them benefits from this, statically just a few people at the top of their social ladder, compared to the south where every family and I mean at least one person in every family steps out to make a better living for his or herself and the family.. in the north it's not like that.. it's one huge family, even your own mother isn't that much of a priority compared to the rankadedes above you. So it's easy to control, a family, clan, sect, community and In a way an entire people. There's no justifications for what they are trying to impose on the south but in a way they don't care about all that.. na just go and that's it.. they practice the ideology in plain sight.. go to anywhere called Sabo. Observe deeply the mechanism that makes it function then you understand the north a little bit and what motivates them and what doesn't

He wants the northern leaders to command their people to vote for him, that's why he is lenient with them. If course there's no southerner that doesn't know how to treat the Bleep up of these northern terrorists. But the greed for second term is what makes the president spinless. And now the north knows that if he wins, he will be vindictive and won't care anymore and deal with them. I don't understand maybe they are trying to cashout as large as they can with these new kidnapping surge.
Tinubu is a puppet master first that's one thing you have to understand.. in a country like Nigeria, he understands surely has shown the north that their autonomous voice over how Nigeria should be governed is dead.. hence the consequences.. the north has access to their people but he also knows the north can't and will never do it alone without the south. So in a way, the ones that are constituting this nuisances in the name and aim to disturb and distabilize the Nigeria spirit will soon meet their end come the next phase of nation shaping. The north is scared right now actually, but the south too as it is, it's very vulnerable to their tactics.. If the present VP isn't taken it serious that your own people are disturbing the country, shouldn't that say something? .. in a way Tinubu and the south are in a bind, the north wants someone like Obj who obliges with them and not try to dictate terms to them. Tinubu on the other hand dictate terms to them, so it's boils down to the real idea how do you fight back.m scatter everything for everyone

From free Nnamdi kanu Noise.. to now ICC. The only person that made sense was that guy above who said , he should just chill and look for political solution because as it is, he is done for.. But say 20-30 years won't pass over him first, he should rule that one out.
As for people getting too emotional about this issue of his, they keep reminding you the world and not just Nigeria doesn't operate on emotional rollercoaster. You need facts, heavy back ups, access to resources, control of resources, and a huge number of dedicated loyalist and not sympathizers, all Kanu had and still has a huge sympathizers even in the east.. and a small amount of loyalist. As he is, for now make he relax for the next 20-30years.. only solution in sight, I will say again it's what that guy said earlier .. find a political solution
Nairaland General › Re: An Open Warning Letter To Seun And All Moderators by Hightablevoice2: 8:03am On Nov 26, 2025
Caspertech:
Good morning y'all, I have been watching and observing the constant defamation of a certain individual on this forum who has created multiple accounts to post me claiming I scammed him yet no single evidence to back up his claim has been made, he has even gone ahead to post my pictures and details with an everyday quoting, this particular individual the last account I could recall his current active on is DSS76, he has multiple accounts, this individual goes by the name Afeez Dawudu Babatunde, an individual I once worked for back 2021 who I developed a streaming live tv app for, which didn't turn out good between him and google due to constant reports and suspensions, this also affected me because mine was affiliated as the sole service provider which led to me losing my google developer console account and an app worth over ₦10,000,000 naira in valuation, I nearly lost my mind due to the pain I went through, it was like a whole life labour gone because of a constant mistake made by this said individual, the whole transactions that occurred between me and Mr Afeez Dawudu Babatunde were service rendered transactions with all receipts still handy and ready to be submitted to the Nigerian police very soon, all communications and discussion are still very much intact on my backup email I bless God I never deleted any, this same individual has gone to report all my domains and hosting to my service provider that made one of my website to be taken down, after consideration I decided to still let go and activate the second one which he still went again to report but I stood my ground and said enough is enough, after much deliberations and documents signing my service was pardoned, which then triggered him to come to nairaland to start posting my details, I have been advised to take legal actions but I have thought how would I sue such a person it's a waste of time the best is to report to the police, I plan to report to DCP Oliver ezirim who happens to be someone I am close too very well, enough is enough, the painful part is that nairaland has become a forum where one can just come online and post anything without it properly moderated and questions asked for verification.

It's high time the Seun looks into this matter before I proceed with the police report.
I don't think this has anything to do with the site. If you are being defamed and know for a fact that you operated within the white lane of the transaction.. Take up the action to defend your brand. I don't think public opinion is required. Because he also obviously feels you did him wrong and the only forward way is to report to appropriate dispute body that will handle it. Nairaland is a platform not a court

It's more like.. I be Jagaban, should I dismiss this meeting and deal with these people on my terms and just kill as many people as possible.. but I have to be diplomatic.. and work through all this bureaucracy.. but come to think of it, I should have seen this coming.

I just dealt with coup issue and now this people again.. all na still money, and I don't wish to give them nothing but I have to, running a country is not like running my own affairs.. but I am a politician, this too shall pass but I have to deal with this, even as minimal as I can.. 2027 of this nonsense again, but my business isn't done yet.. still have deals to secure. And there's this Nnamdi kanu issue guy starting underground.. I think I understand abacha everyday I seat through meetings and briefings.. even Trump of all people, why isn't he minding his business. And that Chinese guy, I don't trust him one bit, but he has money and Nigeria needs money plus me too I also need to secure my place..

I don't understand why people are taking Trump so serious.. if a serious US president had made that particular statement, well not even that statement but show concern over the killings of christians in the northern part of Nigeria, it will be very well appreciate to at least see what could be done about it.. but Trump is just a noise maker, he can't do shit and wouldn't even know how to coordinate a successful battle, let alone an operation like stamping out insurgency in that part of the country.. if he wants assist the people who are handling the issue.. he can, but he should shut his mouth up about invading Nigeria.. that's just as stupid as saying he wants to invade Canada like he said few months ago

pocohantas:
It is embarrassing a lawmaker is entangled in this mess. Yet he has been made the hero of polygamy. A man that cannot keep his wives without abuse of power, intimidation and lies. Every wife that tries to leave, he accuses her of drug abuse and intimidates her into returning. Of all the issues in Nigeria, he went on air to be discussing how he marries plenty wives. Is it by force to marry? He should leave this small girl alone and marry another one.

You are still a young girl, Gina and the deed has been done. Your mum and siblings have to stand by you through the storm. I will advise you move in silence henceforth. They do not want to see their wives feed or survive outside them. So focus on your craft that gives you money and leave posting of houses/private jet. You will be fine.

Any man who is intolerable of drugs or some kind of attitude will see why this man was saying in the previous video that she Regina talks to her like he is not her father while the man was heard saying but I am your husband. That statement is a clear indication that she is doing something he can't tolerate and the girl doesn't want to be controlled about her lifestyle. It's a little bit clear that it's a matter of lifestyle now.. any other thing, is just a catalyst to other issues. The major point is, the man wanted a trophy wife that will act like a queen, but acting a queen and being a queen are two different things.. Last last, royalty is inbuilt, you can not buy it
Family › Re: My Friend's Wife Walks Out Of Their Marriage Just 2 Weeks After A ₦37m Wedding by Hightablevoice2: 6:49pm On Oct 19, 2025
immortalcrown:
Telling us why the marriage ended is more important than telling us the cost of the wedding. The cost of the wedding is never the reason the marriage ended.

Wedding reception quality does not determine marriage quality.

The poorest marriage can begin with the richest wedding reception, while the richest marriage can begin with the poorest wedding reception.

A poor marriage can begin with a poor wedding reception, and a rich marriage can as well begin with a rich wedding reception.

I keep using "Wedding reception", not just "wedding", because what is expensive is not wedding itself but the reception that follows the wedding.

Wedding reception is about public entertainment, not about the state of the marriage. Entertain the public well if you can afford to. But, don't use the entertainment to predict your marriage.
With all due respect.. please shut the hell up

Politics › Re: The Handshake That Was Meant To Prevent The Civil War- Picture by Hightablevoice2: 11:16am On Oct 17, 2025
What is the point of all this again.. Nigeria is a country as a whole now.. History should be celebrated but with purposeful and positive reinforcement for future generations.

While people or factions can have their differences in opinion about the outcome of this whole issue, it is without a doubt and glaring and as far as history recalled it, a General started what he couldn't finish. He has never been the only none in history. And even extensively when people offered to help at least achieve that aim of his, his camps position was indecisive. They wanted it all to themselves because they see themselves as being able to. As gallant as it may be, gallantry alone is not a personalized attribute. We are all gallant in our own ways. And there's more to winning a war, not a battle but a war than gallantry...

Even with restrain in my own opinion and particularly saying it is a faulty thing to hold on to one self esteem but still it displayed how shrewd the agenda for Biafra was. Which was simply to step on everything and everyone. And to prove they can do it all by themselves. A man with no friend is a ghost and same goes for all his ideas, strength and courage no matter how grand.

And as far as history will remember it, if and when the day does comes that Nigeria as a nation stands in absolute unity and shines more brighter than it is at its current trajectory, General Gowon will always be the one to be revered, against the odd as the leader who held onto the founding fathers dream in keeping Nigeria as a whole irregardless of the insurmountable task dawned on him at that early age of his life. Keeping a country together at all cost. Whatever it takes because of future benefits for generations to come. That is the ultimate sacrifice. Even though admittedly It's hard to see now as living Nigerian, but that touch remains and still shines brighter as an indisolvable and an indivisible sovereign state. But that is the essence of it. Our generation might not unite but surely we have produced a united generation, a generation with the Nigerian identity. And they are flying and shining. How soon will that prophesy come to pass now that the sacrifices and labors of our heroes past hasn't been in vain.

As for now, let the Biafra Sun set in peace and let the Nigeria Sun keep on rising in strength. A war was fought to keep us together as a nation. It's that simple. And as for today, I can say that it is not the whole eastern state that are still clamouring for secession but rather, only the rebels living in those states.

His upbringing and area he grew up contributed to this barbaric behaviour and that pic is a testament to this

yes he's passionate about his job but he went too far this time and i think he also deliberately kicked the other player before grabbing this guy by the neck, that was a red card offence and the FA should also fine him and Gala

let judge Dangote base on existing businesses.. how are the workers treated, are worker in dangote cement texting SOS to labour union every month end

The whole essence of unionism is to mitigate unjust treatment, so where there is none of what use is union ... union go just dey chop free dues

on every truck i heard Nupeng collect 100k or is it 1m ... that is why they are fighting Dangote
Official report is what you know. With so many leaks it's way more than that. If we want to continue being the powerhouse in Africa, I know for a fact this is not the right way.

At least let the ground solid properly, but not this time that it's still a very cut throat atmosphere where other African countries, arabs, and them Europeans Plants are hell bent and wanting to take down a huge entity like DG.. Nupeng idealism and initiative was for protection based on projections, but this is just nonsense. Dangote group has always been a very reasonable entity with their work force. And they do listen..but with this whole union thing.. it is a definite loose win situation. Even though in hindsight this is good at least they are showing their card and will be a lesson and case study for other industry. But what about years from now.. unnecessary strikes and demands.. Watch out...union is coming back again... What they did to the education sector will be a child play.. and they will keep pushing, but at whose detrimental effect.. and at the end of the day dragging us back or in a way not allowing us to move seamlessly. If they win this battle... Nigerians should just start holding their breath under the mud.. because it will get ugly.. as in really really ugly at that.

But Dangote pays, and they look after their employees very well in terms of their packages.. it make no sense trying to unionize when they organization itself on it's own takes very good care of it's people.. majority of responsible corporate heads will act the same way if the shoe falls on their laps..

Unionism even though has its benefits but it's more glaring that it's like a club whose main intentions has always been a way to wield unnecessary power over an organization that treats you right to start with. It is a shallow move. And any reasonable organic corporate body warns against it... But either way, they will either get a deal with this or perish. Unionism is a big no no in a growing economy... And I think this will even be a good incentive for employers to have a good clause before recruitment in their contract or company policy..

motymop:
Which wealth did Mr Eazi actually create? I’m yet to see it.

He made a few local hits but never truly went international. Creatively, he was midlevel at best. His parents were middle class and there’s no proof his father left him any fortune.

Some bloggers claim he sold a company to Apple for $1B but a quick check on Techpoint shows that’s false. They also claim he owns a betting company not true, he was just a promoter.

Even the wedding hype is exaggerated. Did he really have a $14M wedding? Highly unlikely. If he did, where are the receipts?

At the end of the day, believe blogs at your own risk. Stop hyping people just because you like them.
I do not know much about figures but I do know for a fact that Easy has always been a silent mover. In Ghana, did you know he was a show promoter while he was schooling there and moving with their industry heavy weights.. Ghana millionaires are Nigeria billionaires. Even his name Easy, is a gesture on the fact that he does things so low-key and easily that they crested him Mr Eazy. That was before he decided to branch into music. He is cut from the same cloth as Asika. Those just move in different ways that you can't deny their wealth if they truly want to flaunt it. That's all I know
Politics › Re: Igbos Developed Asaba? Asaba Is An Igbo City! by Hightablevoice2: 1:00pm On Sep 04, 2025
Nayturalistic:
Gaslighting, manipulation, hypocrisy, and the real tribalism, No tribe in this entity called Nigeria has all these traits more than the Igbos. This is the bitter truth.

That is why it is always important to critically note and follow history. When Ahmadu Bello said and I quote, "we the northerners are not alive to their responsibilities", I felt that in my bone. Same way I also felt that the North were being selfish or were just trying to exercise their dominance in the Nigerian political realm. Little did I know that he and the foremost Northerners had seen the Igbos for what they truly are.

This renaming of streets of a thing that the Westerners are now up to, is probably the most subtle thing they'll ever do to project back their dominance over their lands and protection of their heritage and culture, at the very least. This Eastern folks should really be ready for much more and I repeat, there is nothing that will happen to them that they haven't done to others.

Now to my main point and issue I have with these folks- tribalism. This word has been a word each of them have mastered well, but without understanding what it truly means to be tribalistic. The Igbos are the typical pots that call the kettle black and it is unfortunate that they have no one to ever call them to order and set them on the right path. If the last election is anything to go by, the Igbos exhibited severe tribalism and the statistics of the votes will always prove this. All in the bid to have their kinsmen in power, they are ready to even turn on their mothers. Not to mention what the international community thinks about them. And the stewpid Biafra they all keep clamoring for, someone needs to educate these folks that the Yorubas are not their obstacles as to attaining that. Infact, if this country is divided today, the Yorubas stand to be the biggest gainers and I am sure the politically informed ones will concur.

But as it is, and from now on, the Yorubas have assimilated and digested Ahmadu Bellos statement of 1960 and will now become dead to their responsibilities. No matter what. No one ever hated them, but the hatred embedded in them from childbirth will never ever allow them to see the good in other tribes. Yoruba this, Yoruba that, and yet they refuse to leave a region where they feel "threatened".

In conclusion, I have started a book on these Eastern neighbors of ours and this book is intended to go as viral as possible. We will only respect those who respects us. You do not get to be in our region (all because the constitution allows it), and still be breeding so much hatred towards us, saying all sorts to the same people who have always wanted the best for you. From now on, we will put off the tags of being "accommodating" and proudly wear the garments of being "buygots", until you people learn that the Yorubas have never been your enemy and you start showing the much expected respect.
You are making one mistake in this assumption of yours. I use to think like that before and then I stopped and looked at it from another angle. See the thing is, it's not that igbos are tribalistic or whatever, the real thing is Igbos like Arabs don't really have much respect for anything nor anyone for that long no matter what as long as you are sensed as an opposing idea to whatever it is an average Igbo man or woman may have going on at any given time. Even that line of sight doesn't extend beyond their own self.. as in person to person.. it just so happens it becomes a general trait that their culture allows. That's why it is easy to disregard anyone, organization, culture or sect that doesn't align with any of their individual benefit. Same goes with respect. It doesn't extend even to pillar symbols of respect in any human being which in this case parents. It's not unusual for an Igbo to be disrespectful towards even their own elders and kinsmen. So no it's not tribalistic, it's just they really don't give a shit about people who are not in line with their goal that much. Simple as that

The math hasn't add up yet.. at least publicly. It's 2025, and 2027 in political timeline is a long time to be on the wrong side of the ring for any backers either from pdp camp or the so called coalition unit. Interest will have to be protected first, and in Nigeria political climate that's number one priority and not the people or the country's interest..

Oga Joe running is not the problem, him loosing under any umbrella he may step out from is their biggest concern. If he looses, Nigeria becomes a one party state automatically, maybe not on paper but politically speaking, which in a way is Tinubu's end goal. Apc continues their domination..

The real threat is, who are Jonathan's friends.. and who benefits the most. If the North which have been playing this card of opposition to create a better opportunity for their camp doesn't see a strong ally margin with Jonathan, it is a loose loose, and if they reluctantly support Tinubu while Shettima remains in the shadow as he has been doing compared to osinbajo with Buhari they may have a strong candidate in him compared to Atiku which they consider to some extent unpredictable and very much filled with animosity towards some Northern elites.

The real game is will the Ibos which Tinubu has been doing all he can to castrate and elevate at the same time be a huge difference, and more than all will yoruba elites for the sake of freedom throw him under the bus.

Any miscalculated move for all the moving part will be a detrimental one. And by the way.. Obi on the other hand now has a strong position as an independent candidate. Not to win the race though but to divert a lot of votes for either camp.. So the game begins. But as said earlier, politically 2027 is an eternity to wreck enough havoc considering Tinubu's style of game play

Israel is never going to allow any of it's close neighbors possess nuclear weapons, back in the 1980s they destroyed Iraq's nuclear program, a program that was financed by France. During the Iraq Iran war, Iraq were being funded by the western powers, including China and Soviet Union, Israel was doing the opposite, helping Iran. They took the opportunity to negotiate for Jews who were living in Iran to return to Israel.

1972,During the Munich summer Olympics terrorist attack, 9 Israeli athletes were kidnapped, 2 were killed by the Palestinian Militant Organization, Israel asked permission from West Germany to rescue their citizens, Germany were claiming experts and refused the offer. During the rescue attempt headed by West Germany, all 9 hostages were killed.
Israel hunted down each one of the kidnappers and killed them.

Isreal vowed never to allow such a thing happen again, so in 1976 When the PLO hijacked a plane full of Israeli citizens, flew it to Uganda. Idi Amin refused handing over the hijackers nor the passengers. Israel planned a secret mission, flew soldiers into Uganda, killed all the hijackers and left with all hostages. Idi Ami killed one of the hostages in retaliation, a old woman that was taken to the hospital before the rescue mission flew in. Israel still negotiated to get her body.

Fun fact, the person that led the mission was Yonathan Netanyahu, the elder brother to Benjamin Netanyahu the current prime Minister. He died in the operation.

Hate Israel all you want, but those guys are going to shed blood before they allow one Jew die in captive any where in the world.
So the mission statement is never leave a Jew behind, protect all Jews at all cost. But as a deterrent they have inevitably create a monsterism mindset within the Arab nations. To be factfual, all right is reserved to defend and protect one's citizen but at what cost. The counter productiveness of such ideas will always loom over that state called isreal. Until they are willing to accept, they are not special and with a firm commitment that they can coexist with their neighbors, their unquenchable thirst for peace will always be threatened. Which in some way lead to them being aggressive towards a group of people based on their idea that those people wants to harm them. It is true, but so is law of cause and effect. If isreal is not a tyrannical state, if they only seek legitimacy, why wouldn't they allow their neighbors be. They also have the right to harm and defend themselves

The Nigerian Police Force does need a strong overhead and a sincere one at that. But in a country where criminals are almost all the time immune to law enforcement based on leniency due to bribery. You can only go far as you are able. Nonetheless, the guy that said they need to recruit more people is also right. But who wants join the police, do the proper police work and earn meager salary that can't even take care of a 200 level undergrad.

Unfortunately, most women of nowadays
don't know how to cook .



You expect a man brought up on oha, gbegiri,
ogbono and edikang-ikong, with pounded yam
eba and akpu, to suddenly switch to Thai &
Chinese noodles with frog legshuh

Instead of cooking what he loves, you are
cooking whay you like...


Better wake-up or we arrange a sidechick for
him, who will be cooking what he loves..
You have said it all. Giving someone what you love is different from giving someone what they love or will love. He obviously doesn't fancy the whole Thai thing. He can support your effort for doing but he is not obligated to like it. And besides, more than 80% of Nigerians will opt for Nigerian dish compared to any other dish irregardless of the feferity attached. And you are lucky he isn't interested in looking for one small Calabar girl to be cooking for him. You will be gone within 6months. Considering the fact that Nigerian restaurant is one of the most lucrative anywhere there is a large portion of us, gives you an idea that Nigerian men don't fancy foreign dishes that much.

I am the Trump that this c r e t i n is talking to, and this is my response:

"There is no rice and beans here, so your voice is not needed."

grin grin grin grin

Back to the matter: Little do people know that if the leash is loosed from Israel, and they are allowed to play by their instincts, all this cho cho cho won't be happening. Just to let you know, Israel is the most technologically advanced nation in warfare. We thought that Iran was trying, but the war has proven them to be a paper tiger and a country that Nigeria will beat hands down in technology.
Interesting to know is that Israel restrains itself due to the perception of the other nations. That is what guides them: restraint. But when America gets involved, what guides America will be INTERESTS.

And interest can be defined only by the person of interest. So pray for Iran, pray that God does not allow America look their way. Or else even the good Persian people of Iran will join the i s l a m i c J i h a d and collect in a very b a d way.
Isrral is a powerful nation no doubt but they are not invisible. And as for Nigeria and Iran technologically wise my brother rest. The few Iranians I have had the opportunity to meet while studying in Asia almost if not all study a particular discipline or occupy department. Engineering, now I do not why but I bet it's not because of building skyscrapers. Both men and women, state sponsored with heavy grants.

3. To oppositional thoughts .. recognize opportunity.
4. To future landowners lease don't sell

For those who are interested, I will like to buttress this point as I have also learned one or two on this platform ..

For able businessmen or private party interested in buying because they see a future.. keep buying. For those who are willing and wants to sell, sell justifiably. After all we all Nigerians , even if oyinbo people instigate because of one thing or the other, they are still strangers. For ones advocating against, recognize the opportunity, you can be an agent, a broker of deal, a land owner family, and need the finance to build forward, and can't negotiate for long, grab the opportunity which in turns leads to the last group, if you have a land, do you know up to 32 story high you own the land and it's airspace.? It's simple logic, which cost more an airport or it's airspace that's why you lease.. by leasing the land for 50years and it's airspace, you can get double of what you will see the land for with a proper legal framework as a backbone.. in 50 years a lot can be discovered on the land, telecommunication network for example. Not talking about the ones already in use but ones yet to come. Technology has taking over the world, and it needs land for assimilation. Data centers is just one of it's child. A lot are on the way. When you lease, you retain your land, and still insure future revenue.. with solid legals works rights and works ni o.. even the paper works alone is a collateral. So if you own a land.. regardless where you are in the world.. don't sell.. lease it out
