PoliticsRe: Kano State Governor Formally Decamps To APC by Jakarta: 6:43pm On Jan 26
Give it to Tinubu when it comes to politics. Even though he failed woefully as a president from my own assessment, that pa is a master strategist.

I wonder what APC will look like after his 8 years tenure. That not withstanding the APC is setting a very bad precedence, for those happily jumping up and down now, don't wail later on when another party does same thing oh!!

Open your eyes, tech is the new gold and oil combined. The fact is not everyone who tried to learn it will end up earning with it.Some may dropout due to burnout, others may fall into tutorial hell, and only a few will succeed. All in all, there are enormous potential in Tech, if your mind dey, enter with full force.

Effects of weak institutions, corruption, and I don't care attitude. I believe there are standards, and protocols before any surgical operation is done. Who enforces these standards, are defaulters being punished even when they are guilty? The answer is NO all thanks to corruption. Nigerians are Nigeria's problems.

Yeah but it is still not that effective. Like I said earlier our major issues are weak institutions, inconsistency in our policies and the worst of all corruption. All in all these doesn't make real estate a bad investment, that's my stance.

Let's be frank , that 1.2M in 2017 is valuable than 8M today.

In 2017, you could buy a tokunbu 2005 Corolla and 100 bags of cement with 1.2M.

Can you buy a Corolla and 100 bags of cement with 8M today?
Let's argue with facts and not sentiments please. First and foremost how did you come to the conclusion that 1.2M in 2017 is more valuable than 8M today?

If I had bought a 2005 Corolla and 100 bags of cement in 2017 for 1.2M, what would have been their total worth today, how much profit would I have made, if I wanted to sell them today?

Like seriously are you telling me that a man earning ₦1.2m annually or monthly in 2017, would have lived a more comfortable life than a man earning ₦8M today? Backup your claims with verifiable facts please, I await your response.

You can see that you are so ignorant that you are ignorant of your ignorance.
You just said there was a revolution because peasants and low income earners were landless and the elites owned almost all the land, isn't that what is happening globally? Is land ownership the same as 30years lease? Nigeria is a nation that destroys the thinking faculties of her citizens.. I don't know if it's the pure water or mama put but something is wrong with the way you reason.
I am educating you and you are busy forming guru.. talking about you have friends and embarrassing ones self you just validated my point: Private land ownership is unsustainable. It's can't go on for much longer. And another question that you need to ponder upon; are we at war?

But ofc an ignoramus will never change because ignorance is bliss. You prefer to stay in your comfort zone rather than learn something new, you can't even connect dot. You will come now and say something silly mtchew
So if we were at war your floating house will not be destroyed? Do people still build houses in same China where private land ownership is banned?

China banning private ownership of lands doesn't still stop elites from controlling and having huge portions of lands. The elites still lease the best locations of lands, control development rights, influence allocation decisions, they still win at the end of the day, because the poor peasants still don't have access to these lands. They can only have access through same elites. The only advantage is the fact that the government can reclaim possession of the land, it doesn't shield the poor and peasant. This shouldn't be too much for you to understand if you can harness just 0.1% power of the brain.

Even though the Nigeria government doesn't ban land ownership, there are government reserved areas. People buy these lands for private and personal use, due to lack of strong institutions, corruption, etc.

Get this into your head, Private land ownership in China was not banned because it was economically unsustainable. It was banned for political, historical, and control reasons. People still build and lead houses in China. The elites still indirectly dictate who can lease a land.


Talking about education, I recommend showing this thread to your elders or your parents, and if they are being honest with you they will tell you who is educating who between the 2 of us.


You argue ignorantly without direction. Empty vessels they say make the loudest noise, you are just ranting incoherently. My sympathy to the man and woman who where happy that fateful day that a child was born. Like I will always say life is cruel and unfair, may God console them.

Unfortunately, you are a poor real estate agent looking for 10% commission and you grew up in Nigeria, that is a death sentence on its own. Travel and see the world from outside. Me and you can't even argue, I will educate you only if you are open to learning.
But since you think you are clever, why has China banned private ownership of land if land acquisition by private individuals and corporations is sustainable?

Answer this logical and I will bow to you as superior.
Ogbeni you are a deluded conspiracy theorist.
China did not ban ownership of land because Realestate investment is bad.

There was a time China had extreme landlord exploitation. Peasants and low income earners were landless a few elites owned most of the lands. This led to massive inequality, revolts, and civil war. So after the communist revolution land ownership was abolished to prevent a return of feudal landlord power and exploitation. They wanted a centralised power, and prevented foreigners from owning and hoarding lands. People still lease lands for 30 - 70 years in China till date. China still has one of the largest real estate markets on earth. And here you are calling real estate a bad investment.

You are sounding very myopic, childish, and incoherent. For your information I'm not a real estate agent, but I'm better of being one instead of being a broke conspiracy theorist who doesn't know where his next meal will come from.

Educate yourself, I have friends and colleagues like you, who wants to educate others, but they only ended up embarrassing themselves. They want to teach others how to make wealth, but their own account balance is showing 0. You're embarrassing yourself, if you don't know.

Now that China has been able to buy a substantial amount of Nigerian land and natural resources nko?

You don't know it, but you are threading on a dangerous and unsustainable path. Have you heard of the Chinese mining Federation of Nigeria?
It's not bad, I'm just bringing it to your attention.
Your post lacks direction, you are just shifting goal post up and down. Foreign investors are not charity organisation, every investors aim is to secure his capital and make profits.

The danger is not Chinese mining Federation of Nigeria, but Nigeria's governance herself which is usually characterised by corruption, poor monitoring, policy inconsistency and lack of local capacity.

With all said and done, can you please check the title of your thread? You are sounding very incoherent.
