Properties › The Most Expensive Homes, Neighborhood In Nigeria Is Banana Island – Forbes by johnwizey(op): 12:20pm On Jun 18, 2013
Recently, a guy met a really cute Nigerian girl at a nightclub in Lagos. He’s got a certain je ne sais quoi with the ladies. So he approached her, chatted her up for about an hour or so, and was lucky enough to walk away with her phone number and her house address. She asked him to visit her sometime. He promised he would, but he never did.

The reason is this: The lady lives in Banana Island, Nigeria’s most expensive residential area. There are only a few privileged men who can afford to date a girl who lives in Banana Island. My friend is not yet a part of the privileged few.
If you never heard about the Island, now you know. Banana Island is Nigeria’s most extravagant and expensive neighborhood – on par with the Seventh Arrondissement in Paris, La Jolla in San Diego, California and Tokyo’s Shibuya or Roppongi neighborhoods.

The exclusive playground of Nigeria’s obscenely wealthy, Banana Island is an artificial island built on reclaimed land in Ikoyi-Lagos. From an aerial view, the island is actually shaped like a banana, hence its name. Sitting on 1.6 million square meters, the sumptuous island is divided into about 535 plots ranging in size from 1,000 square meters and 3,000 square meters.

Banana Island is a place of unrivalled opulence and grandeur. It’s an entirely different world from other parts of the country. It’s a gated community, and its inhabitants enjoy such luxuries as underground electrical systems and water supply networks, 24 hour-electricity supply (the only other place such privileged is the Nigerian President’s residence), extremely tight security, good road layout, a central sewage system and treatment plant and the well-cherished company of fellow wealthy folks.

The island is the most expensive place in Nigeria and one of the most expensive in Africa to own a house. Property on Banana Island is dollar-denominated. The average cost of buying a three bedroom apartment is $2 million. However, if you’re just looking to hang around the island for some time, and not to buy property, you can rent the same apartment for about $150,000 per annum. But there’s a clause: you must pay for an initial minimum term of 2 years – in advance. And there are no refunds. Ever! Also, the tenant is also mandated to pay a ‘service charge’ of $17,000 per annum.

A typical plot of land on the island usually goes for between $4 million and $6 million, and the cheapest building on the island costs upward of $8 million. But because of the ridiculous prices of property on the island, about 60% of the completed buildings are currently unoccupied.

So, who are the people who occupy the land? The list includes multinational corporations, well-paid expatriate employees, corrupt government officials; their concubines (or mistresses), and wealthy businessmen such as Alhassan Dantata, Kola Abiola and Nigeria’s newest billionaire, Mike Adenuga.

Music/Radio › Olamide Noise Maker Ordered By FG To Include Sub-titles In Music Videos by johnwizey(op): 1:19pm On Jun 14, 2013
Government has finally had to
take matters into its own hands regarding
current Yoruba rap sensation, Olamide.

Henceforth, the rapper has been ordered
by the President himself to include a small
Yoruba-English translation dictionary in his
subsequent albums, as well as include
English sub-titles in his music videos.

Speaking to an FNN correspondent, an Aso
Rock representative said, “This order is
from Mr. President himself o. He couldn’t
understand anything the boy was saying. If
he doesn’t comply, we will send all his
videos to AFMAG Yoruba by force.”

No word on whether this ruling will affect
other musicians fond of singing in their
native languages, such as Phyno, Konga or
IllBliss.
