You see Nigerians ehn.. Just leave them to enjoy their suffering in peace. They sincerely aren't worth fighting for.

it will take at least another generation for that to change.

sinola:
My people,
Let me advise you.... Anytime you want to buy a land. Let it be in aggrement that you will first fence the land before payment maybe after some months.You can also place a note on the land that it has been being bought....This is to confirm the genuinety of the availability of the land.
If this had been done on this scenario, that dubious uncle of yours wouldn't have scammed you.

FatGuy:
Report him to LPDC (Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee), an arm of the NBA

Kindly approve to front page, please

Pls forgive my typographical errors.

Have been following nairaland since 2012 but fully registered 2015, I know some of you would have gone through what am going through now and each of your advises would be duly observed.

We are 3 in our family me my dad, and my elder brother who is also a graduate.

it all started wen I lost my mom to cancer 2016. she was a school teacher in one of the government school in abuja.

After her death we started following up her gratuity from Gov, God willing and thank God we were paid.

We decided to invest the money in schooling, which we decided to build a primary school in PH

I'm from Owerri but I have uncles from rivers state so we had the feelings that river state is a better option for the investement.

At least we have relatives there to show a good place to set up the school.

We went to our uncle's house who happens to be a Lawyer and narrated everything to him concerning a good land to Start up a school.

He told us he had a land for sell, we were happy because we felt he can't scam us.

We went through normal procedures concerning the land he wanted selling to Us.

Sorry not to have mentioned, my uncle came from a very respected and rich family so we handled everything with full assurance.

He then told us that 2 barristers (based in PH) are also involved in the land deal. That they own the land.

Since they were barristers, we consented.

So we paid 5million for two plots.

Though, the area wasn't that developed but they where few houses there, so starting up school there might be profitable

We started building fence and other important things that is ought to be done, in fact, all what we spent would sum up to 1.2million.

In the course of building, someone we don't know came and chase us out of the land, Saying the land belongs to him.

During this period, my dad tried to reach out to my uncle and the other 2 barristers to come and explain things to him but they were no where to be found.

He spent 2 weeks in PH without any sign from them nor results.

This is a year and three months we paid for that land and we haven't step into that land and no straight answers had been given to us.

We trusted him.

What annoys me the most is that he now pick our calls only when he feels like and no straight answer would still be given..

We have been avoiding taking the case to court because we fear it would last longer in court.

He told us to take him anywhere we like, that he will defend himself.

We don't need the land again, we want our money back cause what we have experienced so far is not what we bargained for.

I'm thinking of going to Brekete family (Human Right Radio) in Abuja to seek for solution

Note: My uncle is now based in Abuja but those two lawyers are based in PH.

Please my fellow nairalanders your advise are needed and any comment given would be very much appreciated, cause this totally look like we have been scammed.

Bros, this matter doesn't concern Buhari at all.

It was a court that ordered the interim (temporary) forfeiture.

Racoon:
After Same INEC bastardized the 2019 election by awarding contract for the supply of card readers to a contesting APC senatorial candidate?

Why is INEC instead not pushing for electronic voting which is the most trending development in electioneering process globally? Why the primitive attachment to the SCR that the north don't adhere to? Useless body.

ziegurf:
That man is a RACIST

The last time I was in Abuja, I realized most people in Abj no even Sabi road, thank God for Google map, I would have gone to NTA to declare myself missing

LegendHero:
If you could access me properly on Nairaland, you will agree with me that I’m not always on an offense against any tribe, I always react when I see someone is trying to demean my tribe.

You posted a narration about a Yoruba guy which I don’t deny, it could be true or false. The guy said it based on his own experience and perspective. Just like you will tell a foreigner never to visit the north coz of the Boko Haram crisis (a northerner living in Kano will see you as a bigot coz to him Kano is different from Borno?.

This thread is about an imaginary Ghanaian profiling Igbos and you and your kinsmen suddenly made it about the Yorubas. You attacked first coz I don’t know why you think the Ghanaian can’t actually say that.

Wake up Bro, the Igbo image is battered around the globe, it’s not only Ghana. There are multiple countries that have already started judging Nigerians by their tribes and recent happenings give credence to that fact.

You can choose to deny all you can, it’s none of my business.

LegendHero:
You can choose to write a lot of crude comment against the naturally adorned Yorubas but that dosen’t stop the fact that the Igbos are famous for being shady minded and they are known international drug pusher second to Mexico.

The north contributes to the Nigerian terrorism index around the globe while the Igbos are the arrowhead for shady deals and drug deals across continents.

You can choose to deny from now till eternity but it dosen’t stop the self evident truth about the criminal mindset of you folks.

Wake up and smell the coffee, every country have learnt to profile the Igbos separately from the rest of the Nigerian tribes. We all saw on front page when one of you was crying that he was deported from Malaysia/Thailand for being Igbo.

zibya:
This is where you get it wrong. There's no single endeavor on planet Earth that the Ibos have excelled where others haven't, and for the fact that you guys are forever lamenting on the Nigerian scene goes a long way to prove my point

nku5:
We know who pioneered drug dealing in Africa. Even one of your first class obas was caught with drugs in a UK airport years ago but that's not even an issue.

The issue is your hypocrisy and tribalism that you people have now taken international. See this yoruba drug dealer (from 8 mins) telling the same police man that Igbos are bad people in Thailand. Trying to save himself with tribalism Despicable coward. It's obvious that every yoruba criminal claims Igbos are worse than them. You never see criminals from other tribes do this.

Politics you people introduce tribalism, office tribalism, even crime you have introduced tribalism. Smh
