Nice stuff. Good life. Nigga just chilling with good stuffs

He shouldn't be here

This guy is the only viable option in this year's presidential race.

Somemma13:
He has no other option other than to lose.
My problem with him is not the trust I have for AtikuObi but at least they know what could be done to see Nigeria moving forward unlike baba whose can't even understand the question let alone the answer to it.
I'm Atikulated oo

In a sane nation, Buhari won't be qualified to contest. He's basically a living and talking puppet

enemyofprogress:
Jonathan was beated in 2015

Jonathan was a gentle and enlightened man

Slynation:
Then he obviously needs to ask Goodluck Jonathan some questions....

GEJ wasn't clinging to power. We've heard them say again and again that they are not going to allow PDP rule this country.

That's enough sign

Slynation:
Obviously.... But not as much as PDP

Buhari has federal might. It's very hard to beat a sitting president in Nigeria

Iyajison:
Sure prediction..!!

Buhari (1.19) vs. Atiku (16.11)

Prediction = Away win over 4.5....

Put ur life savings

Link, please

Slynation:
Not even destroying election materials can stop him from losing....

Don't be too sure. There are still a lot of APC people

Imagine if each state in Nigeria had 1000MW power plant. We would have a total of 36000MW power plant as a nation.

Very realistic but Nigeria has no bearing.

Each state should have consulted TCN by now to find out how much is needed to upgrade the state's transmission system to the most optimal state. Then get it done within 4 years.

Very realistic but Nigeria has no bearing

If you still think Buhari will lose, you're a joker.

Acidosis:
His allowance is huge enough to get 2/"cheap" Rolls Royce of N100m each and a duplex of "N50m" (according your estimates)?

Better fear God. Dino Melaye has been in the Federal House of Rep (not state) for around 8 years; Senate for around 4 years, yet people insult him for owing properties and cars of lower value.


This DESOPADEC scammer is in the same league with Desmond Elliot oo.. Imagine Desmond Elliot, a movie director and actor with over 20 year experience in the movie industry with a 100m Rolls Royce. Desmond represents a constituency in Surulere Lagos oo..

He's been in the house since 2011. He's not a first timer like Desmond

People insulting these guys don't know where to channel their insults. The kind of pay (especially allowances) these guys are entitled to, legitimately, will shock anyone. The way politics is in Nigeria eh, you don't need to loot to be super rich. Even their pensions run in hundreds of millions (some, billions) a year. Any smart person can take loan with their pension sef before he even leaves office.

There's also lobbying. It's part of the pecks they enjoy, and it applies all over the world, even in US

Acidosis:
Can you please shut up?!

A state house of assembly member earns less than N500k as monthly salary.

You've not heard of the word "allowance".

Have fun in your ignorance

trillville:
Why is there a 40 per cent discount?
Nigeria has one of the lowest tax to GDP ratios on earth. All the time our government complains about diversification. All governments primarily earn revenue through taxation.

Our public healthcare system and education system are broken. Shouldn't his taxes be used to develop Nigeria?

Is the property tax even enforced? what is the penalty for defaulting?

To cushion the effect of property tax on home owners. That you own a home doesn't mean you're rich. You're not planning to sell your home of course. Most homes were built on mortgage and years of savings. There's no property tax in Dubai, one of the best places to live. Property tax has been argued over and over again to be wrong because owning a house doesn't mean you're as rich as the value of your house (except you're making money from the house, which usually isn't the case). People go out of money and go broke. The only thing they have is the house they built when they had something going for them.

Which is why pensioners/retirees (people above 60 years) don't pay property tax because they're exempted. The question is, what happens to people out of job, or without regular income?


Money is not Nigeria's problem. A clueless nation is clueless. Nigeria has no bearing, just disoriented. What we make is enough if we know what we're doing.

I don't know about other states, but I know Lagos, the money you owe will keep accumulating charges every other month

dadark:
dont tell me you wish to have something like that....

i dont like the desighn....

The house is cheap luxury. The effects in that house are great. Whoever designed it, from the windows to the stairs to the lighting, to the POP, to the flooring, to the layouts, is good.

That's just a normal duplex but the interior designer changed everything by giving a sense of luxury. I want a design this good and cheap

dadark:
which taste...??...

that is clinical death you see their....you can as well go hang out in a obituary...its the same design....death....!!!!

The interior is great. The exterior can be tweaked

trillville:
Sorry, Mr Lecturer. Property tax*

Nigeria has property tax.

Lagos tax rate (the craziest in Nigeria, apart from Abuja's) is 0.076% for property the owner lives in. There's also 40% relief (discount) for all properties.

So a house valued at 2billion will pay about 912k in property tax yearly. That's nothing much. My maths may be wrong tho

dadark:
his enviroment is poor,but he has good taste....

nawa for you....

Environment is not poor. Price of land varies from state to state for various reasons. I can't live in Delta state because of the way their society is organized. Most people also can't. So the demand for the land is low, leading to low price tags.

He's a Deltan, so he naturally loves his home town. His taste of design is great but he should have done better in the landscaping part. At least 50% of that front yard should have been green lawn. That gold like color in the interior is just a light and paint effect

dadark:
this is not good taste btw....it looks like a clinic...he is just trying to copy his former enslavers....

i only see inferiority complex....

why would a black man desighn his house like this....??

it looks like somebodys nightmare....

That quiet interior is not good taste?

Please show the house something of better taste and CHEAPER

Acidosis:
and dude is a youth oo, like Sowore. Lol

Majority of the youths in this country lack integrity. This is why I strongly kick against voting people because they're "youths". Senseless youths.

I would rather vote a dying old man who has little or nothing to do with wealth, than a young scammer with big dreams.

Meanwhile, Nigerians need EFCC more than any para military or security apparatus. There is no greater threat to our existence than corrupt individuals, regardless of the party they belong.

EFCC really needs to recruit at least 100,000 credible graduates to investigate issues like this. They're everywhere in the country, from Southern to Northern Nigeria. Yahaya Bello built a similar mansion barely 6 months into his administration, yet EFCC has remained silent.

There is nothing expensive about the house. It's just the design. It has a minimalist design, which cuts off wastes.

I've been looking for this kinda design but hardly find it.

As for those POPs, you can get them done for less than 3k per square meter.

50m can give you what you have there, apart from the cars.

He's been in the house for over 7 years, if he can't afford 40-50m in savings, he's a financial wreck. Rolls Royce is as cheap as 100m.


He can afford everything there. It's just the design.I wish I can lay hold on that design

trillville:
The same thing used to happen in England in the past.

Every rich family built a castle to show their wealth.

What made them change their ways? Estate taxes.

Go and check the meaning of estate tax before you say what you don't know

Nothing expensive about the house. Delta state has cheap lands. The guy has taste. The main thing about house is taste and design, not just money.

Some people will still build big for nothing with the same amount he spent on that

In his mind he believes those who failed didn't work hard enough. GEJ is the closest Nigeria has had recently in getting a working philosophy.

Unfortunately, Nigerians are dumb enough to believe that corruption is the nation's problem. Gej set up national conference and successfully mapped the nation. That's the first step to breaking Nigeria out.

Corruption IS NOT any nation's problem, lack of philosophy is. Check history, from Russia to Malaysia. Money is not our problem. Nigeria is a nation without bearing!

Nigeria is USELESS!

GOFRONT:
But for the Virus called corruption in the system of Nigeria, she ought to be as developed as Dubaiii

Russia and Malaysia are far more corrupt than Nigeria.


Corruption has never been any nation's problem

Nigeria doesn't have money problem. Not even corruption problem.

She lacks plan, vision and focus.

As corrupt as Russia is, you can't find hardly find a nation that can stand her

JOMAX:
Really? ?? How mature were the Buharis, OBJs, MURTALAs, Gowons etc when they began steering Nigeria?

Yes, they were very mature young men, not behaving like touts. Everyone you listed there had class

povicky1:
You are the most immature one here, so the type of leadership we've been experiencing in this country, is that what you call maturity... Smh.. People like you are one of the major problem we have in this country

Desperate people are the easiest people to scam.

Drop your desperation and look at that guy.

There are other young options more mature than he's

Sectis:
[color=#000000][/color][i][/i]


People like you are the problem of Nigeria. Getting rid of your kinds is a task to a greater Nigeria. Honestly Nigeria can't move forward with people like you among the living.

There we go again.

Jumping from frying pan to fire. You guys really don't know how hapless and tactless noisemakers are. Study history, they're mostly dictatorial

Believe this at your own peril.

Poison indeed

All these young noisemakers are usually the worst. I can't imagine anyone not seeing through this guy. He's not mature by any standard

lawman88:
I never aspire divorce but the way things are going, I may divorce my wife. She never respect me and value her more than me. I m

Divorce her ASAP and go for the one that has regards for you

BiafraBushBoy:
I think one of the ways of getting over a failed marriage is to heap the blames on the head of your partner.

Morally, it isn't right; but that is the only way to get over the feeling of divorce.

I am gonna get married very soon, and NOTHING will ever lead me to divorce.

I rather play the fool in my marriage than watch it crash.

What happens to my kids?

Personal opinion tho.

You think it's all about you? She can wake up one day and walk away
