Properties › Re: See What Lagos State Building Agency Did To My House (Photos) by peleson1: 7:39pm On Jun 22
Pelaiye2703:
First off, they won't serve you a statutory notice without prior notices. I want to believe they've been to your property and you didn't respond to the notice that has been served, hence the reason why your property was sealed.

So, you're required to obtain a planning permit from the office of Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority (LASPPPA) before you commence any construction on your property. After satisfying all requirements then you'll take the Approval or Planning Peemit given to you from the LASPPPA office to the office of Lagos State Building Control Agency (LABSCA) for Authorisation to commence construction, and also for a stage certification before setting out.

Failure to go through the aforementioned channel will warrant the officials of both office to serve you a notice as indicated on your fence and also penalised you for contravening.

Before they can seal your property, they would have serve you different notices which includes;
1. Contravention notice
2. Stop work (if you've an ongoing construction)
3. Demolition Notice
4. Seal-Up Notice; and
5. Quit Notice

In conclusion, you don't have a planning permit or building approval from the approving agencies or go through the proper channels and that's why your property was sealed.

Thank you
In all this explanation, what then can he do to solve the problem?

That's your personal definition, distance or not he himself proudly mentioned IBB's role in his life as an IBB boy and I was at the event.
Ibb was the head of state when he got a contract from the ministry of information to build a TV station in the north .
He got it from the ministry and not from doddan barracks .
Arthur went to the north to hustle for it and he got it .

We are talking about Ikoyi and Lagos big boys under ibb . The ibb boys .

Sopriye was the capOne

Zero information about how he got his start.

We know how Dangote and Otedola started; family wealth and inheritance.

Where did Kalu and Obi (yes, Obi) get their start? Zero information.

Babangida gave Kalu his start through his mother's relationship with the dictator.

Don't let anyone pressure you that these guys were billionaires in their twenties. Everything was given to them on a platter.
Orji had Abiriba connection and that was it.
Obi father and family were wealthy Marchants

You guys don't have a clue do you?

Orji Kalu was the room mate of Ibrahim
Abacha , Gen Abacha's son at the university of Maiduguri

Ibrahim and Abba Abacha introduce Orji Kalu to their father and Gen Abacha introduced Orji kalu to General Ibrahim Babangifa the President at the time.

You guys need to learn to research properly
There is more about Orni Kalu that we won't include here but that is the starting point.

At least 9 Of Ibrahim Abacha's friends became Governors and some became Ministers.

Ibrahim Abacha who passed away in a plane Crash at 28 has turned out to be one of the greatest Political Kingmakers of Nigeria after Tinubu and Obasanjo

A book even needs to be written on him and how he set up his university friends for life

Ibrahim Abacha even played a major role in the rise of Dangote into an international Business juggernaut through his connections

Ibrahim Abacha was so Powerful that he could have been described as one of the owners of Nigeria
You are in the know.

At least at the time ,orji kalu was richer than dangote .

Tinubu was not in their circle .

But the richest in that circle was Sopriye from Rivers state . He later died of cancer of the blood .
The Abachas were very close to the rivers people especially the riverine and they made sure ijaw state of bayelsa was created .
An ijaw bayelsa man was to be the senate president under Abacha then before he died .

IBB na don forget Abacha
Typical . Always boasting and noise .
Are you the one to tell about Daa Eunice kalu ?
Her house next to one of our houses at back of equitable international before orji as governor moved her to the new mansion still at the Enitonia hotel area ?
Or you want to tell me about the Abachas?
Or you want to tell me about Arthur eze?
Arthur eze is not in same class with orji .
Orji journey from unimaid to house of reps and then national conference was remarkable , your Arthur eze was not known nationally then .
Orji was the richest Igbo man and still is .

Your present government house in anambra state was renovated by who? Can you guess ? .

You come online to talk to people anyhow . ..
Just make your research

vanitybutiwanti:
not holding brief for Tinubu but you are forgetting that Tinubu was a senator who had ties with Abacha before he became governor, also don't forget he was resident in the US. Truth is 1999 set of governors were mostly big boys before they became governors
Tinubu was a big boy .
Abscha didn't trust Tinubu and Tinubu wasn't close to abscha , he was looking for that opportunity.
Ibb never liked Tinubu .
Though Tinubu was close to Abiola .

The late Jack from rivers state that was the chairman of the electoral empire under Abacha ,What jega or yakubu was under Buhari in inec was from Rivers state and he later became the depsuty governor who handed over to Odili when the military boys left . He was very close to Abscha and my elder sister's husband contested for senator being Abachas's first son best friend.. That name Tinubu was not known and was not in the circle late Mr Jacks daughter is still my friend till date ,we spoke today still .

You can go and verify what I said in my post.

Like I said ,any body can be anything once the person keeps grinding and upskilling and following the right steps and God's factor very important.

In 2007, Dangote was not yet the richest Nigerian . Who knew he was going to be that?
Dangote family left VI back to kano .

Before they left , I was with jubril dangote and I asked the young man , what would you like to become in the future and he said ,"I will like to be an investor and I want to buy Liverpool FC of England"
His friend phileo was not able to say what he was gonna be .
You could see how these people move.
I didn't see Seyi, I didn't meet them before 1999 so where were they ?
Nobody in the circle knew them .

Tinubu was busy grinding and grinding and now we have him

In 1999 , it was Tinubu's deputy governors family that provided Tinubu with refurbished Peugeot he used for his swearing in as governor . Tinubu did not have a convoy nor a befitting car for that . His deputy did and his deputy governor's family provided that for him .


In this life , we only need God favour and mercy while we prepare for opportunities because opportunities are endless .
I'm talking about old money

Not new money .

What I'm sure of is that Tinubu is new money
And another thing I'm almost certain about is that Tinubu does not care about Forbes rating instead ,he is determined to be the richest Nigerian by far . So he is mobbing everything finance he can . He is not relenting .

odoemelamemmanu:
At 27, He Was Already a Bank Chairman: The Extraordinary Rise of Orji Uzor Kalu.
‎
‎Emmanuel Odoemelam, China.
‎
‎Long before he became a rep member, governor, senator, or one of the most influential political figures in contemporary Nigeria, Orji Uzor Kalu had already achieved what many spend a lifetime pursuing.
‎
‎A recently circulated ranking of Nigeria's youngest bank chairmen places Kalu at the very top of the list. In 1987, at just 27 years old, he became Chairman of Cooperative and Commerce Bank (CCB), a feat that remains remarkable even by today's standards.
‎
‎For many Nigerians, the achievement is more than a historical footnote. It is a reminder of a young entrepreneur whose journey from commerce to national leadership was built on vision, courage, and an uncommon appetite for enterprise.
‎
‎By his mid-twenties, Kalu had already established himself in the world of business. He was involved in international commodity trading and had interests spanning multiple sectors, including furniture, shipping, oil, manufacturing, and other commercial ventures. At an age when many young people were still searching for direction, he was building companies, creating jobs, and expanding his business footprint beyond Nigeria's borders.
‎
‎Those who have followed his career often point to his early years as evidence that success is not defined by age but by determination, discipline, and the ability to recognize opportunities where others see obstacles.
‎
‎Today, Kalu's public profile extends far beyond business. He served as Governor of Abia State, later emerged as Chief Whip of the 9th Senate at first arrival at the Red Chambers, and currently represents Abia North Senatorial District in the National Assembly. He also chairs the Senate Committee on the South East Development Commission (SEDC), where he plays a key role in advancing development initiatives across the region as a top ranking senator.
‎
‎Yet, despite decades in public service, many still associate him with the entrepreneurial spirit that first brought him national recognition. His story resonates because it reflects the possibilities available to young Africans willing to dream beyond limitations and work relentlessly toward their goals.
‎
‎For Nigeria's Generation Z, Kalu's journey offers powerful lessons. It demonstrates that leadership can begin early, that wealth creation can be built through enterprise and innovation, and that business success can evolve into a platform for national service.
‎
‎More than four decades after he began his business journey, Kalu remains a prominent figure in Nigeria's economic and political landscape. At 66, he continues to command attention whenever conversations turn to leadership, development, and the future of the country. Amongst the class of 1999 governors, he remains one of the renowned very important persons with a known source of cash flow as recognized by Forbes magazine and several other global financial journals.
‎
‎His rise from a young businessman to a bank chairman, rep member, governor, senator, and national statesman stands as one of the most compelling success stories of his generation a story that continues to inspire young Nigerians to believe that greatness is possible, regardless of where they start.
‎
‎In a nation constantly searching for examples of perseverance and achievement, the life of Orji Uzor Kalu serves as a reminder that ambition, hard work, and resilience can transform youthful dreams into a legacy that spans generations.
If not for FG marginalization against Old Eastern region of now South east and south south, dangote would still not come close to people like orji kalu .
The man was so rich and powerful and globally connected .
The richest member of the biggest political party in Nigeria.PDP
Ibb referral for any public financial support
One of the biggest boy in VI

His late wife was my elder sister's friend and colleague then at allied bank in VI lagos

My sister usually was shocked about the kind of money the young orji had them each time orji came to the bank .
He picked interest in his wife and my sister was like , be careful o because he was too rich for his young age .

They eventually got married .

He built a very beautiful duplex for his mother at Brass ,behind international equitable in Aba .

He was the richest amongst the 1999 set of governors and followed distantly by sheriff of borno state .

Orji was so wealthy that he sponsored PDP and bought cars for the national working committee members .
Obj first international trip as president was to India and orji was his pilot . Man so globally connected

I respect orji

But he misrule Abia and that has always been his bad part in public life but I feel he is very much aware and tries hard to make amends as senator .


It's difficult to not like him if you meet him .

Very handsome and generous and always wears a warm smile



Tinubu didn't have a house or property in VI or Ikoyi nor lived anywhere around the ivy areas before becoming a governor in Lagos .

He was not a known big player then . Not a big name amongst big boys then . Guys like orji were very large . Big boys


Life is something very unpredictable.
Now he is the president

We should keep grinding ,updating and upskilling , by chance and grace we will some day be bigger

King JAJA conflict started with the British crown .
War started and Opobo being the most enlightened group and city state within Nigeria became a target of the Europeans and they being the gateway into Nigeria,the British plotted Opobo s fall and sabotaged the powerful king . Opobo port was the only port by which overseas travels were made .
Bishop Ajayi crowther traveled from abeokuta and badagry to Opobo then to travel to Europe for his missionary journeys, by Opobo fall was the beginning of colonization in Nigeria.
Then the amalgamation took place , the popular women riot was done in Opobo territory and Opobo people were mostly killed followed by the Calabar/akwaibom people,the protest was carried out by Opobo influence.

Politics › Re: It Costs Only £500 To Stand As A Candidate For UK Parliamentary Elections by peleson1: 8:12pm On Jun 19
Ilekokonit:
It costs only £500 to stand as a candidate for UK Parliamentary Elections and this fee has stayed the same for the past 41 years.

Since 1985 the deposit in elections to the House of Commons has been £500, which must be handed in, in cash, banker's draft, or other forms of legal tender, when the candidate submits nomination papers. It is refunded if the candidate gains more than 5% of the valid votes cast.

Between 1918 and 1985, the deposit was £150 and the threshold for refunding was 12.5%. When adjusted for inflation, £150 in 1918 equates to £7,400 in 2025 and £150 in 1985 equates to £500 in 2025.

And if you lose the election but get more than 5% of the votes, your £500 deposit is returned to you by the next working day following the declaration of result.

Nigerian politicians, they Una dey see your mates who are practicing the same democracy you claim to be practicing.

Who can stand as an MP?
To stand as a candidate in a UK Parliamentary General Election you need to be at least 18 years old and be either:

a British citizen or

a citizen of the Republic of Ireland or

a citizen of a commonwealth country who does not require leave to enter or remain in the UK, or has indefinite leave to remain in the UK.

Who is disqualified from standing as an MP?
Certain groups of people are not allowed to stand, these include:

members of the police forces

members of the armed forces

civil servants and judges

people who are subject of a bankruptcy restrictions order in England or Wales or a debt relief restrictions order

people who have been adjudged bankrupt in Northern Ireland

people who have had their estate sequestrated in Scotland

Declaring your candidacy
Once Parliament has dissolved you can declare that you are a candidate for election, or others can declare your candidacy. The timing of this declaration will have an impact on your spending limits and entitle you to a free copy of the electoral register.

Nominations
In order to become a 'validly nominated' candidate, which means your name will appear on a ballot paper, you need to submit a completed set of nomination forms together with a deposit of £500 to the (Acting) Returning Officer before 4pm on the deadline day for nominations.

As a 'validly nominated' candidate you will be entitled to free postage for one election communication to electors in your constituency, as well as the use of certain rooms to hold public meetings.

Election agent
Every candidate must have an election agent (if you wish you may act as your own agent). This is the person responsible in law for the proper management, particularly in terms of finances, of your election campaign.

Return of deposit
Those candidates who received more than 5% of the total valid votes cast in the constituency will have their deposit returned by the next working day following the declaration of result.

Those candidates who have polled equal to or less than 5% of the total number of valid votes cast in the constituency will lose their deposit.
