MrOkenwa:
I was scared of my wires. I'm planning to connect to the national grid asap, even though the building itself is not ready to be occupied.
Well, they eventually served me breakfast.
My pumping machine was stolen in the site. It's installed inside the deep well (20 meters deep). They removed the machine and left with the entire connection system. I was planning to leave the site for about 2 months before going back to finish the remaining works but then, I was shown a building in the neighborhood. It was built last year. The entire electric cables of that house was stolen with so much damage done to the interior of the house during the process of stealing the wires.
I don't even know whom to suspect. I just know that it won't end well for whoever did that to me.

Yes. The first site. Our street is not fully developed.
I brought up the idea of employing a security guard. my people said that it's usually those security guards that will eventually connive with people out there.
I'll look for a live-in guard.

Wire Theft Again.. !!!
Sorry about your experience Sir, May Almighty God replenish your pocket.

Solution: I think you should hire a security guard, who can intensely monitor the site.
Amen. Thanks bro.

Hello my people,

Nigeria is showing me pepper of recent. I got one land in an estate still within Ibeju-Lekki and I got allocated last year December or so. A few months later, we got news that another RE company came to claim the whole estate. (This estate is covered with genuine global C of O).

Since then (March 2022), the company has been begging and asking for more time to either get the estate back or relocate us.

From March till now, nothing has changed, been intouch with all the major players in the company (MD, CTO, secretary and even their lawyer), yet begging and stories are what I keep getting.

Can anyone recommend a better approach to getting my refund or at least getting another land without going the legal route?

I have 2 cases in court already (LAG and PH), one from last year June and another from July this year and I don't like the progress at all (Too much adjournments and excuses from the sitting judges and registrars) apart from the money it keeps taking from me.

Is the court the only way here? (Actually told their lawyer I was going to serve them papers but he said it will only prolong the matter).

Make una advise me abeg, this country is giving me some serious double mind.

Anyone with similar experience and how was it resolved?

Not sure if I made a mistake believing in this country.

Since it is a real estate company, I am sure you will have a Deed of Assignment. Call their attention to the Indemnity clause in the Deed of Assignment. What does the Indemnity clause in the Deed of Assignment says about a defective title or an adverse claimant that has a better title than the real estate company who sold the land to you? That should be the starting point.

If the Deed of Assignment says you will be indemnified in case of an adverse claimant that has a better title, then that is the angle you should approach the problem from.

If you go through the refund route, I am sure they will say the refund is subject to a 30% or 40% deduction.

I just hope they have stopped sales of the land to the public pending when they resolve their issues.

Thank you sir.

Yes, they were supposed to refund me in full according to the contract signed or relocate me to another estate of the same value within the same jurisdiction nothing more than 14 days but they have failed in everything and have resorted to lies, begging and evading calls.

This is why I need another method to get them to do the right thing outside the court if possible.

Please what's the cost of 0.45mm and 0.55mm Steptiles now.
How does one ensure you're buying the correct Guage?
Is 0.55 significantly superior to 0.45? Because I see most people using the 0.45 (I may be wrong though).

Roofing sheets are one of the most important material required for a building project. Asides the fact, that they serve as covering for a building, they also add elegance and beauty in their own way to thee building. The importance of knowing the right roofing sheet cannot be over emphasied .

There are some POP guys i have seen using something like tornado nails on the decken in order to use it as hanger do something like binding wires that will be like extra holds to it and the design they say must not be too heavy

Plus any decken POP would be on standard cast and adequately mix too
All in all POP om decken are not to carry heavy designs, something like extra layers

That's sounds good
But personally I prefer a pop casting ( like scettings) around the corners of the roof wall, a sharp screeded plaster and a nice paint.

Nigeria isn't the problem but lagos state.
You didn't say anything about what the new claim owners are demanding from you?

Things like this hardly happen in my state, Edo state.
Honestly Edo stat3 was worse than lagos in terms of land grabbing, omonilez and Co
...not until the Oba of Benin intervened, since then lands in Edo is a safe haven investment.

Anyways that's the hazards that come with buying land in choice areas, " be prepared for the worst"

You have a high taste obviously, if and when you get out of this, reconsider your taste a little next time so you can have rest of mind!

I do not think his taste is the problem neither is it a crime to have a high taste.
The problem is actually the greedy Nigerians who have destroyed the real estate/ construction industry.
People who want to amass great profits doing nothing or cheating others.

What I do with most of the lands I help client procure is reconfirmation from the right sources in government offices to ascertain the genuine owners of properties.

I actually pity him sincerely because it is not easy to save funds and try to do something good at a time like this

I think we are out rightly trying to take food out of our quantity surveyors with this mentality.
No one would perfectly give you 99% cost value on whatever you want to build without taking into consideration your taste (designs), the span of the structure, the aesthetics and finishing.. All these would guide anyone expected to give you a cost estimate

I got to my site yesterday inside heavy rain. It's a block of terraces with all external work being done by the developer. I noticed several leaking points in the roof at the master bedroom in the 2nd Floor. They told us they used 0.55 aluminum but I highly doubt it. They were probably sold fake or something, cos I noticed the sheets looked light. I don't know what's the solution to a problem like this. My POP people are already molding downstairs ready to start fixing sometime towards the end of the week but with leakage in the roof, it's a major problem. I plan to put about 27 solar panels on this same roof later on. Is it advisable to change the whole roof (this has to come out of my pocket) or just try to fix the leaking points (I'm sure this is what the developer will suggest when I bring it up).

You need to fixed the leaking point first before the pop and if the leakages is not too much it can be fixed but if is too much you’ll need to change the whole roofing sheet I can come over to fixed it for you if you’re ready sir

It's an estate land sir and I don't have issues with the new or the other party that claimed the land.


It's the company I got the land from that claimed they were sold the land by Lekki Coastal authority.

Not really about taste but the ROI.
