At this point, I can only just pity her. According to her, they just bought the property. The person that sold the property to them is the heartless person here, if he knew the building was illegally erected. We should just pray not to fall victim of this kind of thing.

They should have done their due diligence before buying the house

this is not the time for tears

this is the time to go after the developer who sold you the house

the person who sold you the house knew exactly what was up

this is fraud and it can be proven in a court of law.

SpecialAdviser:

All demolitions are illegal for as long as the seller walks FREE in the street. It's the work of the government to arrest the developer or the seller if the house is not genuinely built.

But in Nigeria, we blame the VICTIM. Pray you don't become one

Na who dem catch na him be thief. You dat guy comment is full of gnoramus. If you want check if the property is valid from the govt, the system we operate will frustrate you first. You pay extra and more for information that aught to be readily available.


Out govt don't care, my advice to any body that wants to buy land now is they should avoid lagos. Many place dey wey beta pass lagos.

My comment might sound so hard but is important I.let people know my view on this matter. One day I visited a man to purchase a car . This man built his house under high tension ...I asked him oga who gave you this land ? Don't blame anybody if govt decides to demolish your house . What he said next shocked me. He said b4 govt comes I would have recovered my.money ...he rented a good number of the rooms to people . In this case Is clear some of them are aware of the law but choose to break it ..Sentiment aside buying a house or land is not like getting a drug at the counter. You need a sound lawyer to do due diligence .if you fail to do all this, blame yourself cos your education is waste .

This is very sad, the least the government can do is jail those officials who gave approvals.

Well that is the problem, they dont have approvals.
The government has been saying anyone with approval should come forward, have you seen anyone come forward?

That is why I read comments from easterners saying "buying house at your own risk" and i laugh and ask, what risk exactly, it is stupidity to pull out N100m -N300m to buy a house without asking for proper paperwork.

Even small fishpond i built around Epe, I went through the process to make sure the land is not sitting on a future roundabout or a future T junction.
People want acquire a property of N300m but they dont want to pay a company 250k to run the survey, they want to give one alhaji 50k.

Then alhaji will tell them dont worry, my son even works there. The land is clean.

I blame the buyer.
No one will pay for anothers stupidity

I feel her pain, but on the other hand I don't have any pity for her. Life does not begin and end in Lagos State. With the recent happenings in Lagos and Nigeria as a whole, they've been warned but they don't care.
If you're building houses or buying properties in Lagos, you're doing so at your own risk.
Una go learn it they hard way till you all get sense.
You are a fool and a big fool. We were all on our own before they joined us together to be Nigerians. This is why anyone can travel anywhere and work anywhere. Ppl we never gather in Lagos if it wasn't once a capital. They only came their for biz. You and your fathers have no right to send them away. We are all Nigerians. Your ppl are also all over Abuja which is also a capital today

If your fools are tired of that then let's break the country. You all benefit from the south more. Your oils and gas are gotten from the East and South. Gas you enjoy in Lagos is from Imo.

If you guys continue with this nonsense, you are all saying we should go our separate ways. If you are ready for that, be man enough and declare it. I swear you guys will suffer more cos gas is the future and oil is gone

When we are ready, we will stop everything you get from the East and South and let's see who will need each other more. Your leaders, Tinubu and others can never try it cos they know they benefit more from the South. Their oil Wells are all their

If you don't have sense go and borrow. This is an exercise in futility that will only hurt you guys more. If you try it, you are saying we should all go our separate ways. If you guys are man enough try it and let's see who will get hurt more

Fools who know nothing. You guys think governance is acting like agberos and motor park touts. Senseless fools

you are obviously one of the slow witted trolls who frequenst NL blaming the govt fro everything

someone has defrauded you in a transaction, you get a lawyer and you involve police

on this very nairaland there are multiple cases of dubious car dealers who sell cars with incomplete custom papers who have gotten into trouble.

i am actually more than a little disappointed in the woman if she cannot name the person who sold them the property. that is what i would expect at this time, as a warning to the guy we are coming after you - and a warning to anyone else about to buy from the developer

unless of course this is really about engagement and internet clout.

hear your warped reasoning? Anyways if you are not ready to follow due process and conduct your due diligence before you aquire property not just in Lagos but in sane societies, then you can take whatever investment you think you own to your lawless region…y’all are quick to compare Nigerian with decent societies of the world but are not ready to do what’s right…anyways that’s your problem, Lagos is even too overcrowded with people who are better off staying back home so you won’t be missed angry

If you are buying land or property situated in a swampy area or near a canal, kindly do your due diligence and if you are in doubt just don't buy. Most developers and realtors in Lagos are crooks. I really feel for those whose house have been demolished or marked for demolition. Investing ones hard earned millions in real estate should entail one to be doubly sure before closing the deal
yes they are feasting on the desperation of the Ibos who just want to be land lord in Lagos, the so called slum they can’t do without, is God not wonderful grin

Makes me wonder, what happened to due diligence?


Unfortunately, from experience, an average Nigerian who is ready to buy a property worth tens of millions will frown seriously when a lawyer tells him to pay a mere N200,000 for search.

It is typical of us as Nigerians.

Was the demolition illegal or legal? That's the most important information.

I pity you but I need to know who I should blame in this case.

Why was the house demolished? Don't just tell us that the house was demolished, also tell us what led to the demolition.

Will you buy a stolen good and blame the thief when you get arrested? Buyers of illegal structures are the promoters of illegal structures. If there are no such buyers, who will venture into the business of illegal structures?

I honestly don't know why the woman's house was demolished. That's why I ask my questions. But you are illogical here.

who allowed the very obvious building of such illegal structures worth millions in the heart of lagos should be the question.

How does a developer build an estate in lagos right under the government nose and at the backyard without them knowing?

This is not the 1st, 2nd or 10th illegally built multimillion naira property, even in ikoyi under same incompetent/corrupt government skyscrapers were built illegally and nothing done until it collapsed and killed people. This is lagos government incompetence which they have not taken responsibility for.

Not surprising to read your comment riddled with double standards. The govt could easily mark a house for demolition, but couldn't easily tag a warning sign to the house. It is usually the case in this nigeria to blame the victim, rather than catching the criminal. Even the police are not helpful.

Where were the govt before the house was completed, and became ready for sale? Though the woman has a share in the blame,but does not simply eliminate the irresponsibility of govt officials tasked with power to ensure guildeline are strickly followed. One another hand, is nt it within residual power of the state to provide housing and protection? Why have they failed to fish out the fraudster who swindled this woman? You can applaud mediocrity for whether reasons best known in nigerian geographical entity. I want you to know one thing, it is not entirely the woman's fault. The way it all looks, the criminal will walk away free while the victim might never recover.
