$250m! That's 0.4 trillion naira grin grin grin

The way these people throw numbers around would make you wonder if they are actually talking about USD or defunct Zimbabwean dollars
They just called money anyhow. Which real estate company in Nigeria can boast of 400b naira portfolio investment. Maybe they calculate in the next 20 years or even more what they think it will be. Okun Ajah is not yet a thriving area to even boast of buying land for lands for 1b naira there, no matter the numbers cos you might even buy out most of the lands with the amount over there. My friend boss has 40 plot of land at back of sangotedo ShopRite in island here. By calculation a plot is 25m and those are very developed area. Let this people stop calling money cos not everybody is a fool. Their estates are always outskirts of the major areas.

Have you also checked if the coastal highway was over priced ?
Just because your sister lied doesn't mean you too should!

I don't need to ask that one as that's not discussed in the OP!

You questioning the amount does not mean the coastal highway cost is spot on. First pick out the sand in your eyes before picking out someone else's hypocrite. We know how you ppl operate and your style is flawed

Can they list the $250million properties that were destroyed?

Where?

I did an analyses on the Landmark properties some months back.



The reason I cite the Landmark example is that real estate investors would tend to inflate their loss to defraud the government.

The following estate was listed:

WinHomes Global Estate

(1) Was WinHome Global Estate constructed on reserved land?

(2) Did the real estate developer go through proper channels to acquire the property?

(3) One thing that completely bothers me is that when these people make claims, they hardly support their claims with evidence, like a quantity surveyor report attesting to the cost of what they claimed was destroyed.

(4) What is the worth of the real estate company to be controlling properties worth $250million?

(5) When your rights are violated, you go to court, not go to the media. Why don't you go to court? If you don't trust the court, why did you trust whoever you trusted when you acquired the properties? Some entities would try to defraud the government and the public by inflating their apparent loss. We saw how Landmark did this and have not sued till today!

(6) Who did you acquire the properties from? What was the history of ownership?
You nailed. Google win homes global estate and you will be shocked that all their estates are in remote area of island that are not yet developed but with time it will be. When you visit landmark beach, you will know the owner as at six years ago, he didn't spent 100m. Most commentators on nairaland don't knows the place. They just displayed their normal victims mentality behavior. How much is now the cost of building and worth of the prestigious Eko hotel, if landmark owner claim is beach worth 200m dollars. 99 percent of the new estates you hear that are in lekki are in very far communities cos they just attached lekki to boast their sales.

I think you need to get more info about the estate before concluding...

Back to the topic,

When we tell them Tinubu and his government are at fault here on the route, his supporters start throwing insults, there was an original route for the coastal road and everyone who came to invest avoided the route, that includes hotels, telecommunications, real estates and so on, only for Tinubu and his goverment to wake up and decide to change the route destroying people's investment and still trying to blame them for doing the right thing...

And Tinubu supporters expect Nigerians to clap for him and praise him

I doubt any estate there could be worth 250million dollars. How many acres are we speaking of here.

This highway is just another means to siphon billions, they cant fix the old roads connecting lagos with the other parts of the country, they want to build a new road into the Atlantic. Jokers.

Its just trying to create beachfront properties for foreign investors, but in the end its a pump and dump scheme, there is nothing economically viable in that area, just massive flooding.

Stop making assumptions and give me the real figures if you have it. How many Nigerians in diaspora have $1 million? Do you?

250,000,000 divided by 5000 plots is 50k usd . About 80m. Plot of land plus houses they have been built on it plus property appreciation in that area. The value is reasonable 🥴

If I sell o ne of my house in the name of moving to Nigeria to invest, I will have £650k after taxes and fees, multiply that by N2220
That is approx N1.4B If I send the money direct from here to my account, so as You can see, I was not joking.
If 10 persons send as Million Pounds each it will be £10mxN2220.N22,200,000,000.
Imagine if this goes on for just 5 years, that money will overtake the stated amount on this complaint. I think you are underestimating the Forex influence of people abroad, You don't know, Also you are failing to acknowledge how shyte your naira is.

I looked everywhere even on their website that's almost empty with no serious information, there's nothing indicating that this company is a real estate company, no development, no estate, just some people walking around talking about land.

Have they completed the estate, it would seem it is still under construction, and I still maintain the statement, how many units would need to be built to have a 250million dollar estate.

I live in a place where the unit price is north of £550k with over 300 houses and the estate rebuild value is not even near 80million.

People just throw ridiculous numbers up

Is it that tribalism has blocked your sense of reasoning or you lack ability to read and understand? You saw where mentioned has all the documents including C of O , governor's consent and costal road clearance. Maybe you are ignorant of how real estate works.

As you can see, the information was not made available, that was why I refused to argue or talk about it and you can't just conclude that the estate is not worth up to that....
