This looks like it would collapse anytime soon...


People pay rent?

Pay rent ke?

No
House na free

Yes in Festac. Communal living serves you well later in life. You experience all tribes, religions, faith and culture. Though things are different now, but it's recommended.

Dogongida at Katsina road, Kano. Sweet and bitter experience.

They gbensh each other's wife easily there.

Kharol1234:
This house na for festac e they

Festac is not that bad

nifemi25:
Bits common in festac and Lagos island..

These are the popular jakande Estate government buildings.

One or two must dey there wey go mount A/C with Dstv, steady Gen and other 'effizy' to take form Obi Cubana of the compound.

HacheNoire:
FESTAC needs to be declared as an open air concentration camp.

What’s the difference between FESTAC and Gaza!

In which people in cars live in that building you are all over festac

Kung Fu Landlady comes to mind...

Ikeja Air Force base. Never a good place to raise a family.

No be Festac be dis?

Some environment hold people back in life and this is one of them.

I once lived in one of such places. I never intended to stay more than 6 months until I secure a better apartment because of the money I was spending in hotel accommodation for over one month, so I decided to take it as temporary shelter while I start to look out for a tastefully furnished apartment in the GRA as I was posted to this location from the North.

I brought my SUV weeks later from my house in Abuja and all hell was let loose. The car that never had problems before then became a regular customer in the mechanic garage. To cut the long story short, I sold it under a year and 3 months stay there. I couldn't even leave the place because whenever I save money to leave, there will be one wahala or another that will take the money. Also, I seem to be the only one doing well among over 42 tenants. Meanwhile, house owners live there (a mistake that i wont repeat in life).

I finally broke the curse after four years of unintended stay there by borrowing almost 2m to get another apartment and move. Surprisingly I paid back that money within 2 weeks even before I moved out. How I got that money to pay back remains a mystery.

Some places are haunted by unseen forces. The picture you posted is one of those places as you can see poverty displayed all over the place

Civilian Barack.Where you find drug addicts, alcoholic and other characters . Someone can just wake up in the middle of the night or early morning while others are sleeping and start playing loud music.Collection of light bill in this kind of house is tug of war.

Stayed in an house like this in fegge Onitsha for some months, years back.

Man I experienced real levels of poverty I never knew existed.

Gbadugbakun:
You can't raise a female child in this kind of compound. All those useless boys would start pressing her tom Tom breasts from a tender age once they start popping out.

Aswear no be lie. Young females are not safe.. even boys too.

Depriest2020:
Mostly found in Nigeria's police and Army barracks.

Yeah..

In the army, mostly the non commissioned officers quaters are like this.

One family has eight children there and the papa still dey chook eyes for other women.

Have you ever lived in a compound like this? Share your experience.

You can only find this kind of houses in Lagos and Onitsha 😁

Reminds me of that house in the movie King Fu Hustle

This is a police barracks

kpankpangolo:
Rather than pool money for a paint job, they’ll complain that the government abandoned them. It’s the mindset which kills people, not the reality on ground.

just as u rightly said, 20/20k by each occupants of that building will do a beautiful job. But everyone thinks say em wise , na why The country dey one kind

This is good old Festac town building....only God knows what happened there!!!

The house rent here is very expensive. The price they will tell you for this building will shock you. It's well with Festac house rent

Oh my Gosh..is this a refugee camp or what? I can bet with my ball that people living in this kind of building can't know all their neighbours
