This thing happens all over south (SW, SS, SE), not just limited to Lagos... there's just too much open-eye in Lagos, but trust me, stories abound in other parts. (I haven't built in North, so I can't say). No long story from me, but a quick summary of my experiences in in Delta State involves: car chases, having to carry plank anytime I hear motorcycle, jailing 4 boys and an old man, settling on many occasions with at least 100k, police chopping money from all sides, 2 workers being beat up, myself being slapped with cutlass during a fight, my building being demolished. Now we don become padi padi, but those days enh... Instead to go and carry cement or learn a trade, these miscreants will be using "na my papa get am" to disturb people. No wahala, in 20 years, there won't be new land to sell. |

Shoodboi:He is a tribal bigot no doubt but the truth remains even in Ibo lands it happens. If I don't know of core East,I'm quite familiar with the Ikwerres of Rivers State. We should all agreeing is wrong instead of labelling a tribe to score cheap likes on Nairaland. |

chozzy:Very well said. However consider: after you mix concrete for the day, they will come and harass your workers and chase them away. All that cement, gravel, sand wasted. You can pay for police escort or vigilante to oversee the site during working house. If you go the court route, you will pay for lawyer. Police will need motivation to arrest and detain them - that is if they don't have somebody come and bail them after 2 days. At night, they may come and demolish some of your building. After you win the case, who will pay damages and other costs? After most of us do the math, it's just better to negotiate with them and settle a lower fee. The omoniles know this - they've been doing this racket more times than any single developer. All the above has happened to me, and the wisdom I got is: no matter what, money must drop, so choose your battles. |

ArcSEMPECJ:oga stop this nonsense, you should be mature with your typing and don't involve sentiment. Omonile is a menace in Lagos that the government should look into. Oh you think only the yorubas are Omonile right? Come to mushin, I will show you Nnamdi, chukwudi, and all type of di's that are Omonile. Even the yorubas suffers more than any other tribe |

Even if you bring soldiers, remember that the soldiers can't be there forever. . Once they leave , you go regret yourself. The menace of those illiterates is just horrible. Be street wise and show no fear. You'll still have to settle them but the money go less once you show small madness too. |

Addme:Up north here, we don't have that problem at all. Just buy your land, get your papers and start building. No single soul will disturb you about one nonsense omoonile ish. That is why lands and houses are more cheaper than in the south. I hate hearing about that the nonsense issue call omoonile. It is irritating and makes youth to be lazy. |

Omonile Omonile....that is why I keep telling people especially those living in LAGOS to buy lands from reputable Real Estate companys. When you buy, you have peace of mind because everything has been done for you.you have no issue with Omonile or whatsoever. Especially if you are abroad and you want to buy land in LAGOS and have peace of mind...please take my advice. The company will also be in charge of managing the lands for you. You won't have to worry about clearing the bush and all. You won't have to worry about maintenance of your plots as far as you have paid your Development Levy. If you are abroad, please take my advice on this. It's only in lagos you will buy land from an individual then after 2 months you will hear that land was sold to 4 more buyers. Before you know it, you are already in court fighting for land. One thing leads to another, the different buyers will start using charms on themselves. You will spend alot of money on the case and at the end get tired and leave the land. Money wasted, Time wasted, Battle, Court case and all. Why ![]() Why go through all these stress... That's why I keep marketing genuine lands here on nairaland that are free from Omonile Wahala and any known Govt Acquisition. Please kindly check my signature and profile to know more. https://www.nairaland.com/5468893/get-affordable-lands-ibeju-lekki-lagos/2 And the best part is the lands I market here are in Lagos and are very affordable. I don't like hearing people involved in land battle in lagos atall becos I know what my father went through in the hands of these so called "Omonile". |

About 8 years ago, I visited my home town in Benin to build a factory in one of my land, some local boys came to disturb, I tried to negotiate proving to them with receipt that, the development levy was already paid to them, they were adamant, I left with my money. Since the coming of this present administration in Edo state, I have developed two plots in the same town without seeing them. The Lagos state government need to enforce the law and apply punitive measures because, it's enforceable just like in Edo state. The government don't seem to realise the damages these 'omo-nile' are doing to the state economy and social cohesion as the status quo is crowding out needed private investors (less taxes to the government & less job creation), it encourage laziness, layabout and criminality among these citizens preventing them from acquiring skills and alternative source of dignified livelihood. |

southniyikaye:Come make i fortify you so next time you encounter them, you will be able to do omo akin.. By the way, you know thoze people you mentioned in person or you just heard about them? At OP, It has become a norm in the society, you must settle before you begin any new development on your land but next time, find out from the elders who controls those guys, Elders like the oba(king), chiefs, baale and co. Discuss your plan to them and let them know you don't want disturbance from thd omo onile.. |
