Good day everyone here
I just discovered this thread few days ago and I guess this thread will be really helpful to me in my coming projects and I can say that there’re a lot of Great peeps on this particular thread
it’s due to the tribal war that I’ve kept mute and unable to ask my question all these while but it seems it has died down a little bit
My question goes thus

is it advisable to have a building worth 12m on a 550k plot of land at ikorodu

megacontrol:
Examples?


Here’s a very good example: https://www.nairaland.com/6335460/imota-rice-mill-nears-completion#97509682

Land is still being sold around +/- 500k around this project and the prospect is very high.

Please, kpele, buko, we all beg you to allow peace to reign. But I don't know why he has refused to apologize, maybe he is in a secret cult and if he apologize to anyone, he may get into trouble and lose his wealth. Many people are into oaths.

The secret cult story may be correct. The things people do to get money is frightening. A person in a secret cult can never go beyond their laws, if not the guy should have apologised since.
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by vanbonattel: 7:48am On Dec 29, 2020
I once had a neighbour who was in a secret cult, their law is that if he even lends anybody any money, he will die. They even told him never to help people, the man died with millions hidden under his bed.

A funny thing happened at my site yesterday. A man living Abroad came back to Nigeria last week and decided to come check the house they built for him after 13 years living Abroad. This particular house is the first house in my avenue with 100% finishing 2 flats bungalow.

He was shocked and disappointed cos he thought they built the house in lekki or ajah Axis grin

He said he can't live here (he can't live with the poor and average people i guess) and told them to sell the house.

He left with anger and disappoinment angry

Even though his person in Nigeria built the house to his taste, at least she should be honest with him with the location. But the woman said he wasn't serious and he doesn't want the man to be scared of building house that's why she just told him to send money that there is a good land in the island with cheap price grin

So she tricked the man out of "care" for him to manage the little he has to become a landlord cos he wants to live in ajah or lekki axis but he doesn't have the power.

I can visit Lagos but I don't think I can live in Lagos. The recklessness of the people in that state is beyond me

That is what make Lagos thick. Most people in Lagos prefer it that way. When I first arrived in the US. I hate the quietness . the fact that I have to wait for buses base on time schedule was very frustrating. I just missed Mushin, Oshodi, Apogbon and CMS. Now anytime I visits I don't want to stay in the mainland

Baba, try to download the app o.

There's things that would interest you, as 60% or more of the items we use in Nigeria are imported from China.

You'll find items there cheaper than what you'll get them in Nigeria.

For instance, the POP Ceiling light (AKA Rope Light) in Nigeria sells for about ₦10,000. But if your order from Aliexpress, it's less than ₦5,000 just that it would arrive between 14-21 days

Yes, there are a lot of reckless people driving on Lagos Roads, but we still have sane people.

If you can survive Lagos Hustle and bustle, you can survive any where in the world.

Notice that most Police Commissioners that served in Lagos always end up becoming IG, until Buhari came.

A case in point is Mike Okiro and MD Abubakar.

I’ve been asking Seun for this for donkey years and he has refused. Even though he’s very active on Twitter and he sees how effective the block button is on there.

I suspect that the traffic that nonsense fracases like this gets increases his bottom line.

There can be no other reason. Maybe one of the enterprising lads can code an alternative portal to read Nairaland and with modern tools.

This is long overdue. We had this discussion about 7 years ago.

There are far bigger platform than Nairaland that are well moderated.

I game if I see anyone who’s interested. Let’s start with a premium platform for DIY homeowner/hobbyists.

Our job is just to design the framework. There are smart guys who will do the job for cheap.
