What happened to going to block those who plunged the country into the mess and poverty?
My problem with you people is that where you're expected to fight your ground, you end up being used by your yokers.
How can someone's hard work become your issue, are we sane in this country at all?
God help us from this wrong mindset and entitlement mentality.
Jakumo: Hey, well the man felt compelled to pose with his rich man's car in a country where the streets are swarming with hungry people that become enraged when they see signs of great wealth passing in their midst.
The poseur drew attention to the fact that his car is worth more than the lifetime earnings of the entire mob that besieged his car, so he should consider himself lucky that he was not simply kidnapped for ransom and subjected to a series of corrective floggings while in custody.
Helinuse: Then I think the first thing they should have done is to educate people on their culture and traditions, rather than trying to first glamorize the word "KING."
"kingdom" indeed. Even traced back 300 years, no community in the southeast ever had anything that resembled a kingdom, but rather small clans, villages, and families that were fortunate enough to live together in peace, yet were heavily raided and captured by the Ijaw and Ibibios as slavess.
Go and learn before you open your mouth to talk about what you know nothing about.
Historically, coastal Ijaw and Benin (Edo) traders did not run large-scale military campaigns to capture and enslave Igbos; rather, they operated as commercial middlemen who bought and resold captives supplied largely by interior Igbo networks during the Transatlantic slave trade.The Role of Ijaw and Bini in the Slave TradeIjaw Middlemen: Coastal Ijaw city-states (such as Bonny, Nembe, and Kalabari) sat on the waterways of the Niger Delta. They traded with European ships on the coast. They bought enslaved individuals brought down from the hinterlands and sold them to the Europeans.Interior Suppliers: The actual capture of most enslaved Igbos in the hinterland was handled by internal structures, most notably the Aro Confederacy and local groups using the Ibini Ukpabi oracle, local conflicts, and kidnapping. The Ijaw traders acted as economic brokers, not military raiders capturing people deep inside Igboland.Benin Kingdom (Edo): The Kingdom of Benin was a powerful militarized state that engaged in wars of expansion and captured prisoners in its own western and northern spheres. While Benin influenced western Igbo borderlands culturally and politically, large-scale systems of enslavement were part of a broader, multi-ethnic West African commercial network rather than a targeted campaign by Binis against Igbos.
Talk is cheap. Music aside, if you think say your governor get levels, make una near Davido for Edo. Na that time una go know say there was Adeleke before APC, there was Adeleke before your governor dreamt of entering politics. Then you go know say big men get levels and he's not called OBO for nothing. Make una try. Your Tinubu go be the first person to incarcerate your oga and you orchins. I wonder how you people think before talking. The people that controls and generate bulk money to your economy is where this guy belongs to, and you think you can do anyhow to them?

We all know how stressful it could be to find a property to rent/buy. What about the fact that most people fall victims to scammers who at the end of the day, it's either they never owned the supposed property or they a just flipping it illegally from one person to another?
You will agree with me that the who process is becoming more frustrating day by day. So my question is, how can we solve we solve this problem and save Nigerians from losing their hard earned money and stay away from all the troubles that comes with the current crooked process?
Your comments will go a long way to enlighten us all here.
More so, I have a google form that i need response to study the issue and present a solution from my stable.
lawyer: 13 years ago I wrote this Nairaland article Don't Be A Victim. Investigate Every Property Before You Buy Any Land This Year- https://www.nairaland.com/377377/dont-victim-investigate-every-property to educate people to avoid being victims of land and property scams. 13 years later, a horrible number of people, particularly young professionals in this new generation, continue to suffer agonizing losses at the hands of these land and property scammers.
Buying a land or house in Lagos, especially in popular places like Lekki, Ajah, Ibeju Lekki, Epe, Ikorodu, Surulere, Ebute Metta, Yaba, Festac/Ojo and the outskirts of Ikeja/ Maryland/ Isheri North and Alimosho environs has become painful and stressful because of the rise of land scammers and property fraudsters. Every day, thousands of Nigerians both at home and abroad are victims of losing Billions of Naira due to the following reasons:
1. Dubious real estate companies selling lands that have wahala and serious legal problems attached to them or properties with non-existent documents
2. Questionable real estate developers selling houses with defective and bogus title documents or houses built on government lands,
3. Omo-oniles selling family lands with existing community issues or lands with serious court or police cases attached to them,
4. Private Owners of property selling lands or houses that have incomplete documents or faulty titles or homes constructed on lands belonging to the Lagos state.
Last year alone, I know about 200 people that lost Millions of Naira to many shady real estate companies in Ibeju Lekki, and in the end they had no land and are still hopping from one police station to another in an effort to recover their money back, which they will probably never receive from these shady real estate companies because they bought lands with defective titles or no allocation.
I am also aware of another group of people who purchased multi-million Naira homes in Lekki and Ajah from dishonest developers and deceitful Instagram agents only to discover later that the homes either had defects or were not for sale since the true seller did not exist or the documentation for the homes were defective.
I also know a handful of people that fell victim to Omo-oniles who bought community family lands in Ajah and Ibeju lekki worth millions of Naira and at the end of the day lost the land and their money because they bought stolen lands that belonged to other people and resold to them. Other victims bought lands that out rightly belonged to the Lagos State government and any structure put on it will surely be demolished.
In short last year was a bad record year for property victims who lost Billions of Naira of their life savings to Real Estate Thieves and they were all guilty of one thing.
"They all failed to conduct a verification exercise and investigate that property before paying for the land or house"
Many of the victims who were scammed,
1. were either too impatient,
2. some were in a hurry to buy properties without investigating,
3. some refused to listen to advice to calm down and investigate the property,
4. some were too stingy to spend a token to give a property lawyer, licensed surveyor, licensed Agent, broker or estate surveyor to investigate the property,
5. some were just too busy to worry about verifying a property,
6. some entrusted buying a property to their relatives or close friends without monitoring it or getting an independent person,
7. some were excited by the offer and preferred to buy without verifying,
8. some just bought because of the lies they read in the beautiful flyers promising them a piece of an estate that would look like Dubai
9. while many I know just bought properties because of the beautiful agent or marketer they were dealing with without using their senses.
10. Some were victims of their “I too know” because they read some land purchasing tips online and decided to verify it themselves without covering all the basics.
11. Some were simply not bothered about verifying and put all their trust in the transaction and ended up getting burned.
The summary is that many of them ended up dashing their life savings and family money to a stranger who ended up using their money for frivolous things. These victims ended up having no good land after they were scammed neither have they been refunded their money.
How can you work so hard to save money for many months or years ranging from ₦1,000,000 to ₦100,000,000 and above to buy a land or house and then refuse to pay a small token to verify the property because you are "stingy" or feel pressured by the agent or marketer to pay for the property without exercising caution to verify it?
Instead of giving away your life savings to a land thief and then scrambling to find a lawyer or the police to help you recover the money when problems arise, if you are so wealthy and have money to throw away, why not donate it to an orphanage or NGO? The worst aspect is that many victims are willing to pay 10 times as much money to reclaim the land or money at the police station when the land wahala arises. If so, does this make sense?
I also know many people are ignorant about the property-buying tricks, tips, and laws of buying land in Lagos so this thread would be dedicated to answering all property-buying questions and would be updated with articles and information about buying a fraud-free land or house in Lagos without falling victim to fraud this year.
On no account should this advice be substituted for conducting a physical verification on land done by a property lawyer. It is just for educational purposes so that no Jibiti developer, wuru-wuru agent or wayo omonile can put wool on your eyes anymore. it is only for educational purposes.

Omonilelawyer’s motto when it comes to land or property purchase is
“OGA NO VEX - I TRUST YOU BUT I MUST VERIFY YOU. IF YOU WAN VEX, PLEASE VEX BUT I MUST STILL VERIFY YOU”
See you in the comments section.
What can you say about a digital system that takes away all the stressful and fraudulent process of renting/buying a house?
Get well fast and face your greatest humiliation with our cohorts. This time around is never gonna be business as usual. No amount of rigging which gave you the ticket will push you to Abia Govt. House. Dr Alex Otti is coming.... In Peter obi's voice...anybody who stands on the way, SO BE IT![color=#990000][/color]
Leebliss13: IMPORTANCE(or madness) of NFT in terms of sustainable Economy
NFTs are uniquely identifiable digital works of art; anything digitally created can potentially be sold as an NFT (including a Tweet). They are frequently associated with cryptocurrency because they must be created and maintained through blockchain database systems. Much like the cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Litecoin support their eponymous currencies, Ethereum supports Ether. Ethereum supports most NFTs which, like cryptocurrency, have long chains of code that uniquely identify and tether them to a single point of origin. A difference between an NFT and a cryptocurrency is that a non-fungible token cannot be substituted by another—it is truly unique, like a social security number or the original Mona Lisa. On the other hand, one Bitcoin can be traded for another—they are interchangeable. Hence the term “non-fungible” token.
Financial experts around the world are constantly adapting to the changing landscape of cryptocurrency. Expert or not, the question is, “Will cryptocurrency be economically sustainable?” The question that needs to follow this and, quite frankly, any innovation subsequently must be, “is it environmentally sustainable?” One calculation suggests that the average NFT has a carbon footprint equal to more than a month’s electricity usage for a person living in the EU. The technology behind cryptocurrencies and thus, NFTs is hugely power hungry. Most cryptocurrencies are based on a system called “proof of work” (PoW). This PoW system requires that a certain amount of time and effort be exerted before being able to add another block to the chain. The reason this energy intensive system is required is because most cryptocurrencies are decentralized. There’s no server farm to manage the data; information is saved on a global network of individual computers, called “nodes,” and each node needs to undergo processes to be in compliance with the PoW system.
