Nowenuse: What are you even going on about? City v City, Metro v Metro, whichever way you want Nairobi still thrashes Lagos. lol.
Nakuru is a serene clean city that makes everyone who visits it fall in love with it. ......and what the hell do you mean by market city? lol. Some of the dumb excuses you people give. SMH. Are you trying to say the millions of people in Onitsha don't live in Onitsha but commute there on a daily basis? Onitsha is a damn large city with over 1M people - whether it's a market city, mining city, school city, port city, toilet city, sex city or whatever dumb name you wish to give it, it doesn't deserve to be in the shape it is. That is a shame to the cities of Africa. You guys really need lessons in city planning - cities like Onitsha, Aba, Abeokuta, Ibadan, Kano et all are really depressing. Enugu still has nothing on Nakuru other than size though it is a massive improvement from Onitsha. Enugu www.nairaland.com/attachments/3724655_enuguslum1_jpeg44135297e945c466606d6caef1eae590 |

Nowenuse: The problem with you is using online blogs to make your conclusions. Everywhere in the world, even in the USA, people complain about low quality housing and cities generally. I could find you a million blogs of Nigerians complaining of high rent in Lagos. BTW you seriously need to read a book. Lagos is the second most expensive city in Africa on housing - I wonder why you keep denying that. You also realize your yearly payment of rent locks out many Nigerians from accessing decent housing. Most low class people can't pay a year's rent at once. How do you guys even survive? Me for example, I rarely stay in a single place for more than one year continuously due to the kind of job I do. - I can imagine myself paying a years rent in Nairobi then staying for 6 months, move to Mombasa, pay a year's rent stay for three months, move to Eldoret pay a years rent, stay for one month - what a loss? How's do low income people even live with that? No wonder you have so many old poorly maintained houses in your cities. Below is an article of Lagos resident complaining and demanding monthly rent pay. http://www.informationng.com/2016/04/house-rent-should-be-paid-on-a-monthly-basis-and-affordable-to-all-fct-minister.html This one here explains that your continous laments of Nairobi catering only for the rich is actually projecting the sufferings of Lagosians and Nigerians. Apparently, your leaders don't care about poor people's housing. http://saharareporters.com/2018/05/16/lagos-govt-chasing-away-poor-rich-otodo-gbame-evictees-lament You even pay 5 year rent for business premises? How do poor people survive in Nigeria seriously? You're making me realize Nigeria is even more messed up than I thought. http://punchng.com/traders-lament-shun-karu-market-over-high-rent/ Just like I said, the Surulere prices you've been posting are false. A three bedroom house in Surulere costs an average of 1.5M Naira - paid annually. https://newtelegraphonline.com/2017/12/vacant-houses-high-rents-persist-lagos-abuja/ |

Nowenuse: You do realize you're just explaining why Nigeria is so messed up? The only reasons why countries develop are:- 1. Harmonious living amongst their people. 2. Culture of Discipline 3. Good management with low corruption. 4. Better resource management You're simply telling us that your country has failed at all those. |

Nowenuse: 1. Ethiopia was never colonized. That alone is enough reason to ignore you for getting a simple fact wrong. I decide to help you though. 2. One, there aren't so many countries in the world with 80 Million people and above but those that exist, most of them were once colonized. Basically most countries were once colonized in their history - another fact you got wrong. The British colonized US, Japan colonized large sections of China, The British colonized parts of China too (which are interestingly currently the richest parts of China), Britain was once colonized by the Roman empire (though Britain has less than 80M people), Brazil was a colony of portugal, Mexico was a colony of spain, Indonesia was colonized by the Netherlands, Egypt was colonized by Britain and so was India and Pakistan, Iran wasn;t recently colonized but historically it was repeatedly colonized by different foreign powers the most famous one being Alexander the great's Macedonia, The British Colonized Bangladesh, Phillipines was colonized by Spain and the USA, Vietnam was colonized by France and Germany was once colonized by the Roman Empire. Basically the only countries with over 80 million people that have no records of ever being ruled by an external power are Japan, Russia and Ethiopia. Once again, you provided false information due to lack of knowledge and ignorance and probably shi.t.ty education. 3. Apparently again there aren't many countries that are equally divided into two religions. Even Sudan that you quoted was not equally divided into two. The Muslims were the majority just like Kenya where the Christians are the majority but we have a sizeable Muslim number. For one, if Sudan had equal Muslim and Christians perhaps they wouldn't have separated since the Muslims wouldn't dominate the Christians the way the did forcing the division. In fact the only countries I know that are divided into two religions equally are Nigeria and Tanzania. This means your only example is Tanzania and Tanzania is very stable. You have no reason to face instability due to religion. Once again, you proved your ignorance and lack of knowledge. 4. Population is never a reason to be underdeveloped. Many highly populated countries are developed. 3 Likes |

NairobiWalker2: Payment of annual and monthly rents both come with their pros and cons. You should do more research to understand that. If you want a house for a period shorter than a year, you can have an agreement with your housing agent and you could pay for 6 months or 3 months. I have done that before. Private ownership of houses is predominant in Nigeria and different house owners have their conditions at times, especially when the demand is high. Yeah, if you continue to search on different sites and agencies, you will find far cheaper houses in Surulere. Some sites only host modern expensive houses while others host a different range as I have showed you time and over. 1 Like |

Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by NairobiWalker2: 12:37pm On Jun 02, 2018 |
Nowenuse: There is no pros in annual payment of rent buddy, absolutely no single pro. I know many people who can comfortably pay KES 15K per month but ask them to pay the whole amount for the year (180K) and they wouldn't. An 'agreement'. Pretty convenient but it goes without saying that a Landlord would agree a 3 month pay when somebody else is offering a whole year's pay. Considering you normally pay annually, I'm pretty sure most landlords come with a disclaimer that one has to strictly pay a year's rent before being allowed into the house. Anyway, you lie so much that's why you keep contradicting yourself. Nowenuse: Why the sudden change of heart sir? Isn't you the same person who said this? Nowenuse: and your friend added this? nelxxy: Anyway, like I said before, you're the kind of person who can say anything as long as you want your argument to stand.
The sites you give me are all hoaxes my friend. Lagos is know for it's high rent. I search for rent in Surulere and all I get is in the range of 1M, 2M, 3M with a few costing 500k or 700K and considering much of Surulere is practically a slum then those 500K are probably the slummish ones. It is preposterous for you to post here a big maisonette with an air conditioner and a Pathfinder parked outside claiming it's low class housing in Nigeria costing 350k Naira per year - like, are you so stupid you think everyone is stupid? What kind of a low class person can afford to drive a Pathfinder in Africa? Be careful before you post some of the things you post here. Use some common sense. 2 Likes |

NairobiWalker2: I know all these things you wrote up here very well and more. I am a lover of history. A good chunk of Ethiopia was occupied by the Italians and Ethiopia once fell to Italy, though for a short time. Asides America which is around 400 years old, you didn't really show me any large country which is advanced, did you? Sudan had a larger percentage of christians/Animists than Kenya have muslims. The south sudanese were also heavily united and occupied one uniform region. Kenyan muslims are not united or share a common region or cultures. The Swahilis to the coasts and the Somalis to the north, very untypical of the south Sudanese. So you see that the analogy is not there. Tanzania was heavily Swahilized (unified) under one language by Nyerere and tribal differences were enliminated. Do you know that a Southern Nigerian feels like a complete stranger in Maiduguri for instance? No language, culture or religious similarity. A southern Nigerian feels more welcomed in Cameroon or Ghana than Northern Nigeria. All Tanzanians speak one language. |

Nowenuse: That's exactly what I wanted you to realize so that next time a country performs better than Nigeria, you accept it's because you've underperformed rather than bringing up excuses like population, colonization, religion, civil war, ancient kingdoms, people not demolishing ancient houses and all the crappy excuses you've been giving on this thread. 2 Likes |

NairobiWalker2: It seems like English is your problem. No agent or site will advertise a monthly rent for instance. Mind you, I never said any agent will accept monthly rent from you, however on special cases, you can appeal for a quarterly or halfyear pay. I did this while I was in my final year in the university in Benin. I had only 6 months left till I graduated and my rent expired. I explained to my agent and he saw reasons with me and accepted my half year payment. This does not happen on normal occasions, they are exceptions. I wonder what part of this english is so hard for you. Yes, annual rents come with an immunity of 3-6 months quit notice before you can be forcefully evicted from your appartment. So in a case where I loose my job and my rent expires at the same time. I have some period of grace. You do not have this privilege under monthly pay of rent, do you? How do you guys even live thinking of paying your rent every month? What if your salary was delayed for that month by your employer, what happens? In Nigeria, some people even delay their payment for many months by pleading, maybe after 6 months when the agent is tired of pleas, they are issued a quit notice and they enjoy another 6 months (making it 1 year free) before moving out Can that happen under monthly payment? If you think those sites are all hoaxes, then why don't you contact the agencies and have a friend in Nigeria go and confirm for you if they are real? Or better still come down yourself to verify? Cos I do not know what other info I can give you asides that. |

Nowenuse: No, I am not in a position to prove your love for history but one thing I can prove is, you don't know history. For one, if you knew, you wouldn't come up with your ridiculous assertion that no colonized country with over 80M people is doing better than Nigeria. You've probably googled this s**t about Ethiopia after I schooled you. Once more I school you, Ethiopia was not colonized. It was briefly occupied by Italians in 1936 - Occupation is not colonization. See? You don't know much history. You can google but it's easy to poke holes in someone who depends on google. Asides America which is around 400 years old, you didn't really show me any large country which is advanced, did you?Wow! You're really a special case aren't you? Now you're changing goal posts again like you always do. Now it's no longer about population and colonization but age of a country right? Anyway, most of the countries I mentioned are more progressed than Nigeria and the worst ones (India, Bangladesh, Pakistan et al) are at the same level with Nigeria. Let me name them for you - USA, Brazil, Germany, China, Mexico, Indonesia, Philipines, Egypt, Vietnam - they are all more economically progressed than Nigeria. I didn't say the ratios are exactly the same. I said the Sudan ratios aren't equal between Christian and Muslims like you claimed.
What are you trying to explain to me seriously? I prove to you stuff that you had no idea about and now you turn around and start lecturing me on the knowledge that I just gave you?

Nowenuse:So how does this cra.p you posted explain the pros of annual rent pay if I may ask? In Kenya, there is a 3 months eviction notice so no. That's still not a pro, at least not worth it and it does not help poor people get housing either. Somebody who can raise KES 15K per month but can't raise KES 180K at once won't manage to raise 180K at once just because some 3 month immunity is offered. That's a question I should be asking you. You're straight out of college on your first job. Your salary is 100K Naira which is about the average salary for a fresh graduate in Nigeria. Annual rent in Sulurele is 700,000 Naira. How are you going to pay and you have nothing and you're straight from the University? www.nairaland.com/attachments/5268042_vllkyt19tgdgoda0j_f7c289ca_jpeg3652ec4a9ef8c663d68f7d22c67c10f1 https://www.naij.com/1103088-this-graduates-earn-nigeria-starting-salary.html
Dude, you're not saying anything. Just accept annual rent is too expensive for low class people. Even here in Kenya people delay with rent, monthly rent, and it can go for several months depending on how linient your landlord is. But when you rent a house for the first time you must pay rent in full plus a deposit amount which is a percentage of the rent or a full months rent.
I have already confirmed to you several things. There is no way the house you posted can cost an equivalent of KES 8K per month and definitely no way it's a low class housing (with a Pathfinder parked outside). If that's 8K per month then what is the rent of this which represent what most of Lagos looks like? |
Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by theenchanter: 1:44pm On Jun 02, 2018 |
NairobiWalker2:rent payment have it's pros n cons here, not all states n landlords accept annual rents at a go, some may decide to collect rents every month, some every quarter,some won't even mind to receive it irregularly as long as the rent is payed. It all depends on how it's negotiated with d landlord. I don't know ur source stating surulere as practically a slum but it's not a slum and yes; Lagos rent is very high in Nigeria, there's no place in surulere that cost as high as 2m and above, it's around 600k for a 2br apartment per annum and a 3br may cost up to 1m. |
