#Enginewayz Time and chance freestyle with my bro @KEMXXXI ... EngineBoyz are up 🚂🌠

It just dawned on me now that it’s actually stupid making primary and secondary school students wear white socks in a state and country filled with red soil. Who made that rule?

Cement is the least concern if we are being sincere about building houses in this country

@Adrianius29 @ReutersAfrica What will be your solution if he wakes up one day and start arresting and prosecuting individualas who do not agree to his actions

@ReutersAfrica What good is democracy if there is too much instability and corruption among the ruling classes as well as foreign influences able to manipulate elections and bribe their way into country in order get access to mineral wealth at the expense of the citizens living there.

Burkina Faso's military leader, who seized power in a coup in September 2022, told journalists that "people need to forget about democracy" and that "democracy kills", the latest sign he aims to rule for the long term. reuters.com/world/africa/f…

Everyone agrees Nigeria needs affordable housing. But almost no one wants to hear the truth about it. I’ve sat in meetings. I’ve read articles. I’ve listened to endless arguments among people. I’ve listened to developers, financiers, regulators, and “experts” debate this issue from every angle. And everything keeps leading to one uncomfortable truth: The way we’re building today can never deliver affordable housing. Let’s start with what we must stop pretending about. 1. Scattered houses are a luxury, not a solution The Nigerian real estate industry is obsessed with horizontal expansion—duplexes here, bungalows there, gated estates that consume land but house very few people. This model is inherently expensive: • It wastes land • It multiplies infrastructure costs • It increases transportation burden • It locks housing into car-dependent, poorly serviced locations Yet we keep pushing it because it looks aspirational. The truth? Sprawl is a rich-country habit. Nigeria is not rich. 2. Cheap land does not equal affordable housing One of the biggest lies in our market is this: “We bought the land cheap, so the houses are affordable.” You cannot buy land for ₦250,000 per hectare in a rural fringe, resell plots at ₦3 million, add minimal infrastructure, and call it affordable housing. That is land arbitrage, not housing policy. Affordable housing is not defined by: • Where the land is • How far it is from jobs • Or how attractive the brochure looks It is defined by: • Monthly affordability • Access to livelihood • Quality of life at scale If people spend half their income on transport because housing is far away, it is not affordable — even if the house itself is cheap. 3. If we want affordable housing, someone must bleed This is the part no one likes to say out loud. True affordable housing requires: • Lower margins • Longer capital cycles • Scale instead of exclusivity • Discipline instead of vanity Developers must accept smaller profits per unit. Governments must give up land speculation and rent-seeking. Financiers must stop demanding luxury-level returns from social infrastructure. Affordability is a sacrifice economy. You don’t build it to extract maximum profit — you build it to serve maximum people. 4. The only real path is vertical, dense, and planned If we are serious, the solution is not complicated — just uncomfortable. Affordable housing must be: • Vertical: mid-rise and high-rise buildings that use land efficiently • Dense: more people per hectare, lower cost per household • Well-designed: dignity, light, ventilation, beauty — without excess • Infrastructure-complete: water, power, waste, roads, schools, healthcare • Transit-aware: close to jobs, or directly connected to them Density is not the enemy. Poor planning is. Vertical housing done right is: • Cheaper per unit • Easier to service • More sustainable • More inclusive 5. “Affordable” does not mean ugly or undignified Another lie we tell ourselves is that affordable housing must look cheap. That is false. What it must avoid is: • Excessive space per unit • Unnecessary finishes • Status-driven architecture What it must prioritize is: • Function • Durability • Human experience • Community spaces You can build artificially pleasing environments — clean, modern, organized — without luxury pricing. Beauty is a design choice, not a cost line. 6. This is a system problem, not a unit problem Nigeria cannot solve housing one estate at a time. We need: • City-scale thinking • Standardized designs • Industrialized construction methods • Policy alignment across land, finance, transport, and utilities Housing must be treated as infrastructure, not just real estate. Until then, we will keep producing: • Empty estates • Unsold “luxury” units • A growing housing deficit • And a population priced out of dignity

This is a lifetime memory for both of them ❤️

@Chukwuemerigom @Bidmasworld @Adamthallith Bro how about Engineering

@Bidmasworld @Adamthallith Lool except you get luxury of time or your family ground. But if na you be family miracle.... make I stop here

As someone who’s been in UK for about 3yrs, these are my reality check (most base on personal experience). My top 15. 1. You cannot survive abroad if you’re lazy, especially if you’re alone. 2. If you don’t keep to time, you’re going to have problems, 1min late can cost you a lot. 3. You might actually stop praying for some worldly luxury if you live abroad, because they’re not so hard to get. I’m talking about owing cars and the likes. 4. Every successful people I’ve seen in UK (men and women) are people in happy marriage. 5. If you cannot ask for help, you’re likely going to suffer. 6. It’s easier to secure work that doesn’t care about academic certificates than the ones that cares about academic certificates. 7. You are better abroad as a married person than being single. 8. You will meet celebrities in random places and no one really cares about them. I think the only celebrities people really give so much relevance to in the UK are active footballers. 9. Your colleague at work are not your friends. 10. Oyinbo laughing at you is not genuine, do not mistake their shining of teeth for likeness. 11. If you meet Oyinbo girl that you desire sexual or romantic relationship with, ask for their ID, everyone in UK have at least one ID that shows their age, do not believe whatever she calls her age for you (especially if you meet them in night club or any social gathering that is open to everyone). 12. Nobody is too busy abroad not to talk to people back in home country, except they’re in prison. 13. If your naija girlfriend japa before you and there is no plan for you to go and join her soon, she’s likely going to break up with you sooner. 14. There is a community in London, that is you take pictures there and post, you can tell anyone who doesn’t know you personally that you’re in Lagos and they’ll believe you, because almost everything you’ll see in Lagos is there. 15. If you’re a professional(doctor, nurse, engineer and the likes) japa, you’ll make money abroad.
