7 Things To Do To Avoid Omoniles Wahala


7 THINGS TO DO TO AVOID OMONILES AND LAND GRABBERS WAHALA IN LAGOS

Guide yourself from Omoniles wahala if you must deal with them. Omonile as they are known in Lagos Nigeria connotes the Traditional or Indigenes Owners of Landed Properties and because of the so many crises these people have generated in the past, they are mostly being afraid of by potential Land Buyers.  Many is scarce to come by nowadays, hence people are being careful of buying lands that they eventually loss to the same people they bought it from.

Omoniles employ the antics of selling landed properties to multiple buyers, reselling and reselling of already sold land to another buyer most especially that the land has appreciated and they will relocate the original buyer to more distant place (if there is any), collection of taxes and on Land already sold, selling of disputed Land to another intended buyer.  This trend has continued for a long time and many people have fallen victim of Omoniles or Land Grabbers.


The Government on her part has made concerted effort possible to stem the menace of Omoniles or Land Grabbers to ensure a lasting solution to curb the menace or criminal activities of these unguided elements called Omoniles, or Land Grabbers because of the nuisance or threat they have constituted to the State by eroding the peace enjoyed by the Citizenry.  Since the Government cannot provide housing for all, is a very welcome development those who can afford to build for Commercial or Residential to do so, in order to address the need for affordable housing deficit being experienced especially in a populated state like Lagos. However, for some unknown or political reasons if is not paying off.

However, as an Investor or Developer or potential Land Buyer, it imperative to know certain things about the mode of operation of Omoniles or Land Grabbers in Lagos, and maybe  in some parts of Nigeria, so as to guide yourself jealously in taking the right decision or direction to take when dealing with Land Issues.

What to Save You From Omoniles or Land Grabbers Wahala In Lagos, Consider the Following Facts;

1.   RESPECT AND NOT CONFRONTATIONAL

Sometimes, merely hearing the Name “Omonile”, we are beclouded with frear.  Kingly note that “The Omoniles” are human being just like you are; they have blood running in their system and therefore should not be afraid of when dealing with them.  Instead, study and understand what make them thick.  By so doing you will understand, know them and know how to deal with them. 

2.   MONEY IN HANDS NEVER THEIR FRIEND

If you have money, you will always be Omoniles favourite.  Omoniles are money driven and materialistic in nature, their love for money is essential in their lives. Onces you understand this, you will be able to keep them at bay.

All Omoniles or Land Grabbers are affluence lovers, When they sell land, they never have any reservation for themselves which is what makes them to always come back to you to request for money once they once they got earlier is exhausted on all kinds of frivolous spending like getting additional wife, Naming, Ceremonies, burials and other fun affairs.

3.   KNOW THAT OMONILES WILL ALWAYS CALL FOR MORE

When Buying land from Omoniles, please always make sure you have some reserved or extra money as they are Oliver Twist as would come back to request for more.  Sometimes, because of the complexity of the family structure, they exhaust whatever is being shared among themselves quicker than expected which will make them to come back to you for more.


If they requested for money and you could not find any, they will result to militancy and will find a way of extorting the money by force.

4.   SHOW LOVE TO THE PEOPLE NOTHING IS TOO SMALL

In Land Purchase dealing with Omoniles, always try as much as possible to show them love when you visit so they start to feel you are part of them. Patronize, play with them and attend their functions (if it the kind of functions you could attend) and sometimes, dine with them.  Visit the pole who sold to you often bearing a small gift and make sure you especially have something for the small boys around or the most aged around them.

5.   DO NOT BE STINGY ON THEM

During Land Purchase from Omoniles, don’t deal with the Father or Head of the family alone, make sure you equally evolved the Children as well because your problem with Omoniles will start or be solved not the Father who sold to you, but the small boys whom you ignored, especially when the Father or the Head of the Family are not more. The Young ones are the one that go inside the bush to disturb your construction or erection of your building; hence you need to recognize them during purchase.

The Young ones would be the one to grow and would remember how stingy you were and will show you pepper.

6.   IDENTIFY THE POWER BROKER IN THE FAMILY

When you want to buy land from Omonile, understand and identify the Power Brokers among them and make sure you become his intimate friend.  They could either be the Oba, Baale, Chief or Head of the Family.

7.   ASK QUESTIONS AND DOCUMENT ALL TRANSACTIONS

When dealing with Omoniles, ask cogent and specific questions that will save you from enough troubles in the future and when making payments, ensure that you document the whole process.  Take pictures with the people involved, write down your agreement, do video recording (if necessary) of your final conversation and collect your receipt.  Take immediate possession of your Land no matter how small by putting some number of blocks or you could make foundation if you are financially buoyant enough.

Leaving your Land bare for a very long time will make vulnerable and attractive for Omoniles or Land Grabber to resell, but anything on it will discourage them or any prospective Buyer.

FOOD FOR THOUGH

With the above illustrated few points, we believe it should be able to guide you in your dealing with Omonile.

The Untold Story About Ibeju Lekki Community

The Untold Story About Ibeju Lekki 50 Years Ago
How It Was Founded Over 500 Years Ago
Everybody knows the thriving community called Ibeju Lekki in Lagos. It is the new Lagos. It is a new fast growing city in Lagos. And it is gradually becoming a hub of real estate activities, that is where everybody wants to live now. That is where everyone is buying land now and the pace of development there is dizzying. Majority of the players in the real estate sector play in that axis. But not many people know the story of Ibeju-Lekki.
 Only a few know the story of that popular community called Ibeju kingdom. It is one of the prime locations in Lagos State, a commercial nerve centre that Nigeria is proud of. Naturally, the kingdom could pass for a tourist centre from all ramifications. How? Wait until the rich culture of these people is developed specially. Ibeju kingdom is located in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area.
This quiet kingdom actually derived its name “Ibeju” from the historical three parcels of land separated by swamp. As a result of this natural arrangement, Ageduwa one of Oduduwa’s sons was said to have migrated into this area in search of a camping site; despite the fact that he wanted a camping site, his choice was informed by the fact that the land must not be too far from the lagoon. He was also attracted to the current location of the town as epitomized by the peninsula because he noticed that the spot was about the largest of the three parcels of land fronting its shores (Oju-Agbe).
Having taken and settled on this part of the area, he merely named it after its size “Ibeju” meaning this land is the largest.
Indeed, the Ibeju kingdom, apart from its heritage, is unarguably one of the biggest in Lagos State. Today some refer to it as the new Lagos. Apparently, many people are not surprised at the level of its civilization because of the uniqueness of its culture and political content & tradition as it compares with other centres of power in Yoruba and Benin.The founder, prince Agbeduwa, a great hunter was said to have migrated from Ile-Ife just like his brother Alado had done earlier. Alado, who later became the Olu Benin of Benin was said to have moved from Benin City while Agbeduwa eventually settled in Lagos- that was not all.
Agbeduwa was said to have been informed about where he must settle by Ifa Oracle earlier to secure a future for his descendants. He was told in clear terms that he must dwell in a place that is near the lagoon but not far from the sea. It is only in such a location, that his kingdom would abundantly spread and his descendants be blessed with stupendous prosperity.
No wonder! Today, Ibeju has three significant trees “Omogi Meta Nibeju” these trees are said to have lived for about eight hundred (800) years and each of these trees has its own significance to the lives and people of Ibeju. The first is believed to be a producer of money, the second does not produce money, instead it produces the best of beads while the third is said to be father of all dresses.
 That implies that it produces the best of dresses anyone could think of. That is not all, despite what they produce for the people of Ibeju, they are sacred and are not meant to be reached by all and sundry. For instance, these trees are neither to be touched physically nor their leaves plucked by just anybody. This is only possible after a particular ritual is carried out or the Oba himself has spoken with them.
 By these trees is the Oju-Owa or central shrine of the people.
How Agbeduwa, who had initially visited his brother in Benin (Alado) got to Ibjeu up till now-remains a mystery. He was said to have landed at a place now called Oju-Agbe in Ibeju miraculously. He remained there for a number of days gaming before returning to Ile-Ife to brief his family about the discoveries.
 On his return, he came up with a broader idea of surveying the whole area. Arising from this endeavours, he got to the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Upon this, he was further strengthened and convinced to dwell in there conscious of the earlier proclamation of the Ifa Oracle. He later departed for his ancestral home Ile-Ife. He returned the third time to his new discovery, this time around; he finally decided to settle down there-his new found home in line with Ifa Oracle. However, he brought his family members along with him including his wives and children and other relatives such as, Alaro, Ajaye and Ogunmodede.
The first building erected by Agbeduwa and his people today, houses the Agbala Agemo shrine at Idimu, the Akoko tree initially planted in front of the town which is still at that spot till this present day.
PLACES INHABITED BY THE EARLY SETTLERS
In creating homesteads and domiciles; in the new land, Agbeduwa with his family later moved to a place called Idi-Irin in Abejoye Quarters during the reign of his highness Oba Ailoye, who nicknamed himself “Abebejoye”. It was at this quarters that they established a shrine to worship their gods and goddesses: Igbo-Oro, Igbo-Eluku, Ogun-Oba,Oju-Olokun, Obalufon and many others.
Agbeduwa founded subsequently Ehin-Osa village and encouraged one of his relatives named Ogumodede to settle down in order to defend the area against enemies that might come from the North.
At Ehin-Osa village, they crossed to the opposite land and landed at the spot which is now called Oju-Airo in Epe. Agbeduwa ordered Alaro, one of the wonderful women to settle there and she dwelt at the shore. She was the first person to step her foot on the land.
Alaro’s charm pot was at the shore while the charm pot of Ogunmodede was placed at Igbo-Oro Ogunmodede in Epe. Ogunmodede moved from Ehin-Osa to Ilogun village opposite Ejirin village where his shrine is located till this day. Agbe and Alaro are being worshipped and offered the same sacrifice till this day by the people of Ibeju. Ajaye, another wonderful woman was married to Chief Olofin of Lagos but she died barren.
 In commemoration of Ajaye, the people of Ibeju still have Ajaye’s shrine in Ibeju and they worship her every year. As such, they are called by their Oriki “Omo Ajaye elenini ido” meaning the children of Ajaye who betrayed her husband at Ido. Kaje, a hunter by occupation came to Ibeju and dwelt at a spot now known as Aro-Quarters. Kaje, Sobokunrin, Sifiyon and Ogbe all migrated from Idi-Ewon (a compound name) from Ijebu-Ode. When they left Ijebu-Ode, they first settled at Aro Quarters in Ibeju Agbe.
Historically, Ogbe is a junior sister to Kaje; the four of them have the same father but share different mothers. Thereafter, they left Ibeju to Orimedu. On getting to the Shore of Orimedu River, Ogbe the sister to Kaje was bitten by a viper which led to her untimely death. This was as a result of the fact that the brothers left her in search of a comfortable place to dwell at Orimedu.
After the death of Ogbe, she was buried along with the viper after necessary traditional rites has been performed on her. The brothers Kaje, Sobokunrin and Sifiyon dwelt in Orimedu for a number of years.
Sobokunrin and Sifiyon later settled in Iberekedo after consulting with Ifa Oracle on their next place of abode but Kaje their brother did not move with them. Rather, he was shuttling between Orimedu, Iberekodo and Ibeju until he later settled fully in Ibeju. Aromire with other people came and settled, at Ibomido quarters.
Chief Sasore who came from Ode-Omi settled at Epebi quarters with Eleku family. Oniwonlu’s family Orisafunwa family (Eletu Odibo); settled at Iga-Oba quarters while Aladeseso lived at Ladeseso compound in Ibeju with Chief Odofin. Later, one of the grand sons of Agbeduwa moved from Abejoye to develop Oke-Itun quarters.
Having settled at Ibeju, Prince Agbeduwa founded Oriemedu village and used the place for the worshipping of Olokun (god of the sea). He named the village Oriemedu : Oko-Ori Imedu” farm on the humus soil. “Odun”, one of his sons dwelt at Orimedu with his children at the spot known as Abejoye quarters. It was gathered that Kaye, his relatives Sifiyon, Sibonkunren and Ogbe, their sister, left Ibeju for Orimedu.
 Akodo village was founded by Lumoye, one of the Oyebolujo’s sons. The land extended to Ojo-Oto near Lekki which was boundary of Oba Onibeju and Lenuwa of Ode-Omi, Iberekodo and Eleko were founded by Sobokunren and Sifiyon- the borders of Kaje. Adesan Aladeseso founded Magbon-Aide and Solu village; Okun Beju was founded b Odigan, the son of Oyebolujo. He, Oyemade extended the Onibeju kingdom’s boundary to Maroko village near Lagos; Iwerekun village was founded by Orisafunwa the Eletu Odibo and Ogunfayo- the son of Oyebolujo; Awofin village was founded by Orisafunwa the Eletu Odibo and Ogunfayo the son of Oyebolujo; Awofin village was founded by Badesusa alias Iwon-Ilu-Laseso; Bogije village was founded by Badesusa, Orisafunwaaa Ogunfayo. Eputu villa found by Ogunfayo- the villages in Beju area are under the umbrella of the Onibeju.
 The inhabitants of the places necessarily pay homage to the Oba-Oniju of Ibeju and every years Baales’ and Chief with their families come to Ibeju to perform, the traditional rites and Ebi festival at Ibeju till the present day.
Ibeju gradually became a well populated town, the people decided by majority votes to install Agbeduwa, the founder of Ibeju as the king of Ibeju kingdom.
The installation and coronation days are symbolic in the lives of the people of Ibeju as they are upheld as the various states in Nigeria also flock into the town in great numbers.
After three days of installation, the king will proceed to “Ipe-Ibi” that temporary chamber; there, he would spend three months before final coronation takes place. The coronation day takes place at Enu-Owa. The Enu-Owa is a consecrated place in the town’s square; at this venue, both the Oba and other traditional chiefs are crowned. At this village square both the Oba and his Chiefs have to dance to the “Gbedu Music” with their sword-Ida in their hands, paying visits to important shrines in the town. The members of Ddi-Cult, the principal councilors of the state, now known as Kingmakers perform all the traditional rites for both the Oba and Chiefs.
The Onibeju royal family is made up of three ruling houses: the Agbejoye Ruling House, Oniwonlu
Ruling House and theAladeseso Ruling House.

Self Discipline Is Ultimate To A Successful Life

THE HABIT OF SELF-DISCIPLINE


Fortunately, you can develop the habit of self-discipline.  The regular practice of disciplining yourself to do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not becomes stronger and stronger as you practice it. You refuse to make excuses.

Bad habits are easy to form, but hard to live with.  Good habits are hard to form, but very easy to live with.  And as Goethe said, "Everything is hard before it's easy.

It is hard to form the habits of self-discipline, self-mastery,n and self-control, but once you have developed them they become automatic and easy to practice.  When the habits of self-discipline are firmly entrenched in your behaviour, you start to feel uncomfortable when you are not behaving in a self-disciplined manner.

The best news is that all habits are 
learnable. You can learn any 
habit you need to  learn in order 
to become the kind of person 
that you want to become. You 
can become an excellent
person by practicing self-discipline
 whenever it is call for.

Every practice of self-discipline strengthens every other discipline.  Unfortunately, every weakness in discipline weakness your other disciplines as well.

To develop the habit of self-discipline, you first make a firm decision about how you will behave in a particular area of activity.  You the refuse to allow exceptions until the habit of self-discipline in that area is firmly establish.  Each time you slip, as you will, you resolve once again to keep practicing self-discipline until it becomes easier for you to behave in a disciplined way than to behave in an undisciplined way (Food For Thought).
