@prockhomes: Lagos State Deputy Governor, Obafemi Hamzat, has advised young workers not to feel pressured to immediately rent expensive apartments, urging them to consider living with their parents, relatives or in shared accommodation while building their finances. Hamzat gave the advice during a question-and-answer session with Nigeria Info FM on Thursday while responding to concerns about how young workers earning low incomes could cope with rising rents in Lagos. He was asked how a 22-year-old earning N100,000 monthly could afford a self-contained apartment or mini-flat costing about N1m annually. Hamzat said young people should consider accommodation that reflects their income rather than trying to start from the top. Don’t let us misunderstand ourselves as a people. We are cultural people. Do you understand? So, if I start work as a young person and I’m not married, a lot of us live with our parents. A lot of us live with our cousins,” Hamzat said. “You know, go to Turkey, for example, and see how young people also live.” He said young workers should not feel compelled to immediately move into self-contained apartments if their incomes could not support such accommodation. what's your take on this

This man has already done 8 years as a deputy governor, why will he be the governorship candidate again?... So, another 8 years(making 16 years). Is this a monarchy or a chieftaincy title?

So now, my parents lives in sango Ota and I secured a job on the island, are you saying I should be transporting myself all the way from sango to island every day and expect me to clock in on or before 9am?… what about the transportation fare ?… where should that be ?… Omoh let’s be realistic here … majority of those working in Lagos don’t have their parents in Lagos or they have them in a more far place… Because it works for you doesn’t mean it will work for others …

he just said the truth, a 22 yrs old earning 100k per month can still conveniently stay with their parents or relatives to build their finances. how old are many of us when we left our parents house to out own rented apartment? let be guided, you as a caring father who did everything to give your child the best education u could,would u allow him or her to start life on her own at 22?

Some fools will still applaud him for saying this. The percentage of people supporting wicked and evil leaders in this country is the reason we are still retrogressing

Imagine the mentality of people who are leaders in my country. ask him to show you his children. they live in mansions both in Nigeria and abroad. A young man or woman whose parents are not in Lagos or the city where he or she works will live where?

Everything surfacing under this government… all things in the high side. You can imagine the cost of rent before this dispensation, even if they want to work on the economy, are they not with their brain to find a way to cushion the effect. All these balls down to the cost effect on the masses earning low. We never ready for this country… Nonsense debate everywhere… Subsidy gone and they are still paying

When you see the ideas and solutions in the mind of present and future leaders we should be terribly scared of where they are leading us to.

Even Parents can't afford the same rents you are asking their children to live with or share ....House rents generally is in the high side ... Instead of them to regulate the minimum standards charges for some apartments and all...He is here reasoning like say we be dey on the same level with them,and he wants to contest for gubernatorial election...Oju gbogbo yin ma gbo ni 2027...The eyes of the people are opening now
