i used to live in lugbe 10 year ago, i cant remember the name of the place but i do remember that it was a estate that had street lights that were charged by solar panels so every night we had white light coming from outside
In a real sense, there is no middle class. It is either you are rich or poor. No middle ground. There is nothing extremely rich or extremely poor. Though humans will always place classes on these categories.
I enjoyed the beautiful view of lugbe, i lived there for not less than 8 years then moved to gwagwalada for not less than 3 years before relocating overseas. I miss the fun only abuja can provide and the slumming areas. Thanks for taking me down memory lane
Thank you for watching Truezlady. For the planting of trees, except that is done by various estate developers for their project, but to plan trees generally in town, that will not happen. But new districts in Abuja that are planned and developed now, do have that as part of the plans. just like you have a bit of it in Katampe ext. and Guzape. But if you are looking to move to Abuja and greenery is your number consideration, then Maitama, got you covered.
Great documentary. I used to live there myself before I left for Barbados. Rent there used to be N150k for a 2-bedroom 10 years ago. It is now close to a million depending on where you live in Lugbe. I also hear the traffic is now on the crazy side at peak periods. I used to be the chairman of the estate on the right at 07.55 mark.
came to lugbe 20 years ago, most FHA houses were unoccupied, lots of bushes. Now we got estates everywhere and population has explode,4 million damn. Next time come via the police jnx at solid rock sch, its a beautiful new road. Good job and content
Nostalgic! I lived with my cousin in Lugbe FHA about 15 years ago. I lived behind Total filling Station. I see lots of new buildings in places that used to be bushes.
I choose to disagree, 600 - 900k for one bedroom is not low or middle-class but definitely upper class considering that at least 50% and more earn 200,000-300,000 per month. But l like your video and find it interesting. Thanks for the info.
The earlier one invests in these fringe cities in Abuja the better because Abuja seems to be growing very fast with real estate springing up everywhere.
I live in lugbe In federal housing for 9years now. good job bro.. yes d road is bad .. okada say na tudun wada road lol. That's sector f main road u just passed my house. I just sub next time find me I will show u more
Great content. But honestly Abuja is a mess. The city needs to have an elected mayor like other civilized cities instead of a handpicked politician as FCT minister.
@@DavidNkwa besides the city center other parts lack order and much infrastructure. Piped water, street lights, clean streets compared to other cities abroad these things can be improved with an elected mayor rather than having a political appointee as FCT minister.
So if Lugbe alone in the whole of FCT is 4 million, how many million the. Is the entire FCT,. Cuz I can't remember what Abuja has that should attract that population, is it the commerce, industry or entertainment hub that it is, let is know plz
Lol. Abuja has all of that. Plus All federal institute are located in Abuja and govt is the highest employer of labor. Plus foreign Embassies, INGO, donor agency are all located in Abuja. So people relocate because they hope to find better job here. More over Abuja is clean, safe and less stressful. So tell me why people will not come.
Nigeria government need to invest in tall rising structure in this kind of area and should be on lent to private companies to occupy each of the floor. It's a shame that there's no good leader who have such an insight...
@@Southernview3k Abuja is not for tall buildings,I repeat Abuja is not for tall buildings,so you saw tall buildings and you are still complaining about tall buildings?I thought you said you are Nigerian and you based in abroad? You also said you are back to Nigeria that you based in Abuja right now? What is holding you from building tall building for your self in Abuja? You will remain single for the rest of your life because you will never be content with one woman,even if the person kill her self for you,yet will still complain because nothing dey enter your eyes
@@comfortedu5115 That which you wish me shall abundantly befall you and your generation unborn. What an ignorant and silly argument from a bewitch entity whose silly point of view doesn't meant well for the growth of the country.. You seem to satisfied with the way those vast land is being used to build dusty and dirty community filled with weak and gated infrastructures instead of government investing on tall rising buildings to accommodate rentals and buyers the way it's being done in outside world cities. Tall rise buildings as I suggested is for the benefit of the country economy that will generate revenue into Nigeria account and it will attract foreign companies who want to lent instead of building. You keep repeating the junks that filled your empty kink skull that Abuja is not for tall buildings without given any reference to support your false statement.. If Abuja master plan doesn't include tall rising buildings, the world trade center that comprises of 24 and 27 floors wouldn't have been built in Abuja and there wouldn't be any plan to build centenary city in Abuja that has tall buildings. I want to see a well plan cities with good structures, basic amenities and not those gated dirty houses that scattered every part of Abuja like the way it's in Lagos.
Greetings, l am from America. I am considering visiting a friend who lives in Peace Village near the stadium. Can you tell me about it or do a video because I make my decision to visit? Thank you
Nice video✔️.. Bro. do you have any idea the cost of renting a self contained room in any nice area near Glory Dome?.. Is it safe in Lugbe?. Is Solomom Lar way, far from Lugbe.?
If you are looking at renting, you can shoot me an email and I will send you a real estate agents who lives their. And he can answer all your questions. Thank you. nkwafilms@gmail.com
My friend do you know what a 4 million people populated city means? Los Angeles City is a little over 4 million. Yet bigger than most states in Nigeria. Nigerians and exaggeration. Abuja itself is probably less than 1.1 people, how can Lugbe alone be 4 million.
First, that population is based on a demography survey by a private development company. I don't just say things, I do my research. 2. When you say Los Angeles is Bigger than most states in Nigeria, do you mean in terms of landmarks or the population? Not sure you have been to Lugbe or most cities in Nigeria, then you will no it is overpopulated and Los Angeles doesn't come close in numbers. A typical household has about 8 people. Is that what you have in Los Angeles? Abuja is less than 1.1 million people? that's laudable, this means you don't know Abuja. Abuja metropolis (AMAC) alone is much bigger than that. If you add the slums in AMAC, you get 3 times the number, then you add the Fulani community not accounted for lining in those slums. Before you now come to FCT (Federal Capital Territory) which is what you are referring to as Abuja. FCT. Then you will know the number in Abuja is much higher. For your information, there is no data on Nigeria's city or population on the internet that is correct.(undercounted). First, there has never been an accurate census in Nigeria. secondly, those that do the census don't cover everywhere. So take my word for it, I live here, so I have more insight than you do. Good day.
@@DavidNkwa l own properties in both Abuja and Los Angeles. I will stick with my opinion, because l have a personal feel of both cities. Abuja lacks the intensity of a major metropolitan city when compared to even Port Harcourt, talk less of LA. There is no way Abuja population is more than 1.1 million. Los Angeles is over 60 miles sq., or 100km Sq. With heavy and intense human activity and is 4.5 million inhabitants.
@Levi it's great to know you have a feel of this both cities. However I can tell you for free that except you are one of the people who explores the Abuja city intentionally, you wouldn't be able to comprehend it's population by just moving from your house to work. I have lived in Abuja for years not until I started documenting the city that I realised many unknown place people. live. Even in this same Amac someone argued there are no alums untill I decided to document 10 top major slums inside the city. So I know what am saying.
We don't have a modern capital city at all. This city is poorly developed. How can I get rid of these leaders and fix the development of this country? I think every day and I don't know where to start from. I don't like my leaders at all.
You can start by contesting for political post. Councillor, chairman, governor, State assembly...anyone. Complaining on TH-cam will not help to bring the change you want. Am sure you know this
It's a working class district. Working class districts anywhere in the world are never known for their posh looks. It's more always about affordability. Lugbe has its nice areas too.

How can Lugbe be 4+ million people now, what’s the total population of the FCT then?
Like you said then? It's based on statistics gotten from independent research done in Lugbe on population growth in FCT
@@DavidNkwa Lugbe doesn't have a population of 4 million. What is the total population of the FCT?
@Yinka, Lol. Amac alone is more than 4 million. Not even FCT.
Go and ask. Or better still Google the FCT Minister speech
@@DavidNkwa The whole of the FCT is not up to 6 million. When you are wrong you admit instead of arguing blindly.
Ok am arguing blindly? Do you have any official statistics to backup your claim
