Congrats to this great man 👀👀👍👍
WOW !! That was so great. So true. Totally. I loved this interview.😀😌❤️🤎🖤👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Well done more to come
Thank you for sharing this very informative interview video. Congratulations to him as well. Great content.
love from swden
I really enjoyed the interview but the title is misleading. I clicked cause I wanted to see an interview about affordable housing. I was confused and watched til the end. I stayed cause the interview was good on it's own merit. it would help to be more mindful to put the correct title next time
Good on you Nigeria 🇲🇱❤️🇳🇬
Mr Agboola really did a great job by establishing and making is country grow. Despite the fact that he has the opportunity of living in the foreign country he still did something great and meaningful to his country,not like our leaders going there to lavish our money without any positive changes in the country.
Tayo and telling these stories 🤩🤩💯
Security?,Flood risk?,electricity questions?
How affordable are these facilities to the common man (major population constituent)in the concept of allocative efficiency.
Laide – I should be in Lagos next year. Let’s talk.
Big man how you dey. Long time. I went to Bellerbys college with him. Remember when He moved back to Nigeria. Great to see that big thinks are being achieved.
The place that the Naira is right now, it is good to invest, in 5 years time the Naira will be stronger. Hopefully it will appreciate by at least 30%, without considering gas export.
Dem do carry my name oooooo 😢😊😊
33 And today, you cannot be saved outside the Message of Prophet Kacou Philippe. Why? Because the Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. What He did for the past generations, He will always do it. It is by a living prophet in your time that you must believe to be saved and it is the test of your time. You must overcome the churches and the seducers of your time and accept the only and unique prophet that mankind is fighting against to have eternal Life. He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Please check the subtitles before posting as some key things said are incorrectly subtitled. Great video though… Ive met him before
The tokenization aspect of investing in apartments here is what got me 😮
This guy is the real deal
Amazing
Well done but where the affordable homes?
These guy is very practical and pure❤
Gbam! He said it , MINDSET.
change your mindset
wow!
Nigeria is not Africa. If he's not building houses in Liberia, Senegal, Congo, South Africa or Ethiopia than he's not building houses for Africans. He's building houses for Nigerians. Africa is not a monolith, it's not a country and one country in it doesn't represent the entire continent. Stop calling it as such….
Great. Thank You For Your Work.
More and more everyday my African brothers impress me😋💕💕💕💕
Stop blaming leaders, kick out the foreigners
This is one of best conversations I've heard from Africans lately. Thanks @Tayo
Impressive and challenging.
This can make somebody cry. If the situation in Nigeria were to be good and safe for living, I am sure many Nigerians would come back home to Nigeria to start something. Nigeria is really an investor's haven but for the unconquerable insecurity situation in Nigeria. It's just awful in Nigeria. All those Igbo UGM who are into killing and shooting people in the south east must stop and begin to employ their inherited talents to do something like this man and other successful Nigerians.
Fantastic mindset of the fearured person. Afrika is growing 💪🏿
Thank you, for this inspiring video!!
Good job, building the Country ✌🏻
I legitimately have zero respect for Africans considering they're massacring Caucasians and stealing land from them. I hope the worst of you and all you "help". Fail.
Оборот товаров импорт и экспорт из Африки
Все хорошо всё отлично
Но нам бы хотелось увидеть бизнес производства, завод продукты, цех предприятия , производства товаров на начальном и итоговой этапа, новых микро макро экономика стартапы
❤❤❤
Greetings Tayo Alina, great interview, it awesome that Nigerian are returning home to build in Nigeria. This is another success story in Nigeria, there thousands Nigerians that need assisted as the population there is huge. Its no accident that Africa is behind the majority of the plant in all areas. May you reach 500k soon. Thanks for sharing….
Imperial College London, one of the best uni's in London. That is a new model of living, interesting but practical
