Lagos (Nigeria) Real Estate Investment Report Q3:2017 Lagos (Nigeria) Real Estate Investment Report Q3:2017 The Search for Stability Over the last three years, Nigeria has experienced unprecedented volatility brought about by a fall in the oil price, poor policy decisions and political instability. We are only just emerging from recession and hopefully have learnt the hard lessons necessary to build a more robust, sustainable and broad based economy. We are finally beginning to see renewed international investor interest. Jim Rogers, a well-known international investor recently pointed to Nigeria as one his emerging/frontier market picks offering the potential for strong growth on the back of policy improvements1. Our latest report highlights the need for a stable economic environment as a basis for future growth. Eko Energy Estate, Eko Atlantic City, Victoria Island, Lagos MARKET SUMMARY: Investment International investors are once again beginning to take a closer look at opportunities in the Nigerian markets as they search for higher yields in distressed opportunities Prime Land Prime land prices have remained stable in Naira and Dollar terms with a low appreciation rate of just one per cent over the last year Commercial The downward re-pricing of office space rents in a weak market has brought the price point Office of Class B space low enough to allow access to a new audience of professional service firms formerly using converted residential accommodation for offices Student The sector offers high yields and stable cashflow on the back of strong demand and limited Housing supply. However financing challenges exist due to the long term nature of the investment and institutional preference for risk free treasury bills 1.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW The economy grew by 0.55 per cent over the 2nd quarter signifying that we had finally emerged from recession after five consecutive quarters of negative growth. The price of crude stood at US$58 p/b by the end of the third quarter, the increased price and production increases allowing for an accrual of foreign reserves which stood at US$32.5Bn by the end of the third quarter an increase of a third on October 2016 lows of US$24Bn. An increase in the availability of dollars has also assisted the real economy and the manufacturing sector in particular. The Nigerian exchange rate has now been stable at $1/N305 for the past year moderating inflationary pressures which have fallen on a consistent month by month basis from a January high of 18.72 per cent to the current September figure of 15.98 per cent, albeit with considerable work to be done to bring inflation back to a long term single digit target. The economy is still very weak and policy initiatives that lead to a broader base for growth beyond oil are essential to make the economy more resilient to future shocks.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT Local real estate and construction lending rates are hitting new highs of up to 36 per cent2. These high lending rates speak to the bank’s unwillingness to lend to the real sector based on their perception of risk compared to the high yields available from risk free treasury bills. They are also a reflection of the high percentage of non-performing loans within the banking system that have left the bank’s with considerable quantities of property that were used as collateral to secure a lot of the historical borrowing that took place prior to the recession. The banks are now seeking to off-load these distressed assets and are finding out that a considerable number of the asset current values have fallen well below the values of the outstanding loan amounts. For international investors whose returns are often benchmarked in dollars, the over-riding view is that of a long term trend in the fall of the Naira against the Dollar. Even where the investment is showing a strong Naira return, factoring in the long term depreciation of the local currency may turn an attractive Naira return into a less attractive dollar return. However, international investors are still driven to seek higher returns and are still drawn to the potential high returns in the Nigerian markets. Investors are currently staying away from long term investments where there is greater exposure to the potential of a depreciating Naira and are more attracted to investments that 2 www.cbn.gov.ng/Out/2017/BSD/Deposit and Lending Rates in the Banking Industry as at September 8, 2017.pdf 2 Copyright © MCORE, 2017.

PRIME LAND Current Lagos Island prime land average sales prices in receding order are as follows; Eko Atlantic N524,000 / $1,700 psqm, Banana Island N385,000 / $1,261 psqm, Victoria Island N380,000 / $1,250 psqm, Ikoyi N369,000 / $1,210 psqm, Lekki Phase 1 N195,000 / $640 psqm, Oniru N168,000 / $550 psqm. Lagos Island Prime Land Prices (N/psqm, Oct 2016 - Sept 2017) 600,000 500,000 400,000 300,000 200,000 100,000 - Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May June July August September VI EKO ATLANTIC IKOYI BANANA ISL ONIRU LEKKI 1 Notes 1. Land value data is derived from advertised sales prices 2. Eko Atlantic prices are benchmarked in US$ and are blended waterfront, non-waterfront and secondary market prices 3. CBN USD/NGN official rate used for conversion Prices have remained stable over the last year showing a growth rate of only 1 per cent in both Naira and USD terms. Oniru has shown the strongest growth of 10 per cent while Victoria Island at the other end of the scale has fallen by 5 per cent over the last year. Eko Atlantic remains the most expensive of the locations we track with a 37 per cent premium above neighbouring Victoria Island. The premium reflects the improved standards of infrastructure in the Eko Atlantic City but is also reflective of Eko Atlantic land prices benchmarked in dollars. The gap between Victoria Island, Ikoyi and Banana Island prices has narrowed considerably with these areas falling within a price range of only 4 per cent in relation to each other. Oniru and Lekki Phase 1 prices continue to track each other, both becoming increasingly commercialised as smaller professional businesses convert residential units to office use as an alternative to higher rents prevalent in nearby Victoria Island. COMMERCIAL OFFICE The introduction of the new supply of Class A commercial office space to the Ikoyi and Victoria Island office markets over the last few years combined with a fall away in demand over the same period due to the recession has fermented competition between new higher quality Class A space and older historical Class A space. The new space has pushed the old Class A space down the rankings to re-emerge as Class B space with an attendant negative impact on achievable rents. 3 Copyright © MCORE, 2017. All rights reserved Lagos Real Estate Investment Report Q3: 2017 The new prime Ikoyi/Victoria Island space commands rents as high as $750 psqm, however, rents for Class B space formerly classed as A space have fallen from a high of up to $900psqm a couple of years ago to as low of $450 psqm in order to remain competitive. At these reduced prices, Class B rents are now becoming affordable to a wider array of businesses that used to occupy residential accommodation re-purposed as office space, allowing such businesses to migrate into purpose built office space at rents higher than but still comparable to former residential re-purposed office space.

  • Diatoms and Dinoflagellates of an Estuarine Creek in Lagos
    JournalSci. Res. Dev., 2005/2006, Vol. 10,73‐82 Diatoms and Dinoflagellates of an Estuarine Creek in Lagos. I.C. Onyema*, D.I. Nwankwo and T. Oduleye Department of Marine Sciences, University of Lagos, Akoka‐Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria. ABSTRACT The diatoms and dinoflagellates phytoplankton of an estuarine creek in Lagos was investigated at two stations between July and December, 2004. A total of 37 species centric diatom (18 species) pennate diatoms (12 species) and 7 species of dinoflagellates were recorded. Values of species diversity (1 ‐ 14), abundance (10 ‐ 800 individuals), species richness (0 ‐ 2.40) and Shannon and Weiner index (0 ‐ 2.8f) were higher in the wet period (July ‐ October) than the dry season (November ‐ December). These bio‐indices were higher in station A than Bfor most of the study period. Almost all the diatoms and dinoflagellates recorded for this investigation have been reported by earlier workers for the Lagos lagoon, associated tidal creeks and offshore Lagos. The source of recruitment of the lagoonal dinoflagellates is probably the adjacent sea as most reported species were warm water oceanic forms. Keywords: diatoms, dinoflagellates, plankton, hydrology, salinity. INTRODUCTION In Nigeria there are few studies on the diatoms and dinoflagellates of marine and coastal aquatic ecosystems. Some of these studies are Olaniyan (1957), Nwankwo (1990a), Nwankwo and Kasumu‐Iginla (1997), Nwankwo (1991) and Nwankwo (1997). Other works such as Chindah and Pudo (1991), Nwankwo (1986, 1996), Chindah (1998), Kadiri (1999), Onyema et al. (2003, 2007), Onyema (2007, 2008) have investigated phytoplankton assemblages and pointed out the dominance of diatoms. Diatoms and dinoflagellates are important components of the photosynthetic organisms that form the base of the aquatic food chain (Davis, 1955; Sverdrop et al., 2003).

  • Interrogating British Residential Segregation in Nigeria, 1899-1919
    UCLA Ufahamu: A Journal of African Studies Title Space and Colonial Alterity: Interrogating British Residential Segregation in Nigeria, 1899-1919 Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/98q1c1d1 Journal Ufahamu: A Journal of African Studies, 41(2) ISSN 0041-5715 Author Alozie, Bright Publication Date 2020 DOI 10.5070/F7412046832 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California PART I Essays Space and Colonial Alterity: Interrogating British Residential Segregation in Nigeria, 1899-1919 Bright Alozie Abstract The policy of segregation is undoubtedly a resented feature of colo- nial rule in Africa. However, discussions of the residential racial segregation policy of the British colonial administration in Africa invariably focus on “settler colonies” of South, Central, and East Africa. British colonial West Africa hardly features in such dis- cussions since it is widely believed that these areas, which had no large-scale European settler populations, had no experience relevant to any meaningful discussion of multi-racial colonial relationships. Some studies even deny the existence of racially segregated areas in places other than the settler colonies. Despite evidence that residen- tial racial segregation formed one of the principles that facilitated the implementation of British colonial policy in Nigeria, the Nige- rian experience has not been given a fully coherent treatment. This paper examines Nigeria’s experience of officially directed residen- tial segregation. It argues that while residential segregation policies were justified along policies related to health, sanitation, and dis- ease prevention, the motive also derived from the demonstration of racial supremacy and civilization, which was the ideological justi- fication for empires in Africa.

  • The Succession Dispute to the Throne of Lagos and the British Conquest and Occupation of Lagos
    AFRREV, 10 (3), S/NO 42, JUNE, 2016 An International Multi-disciplinary Journal, Ethiopia Vol. 10(3), Serial No.42, June, 2016: 207-226 ISSN 1994-9057 (Print) ISSN 2070-0083 (Online) Doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/afrrev.v10i3.14 The Succession Dispute to the Throne of Lagos and the British Conquest and Occupation of Lagos Adekoya, Preye Department of International Studies and Diplomacy Benson Idahosa University P.M. B. 1100, Benin City Edo State, Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] G.S.M. +2348027808770 Abstract This paper examined the role and intervention of the British in the internal family dispute relating to the succession to the throne of Lagos that began in the early nineteenth century. That the usuper to the throne of Lagos, Kosoko who was branded a notorious slave trader was abdicated from the throne on the account of his notoriety as a slave trade dealer by the British and his uncle Akintoye, who was also a known slave dealer was re-installed as the ruler of Lagos on the agreement that the British missionaries and traders were given free course unhindered in their operations, lives much to be wondered about. The paper argued that beyond the moves to discontinue the trade in slaves and Christianize the area, there was much more the motivation for entrenching the British economic foothold beginning with Lagos which offered a leeway into the interior and coastal areas and the eventual colonization of Nigeria.

Email: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Aesthetics is a critical reflection on art, culture and nature. It is the principal underlying factor for the works of a particular art movement or theory of art, i.e. cubist aesthetic. However, the conscious effort to recreate aesthetics order in Lagos State is welcomed development creating beauty and ambience environment regardless of diverse groups, religions and socio-cultural differences. This study therefore examines aesthetic characteristics of a number of environmental sculptures and murals at strategic places in Lagos with a view to understanding their socio-cultural context and connotation in the environment. Using qualitative methods, this study relies on field work, while photographs of works were critically analysed. The study extends the frontiers of knowledge on visual literacy of forms, symbols, patterns, and motifs; it creates awareness on the socio-economic benefits of arts and artists in the built environment. Keywords: Aesthetics values, Environment, Visual literacy and Art. INTRODUCTION people can appreciate visual artworks mounted or displayed in the environment.

    data Article Data Analysis of Land Use Change and Urban and Rural Impacts in Lagos State, Nigeria Olalekan O. Onilude 1 and Eric Vaz 2,* 1 Environmental Applied Science and Management-Yeates School of Graduate Studies, Ryerson University, Toronto, ON M5B 2K3, Canada; [email protected] 2 Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, Ryerson University, Toronto, ON M5B 2K3, Canada * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 20 May 2020; Accepted: 9 August 2020; Published: 11 August 2020 Abstract: This study examines land use change and impacts on urban and rural activity in Lagos State, Nigeria. To achieve this, multi-temporal land use and land cover (LULC) datasets derived from the GlobeLand30 product of years 2000 and 2010 for urban and rural areas of Lagos State were imported into ArcMap 10.6 and converted to raster files (raster thematic maps) for spatial analysis in the FRAGSTATS situated in the Patch Analyst. Thus, different landscape metrics were computed to generate statistical results. The results have shown that fragmentation of cultivated lands increased in the rural areas but decreased in the urban areas. Also, the findings display that land-use change resulted in incremental fragmentation of forest in the urban areas, and reduction in the rural areas. The fragmentation measure of diversity increased in the urban areas, while it decreased in the rural areas during the period of study. These results suggest that cultivated land fragmentation is a complex process connected with socio-economic trends at regional and local levels. In addition, this study has shown that landscape metrics can be used to understand the spatial pattern of LULC change in an urban-rural context.
