LIVING YOUR SPACE: My Face-Me-I-Face-You Experience!

By Elisabeth Onuoha.

Before the arrival of the year 2000, so much hopes and aspirations were placed on the coming year by government. Then the year 2000 seem so far away. There were  promises of health for all by the year 2000, education for all by the year 2000, good roads, power, name it, everything was to fall in place, including Housing for all by the year 2000. The year 2000 then held some magic, it was viewed as a time when all our basic amenities will be provided. It was the magical year.

Sadly this magical year has come and gone and Nigeria is still grappling with the challenges of providing these basic amenities. Now we have the vision 2020 in place, same old story. 2020 is going to herald in the much anticipated health for all, housing for all, power, good roads etc. We are waiting.

A house at Ajegunle.

The challenges of providing descent and affordable housing for its citizens still remain a major challenge for the government. Nigeria may be the only place in the world where the mortgage system hardly works. Mortgage here works best for the rich who have access to it. The average Nigerian on the street cannot dream of taking out a mortgage.

As a result of this we have a situation where an individual will scrimp and save to buy a plot of land and then practically starve himself and his family to death because he wants to build a house

Eight out of every 10 people you meet on the streets of Lagos have at one time or the other lived in a face-me-I-face-you apartment.

 The face-me-I-face-you is a local term used for a building with several rooms where tenants share facilities like toilet, bathroom and kitchen. The Iconic face-me-I-face-you has come a long way in Nigeria. The face-me-I-face-you was very popular in the 70s and still is though these days we have more of self contain apartments and mini flats. This is a welcome development which is as a result of people’s desire to have some privacy and not having to wait in line to use the toilet or bathroom.

My early years in Lagos were spent living in a face-me-I-face-you apartment. Yes! I am not ashamed to admit that I have at one point lived in a one room apartment.

My parents came to Lagos after the Nigerian civil war and promptly settled in Ajegunle. From the stories I was told, Ajegungle was a virgin land then, spacious and not as congested as it is now. My parents promptly settled in a one room apartment on Sufianu Street. Mum hated the place because she had to share toilet, bathroom and kitchen with strangers. She was not used to this kind of lifestyle, but this was  what her husband could provide as at then.

Mum was called “oyinbo” by the other tenants because she insisted on proper hygiene in the toilet and bathroom. Cooking in the kitchen was a nightmare for mum; there were stories of mum practically standing guard over her pot in the kitchen.

We did not stay long on Sufianu Street, thanks to a neighbor who came home drunk one night and banged on our door thinking it was his. Mum and Dad thought it was a burglar and a couple of days after that incident we moved to Akogun Street not far from Sufianu Street.
