Aventures:
please beware of kidnappers and 419. It has happened to a renowned builder here, he spent his money to travel by air only to discover it was a scam, thank God it was not a kidnapping issue. please ask a lot of question, let him revealed his identity and his genuine intention. You can initiate a design deal with just survey plan and let him know that the foundation may be subjected to review prior to construction after visiting the site and proper investigation is done. Ihebrooke is bases in east and he has done several design for many NLders without visiting there and some of is has executed his design successfully.
tnx sir.
ALL APPRECIATED.

If possible demand for official documents like CofO, Survey plan, driver's license/International passport and video call. Verify the documents and ensure you're dealing with a genuine client. It should a standard for top contractors.

Documents can all be verifiable and genuine and if the client has bad intentions then you're lost in oblivion.
Always ensure you inform at least 2 persons if you must move outside your location giving all relevant data of supposedly client.

If you have sent me a WhatsApp message and you are expecting a reply from me.... sorry for none reply!
I have just upgraded my phone to Samsung Note8, and I thought that it's a matter of simply copying my old folders from the old phone to the new phones and input my phone number and everything will be dandy in the new phone... sorry NOT.
I have been frustrated trying to get all my chats from 2014 back into the new phone but no luck and WhatsApp has been disabled in the old phone.
Luckily I have all my 40,000 pics and contacts all saved but the chats are gone for now...
So if anyone has a suggestion to remedy my problem, I will surely appre4ciate it. If not, I will just be starting a new chat database with the new phone.
Thank you.

Hajji M.
Sorry to hear that you lose some of chart conversation far back 2014. Why did you put yourself in situation like that, when you may as well give both phone to one of your IT guy in office to take care of it. Or could it be some privacy concern is why you choose not to used that avenue available to you. lol 40k pictures no be joke sha. I' ve not seen that request of what we discussed yesterday, I hope you did not forget.

Sometimes it is very frustrating to try to comprehend your writing by mixing characters and usage of English and pigin language together. I thought I was the only bad writer on this forum. In summary I hope this is not the format you use in trying to secure a contract. This is my special Christmas gift to you. I will recommend you taking English classes from EGUNMOGAJI/DABOOMB. I hope they will take their time in helping you in English language usage. If you are lucky to attend Daboomb classes you must be ready to learn how to write long essays. After graduation you must be creative in your own style of writing to summarize your writing in small paragraphs. Please do not take this as an insult, it's an honest advice that I believe can help moving forward. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in advance. Lets start a New Year with a new beginning.

Which busy? Abeg you’re not busy at all. You’re always here commenting, giving people a headache with your comments.

Simple comma and period, you don’t know how to use.

I suspect you didn’t graduate from any post-graduate institution. You behave like an illiterate sometimes to be very honest.

At least try to improve.

It’s Christmas. Don’t vex me

If Nigeria had central identification number like Social Security Number (SSN) all these wouldn't have been an issue. That's why banks hardly give loans to new businesses even with collateral.

Hajji M.

Haji M this is very straightforward. Your contact list is backed up automatically on google unless you've purposely dis-enabled this function in the past. It may not be possible to save 40,000 high quality photos on your phone alone including your whatsapp chat history due to capacity issue with the phone. So I guess you've been backing up your media automatically on google which means you have a hotmail account, gmail account or an emai account you use in accessing play store.

So put the same SIM in the new phone.

Login to your home WIFI

Google should come up automatically requesting you to enter your email and password; in simple term, you need to login to google.

If google does not prompt you automatically, try accessing play store, this will now prompt you to login to your google account as you can't access play store without registering initially.

If you login successfully, ALL your media and contact list will be accessible.

Let me know if you experienced further difficulties.

We always down grade our Nigerian Security System.
Those areas with SSN still experience such.
Known businesses and individuals have been known to not pay loans given to them by banks.
