I have not given him any job before but I have been discussing with him topsy23 for the past one week as I am about commiting some fund for some supplies of electrical cables this week.I will definitely be back to give a feedback as to his efficiency and integrity.

P:S I sure will like this to be a reference point for our transaction.



Boss my integrity is at stake, assuming you are in Lagos I can deliver the cables and collect money in delivery . I have done so many of these in Lagos..U
You can ask Twinskenny Kolashong, Mr Upon,(regular customer from Portharcourt, Kkonsult, Mr Idowu, Mr. Tola Ayegbaju, Mr. Mayor etc

Your funds are very safe. I referred someone to him about 2 weeks ago and the cables were picked up at Coleman office. Original cable guaranteed.

Over 400k was sent and he delivered.

Attached is a screenshot of a video made at the pick up at the factory.

Passing such treated waste (effluent sludge) into public drainage withoht authorization from relevant authorities is very insensitive and posses health hazard to the people considering that most drainage systems in Nigeria were not designed for effluent sludge collection.

Drainage systems in Nigeria were designed/built for run off rain water and in some cases they are open drainage system (no cover) and some if not all re emptied to natural water bodies (rivers and lakes).

For this digester to be effective, the effluent sludge and sludge resulting from Anaerobic/Aerobic treatment has to be collected by dedicated sewage lines for further treatment /direct use or collected regualarly by an approved faceal sludge manager.

I stand to be corrected tho..but if this guy is just emptying his effluent sludge into public drainage without authorization from relevant authorities then this is totally wrong.

Edit.

Attached to this post is his explanation of our the system works in another thread.

With the little information provided thus far, it seems there will be large amount of baterial and other pathogens in the effluent sludge.

It will be interesting to see if our Engr. ve done any water analysis in the past and recieved the appropiate authorization before emptying this effluent sludge into public drainage system.

@emman44 please your response is needed here

Good day. I need this great house and engineers advice. I started a 4bedroom bungalow which weve roofed and plastered. Of recent, weve noticed crack both horizontal and vertical cracks on the walls and the floor. Engineer said it's as a result of differential settlement and it can be worked on.
He said working on it involves cracking the walls and just filling and plastering with cement and sand.
Someone told me it involves breaking the walls and inserting reinforcement (iron rods) and plastering with mixed sand,cement and granite.

He insists that it's not necessary. Please engineers in the house, is it necessary or not

Hello house, I have a 4 bedroom bungalow that I just completed the wood work, my carpenter gave me quotation of the roofing materials which I believe it is too much. He said I'm going to use 472.3sqm of aluminum step tiles. The actual land area developed is 199sqm, I took time to calculate the roof area according to what I have on the roof plan I got 221sqm. The highest point of the roof pitch cannot exceed 45 degrees(the plank was raised by 4m). Please I need someone that can help me get the actual area of the step tiles I need to buy. I can send the roof plan to u. Thanks.

Actually it’s good to separate it but I have seen it in many places even in some of our members house here both are combine together but in a bearable way.

The security house is something 8*8 rooms then toilet 8*4 the toilet shear wall with the generator house of 8*8 and the generator is medium size SOUND proof type.

@Dennis3D, @KolashangOne and at Rotecch77 very grateful for your contribution.

The way I looked at it... the live-in Security Mallam is considered part of the family since some of my family lives is in his hand.
So, my security house is designed and built for him to also enjoy the place. Aventures the Great designed and built it for me.
It comprises of big room, I think room itself is like 8x10 or 10x10, I have forgotten now.. with kitchen and bathroom/toilet and a verandah added.
So whatever security house you are building, make sure your Security Man/Woman will also be comfortable in it.
My Generator house is also built separate away from the Security house, all designed and built by Aventures.
Thank you.

Oga Taiwo. Can you explain in details how this your Digester work in replacement for soakaways and septic tanks. Thank you.

Hajji M.
Sorry for my late response..
The system does a fast separation of solid and liquid... The Digester is two layers 1. The upper layer where the all degradable material are been digested
2. Lower layer where the water is been filter and go out to the pit created for dry land and drainage or canal for high water level....

The upper layers consist of fibre which create micro-organism in thousands that feed on the waste while the lower layer consist of filters that make the water going out odourless and environmental friendly.
It works in both dry land and high water area...
Advantage of sewage Diegester
1. No odour
2. No evacuation,
3. Little space required
4. Cheaper than the spetic tank

Disadvantage
The use of condoms and sanitary pads.. But if it is for hotel we have another design for that..
It can be in both residential and commercial including high rise buildings....

I dont even like chanelling even bath&kitchen water to public drainage.

Lets wait for the horse to speak.
Til he gives a brief but satisfactory explanation of how the thing works, i doubt many people here will be willing to take the risk.

Soak away systems in nigeria are not that expensive and work well.my present abode has 2 pits, and this is the 8th year, no sign of it getting full. 2 apartments

I have done the system before and the owner of the house is using it presently I posted the pics here some pages back around 2018 ending or early last years I tag it (3 compartments septic tank)

But what I did is that I passed the last water from the section C into SUCKAWAY because there is not drainage in that street presently. Hope to passed it into drainage in future.

Although my is a bigger type.
In this year 2020 my vision is to see how I can convert the system to BIOGAS.

I will post the finishing pics ( the one I did then)later today if check my achieve.

The problem is that in some area you can’t run your waste into the drainage they will not allow you NEVER. That is the reason why I’m thinking of biogas in this 2020. Few people have done this yes,

I will also design a prototype on how this thing work in few days here, I will set up a system and you people will see how the system work. Let me stop here for now.

Happy wkd to you all

Yes here is the current pics

The size is 5*7, 5*7, 4*7 while the suck away is 7*6. The depth is 10ft for the compartment while the suckaway is 6ft.

Why this size is that i designed it to last for 40yrs and above because we don’t know the policy give will bring in nearest future.

This particular one is designed to be used by 5bedrooms duplex, 1unit of 2bedroom flat and 2units of mini flat.

Thanks very much sir.. The Digester is been design in different ways depending on the soil formation of every of our site.. For dry land the water from the toilet waste goes into the ground while where we have a high level water area we treat the water to be environmental friendly and channel through to the drainage or canal as the case may be..
