Ogas in the house, I need your opinion

I was advised to use 9" brick block for my foundation perimeter and 6" for inner walls and then continue building with 6".

Any specific advantage of using 9" block to 6" block for foundation perimeter?

That's why I said the cost depends on the materials, design and your location. Well with your design as seen on the picture, I think that 10k is just ok

I need a quick advice good people
I just concluded filling my house and set for flooring BUT my bricklayer wants another money to wet d filling with water to have it further settle for possible balance as there is still some laterite left. Again he wants another money for ramming before the proper flooring commence which has its own labour fees.

Please do l have to pay for wetting and then ramming after paying to spread d laterite ?

Where is the water coming from?

If your are buying water at the site, then buy. If you have a borehole, then pay your bricklayer a labour fee to pour water.

Ramming, yes, you need to pay.

you dont need to pay for wetting, if you have borehole on site, just connect hose to the tap and run it over the surface for 14 hrs, it will naturally settle and you sand fill again to make up level. human movement on site wii also ram/compact the laterite.
If your project have a time line, you can hire a small compactor to ram the soil.

Yes, he needs to water it well so that it can be compacted very nicely. He's on point. If left not compacted well can cause pot holes or "craters". I did same for mine
