Thanks bro for sharing.

There are five conflict management/resolution strategies

1. Avoiding (no winner/no loser)
2. Accommodating (lose/win)
3. Compromising (win some/lose some)
4. Competing (win/lose)
5. Collaborating (win/win)

I found out a lot of homeowners on nairaland are always playing to win all the time. Issues will arise, the best way forward is to collaborate to solve the problem.

_______

Case Study
Price of materials went up during my ongoing build, we never went back for variation nor stopped the project. We worked together (collaborate) to find a common ground where everyone wins.

The process of working through differences will lead to creative solutions that will satisfy both parties' concerns.

But to some, na fight to finish grin grin

You sound like a project manager, are you?

Total perimeter is 90.7m.
7 bundles of galvanize barb wire

is it necessary to do the fence capping prior to installation of the barb wires?

( the fence currently does not have any fence cap).

This is it. At times, i wish i have a building project in Abuja. Stones are such in abundance here. I can even get few guys and take them to any rock in Abuja. The rocks are free and everywhere. The process is simple get firewood, set some portion of the rock on fire, get some musle guys with heavy sledge hammer and the rock start peeling off in sheets. I have seen this process done so many times. The only time i built in abuja was for a short commercial lease that didn't require all the trims.

Focusmind:


Sure. Natural stones and bricks anytime for me. Get those Abeokuta/Ondo stones, break them to different pieces and sizes and get a good baba Lati to finish the work. You would like the natural feel of the building. Note also that those stones are not cheap except if you are residing within the SW states.

If you have access to those stones and they come cheap to you, you may decide to cover a greater percentage of the wall areas with stones. The feel will be everlasting - come rain, come shine, it remaineth the same.

Natural stones and bricks will always make your building to stand out. Whoever passes your street will always take a second look at the building.

Sound like hasty judgement, what we preach against everytime. Adding the curse word again to this is totally unacceptable.
i have been following this brabus accusations for over 11years on nairaland now. Not 1 2 or 3 victims and i have always wanted him to proved everyone wrong but he failed. Some time 2014 I listened yo the recorded call btw him and a client and it really exposed things about him. Why can't we try to be human instead of causing others pains by defrauding them. This brabus may never change again.

We have this in abundance in the south west too. The same thing for clay. I think we just got lazier all in the name of advancement.

Faradng is also doing great with natural stone walls and ornaments.

What do you think?

My Ogas @spyder880 @abdulwastecx @segzy14 @n3xt @mufutau55 @Egunmogaji2 and everyone else..

What do you think about using stamped concrete floor indoors? It is definitely cheaper than using tiles.

It's definitely cheaper than using tiles. One can try that out on a small low-cost project I guess

somehow:


Without boasting or sounding too confident. You cant defraud me and still be reachable without me nailing you big time. As long as i have enough evidence to prove that you defrauded me. You will hang.

I tried ignoring this because you're either living in a different country or you're being willfully blind to the situation in the country.

I'll take your first paragraph as nothing but boastful talk to gain internet points. Go against anybody with more means, power and time than you in Nigeria and you'll be the one in jail regardless of who's guilty or innocent.

So if he stole from you, get the evidence of theft and sue him to court.

Regarding your second paragraph, a search of the accused's name on google will show you he was arraigned before a magistrate court for alleged fraud, with said case reported on a national newspaper. I could be wrong but I believe the accused himself comment on this thread about said case. If you care about evidence, which I doubt you do, you'll see said case died a slow death due to the plaintiff being unavailable (lives in another country, potential lost income and more expenses attending a court case in Nigeria) for a prolonged hearing.

Fraudsters are going to jail daily, let's stop giving excuses. Rather than cry online that someone stole from you, put him behind bars if he truly stole from you as long as he's reachable.

I don't know which country you live in, same country where Al Mustapha, Oluomo, many ex-presidents, policemen, lecturers, primary school teachers sexually molesting kids, local iyalojas embezzling owo ajo, cultists, yahoo boys, Naira Marley, Mompha, even everyday people giving bribes, disobeying traffic laws, all of which are walking the streets free, not in jail. I know a lot of people who have committed fraud (I'm not accusing anyone of fraud, just making a point that your point is pointless, pun intended) and walking the street free. The country is a shitshow when it comes to upholding law and order. Besides, most cases of fraud in Nigeria are civil cases rather than criminal cases. Only the poor goes to jail in Nigeria.

I'm not defending or making a case for either side. I'm just surprised at some of the awful defenses I have seen here. If you're going to defend something, at least do so from a logical perspective rather than making moot points that portray you as a fanboy/fangirl.

I'm not replying to any further illogical responses. The thread should go on with its intended business.

@hamtabfawaz
I saw some good stuffs (wainscot, wall panel etc) that I like in your nairaland portfolio. Have you used kalsi plank before? Do you do fit outs and dry constructions (plasterboard, fiber cement boards and the likes)?

@hapiness44
I notice what you’re doing. It got my attention. We’d get in touch soon.

You can reach me at my permanent shop grin https://www.kobocity.com/u/brabus

Brabus is n3xt.
