This is a rather frivolous generalisation. Ibadan is big. Some streets may have petty thieves, but Ibadan is still very very safe. Which area are you talking about.

Ibadan is largely unsafe. I'm tired. You're not safe at home, at work , on the streets, everywhere. People who have met me know I don't have a lifestyle that exposes me to things like this.

A very good business mentor and owner of GTIN motors (MR Chris) in ibadan was shot dead and his car stolen around Oluyole area of Ibadan on Monday while returning from work. This man fully relocated from Germany 2 years ago to start GTIN motors in Nigeria and now he's dead.

A very rich man, deals in Luxury cars. He should have just stayed back there. If you are abroad and govt is telling you to come back and establish a business here, tell them to provide security first

agarawu23:
oga, free this man joor he go waste your list cos his name is appearing too much

mavverick:
House

Which should be done first.

Electrical fittings
OR
Painting internal & external.

Electrical fittings: Electrician is telling me that nohow, there will be stains on the wall after they are done with the fittings and that painter can come later to do touchup.

It got me thinking, if they do the fittings first, would it not be stained by the painting ?

Any comments welcome.

My friend forget that one.

Most of us here are not buying into that.

True that,Lol, building a house is not rocket science, the baba mufus of the world are good, my late grandmothers house is more than 50 years old in the village and still standing, built by local artisans during her life time, no structural defect, just the regular cleaning and mopping of all the rooms and yet we have buildings in Nigeria built by quacks and it collapses within 3 or 4 years

Do you care to share some of the safe part of Ibadan? I may be interested to know those areas.

agarawu23:
baba, do the fittings first, plaster the holes left by the sides of the fittings.
buy paper tape and tape the fittings before painting.

Bro
Lots of places in Ibadan are safe
The few burglars occur in new areas : elebu inside, akobo Oju irin, etc
This are kind of burglars that a Normal german shepherd would deter and it happens most Sunday's mornings or when the occupants are out

KolaShangOne:


This last one, I was coming from the mall at Sango, drove through General gas and was heading to a house just before Dizenghoff. I got to the gate of the house I was going to, parked and as I was stepping out, the boys came on a bike and the whole shebang happened around 8pm.

There are also guys that touch the wall of your house and everyone sleeps off. Confirmed Jazz.

We also have car snatches and the likes.

Very correct. Those people were trained by Oyibo people. Those years, apprentices take 10 years to learn the job not now that some run away from their masters after 6 months and call themselves bricklayers.

I was at Treasure Park estate few weeks back and ALL the Tilers, Bricklayers, Plumbers etc were from Togo. Things have changed my broda. If you are lucky, you get a good Baba Mufu, if you're not, he will use your money to marry a 4th wife.

EgunMogaji:


Or five Dobermans and two Hausa men that gets yearly bonus on top of their salary.
