Good evening house, it seems prices are back on the rise ; regarding cement. My supplier just called alerting me of a pending increase again.

Last I bought was 3,700 now it’s 3,900 less that 2 months interval. (Direct from lafarge)

If anyone is interested in splitting 800 bags(400/400) around the lekki axis. Let me know.

Less than 2 month. God will help us in this country.

If Buhari remove subsidy as planned ending of this month or February price of things will go up again.

Pls try to buy some materials this January if you have the money. I know January is the longest month in the history of calendar grin

My bosses in the house took those words already from my mouth before I could reply you sir, they now use cellous and cement but we just still call it asbestos, that is why we still have Nigerite, like oga registerin pointed out



This what we must condemn or educate whoever we see doing this mentioned in quote above, destroying the old ones, by act of crushing it and using it as rubble's on the road, some resident will be happy, some will even be thanking the person that did it, not knowing, that person doing such a thing unknowingly to him or herself as well is polluting and exposing that environment to cancer, and this act should be totally condemn and stop, this an eyes openers, kudos to the bosses above me for sharing this @stopthecap
Actually, it requires a huge amount of exposure, and inhalation of a great amount of asbestos before it could be cancerous.
The amount of asbestos released by the rubble is negligent.
Just same way we all inhale carbon monoxide daily,but in a negligible amount.

clearly understood but we must still discourage those doing it in larger quantities, have u been to a warehouse before that all they use there was this old cancerous asbestos roofing sheets, even government officials will come there pack it, grind it, mix with three quarters granites and pour it on the pot holes, and vehicles will be passing on it, polluting our air with cancerous chemicals, I wish I didn't factory reset my phone, i would have shown some videos, but nevertheless, we all most see them and stop it. It dangerous, not the new one they are producing with cellous now, we are all knowledgeable and google is there for us all.

A case study.

There was this particular buildings, I was giving the contract by a nairalander.

Note: I have learnt never to mention anyone name here because this a public forum monitor by local and international observances, especially this offtopic thread created by hajji is one of the most popular thread in Africa, you can google trend it, having said this.

I was giving this contract to renovate this houses in Lekki phase one.

Our first stage is to remove the asbestos on it and replace it with stone coated.

it was this particular ancient abestoes that look like Milano stones coated now.

I was in charge from the beginning to the end.

I told my carpenters that will remove it about the danger of the work will collected that they need to cover their noses that what they about to do is cancerous, but they are laymen without knowledge of what am talking about, it was two storey buildings standing together seperatly, this was about 7 years ago, thebfunniest things was that the money I gave them to use and buy protective guides they pocketed it, I was watching them, with close observation, I locked myself inside my vehicle, my ac on, they are throwing it down with care, from the roof top, the moment they started removing it with care like eggs, I knew in mind they wish they can use it to go and cover their, houses that already in roofing level, but also I knew even if the one that gave me the contract dash them I will reject it.

It is good to be knowledgeable, money is not wisdom and wisdom is not money, they are two different things.

Not quite long the man that gave me this contract, drove in with his vehicle, some aboki guys, upon sighting him, they knew theirselves, ran behind his vehicle, they spoke few words, and they started packing it, my workers are throwing it down from the top roof with care, the aboki started prostraing, about 5 of them in numbers to my oga wey give me the work, I was shaking my head, but who am I to talk, my client, I have no say, because I knew this man is a PHD holder in medicine, a Dr.

Then when my workers finished removing all the asbestos from the roof, and came down they find nothing, I now took my phone and call them from my vehicle that oga had told some aboki to come and park it I guess they want to use to cover their packo house ( that is how much Nigerians are suffering) I could see the pains in their eyes, that and no matter what I should have allow them to even pay the oga little thing so they can use it, even when I have told them how dangerous that thing can be, they don't mind.

I make sure they bath each one of them before they enter the vehicle before I transport them to oworoshoki, and everyone find his square roots, I still wonder why a doc will do that up till date.

But I make sure I told them that this things they are looking at is cancerous.

I come in peace.

Makes sense. The septic tank is actually made from 'glass fiber reinforced plastic fiber and unsaturated polyester resin' according to the manufacturer. Anyway, even if we had a sewer system, I guess the actual cost of constructing biodigester systems in the conventional ways we do it here at the moment is not so high as to warrant importing ready made ones. If you get my drift.....

I got your drift. However, nigeria like all things imported. I won't be surprised if that love extended to shit storage smiley

This is not quite true. Google how cancer could occur when tissues are exposed to carcinogens. There is stochastic and determinant effect. While determinant effect has a threshold, stochastic does not. Any amount of exposure could possible trigger biological adverse effect.

As an illustration, when there is a little drizzle of rain on mosaic tiles, one cannot tell which of the tiles would get wet by the rain, obviously not all of them would. The mosaic tiles in this example represent body tissues while the rain is asbestos and the wet tiles are cancerous tissues.
That is how the billions of DNA in human body behave when exposed to cancer causing agents. No one knows exactly what quantity of the agent would break the sequence bond of the nucleotide in the DNA. That breakage is called mutation, a precursor to cancer.

Albeit, level of exposure matters.
We all have inhaled asbestos in one way or another..
Smoking causes cancer but it's not all that smoke that gets it.

Concrete tank stands for upstairs look ugly....

You are correct. Remember that illustration of the mosaic tiles? It was not all of them that got wet from the little rain. The truth is one can never tell when it will happen. It could, on the first day of exposure.
