To be honest, those guys are producing to international standard but those colorful South African bricks are sweeter.

The ones produced in OGUN state are just too monotonous. They were used on Obasanjo Presidential Library.

O yes I do know.
But to be honest it's hard to actually know where your role in his build is now that there is an issue..........

Engineer
Supervisor
Builder
Consultant
Contractor
Facilitator
Project Manager
Etc, etc.....
The question of the ages Bosun in one breath will claim to be in charge and share pictures showing he us in charge all of the sudden in a second breath he will claim that there are project consultants/managers who he is now answerable too and cannot even buy a grain of sand without their input. Oga which one you dey or no dey? grin

You as the so called lead contractor on complex builds they will supply inferior materials and you accept same just shows the kind of incompetence your clients have been faced with on all your builds.

Too bad

I always advise folks, just because you wrote it and force me to sign it doesn't make it legally binding. No one can be compelled to sign away their legal right.

Nice job to the plaintiff and his legal eagle. And Judgy Wudgy too. Knowing the Nigerian landscape some of these cases and judgements have extra judicial deadly consequences.

Personally I’ll prefer them to put it on before installation as you’ll get better coverage that way. Even if I have to hire a laborer to do it for me at extra cost.

It’s your house and your responsibility. All the trades will move on after the project and you’ll end up living with all the decisions made during the build process, good and bad.

Good morning..

They've started making the carcass... I told them to put it before oh but they insisted it is better when they are done...

I'll let others chime in but IMHO it's better to do it on the ground when you can get good coverage and penetration. This is one of those lessons learned that I talked about earlier. On future build you can ensure things are done to your requirements.

Don't sweat it too much, just make sure that they are diligent in applying it overhead.

Also, some of these are DELIBERATE decisions to lock the owner into costly after sales service.

In the construction industry, there are people like that too. But for those of you that are committed and take your jobs serious, you are distinguished.

The mind of a thief works in mysterious ways, especially a sociopathic thief. That's why some thief's will sneak into the house of a lady and steal panties to sniff, instead of her gold chain.

This Van bottel na crazy guy! I gave up on him when he asked me to bring out my shoe collection to compete with the okrika ok grin grin grin Anyway, nice to see your energy directed to where it’s needed.

My beer parlour analogy from 6/7 years ago still applies. Honourable gentlemen should not allow a club member who has shown his stripes over and over again to mix freely.

It’s not that hard to make money in this industry and on this thread. You just need to gb’ori duro (set your head straight), behave yourself, execute with excellence and see referral business expand your coast. Many can testify to that.

When you treat your customers well, it’s easy for them to testify and recommend you. . . . . . easy money! Unless you are a fly by night vendor, there’s no need to get greedy. Be fair and honest in your dealings and watch the money come, along with peace of mind, the sacred alafia that money cannot buy. Make money that you can enjoy without disgrace and abuku, insults.

Just because you are a builder does not mean you should make all the money you want in life from one project. Slow and steady is not a bad term. The thing about dishonest money is “easy come, easy go.” With all the millions that have passed through his hands, what is N3xt’s net worth today? How much liquid cash can he boast of after more than 10 years as a builder? Not customers’ money o, money that 100% belongs to him.

The thing about riches is when you are jeje doing your own thing, working hard and with integrity; one day you’ll look up and realize that you have more than you could imagine. True, enduring, peace-accompanied, permanent blessings are from God not from theft.

Thanks to all that have spoken and continue to speak up against this scourge. Special mention to Dunka and Stopthecap, may God protect all that belongs to you. It’s easier to just keep quiet but you gentlemen have not. God bless una flenti flenti.
