when u finally build ur own house, let every Tom and dick be washing their clothes and be flushing the water into the pit

Akell:


Yeah! I said bath water. Bathwater smells as a result of the soaps we use in bathing. Technically, the soaps make the bathwater smell.

So, Imagine 10 households on a street using all kinds of soaps to bath, how do you think their drainage system will smell like? Bro, it all be inhabitable.

Love800:
I still dont get the difference.
I thought both were the same thing.

Mrtaye:

In some areas drainages are covered and some are constructed and properly channeled.... waste water will fill up the soakaway from time to time and you have to keep calling soakaway packers

BeigJawnson:



Soakaways are constructed by digging the ground, blocks are being set inside with spaces in between but no plastering on the walls inside the ground. So any waste going inside will be soaked away.

But the latter, it can't soak away waste becos the walls are plastered...

Love800:
Okay.
So the septic tank, how does it get leveled or drained when filled up?

Enemyofpeace:
We can only shiiiit in the latrine once in a day. No male tenant should talk to any of his wives and daughters, but I managed to fok two of them.

BeigJawnson:


That is why you see those big tankers coming into some estates, to suck out the wastes and everywhere is unpleasant with bad odour...

Akell:


Let's face reality. How many drainages are covered in this Nigeria? If you go through my comments here, I stated that there are soak aways specifically built to accommodate kitchen and bathroom wastes. They don't get filled up because the floor isn't plastered. The water gets absorbed by the surrounding soil. This is different from the septic tank where fecal/toilet wastes goes. The floor of those ones are plastered and can get filled up. Only toilet wastes goes in there. Mind you, channelling bathroom wastes into drainages either covered or not, causes water pollution during flood.

Love800:
Educative.
Thank you.

But why cant they just put soak-aways instead of septic tanks which require calling tankers to suck-out?

At first when I got the apartment, my landlady said she only wanted to rent it out to a married couple but after a while she agreed, she put up normal rules and stuff as most landlords do and I had no issues because I wasn’t living in right away.

Fast forward to almost 2 years there she has adopted me as one of her children. All her children are abroad. When I’m home, I go to her flat to gist, most times she invites me. If she doesn’t see me, she calls to check up on me.

She has literally become my mother. She is a disciplined woman being a retired soldier, but I can tell she really likes me. She always compared me to one of her sons (her favorite I guess).

I was just patient with her from the onset and never was I rude to her once.
She want make you Bleep am......if another Sharp nigga Bleep am,she go show you say old solja no dey die
Note: I am still not married and she doesn’t even ask when I’m getting married.

Mrtaye:

I get your point but the reality is majority channel their waste water into the gutter as it's not everyone that will afford to build soakaway for faeces and also budget another soakaway for waste water too except the person is extremely rich

BeigJawnson:


It is the type of land... Some people get swampy land and put in these type of septic tank. If they don't plaster the walls inside, water will be penetrating from the underground. But dry land don't have this type of issue... It soaks out any waste and water doesn't penetrate through from underground.

Tho soakaways too can be filled so fast that one will need to call those tankers to come suck out becos of heavy usage of toilets...

Love800:
Thanks so much.
This is awesome.
I appreciate.

It was a face me face you compound. About 16 rooms and more than 40 occupants. The Land lady said the toilet should only be flushed once a day. Reason is that frequent pouring water inside the toilet will cause the soak away to full.
One toilet one bathroom.
Okpoko

Galinton:
1:Come back before 6pm. 2:you must greet them before you leave for work in the morning 3:you must fetch water for her from the well if it is your turn. 4: don't talk too much. E.t.c

Gentlesoul2021:


I know of a man who said he will never build house for rent or such. Man just build two 3 bedroom flat in his compound with 3 cars and keep fixing his money in the bank. He said that give him peace of mind...

ASAPFERG:
i know of a millionaire who don't own any other house apart from his private home.

He owns about six different guesthouses.

Gentlesoul2021:


Tenancy business will show u shege.. some tenant go frustrate Una. Look at what happen to Former Ekiti State governor brother wic graced the front page, a tenant didn't pay for 3years Nd still go ahead to suit him...
This is just using Ur money to start a high blood pressure business...

maasoap:

newbornmacho:
I hate tenancy business. None of my properties is leased

IyaTola:
How about over head expenses and maintenance

IyaTola:
Why?

newbornmacho:


Tenants and their problems

jmoore:


How is it extreme? Did the tenant pay for the fruits when rent was paid?

Juliearth:





I would have a better perspective to your question if the landlord planted those trees himself.

jmoore:

He is a landlord, why should a tenant plant a tree?
