fijiano202: u are an epitome of disgrace not just to ur family but to ur whole ancestral lineage

get trained before you post commets numb skull, I guess you lent your lesson today. Don't ever think that it is only untrained orchins like you that has the monopoly of insults. like I said earlier lean how to conduct yourself with proper dicorum the next time because people like me will be there to keep you in line.

fijiano202: ur right dude,no wonder showcasing ur family with insults

I say go back home M0RON (that's assuming you have a home anyway) stop embarrasing your parents.

fijiano202: Not just the No.10,make him captain too...mumu OP

Shut up mr man! must you make a stupiid comment every time a thread is opened, go home first and get some home training before posting your foolishness on a public forum or have you just shown us the kind of family you came from, because they said by their friuts we shall know them.

hensben: Jude as a senior bro fu cked up for not attending his marriage even if mummy kicked against peter marrying lola which was of course, fuel by tribalism, i dont blame her though, mothers of then always want their son to marry from their tribe n she wasnt different of same thought.A real dream is what you didnt think of before going to bed but when you always have a particular thing in mind either positive or negative, you begin to see them in your sleep in the form of imagination or dreams, the later was the case of psquare's mother dream, r.i.p to her though, she has caused more harm to the family by allowing tribalism to becloud her thought,she should know we are in 21st century, children make choice for themselves this days unlike ancient time when they chose wife/husband for them. An old woman in my school told me a story last year how her parents chose a husband for her against her wish, in other words, she was forced to marry the man then, due to he was rich and she never liked the man because he was older than her, her father's age mate for that matter and their marriage never knew peace until she finally left the man by force and relocated for the fear of her parents, thoough, she already had two kids for him. The woman was advising us that day cos i wasnt the only person with her to follow our heart in terms of life partner and no marriage is perfect but not marrying the love of your life will make the marriage worse.

So, okoyes should settle their differences and move on.My 3 cents.

No my freind, you are wrong and do not bring your tribal phobia to this tread, there are hundreds of thousands of Yoruba girls married by Igbo boys and vice vasa, so please stop talking tribal bullshit. the truth is the girl's age, mothers generaly frowns at their sons marring an aunty, so get your facts right before comming to a public forum.

Bitojoe: Another giroud

Last season: Giroud = 15 EPL goals. Eto+willian+Ba+Torres = 12 EPL goals. Lol. yeye team with mumu strikers. this season: Costa = 6 goals as usual.

Twins
Igbo = Ejima
Urohbo =Ejime

Nobleval: failed you? By winning your first Afcon in 20yrs,winning bronze on debut in CHAN,Getting to the round of 16 @WC FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 16yrs.

don't mind the idiat.

[quote author=donphilopus]We should stop encouraging this guy called Keshi, wrongly. The guy likes publicising himself. Btw, I thought he'd resigned, or wasthat just a publicity stunt?! Like Babayaro earlier said, “Keshi is confused”.

People like Keshi, Yobo and the useless/clueless Mikel Obi shouldn't have had their way back to Nigeria, because they've failed us as a country. What happened to Sanni Kaita after the 2010 World Cup, should have also happened to these useless guys![/quote) Ok, so they should encourage an ingrate like you to take over, Ewu! who is the most successful coach Nigeria has ever had? answer the above question lets see if you have brain.

DJDOLA: Say d truth and d truth shall set u free....madam u are bleaching or not?

name lie, she no bleach.

elnaf: This was the same thing that happen in KURU TOWN last two month so Pls its enuf one good turn deserves another is it because the kuru incident was not publicise like that? but those who watch BBC can compare i guess .To be frank WALLAHI this is nothing but a tip of an ice berg we ar just begining remember the TIVS & JUKUNS fought the FULANI who were worriours talkless of a minority tribe called BEROMS
LOOK THE ONLY SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM IS FOR THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT TO LEAVE US FACE ONE ANOTHER FOR GOOD THREE DAYS WITH OUT THERE INTERVENTION PLS!!!!!!!!!!! THATS WHEN THEY WILL DIFFRENTIATE BETWEEN THE SETTLERS AND INDIGINS WE ARE NOT AFRAID OF DEAD INFACT WE WILL BE HAPPY IF WE ARE KILLED DEFENDING OUR WEALTH AND RELIGION

ANIMAL!!

arcis: Dear All,

I would like to know if there is and correlation between a car mileage and the engine performance. My uncle toyota corolla with mileage 243,950 the engine sound great and the car move efficiently, no smoke, no engine oil shortage, no overheating etc.

I will like to know if car mileage affect engine and the car performance because have also seen a car with mileage 45,000 that smoke, etc.

kindly help me out on this. Thank you in advance.

the engine performance of a car depends on the usage and maintainance of the car engine. I use a 2000 model Toyota sienna and the odometer reads 226,000+ yet it's performance is outstanding, you don't even notice any vibration or sound when it's engine is revving in packing gear and it's sweet to handle when in motion. So everything depends on the maintainance history of the engine because I have seen same models with far less milage with almost dead engines.

Have always known Obasanjo as s morally bankrupt villainous coward. sleeping with his daughter in law, hiding under the table when his boss was assassinated, instead of coming out to arrest the situation. what a man!!!

my own concern is the OP's grammar, bros which secondary school you finnish from. Lol!!!!.

emorse: are you for real? Mikel made a mistake? Someone who's won almost everything there is to win in world football, Nigeria's best player right now who could be named Africa's best player in a few weeks made a mistake? I don't think so. I'm sure you don't either.

Mikel made a big mistake by going to chelsea, he would have achieved 10 times whatever he achieved with chelsea if he had gone to a youth friendly team like ajax, bercelona,arsenal,man u etc. thats why Messi has developed it a superster at berca while Mikel has fallen from No 2 to Messi to a hundred places behind him at chelsea. Kelechi should not repeat that mistake.

olatiler: This will affect our Africa Jewish brothers, I think is time now they put there state in order and start developing their cave and stop naming other state as free Land lastly they should delete Triblism from their mind Enugu ppl should see Anambrians as brother while Imo should not left out

you are a stup1d fool, you want to tribaliz this threat, go and massage you complex somewere. dumbkurf.

y.alwaysme:
Igbo and money

I agree, like those profesional armed robbers that operate along Lagos Ibadan axis are all money loving Igbos abi.

kingbang: STFU! Go to my Alma Mater DMGS and see for yourself. Visit CKC too.

Don't mind the blind bat.

Solo_benny: I cant help but wonder where the effects of all these money that Peter obi has giving to schools are. Please, we in anambra dont see the physical effectiveness, the infastructural effect.

Can a blind man see? so why are you complaining when you can not see.

funshint: A dying lion(chicken) will always make d loudest noise. Obi is a complete failure. I can't just wait 4 dat eerie silence on nairaland when Ngige is declared winner...up Onwa!!

Ngige is an agbero or don't you understand? can't be compared with a decent man like Obi.

Fadelex: correct, and a builder don't work under d supervision of foundation or civil engineer... the only person empowered to check d work of a builder is an architect and this is to ensure there is conformity with the specifications in d schematic drawing.... and by the time Building Code is passed into law, everybody will definitely know where they stand cuz there seems to be clash of duties presently in d industry

Yes my brother, let every professional know his place and duty, not this Babble of tongues we have now.

SIR BANYE: I am a civil engineer, in my years of practise, i ve never heard or seen anyone use pile foundation for a single storey building. No matter how bad the soil is, raft is best recommended. I always advice clients building in very swampy area that are not too sure of the soil bearing capacity to the soil replacement. Soil replacement is done by replacing the top soil of your land with solid sharp sand to a depth of about 2m, depending on how poor your soil is. Upon doing soil replacement, a proper compaction must be done. After which you can use a properly reinforced raft of about 1m for your foundation. Soil replacement is the guaranteed way to improve your soil irrespective of how poor it is. This way i can guarantee you of a stable structure free from sinking or foundation tear. You can contact me on udoka.banye@yahoo.com for further advice

You are 100% right, it sounds funny when people recomend pile foundation for a storey buiding on a poor bearing soil, that is a misnormer. the required foundation type for this building project is raft foundation. @Op, try carry out a soil test and get a sound structural engineer to design a raft foundation fo you.

adanny01: It is not your responsibility or anyone for that matter, other than the Geotechnical/Foundation engineer to carry out the geotechnical investigation, recommend type of foundation and design the foundation. In my opinion, it will likely not be a pile foundation but rather a raft for the type of structure you require. Also note that the test required is geotechnical not geological, geophysical or whatever.

What i will do is to give you the order of professionals you will be meeting. Make sure that 3 and 4 are reputable and registered with NSE, COREN or any other recognized professional bodies.

1. Land Surveyor - he will give you the coordinates of your property boundaries for site plan/layout as well as elevations for site drainage design.
2. Architect - he will produce pictorial designs of the structure
3. Civil/Structural engineer - he will analyze and design structural elements for the stability of the building and determine total looad that will be transmitted to the ground from the building weight and all possible loading due to human activity that the building will be subjected to during its life.
4. Geotechnical/foundation engineer - he will test for the soil bearing capacity and design foundation to bear the loads expected from the superstructure.
5. Quantity surveyor - he will determine all quantities of materials required for the completion of the building project and the current market price for such materials and ultimately arriving at a total expected cost of project.
6. Contractor/Building engineer - he shall be responsible for construction of the building under the supervision of the Foundation and civil engineer.':

Also note that, mechanical and electrical designs may be required before the civil engineer carries out his design in cases where a mechanical or electrical equipment with certain weight and vibration is to be used especially on the superstructure. An example is a central cooling system sometimes pla"ced on roof slabs.

Oga sir, you are wrong in no 2. Architects do not produce pictoral designs but detailed functional housing designs( detail working drawings) upon which every other drawings or work ( structural, electrical, mechanical, QS, contractors etc) depends and that is why he is called the prime consultant and the leader of the building team in any building project. an Architect is not a prime cosultant in projects such as roads, bridges, dams etc those areas are for the engineers. So don't misinform people.

Rashzubair: The essence of using Pile is not only/always to reach a bearing strata, some piles are held by friction exerted around it as it goes dipper into the ground, the frictional force will be so strong enough to support the pile just as a bearing strata would.

you are right @Rashzubair, but the friction pile must go deep enough to generate the required amount of friction to bear the load of a structure. the key word here is" DEEPER" it must be deep enough to generate friction, so the dipper area is what is call bearing strata.

Reference: You are wrong. There is no given length for piles. They can be as short as necessary and no they don't have to reach bearing strata. You can pile just to densify the soil.

No Sir, you are the one wrong. The besic requirement for pile foundation is to reach firm strata of the soil in an area with a very low load bearing capacity, especially with large building structures period. any body that says any other thing besides this has just exposed his ignorance concerning this issue.

ibedun: Igbo parasites are at it again. Stop lambasting the BBC joor. Abuja belongs to the Gwari people anytime anyday.

FCT for where, the land belongs to the Gwari people.

Buying a land somewhere doesn't give you automatic right of citizenship or belonging. You remain a guest and in the long run the land reverts back to the owners. My homeless Eastern brothers don't like the truth.

another hungry and frustrated individual, so na only igbos be non-indigenes in Abuja? no be igbos put you for this condition wey you dey, na laziness cause am, work hard like the igbos so that you can feed well and be comfortable enough to make responsible comments on this forum.

Donmams: As expected bigoted non-muslims are celebrating the unjustified killing of muslims. What excuse does the JTF have to kill anyone extrajudicially? What are the courts for? And because these animals supporting sheer wickedness have no conscience, including programmed hate of everything Islamic, cannot spot the injustice being perpetrated here. I can still remember Kabiru Sokoto is yet to be convicted. As a matter of fact no one has been convicted for being even remotely involved with Boko Haram. You fools simply can't see that the Gov't is using the BH problem to carry out a nefarious agenda.

I suppose the begoted non muslims were the ones that told the boko haram muslims to start murdering innocent men, women and children, I believe you are one of those people that rejoice and say Allahu kubar!! whenever the boko haram animals cut off the head of JTF soldiers, thats why you are talking about courts and unjustified killings. From your post, it appears that you are a complete m0ron.
