mightyhazel:
lol!


Dats afonja for u. Double speak is their culture

I am yoruba and I'm offended by all this your derogatory remarks about yorubas. People can have opinion, they can support or go a against a course but that doesn't give you the right to lump everyone together that way

Ngozi123:
If all Nigerians were like you then we'd see our country making significant strides. Alas, that simply isn't the case and there are more Nigerians like the person you quoted than those who're like you . I keep saying it, Nigerians have no compassion for their compatriots and this allows the elite to keep using and abusing us any way they like. If you don't stand up for your neighbour when their being unfairly treated then who'll stand up for you when it's your turn?

I think you have a point, I think you are speaking the truth, everyone across the divide have these filling of hatred, intolerance, lack of compaction for their fellow humans etc.

We allow others to dictate our life, tell us how to think, what to think, who to hate and why to hate our fellow humans and country men. Religion and ethnic sentiment are two great danger that will always stand in our way of developing a great society or nation.

Most people are ignorant of the world around them due to lack of exposure, education, lack of education and these things make it easy for them to be easily manipulated by those called elite.

Qc1:
You don't have to be precise on the cote. I just want something to work with. +/- N2m will do.

Do you whatsapp?

Yea I do. The number above is my whatsapp number

Trump ' s win was a huge surprise to me too, I believed that the polls will put Trump where he belongs, but no. He is the president elect. Let's see if any of his policies will affect us positively in Nigeria.

Trump' s win shows the ugly side of America, the side that want segregation, blatant racism against minorities (AA, Latin America, Muslim America).

From is campaign and all the horrible things he had said about other people other than white male, I think his foreign policues will have negative effect on Nigeria but we are lucky to have China, India and other emerging Asian countries for market

Qc1:
My boss....like how much do you think I should budget with/without raft for carcass?

I will have to see the drawings, possible Geotechnical report and picture of soil topography.
Please you can contact me through my mail ( jwastecx@gmail.com) or phone (08169492682)

Qc1:
@ skimanski, segcymoor, spyder880, abdulwastecx....etc

Good morning all.

I have a land in Isheri north from Opic, I need a good suggestions on who to award the building contractor to, I have already contacted one of my favorite builders here but it seems he is busy with another project right now. I need to start this project ASAP since I have some funds to go all the way to carcass right now.

Below is a picture of something similar to what I have in mind. A 4 bedrooms duplex in front and a pair of 2 bedrooms flat in the backitchen.

Egun, Hajj Mufu....over to you!

Thanks.

We can do this, since we are not that busy

fratermathy:
We both know you are not a South westerner. Always be proud of where you come from. Don't hide in the Internet claiming what and what not. Be straightforward! Teach people to trust you.

I am a proud yoruba man from ikare akoko ondo state

Majority of countries in Africa are of artificial creation by their various colonial masters, So u have no point here.

Reason why you see the secession of South Sudan, secession of somaliland from Somalia, reason you see underdeveloped countries in most of these African state, reasons you see tribal tension and intolerance in all these nation.

Nigeria will have to be restructured or break into different units before we can see improvement.

It is a matter of time before you see "oduduwa'' fighting for u dependence

victorvezx:
Nigeria will not give anybody referendum because Nigeria owes no one anything. It is only when there is a dispute that a referendum can be called for. Biafra carved out of Nigeria illegally by use of force, and Nigeria did what every legitimate country would have done, which is to take back its territory, the war ended in defeat and unconditional surrender of Biafra, meaning we promised them nothing. So u can shove ur referendum up ur a$$

Nigeria is an artificial state created by the British for her raw materials, with different nation which share little or no similarities, Nigeria will have to be restructured or partitioned so that each unit can developed fully to her potential.

If you don't know, I am from South west and belive Nigeria current structures gives too much power to Northern Nigeria.

If igbos are been killed for being igbo in kano, kaduna, and other northern state then they deserve to ask for independence so that they can practice their culture and religion as they like.

Spain is a developed country with Catalunya asking for independence , UK is a developed country with semi autonomous nation like Wales, Scotland and Ireland as an integral part. Any of these nation can ask for independence if they wish through a referendum.

victorvezx:
Keep deceiving urself. I promise u nothing will change. There are countries that manufacture nice weapons that don't care about human right because they too abuse human rights like Russia and China. We will buy more weapons from them and deal with u and ur people, then we will see how trump will help u. As for now, patriotic Nigerians are just sitting back and watching how Ipob will change during trump presidency. Lol

Just look at your high level of ignorance and intolerance towards a section of the country because of their differences in ideology.

It is ignorant of you to assume that you can easily kill off a big section of the country because they disagree with you. Biafra, have the right to self governers, they have the right to demand for independence and such must be done in a peaceful manner through referendum.

Trump presidency may be a turning point towards their felt determination.

Your opinion. However, attributing under development to a religious active region, to me is a wrong perception. Most of the arab world countries that practise Islam, which of them is under developed? i think Nigerian attitudes needs better changes irrespective of religion you practise.

You want to know how many Arab countries that practice Islam are less developed?

Officially, these are the list of less developed or developing Arab League nation.
1.EGYPT is the largest Arab League nation an a third world nation comparable to Nigeria.
2.Yemen
3. Sudan (arabised Africa Arab nation)
4. Syria
5.all other North Africa nation
5.iran ( a Persian nation that is majorly Muslim majority)
6. Arabised Pakistan, Afghanistan (other central Asian nation).

Infact all majority Muslim nation are poor and under developed except for oil rich countries like Saudi Arabia and other Gulf Arab nation

olayinka63:
The action that is permitted in the South might be rejected in the North, ask those that study law, they know that the law acceptable in one region can be different from other region. Example is North and Southern Nigeria.

The problem is that we are not longer in the 60s when we have regional system of government, what we have now is a loose federal system of government where revenue are shared from the center to all the federating units.

Sharia will not bring about development, on this century stone age ideology will not put food in our table, help us build road, developed more technology etc.
The north have too much confused Arab want to be, who can sacrifice every thing for religion and that is why Nigeria must be restructured into a strong federal system or regional system or better disintegration.

I am secular humanist and believe religion is a big cancer that will never allow sub Saharan to maximize their potential in economic development.

Religion will never allow northern Nigeria to educate her teaming population to get education, access to amenities that will allow them to see the light or information to developed any society.

Religion will never allow pastor that live on the ignorance of the poor masses to stop exploiting them for their selfish need.

More updates

More screeding update

ajoskele:
Elegbeleye is a dead politician.

He should just continue with his grassroot sports development. He is good at that and has helped many.

Good at what? This man is useless at everything, he was a local government chairman in 1999 with nothing to show for it, a very greedy fellow that only care about himself and his family

richidinho:
See him face like say he can fit win his ward

Don't mind that fool, he is from my ward (ishakumi ikare akoko) and a very useless man.

Qc1:
You've done a great job man! I throw my hat off for ya!

I will need you for my gate man and BQ house.

Thanks.

Thanks for the complement sir... We will be waiting to come

Ongoing screeding work.

Here is my garage house interior

Picture one: we have the open concept dining and kitchen

Picture two : we have the living room

Babaken:
Brother is now you people are waking up, the Igbo's see ahead of other tribe what when they speak you people will never take them serious now everyone is feeling the heat. The igbo's are perfect but some time we have to listen to each other. If only is not too late.

Who are you people?
I don't have any problem with igbos but people like you has no idea how this nation is run. Jonathan nearly run down the nation, marginalized the yoruba nation, support corruption openly, lack all the antecedents to be a good president, yet your kinsmen were supporting him because they were benefiting from massive looting taking place.

DabuIIIT:
u aint patriotic cos if u are,u oughtta include ...God bless the north..not that i give a damm about the north anyway...buh leave se and ss and stick to ur northern masters.

Op,tinubu is not alone in that category,the whole afonja bunch are huge disgusting failures when it comes to history..maybe they will eventually learn when they are all dead.

What is your problem with yorubas?
Because they refuse to vote for your Jonathan that nearly destroyed Nigeria with his lack.

Jonathan was a disappointment and a failure and that is why majority of the yorubas, middle beltans (plateau, kwara, kogi, benue, Taraba) that voted for him in 2011 refuse to vote for him again. Buhari is proven to be as stupid and clueless as Jonathan, expect people to turn their back on him.

I am a South western and believe southern Nigeria is an illusion and artificial creation that has no similarity a d familiar ideology. Nigeria is a state that will not move forward if the nation is not partitioned into the major ethnic group

Chekitaut:
Where you don reach Bros? is visible in Ogun...

At least I don travel go all the six geopolitical zones.

Though cost of building materials may vary from state to state but the differences is always very small.

From the small experience of supervising job in the following States, FCT, kaduna, ondo, enugu, Edo, anambra, rivers, kogi etc. I can say that difference in cost is relatively small.

A unit volume of concrete of strength 1:2:4 (by weight) cost about 25-31k before the increase in price of cement.

A unit area of wall will cost between N2500 to N3300 for 9'' block across board.

All major materials are relatively similarities cost across board.

Most of the finishing materials are imported from china, things like tiles, white cement, electrical materials, roofing sheet etc.

I don't know how you will be able to build that in ogun State o

GenBuhari:
what advise do you have about how I can go about adding a level or two. The bungalow has 7 rooms no plumbing.

Floor addition is a serious structural work, I will advice you do the following.

1. Test the soil the building is sitting on to know the engineering properties of the soil like bearing capacity and settlement rate.

2. Get a service of a builder /structural engineer/architect to check the structural integrity of the existing building.

3. From the information you provided above, you will need the building to be structurally redesign to cater for additional floors. This design will include the additions of new columns, beam and slabs. The design will also include the new floor architectural design.

Chekitaut:
7months ago is possible in Ogun state, Abeokuta precisely.

It is not even possible three years ago anywhere in Nigeria.

GenBuhari:
I am considering adding some storeys to my large bungalow in village.

Concerns are that :

It is about 60 years old

There are on the stairs to the entrance on one or more sides of the property, whichmya be caused by large roots of very big trees near the house

Property has been derelict and old rusted bam bam has been leaking water for years , would this effect the srength of supporting walls?

Advice please

It will surely affect the supporting walls
