14 feet is OK for that kind of building,
If it were my building, 14ft would be ok.

18ft as most suggested is 87% slope at a 39.15degree angle. Note that 100% slope is 45degree which i do not see as a reasonable slope to get.

Personally, i see a building with too high roof like a person wearing an oversized hat. I am always on the conservative side.

My maximum kingpost height is the height of the building/1 floor height plus foundation height plus 0.6metre. With most building or floor height at 3m+.5m foundation ground clearance+.6m. That gives me 4.1m which i adopt any thing exact, plus or minus as my king post height.

My ideal slope is 66.66% slope or a 30degree angle. For an 11m width, i add 2 eave lengths, of .6 making it 12.6 then divide by 2 to get 6.3 times .6666 to give a king post height of 4.12m.

A 9m width will be 9+1.2=10.2/2=5.1x.6666=3.4m

Hi. How many 9inch bricks would be able to fence a 100 hectares upto a height of 2 meters round? Thanks
100hectares = 1,000,000m²

√1000000=1000m

Perimeter is 1000x4=4000m

A block is 225mm tall + mortar 15mm (max)
A block takes up 240mm or .24m height.

A block is 450mm long + choking of 15mm(max)
A block takes up 465mm or .465m of perimeter.

4000m/.464m=8608.15blocks for 1course of block work

2m/.24=8.33courses

8 courses will be short of 2m so 9 courses will be adopted. 9 courses gives you

0.24x9=2.16m

9x8608=77,472blocks

I recommend to add 10% to take care of breakage and columns.

77,472+7,747.2=85,219.2

A round up number of blocks is 86,000.

I was inside a taxi once when all of a sudden my stomach started churning & I got all sweaty. I knew it was a bad case of a stomach bug. I had to go! It was so urgent, I almost used my handbag as a toilet. Needless to say, I got off the taxi & ran into the nearest house to use the loo. I couldn't even see clearly, that's how terrible it was. I walked into this house & asked to use the toilet, without waiting for a reply I found it by myself. After I was done doing my business, the embarrassment & shame set it. It took me about 30 minutes to summon enough courage to walk out. I sheepishly made my way to the sitting room, quietly introduced myself & apologized for the intrusion grin The mother was very nice & understanding, fortunately smiley
Mine was worst.

I was at Sheraton for a meeting, the meeting was over, I started feeling the contraction like a woman in labour. I thought to myself either i use the toilet in the hotel or go to my office. The contraction wasn't too pressing at that moment so i decided to head to office where it will be most convenient (i spend time in the loo). A big mistake it turn out to be.

On the way, the contractions increased, i was sweating and shivering profusely i had to turn the ac to max. By the last under pass u turn to my office, i could not drive anymore and couldn't hold it anymore.

I parked, luckily, police used to check vehicles there but they where not there. There was some tall grasses but inside a barb fence i could not find access. Meanwhile, i was in an unbelievable state of confusion and distress, practically holding it back with my breathe.

With no one on sight, just opened the front passenger door, dropped my trousers and let it flow on the foot mat. Some ppl were coming, i had no time so i pulled my trousers up and sat. They passed without suspicion but i stained both boxers and trousers.

Luckily i had a full set of clothes in the boot. I also had a bottle of water. I disposed both my boxers and car foot mat, cleaned myself, wore a new boxer and trousers. I went home straight, before getting home, bought air freshener sprayed the car, dropped the car at the car wash and walked home.

I told only my wife.

We all know that Buhari is the president who doesn't like going out to invited functions especially for the cost and inconveniences of the presidential motorcade.

Imagine, if he is going to the airport, the police force officers and vehicles will be mobilized at every kilometer and every junction, stopping inflow of traffic into the road for 30minutes before he shows up. He knows that its a big inconvenience so he avoids moving in town as much as possible.

And Lawan is not a consensus candidate but an imposed candidate, learn the difference.
Do you think in Nigeria, there is any consensus candidate? Whether APC or PDP, there are only imposed candidates vs disgruntled candidates.

And why are PDP supporters so insultive.

First off all, did you appreciate Buhari for allowing NASS choose their leaders in 2015.

He did that but they turn to bite him.

How that becomes hypocritical?

If the Nigerian democracy is growing, why do PDP castigate him so much? You castigate him and capitalize on his benevolence to create chaos for him.

A friend of mine admitted to have been abused by his aunties.

We thought during the university that he didn't like girls or a virgin.

He later confessed that he had little sexual feelings for women since after he was abused by his grownup aunties. He actually had repeated sex with both of them who lived with his family.

Glad he turned out ok.

How is that possible when the speaker is elected among the MPs.

It is his oath at swearing in that forces him to drop all party affiliations.

UK is an advanced democracy unlike ours that even the loopholes in the constitution cannot be blocked.

toolovely:
your reasons are lame. its funny that same people who keep telling us that PDP failed Nigerians are always referring to PDP when they want to do same to some things.

first, the legislative arm is not an arm of any political party. the senate rules is that the senators should elect whoever they want as their leaders. the best the party that has the majority is to zone is to each position to geopolitical areas and anybody from that zone should be free to contest. but coming to tell them that this must be the person that must be the president is not democratic.

pdpd changing the senate presidents has no correlation with this. OBJ or PDP never imposed any senate president on the senators.
Let me start from the last.

I think that if PDP did worst than what is happening right now, their supporters should have no right to complain. The kind of executive interference by PDP was the worst Nigeria ever had but the same PDP and its supporters want NA left alone. Buhari did leave NA on its own, was the first to do so in this dispensation, you know were it got him.

Yes legislative arm is not an arm of any party but the party took them there and the legislature recognizes party affiliations thats why they have majority and minority leadership positions. You cant separate party, politics and leadership.

The NASS consists of lawmakers elected to represent the people on the platform of a party not the other way round.

APC never learn from the dangers of imposition. I won't be surprised that after all this Lawan noise, some aggrieved members with the backing of the opposition produces the Senate leader.

The legislature is an independent body full of matured people and the APC and it's committee should respect that
What do you think will happen if APC does not have a consensus candidate? Say 3 people are vying, with APC in that position any consensus by PDP will win.

If you were APC what will you do?

I don't even get why this 9th Assembly Leadership is bringing controversy. I personally advice NASS to vote a person who will be their Senate leader. Not some party affiliation .
In the UK, majority in the parliament forms a government from the PM to Speaker. No where in the world does the minority fight for such control especially exploiting personal greed of the majority members.

If PDP had no interest in the leadership but have interest in the policies, i bet you, this issue will not be outside the senate chambers. They would just sit and choose from who ever are the contestants in APC. But no, the APC members would do anything to lead so the sell the party to PDP. From the way PDP is going, they made themselves underdogs and would remain so. The government at the center will elude them only trying yo get back in using divisive and insincere methods.

Thank God voting pattern has changed, Bauchi a classic case, PDP governor APC assembly. People know to choose what they want now.

Mrakeli:
Critics drawn from a coalition of civil society organisations under the auspices of Partners for Legislative Agenda for Nigeria (PLAN) has taken the All Progressives Congress to cleaners for insisting on Senator Ahmed Lawan as President of the Senate in the yet to be inaugurated ninth National Assembly.

The group, in its argument, noted that handpicking the Senate President in a legislative chamber having divergent views was undemocratic as it is undesirable.

Recall that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has put its foot down regarding the position of Senate President of the ninth National Assembly, maintaining that the choice of Senator Ahmed Lawan was already a foregone conclusion.


Lanre Issa-Onilu, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, had posited that while the party recognised the right of individual senators like former Senate Majority Leader, Ali Ndume, to run for the Senate Presidency, such right had been signed off to the party who exercised it in the interest of those who voted for it.

Although the development does not go down well with some elected members of the upper legislative chambers, Chairman of PLAN, Lord Ibiang, in Abuja, on Thursday, said the action might lead to the ugly antecedents that led to the emergence of Senator Bukola Saraki as Senate President in 2015.


He said that the country suffered in terms of quality laws owing to the endless friction between the executive and legislative for the better part of Buhari’s first term.

He said, “We sincerely commend the APC for looking in the direction of the Northeast. It is the right thing to do. But we equally disagree and warn against any attempt to impose a candidate.

“Yes, while it is imperative for a ruling political party to introduce a semblance of order and political stability in the leadership choice, historical antecedent has shown that imposition through influence peddling and invoking the name of the President had led to instability in leadership succession in the National Assembly in the past.

“There are a number of experienced, exposed, versatile, cosmopolitan and broad-minded ranking Senators from the Northeast. The search for a Senate President must be broadened to get for Nigeria, the very best. The idea of a handpicked Senate President is as undemocratic as it is undesirable.

“The Senate must rise to the occasion. It is incumbent on it, on behalf of Nigerians who elected them, to choose a Senate President that can build bipartisan and nationalistic bridges which would contribute in stabilising the polity and bridging the unity gap.”

“Therefore, the 9th Senate should go ahead and elect for itself, a Senate President that will work for it and for Nigerians. This position shall be communicated to all appropriate quarters, especially the senators-elect, President Muhammadu Buhari and all major political parties.”


Ibiang said that a harmonious executive-legislative relationship which would help the country achieve sound and effective governance is the desire of many Nigerians at this auspicious time.

He said, “The history of leadership of the National Assembly need to be placed in its proper perspective to reduce tension and help the leadership selection process in the 9th National Assembly. That is about setting the records straight!

“Our major intention is to create a harmonious executive-legislative relationship that will help the country achieve sound and effective governance.”

https://www.akelicious.net/2019/03/9th-nass-apc-may-regret-imposing-lawan.html
Those who are against APC's position are the exact people that want APC to fail.

The idea is that APC should well ahead of time put their heads together for 1person unlike last time that consensus wasn't there so Saraki exploited the situation.

Now, there is a consensus but no, they dont want it. Who if i may ask doesnt want a consensus, only a person who wants APC to fail.

I dont blame the PDP, or its supporters, i blame Buhari. How many Senate Presidents did PDP or Obj change between 1999-2007? Where were these people when PDP did all that. The senate president was in the pocket of the PDP.

Buhari has tried for democracy but no PDP wont have it. PDP is hell bent on making sure Buhari doesnot give Nigerians good leadership so that their hope of looting will be kept alive.

Who does it benefit if APC has no consensus, lets call a spade a spade.

If Ali Ndume or any disgruntled APC senator does anything contrary to the consensus, its just greed and another attempt to cause 4 years of war between the executive and legislative. This only benefits the rejected PDP.

Politics › Re: Buhari Launches Pension Plan For Self-employed Nigerians by adanny01(m): 7:36pm On Mar 28, 2019
abc115:
President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday launched a micro pension plan for self-employed Nigerians.

The launch took place at the State House Conference Centre, Abuja.

Mr Buhari launched the programme by supervising the registration of a Keke NAPEP operator, Sagir Shawai, a resident of Karu village of the Federal Capital Territory.

The president said the programme was conceived for Nigerians in the informal sector of the country.

He appealed to trade associations, workers unions and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in the informal sector to join hands with the government in enlightening their members on the importance of the scheme.
“This initiative will capture those that are not fully captured in the existing pension scheme.

In the past three years, we have provided loans to farmers and others in the informal sector. The micro pension plan is the next step,” he said.

Results captured by Atiku's team is just the total between PDP and APC to know other parties result with PDP and APC, just visit the www.factsdontlieng.com site supplied by the Atiku's team to see all the secrets and even the masterlists from INEC including server image. Etc
For the fact that the total votes cast of the Atiku hacked result says 36,430,687 and is more than the total number of accredited voters 29,364,209 given by INEC, Atiku is obviously lying.

Is this not over voting? That means INEC should cancel the entire result and conduct a fresh election.

On THE ETHICS ISSUE AND THRESHOLD OF PERMISSIBLE JUDICIAL CONDUCT, the point still remains who is constitutionally permitted to suspend or remove CJN? NJN is the one if only u can stick with truths. So why can FG file a case to request for his suspension or total removal. Why must we go as far as committing sins in order to punish sinners. It is a pity that tyranny and corruption keep multiplying in this nation.
Chairman, i wonder why you have the internet to write this comment but do not have the internet to make a research.

Constitutionally, there is no suspension but removal. Technically, whoever has the power to remove, has the power to suspend.

Who has the power to remove the CJN.

1. The President - via a 2/3 vote of the National assembly
2. CCT - upon conviction of a CCB breach

The reason the NJC is not there is because no law permits them to remove or appoint, the law says they recommend.

In CCB rules, if a public officer admit he/she forgot to declare parts or some of his/her assets and voluntarily declear those assets as CJN did in 2016, he is now innocent and not supposed to be referred to CCT. That's the law and CJN can't be convicted because he didn't violate the law.

Your daft Buhari and his cabals are only chasing shadows
If am not mistaken, this law is part of the amendment the National assembly did in 2016 when Saraki was under trial.

The question is, did Buhari ever sign that amendment into law or did the Senate override the President on that amendment?

If no, then that law you speak of does not exist. If yes, i rest my case.

This and many others are what Saraki tried to do to the CCT but was unsuccessful. The bill also removed powers of the President and subtituted it with the National assembly.

Buhari never signed it. I am surprised that over 20 people liked your comment but have no idea that that law you claim is not a law. Should I say that you and all the people supporting your comment are ignorant of the law?

99% of the comments here are completely partisan and without any thought to the facts of the case. Nigerians so much believe in propaganda and defending those who actually rob us of the development we need. The result of the lack of proper education we deserve is the reason we turn around to defend those who denied us that basic right in the first place.

When will we adopt the "God bless Nigeria" attitude instead of defending those people who are responsible for our woes.

God bless Nigeria.
