First of all, I am not the author of the attached schedule. It's the DMO who is incharge and that's the actual payment date.

Secondly, that some people chose not to do their work when and how they should do it doesn't not make it correct.

Thirdly, saying the payment is usually between 20-23 is not correct because apart from the first coupon which I didnt collect early because there was a mistake on my account and it did not deliver, this is the the only one I am getting this late. At most, I have get it on the 19th of Dec. Yet, that does not negate the fact that the official payment date is 16th June or Dec except that date false on weekend or public holiday. I just don't want to litter here with proofs. If not I would posted all the alert from June 2021 till date for you to see that you are not correct or that your bank takes time to credit you. Your usual delays for upto 20-23 is not from CSCS.

Well u may be right sha, no wahala

freeman67:
Nooo..The payment should be on 16 June. They just deliberately push it sometimes. You can verify from the calender above.

Shebi u r arguing with me that it's on 16th,? Who's right now, u or me? I saw the sukuk 3 just now nd today is 20th nd it's usually 20-23

I wanted to but am trying to give him opportunity to defend himself by coming to my site with other guys in his area of specialisation to confirm what he has done .

Give me few weeks to sort things out with him before I end up calling him out .

Good pls do, it's a life saving things if u can do this for us on this forum. Building is not a joke these days

freeman67:
SUKUK 3 rent payment was supposed to be made on the 16th of June and it was a public holiday shouldn't it have been made first thing today which is the next working day?

Same thing with FG Savings Bond Series 95 yet no alert.

Na wa ooo

Sukuk 3 is always around 20-23 of June

Rawgold300:
Well said my oga. I’ve given job to a numbers of them even my window Aluminium was done by NL resident fabricator, it was brought attention recently that he used a lesser gauge glass for me …. Majority of them are criminals believe me . They can not be trusted at all .

You wouldn’t be believe that the shitty Segcymoor bastard paid a charge and bail lawyer to send me letter that am threatening him and his family . And I was only implying that his family will reap from everything he has sowed out there.

Believe me on this one , I be Mushin guy , they will all pay back no matter how long is going to take me . Thanks for ur advice anyway .

Pls mention the aluminum fabricator name to avoid scamming another person here

This person just listed out materials he needs to make a window just to dazzle you.

Just 15th of last month, 21 casement windows with burglary and net was delivered to me for a 5 bedroom bungalow, total cost 1.690M plus delivery and workmanship (hanging it).

List out the sizes/dimensions of your window let me help you ask for quote from same person that did for me.

The dimensions should be in mm like 900mm*1200mm, 1200mm*1500mm, etc

Please am also interested in this.

Which type of material used?

White, grey or black?

Thick imported, ordinary imported or tower?

Casement windows without burglary?

Thanks in anticipation

Billions123:
Got this materials quote for wiring of a 5bedroom bungalow all ensuite with visitors toilet.

1. 1 coil of 16mm load wire Copper

2. 8 coils of 2.5mm single wire red

3. 8 coils of 2.5mm wire black

4. 10 coils of 1.5mm single wire green

5. 8 coils of 1.5mm red

6. 8 coils of 1.5mm black

7. 2 coils of 4mm single wire red, and black

8. 1 coil of 6mm single wire red

9. 2 coils of antenna wire black


Your thoughts please 🙏

What's the length nd breath of the building?
Try to get electrical drawing layout for the wiring.
From the drawing u should know where ur money is going to.

If u r buying Coleman or nigerchin cables, this is a lot of money running into millions.

I think this is on the high side!

Streetinvestor2:
If I decide to sell sukuk bond of 10 yrs at 13 % then.will I get a buyer.i have collected 3 yrs interest on it.
If someone is willing to buy.what should I be expecting on my principal if you use 1 million as example.
I want to see if I can sell and go for present better yield of 19 %

ajabani4allah:
So if I am buying 10tones of granite it will be 82k

82k should be 5tons

topsy23:
Now I understand you, if your engineer is a civil engineer he might not know the size of cables.. I can bet it with you that the cable bought for your water heater and AC is 4mm.. They collected money for 6mm and buy 4mm cable.

I have seen some electrician recommending 50mm armoured cable for a 2- bedroom bungalow, FOR WHAT??.. Make sure you get expert advice to avoid paying excess money. The recent I got from one of the member here was so crazy.... See below quantity
1.5mm
Red 8
Black 8

2.5mm
Red 5
Black 5

10mm
Red 2
Black 2

Above list are for single 2bedroom flat as quoted by electrician and civil engineer... So if the man did not contacted me he would have bought all the cables and the left over be taken away.

Before you select your supply cables, there is calculation to be done for the total load in the building..

U r absolutely right, that's their doings.
That's y I advice the guy not to follow their quote and he should personally check everything physically if possible he should involve third party engineer to ascertain the quantity.

But in my own case I bought my cables direct from a major distributor myself because Coleman cables prices is not a child's play.

Can you believe me that my electrician quote excess pipping fittings and after day one work on site he went home with keys as against our agreement that he should drop the key for my inspection.

I called him to know y he went away with the keys, he said he forgot to drop it and since he's resuming very early the next day I shouldn't bother. I took spare keys nd was wow at the quantity of materials left bectthe job is already at 75%.

So I decided to do video coverage of all the job he has done nd the left over materials nd gave him voice not to go away with my materials.

After all the job I still have up to some bundles of pipe, U ways, couplers gum and some adaptable boxes.

It's better U crosscheck whatever they quote or even buy 70% of their quote nd monitor the job thoroughly because they make more than their payment from ur materials.

Boss... I studied Electrical and Electronic Engineering and i have been practicing for more than 10yeas now. I design, and also install. I have never design using above 4mmsq cable for split unit. 4mm cable is enough 1hp, 1.5hp, 2hp and 2.5hp and 3hp AC. The only way you can consider 6mm cable is when you are installing 5HP 3-phase AC.

What size of cable did you use for your water heater and AC?

Like I said earlier, I am not an engineer, so I agree with you in totality.

I used 6mm for water heater and ac.

The highest gauge of cables quoted by my electrician is 6mm but like I said I listen to engineers around me nd follow their advice.

topsy23:
4mm is enough for AC and water heater,,,. Buying 6mm or higher cable for AC and water heater is a waste of money. price of cable is not smiling these days... Even 2.5mm at times is used for 1HP .. Do not give him wrong advice

I have engineers around me nd I always listen nd consult them before embarking on anything.

How could you say am giving him wrong advice.

On my own project, I used 25mm recline from pole, 16mm for load from the cutout to distribution board, then 2.5 nd 1.5 for load sharing to sockets nd switches.

Bear in mind no body is an Highland of knowledge.

If u r talking of cables high prices these days it's understandable, especially Coleman and Nigerchin but never u say am giving him wrong advice.

Am not an engineer but my little contribution,

Try to count ur switches and sockets yourself as they are easy to identify. Never buy materials base on these quote, they are funny people. Like I said crosscheck everything physically base on ur building length.

With this load, buy 6mm or higher, 4mm is too small for water heaters and all these air conditioning.

TeetoBolt:
Guys I need your help, my engineer is telling me that my foundation will be this tall due to swampy area, I am scared of the amount I will spend, any suggestions please

U can do bore piling nd pile cap instead. Talk to ur engineer about it

chukzyfcbb:
Same goes for zenith bank
I went to 3 different branches on the island and they couldn't help.
They don't know the difference between primary and secondary market

Seems most bankers these days are learners, I think all the expert left the banking system

Gabrielclint:
Good morning guys,
I called my account officer in Fidelity bank and he told me that there is a new policy from CBN that one can only invest from 50 million naira in treasury bill. I find that difficult to believe . Please can anyone confirm this information please?

Am using N0 3 ( third) account officer this year because of issues like this. Change the account officer or go to another bank

Nakedman:
Me too. You can't be an investor and not be ready to loose some money. There has to be a balance.

Na so!

Foodempire:
15.75 I think. I regret the investment considering the amount involved.

Don't be, I also have 11.2% sukuk III nd d sum is a bit huge.

Sukuk is not that liquid like other investment

Foodempire:
I received mine this morning, it's a kinda loss investment considering the current rates and ten years no be beans.

Pls what's the rate of this your particular SUKUK ??

topsy23:
1.5mm 25500
2.5mm 40000
6mm 91000
10mm 151000

Just slight difference, thanks

topsy23:
Coleman cable reduced price this morning.

Pls take note

Pls how much currently

1.5mm
2.5mm
6mm
10mm

Acidosis:
Not in the way you expect. Inflation affects everything in the same manner. Assume you have N200,000, and you intend to buy an Air Conditioner unit. You visit the market, and the seller informs you that the final price is N220,000. Unable to raise the full amount, you decide to invest in a 2-year bond with the expectation of returning with more funds to buy the AC later. However, you return after two years only to discover that the same AC unit is now being sold for N550,000. The amount you receive from the bond after the 2-year waiting period is only N280,000.

U r right but am not in agreement with ur submission 100%.

Did u consider DEPRECIATION effects on the initial air condition u could have gotten at #220,000 2 years earlier?

DMTtechnologies:
Who need rubbles for filling
