badoh:
I hope they won't start asking you to go buy Amala for them cos you're their junior. They are notorious for that.

What is wrong with that.
I resigned as a sales manager at a dealership to learn Fashion designing. I ran all forms of errands for my boss and his stylists, even though they won't send me directly, but I would insist to do stuff for them. It made things much easier for me.
Guess what, the shop was just a stone throw from my former office.
@ op, do whatsoever you are asked to do and see them putting you through with ease.
I am happy I took that decision. Don't form OGA in another man's office, obey their rules. I wish you the best.

Car Talk / Re: Which Benz Model Would You Recommend If Reliability &cheap Parts Were A Priority by baaliyah(m): 11:30pm On Sep 22, 2019
AmuDimpka:


No

You compare Benz with brands like Audi, BMW, Fiat , Bentley and all not Toyota or Honda

Who does that ...do you ever know what handling is all about and what cornering means

You are just jumping up and down. He never compared Benz with Toyota, but with a Lexus and Acura.
He actually corrected the op.

Good day everyone, please...for a while now, I have been thinking of Acura MDX 2007, I want to ask if there are better SUV out there than MDX 2007 and with the price range of something not more than around 2.5M putting into consideration. Fuel economy, maintenance and cheap parts
Please help me make the best decision

I have been hearing VOLVO XC 90 lately. If you dont mind the look.

for the Benz second generation ML350 to be precise, it uses a stick knob like the good old wiper stick, it already designated with instructions on the stick you tap up, down, forward to the corresponding gear you want.

The BMW uses a tap stick just switch it to the desired gear stance by taping backwards or forward and it electronically works

I think Range Rover uses knob instead, you just rotate to the corresponding gear indicator.

There is no much big deal, they just made the gears more electronically inclined and beautify the whole thing, it's more about aesthetics on car design now same way cameras are beginning to replace side view mirrors.

Bros I sent you a message on WhatsApp since last week, kindly read and reply. Thanks
Car Talk / Re: Is Toyota Running Out Of Design Ideas. by baaliyah(m): 8:31pm On Sep 14, 2019
abatically:
I don't think so. On the contrary it is a good thing to keep the design language of a particular model, this will keep fans of the older models happy. The same way 1976 g wagon has the same shape as a 2015 model. Same way a 1970 range rover still looks like the latest model. You don't need to look at the badge to tell which car it is.

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by baaliyah(m): 11:31pm On Sep 13, 2019
tojahh:
My Honda Civic when on D, D3, R or D2 it will not move. Keep revving then pick. After like 2mins it will not move again just keep revving till I turn off the ignation and on. The process will repeat.

The transmission oil is well gauged so I don't know what the issue is. This just started today.
This happened to my Civic in January this year without any prior sign. I got it fixed by a gear specialist in Akure.
It has been working fine since then.
Properties / Re: Best Way To Prevent Water From Sipping Into Your Building Through The Floors by baaliyah(m): 11:22pm On Aug 21, 2019
Kuluuu:
@OP while all the points you raised are germane, sand types and quality also contribute to it. If you doubt me, check houses in Abuja to confirm what am saying. Hardly can you see a building in Abuja without dampness and yet they observe all those precaustion you mentioned.
You made a lot of sense.
I lived in three different houses in Abuja, including one that belongs to a former minister of petroleum in Asokoro. All had wet walls, I am sure most houses in Abuja have German floors, 'DPC' yet walls get soaked.
My family house in Osun state was built in 1978, I was there last week during salha, the walls are still intact. My house in Akure is barely two years, I just noticed one of the rooms is being affected.

While Toyota focus on reliability and efficiency, Mercedes focus on performance, comfort and style. Honda is the a mix of both worlds with a focus on reliability, efficiency, performance, comfort and style. They are not the best in any of the categories but are among the top in majority of the categories.

Nigerians know Atiku won that Election same as Adeleke but since the introduction of Yoruba's in the judicial system truth and facts doesn't matter but technicalities are considered therefore preventing the course of justice ...My conclusion is the Yoruba's are enemy of our country cowards that's why I'm glad as Fulani's are visiting them slowly and soon invade ooni's palace grin grin

Politics / Re: Senate, House Of Reps Pass Bill Re-Introducing 'Park And Pay' In Abuja by baaliyah(m): 12:55am On May 25, 2019
erico2k2:

Oga park and pay does not mean your car gets looked after, it is not security rather just pay for the space you park i n and let me also let you know, not everywhere abroad you pay to park, there are places in London where parking is free, and that's where park and pay originated from.

It was working well before, until someone took the matter to court and won. Park and pay was not applicable to all roads at that time, only the busy areas.
I left Abuja four years ago, I can imagine what the roads would look like now in terms of congestion. This is Nija where people drive down the road just to buy recharge card.

Properties / Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by baaliyah(m): 9:48pm On Jan 28, 2019
adanny01:


From what i see there, the affected wall is shared by a bathroom/toilet.

My parents house is facing the same thing, all walls shared by bathrooms have this dampness.

The problem in my view is tile spacing and sealing. Most times the affected is the floor tiles or floor drains.

Imagine the amount of water that goes into a small hole in between tiles. This admits water to underneath the tiles and gets to the walls where capillary action will damp the walls adjoining the bathroom.

Even if you hide the dampeness, you can still smell the dampeness.

Civic has no leg issues, better interior, better dashboard, lower ground clearance, more cabin noise, not thief magnet.
If u are a careful person buy the civic.

Abiola this, democracy that.

The real truth those old enough can remember is that Abiola is a hater or Christians and Igbos. Do you know how many people died during "oso - abiola" how many ppl sold off their ppties as peanuts, how many bibles he sank in the Atlantic or destroyed?

He ended up the way he did cus of collective cries and prayers of the people who feared for their lives should he be sworn in as the president.

Go and ask ur parents about this before you quote me ignorantly. If your parents were too young to understand politics then, as your uncles or your grandparents .

Thank God for the likes of Abdulsalami or else military won't have handed over to the democracy you're all celebrating.

You are a great mumu. If that's the story u were told, then there's no elderly elite around you.

Good people.
Please what can go wrong if I suspend
my roofing project after the woods have been put in place.

The wood work has been completed but I don't have the funds to buy roofing sheets till July salary is paid.
This means exposing the wood work to elements of weather for roughly 60 days.

I am not entitled to salary advance and I don't want to borrow for the roofing.

Please advise.

If you have a place to borrow, go ahead and complete your roofing and have rest of mind for roughly 60 days.

I'm far from an expert so take my advice with a grain of sand.

Once plumbing and electrical have been done then install the windows and doors together with plastering. Don't allow them to piecemeal it because it may become an unneeded expense. Cobble the work together at the same time.

You can join artwork to the roster there too.

Good luck on your project Sir.

Thank u baba. Aa ma riyin ba
