Madam, please tread carefully.

Don't put money over life!

In that your Benin it was reported yesterday how an overhead tank like this one you are building crushed and a killed a schoolteacher who happened to be off duty that day and was at home helping her mother

You can buy another tank, you can sell off the stand you just made, life cannot be replaced.

Not saying you want to do anything stupid, just advising that you look beyond the money.

You may wish to discuss with him the cost of either additional fortifications to carry your tanks or dismantling and rebuilding. In legalese they call it "variation of contract." I am sure it will be cheaper than a new build.
Agreed with the poster above.

In addition @OP, you could also settle with the installing tanks based on the weight limit of the current stand.

The difference there would be just adding an additional day or so of pumping water.

It is possible the difference of the amount of times you pump water might be very negligible as that depends on how the occupants of the house utilize water.

Not quite as cheap as you think o. Paying unskilled labourers may not be as costly, but paying skilled artisans is a different ball game all together, not to even mention cost of materials and logistics. For instance, when I did my roofing earlier this year, price of bond stone-coated sheets was 4.7k per sqm here in Bayelsa, while in Lagos, it was 3.9k per sqm ...of course I got it from Lagos and still made some savings despite having to pay twice for logistics. Just a couple of months after, Lagos price had dropped to 3.75k per sqm while in Bayelsa it increased to 4.9k per sqm, instead of decreasing.

Whether you support Tinubu or Not.

One thing many people does agree on was that the election was heavily rigged.

The difference between this election and the other election was the "PRETENSE BY INEC TO BE IMPARTIAL ", " THE PRETENSE BY OUR LEGISLATIVE ARM TO PASS A LAW REGARDING ELECTION TRANSPARENCY ".

Before this last election, rigging was more open, no PRETENSE at all, no new election laws, no assurance by INEC,

Legitimatizing corruption...

In Nigeria we know our problem, we know how to fix it but will not do the right thing..

Rather, we engage in a tribalistic and religious blabbing instead of fighting to fix the issues in the spirit of "one Nigeria".

Someone like Ganduje (together with many ex governors) should be cooling off in jail and paying back restitution to their respective states but HERE WE ARE!!

Some villages in Nigeria were far better than Saudi Arabia since in the 60s through to the mid 80s but today........
The difference is, they used thier resources to develop their place..

Here, politicians have embezzled our resources and tells us no money.. snake swallowed this, monkey swallowed that,.. borrowing $800m for palliative that would pay each Nigerians N1,640.

In Nigeria, we know our problem, how to fix it but won't do the right thing.

You are even saying 60s and 80s.

If anyone have traveled to any of the gulf states , UAE, Saudi, Kuwait, etc in the early 2000s and traveled there in 2023.. you will be shocked.

You could also use Google time-lapse and see the wonders in these gulf states.

But Nigeria is just jaga jaga.. always making excuses.... no be Ibori they said UK plans to hold onto the $130m they confiscated from him? Imagine what that money could have done in delta state?

Now, UK will use that money to strengthen their own infrastructure and we will huzzle for visa and buy plane ticket to go and see it.

where is the dollar to buy self?

the floating of the Naira is a great threat to the existence of the poor in Nigeria.
you float naira and remove subsidy at sam time.... jesus



without black market you won't able to source fx at a given time..

its like going to access a service in a government hospital with long queue to see the specialist which might take anytime from 2months.

are u willing to go to bank to wait 2 to 3 months to get Dollars? or you walk to the close by black market and get it today today as time is money
.
you might say there is dollars in the bank... please take a walk to the bank and demand for forex... they will say untill they get willing seller then they will contact u who is willing buyer... untill then no dollar for you.

black market will exist as long as there is scarcity of dollars in the bank.

same way private hospital will thrive once you can't access same service in government hospitals on time
You know, something I never quite understood is why would one need dollars when Nigeria currency is naira.

If anyone want to pay their supplier or pay for this kids education or medical bills abroad the simple way and common sense way would be to just walk into your bank and complete a form, the bank withdraws from your account and complete the wire transfer for you at an official rate.

The system of going to buy dollar in the black market and pay into your Dom account to effect these transactions are ridiculous... it's not like your bank will physically carry the cash to the foreign account where the payment is going.

We just k ow the right things to do in this country but will not do it!!
