Trump is not stone walling any investigation. He even wants them to speed it up. His lawyer commiting a crime, or any thing didn't change or will change the fact. That the Russia hoax was the greatest political scam in modern history. Everybody knows it, except you live under a rock.
Now you are being biased...

Trump is stonewalling the investigation.. House are currently fighting to enforce the subpoenas in court.

Trump blocked lots of people from Testifying in the investigation..

I'm suspecting that the Lincoln project guys and RVAT power groups want to hijack the democratic party
They have seen that the Republican party has been killed totally by Trump, McConnell, Graham and co.....

So they want to jump out
And make the party more like the republican party

Imagine a human being like Kascisk speaking at the DNC
Four years ago

I would NEVER have imagined such in my life

These Republicans are up to something

They have hijacked the democratic party before
And they can do it again

The support for Biden will not come free
Well, methinks they want to get rid of Trump..
Biden will be 80 plus in the next 4 years and he will most likely not seek reelection... so Republicans have 4 years to reassess, regroup and come back the next 4 years.

Which Russian lawyer confirmed what? What are you even talking about? You sound confused. The impeachment had nothing to do with Russian interference in the elections, it was about events that happened in Ukraine. The Mueller investigation was the one that looked at the Trump-Russia allegations and they concluded that there was no collusion between Russians and Trump to influence the elections so I don't know what you are talking about. You are yet to tell me how Russia rigged the election, if you are so sure they rigged it then you should have the details or are you just basing your conclusion on unverified rumours?
I can't think of the Russian lawyers name, she is a lady.. look it up on google..

If Trump stop stonewalling the investigations, so we can find the truth.

Wichtech is still the best.

People are not using Wichtech only because of the poverty level in this country. Nothing more.

Wichtech attend Tilcor stated making Nigeria grades because they know wer can't afford the "original" because of poverty.

[Every company that intends to compete in Nigeria must lower their quality to maintain a price that we Nigerians, the poorest people in the world, can afford .
I respectfully disagree on the bolded.

Nigerians are not the poorest people in the world..

The issue is cost of doing business is high, very high. Lots of uncertainties.

Try opening a factory, the community will give you list of demands, this is after you pay for the land..

Then if you import materials, the non straightforward process to clear the goods and lots of unnecessary charges you have to pay.. then if you get too big, your rival could conive with a politician or someone with connections to frustrate your life..

But Nigerians are not poor..

Regardless, how many people have mortgage in Nigeria as compared to U.S?

1. Very big lie, Russia didn't give Trump any dirt on anyone.

2. How did Russia rig the elections for Trump please specify because this only seem to have happened in your dreams

3. Those Trump associates that were jailed were covicted on issues that have nothing to do with the 2016 elections, things that happened before Trump even decided to run.

4. Trump is going to win and win big. If anyone is going to jail on January 2021, it will be Biden
The Russian lawyer confirmed it..

Trump blocked witnesses from testifying..

Did you follow the impeachment proceedings in the senate?? Most Republicans even though voted to acquit Trump, admitted he did something wrong..

Politics just clouded their minds..

This is what I believe will lose Trump this election


With the Lincoln Project and the RVAT groups (powerful groups btw] working against Trump
That's a big loss for him


Assuming the Republican party still locked ranks like they did in 2016 the story for different
But now that there is no unified front

And the "Never Trumpers" have vowed to vote out Trump

That's another issue on his hands
Thanks for keeping an open mind and evaluating this issue unbiased..

Trump is not really a republican.. lots of hard core Republicans don't care for him.

Lots of people don't care for Biden either but they want Trump to get out.

Here is republican strategy, get Trump out of office because he doesn't embolden republican values.. regroup and come back in the next 4 years.. there is less chance Biden will seek a second term if he wins.. so republicans see a fair fight next 4 years.

Thank God all probes failed to find any truth to that stupid line.

It was only dumb Liberals that believed that crap due to their hatred of Trump.

Putin used juju to control the Americans at the polling booth. Lol.

The probe did not fail..
TRump admin stonewalled the investigations.. the house are still in court fighting to enforce the supeoneas.

People say abestos is poisonous to human's health but that is where they born and trained us till now, I took up a project and my client did not want to spend much so we concluded on using nigerite boards for pop ceiling and it came out well after screening just like pop ceiling designs. You can contact a good carpenter and give him the design to do, it will come out fine
How much do you think a 236.1sqm would cost using the nigerite boards? A rough estimate would do grin

This thread especially, it's very educating. I paid 400k above the amount quoted for the blockwork, Even with my BOQ, which I knew favours him more. This is just a low budget bungalow ooo.
Anyway, God no go shame us.
Well, shine your eyez..

I have seen a similar situation once, they busted the bubble of an electrician and bought the materials.. then all of a sudden the materials wasn't enough.... the owner keeps buying but it wasn't enough... the electrician claimed ehm ehm.. the person selling the electrical wires was repackaging them and cutting the measurements

but meanwhile he was reselling the materials to guess whohuh The guys brother in law... ( didn't know the 2 knew each other). The brother inlaw was actually the person that supervised the project from ground up till first decking before starting his own build and couldn't handle both plus his regular job.

[He's not sending any of his team to assist us in recognizing the Oridudu that he said he's going to use .
Not familiar with the woods .. but I will fire the contractor immediately though, gross incompetence, dereliction of duty.

This kind of contractor when you bust their bubble, they will steal your materials and do shady work.

Goodness me, where do I even start on this issue.

I wouldn't say I have seen it all because people keep surprising me.

People need to understand that marriage, like tango .. it takes two to tango.. not just 2 people.. 2 people with the same mission, the same understand and the same goal.

I know it is not a perfect world, you can't automatically get that "perfect match" but hey you need to have a plan, communicate, don't make issues out of small things.. weather the storm "if it is salvageable " or walk away peacefully if it is not.

Again, my 9ja women yankee is not all that you watch in soap operas on TV.. a typical suit and tie 9 to 5 job , big house in a surbub and a nice car. Some of our men are working fingers to the bones, CNA, construction, taxi driver you name it... so it is not that all gravy.

My men dem .. ehm your wife is not a slave oo .. i know we have a patriarch background in 9ja but the setup in Nigeria is different from America.

Some of these little issues 9ja couples have is a minor issue mismanaged and blown out .but again it is all about understanding and communication.

I once worked with a Laotioan couple a while back, during lunch time, this woman leaves first, goes to the lunch room sets up table for 2 ( for herself and the husband).. warms up their food and the man walks as slowly as you can imagine grin like the king of the forest .. sits down and they eat, jist, laugh... the same table they sit all the time c
was nicknamed the couple's table ( I don't remember their name).. everyone gives way.. no one sits on that table when it is lunch time and these couple drive only one car.. they seem to be happy.. and they have been doing this for a decade plus.. *** I forgot to add** the woman makes more money than her husband.. she's been with the company for 5 years plus before her husband's business went belly up and he joined the company**

Now I am not advocating everyone should be like them but highlighting what understanding and communication etc could get you...

I dont want to bore anyone with examples of petty cases I have seen with my "2 naked eyes".

Stay Blessed every one �

Okay, I will share more stuff as they come up.

As far as the micro estate, it’s a simple collective of 5 modern buildings. Each building has a 2 bedroom and a 1 bedroom flat. Phase 1 that I’m on has two buildings (1 building is almost up). Phase 2 will have 3 buildings but I may go up to two stories effectively doubling it to 12 units. But I’ll wait to see the performance on phase 1 since it’s all self financed �

The feel of the premises is to create a Southern California environment. Clean and well detailed, lots of palm trees, no petrol generators, each flat will have a 3kva solar system. Guaranteed dusk to dawn estate light, on-site 24/7 security as well as pressurized and filtered water.

I have another 2 acres nearby that I can develop if the experiment succeeds. If not then it can be turned into a hotel since it’s exactly 1/2 mile from the Ladoke Akintola train station.
Could you please throw more light on the the solar system.

How much did it cost labor plus materials to install the 3KVA solar system

1. They have their names boldly written on them, with s/n and date of production at the edges, while the China boards are mostly nameless

2. Comes in single sheet, while the China boards are mostly double packed with a paper tape to bind them. See image 1 and 2

3. You can feel the strength by lifting both

4. Site test: Cut a small piece of both(like 1ft by 1ft), dip in water for like an hour, one comes out useless, while the other remain solid, can be dried and reused.
Thanks for the clarification..

Curious if anyone could try number 4, let's see how that worked... not that I doubt your expertise but oga, my eyes have seen something in this life...

not to derail this thread but does anyone remember when NAFDAC mandated that medications have a serial number and a verification line where one could text the serial number to verify authenticity.. boys some how, some way rigged the system.. they package a fake product with a serial number that confirms authenticity as a genuine product angry

I know a guy that is a distributor, company authorized.. but he still goes to China to make low quality product and package it like the real original product.. because he is a confirmed company authorized agent.. people think every product he sell are original. sad

No Good 12mm plasterboard sells for N6,000 per sheet bros, definitely China board which is even worse than using POP precast since what was packaged in it isn't Gypsum. Average Plasterboard like Turkish Gyprock and ABS is more than that not to talk of good boards like Siniat, Pladur and German Knauf.
How could one tell the difference between the nameless Chinese boards and the good boards like the German Knauf etc?

I know someone could say go to a dealer but sometimes the dealers repackage products.. you think you are buying the original, the real deal without knowing they repackaged a fake low quality product for you.

So is there any litmus test to tell the difference?

Wow, this plasterboard vs POP conversation is really getting interesting... the clash of the titans grin grin

As a Nairaland trained expert, my weight no reach this one.


But I still believe there are other cheaper alternatives to POP but most suppliers mission is to "ridiculously " make materials expensive instead of working on making the prices lower and more affordable.
