Seem you don't get it,
We measured 550sqm for the roofing, he went ahead and give the job to one of his inlaw he bought 600sqm
Now the inlaw get back to him that the 600sqm not enough to finish the project
One of the many mistakes clients make is to take a quotation from one prospective contractor and give it to another person to handle the same quotation.
That is self deception.

Please how much is the cost of the suspended ceiling per SQM?

Modified:
I've seen your response of #2700+accessories. per SQM and #650 installation.
Please would you be so kind to share the address/contact details of where it was purchased?
Thanks.

Does the security guard have access to the entire building where this happened and was there work on going during when this was noticed?

Hello my people,

Nigeria is showing me pepper of recent. I got one land in an estate still within Ibeju-Lekki and I got allocated last year December or so. A few months later, we got news that another RE company came to claim the whole estate. (This estate is covered with genuine global C of O).

Since then (March 2022), the company has been begging and asking for more time to either get the estate back or relocate us.

From March till now, nothing has changed, been intouch with all the major players in the company (MD, CTO, secretary and even their lawyer), yet begging and stories are what I keep getting.

Can anyone recommend a better approach to getting my refund or at least getting another land without going the legal route?

I have 2 cases in court already (LAG and PH), one from last year June and another from July this year and I don't like the progress at all (Too much adjournments and excuses from the sitting judges and registrars) apart from the money it keeps taking from me.

Is the court the only way here? (Actually told their lawyer I was going to serve them papers but he said it will only prolong the matter).

Make una advise me abeg, this country is giving me some serious double mind.

Anyone with similar experience and how was it resolved?

Not sure if I made a mistake believing in this country.
All you need is to go in your knees and with a sincere and open heart pray to God about it. And tell Him what you want.

You can only speak for yourself and not others. The ibos who refused to vote for Ojukwu, the same ibos who sold out Chuba Okadigbo, the ones who neglected the advice of Great Zik of Africa will still be the same ones who will vote against POS. They did not vote for their brethrens who were presidential aspirants in PDP and APC at the primaries. They still will not do so at the general elections.

Yea, it will reduce bloated figures but it won't eliminate rigging totally, as there are other ways rigging can be done.

Trust Politicians at your peril. Be sure they are currently working on how to bypass all the measures put in place by INEC.

I still want in-depth analyses of how the BIVAS can terminate malpractice though.
The only way BIVAS can terminate malpractice and rigging is when the device can actually authenticate and validate voters' finger print and facial recognition.

If there's a setback rule for gatehouse, I'm not aware of it.
A good builder/engineer creates setbacks in the absence of non.....or probably those who decided to create their own setback are probably just doing what is not acceptable.

I am a better candidate because of my track records, I have produced many people, starting from councillors, house of assembly members, Senate, Reps. and governors, yet they are pointing accusing fingers at me.


The bolded alone speaks for itself. Is there any candidate who can beat this. Because all those that he brought onboard have their track records speaking for them be it you like them or not. Certain times sentiments should be thrown into the dustbin. If one man can without hassle bring Lagos to development without OBJ giving him state allocation it talks of how sensible he is. You don't need to like him to speak the truth.

If for any reason the CBN governor wants to venture into full time politics he should first start by trying to get the governorship form in his home state like the former governor in the person of Gov. Charles Soludo or he can start by becoming a local government chairman. Trying to become a president in Nigeria is like biting more than what he can chew.

If truly Pa Edwin Clark is a Stateman and a Patriotic one then he should set an example by first telling th PDP which is his party to without any form of feet dragging give the the presidential ticket to the South East and let those in the PDP who are of that zone should do the needful. He should also remember the APC is not a party to that arrangement since the South East have bluntly spoken that the APC is a fulani party and by their stand they don't even have a formidable crowd in the party to seize a ticket.

Reading from the comments and by the new law by INEC on the issue of consensus candidate do you think anyone can force the Jagaban to append his signature to such thing even if they find something incriminating to hang him on because that may be their next line of action and would PMB agree to that.
Meanwhile note that the GEJ strategy planners have already failed and that already is a past issue.

Those saying Gov. Dave Umahi made a foolish mistake should have a rethink because as long as Gov. Wike remains in PDP he has the teeth to bite whatsoever is not in his favour and anything not in his favour coming 2023 he will not use the state machinery in anybody's favour. So what may likely happen is a 50/50 or 60/40 voting of the electorates be it real or the polimagic.

Dem don come again with their low IQ.
Every primary school child knows that Nigeria , especially the south is Tropical rain forest.
Common sense would tell you that when you remove the forest (grass and trees) then you have the rain to deal with. Rain causes erosion.

Concrete flooring is deliberate removal of this natural protection, thus creating a problem. You migt have the resources to put some artificial protective measures like concrete flooring on your property.

But that does not negate the fact that a problem was created by your actions where there was no problem in the first place.
Are you trying to talk about flooding because I'm trying to understand the effects of erosion in a properly built environment.......

Since you refused to do the needful when she was alive; You've got to go and pay her dowry or leave the boy as their daughter's son as she was never your wife... It is the right thing to do in the igbo culture
@StilmanVsBorn2w

It's not just only in Igbo culture but most areas within the south south. It's acknowledged by you and her people knows that you have the intention of getting married to her. So invariably what they are telling you to do is to come and pay the dowry of you truly want this child.
This is not about a tribal issue. If you're sincere with yourself and if your mom or anyone from your place will tell you the truth, it's also applicable in your own place, that if you want to lay claim to the child.

A full plot is sufficient enough to give you that which you desire. In which State is the plot located and is it within a city, town or village...... knowledge of that can aid to the cost of construction.

The current weather is dealing with some properties.

The whole wall of a building (1st floor) under construction was destroyed in my estate of recent.

The person in charge confessed they didn't include any pillar during the block settings which they have now decided to do.

Why waste money when you could have just done it from the onset?

Now this is a building meant to be rented out.

Is it normal practise to build without pillars especially on the island?
Why would any sane person build a storey building of any sort without introducing appropriate columns/pillars in a time when even bungalows are built with columns irrespective to f soil type.......

My statement is clear, no need dragging.

Attended 3 different branches for some years apart from having 2 relatives as pastors there, so not talking in isolation.

But I will stop here before this generate to something else because I know how fanatic/overzealous some Nigerians can be when religion is mentioned.
Those over zealous ones are like the Pharisees and Sadducees. They should all thoroughly behave like Nicodemus and not be living sanctimonious ways.
Anyone claiming to be a Christian should strive to have the virtues of Christ Jesus for it is because of the knowledge of Him that His disciples the early apostles were first called Christians. Remember Scripture says another had to take the place of Judas Iscariot because he was not befitting to be counted as one of them.
