Dude this is super cool, I live in a house built with brick; l keep loving it everyday. Let me know when you have the contact... If it's way beyond my budget I will add regular block to cut cost. Hopefully I will achieve that dream look

You will definitely use regular blocks at the foundation level(substructure stage). At your DPC level you will introduce a beam( plinth beam) which is where you start to lay the interlock brick blocks. As a measure to cut cost you can mark out the areas where you want the bricks to be. It can be bricks eternally only and regular blocks internal. Remember this bricks are maintained by proper polishing from time to time so it maintains its colourful nature.

Hi. Please can you recommend fruits and herbs for high blood pressure for me please ?. Thanks and God bless

Good day.....
Are you certain you have it and how high is it?

I will recommend moringa seed. Max intake is 4 seeds but I recommend only 2 seeds and you observe yourself. You cannot take moringa seed if you have a low BP it is harmful at that point.


Another alternative is get the leaves of shawashop fruit plant, boil it and drink the water like tea.

You can do a combination of water melon fruit and lemon fruit. Eating the white part of the lemon helps too and not just the juice alone.



Any option you choose is okay but you are not expected to do a combination of the 3 methods stated at the same time.

Pick one method and follow. Let me also know which method you choose and how you are responding. Ensure you take sufficient rest and limit salt intakes.
Read your Bible more.
Thanks and God bless.

PearlFid:
I wanted it this way, like you give me a portion of the Bible to study and you ask me questions when I'm done studying.. I don't know if you'll have time for that. we can communicate through WhatsApp if you don't mind.

Okay. My whatsapp +234.902.7779.642.
I'll do my best as time permits.

Let's start with:
Genesis 1: 1-31 and Proverbs 1:1-33.

Take your time slowly to read as you study and meditate on it.

PearlFid:
thank you Sir, I really do appreciate

Any help regarding interpretation you can seek my attention.
You're welcome.
God bless.

With so much controversies.
Ogun state claimed not to be aware.
So with other States.

The reason why states are claiming not to be aware is because there's really no avenue for them to cash out on the program or from the stipends to be paid to the beneficiaries from the FG.

Rekhina:
I can't but imagine that the so called man of God will threaten his fellow brethren with deaths and affliction
_ who does that?
Apostle Paul has already exposed the fake humans in gatherings of faithful with just few tips _ by their fruits you shall know them

Apostle Paul was a victim of threats from so called brethrens too. Two greatest virtues of true disciples of Christ Jesus is a spirit that truly forgives and loves. The proper understanding of the word of God enables one to apply the principles for spiritual growth.

The bold in the below Scripture is what matters to God the Father, Christ Jesus the Lord and the Holy Spirit. Those who are truly of God are the beneficiaries.

Luke.10.20(NKJV) - Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven."

House built in the village is a liability

If 16m is nothing to u go ahead but if it's u hard savings build a smaller house

A house built in the village is never a liability. Yes he could smaller; but smaller in what sense?

I have an uncle who wanted to build a duplex in the village. It's quite large though and it's supposed to be his retirement house though he is not actually retired from active work. I was told about it and I asked for the design and made certain changes. The major reason for the changes was that apart from him and his wife the children are not around and do not really visit the village. Because we usually have certain oil production and services company staffs within our locality the structure was modified to a pattern that the rooms were all en-suite so it could be put for rentals but the master bedroom, guest room and main lounge are cut out from the section for rental but still maintaining the duplex status.

So he has the option of generating revenue from the building whether he stays in it or not but he usually visits once a month and when not around there's a worthy family member that takes care of the building in his absence only on his permission.

I also have another relative who wants to do same but we are looking at an expansive bungalow but with a pent house.

This is the same expired tactics your father satan keeps using... Trying to make rubbish a Believer's testimony. You'll have to try harder than that.

You've been recruited by husbandsnatcha aka sisterfire, who also types from the phone of the dumb iluvmamav.


Before you leave here, your case would be more frightful than a nightmare.

You don't know me. I died a long time with Jesus Christ, and now it is not I that lives but Christ that lives through me.


You and your partners better start running because when the fire comes, it will spare no one.

It's good to read that Christ Jesus lives through you.
It's also good from your initial post that an angel and also Jesus also made you to know the reasons behind it all.

Satan is the counterfeiter. . . . He has a false gospel (Galatians 1:6-9), preached by false ministers (2 Corinthians 11:13-15),. . . Satan plants his counterfeits wherever God plants true believers (Matthew 13:38)."

The kinds of words being used by us tells alot about what lies in our hearts and if truly we are regenerated unto Christ Jesus.


Prov 30:5a---- Every word of God is pure;

Eph 4:29--Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

Rekhina:
Ur advice is same as mine
He complains of attack which are obviously from his background ,
Advice him and get into his blackbook
Such a proud brethren

It's a good thing you have advised him too.
We are all proud brethren in Christ Jesus as we humble ourselves to His teachings with an open heart.

Doing an expository is not what Christ Jesus teaches. If we all do so it will only give more credit to the devil.

The main objective is to be completely free from it by acknowledging Christ Jesus completely and not selectively.

May Christ Jesus help us to make the right choices.

Hello Guys,

Many of us here reading this topic didn't just stumble upon it by mistake.. I welcome U all to share your spiritual experiences about seeing demons, spirits, angels or fallen angels. This would be a gift if you see these 3 all and may or may not be if U just see demons only.
The purpose of this thread is to expose the hidden works of satan & to counter attack his deceits.

I remember growing up as a child, i started to see spirits at age 11. The first spirit i saw was dressed up in a white long robe, looked so white, stood still and didn't utter a word to me. I could have taken him to be a real angel, but something didn't seem right to me, I somehow knew he wasn't real. I wasn't scared, my younger brother who was with me couldn't even see the spirit. It just stood still staring straight at me for about 3mins.. This happened at night maybe around 10pm, in my compound.

The next day while I was going to school, I fell so sick i almost died.. I was so weak it was difficult to walk and eat. I had to be brought home by one of my teachers.. Even when I told my family my story no one seemed to care or believe. And that's the problem with HSP's.. They're usually ignored.

As God would have it, almost at the brink of death, then God touched my parents and dey listened.. They prayed for me that i wud neva see such again but ever since then it's been worse (in a good way).. I even began to see spirits that looked human, ugly demons, even saw a demon inside a girl.. I began to know witches via revelations, have scary dreams, know what would happen in few minutes, hear evil thoughts from a person.. The good thing about it all is that I later knew why I was seeing and experiencing all these and also I saw an Angel and Jesus Himself, told me things about this..

Pls lets share our experiences here, You could be helping someone without knowing it. It's difficult to tell people these things in childhood or even as we grow, but it's easier to say it here, Let's edify ourselves. God bless U all

Q

What you are going through is due to your ancestral background be it paternal or maternal.

The best way to counter the devil is to foremost give yourself personally to God. You need to be born again by accepting Jesus Christ and forsaking your sins.

You need to create time to properly read, study and meditate on His word.

You need a true Pastor( male or female) to guide you in prayers.

You need to give yourself to proper fasting and prayer combined with studying the word. Doing it with a desire and open mind and the Holy Spirit will guide you to deep secrets.

Just believe and have faith in God as you overcome.

PearlFid:
i mean someone that knows The bible in dept, I want to be spiritually impacted. can you help?

It's good to desire such.
But to get it's full benefits is first for one to make Jesus Christ his Lord and personal Saviour by forsaking your sins.

Make it a habit of reading the Scriptures daily( giving time for study and meditation). Keep a note book by your side to jot down your thoughts as you are led by the Holy Spirit.

Make your desires towards seeking the knowledge and understanding of the word by prayers.

Attend a Church that preaches the pure word of God.

Make yourself useful by volunteering to work in the church but you should be focused about maintaining your personal relationship with God through Christ Jesus.

The best teacher of the word is the Holy Spirit though that of a man is to guide you.

Standing on the right foundation is paramount to holding on to your faith and retaining the free gift of salvation.

If you have any challengees as to the word you can seek for assistance here.

Find books written by proven men of God to read and to boost your knowledge.

aloziedaya:
Hello fellow nairalanders One of my plans this 2021 is to build a 5 bedroom duplex in my village in Imo state.
As a diasporan who hasn't built before, I decided to get opinions and advice from my fellows here.
Please I need your advice. I have the intention of starting it this first quarter of the year. Can my budget of N16 million finish the building? And what are the cost saving factors to embrace in building?

Moderator please.

Thank you.

It's a good thing you want to build in your home town. Nevertheless on average the amount of 16M quoted by you can get the building done. On the other hand depending on some other factors you may likely to spend up to #25M ranging from size of building, nature of land, type of finishing,etc,etc.............
Though the first step will be to get a suitable design of your choice.

I can offer you my services in case you need them. You can reach me via WhatsApp +234.902. 7779.642.

Every Sensible Nigerians know that the solution for this country is Revolution.

What u guys failed to understand is that Sowore grandchildren can never be poor... He have already secure a better life for his children unlike ur parents. This is what your parents can not do for you and that's why u end up this way.

There are different, diverse forms and aspects of revolution. Which path that chosen that does not revolutionize the thoughts and thinking of the Nigerian man then we are no place near that goal.

Nigeria and Nigerians have actually not learnt anything good and useful during the biafran war and since we have deliberately chosen to speak lies for certain gains we will always be haunted.

A better life that does not actually gives one peace of mind is nothing but a fake and borrowed life.

Thanks Boss for your response

As requested, see my feedback

1. The hight is est. 3 Step block and that's the Entrance were the spoiler chair is... From the chair to the right hand side

2. It's going to be residential but no plan for kickoff now.... Still gathering capital to begin the process

Because your building plans is still in the future I'll advice you just fill the land with the sand to your desired level. It's called land reclamation. Ensure the demolished building+road excavated sand has more of the excavated sand so that it can settle by itself over time. If you can bargain less for the sand it will be nice and hope it's a 10 tyre tipper that will be heaped to the top.

Road excavated sands are good and most economical for such purpose especially when they are closer to your site at a give-away price.

edoman2016:
I am not a builder or engineer. But the request just sound ridiculous to me. 2 units of two bedroom flat and 3 units of one bedroom flat and be fully decked for 3.5 million naira?

He is just trying to make enquires and make better plans ahead.

SilverNorGold:
I know that restaurant... I was SHOCKED when it was called HOTEL on social media... I was also SHOCKED when I read about the SEX PARTY shit on social media.. My brothers and sisters, I am telling you right now that THERE'S NO WAY A PARTY CAN BE HELD there, let alone a SEX PARTY. I suspect it's a case of MISTAKEN IDENTITY or ENEMIES AT WORK, probably a set up..

Honestly, I admire Governor El-rufai for the wonderful things he's doing in KD, but in this case, he FVCKED UP! Why demolish a restaurant, someone's sweat, cos of rumor? Well, he can still redeem his image.. He should, as a matter of urgency, apologize to the owner and compensate him.. What he did was evil, though his intentions may be genuine and well-meaning..

To the management/owner of the restaurant, the good people of Kaduna State in general and Sabo Tasha in particular are strongly behind you.. Something is being done as we speak..

God bless Kaduna state.
God bless all patriotic Nigerians.
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

There's nothing good el-rufai is doing in kaduna. Sometimes the way governors and all elected leaders and their appointees behave is like they will never vacate the office they presently occupy.
Every good or evil definitely comes with a reward at the appropriate time.

edoman2016:
Ask yourself again if 3.5 million sound possible for what you listed? Did anyone tell you building materials is produced on nairaland?

You should have encouraged him to start the build with available amount and continue to provide funds as the building processes progresses rather than trying to fight him.

kobocity:
I don’t get this...

From the original OP...
Over designs leading to waste of money is not a good engineering construction acceptable practice.
Every good design comes with a designed safety factor. A good understanding of construction engineering goes hand in hand with a good knowledge of economics.
Building out of fear to ensure the safety of a structure is not a proper proof of acquired knowledge or experience.

Amastermovic:
Good morning All,
I need to give some observation, read carefully.
As a silent reader I notice the trend of everyone wanting a steel tank stand, and materials suggestion keeps going on kindly notice the following.

Steel section are choose from expected load (tank size) ..but the bracing are always strategically place to reduce section at times or for stiffness purpose

If a steel section works in Lagos for example doesn't mean same will work in Abuja the wind pressure in each state in Nigeria is significantly different according to the wind isopleth data, so when assume this is always dangerous..

Section like UC, UB Angle iron etc all have minor axis and major axis meaning the direction of face are of important, reason you see people using CHS (recommended sizes) u don't have to worry about any local bending its strong all through .

The base plate need to be check like wise the HDB(hold down bolt)

The foundation this is important and done with three things put into consideration (weight of the steel ,wght of water , wind reactions on the structure ,live load of access also)

Not to bore you much your tank may be over designed (waste of money at least safe sha) or under designed (total waste of money and intending disaster waiting to happen)

A tank stand is a structural elements you should never toy with it because its failure is always a serious issues.

The bold is not acceptable in construction engineering in any part of the world. Any type of design that leads to wastage of resources(material, money, labour and time) is just to hide the in-experience of the individual.

Good House and Season Greetings

Happy New Year and wishing you all the best of 2021


Pls I want to fill a Land and would need some clarification or advice as listed below

1. Do I need to clear the land of the small plant and dirty on it before filling ?

2. What type of filling is best and economical

3. How much is a truck of filling and what size?
Someone offer 17k per tipper and the filling is from demolish house mixed with Road digged sand because they demolish some house for road expansion

Note: Reason for the filling is to avoid the land been water logged. Anytime it rain, the rain water and water from Drainage always sit on it

Attached is the land for your attention


Kindly advise what step to take

Thanks all

Good Morning.....
Just a couple of questions though out of curiosity

1) What's the level(height) of your land to the existing road where those spoilers chairs are kept? I'm also assuming that may not be the area where the main entrance is?
2) What are your plans to build(type of build) on the land(present or still in the future)?

rotecch77:
Yes I get you right.
Someone ask same question last week or so.
The answer is simple all building work need maintenance but when right person handle work with right tool and materials then coupled with professional supervision , then you don’t eed to entertain fair.

Do you by any chance give guarantee on jobs done and by how many years......

ahmedzippa:
I am 28 years old with a good job and a beautiful wife.
I have a serious issue with my excessive sex demands. I want to have sex with my wife everyday. After work hours, in the morning, every hour of the weekend.
The only time I don't worry about sex is during her menstrual cycle. I am a very disciplined and loyal partner. I have never cheated on her.
Please I need urgent help. I need a drug that can help reduce my sexual urge. I heard of Anti-androgens but I have no idea of where to get such drugs in Nigeria.
Please nairalanders, I need matured and sensible advises.
Thanks.

You certainly do not need that.
Since you say you are disciplined then do so by giving yourself some slack. You can start by limiting yourself to about probably three times in a week.
You can turn the rest of the time to gisting.
Also you can pay more time to studying the word of God.

Which do you prefer?

Do you have any other roof options to add here.
Roof pattern 1 is just too plain.

spyder880:
Let's do this again, which do you prefer, and why?

The high roof, or the contemporary style?

Roof pattern 3...basically aesthetic.

Good day Sir
Please what would be the present cost of doing same ?

topsy23:
At peak period when 80-90% of the loads are running 20KVA will not be able to carry the whole loads ..

I have price of caterpillar and JMG
caterpillar don't have 27KVA what they have is 22KVA and 33KVA

22KVA is 3.450m
33KVA is 4.560m
They are soundproof

Okay.
Thanks.

Gov. Nyesom Wike is the man. His leadership qualities is what is needed for the times we are in.

Project update.
3 weeks gone, few to go.
Esan South-East LGA, Edo state

Nice work you have here.
Is this column point on the window an over site to correcting something or what's the purpose of it's placement?

topsy23:
I have already diversified my total load with 0,6

That is 60%

Basically based on load diversification are you saying a 20 or 25KVA will not work optimally for the build.
Also what's the likely cost difference between a 27KVA and 25KVA on any good model.
