There is one basic question people are not asking: Was Gbaja convicted of the offence of fraud and dishonesty in Georgia, USA?

We need to start putting sentiments, emotions and tribe aside and seek the truth.

We should expect basic rectitude from our citizens and leaders alike.

If a student is known to lie and commit fraud, can he/she be elected as class prefect at King's College or Queens College Lagos, Govt College Ibadan, Christ The King's College Onitsha, St Finbarr's Yaba, ICC Benin-City, FGGC Owerri, FGGC Zaria or any other reputable Secondary school, never mind NASS?

Well from the info getting to Nigerians through the media you can tell which........
But did he serve jail time?


If I may ask, who was your candidate in the last presidential election?

TheNaijanBlog:
When people always say the problem of Nigeria is the leaders I always laugh. So this is a man that violated the trust of his clients. He stole $25k closed his firm and left the country only to pay back 4 years later after he was forced to. So tell me hasn’t the man shown you he can’t be trusted with any kind of political power?

We say we have bad leaders but then we ELECT and support them. If he is willing to risk jail time in America where there is rule of law, imagine what he can and will do in Nigeria. Only in Nigeria.

Please kindly inform us of whatever crime he committed that amounts to jail time?
Show us the documents of if all?

And if I may ask who was your candidate in the last presidential election!

Are you saying just 2 months there has been no water and its now restored?
Meanwhile in Bayelsa State, the water board corporation does not have water for more than 6 years.

OGHENAOGIE:
your useless emotional stance doesn't change anything that is Real...this is why we are clamouring for constitutional reforms to give lga more power so that governors won't ride over lga executives

You still don't know what you're talking. That's as real as it can get.

chriskosherbal:
Thank you my bro, I just wonder been a former CBN Governor a brilliant one at that, it won't be a bad idea if he had ran for the position of a state Governor ..


He is far too sound, educated, intelligent and exposed when compared with Ganduje but had to go for kingship ..that will confine you to a palace .

Will it not be awkward for a Prince to a servant to his people rather than the opposite.
Have you seen anyone from the royal house in England or else where or even a duke be gunning to become a prime minister.
E-SLS 2, possess those qualities you highlighted. But to be able to use such to bring transformation within his emirate, he needs to work with a governor to actualise that.
But there's something about the culture of the Northern people that has to be addressed to be able to actualise such.
The north has practically been in power for years and yet so many things are still out of place within their territories.

OGHENAOGIE:
the constitution has no role for traditional rulers here...de are just mere rulers nothing more

You seem not to have respect for traditional institutions.

SirBunky85:
u lots are now demonizing ganduje.na sanusi even suppose dey for that seat?wasn't his installation as emir political? una go just dey rant anyhow like say sanusi no first f.up by usurping the emir's seat wch ordinarily wasn't his

Where are you getting your history from?
His grandfather was an emir. Do you know how he was dethroned?
I can't tell how the selection of emir is done within the royal house but for years its been too political.

Hi nairalanders this post is going to be quite disorganized, as I am not such a good writer. Just need an avenue to let our some steam. No advise needed too. The only way forward for me is to quit my marriage.

The reason for this write up is to ease the pain of betrayal that comes from my husband cheating on me with a our neighbor,what really hurts is that after I investigated and found out her identity, I presented him with hard evidence ,instead of an apology he said he is an African man o and polygamy is allowed. He says I should better mind my business as the said girl is not disturbing me. He further stated that the girl is crazy o, so I should not even think of confronting her

Just this morning she had the nerve to come to my apartment with her room mate to clarify some house issues. The nerve of all of them. Really want to make them pay. Really want to make my husband suffer.
This guy body shames me at any chance he gets. (I have a four month old baby) he says am ugly and shapless, and my breast are flat

I want African men to know that women have feelings too, am expected to bottle up my pain and be a woman. When I react violently he calls me mad woman. He is still with her and I am still expected to mind my business.
I will though, but they will both get it.

Firstly, it would be nice if you present your case to your families especially to your husband parents. Or any one who is an elder your husband holds in high regard.
The issues in marriage comes in different forms and it takes grace and extra-ordinary maturity to excel in the home.

You have highlighted some points.........guess you'll have to work on yourself after your baby have passed the age of breast feeding. I'm guessing he still provides for you and the baby. Nonetheless please try and get something doing that will give you an extra. If there's a way the girl in question can be made to stop coming in your home, please find a way to do that peacefully not leading to quarrels or fights whatsoever. Most importantly ensure the safety of your child and yourself at all times and be at alert.

Whatever qualities he saw in you before the marriage ensure that they are still there and make an improved version of them.
Pray and Pray in ways you've not done before. Cry out your heart to God.
Put your trust in God.

Does anyone residing in Delta State have an idea how much is a plot of land around the Uwagba axis?
Someone is in need of a 100×100........
Thanks

16mm

Okay.
Run 6 columns of size 225×150mm. Let the stirrup spacing on your columns be 150mm.
Run an external beam, centre beam on the deck when you mat.
Use a mix of 1:2:2.
Reduce the tank size to 1500 litres.

Hello builders in the building. Please am having challenges on the new site am posted to. The site was constructed using frame structure and its a 2bedroom flat of 2 upper floors. I joined them on the second floor blockwork which has already been setout. My challenges now is that I noticed when my bricklayers follow block that has been set makes d blockwork deviate from the column at both sides for more than one inche. Though, we try as much as possible to make sure it align with the beam. My fear is, when the plastering will be done it may requires more plasters to cover those thickness. So, professionals, advice me if I should continue aligning my blockwork with the beams or I should set my blockwork with the columns which I think are the major cause of this challenges we are having.

You are supposed to align your block form work course by course to the frame structure(columns-beams). That's the most simple form to build. And you have the house plan handy as guude to put any partition wall internally. Except if you feel the frame structure(columns-beams) are not aligned in the manner they ought to.

mank1234:
To th gurus in the house please help with this:

We want to put a 2000 litres water tank on top of a decking so we want to determine proper size for the columns. The wall is 6inches and we don't want the column to be visible: we want it embedded in the wall.
The columns will be at the four corners of a rectangle of 2.4m by 1.2m.

A friend said 9in by 9in column would have been best but that considering my conditions I should go for 18in by 6in. Can 12in by 6in column withstand the weight?

What size of steel bar do you intend to use?

ceelog:
Hello all

I want to share this idea with everyone and I don't think I have ever seen it before on NL.

It's filling the embedded aluminum bars of the casement with rise granite concrete (sometimes with a 8mm rod inside).

The idea was generated when an argument ensued that using 12mm or 16mm rods welded at the tops (and bottom) has made it easy for thieves to cut through the aluminum pipe and the rods,

The initial idea was not to fix the rods but let them freely move which makes it difficult to cut.

But with a concrete filled aluminum burglary bars, the cutter blade for metal cannot cut through concrete without blunting it.

But remember to have one or two safety-decor windows without concrete for emergencies.

See the pic attached below.

Let's discuss it!!!

It's a good thing.
But it would not hold a determined thief.
The aim of levels of security is to at least prevent the intruder from getting into the safe room till external help arrives.
I think other security measures should be put in place to reduce the time to get external help.
The security of life is of utmost importance.

Hi Guys,

I need advice from those who are well versed in building.
I want to construct a three(3) storey build with H or I-Beam with concrete for the pillars and small I-Beam for the floors instead of the usual concrete and rod. I know H/I-Beam is stronger than concrete with rod but i need validation. Has someone done similar job before? What is the cost like?

Thanks in anticipation.

If I'm not mistaken are you referring to "concrete steel composite structures/steel concrete composite structures?
If you have, not entirely certain such has been done in Nigeria. The cost will depend on the overall design of the entire structure. But in all, it will be cost efficient (I hope I'm using the right word) or should I say it would be of lower cost if such structure is more than a single unit to the developer.

JWTheocracy1:
Good day house, please how much would build a 5 bedroom bungalow with self contained each, from starting to finishing. Proposed destination is Imo state with a step tile roofing. Please I need a very need a good estimate.

Your 5 bedroom bungalow detailed house plan given to a QS or Engineer to quantify will tell a better estimate.

Some persons were laughing themselves because certain personalities were not in attendance.
If I may ask, let one person point to any true elder statesman better than Gowon?


Now that the S-E governors have congratulated PMB those bitter persons have started showing their hypocrititc attitude as always.

Wait till 12th of June and see what next will unfold..............

Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Thank You For Your Response And Advise.

The Property Owner Is Away, And So The Wife Is Making Moves To Take Over The Property. I Have Been Making Payments Like This Previously. The Difference Is That After I Made The Payment In September 2018 And On/About The Ending Of March 2019, She Came With Another Agent/Notice That She's Changing From The Lawfirm We'd Been Paying Through. So After She Introduced The New Guy, I Went To Inform Her That I Had Already Made Part-Payment To Them Through The Husband's Nominated Attorney. I Also Immediately, Informed The Attorney I Paid To And He Promised To Sort It Out, That They Were Still Representing The Man.

The Question Is, The Payment I Made (Though In Part) Took Effect This Month, He Notice From Her Attorney To Me Yesterday Duly Acknowledge That I Have Paid But Still Went Ahead To Insinuate In The Notice That I Am A Tenant At Will (Tenant Holding Onto A Property After Expiration Of Rent)?

Guess you have your receipt of part payment handy.
Probably the lady is trying to play a fast one on her husband or his property lawyers due to unresolved issues.
If you have the time, kindly write to the property lawyers via your lawyer inquiring if they have resolved with the lady. And that you'll sue for damages, both the property lawyers and lady should any harm come to you or your properties.
Apply wisdom.

Have you been having quarrels with your landlord/caretaker?

Now If there's no pre-notice as to your eviction from the property owner, then you stand a good chance to make a case.
Did you discuss such payment pattern with the property owner before making the payment or have you been making payments like that previously?

Giving that you've made such payment and the property owner wants you to leave the property kindly ask for your full refund and move on. The time one would put to waste to argue with a property owner should be put to find a better apartment to relocate to.

Thank you Jesus

Nice. It's been quite long I did real leisure travelling.
So what's the T.fare from from like Kaduna-Abuja-Aba?

There's nothing to investigate...majority of the military officers in the Niger Delta are engaged in Oil bunkering. They steal Oil and sell in the high sea and all Niger Delta Governors are aware but most of them can't speak out because they are renowned cowards except Wike.

If you know the kind of flamboyant lifestyle these soldiers in the Niger Delta are living eh, it would baffle you

Does Wike have proofs to show.
Why the need to investigate?
We don't want to be hearing someone is implicating someone.
As far as I'm concerned Wike is pained that he can't control the GOC.
But all the same he can send his full proofs to the required quarters if they exists.

Good move, there should also eliminate state of origin and use state of residence instead, because this ish of state discrimination is causing harm than good. "TRIBAL NONSENSE'

State of origin is very important.
Your address in your CV already highlights your state of residence.

As if it is local rice he is eating in his house.....
Nonsense and ingredient.....SMH
do we produce enuf rice to feed this hungry country?
the sand inside local rice plenty pass the rice itself

There's much local rice to feed the country.

Anyone still eating local rice with stone is still buying from the wrong person.
Go ask for local rice without stone, its available in the market even in bags.
I've been buying and eating local rice for about 8 months now.

Just know how to cook it and you'll enjoy it.

Thanks for stopping by.

No, the customization can't be done.

There is a smaller type, but it is a different design.

Let me know if you'd like to see a picture.

Good day.....
Please post the picture of the smaller type.
Though I'd preferred if these symbols were on rings.
Thanks.
