A lot of people read but can't decipher because they can't think for themselves.
Some read but can't tell when the author is filling history with sentiments and half truths.

For those who chant "restructuring" what exactly does the promoters of this new found love word mean and where is the acclaimed template to use?
How entirely is it different from those who shouted resource control?

Nigeria have practiced regional system; how well did we fare?
Now our half styled federal system; where is it taking us to?

In a country where a politician at the federal level leaves a party for another and majority of the elected officials at the state and local government level follows the same line, then you should know that this country is not yet ripe for state police whatsoever.

Romance › Re: My Supposed 28 Years Old Boyfriend Shared Me With His Friends To Tempt Me by bixton(m): 9:27am On Aug 26, 2018
Loveisascam:
My experience dating a 28 years old stupid boy - Age and place of employment does not necessarily mean maturity.

I and my bf have been friends online before we finally decided to meet. After meeting, we mutually decided to start dating.

Unknown to me my bf had shared me with two of his friends to tempt me. Friend 1 chatted me up but I didn't give him any attention so he stopped all conversations with me. Friend two chatted me up too but somehow he was able to get my attention. I however clearly told him I had a boyfriend and was not interested in any romantic relationship with him. He told me he didn't have any issues with it but that we could still be friends.

I am a very sincere and open person and so I told my bf about my friendship with Friend two. I usually share screenshots of my conversations with Friend two with my bf. I did not hide any thing from him because I had no intentions to cheat. I was very transparent.

Little did I know that my bf on the other hand was also busy sharing everything that has transpired between us including very sensitive information like our sexual styles, the state of my vagina and even my financial status with his friend.

My bf told friend two to stop the game and leave me alone. Friend two refused. According to him, he realised I was not the slut my boyfriend painted me to be and thought I will be a great catch for a girlfriend.

To discourage him, my bf started slandering me to him.He even went to the extent of telling his friend that
the last time I visited, he didn't enjoy the sex because my vagina was wide and that I had probably slept with some people before meeting him.

I had told friend two that the next time I visit my bf, I will endeavour to make arrangement so we can see too since him and bf stay in the same location. However on visiting my bf, I changed my mind and rather told him to visit my base if he really wants us to meet. He agreed to come around. I told my bf about my plan to meet friend two but didn't tell him that friend two had agreed to come to my base.

Friend two told my bf of his plan to come and visit me in my base and that finally he is going to have his way with me. My bf tried to discourage him from coming but he refused.

My bf was then forced to confess what he had done but told me not to let his friend know he has told me.

I kept chatting and receiving calls from friend two without revealing to him that I knew what he was up to.

After 3 days, I decided to let friend two know that my bf told me about their game. He was shocked and started opening up all my bf told him about me.

He told me my bf never really loved me and that he was with me because he didn't have to spend. I didn't ask him for money and even when I come to visit, I don't ask for tp.

Friend two also told me that my bf said I will be useful in his plans to relocate to Canada as he will convince me he wants us to marry, and that I should support him relocate first and then later when he is stable he will come back to Nigeria so we can wed and then he can bring me over. Meanwhile his actual plan is to relocate to Canada and marry a white girl for citizenship. I would never have suspected this could be my bf plans because he works in an averagely good place where he earns averagely well.

Friend two then advised me never to reveal my financial status to any man and to be selfish when I love. He said he still genuinely wants to date me and that he is sorry.

I am not stupid though. Friend 2 and my bf are idiots. I cannot date any one of them. I have blocked both of them.

This experience has shattered me though. I will never ever trust any man again even the man I marry. I used to believe in the idea of shared finances in marriage but not anymore. No managing with any man.

Men are scum. Love is a scam. The so called bf is a nairalander and I know he makes sensible comments here to deceive innocent girls who don't actually know he is a fool and a scammer.
They have both opened up differently on their plans. You had the opportunity of putting up a date where both of them will show up and you were supposed to play dirty back on their game and you refused.

Come let me teach you a strategy.
Crime › Re: Woman, Sister Stab Husband With Broken Bottle Over Male Child In Lagos (Graphic) by bixton(m): 4:04pm On Aug 24, 2018
aminulive:
@POLITICSNGR

A man identified as Victor Nwobuike escaped death by whiskers after his wife, Mrs. Stella Robert Iwu and her sister, Chioma allegedly attacked him with Broken bottles.
According to an eyewitness and Facebook User, Nnamdi Obiakalusi, Chioma Iwu reportedly stabbed Nwobuike Severally as seen in the photos below.  In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, Nwobuike claims that his wife wants him dead over his inability to give her a male child.

Victor and Stella have been married for 13 years. He stated;

Some last year June, she invited me to a church by name divine majesty prayer ministry at Ijesha Tedo for spiritual counselling.

The pastor of the church said that I was possessed by a female demon which he claimed that I had an affair with in Port-Harcourt some years back. The pastor of the church told my wife that I was possessed by a strong female demon, and she was advised by the pastor to divorce me.

On the 17th of June 2018 at about 10:30 pm armed kidnappers in the company of my wife came into our home at lekki garden estate Ajah. I was abducted and molested with severe gun buts and barrel injuries and then taken away by four fully armed men wearing police uniform.

They took me toward ogombo area of Ajah. On our way, my phone rang in my pocket and it got them panicking. Along the Road they parked the vehicle close to a black Honda car, one of the kidnappers came down and went straight into the parked Honda vehicle, then I looked through the window and noticed that the driver of the Honda vehicle was Mr. Bennet Robert iwu who is my wife's elder brother,then the kidnapper that stepped out of the vehicle came back to our vehicle.

My phone was taken away from me and I was seriously rough handled and was thrown by the wayside to die gradually.

The case was formally reported to the ogombo police station which is still under investigation, the police compelled Stella to produce the kidnappers or face trial.

I spent the next three days at Badu specialist hospital, due to the injury sustained. Some weeks after my wife invited her younger sister, Chioma Blessing Iwu to our home. Four years ago, this Chioma Iwu was sent away from our home because of her wayward lifestyle and bad influence on our two daughters.

On the 27th of July 2018 in the evening, I noticed in my room that my valuables, cash, and documents has been stolen. On the morning of 28th July, I asked my wife, Stella, who took away the valuables in my room? she got angry that I am accusing her of stealing.

She got into a brawl with me and while I was trying to calm her down she called on her sister Chioma Iwu who was downstairs at the guest room.

She came with a broken bottle and started stabbing me all over my body, while my wife held me down. having been stabbed and left to die while my wife looks on, out of fear, she quickly called the police who then appeared at the hospital.

That I am alive today was courtesy of an Uber driver, an angel sent by God to ensure that I live. On the issue of a loan of 5 million as purported by my wife, she never gave me any loan and will never because I know who she is.

Please let her produce evidence of loan. I am from a noble family and I am bound not to engage myself in certain act, that's the name my wife wanted to tarnish at all cost. The matter was hence transferred to criminal investigation department PANTI Lagos where my wife and her sister blessing were detained for 7 days thereafter where granted bail by Nigeria police. Attached are pictures of Stella iwu nwobike and her sister blessing and also pictures of the dastardly attack on me.

It's so sad that this has to happen to you.
But there have being signals from abuse from your wife all along from your statement.
My life is worth more than any love for any woman or staying in marriage or tolerating rubbish from my so called in-laws even to the extent of kidnapping.
No way........I have left such marriage and family a long time ago.
Family › Re: Tope Mark-Odigie: Your Husband Has Right To Do Whatever He Wants With Your Body by bixton(m): 3:42pm On Aug 24, 2018
solomoneey:
GOSSIPLOUD.COM

Few days ago, a Nigerian doctor via his twitter handle, shared the story of how a husband connived with his doctor to remove his wife's womb because he doesn't want her to have more children. This happened in Festac town, Lagos.

According to the husband, himself and his wife agreed to have just three children but now they have five. After the birth of the 5th child, he connived with the doctor to remove her womb without her consent. He said he cannot see himself using condom to have sex with his wife. The wife has also stated previously that she doesn't like taking birth control pills because they make her bloated. Read story here.

This morning, the hosts of TVC's show, The View, discussed the issue and one of the presenters, Tope Mark-Odigie, was of the opinion that as long as a woman has gotten married to a man traditionally, he has the right to do whatever he wants to do with her.

According to her, it is the culture that we practice. She stated that traditional weddings have been created to give the impression that a woman is being bought by a man.

https://gossiploud.com/2018/08/24/your-husband-has-the-right-to-do-whatever-he-wants-with-your-body-presenter-tope-mark-odigie/
It's one thing to say a word but it'll be nice if you can explain better so people don't give it a different meaning.
No husband owns the body of his wife and does not have the right to do whatever he feels like to/with the body.
There's no tradition or even religion whatsover that says that. That only happens when we have people whose brain did not form well prior to birth due to lack of glucose and substantial oxygen to the brain.

Is it not in the same usual pattern both president or speaker was elected on the floor?
So why can't they be removed in like manner if need be................

Politics › Re: 'We Will Resist Any Attempt To Illegally Impeach Saraki' – Senator Gyunka by bixton(m): 9:11pm On Aug 15, 2018
Trendvoice:
A Federal lawmaker, Sen. Philip Gyunka, on Wednesday in Lafia, said that any plot to illegally impeach the President of the Senate, Dr Bukola Saraki, will be strongly resisted.

Gyunka, representing Nasarawa North, said this at a rally to mark his official declaration to run for Nasarawa State governorship election.

Gyunka, who expressed concern over the role played by the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr Adams Oshiomhole in the matter, said the position of the Constitution on who should be President of the Senate was clear.

According to him, unlike majority and minority leadership, which are from majority and minority parties, a lawmaker can be president of the senate irrespective of party affiliation.

“Besides that, there are conditions for impeachment should lawmakers be dissatisfied with whoever they chose to lead them.

“The law is clear on this. If two third majorities say they do not want him, he will be removed.

“But for Oshiomhole to keep threatening that Saraki must be impeached when he is not a lawmaker, beats my imagination.

“It is obvious from all his threats that there might be plans to do something unlawful, which we will resist vehemently.

“It beats my imagination that Nigeria, a country that should play the big brother when it comes to respect for the rule of law would be disgracing itself before the international community with this kind of development.”

He pointed out that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmakers were already keeping vigil to stop any of such moves.

“We are keeping watch on their plans.

“If they want the Senate President removed, which is im[b]possible they must have two third majorities.[/b]

“They have been attempting and failing. I know they will still make attempts but they will not succeed because I know Nigerians will not allow them to make mockery of the nation’s democracy.

“If you hear a lawmaker speaking, he is speaking the minds of thousands of people.

“How then should someone, who was appointed and has neither gone to the rural areas to feel the pulse of the people, nor held town hall meeting be insisting that a man that was duly chosen by of his colleagues be removed at all course.

“Oshiomhole should be educated that this is not unionism. This is an issue that has to do with the Constitution and we will not allow him to violate it,” he said.

On his ambition to run for the governorship election of the state, Gyunka said it was borne out of passion to bring the state out of the woods.

He said it was disheartening that despite huge human and mineral resources among other potentials, the state had not been able to meet the needs of the people.

He called on Nigerians take advantage of the forthcoming general elections to vote for people that have their interests at heart.

He urged them to go beyond expressing their grievances, to getting their Permanent Voter Cards (PVC) before the expiration date, to vote for people that would meet their needs and aspirations.

According to him, all the crises we are facing as a nation today is because we keep voting in the wrong persons.

The Nasarawa State PDP Chairman, Mr Francis Orugu, while wishing Gyunka the best in his political ambition, decried the crisis in the national assembly.

He expressed concern at the manner in which the APC national chairman was piloting the affairs of the party.

According to him, a country that is going through so many challenges, particularly in the buildup to the 2019 general elections does not require further tension.

“As leaders, we should not overheat the polity because people are already living in fear.

“I was also a legislator in the State House of Assembly; I know what leadership is all about.

“Unfortunately, Oshiomhole wants to direct that there must be a change of leadership because he is no longer comfortable with Saraki because he left APC.

Orugu called on Nigerians to rise to the occasion by speaking against any action that would subject the country to ridicule before the international community.

@myNAIJAinfo

Presidential Aspirant under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has declared that Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike deserves a second term on the strength of his projects.

The Former Kano State Governor spoke at the Government House Port Harcourt on Monday night during a condolence visit on Governor Wike over the death of the Attorney General of Rivers State, Hon Emmanuel Aguma (SAN).

He said: "We pray God to give us long life and health to see you completing a second term so that you can revolutionise the entire state."

Kwankwaso commended Governor Wike for leading the state towards a positive direction.

"After these four years, if you have another four years , only God knows the height the state will attain", he said.

On the death of the Attorney General of Rivers State, Kwankwaso prayed for the repose of his soul.

The Former Kano State Governor who was accompanied by the Former Edo State Governor, Chief Lucky Igbinedion and Former Presidential Economic Adviser, Dr Magnus Kpakol and other leaders also met with the Rivers State Governor behind closed doors.

In his remarks, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike said that the death of the Attorney General of Rivers State is a great loss to the state and the PDP.

He said that since the Late Attorney-General, Hon Emmanuel Aguma (SAN) assumed the office, the State Government has never had crisis on legal issues.

The governor expressed happiness that Senator Kwankwaso is back to the PDP, noting that Kwankwaso will be valuable in the victory of PDP in 2019.

"We are working together under one umbrella, believing God will help us as 2019 approaches ", he said.

Clay soil is not red mud or laterite. It is the clay used in making traditional clay pots. It expands when wet or contrast when dry. Clay soil is prevalent in riverine areas, river beds or dried out river. If you find your land clayey, excavate till you get to stable soil like red mud/laterite before laying your foundation.
Ok.
I thought you were referring to "filling/back filling of foundation/area around structure with clay soil.

It's your next sentence that made mention of "clay soil on a foundation ", is a no no.

Probably I don't grasp your use of English, you're now referring to erecting a building on clay soil.


And these buildings you posted, do the down not form as a basement?

From my experience with Edo and Delta (Bendel), is either subsidence or differential settlement or both. Subsidence is caused when a building’s foundations sink because the soil is unstable. Contributory factors are clay soil, vegetation that draws water from the soil, and leaking drains or underground river. To find solution is to first understand the historical sub-structure of your land:

# was it previously used as a refuse dump site?
#was the land flat or partially hilly or rocky in some part?
# is the land close to the famous Benin Moat or erosion prone?
# is the land clayey?

It is only when you can find the answer to why the land is unstable can a lasting solution be found. I can hazard a guess that if your land was not a former refuse dump, it may be that your foundation filling and back filling was done with clay soil. Clay soil on a foundation is a no no. No cosmetic work like arbitrary introduction of columns as has been suggested will do. From the limited pix you attached, any lasting solution must include foundation excavation in one form or the other. It may even mean foundation underpinning. This is excavating beyond the foundation to a stable soil to introducing beam(s) under the current foundation. Demolishing the entire building is not a good advice. Solution is readily available.
Sir,
Are you referring to clay soil as in "the red mud" we all know.
If it is there's no construction document saying its use will result to foundation defect in buildings.
There are more than 10 pix of buildings on NL where such is used and those who used it are on the forum with us.



Please how does one introduce beam as you suggested in that buildings' foundation as it is now?
