If you have sense, you would have known that Geometric is a Genco, disco and transmission company. The transmission line alone runs over 150,000 KM.

The cost of building 100 MW of solar plant is $390 million in South Africa. Now imagine what it'll cost to build a 188MW gas plant with 25km gas pipeline and 150,000KM transmission lines.

Fear God o!!! 150k km is more than the distance from Lagos to London by 10 times

Armaggedon:
That won't be enough for a mini estate.

Says who? 11MW would power like 5000 homes

Ozommadu:
Julius Berger that is handling almost all the roads in Abia is a local contractor abi??

Must you comment?

Well, JB certainly didn't construct the road in the pictures above.

Ttipsy:
FG should actually work with this guy and not the other way round

He has a vision

Honestly. If I were BAT, I'd issue a memo to NCAA and FAAN that Air Peace be given every reasonable support to actualize

Abuja to London
Lagos to Houston
Lagos to Toronto
Lagos to New York

MT:
It is 1180 in the SW

Lies, I called Aboki on broad Street, Marina now and he said he will buy at 1270 and sell at 1275

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2024/04/energy-crisis-more-troubles-for-power-plants-as-fg-increases-gas-price-by-11/

And based on this new gas price, what is a cost reflective tarrif!? Is it N90? Is it N120? Is it N160?

Maybe we should start there first

Ask any civil engineer who really knows what he or she studied and they will tell you that Concrete roads are by far better.

Even with the cost of cement now, its advantage outweighs its disadvantage.



Copied: 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

So tell me why The roads done by JB in Lagos in 2001, which I assume are asphalt are still superb

Awolowo road, Ikoyi
Kudirat Abiola, Oregon
Broad str, Marina
Inner Marina
Tejuosho rd, Yaba

Jeezuzpick:
I can tell you a few reasons why I disagree with you.

You sound like a construction professional, so I will make free with the terminology.

One major advantage of flexible pavements is ease of maintenance.

You can get easily cut out potholes and fill with fresh asphalt, while you get problems with bonding and shrinkage in the case of concrete roads.

Super elevation of roads, where vertical curves are merged with horizontal curves, is handled better during construction with flexible pavements, because the sub-base and road base already have the geometry and you just lay the base and wearing courses to follow suit.

Concrete pavers tend to lay pavement in flat planes, so vertical transition can be a problem. Result? Bumpy ride around curves.

In Africa where we have intense heat in the day and relatively cool nights, thermal expansion is also a problem, especially when you consider the expansion differential between concrete and the reinforcing steel bars. Result? Some hideous cracks with sharp, jagged edges that can fuckup your tyres.

I say Asphaltic roads are waaay better from cost to operation and maintenance.

Thermal expansion should be worse in Europe cos the temperature differential there is even more. Houston can go from 23C in the day to 5c at night. Not sure I've ever seen temperature differential more than 5C in a day between high and low in southern Nigeria.

Bunnatex:
I prefer Asphalt as it's smoother for the car to run on.

But then I'm just thinking, can't both work out? Like to a concrete road and then smoothen it with Asphalt.



NB: This is just an Accountant asking, I'm not an expert in Engineering...

That can be done and is what you see play out on bridges because bridges are concrete to begin with and asphalt laid on top. That's why 3rd mainland bridge repair was so fast, cos the concrete base is still there and solid.

Godada:


Sadly the OP is misguided.

This is the mumbling of an emotionally battered and subdued man that wants to be free.

Truthfully, he could have lost it and escalated the whole scenario but methinks that the dude is a weakling.

The tremor in his voice says it all though that can help his case in the court of law as he seems for divorce.

It's debatable that this can happen in the advanced countries but I doubt if any right thinking woman would do that to a man that is in control of his world financially.

Escalate for what! Yankee aint like Nigeria where you start descending on the woman and beating her. If he were to do that, he will end up in a bigger mess than what the babe is in.

pocohantas:
I am not moved by these estates claiming 24hrs power supply. Most times they would almost kill you with cost. You will have light, but to put on AC go hard you. It is better to just find a normal secure area as a young person and build you life. Don't fall for any estate and 24hrs power scam. Imagine N350 per kilowatt.

It's only become a problem of recent with high diesel cost and poor power from EKEDC/EKEDC. Just 12 months ago diesel was N650.

chopnaira:
Only if we had a credit check system. Landlords would be able to properly screen their tenants.

Not sure that would be helpful in these harsh times. Nigeria of the last 12months has been unusually ,unexpectedly hard.

Many folks in my estate defaulting on power bills now didn't do so before 2023/2024. And some of them have been there for 3 to 4 years.

When food, petrol etc have almost tripled in 12months, where is the leftover for these things.

NoToPile:
Shikena.

And some instead of some tenants to negotiate increment with abeg consider us they will be carrying shoulder high.


And some tenants have always owed even before the economy became bad, so those set will never move landlords in these times, it is those who have always been consistent you will consider if the tides turn for them.

Especially on this Lagos. Many men and women prefer to be doing guy all around Lagos,meanwhile they are not planning for rent. Going to party,feeling among, buying aso ebi etc is more important to them.

lagosrd:
Story as usual. If you're looking for the truth dig deeper, get those ladies to tell us their role and you will just be as shocked as myself

What role? From the story,nothing was consummated with the girls. It was an offer that wasn't accepted.

Even if it were accepted, what will the girls know? They have simply been given money to chop oga and chop him well. End of story.

Omihanifa:
Imagine using sex to secure judgement worth millions of dollars. I really pity this country and the kind of leaders that we have .

Happens everywhere mind you. You haven't read up on Jeffrey Epstein?

Nbote:
The annoying thing wifh all these reports is that despite all these glaring evidences and allegations, nothing will be done

The matter is in court not so

CoronaVirusPro:
Go to Philadelphia and tell us all is not well with the US too.

Every society has that part of her.

Using baseless pegs to rubbish Nigeria won’t fly! Your logic can tell also, that all is not working for the US.

There is nowhere where ALL is working!

victorDanladi:
His roads quality is always poor.
Even,mere looking at it

Exactly. Your can tell this road is poor quality. It won't last 2 rainy season.

Is the income the same? Taxi cab is a livable wage there. Not so in Nigeria.

https://punchng.com/just-in-cjn-to-receive-n5-39m-monthly-as-reps-pass-judicial-officers-salaries-bill/

We should stop this nonsense of reporting salaries separately from allowances. At the end it's what gets credited into the account in a month that we know as salary. Does anybody split their credit alert into salaries and allowances?

Zulu11zulu:
why they don't go sansiba forest or go to northern forest where they will meet bandit the coward army only have power to when they meet civilians

Go to Nairaland homepage and see the article on captured northern bandits.

Splashme:
The greedy LASG wants to start taxing poor Uber drivers per trip.
.

You call it greedy, but should people earn income and refuse to pay income taxes?

But yet I'm sure you want government to subsidize everything for you

Seunpapa65:
It's not a waste of money abeg u can tell your own governor what to use their money for
So the won't make money through tickets do you know how many fans come to watch football

So how many fans are in that stadium you posted?

Honestly, the North is a waste to Nigeria. The really don't deserve to be in the same country as the South. Majority of our backward indices comes from them.

Guilty conscience. Did Otti mention any past governor in repealing the law!?

Jealousy go kill una.

Which kind jealousy! I left banking as an Assistant Manager in 2006 to do into Oil and Gas. I doing very well for myself.

Kukutenla:
Patch patch CV

Is that really her pic or that of a Chinese sex doll?

Oh o! Baze university that just started in 2011. So clearly she attended the school when already a staff of Zenith. Very difficult to get First class when not working, talk less of while working. So she must have bought that First Class.

Why didn't she get first class from UniJos, which was clearly her proper first degree before working.

Isn't she the popular Adaora from way back that they said was dating CBN governor Sanusi (not the Emir of Kano, the previous one before Soludo) and who would do anything just to meet target and bring money in for Zenith!

Real female executives in top European companies don't have time for excessive beauty regimen, cos they are too busy to bother with such things. This one that looks like doll that spends all her time in beauty salon.
Her looks already tells you all you need to know. She looks like a competitor to Kim Kardashian and Bianca Censori and not a competitor to Funke Osibodu, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala and other serious female executives.

N907k makes no sense. N120K is more like it.

It does not make sense. Why can't they employ their youths to do care giver jobs?
So they expect a family person to abandon his/her family back home?

Care workers are often not health workers like doctors and nurses o

QuinQ:
Wrong time to be doing this. There is time for everything. People are trying to survive.
OR give proper compensation

Compensation for shanties?

toujurs:
Most of you, who even consider dangote as truely the richest man. Are all delusional, can you compare, tony elumelu intelligence with that of dangote, tony is way wiser.

We all know the tribe that own Nigeria, and how buhari kept printing money to distribute to his northerners without zero national productivity.

Dangote only excel in Monopoly, he can't compete in business.

Listen to dangote buisness interviews, listen to mike adenuga, listen to tony elumelu or herbert wigwe.

You will observe the difference between organic intelligence, and someone who claims to be the richest but doesn't lacks structural engineering of business model

And the wuru wuru Tony did with Forex with Standard Trust n ko?

CondemnBattery:

In as much as I love the philanthropist nature, I was anticipating to read about his businessess.

@Op what is his occupation?
No offense.

Hope we won't read how one of his mansion was busted by efcc and NDLEA

If you know, you know!!
