DrHighchief:It has been like that since Ibrahim babangida (IBB) USED MONEY TO CORRUPT THE STUDENT UNION SO HE CAN HAS HIS WAY IN HIS EVIL AGENDA AND CORRUPT GOVT. he gave money to the SUG so that they can act against the University and Students interest and become a "Rent-a-Crowd" for his wicked plans. That was the begining of Evil things in every sector of the Nigerian society. IBB, the evil genius, really damaged the moral fibre of this country so much and l just wish he can be given a special treatment before he leave this world. - He started the "settlement" syndrome whereby anything can be bought with money, stolen money ofc - He initiated Letter Bomb, wrt Dele Giwa - He opend people's eye to Drug smuggling (Gloria okon). - It was under him that all these tribal militant groups gained ground - He destroyed the fairest and freest elelction Nigeria ever had - He ruined Nigeria's currency (it was #3/$ when he came in and was like #97/% by the time he left) - He ruined Nigeria's economy beyond repair, took IMF loan and devalued our currency. - Killed many fine officers in the military (Ejigbo plane crash, phantom coup, e.t.c ) - e.t.c |
tpapi:Have you seen the picture of the other party (the guy) or known whether he could have died from such stab wounds she inflicted on him? Men like you are so nauseating, the way you make excuses for women who are just as guilty as any other humanbeing. I am sure if it was a man or the roles were reversed, you will quickly change your tone. Stop being a Phussy Wimp, Mr. |
tolexy123:Both sluggers were suspended, pending Panel investigation. Why is she crying wolf where there is none? I just hope she is not trying to play the "woman angle" because to carry bottle and break, not to talk of stabbing someone else, is not a woman's role. ![]() I dont even beleive that the President asked the doors to be locled so the Social Director can attack her, that is a cooked-up story and it is so obvious. Most likely, there was an arguement, she broke bottle and stabbed the Social Director who in-turn pumelled her while other shwo would have helped her has she been the victim, decide to look on because to them, she has crossed the line. Imagine this knd of person? She would stab a Judge in court, if the Judge did not acquit her client o! Another Mike Ozekhome in the making. ![]() |
okerekeikpo:Look at him properly and you will realise that it is that 'Mazi' Dilector the whole world is looking for. ![]() Even his disguise as a soldeir did not hide his person or is he not the one who was caught in the past, while doing ashawo at Ikeja when he was claiming to be fighting for Biafra. ![]() |
back2sender:You are welcome. We are all learning, it never ends. |
oyb:Nobody (most clients) are not experts on building...otherwise theywould be contractors! ![]() What one need to do is to BE PREPARED by studying/researching as much as possible, on each stage of the build. Armed with your Architect drawing, depth and size of foundation would have been specified. It is there in the details. On this thread alone, you will find not less than three posts where mix-ratio for foundation of various types (I remember one particular one by Abdulwastecx and one by Spyder that l have saved over two or three years ago). With simple knowledge of mathematics and a lot of hardwork mixed with patience, you can calculate the volume of all imputs (and using their densities, get their size in Kg, bags or tonnage. Yes, it took m some days to calculate everything but once it was done on a spreadsheet, l could easily change it when necessary, just by swapping figures and the result just spill out on 'Total line'. I think someone with a similar hands-on approach is @Egunmogaji though he used his (on my own observation), mostly with Costing of his project I did it for Truck-Loads of Granite, Stone dust, Sand, Cement, Iron Rods and it was very accurate. When the bricklayers start mixing thing for me and deviate, l just tell them: Pls dont, ....just stick to what l told you. Small time, the Engineers on other building sites around begin to call me Engineer (not knowing l am the owner! )It was so much fun to watch other aspiring house-owners around see my foundation and exclaim: Wow, l wish mine was like this . It is not something for the faint-hearted, you have tobe committed and be someone who takes pride in what you do (as against just dishing out money for others to do it for you). It takes time and energy but did l enjoy myself? You bet l did. In summary, what we have on this thread (despite all the mud) is worth more than you can get in any Single Textbook because the knowledge was spilled by experts, those who work in the field and intelligent people with experience. If you can take the time to siff through it, you will realise that there is an ANWER to EVERY QUESTION you may have on building. No, you dont need to be an expert but you will become someone close to being called a 'fake expert' if you are smart and can make good use of all the information on this thread. You just need to be focused and dedicated to what you want to acheive. If l can build a two storey building (after all drawings have been done by qualified experts (Arch, M & E Engineers, e.t.c) from scratch and it is acclaimed to be solid by COREN Engineers (friends though) and still standing without any defect till today, in a very challeneging environment, then l am qualified to be called "fake expert/Engineer". ![]() Yes, l am still 'fake' since l did not go to a formal school to acquire formal certifications in it. ![]() **** Do you know l got a job offer to erect a building, when l was almost done with mine and the Client has been coming around to watch me working on my own, not knowing l am a bloody Client like him? Because all the Artisans and people around suddenly start addressing me as "Engineer". Even the Govt "building Control" people called me Engineer, when they wanted to come and do "as usual" I simply declined because l felt l was not ready to experiment with someones building and the time it took me for mine, was no longer available. I just tear race. ***You can do it, |
olumide4christ:There are jobs that need minute detailing (as in 'fine-finish') and pains-taking attention. In such jobs, l personally will not want a 'rush-rush' Artisan that is mostly concerned with finishig as quickly as possible. I would rather he takes his time and do a perfect finish. In daily-paid job, the problem most people have (and why it does not work for them) is that they themselves have no idea what the job involves or entails and hence, cant break it down into "daily modules or chunks" that is fair to the artisan and to themselves such that each person adheres to the job schedule and time frame. I had work with a particular bricklayer on a daily basis for about three weeks. It was a finishing stage and each morning, l usually detail what he needed to do for him and paid him 4k on daily basis. Infact, l so much enjoyed his job that l do not even have to look over my shoulders or inspect what he was doing, after awhile. At times, he even goes further than what l expect (maybe l forgot something and he saw it and thought it was necessary, to make his work complete). ***Most Artisans are not exactly like him and l have met tens of crazy ones, along the line, so he could just be an exception**** ![]() |
GoodFaith:Very wise words of advice. ![]() Apert from cost-issues, you want to be sure that your foundation, which you cant replace or repeat, is up to standard and as specified in your plan/drawings. |
back2sender:Na lie, that is not what you have been asking for! ![]() Each flat has to have a separate DBox Sir. What is the essence of having Separate Meters, if you still have to tie them together with a single DBox? it is not even possible sef I am sure you did not mean the situation because the whole idea of a Dbox is to ISOLATE a fault in each flat's wiring such that if say for example, a kettle is 'bridged inside' and is causing a fault in the wiring system, the breaker inside the Dbox, that is responsible for that Ring/segment/circuit where the Kettle is on, will isolate and TRIP-OFF while other ciruits are still functional. So, inside a DB, you have many small Breakers that can trip-off and be reset when the fault is corrected. The DB has no further use appart from this important one. Therefore, each flat will require one DBox (standard procedure). Each DBox is usually going to be inside each flat so they can correct/reset the breakers, when a fault occurs. They are not very expensive but do a very improtant job. Cost depends on number of breakers (4, 8, 12, 16, e.t.c). See my first post and see if you can follow the sequence. I am sure that what you are asking for in somewhere inside that post |
back2sender:Most likely you are referring to a Busbar. Its cost will depend on the Amperage. Do a search on Jumia or Jiiji.com and have a good idea or see for yourself. Let me give a general scenario and see if you can relate with it: 1.) Usually, what you get is from the PHCN Pole is 4wires for a 3phase connection, R,Y,B and Neutral N, to the Busbar, where each Meter will be fed with 3units of very short Cables (as short as 3ft or even less, depending on where you position each meter) that run to each 3phase meter. 2.) From each 3-phase Meter, three cables will run into your 4-pole breakers (disadvantage of a 3-phase wiring, in terms of cost; when you could have used 2 o3 3pole breakers that are way much cheaper!), all using a common Neutral (making 4wires). 3.) From the Breakers, 2 wires (or three at most), "can" run to your DB straight-away, to power each flat Or if you want each flat to be able to take advantage of the three phase, you cant install "ohase-changers/selelctors in-between the Breakers and the DB so that if they take light on one phase, they can simply swith to another phase that has light (advantage of 3-phase meter) but it will cost you more money, in terms of additonal equipment as above, and wires. Now, you can as well wire the Meters like they are Single phase by not connecting all the phases and not installing phase-changers. You win some, you lose some. I hope this clarifies your question? |
Ngene44:Yeah, l am sure that in your warped, IPOB, i-before-others, cocoon-mentality, l should also be arrested for saying Boko haram is a terrorist organisation! WHY is it that once someone does not tow the IPOB narration, they become an 'enemy'? Where did l use the word "jihadist" in my post, if not a figment of your imagination? I have shown you "criterion" to classify any organisation as terrorist or otherwise and have applied same to the three organisatiosn you referenced. Why dont you show me yours or disprove mine, instead of all these "sentimental and emotional" outburst that you IPOBs are noted for? ![]() |
Jones4190:They just cant see the "Big Picture"! Too biased and living their self-made, self-inflicted cocoon of delusion. They should keep boasting and threatening others, when the hammers comes down on them, they will once again, revert to crying genocide! ![]() |
Ngene44:I have been hoping someone will ask this question, not because they don tknow the difference but because they will pretend not ot know and act the usual "victim". Three groups in all and l am going to use the SAME CRITERIA to judge ALL of them Boko haram: Now, no one, not even Boko haram itself, the Nigerian govt or IPOB, will say Boko haram is not a terrorist group. 1.) Thay have put ordinary citizens in fear, threatened ordinary citizens and Govt, inlcuding the military. 2.) They have killed innocent citizens, killed security Agents and threatened to take territory belonging to Nigeria, a soveriegn state. 3.) They have lobbied and incited hatred, using HATE SPEECHES, between tribes/religion and thretened to levy war on the Nigerian State All the above is irrespective of WHY they did all those heinous crimes. That is why the Govt has been battling them with all available resources and even supoort from other nations. That is settled, they are a terrorist group. Herdsmen: 1.) Have they as well threatened and put ordinary citizens in FEAR? YES - Have they threatened Govt Agents, inlcuding the military? NO (They have so far avoided a confrontation with the military by running away and disappearing into the busg, after each heinous act!) This does not excuse their murderous act 2.) Have they killed innocent Nigerian citizens? YES - Have they killed Security Agents and threatened to take territory belonging to the Nigerian State? NO 3.) Have they lobbied and incited HATRED, using Hate Speeches between tribes and religion? NO (they have not instigated say a Muslim group against a Christian group and have killed both Christians (East and South West of Nigeria) and Muslims (benue and Middle belt areas) indiscriminately. Again, this does not excuse their murderous acts. -Have they levied WAR or threatened to do so, on the Nigerian state? NO Even at that, they are still a criminal gang...... but not yet a terrorist group IPOB: 1.) Have they as well threatened and put ordinary citizens in FEAR? YES - Have they threatened Govt Agents, inlcuding the military? YES Stoped and prevented lawful security Agents from carrying out the duties by blocking the free movement in Abia state, a Nigerian territory 2.) Have they killed innocent Nigerian citizens? YES - Have they killed Security Agents and threatened to take territory belonging to the Nigerian State? YES Burned down the Ariaria Police station, snatched Rifles from Servicemen, killed Security Agents and other innocent citizens (Rivers State), e.t.c 3.) Have they lobbied and incited HATRED, using Hate Speeches between tribes and religion? YES (they have incited hatred between Igbos against other Nigerians (for example, when Nnamdi kanu says any Igbo going to a Yoruba church should be killed and that any Yoruba pastor in the East should be killed... -Have they levied WAR or threatened to do so, on the Nigerian state? YES Again, IPOB has solicited for Money from diaspora and locally, to buy arms to engage in WAR against the Nigerian state. IPOB has threatened to BURN the Nigerian state and its inhabitants So, if we tabulate all the above (irrespective of whether anyone wants to "Play Ostrich" as to what Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB's actions and utterances have been), we are left in no doubt that Nnamdi kanu and his IPOB group are far worse that Herdsmen and are on the same level if not worse, than Boko Haram. Labelling them as such, proscribing them and prosecuting them as such is just logical. Emotions and sentiments have no place in such decision-making. |
Episteme2:You Piglets are clowns! As of yesterday, the Kurds in iraq "organised by themselves" a peaceful Referendum, TESTING whether they want o go it alone or not. They did not hinge or cry that it is the Iraqui Govt that MUST organise it for them. Nobody is denying you anything, except your GREED and COWARDICE! If you think Referendum will solve your problems, by all means, organise it within your enclave, let your NASS members resign and come home. Let your Governors reject Federal Allocation. Let yur children leave other parts of Nigeria and relocate back to your Biafra. But as greedy lots, you want to eat your cake and still have it. ![]() Even when Arewa Yoots assisted you to move faster, you were all over the place shouting you wont leave any part of Nigeria ![]() CONFUSED and DELUDED CLOWNS! |
What's her name sef? if l remember, maybe l will remember to say something nice. i am sure there must be something nice to say. Just remind me of he rname again, please. Just the last one only. |
Sheege banza!

ipobarecriminals:Relax, he will be the guest of honor on that day, praising Buhari to high heavens and become unvieled as the official spokesperson of Buhari in Abia state. ![]() Just dey watch. When Army format the Albino's brain, he must sing National Anthem now |
msylva2147:Infact, l ahev never seen people who can change their voice so quickly! ![]() Next, he will change his name ot Gwarzo-chukwu-Muhammed ![]() |
greatiyk4u:That sort of person will be the type that will be crying blood, when he is finally picked-up by state security. They still think that anyone is completely anonymous, in this day oif modern technology. ![]() |
Chinachriss: The State Publicity Secretary of the party, Comrade Benedict Godson told newsmen on Monday in Umuahia, the state capital after the inauguration of the party’s Contact, Mobilization/Rally Committee that the event would hold in the state capital in October. Did you go through the list of all those "who-is-who" in Abia, that are dying to join the rulling party? You think it is few IPOB miscreants that determine the fate of a Mega-State like Abia? IPOB is dead and buried. It is history. Period. You can either join the ruling party (which all those smart guys are doing) and get the benefit of ebing "among"...... or you can keep wallowing in animosity and lose-out completely. A smart fly knows not to follow the dead-bodu enter the grave. ![]() |
VargasVee:I am sure Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB will not PERMIT THIS TO HAPPEN. Never! Just imagine! In Abia state of all places, where Python is dancing in broad-day light! Dilector, where are you? COme and here this o. ![]() BSS, hope you guys are on stand-by? IPOB 2million-man strong, hope everyone os prepared for a last stand? ****Why is everyone quiet like no one is around?**** ![]() IPOB-Kweenu! Kweenu!! Dont be afraid, Buhari is our friend and father, he wont throw us under the Bus. Just behave yourself, dont mouth-off that elelction will not hold, watch your mouth and dont do gra-gra..... and all will be well in Abia State.

1nigeriamyfoot:Your one-liner shows you are one of those YOOTS clapping and laughing while a Governor plays table tennis or chops Ponmo. Suegbe, na Pako. ![]() IPOB Piglet. ![]() |
Joseunlimited:Your ignorance is simply endearing! ![]() Look at the Walls of that building (cream color). Can you not see the reflection of the "day-time' sun on it. Look at the building itself, can you not see poverty written all over it? Look at those young guys laughing their lives away in daytime, can they not be productive (selling, schooling, farming or just doing something productive and economical?) What do you think happens to able-bodied men, if they spend their "day-time" loitering around and idling-away while "enjoying an amiable Governor"? Where is the hustle to survive, when Fayose finally leaves them for Dubai, with his babe and their Treasury completely looted dry? ![]() If you need entertainment, by all means, employ a CLOWN. if you want to learn or enjoy table tennis, by all means, please employ a TENNIS COACH If it is how to eat you want to learn, employ a Glutton to show you howX But if what you want is development, progress, improved infrastructure, prosperity and a bright future, please employ a Governor like Fashola who doesnot spend all his time eating at roadside or playingtable tennis but focuses on Gioverning like a technocrat, motivating the populace to be enterpeneural, make more money and by so doing , generate more IGR for the Govt to further develop the state. This sort of "POPULISM" that Fayose has spent the last eight years doing, has not brought any PROSPERITY to Ekiti State and its inhabitants. He is a Governor for God's sake, ......not Tennis Coach or a Clown or even a Thug! |
Peterosky:You know, some people are called SIMPLETONS because they cant reason, think, infer or project beyond the SIMPLE THINGS OF LIFE (Eat, Drink, Play, Phuck and Sleep ).A State Governor is not supposed to be a simpleton. He carries on his shoulder, the development, aspirations and progress of millions of indigenes. If you think being aState Governor is about eating roasted plantain on the roadside, playing roadside table tennis, plating woman's heair on the roadside, eating Ponmo or beans on the roadside, then you are a simpleton! Because all the above cannot transform the economy of his state from a rural one, to a modern, prosperous one!. It cannot generate IGR needed for further development!!. It cannot attract investment to a State!!! Today, Kano state Governor signed a deal with the Chinese, to install one of the largest Textile Plant in Africa, to provide jobs, IGR and growth for his people. That is a Giovernor, already thinking about when and if allocation from Abuja will stop or price of Crude oil will crash. Fashola did not spend all day eating roasted plantain on the roadside, for Lagos to be what it is. Go to Ogun state and see what they are doing, the transformation of the capital's infratsructure and you will understand that a Governor is different from a Ward Counsellor! Right now, Ekiti state ranks amongst the poorest among all States of the federation and definitely the poorest amongst South West States, even poorer than poor Osun state!. Just imagine, for a state that boasts of the highest number of highly educated people! Fayose has taken Ekiti state back to what we call a 'Hobesian State'. All those Ediots watching and laughing while their Governor wastes-away their life, are supposed to be at work, trading or farming but just see them shinning their teeth on poverty! SIMPLETONS, all of you and your Governor Fayose! The world has since moved-on. |
Celcius: These Fayose is a Devil in human clothing! He imposed School fees on their primary school students in Govt Public schools...yet he is here playing table tennis with them, and they are all smiling like Ediots! Being a State Governor is way above his cerebral capacity. he should have been a local Ward Chairman. |
musa7m:Just dey watch! Those Piglets never disappoint me. ![]() |

Where is that hunchback lunatic
