The making of solid metal

Donoppy:
Goodmorning house... so some days ago some people came to my site where construction is ongoing and said they came from Lagos state government building control agency and that we didn’t get a permit before starting the construction from the agency and now are asking for us to pay them a sum of #200000 , please I need your help here on what to do because this morning is too much and from what they said it isn’t even backed up by any receipt.
And the worst part is that the engineer didn’t even mention anything of such to me at the beginning of the construction , please what should I do ?

Some so called 'engineers' are actually quacks.

Let me say this. You are not a lawyer just because you went to Unilag or OAU to study law. You must be called to Bar before being called a Lawyer. That is what is happening with the speaker of the LAHA. You are not an engineer because you graduated with HND or Bsc in any engineering related field, until you become a COREN certified. Anyone that studies Estate Management in the Higher institution is not an Estate Surveyor and Valuer, but a graduate of Estate Management. To become an Estate Surveyor and Valuer, you must be certified by RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors UK) or By ESVARBON (Estate Surveyors and Valuers Registration Board of Nigeria)

You need to ask your engineer for his COREN certificate, otherwise he's just a graduate and not a professional.

Yes, you need approval before you can carryout any development in Lagos State, as dictated by the Urban and Regional Development Planning Law 2010.
For you to pull down a building, you must get approval. For you to construct, you need approval.

Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA) is an enforcement agency under the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development of Lagos State. They are responsible for sealing up illegal development. Your development is illegal.

Illegal Development is described as any development without requisite approval from the MPPUD Lagos State.

But LABSCA does not have any right to demand such, unless the site is sealed and you're told to pay unsealing fee to LASG, which is N250,000. Not as bribe, but to be receipted.

I don't know if the barber no sabi him work or the clipper no sharp...

Your dictionary gave u four colligative definitions and u are defending with Just one? So the other 3 meanings will be abandoned on technicality or what?..


Don't defend mediocrity in a bid to support a favorite.

Unemployment is not really our main challenge in Nigeria. It's unemployability of so called graduates.

Since 2018 that I started recruiting some graduates to work as trainees in my office, I feel sorry for Nigeria's education system.

Most kids born shortly before OBJ's first term till middle of his 2nd term who are now either teenagers or in their early twenties are nothing to write home about in terms of character and intelligence quotient

I just called Ethiopian Airlines after seeing a post from someone saying they are organizing evacuation flights to US on 13th and 21st August. Ethiopian confirmed it is true and said that anyone with UK visa can join too however the price is prohibitive- N654,000 for economy.

Kilode?

The FG needs to open international air space soon, this exploitation needs to end

Hello guys

For those whose visas will expire by September ending, 2020 what will happen if the Nigerian government is yet to open internal air space for travel before then?

Do reapply or they may likely extend visa validity till the end of the year?

Hello my good people of nairaland,
I want to get approval for my building permit approval in Lagos and I was told I need tax clearance but I don’t have it. Please any alternative in getting the approval without tax clearance.

I was told to pay ₦750,000 as well.

The benchmark for development permit on the LIRS template is ₦750k for approval.

A client was billed ₦5,000,000 as tax for a construction in VI.

They use the value of land in the location as a measurement yardstick.

Even if you pay your P.A.Y.E to LIRS annually, you'll still be asked to pay property tax to get approval. They tell you P.A.Y.E is different.

Even if the property is in Epe and you bought the land for ₦300,000 when you want approval, LIRS would still charge ₦750k.

A lot of people stopped the process at the tax level and don't follow up.

LASG is using this to discourage potential developers.

They gave most Agencies and Ministries target, which is why they're desperate and bill Nigerians any how

EgunMogaji2:
I don’t have a truck scale at my site but I pay N15K per 10 tons. Omi Adio Ibadan. Bought 40 tons yesterday.

Very good choice.

This woman is as good as VP Osinbajo.
She's far far better than Mike Pence.

If they should have a debate, Mike Pence will gas out easily

Good evening all.

What's the current price of actual 20Tons plaster sand?

I need 3*20tons but from someone that would guarantee 20tons to be exact and also not sell sharp sand in place of plaster sand.

But Ozo's thighs are made for shorts though.
He brings a classy vibe to it.

Some men when they wear shorts look like Biafran deserters , after the Nigerian civil war.

Thought you're a Biafran, why the shade?

Or you are a Niger Deltan?
