Tell your wife what transpired and tell her the sister need move out of your house. She will not cease until you succumb and once you do, you are totally finished.

Go to the market, choose any size and quality of tiles you like and can afford, buy the needed quantity.
Then call the tiler ( the one that you have seen and liked their previous work) and negotiate amount for labor only.
I am sure buying cement and soft sand in Owerri won’t be much of a problem.
You can start with one trip of sand and 20bags of cement.

Let me help you with some figures

1 trip of sand = 60k
20 bags of cement @10k = 200k
Labor 1500 per sqm x 79 = 118500
Subtotal = #378500.

Now you see that the #632000 they quoted for you can only give you #253500 for tiles.

The question now is, what type of tiles can this amount get to 79 sqm?

What you are looking at is 253500 divided by 79 = #3208 ( per sqm of tiles)
To be honest with you, no 60x60 tile sales for this amount even 30 x 60 Nigeria tiles is around 5-6k .
In all of these, transportation of materials could gulp another 40-50 k.

You talk like you're being paid by MTN. How long will you guys keep defending indiscriminate, arbitrary tariff increments all in a bid to "ridicule" the government? 100% increment? Haba. That's besides all the hidden charges that makes a 1min airtime finish in 40 seconds. If I remember correctly this was how you people kept defending DStv those days until their greed spiraled out of control and everyone started looking for alternatives.

Edygrin:
Do these people care at all?
These companies are busy paying their directors hundreds of millions of Naira annually but are always in a rush to increase tariffs, not even by 10 or 20% but by 100%, forgetting what Nigerians are going through right now.

If they're no more interested in the Nigerian market they should sell up instead of passing their frustration to Nigerians who are going through worst daily.

What a load of utter rubbish.

They don’t build infrastructure you complain.

They build, you complain.

Nonsense.

Nah this thing dey always surprise and pain me about Nigerian youth.

If the govt didn't do we cry and complain, it they do we still shout and complain.

The person you quoted is so myopic and only think about today.

For me, they are doing the right thing with building infrastructure that will last for the future.

So I have a gf that told me about my breathe not being so good and that I should work on it…

Well, I took it well and will see a dentist to figure what is the cause. Until I got home and started recalling some actions that kinda hurt me a bit…. And I started putting 1+1 together..

Like avoiding me sometimes when we sit, the one that got to me was a day before when she stylishly sat and sniffed my cloth… it was after our conversation that it got to me when I recalled it cause I was thinking (so what do you mean)…

Cause I dress cool and all that… I guess she was tryna confirm that too (cause we are in long distance relationship and recently met). Felt somehow not gonna lie and I think I want to break up nicely with her…. Don’t think I can face her again.

Well as for the breathe part, a bit surprised but like I said I will visit a dentist.

How is it her loss when you'll also be losing your child? Because chances are she'll never allow you to see that child ever again.

When the child reaches a certain age and start asking questions, she might tell him or her how you rejected him or her and went to the extent of conducting a DNA... The child will then hate you.

I posted a previous topic about my divorce with my wife and i got alot of advice on this platform which really encouraged & have me strength.
I'm really grateful for the nairaland community. The only issue i'm still battling with right now is how to move on, i'm trying everyday to forget the past, but the more i try, the more it's becoming fresh in my heart and the pains too. I won't lie to you it's difficult. Sincerely sometimes i cry and the thoughts of ending my life comes and goes. I don't drink, I don't smoke, neither do i womannize and worst of all i don't have much friends cos I'm more of an introvert.
A snippet of the entire problem is that most times we have an issue and she leaves the house, i've always been the one going to speak to her mum, plead and bring them back home, that's why whenever there's problem and she goes back to her mom's place, nobody from her family would contact me to even hear my side because I've become like a fool to them cos they know i'll still come. This last one that she left, we just had a little issue and she packed a her things and left. So many people not to go to her family house and beg this time around since i didn't send them packing. I swear guys, i've forgiven and tolerated what 90% of men won't forgive nor tolerate from her.

Please guys help a brother with more advice, how do i move on?

SmartPolician:
Who still makes international voice calls when you have apps that allow you make such calls? I hope MTN has sorted out its alternative before the disconnection to avoid service disruptions.

oz4real83:
This was the same excuse MTN was giving that made them put high purchase prices on their lines years ago, other companies came that crashed prices before MTN decided to crash theirs, despite their previous reasons for putting extortionate prices on sim cards. The truth is that these companies were making almost free money before, bad govt policies are now making them to work for their money by incurring high operational costs

oz4real83:
Despite the high level of inflation, no telecom operator is declaring end of year losses, all of them are still declaring extra high profit margins, this shows that this increase is not justified, just another way to instill more sufferings on Nigerians
