@Erico2k2, you are suppose to be the class monitor here but na you come make noise pass now

Who go write your own name down now?

Doubting is allowed in Christianity. Thomas, Jesus disciples was a doubter. He made heaven.

Faith is overrated. You don't need bucket load of faith. Small faith is OK. Just like a mustard seed.

You no get faith, you no get faith is just a 'get of jail statement' by gods of men. I mean pastors

@Mrs lastpage. I talk say this whole story get as e be.

But then Mrs lastpage why did you have to wholly assume the identity of this your supposedly school daughter even to the extent of saying you had a very rough childhood? Like hawking on the street since the age of 10 years and all that. Was that necessary?

I don't understand why two very intelligent husband/wife will chose to use one profile on nairaland or is seun now selling profile creation too? I thought it's free.

You have really messed up your 'husband' reputation here o. I hope we will come to know the whole truth one day but for now the doubt still prevail.

This is the stuff for Nollywood o. All this change of names upandan.

I still refuse to belief that lastpage was a woman and then became a man. For what purpose? Did she not know that she would be found out?

I think she is too intelligent to fall for this kind thing o. My opinoin o.

Has nobody done any business with the 'real' LastPage to disprove all of these accusations?

Pass me more crayons abeg.

Adonbilivit

All these revelations pass the one for Bible o
Waoh!!

I no belief. It's a lie joor

NL1960:
Hajji, do not lock the thread. Iam reading some good and great exposures here that i never knew was happening in this property section. Sometimes, it is good to quarrel as it brings out information you never thought of.

Your head dey there! Why should this thread be locked? Why??

These are good information that we are getting mehn!!. At least Brabus can be rest assured that all these people screaming fraudster! fraudster!! Can also be fraudulent when it suits them.

How can the masquerade man open a thread to destroy Brabus just because of small criticism of his build only to ask the same fraudster for construction information using a different handle. Shame!!!!

I can't see egungun show his face here again.

Are we sure AZUH is not an alternate handle for one of these guys too?

Abeg, no lock this thread o o

.....

ypeace:
Keep calm and reread my post...... we are on the same page.

Una say Muslim women don't change their names after marriage. Is Babangida, Abacha and even Buhari not Muslims? If I remember very well, their wives use their surnames and not the maiden names

If Jesus Christ should come back as an Igbo man, 99.99% of Yorubas will go to hell fire because they will never believe in him including those gods of men

4nobody4every1:
Can you be more civil in your choice of words?. l suggested the thread should be cleaned up off all insults, lock it for the time been if possible to calm all the warring parties down, sanction those who are not ready to be civil if possible, mind your choice / use of words, nobody dey craze, respect is reciprocal, l have called for truce / peace ever since they all started insulting each other, you can scroll back if you care to read where l advised all the parties involved to sheath there sword and if the only way to restore peace temporarily is to lock the thread or ban some members so be it

So sorry for my choice of word. I will change it now. I was just having fun that's all

I'm really enjoying this thread o. Who is that asking that this thread be closed? You no dey like a little bit of fun? that is just what e-fights are, entertainment.

Agarawu is the Nairaland version of Hugh Hefner. See babes

Mods, pls unban agarawu o.

3strikes!!!!

I sure say this is another rumour. If not I will borrow a line from AZUH and run out unclad

Nobody get monolopy of insults and yabis. I just hope agbá will learn to behave like agbá while ómodè go learn to respect themselves.

@hajj Mufutau, RESPECT sir.

It does not matter where you live so long as you are happy. Dangote lives in Nigeria wey all of us dey run comot from. Just make the best of the opportunities as they present themselves.

As long as you are not cheating and stealing it's OK.

My own humble contribution.

bplenty:
The size of the house is 15 by 13 which is 195 sqm sir @demainman1 I hope that helps. Cheers

Thank you so much. It sure helps.

bplenty:
@demainman1

The pop job was for 500k sir. This was after bargaining to beat down quotations that I had received from @kolashangone. Thanks again. I appreciate.

Thank you @bplenty. If you don't mind, what is the total area covered please?

I am planing to pop an area of 100sqm

@bplenty, if I ask you the cost for the pop ceiling now you will say ask Kola.

Can either of you give the rough cost including workmanship pls.

By the way, nice job.

I can see Nigeria becoming the next Iraq.

freecocoa:
Lol @ fetching water for 30 days.

OP's story is actually making me laugh because it reminds me of the nonsense nollywood like drama my cousin's wife puts up.

Even if there's no money, she has no place cutting into the conversation like that, when the request never even land, Shior.

E be like say the liquor still dey shack you
She said days of thirst as in needing water. Not 30 days o.

Drink more water make your eyes clear

whirlwind7:
I understand where you are coming from, bro.

Do you know why till this day, a nationwide revolution has not begun? It is simply because Nigeria is not a united country. We are not one, and we have never been one. I don't see it happening, EVER.
Once a section of the country feels they are being shortchanged, all the government needs to do is appoint someone from that region into a certain position, and what happens next is, the people will say, "well, one of us has been appointed. Let's wait and see how things go. Maybe the government has remembered us afterall"
This happens consistently. It all boils down to tribalism along with it's varying interests. Now that we feel that the FG is appointing mostly Northerners, majority of the south complains. Once a prominent position is given to, say, someone from the SS, that region keeps quiet a bit. AS IF SUCH AN APPOINTMENT EVEN MEANS ANYTHING TO THE COMMON MAN IN THAT REGION!

It's not totally an issue of cowardice. No Igbo man will rise up in protest over a Yoruba village that gets ransacked by Fulani herdsmen. No Yoruba politician will lose sleep if Boko Haram suddenly wipes off an entire LGA in Damaturu. No Hausa man will lose his appetite if a sudden epidemic wipes off half the population of a rural community in the Niger Delta.

It's the same reason why, when a politician is being investigated for corruption, his kinsmen will rise up in protest, and call it witch hunting
It's also the reason why, every politician in power is like "I need to loot as much as I can lay my hands on right now". Knowing that it is a temporary position, without much accountability.

Bottom line, no tribe or groups of tribe is ready to lose his life over a country that most of us feel no allegiance or loyalty to. Will you, for instance, accept to lead a ragtag mob that decides to march to Aso Rock tomorrow morning? of course, you'd first ask yourself if you are the most affected from the hardship ravaging the country.
The very first factor that ensures a successful revolution is UNITY. Once everyone is unified in their political conviction and decide on achieving the same goal, then a revolution might just be looming. Go read up the history of countries that had a successful revolution. A united front was the common and overwhelming factor. As it is now, in Nigeria, it is every man for himself.

This is the best I have read on nairaland

A little comic relief. I sure say Egunmogaji will be able to identify with this being the baalé of Ibadan.

CBN 'floated' naira and now naira 'sank' again

Just leave naira to dey 'swim' joor!

Thanks for the clarification. I have always wrongly assumed that you did everything from substructure to roofing, plumbing, electrical, tiling etc yourself whenever you say that you have built houses through DIY in the States.

EgunMogaji:
I was the GC but did work on things that I had the time and inclination for, such as tiling, audio/video wiring, etc

My county code required a licensed plumber and electrician to tie into the public utilities do that as an example was farmed out. I hire professionals for any phase of work that was economical to farm out. For example I'm not going to pour a slab when there are outfits that specialize just on that.

I'm using the same practice that works for me in Nigeria except I'm more hands off in a physical sense. As stated before, Nigeria is nothing but a vacation/retirement destination for me so I'll rather be more hands off but still looking at the big picture.

Here's YT video of a couple building their house in Australia.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJPmM0T789M

The same is repeated all over the world.

I suspect that cheap labor has spoilt the average Nigerian.

@Egunmogaji, when you said you diy those houses in Texas, pls can you explain exactly how you did this?

E.g
1. Did you do the foundation yourself? Do the forming yourself, did roofing, electrical, mechanical, plastering, e.t.c all by yourself?

OR

2. Did you get professionals in each of the areas I have listed to do the work while you project manage them as a general contractor?

Today CBN floated the naira, tomorrow they will 'swim' it

The above pictured project na wa o. How can somebody build inside river? Is it due to too much money in the client's pocket or what?

This is the thread azuh lifted his new house from

Driver Abu is being
interrogated after an accident …
Policeman: So, Abu how did you end up killing 49 people?
Abu: I was driving @80km/h when I suddenly saw 2 men
crossing the road and on the other side, a wedding was taking place. I hit the brakes but they failed, so I had to make a choice:
Either I hit the 2 men or run into the wedding party.
Policeman: Hit the 2 men of course!
Abu: exactly! We think alike, but after hitting one of them, the other man escaped into the wedding party, so I went after him.. .

Happy Sunday ooo

mufutau55:
If I come with EgunMogaji and FastShipping... it may reach 40 peoples, otherwise... may be like 10 ppl.

@ Hajji Mufutau55,

Here's one block and brick production company set up by a diasporan in UK (Anthony Somefun) and they're one of the leading block maker in Lagos today.

They do everything and any specs of block and bricks to international standard.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBqKHdR3TTE

This is what we expect from Diasporans. So many of this Big Bros are back home doing stuffs and it's yielding positive results.

Thanks for this info. Ignorance indeed is a disease. I for fit swear say nothing like this is in Nigeria. Pesin don sonù for abroad I swear

While big boys are running things back home, others will be complaining that it can't be done.

I had this same mindset then, I used to belief that once you land Naija kidnappers go just pick you

My people, everything dey Naija, na owó be the kókó.
