PropertiesRe: Nigerians To Own Houses For N1.5m Soon - Developers by DisGuy: 1:28am On Jun 25, 2011
As beautiful and expensive that house in the middle looks, I'm guessing it doesnt have any garden or outdoor play area for the kids angry

When you watch Nollywood, you see rich man squeezing out of their cars- the whole space has been used up!!

and whats with the new craze columns or pillars undecided

Most houses look like they've been copied from somewhere and similar to each other like theyve been using the same architects

Some big girl's would not like the ideas of sharing their kitchen with others.So i think having separate kitchens are Ok.
these big girls will be cooking with kerosene and stoves, smoke/fumes everywhere, better to have a cooking gas with dinning table, they are mostly in their first year anyway. If big girls can pay £85/week and share kitchen a TV room i dont know the kinda big gals we have in naija o especially outside lagos/phc
how much are these big girls paying? are you targeting Abuja or Lagos institutions?

Exactly what i am talking about. For example, I started out working in the oil industry in Nigeria before venturing into my own business. Today, i can proudly tell you my businesses span oil and gas, dredging and maritime and real estate. I am presently looking at agriculture as the next cash cow for me. All these happened within the last 10 years. The problem with most nairalanders is that they are too afraid of the unknown and they are scare mongers. If the OP has what it takes, then Nigeria will be profitable for him considering his experience. But don't expect an easy landing.
Yea Nigeria is full of business opportunities, especially as a worker but it also helps if you are in the system from the get go as you wont have to waste time adapting or trusting new partners or learning how officials work
TravelRe: Is The Uk Worth Staying In Anymore Or Should One Consider Moving Back To Nigeria by DisGuy(mod): 4:25pm On Jun 24, 2011
One thing we should remember is that as Nigeria develops things will also become more expensive, tax will become compulsory and unavoidable, price of electricity will increase, MOT will become unavoidable etc etc so this habit of complaining about paying for this or that whilst enjoying the benefits should go out of teh window!
PropertiesRe: Building A Student Hostel : Profitability And Challenges by DisGuy: 3:35pm On Jun 24, 2011
reflector, have you ever seen a nigerian hostel?

The design is good but i was wondering why not have one kitchen/lounge for 5 rooms- where they keep the hoover, cupboards, dinning table

I think having 5 different kitchen is risky and takes up too much space. Ensuite rooms with reading table and cupboards should be decent

CareerRe: Finishing With A Degree In Sociology: What Are My Options? by DisGuy: 2:57pm On Jun 24, 2011
350k a month? Even some engineers don't earn that

I think if you have experience and perhaps target International NGO unicef, UNESCo etc You might get something comfortable
If you are looking to study something else after your degree Human Resource Management, Journalism etc would be good

What do sociologist do anyway apart from commenting on social issues on reality Tv? jokes
PoliticsRe: Where Are Aregbesola’s Commissioners? by DisGuy: 1:41pm On Jun 24, 2011
[quote author=ekt_bear link=topic=697952.msg8579674#msg8579674 date=1308889599]I still think that this is a bad idea. But is there any good argument for not appointing commissioners (aside from the political stuff that was mentioned in the article)? Perhaps it is cheaper for him to informally hire guys to advise him who are commissioners in everything but name?

I don't get it. Maybe there is some hidden advantage most of us have not seen.[/quote]Same here, I think it's cheaper- Just get the Local Government Chairperson to regulate the schools, monitor hospitals (they already have managers),
and take care of environmental issues within their domain, Local Government chairmen have been complaining of being left out so perhaps states complaining about the 18,000 minimum wage should look into using Chairman as commissioners within their domain

Yes but he is not being 'respected', can you imagine they called him up just to play 2 games during the championship in South Africa, after releasing him to his club in Norway they wanted him to fly back after a crucial match all the way to SA

I don't think they will do that to any other player

BusinessRe: Govt Set To Launch Nigeriasat-2 Next Year by DisGuy: 12:00am On Jun 24, 2011
two years late,   how much are we getting from this thing anyway?

Nigeria may very well become a leading space nation in Africa soon, as the Federal Government Thursday said the launch of the 32 million-pound satellites, NigeriaSat-2 and NigeriaSat –X, is due for July 7, 2011 in Yasny, Russia.

Seidu Mohammed, director general of the National Space research and Development Agency (NARSDA), disclosed this in Abuja at a press conference to announce the launch of the nation’s third and fourth satellites code NigeriaSat-2 and NigeriaSat-X.

The DG also revealed that the two spacecrafts- NigeriaSat-2 and NigeriaSat –X and their launch vehicles scheduled for Thursday July 7 have been adequately insured at 18 percent of the total cost in line with the global practice.

Mohammed explained that the Nigeriasat-2 is a high-resolution satellite with a 2.5m GSD in the phanchromatic channel, an improvement on NigeriSat-1 which had a resolution of 32m.

PoliticsRe: EFCC Acting On Debtors: What About Wonder Bank Victims? by DisGuy: 9:53pm On Jun 23, 2011
Nospecto would ordinarily have gone to any of our banks to get funds for their business, but it decided to get the funds directly from the public, they invest this money in legitimate business, make profit and share it amongst their investors. So what happens, a lot of people started moving their funds from the banks and giving it to Nospecto, because of the better returns.
Yes. Nospecto has petrol stations in Borno, i have seen their trucks from NNPC depot at Akwa grin

I think this is a good time African entrepreneurs or government even can buy up Greek companies on the cheap, dunno if they have a refinery there we can buy it up 100%. Dangote should be sifting through their cement industries esp those not in govt hand

Good proportion of African students cant pay the full fees or would require a part time job to sustain them through the duration of their studies and another percentage would want to stay on after studying-they will need salary

CareerRe: Abj Law School Dress Code by DisGuy: 2:01pm On Jun 23, 2011
i dont know why but any time i hear this word 'law school' it sounds like some sacred place, are they like universities where law students do their masters degree or where the practical aspect of Law is learnt?

are lecture halls in 'Law schools' constructed like a court room?

I know someone that went to Nigeria for law school and most students in the UK don't talk about law schools are they called something else?
or perhaps to practise in a country you have to attend the law school(or equivalent) of that country?
