EgunMogaji: 1) Yes, sold locally. Dominionng, Sir any thoughts?
2) In my opinion yes. I did deck my safe room.
3) The kitchen decking will work perfectly but I don't think something that elaborate is necessary if you have fire extinguisher and alarms.
I take fire prevention and avoidance seriously.
No gas canister in the kitchen, install water spout on top of the cooker, etc are all things I'm doing. Ok seen and yes no Gas canister. |

EgunMogaji: We yanks call it gypsum board or drywall here not sure what yah all call it out there 
Throw "fire resistant drywall" into Google for a looksee.
I also intend that have commercial grade fire hoses on the outside and fire extinguisher on the inside.
Remember we discussed my linked WiFi fire and carbon detectors? 
It'll be bad if my "refugee asylum" went up in flames � Ok I have seen it, 1 are they sold locally? 2 is it cost effective? 3 since we talking fire prevention across the whole house do you recon this is cheaper than the kitchen decking? or just preference? me Im thinking of the cheapest practical way though cos fire nor fit burn decked ceiling though. |

EgunMogaji: I didn't deck my kitchen.
I consider it a waste of resources in light of lighter fighter retardant materials in the market which are available in Nigeria.
Brabus and I discussed it in the past.
One has to follow the path that's most comfortable for one, it's only money and we can't take it with us  True, one cannot be too careful, what kind of fire retardant ceiling material have you got in mind?cos the ceiling is where the problem lies, fire engulf ceiling burns unto wood, the spread to other part of the house.for the door its cool. |

Acmetek: thanks so much. i will do as you suggested. All bmw are good and though car however there a very few or no fake parts so parts are expensive, but routine maintenance should save you the headache but by al means do a VIN check on the car B4 you buy, there might be hidden stuff you do not know about the car.Watch out for oi leaks, they are typical of BMWs. |

44chux: We learn everyday. I encourage you to continually take fire and general safety seriously.
"It's unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you loose a little - that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes loose everything because the thing you bought is incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done!
If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run. And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better."

44chux: Na the matter. My friend almost bunrt a rented apartment when he plugged the water tank pumping machine into a 13amps socket inside the palour when the outside dedicated 15amps socket outlet got damaged (The wire melted and caught fire b4 the breaker tripped.) I had to rewire and repaint the whole house.
When you have 3rd parties and even 4th parties using ur equipment, restriction become difficult to enforce.
I have a home workshop and home studio. We learn daily, Im a mechanical Engineer by profession but I got no clue when it comes to electrics ina building I B novice OO as we call it back in the days in ESUT, Im going to devote a set time to get familiar to these stuff as my current build is the only one I have supervised from setting out to its currents stage,I try small I hail myself..The safety of a house is so important that one can not be complaisant have resolved in decking all ceiling in all kitchens in any house that will be built under my name hence forth, even at my Dad's I had to enforce this same thing. Kitchen is where fires are deliberately lit.Also all cooking gas cylinders outside and piped fru wall to kitchen.I have seen the effect of not doing this 1st hand in a compound directly opposite my current house we live in @PH. |

TheAngry1: The man told us he was sick, and he duly handed over to his deputy. What do people want? The same people accusing Tinubu and Yorubas of silence forget that it was Tunde Bakare, Wole Soyinka, Yinka Odunmakin etc that initiated the protests that eventually led to Jonathan's emergence as President when a devilish cabal held us to ransom. Igbos suffer from a deep-seated hatred for other Nigerians and collective amnesia; that is why they do not see any good in our ongoing quest for national rebirth. Tinubu don talk, oya say something else. He should resign simple.Why is it hard for him to do so?is he going to contest in 2019 from here? |

olayiwola4u: Erico, I think the president's health to the top govt official seems to be the number 1 on the federal Govt agenda.
to them, it is better to save 1 person than to save more 100,000 in a state.
Naija with one kind - one kind attitude to insurgency.
I know one day, we will understand the root of the BLOOD YOU PEOPLE ARE SHARING. One day we will no longer idolize politicians then we will face reality.How can people support treatment of PMB in London when 2 years ago he was castigating people who seek treatment abroad and the budget or amount voted for health center in aso rock was nearly same as the total budget for ministry of health and education |

Politics › Re: Kanti Bello Says President Buhari Has Failed, Regrets Inviting Him To Politics by erico2k2(m): 10:17am On Jul 17, 2017 |
poseidon12: I would not really blame those that were deceived into voting for Buhari, especially if they admit their mistake and try to vote a better candidate in 2019, just like Senator Kanti Bello. Very little was known about Buhari's incompetence and tribalistic tendency before the election. Only few people (like Chief Ayo Adebanjo of Afenifere) really understood the real Buhari. A lot of people did not listen to him. He was even getting insults from a lot of his fellow Yoruba (especially the youth) who were being led astray by Tinubu. I got to know more about the real Buhari after reading Adebanjo's interview in the Vanguard newspaper. The man's predictions about Buhari was right on the money. We know loads about PMB cos most of us where born B4 he became president and head of state,we saw how he plunge the country into disarray, we witnessed first hand how he overthrew a sitting elected FG only to perform worse and steal Billions.oh we also remember PTF. |

stephenduru: According to a report shared by an online user,the lady pictured below who is said to be the 3rd wife of her husband allegedly killed 4 members of her family including her husband because she wants her children to inherit all the lands belonging to the family.The incident happened in Nsude,Ugwuoto(google search shows that the place is in Enugu).Below is what a social media user wrote...
'This is still unbelievable
God have mercy
How can you finish the whole family including your husband just because of land
They said she killed 4people from her family, because she is the 3rd wife of the man and she really wants her children to inherit the whole land and she also made twins crippled because she want her children to inherit the whole land owned by her husband
What will we call this?
My prayers is that, let the revelations began to flow to the whole part of Nsude because is not only in ugwuoto that we have evil people
God save your people in Jesus name Amen'

Aragon: Since we already know that we should continue doing stuff that hurts us directly? We both know they dont care and that is the more reason we should care for ourselves. Like me buying your locally made shoes instead of imported ones and you buying the Clothes i made as a Tailor instead of imported ones. Waiting on people who doesn't care to first act before we do is called suicide cos they will never change and they have the Money to continue and we don't. Change of mentality is what the average Nigerian need Bro I wont lie to you, My kids will never attend Uni in Nigeria,I can buy made in Nigeria clothes, I already have them .I got shoes made in Nigeria but thats not what I am on about, I wont take medical treatment in Nigeria if its a major one,I wil always do my medical check up in the Uk cos i can afford it and I worked for it. Good luck to those of you who believe in these BS these so called leaders spew out on a daily basis. |
