Going very good. Big savings too. Don't forget to use the black plastic spread under the iron on top of the wood...
Luckily, on one of my latest project, I was able to rent woods and bamboo... magic work of my builder, Aventures; one of the nicest guy around here. Good thing the guy knows I am the King of Kobo-kobo projects.smiley

I must express my admiration for this concept "Do It Yourself". A couple of years ago, I posted here on Nairaland concerted efforts I was making to hurriedly complete my 3 bedroom bungalow so I can finally be free from my cantankerous landlady. Today, the building is as good as ready to move; though tiling work and wiring are ongoing as I write. I am particularly encouraged by the likes of Hajj, Rotech and lot more people I can't recall their names. May the good Lord continue to use to you encourage many more people to aspire to owning their own "homes". Thank you
Thanks man, much appreciated.

you think he is dancing because of the things he will deliver to you or to his bank account and children? You don't know he is celebrating because his investment will not be wasted.

Somebody who goes to government to serve the people has no time to dance because the problems are planty. Look at Obama and Blair and how they aged in office, it's only in Nigeria that you leave office looking fresher.
He is dancing cos Him don get alert grin

Thousands of Cross River youths and students gathered in their numbers to welcome governor Ben Ayade at the Margaret Ekpo International Airport in Calabar... It will be recalled that this is the first instance the governor will be returning to Cross River after the 9th December judgement at the Supreme Court of Nigeria that went to his favour.

@Post

I laugh when I hear Nigerians talk about starting a business in Nigeria, a country were things like power supply and water is still scarce in many places. Since I moved back to Nigeria, I have watched how bulldozer will show up at one's shop/business and destroy everything in a matter of minutes without any forewarning. Nigeria does not keep an active database where people can check to see whether a property was built on a piece of land illegally. After paying the rent for the shop, one day, it gets torn down with the twinkle of an eye. Look at what happened to a business called Nuli Juice in Lagos. The young lady who owned the business had a vision and invested lots of money into the business just for it to be demolished with no notice given before hand. I have attached pictures of the business in question. Now imagine the many businesses we do not get to hear about that get demolished everyday with no advance warning and all that investment money down the drain. Even large corporations are running away from Nigeria because the ease of doing business in Nigeria is not there. The environment is not conducive except for very hardened people.

I would definitely become an entrepreneur but not in Nigeria. One has to be extremely aggressive in personality to succeed in Nigeria. It is no wonder life expectancy in Nigeria is so low - a measly 52 years - when other countries have a life expectancy rate of 80 years and above. I am not trying to die before my time. I can only succeed as an entrepreneur in a conducive environment where there is structure, law and order. I have no strength to start going crazy when NEPA again does not give light once dry season comes in January and fuel marketers go on strike thereby causing artificial fuel scarcity and plunging people into darkness.

So many businesses have left Nigeria and moved to Ghana and other neighboring African countries because Nigeria's government policies do not favor small and medium business owners. Not everyone has the strength and tenacity to survive as an entrepreneur in a rugged terrain like Nigeria where common electricity is not even available most times. Some government officials will keep harassing business owners for bribe and what have you. I am leaving Nigeria again soon God willing because I yearn to live long in a sane clime where access to uninterrupted power supply and water is a piece of cake and government policies favor business owners.

As for those who studied abroad, don't make the mistake of coming back to Nigeria. That will be the biggest mistake you will make except of course your father/mother happens to be a politician or successful pastor of a mega church. I don talk my own.
As per your last paragraph,
you dont want them to return home,what would they do abroad since they have student Visa? become illegal migrants with no rights at all?

What m trying to say is a foreign degree doesn't guarantee your capability. Most students tend to have this issue of let me just get the certificate then I can start hustling whatever skill I need later on.

They take certificates as a stepping stone.
Talking about capability, teh UK schools are in a different league, they actually do more physical work in the field than classroom.If studied in the Uk you will know what I me an.Problem we have in Nigeria is lack of investment.In teh west Government pay employers to train youths.
