What other evidence do you need?

Just wait, the haters would soon arrive prepare

Writer clearly stated. He thinks the man is guilty not for naming his dog buhari but for printing the name on the dog and parading it in a largely hausa dominated market.

I do not see that as causing public unrest rather anyone in breach of peace should be arrested instead, if anyone feels offended by the naming or subsequent printing of the name on the Dog, they have every right to go to the court of law to make their case.

samson55:
I think dis is a reasonable statement written by a sensible human being lyk u....
if u think the man is nt guilty name ur dog after one of ur relative.. probably ur father or mother...

So If I name my Dog OBAMA, I get shot in AMerica right? or name my Dog Boris, I get shot too, thats right eh

VIPERVENOM:
Pretty good point. Imagine if i name my dog nnamdi kanu or ojukwu, print d name on the dog's body and parade it at mile 1 market here in ph.......na my body go tell me

You might be very surprise, nobody go price ur market

Almaiga:
Nice one, i Concur.

Who decides what would cause breach of public peace?
waht is the % of interest to the public?

Folks, this is the type of questions that attracted and retained me on Nairaland, including this thread. I am near completion of the floor/ architectural design of my build, with clarity about the functionality and flow of the the living space, floor-sense. My vision includes extant need for "solar power" and split unit A/C, waste disposal, etc, in a manner that considers traditional and new materials and implementation approaches. Specifically, with traditional roofs, I resented (1) the limited " true South" section of roof that is optimal for solar panels, (2). drilling through expensive roof work/tiles to mount Solar panels that are leak risky and aesthetically no-no! We, also, did not want multiplicity of split unit A/C outdoor units hanging on exterior walls or tethered to ground. Hence, we decided on a "concrete flat roof/terrace for an expanse that can optimize the # and average daily sun exposure of panels that can be discreetly Installed, alike AC compressors etc, out of view and wrinkles. Many family nays weeped rain about, "water leak", "heat" etc about this unconventional cement roof!,,,,,.

Meanwhile, the knowledge from this and other threads inspired us through iterations of plans that required "thinking out of the box" in evaluating challenges and discerning solutions, including many that are available in Nigeria and should be the greater focus of debate or embrace! In my journey thus far, I have had the privilege of discussions with our brother, Abdulwastecx, on Polystyrene (Polyindustries, Abuja) as structural and non structural alternatives to many norms. Axion Tuffcrete ( Canadian waterproof cement/concrete, etc) is available in Lagos. Biofil Toilet (and kitchen) Digester. https://www.nairaland.com/2138981/biofil-toilet-digester-alternative-septic is worthy of discussion and alike was mentioned in a newspaper article yesterday about the toilet waste system breach in Enugu.

In other words, our home will have a flat polystyrene slab concrete roof/terrace. Polystyrene slabs will server as cost/heat insulator. Our solar and AC will discreetly stay out of view. The roof slab will be imbued with the waterproof and insulation properties, while granting ample day and night recreational space for my family. Requisite Imagination and collaboration would not have happened if I had come amidst this thread in current ceaseless and overwhelming focus on the agreed ABSOLUTE wrongs of Brabus, and necessary restitution. Yet, his known victims must not, exuberantly deflect the wrath brewed in their support. Nairaland, at my age and view is a great find --- to enable me build a home of my desire and means, my personal dream home. I wil break ground soon, God willing life. Interim, many of the reputable builders may find that I have been following them, alike my folks building from diaspora. From the Spyd-guru (e.g.) to Egun-Americana (compliment), I have studiously followed! That is the initial legacy of this thread that must continue; folks abroad can gain/ regain the dare to build at home.
8 months only, I know I "senior" any newbie that drifts here to discern from general discussions on building. I just wish that they would see the latest pages (where most go) in more staying lights. As said, essence of this thread transcends views on any matter tabled under it. Those who can chew gum and walk ( not mutually exclusive) can help me consider pro-con: polystyrene. Biofil-waste, Waterproof concrete, flat concrete vs conventional roof etc. Let us consider too, whether there is a better water proofing solution than the one suggested on the message I quoted. If public concrete water tanks can be waterproof, why surface-proof?
Following are initial and latest view of my plan:

Very Nice, but please do sahre pics if you would so we can also pick one or two things from there, we are all learning still.You build might just inspire someone else.

But them no put these ones inside container na why dem come talk, thm no even rough handle them sef, mtchww

Guy I give up with police after an experience by a close friend who sells electronics, a police officer managed to bring out an inmate to confess in court that he sold stolen electronics to my friend in court.It was at the hearing the Guy feared God and told the Judge that he was lying and the police officer threatened to kill him hence he agreed to come to court but on seeing my friend he rather die than put my friend fru that ordeal.
So fear police Ohhhh

Bro I don't believe that, why did they say something else? Why didn't they say they were high way robbers? Why did they say they sell pants? Why didn't say they stole. Why did they choose to say they were coming from oyo?

And moreover the boys don't even look as if they have tortured them. So mind what u say and don't forget that behind every rumor small truth go dey inside

MutantMetahuman:
yes we need to enlighten people to get rid of these superstious beliefs that are causing unnecessary bloodshed .. Same way some European take it unpon themselves to educate people from Europe that there is nothing like witchcrafts ..
And at least we could forgive those in the medieval age, cos they are not educated and have less information that we have now

But, fhuck sake, this is 21st century not the medieval age anymore.
Africans still behaving like barbarians in computer age is very embarrassing and archaic.

Its even more embarassing to see someone and a supposed educated person believe having ladies panties and factory made weavon means you are a ritualist.. Honestly, if my uneducated great great great grand mother said something like that, I will understand because she doesn't know any better, but someone that has passed through the 4 walls of schools? Mehn!!!

In the court of law there would be no case against them cos I do not see how CPO can draft anything in form of a case in court haven said all that . .These boys would go at any leghnt to get rich . If what they just did don't work what next?.These might be same set of people who might trade in body parts . Cos that's how it starts . But I'm sure the law enforcement could have dealt with this better.

MutantMetahuman:
a hoe like you probably forgot it in their car or they probably belong to their girlfriends..
How is this proof that they are ritualist and deserved to be attacked by backward barbarians like yourself who thinks anybody who lives a good life must be a ritualist.

Ediots like you that add superstition to everything and justify the killing and brutalizing people for shameless accusations like (someone stealing penis or ediotics stories like this)
Is the reason Africa is still very backward..

Barbaric dunces.

Well you seem to forget it's Africa not UK or USA . Superstitious believes thrive here still and we have to respect them.
Don forget in these advance countries once upon a time witches where burnt alive as punishment . The Vikings ate people .

Davash222:

Mazeed:

And the winner is

jared007:
Koko Junction is not in Warri but Oghara. Oghara and Koko Town is miles away from Warri! Silly ritualists they should ve remained in Oyo becos Deltans ve no space for ritualists.

Ask yourself where warri south local government is and what their HQ . It's part of warri LG via waterside .

NLresidentQS:
Oga Erico, I broke it down for you but you seems not to understand. Now I'll re-explain.

For the records, I currently work at Dantata&Sawoe, Abuja.

Say the ministry of works advertised for pre-qualification bidding for a particular development and Dantata & Sawoe is interested in bidding for the project; Here- Ministry of work is the client. And D&S is the contractor/builder.
Statutorily, Ministry of works has a resident QS that is in charge of quantifying the project, developing detailed cost and and monitoring the figures to be submitted by any chosen contractor among other duties.

D&S receives tender documents from the ministry and gives them to THEIR OWN Resident QS. Also, the architect and structural engineer at D&S prepare detail drawing and forward to the Tender department vis-a-vis quantity surveying department. The QS now prepares a comprehensive BOQ from the information available, valuations and other certificates at the inception of work to be submitted to Ministry.

Now if D&S is finally chosen to handle the development, throughout the construction life, both QSs keep measuring works, comparing values to eradicate corruption. D&S QS prepares daily, weekly and monthly reports, progress of work, access and egress of materials and monthly valuations to be submitted to the Ministry through her QS

The ministry's QS also report to her employer, checks valuations submitted by Q&S, interim certificates and approves payment.

Throughout the life cycle of the project, both professionals defend the interest of their clients fiercely, and make sure work does not escalate beyond allocated cost.

Do you understand sir?

Garritttt

topsy23:
QS prepare bill of quantity and include contingency in-case of variations

SO if Im getting you rightly in a big construction company ie JB, the QS provides/prepare the Bill of quantity to be used by JB
if thats waht you are saying that means its the builder' responsibility then not the client cos for JB to know how much to tender as bidding it needs to know the quantity and cost the person charged with such responsibility i n JB is the QS and its in house.am I right here?

twinskenny:
Client...

Ok
In big construction coy, who provides the Bill of quantity to be used in bidding

I have been asking a question here with no answer yet, who is it that is meant to hire a QS? Client or Builder/contractor ??

And

sCun:
Thought they said Jonathan left nothing in the foreign reserves? Is it the dog called Buhari that dropped this one there?

Trust me Bro, nobody go gree answer that question

Deen77:
Mr, is you and me suffering light problem.

Before Democracy Nigeria generate 1.6/1.8 mw. If you remove 1.6mw from 5,000mw PDP handover after 16 years, that means PDP only generate 3.4mw for 16 years.

Minister of darkness is Avengers sabotaging the government of the day.

and we cant maintain the 3.4mw they left us with, so whats your point/??

FriendChoice:
Good Bless PMB for turning militant into entrepreneurs.

Some people are angry now, because of this nice development. Thank God it's 9 month program, otherwise haters will say "It's work of Jonathan, Buhari taking glory 4 it"

U Don start una nor dey tire ? ??

podosci:
The elimination is just an example, You can decide from experience that 17 and 25 would do the job, its even possible 10m would do the job but the likelihood of someone doing a very good job for you with 10m when the actual worth is 30m is very low. Thats why you still need ro use the competency of the builder to select.
Why not subscribe to the Consultancy services of the QS, so he would factor in the flunctuations in the prices of materials over time
The same way people decide a builder/Engineer is not needed for a small project, is the same way a QS is not needed. In Nigeria there is no aganecy to enforce building standards or the agency is not serious about it, everybody is free to build is house the best way he sees fit but i am letting you know the proper way to go so as to reduce the possiblities of being cheated or possibilities of a builder running a way with your money.
The method i explained above is how building contracts are evaluated and awarded by the Nigerian governement but corruption as replaced the process even contracts as low as 10m undergo the same process

I think I will agree to NL1960 here . The QS work in a construction company is to quantify . Tell you the numbers of what and what is needed for where hence his analysis would go with inflation even in 200 years time .
So if he come up with 150 y16 rebars for a slab that would remain same regardless of cost..
I worked for a small coy in central London for the cross rail project we installed laser guided cameras to monitor shift or movement of existing building cos of shaft excavation . Now the QS hired told us homey of these we needed . Someone else told us howmuch it would cost and someone was responsible for us not to go above cost project manager . In all there was no law that states we had to follow that route rather it's just more efficient and cost effective to do it that way.
So in all it was the Builder who employs the QS not the client

back2sender:
Maverick you want to start writing like madam lastpage. No copy bad thing.
Johnny Eghosa has more credibility than Excuzeme and brabus combined. At least we never hear sey Johnny build house when sink.
Madam last page has been relegated to the dustbin of history due to his support of fraudulent act, he came with last page he was dealt a heavy blow, he went back and restragize and came back with Excuzeme and he was given a technical knockout.
Una bad for here, chei dearis is God ooooo

How darkness wan take hide light

podosci:
Thats why i prefer a consultancy approach in dealling with certain companies. Negotiate a consultancy service with your QS, he/she would offer you his services through the duration of the projec. He would be able to adjust the BOQ to reflect price fluntuations.

Is the QS not in a beter position to negotiate a cost range to the builder rather than the client ? From my knowledge it's the QS that give a valid quotation to a company to use in giving cost as negotiations to prospective clients .
