As una nor see Oil money share so una wan bring another platform abi?

jayesmalling:
The people there deserved more than this. I want to see the military turturing them.

Dont worry e go soon clear 4 ur eye

Goke7:
have we ever had this kind of economic downturn in recent times? Like I said earlier, Let's keep politics out if we want to be truly objective

you mean Oil @ $50?

eightsin:
Post UTME scrapped but universities are allowed to screen candidates send to them?

How are they going to do the screening? Oh! Maybe it is going to be a free screening. VCs will not agree because they make a lot of cash from it

Same way they screened back in the 90s
Scores and O level.grades. what's wrong with that?

geejayjax:
Abeg make una answer ur Boi

You need to atleast give dimensions or the roof plan then the pros would take it frm there

EgunMogaji:
Oh blimey, yes sir I do.

This is why I love this place. We have unprecedented access to high level information from the pros. And for free too. What a smashing deal, init

Yes ooooo,
Ps .anybody from PH here? I heard it's raining cats n dogs there so now work on sites today.

This is a blow to the corrupt basket of our institutes of higher learning but they should deal with the shortfall of cash flow.

EgunMogaji:
Solid points all the way.

When I've questioned builders on here, I've been told that it's due to the clients buoyancy and sometimes need to build fast due to omo onile, etc

No one has said it saved money but this settling issue that you brought up is alarming.

My two ongoing builds have monolithic flooring.

Baba morning .you remember our arguments about this same issue? And we both settled for the German for be for the full structure. There is cost implications if you do not do it at the initial stage.your rooms are boxed in.

I just noticed that uPVC can come with double and triple pane like EBM. What of the window profile....since its molded, can one decide to increase the profile or its only produced to a particular size?

The Glaze is Glass, 1 glas,2 glass and 3 glas,
for strength and reduction of heat loss.

KolaShangOne:
Thank you sir

@erico2k2 yes I noticed the small amount of mortar too. That is purely down to the mix. In Nigeria, some people use 1 bag of cement to set 80-100 blocks.. Of course it won't bind properly.

quick question, what would be an ideal mix for block setting ,what can one bag set as i n how many blocks ie 6inch solid?

babalose:
@EgunMogaji....thanks for your prompt response. I will check the link. Price is not an issue for me but my core focus is strength and durability not aesthetic. Nothing I distaste as much as recurrent expenses.
Insulation works both ways. It can trap the cold air indoors when the house gets cold and you decide to off the AC and it can make the house feel like oven when there is no light.

More enlightenment on uPVC pls.

its the next thing after Aluminum windows

lastpage:
Thank you Bros..... but you have to be more specific, on WHAT EXACTLY l am wrong about?

Is it on the material make-up?
Is it on the comparative strength?

Me na small Boyz and except you break it down to my level, l will just be asking Teacher: Pardon! Pardon!! Pardon!!!


BTW: Below is a quote by the original poster, on this thread:

Please take special note of the portion l high-lighted.

Thanks,

@Brabus: Have you ever seen where the Captain decides he wants to abscond from the class?

to your first question
I will say the material composition cos it contains a strong alloy of steel and Aluminum then coated with plastic (PSV) to make it look good
to your 2nd question I wil like to use teh term coated Aluminum
PS: Plz Ignore teh dirty windows,thats the only window I could find like just now that has that.My hows is a town house and we have teh 1930s window still.
and don't try to steal my position on this thread, by the special grace of God I'm the youngest landlord here

WHAT IS EXECUTIVE INSIDE THIS YAMAYAMA FOOD THEY SERVED GEJ. GEJ IS NOT VEGETARIAN, GARRI WITH BANGA SOUP, JOIN WITH ASSORTED MEAT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. ENJOY YOURSELF GEJ MAKE TOMPOLO DEY RUN UP AND DOWN.

E Pain am

lastpage:
Okay, l would take it that l am wrong!
Not too old to learn.

Now, can you please show me some pictures of the uPVC, possibly one where l can see the coupling/internal materials as well.
Or just refer me to the manufacturer's website so l can do some reading on my own.

Specifically, what material are they made-of?
How would they withstand the brute-force of someone trying to remove them from the wall using Chisel or Hammer?


Thank you in advance.

Goke7:
since 1999, every successive govt have been having brilliant minds in its cabinet, obj had the likes of soludo, oby ezekeweli, el rufai, segun agagu and others. Yar adua had Dora Akinyuli, Godwin Abbe, Rilwanu Lukman and co.

The problem with some of you guys is that it was in the Jonathan administration that some of you were old enough to assess how brilliant the ministers are, Nigeria have been having very brilliant ministers from time, the likes of olukoye ransome kuti comes to mind and joe garba.

This present cabinet have lots of brilliant guys, just the economic downturn is making them look bad, if the Jonathan ministers were the ones in now, they will not look better. Let's stop playing politics and be more objective.

Your arguments was making sense until your last paragraph. Economic downturn has always existed. It takes a brilliant mind for the people not to feel the full effect.

Well we can safely say Oil is more.valuable than human lives in this administration

Goke7:
Lies as if Nigeria has not been running before the previous guys, oh we just go our independence when those former ones got on board abi?

This is our problem, the inability to move on from the past.

Ok I challenge you Name anybody in the past present or future that you think was better than them ova to you. Don't just shout lies put your money where ur mouth is
Name them.

mikolo80:
how were they cheated. we're they sleeping when voting on land use act or petroleum act

Cheated as in No one from the ND owns an oil block it's owned by the Danjumas of Nigeria
Plz recieve sense it's Monday the 6th June 2016

Akshow:
Not condoning what happened in kano cos that was very barbaric but I detest the hypocrisy and double standard of the South. We don't see outcry and condemnation of the barbaric things that happen down south. From beheading, to jungle justice and burning people alive. If there is anybody that take the laws into their hands it's southerners. Online warriors won't see this and condem it on social media as they would do if it happened in the north.

I thought this was cult war? ?
Aluu is full of students t

Goke7:
you did not read my post well, I said if the present ones are failing, they can give way to other Nigerians and not these former ones, are they the only ones with experience?

Are you saying we can never have better ones than the adeshinas and others? This is where I disagree, reason we keep recycling public officials and we keep complaining

I did read it well.I am saying we might not have better persons than the stated obvious. Who can you name?
Definitely we can check the CV of the past guys. We need people who can deliver not trial error.

EgunMogaji:
It warms the cockles of my heart when I see good quality work like you showed.

It starts from the materials too.

Look how good those bricks look as opposed to the one shared before that looked like what a Cat regurgitated.

This is true.pro are different from quacks
See photos of quacks .done with recycled bricks and shady finish

JuanDeDios:
GEJ had very few concrete achievements you can point to. Yes, the economy grew but that was only inevitable given the huge amounts of petrodollars that flowed in. Jonathan had only one good minister in terms of brilliant efforts and some achievements and that was Olusegun Aganga. Unfortunately, Akinwunmi Adesina's noise-making machinery succeeded in deceiving Nigerians with phantom achievements in agriculture. I agree the guys currently running things are bumblers who have no idea how to make akamu let alone run a government.

Bro with due respect the past govt had a lot of achievement. It depends on what you call achievement. If you was corrupt with salary deduction and the minister for finance brought a system where the new payment system locks you out if you declare more than you are verified for ofcos the minister is evil lop
Most of the achievements of the past FG manifest in different forms.u need to know what to look for to give them credit.
My Dad and younger bro work for the FG my mum state a head mistress. Dad and bro get paid as when due Mum owed now for 3 months. There was a mechanism in place that caused it.
In all my guy if the present can not prove to be better than the previous then the SAD reality is the past was the best we have 4 now unless someone else out perform them.
Look how the Banks are bullying everybody just cos the woman there have no clue of how to tackle them.

Goke7:
All these calls for GEJ goons to come back to power just after one year shows that some fellows can't just let go after all. If the present ones are not delivering, definitely they can give way for other Nigerians out there but to bring back same folks in a country of over a 100 million means we are just interested in making strong men instead of strong institutions. This is why we keep having strong cabals holding us to ransom always.

Secondly I can see those folks are not jobless in the first place, they have since moved on to other accomplishments so why can't we move on here too.

I think you have the wrong arguments
The right argument should be are these guys we have there the right ones for the JOB
These positions requires more than text book applications it now requires knowledge derived from expirence. We as a Nation have progressed from 1980s

JuanDeDios:
So we saw success under GEJ? Ok.

In all honesty and what we now know the answer is YES so far.
But me think the reason we never took them serious then was cos we had nothing to compare them to.we had no wide range of information streams 10 years ago and statistics where nearly non existent b4 GEJ came to the limelight. .We had no KPIs to mesure performance.
I hoping some of these guys in power will sit back and think of where they gt it wrong even if it means going back to some of the old policies as far as it changes things for the good

I won't miss class today
I vow to fight kwarruption plus Noise making I this class
We seem to have ghost members here too
I got that frm a source who pled for anonymous stat.
I promise to release the list ASAP.

Food 4 thought bellow
Still on the bricks and blocks

iffedayur:
If this crew had been that exceptional, we shouldn't be importing fuel by now, our roads and airport shouldn't be an eyesore, we shouldn't be importing rice, we shouldn't be having epileptic power supply, our heritage shouldn't be soiled. We don't need them anymore because they depleted our foreign reserves.

You keep talking of foreign reserve.
How old where you when few govt from the SW pus one Amaechi from the SS took the FG to court to share that much needed savings which helped us during the recession? We forgot did we?
Importation has not been and would not be a problem if local policies are gotten right. China imports more than we do
The UK imports more than us and they are just 65milion people.plantain and bananas get imported.
Toothpick are imported into the UK
These are market driven and has nothing to do with politics.
Our heritage is not solid cos we as people have failed to develop ourselves. We can all learn from china and India. The first tier of govt are corrupt even the non public sector are worse off.
What we as Nigerians need is some sound and robust Economic policies to reset the economy.
These 4 people especial that guy the Agricultural minister was the best we ever had.I wud give my hat up for PMB if he could re state him.In a sane country that would have been the case.
The finance sector was growing. We had loads of invested intrest then and loads of forex was coming in.We had a well oiled financial machine that where fulfilling it's KPIs.now we are nose diving. All we hear is cost of oil and corruption. Fine these are the case but still we had all these years back.
So what's the way 4 ward? ?blame the past fg for the next 9 yrs?

VenusBetty:
you've made a lot of sense with just few lines.

I dnt think so.importation has never been a problem rather diversification has been our problem crippled with corruption.
I will give brief description in a sec

omoagbanimi:
GEJ tenor wasnt about bein loyal to pdp. He chooses the ppl he knew are best for the Job even though some use the advantage to embezzled. Tell me if they were powerful and loyal in pdp where is Iweala powerful in politics? How is madueke powerful in pdp and them rep? Lots more names that added to his admin and the nation was glowing. Spare me that shit that they embezzled coz we all know there's no fkin saint in this country...

Exactly most of them where not politicians

luvinhubby:
Duty waivers is a global practice adopted to keep essential survival commodities like staple foods affordable to low income earners & it was a temporary arrangement done to cushion the price of rice since the govt was stimulating local rice production which was grossly inadequate.

You know sometimes some people deserve to be called zombies. They won't see the point you ate trying raise.
Waivers are very essential to a growing economy as far as it's being checked. Once again tribalism won't let people think straight. Apparently it's the duty of one tribe to derve I to import biz who told the rest not to jump I to that biz??
PS:b4 anyone quote me I'm not IPOB. And certainly not Igbo.

olajizz01:
Abegi, forget about being technocrats or not,okonjo who cannot save or diversify our monoeconomy when we had rousy economy or ihijirike whose Gej choose because he was from SE,he had no impact on bh when he was chief security,tecnocrats under my foot,no be by book them they do am nah,na by action,most of u people esp.u Igbos are tribalist,only Adesina i can authoritatively say his ministry had positive result eventually.

Oga one question for you during the GEJ era was election carried out in the BH areas??
Did the NA but more equipment to fight? ?
Even wen the west cried resession what was our situation again? ?

Habakus:
Well,honestly Op,these people you mentioned are... What do i call them now?... They're Technocrats,like someone said above. Ask yourself: why have these people been given more responsibility internationally after they left the government? If these guys had continued,maybe this country would have been miles ahead than it's present state now. Ask yourself: does Nigeria detest corruption more than USA,UK etc that keep on given these guys more award and responsibilities? Nigerians should hide their heads in shame for once again,we've been deceived and set back by like 30 years.

Tribalism and political afiliation won't allow them do that.
