baba decision enforcer, marriage is an equal rights partnership. Not an autocratic govt, d man might as well change his number.
wait until ur wife recieves calls from her ex just to say hi and hows she is doing and see how it feels,to B honest, why would I want to chat to my ex when I am married? if for biz purpose then yeh cos in marriage one has to compromise, don't ever do anything that will hurt ur husband/wife, Emotionally, changing of one's number wont hurt but not changing it would hurt. and can do serious emotional damage and introduce trust issues.

Dear Nairaland family.

Have been married for a couple of months now and my spouse have been disturbing and threatening me to dispose my sim cards that everything about me needs to change since am now a married woman.He complain alot about frequent calls by my ex,to be sincere I have nothing to do with anyone again since am married and have explain to him but he wouldn't listen.I told him I have other business partners that calls on this same number and one of this line is for business and am well known with it,am scared I might lose some vital businesses or contracts due to this.I told him but all proved aborted.This has been an issue and am fed up.Is it mandatory after I changed name I should also change number? PLZ ADVICE ME
U dated ur husband for some time, thats enough time for ur ex to forget you, you are married ur ex still calls you and you are asking why you should kill that number
Advice:get a new SIM/Number, text all ur important clients,friends and family ur new number and destroy that old SIm end of story if not you will we soon hear ** He dumped me just 4 months after wedding**

Car Talk › Re: Brake Pads And Brake Lining Which Is More Effective? by erico2k2(m): 12:50pm On Apr 13, 2016
airsaylongcon:
Siena talk forced me to do a lot of reading about cars ọ. I used to drive and Audi 80 B3 (still drive it when I just want to mock about). I never knew anything ABOUT audi platforms until I saw Siena tell someone that he (Siena) has no clue what an Audi Tiger Face was. My jaw dropped. I'm like "what other name can someone call Tiger Face again?" ended up reading so much stuff and found a Tiger Face is an Audi 80 B4 and the jallopy I had was a B3. Now I'm knowledgeable all the way to B6 (cos that's the latest I've handled). I've got wiring diagrams, maintenance manuals and all what not from B3 to B6. Some in Russian sef that I translated to English.
Lol this guy gt me cracked up

What happened to officers that were trained on the same IED stuff in Norfolk in 2011? The IG should contact CompolEOD, Lagos Annex at Bank Anthony way lkeja to draft experience men to do the needful before trainees return. It is regrettable that these experienced officers have been MALICIOUSLY transferred. Grace of God upon Supol(s) Aziegbe, Freeman, Robinson, John and all gallant men risking their lives to attack IED's. Shout out to ret. AIG Chris Olakpe.

Well done Sir! I can see you have stated Site Engineer and Supervisor but haven’t mentioned a Structural Design Engineer.
Have you consulted a Structural Engineer?
Has the imposed load on the floors been factored in? BS EN 1991 states between 1.5kNm2 to 2kN/m2. I guess for Nigeria where we store heavy stuff, you can increase to 3kN/m2. This will determine the characteristic strength of concrete block.
Is the bearing capacity of the soil suitable enough for the strip footing to resist the line load from the walls? This will also determine the width of your strip footing.
Will the concrete floor be left for 28 days to cure before anything is done on it?
Has a basic or normal geotechnical survey been carried out to ascertain the soil type which will determine foundation type and other design decisions?
Is the boundary of the site very close to future buildings that will impose a weight on your foundation? In that case any future foundation will need to be deeper and ensure a 45 degree load distribution line will not touch your foundation.

Everything looks good anyway!!

Congrats
This is the type of inquest I yearning for and yes to %75
Of what you asked. It has taken nearly 2 years to do all that. For what it's worth in the Nigerian context it would be an over build.

You cant tell sir unless you know the load take off coming from the building. A strip foundation does not really need high depths but needs to be wider
Thanks the width of the blinding is in excess of 2 ft

I am sure oga ericko can still use 6" hollow blocks for the remainder of the block work since the project is currently at window level. Or is that not a possibility?
I'm using 6 inches hollow for the top just and a weight +cost issue.

Aventures:
I concur. Just in addition, this house may have been designed using a partition load based on hollow blocks. Also there could be some little challenges in running 4 inches pipes as conduit except the design has made a provision for duct.
Did U mean water pipes?

If you have a knack for details...if you are able to research and learn....

You will do better constructing your own house with the supervision of an engineer/architect than a lot of the so-called builders in Nigeria. For the most part, you will be in control of the process.

The biggest concern is kidnapping.

Oga..


I just need to give you one advice..

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WITH YOUR SECURITY AND HOW YOU VISIT YOUR SITE..

The Kidnapping in Port Harcourt no get respect o!

Do not carry cash to site to pay workers yourself. Infact, never be seen with money at site.

Keep the lowest profile you can.

I have a building project ongoing in Port Harcourt and even Nicodemus dey learn work for my hand on covet site visitation. I know many people who have been kidnapped from their work site before.


Goodluck with your crib.
Thanks a lot point taken.I have often thought of this and to my workers I am site supervisor I dress down and park my car away. I am taking evry precautions and I do take ur advise seriously cos I know boys ain't smiling especially PH boys.
God bless.
