Yhunoos:
The Katsina State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB), has directed primary school teachers and all head teachers in the state to withdraw their children from private schools for enrolment in public schools.

Chairman of the SUBEB, Lawal Buhari Daura gave the directive on Wednesday, when he led management of the Board on an inspection tour of Local Education Authority (LEA) in Kankia.

Daura said the directive was in line with an earlier order issue by the Governor, Aminu Bello Masari that public officers under his administration must patronise public schools.

He insisted that the directive was part of efforts to revive the education sector, but was silent on whether or not penalties awaited defaulters.

Our correspondent reports that findings indicate that most of the primary school teachers in public schools do not patronise public schools as they enrol their children and wards in private schools, an action which suggests that they have no confidence in the public schools.

Buchukwu:
You're an Ediotic Idi0t. The truth hurts, Can you point one achievement this !mbecilE you called a president has made, I said just one. If you don't know what wailing is, grab your dictionary. If you don't say just ONE achievement of buhari in these 100 day, you'll die by accident before this week runs out. Ise, Ise, Ise I've spoken

Kia Bross you vex goooohn,sotey U invite una vilage Juju join

[quote author=KolaShangOne post=37362143][/quote]This brings us back to the point,i could just point out your flaws and teh mentality of the average Nigerian workman.Now even if the Gen cost N300K wont it be yours? wont it be part of your tools? would it not encourage you to buy more power tools that runs on electric? things like electric cement mixers, compactors,concrete sprayers ,grinders etc?these are how people started here in the west,Only in Nigeria you will see a contractor handling N50M project and they do not have a building yard,everything they use is use and die or rent, cement mixers will cost £280 to buy probably £150 to ship, how many builders in Nigeria own one? or lets limit this to nairaland who amongst builders own one? yet the average daily rental is N10K right?In other the news, I posted three cranes, one is a chain crane and the other two are electric crane one has 1000KG lift capacity that's 10 bags of cement, the other has 1500KG 15 bags of cement,So the question of what you can carry is solved.The whole reason we got to this crane issue was to do with mechanization plus tools of the trade.Right tools makes your jobs cheaper and fast plus consistent.

buchilino:
one thing u guys dont understand is dat with or without SS support, igbos will always survive. we r born 2 survive n adopt 2 any situations.

I know, Im not arguing that with you, ever see anybody frm ND saying they want to join you guys?U can only achive Biafra if you guys stick with your pure SE states,the greed for the ND was the downfall of ur fore father during the struggle and youths still have not learnt from it,make UNU wise small,the ND people believe in themselves alone nah time remain

millionaireman:
So you don't know that Oduduwa Republic shall develop faster than Yoruba land remaining in conflict-ravaged Nigeria?

You see the red lights in Lagos and you shout Alleluia, Yoruba land is more developed than Igbo land. You don't know that development in rest of Yoruba land has been constrained by the inadequacies of one Nigeria?

You don't know that the most developed countries of the world have no crude oil, one of them - Switzerland - is even landlocked.

Plz enlighten me on what sort of development the swiz has, Enlighten the house waht they contributed in science and tech.I wan learn frm U oh

babestella:
These OMLs were supposed to expire in 2016 and GEJ has plans to revoke all OML and have a balanced review of all. This is the more reason why the whole generation of mallams ganged up with SW against GEJ. I can confidently tell you that this nation is a big scam. 85% is slavery I must say.

if we frm the 9ja Delta talk now say the North have been using the SW against the SS since 1800 dem go say we no wise.

yorubatic:
My people let us start agitating for a sophisticated and progressive Odu'a republic. I want us to be as brave as the ibos....if ibos are cowards, they won't be fighting for biafra all these years....

Mind you the rest of nigerians are cowards, not the ibos...it is the British who won the biafran war because British consider Nigeria their property....

Eastern nigeria is British property but biafra is not....Biafra is more or less considered an ibo man property, hence the British refusal to let go....

Nigeria as whole a is British property, and among these slaves of the British, it only the ibos who want freedom, just as it has always been during the slave trade...ibos are not slaves and can never be a slave. ...

I am agitating for my yorubas people to wake up and stop being slaves and O'yes to anything

How many yorubas are agitating for odua republic? How many Hausa / Fulani are agitating for arewastan? How many ijaw is agitating for ijaw republic? Then asked your dunce selves, my people, how many ibos want to be a Nigeria?

My people stop being Dunces of the century ...Join me and musiwa to agitate for our sophisticated and progressive Odu'a republic

Hmmm you are on your own there Ooh as Odu'a republic no get any oil

more pics

Xcelent job going on here, well done.

EgunMogaji:
You're absolutely right about the codes.

I think this is why many folks in diaspora get had. They are used to a layer of security in having city code inspectors. We don't have that enforcement in Nigeria.

During a typical construction here you will get standard visit at specific intervals where they will come in and check the quality of the build.

Something as simple as pouring foundation slab will have (at least in my area) a city code inspector onsite to verify the concrete mix, the forms and steel work. If they forgot and didn't call for city inspection then the slab gets broken up and repaired.

They check electrical, plumbing, roofing, framing so no shortcuts and thus we can expect quality because it's not just the owner and builder but the government agency that is involved.

The Egbosa alleged leaning pillar and falling parapet would never occur at least in my area and I suspect in most US cities.

We'll get there but it won't be easy, it will be as a result of customers like me who demands quality and will pay for it within reason and builders like you that understand that things can be done better, faster

A lot of these tools are really cheap chinese stuff that should be easily importable into Nigeria.

Thanks for the compliment, I get upset when I'm dismissed off hand that I do some stuff because they are expensive over there. I do my stuff because I actually enjoy working withy hands. In the car talk section, when I used to visit, we have guys there that are doing their brake repairs, change oil, repair their cars, they go the hard way sometimes of ordering original parts from the US/Europe and doing the work themselves.

If you remember my building plan that I shared with you, there is a dedicated 20' X 19' (almost 400 square feet) of space for a 2 car garage. That space is non negotiable as it's the place that I'm the most happiest. The center piece will be the pictured, a four post lift on one side. I definitely should not need to work on cars when I retire to Nigeria but it is the core of what makes me, me

Thinking about it I might need to use hardcore under the garage floor.

ahah chey we don know wher we go dey 4 look our cars under on saturday morning be dat.Plz let me know wen teh hydrolic lift completes,I like to see under my car in clear daylight

abdulwastecx:
I like the lift crane, simple and easy to use.... we love to have one soon

yes it will be a good kit for you as a pro,it beats me when contractors refuse to stock tool and rely heavily on renting or sticking to same old ways of labour for decades.

ikp120:
Is this not pvc floor?

what I meant is, have you thought of waht might happen if candle light drop on this PVC floor?

EgunMogaji:
Nigeria is not unique, people get up early here too. We have traffic too.

I don't take my cars to car wash, I wash them myself because I enjoy working on my cars but I do feel guilty because I use more water than the car wash and I don't recycle like they are required to.

I do woodwork, build sheds, rebuild engines, restore cars not because mechanics or builder are expensive, not all of them are, I do them because I actually enjoy it.

I've seen bicyclists on Nigerian roads, I've seen ex helicopter pilots in Nigeria, etc somehow these folks manage to do these non essential stuff despite the rigors of Nigeria.

eheh true 2many big man.No one wants to get hier hands dirty.

NL1960:
When you wake up by 4am in Lagos to go to the office and return home by 11pm everyday and doing that for 5 days, on a Saturday morning, the last thing on your mind is to go and do DIY of tilling a floor. Just try that and within a short time, when the person drops dead, his people will start blaming the old witch in the village.

Abroad, you have no option than to do DIY because paying a technician over there is expensive. Calculate the hourly wage in a place like UK or US and multiply that by 8 hours of work and then convert to Naira and then compare that to what you have to pay here, you will see why you do not have to bother yourself on DIY for little things.

To wash my car at a car wash place, i will likely pay N500. Is it because of N500 that i should disturb my peaceful sleep and rest from stress to go and do DIY of washing the car?.

haha Haba I enjoy washing my car though

abdulwastecx:
Do you have any idea on how one can by a simple batching plant with capacity to batch about 1cubic meters of concrete per mix?

No Idea but will have a look

Nice work oh, keep it coming and keep us posted

KolaShangOne:
Oga Egunmogaji, This pulley system. Does it transfer things from a low to high level or from a high to low level? What's the maximum load it can carry? How many blocks will I carry till the belt wears off? And of course I know it must have a Programmable Logic Controller like Allen Bradley or Siemens which is expensive to operate and experts are needed for writing its "languages".

Hanger cranes can be used to carry concrete weighting several tonnes.

Secondly, can CLIENTS cope with the increase that using this equipments will cause to their budget?

Plz see the two cranes I posted both less than 50k to buy minus shipment in the Uk,the first one has 1000KG capacity, the 2nd one has 1500KG capacity,one bag of cement is 50KG,so can lift 10 bags in one go.Does this answer any of you suspicions?

I saw this direct lift crane, less than N50K in today's money to buy.

Ok here is a thought, who has ever thought of building a concrete mixer and a concrete sprayer?

KolaShangOne:
Yes you can mix it.. But can you carry 1 headpan from the pour point to the work point?

this where my thinking cap comes in,you know I can build a pulley system with 50K to solve that problem?? its challenges like these that lead the west into industrial revolution, back then it looked like play.make I bring diagrams and reality sketch?

spyder880:
Why is it that non of you are talking of learning basic skills like mixing and pouring concrete or carrying bricks manually up three floors? I think it will be a good physical exercise, especially for our returnee brethren who have been missing the Nigerian action

I vote for DIY concrete casting for your Foundation

haa BABA, we go mix concrete with mixer, that screeder wont be a bad idea, the retail £300 I might just get one if I find a good source to ship it.I think the way it is now anyone with hands can mix concrete thanks to the humble mixer and the standard ration we have all learnt so far

ikp120:
Please how good is PVC
flooring compared to tiles?
Which one is cheaper?
Thinking of using it
throughout a house instead
of tiles

It will be cheaper but I do not think its durable like the humble tile.Have you thought of fire and heat?

EgunMogaji:
My prayer is that I don't move back to Nigeria and suddenly become lazy

trust me bross the heat wont let you U will wake up like a thief in the morning, 2 early lol

NL1960:
Chai, even for my poor village, you cannot get a tiler to lay tiles for N200/m2 not to talk of a city.

That is why we should try and get basic skilz of DIY ehe, why pay to tile a room if you can do it urself on saturday morning with a good bottle of non alchoholic rosey

rusher14:

Stop trying to be argumentative.

My first statement was simple and still is.

Nigerian banks hold as much as 1 trillion naira which at the moment is idling away.

Whatever the funds could and should be used for is defeated if all it does is idle away.

I think You now understand the point.
