Dnt take it personal.... I respect poly students for being sound practically..... Bt Dr's still a line drawn in btw....starting frm hw poly admit students.... I am nt sure of Dis, bt d popular notion is dat every Nigerian student dreams 1st of university... Den if it becomes difficult to get, poly comes in mind.... Just ask urself Y is dat.... So d discrimination did nt start at job level
The fact that the admission process to tertiary institute in Nigeria is a scam and flawed comes into mind,Depriving bright brains, in ways of cut off marks and school fees.there aint no equal opportunity,even if you have brains,Money might just be a limiting factor.

I want you to tell the courses in which engineering student are offering in university that polytechnic students didn't offer. for me, am a graduate of polytechnic and I have met my counterparts from university and discovered that they are just empty barrel. i sent my transcript to world education service in USA and the number of credit unit I offered is even more than B.sc. note I graduated with distinction in civil engineering. if u are graduate of civil engineering we can enter into academic duel.
I hope you start your own company instead of looking for work, Nigeria is Building,I envy you cos you chose the right Eng course, I wish I did that myself as start up in civil Eng is so easy than Mech Engin I did years back,Im now doing fastrack on civil Eng.good luck guy.

I live and work in Western Europe with my BSc and MSc degree in Engineering and I can tell you that what you call discrimination is everywhere. As a HND holder here, there is a limit you can reach in your career except you go for further studies which will qualify you to apply for a more superior job. The solution to the problem is not to get a HND degree or go for a BSc degree and use it to apply for a superior role combined with your work experience.
I disagree with you, I live and work in England,London to be specific,I have a Bsc in Mech Engineering, I have never for once brought out or being asked to produced my BSc,all I have shown is proof of experience, in form of references. Most.Most Job adverts here would rather say Entry stage BSc,so you get trained, so your BSc- experience equals low rank job no high end jobs.So what country in the west where you talking about again?
Car Talk › Re: The Reason Why That Your Tokunbo Car Keeps Overheating Here In Nigeria by erico2k2(m): 9:47am On Jul 05, 2015
Macmilla:
I tested the thermostat as described in the service manual by boiling it in water. It opened just before the water boiled and stayed open till the water cooled below about 82•
I don't know how to test the water pump in my car, but if it was the water pump, shouldn't the car still be overheating without the thermostat?
Its easy one, take the v belt of and check if there is a play in the pulley system of teh water pump, also check for leaks, the major failure of the water pump is a broken impeller or leaks through seals or damaged bearing, there are no serviceable parts in most.

BluePulse:
The discrimination is really un-called for. I'm a HND grad. I've worked in a bank where I was a team lead over BS.C holders due to my experience and how much I blv in myself.
Now I have Masters in Risk Management from an American Institution. I am currently heading a department of more than 5 BSc holders.
At the long run, I discovered its not by what u have, but how u see urself. I knew abt dis discrimination, but I was also determined that a BSc holder that'll topple me anywhere would be based on his work rate or creativity and not his degree. I don't blv in that degree and I dnt respect a man based on that. I respect based on 'workability' and 'creativity'.
Thats why in the west, no one give a crap about your degree, demonstrate you can do the work and the job is yours

Your spelling of "dangerous" is enough to show you off as a poly student. Many of them cant speak or write simple and correct English; just like you have displayed here. Now, which polytechnic did you graduate from? Your school's standard must have been very poor! "Dangerious"? Queen Elizabeth must hear this!
Nah man, the igwe must hear this.

My brother something is really happening in Nigeria which can only be seen when one ignores the word of Churches who can only preach the bible like the Pharisees but are blind to see what God is actually doing, even when they see it and know it they will not preach it because it will affect their income. just stand aloof from every denomination and you will see the truth about God. He is at work, and Christ promised that non of his sheep shall get lost, no matter what, just relax because is not of him that willeth, neither of him that runneth, but unto him the lord showeth mercy. This is the way of God.
Look Im a christian just as most of us on here.let me ask you a simple question which I know you wont have an answer, seen as today is sunday, youc an ask this question in church.what has anybody preaching from the bible done to help mankind in Nigeria,Africa? and indeed the rest of the world??/ huh huhThe people who developed medicine curing ailments today do not believe in anything,their hearts are as white as snow as all they do is help humans.

How many people in diaspora have accounts in Nigeria? How about the cost of wiring? At what rate do you exchange the forex in Naira?
almost everybody who traveled abroad in the past 8 years have accounts in Nigeria.Cos it will cost you more than a Milion to travel and that money is usually in a bank, I do not understand your question but as at today s rate its N336 to the pound in the local transfer market on the high street, it cost £30 to send £1000,

Perhaps so but you should know life isn't made for only one person to enjoy. The same system that brought Western Union, birth Paypal, Payoneer, Payza and co. Western Union can't handle it all. And the prize of WU is high. People that are making meagre money online won't subscribe to it and WU is not thinking of competition. Whereas, these companies only want to survive the climes by putting others out of business. No one has the monopoly of business entrepreneurial skills bro. Monegram is also there. I think WU have their own card too, do they? I'm not sure, perhaps others can shed light on it.
Nah trust me WU is dead when it comes to money transfer to Nigeria and west Africa, their target market is now the Caribbean sending cost is low but they will give you crippling exchange rate.,for the last five years, I cant remember anybody sending money to Nigeria via western union when you can wire direct to your bank account in Nigeria at highest rate same day delivery

honestly, u have said it all. That's part of foreign currency flow into the economy. Sometimes I wonder the type of mumus wey dey at the helm of affairs. I did a research concerning ebook and its impact on the economy; as at 2013 South Africa was generating close to $5 million dollars. Just on ebook, not other online businesses. That Paypal issue should be addressed and other platforms. Money is just going out, not coming in. How foolish that can be. These are little drops that makes mighty oceans.
I do not know your location but if you was in the west you will quickly realizability the amount of foreign currency floating 8 to N8 geriatric is alarming though restricted to the black market.these Marchants put western union out of business.

I know in Europe they do have laundry built in the kitchen. In the U.S, we normally have it in a separate room close to bedrooms. U.S homes have laundry rooms. I have never seen a house in the U.S with laundry in the kitchen. About doing laundry at 11pm, why would anyone do laundry at 11pm? Laundry is something normally done mostly on weekend mornings till afternoon.
yeh true, you know our houses in the Uk are smaller than the ones you guys have, we do not have space here grin grin, well as for the 11pm thing, you remember its in Nigeria Power comes mainly at night so if PHCN bring light at 1058pm, def the washing is going in 11pm, you ge tme now cheesy

As a matter of fact, the whole plan is flawed. The laundry room should not be anywhere near the kitchen or living room. The laundry room should be close to the bedrooms in the building. How can one bring out dirty clothes from the room and pass through the living room and kitchen before getting to the laundry room? He should scrapped the closet in-between the two small rooms and create a laundry room there. A closet can be re-created for the small room by cutting part of the kitchen space.
I agree with you to some extent however, the idea of laundry room close to the bedroom would be a no brainier, ie imagine the washing machine spinning to dry at 11pm, too noisy grin grin,if you check most new built houses in the west, washing machine is in the kitchen under the kitchen work. as for the *bringing dirty clothes through the living room to the laundry * you got me choking grin grin grin grin, I would like to think there is such thing as laundry basket.But on a serious note, he does need to do some changes, I will upload my plans here too, mayB you guys can check for fault as well cos two heads are way better than one.

here is the floor plan
there are two flaws in your floor plans Oga mufutau already spoted the lack of window in the master B/room WC, the next flaw is that your dinning area is far from your kitchen,it requires food to come out of kitchen unto living area then to dinning area.The reason open plan kitchen came i nto be was to address this issue,I recon you should adjust your plan so that the laundry room goes behind the kitchen and the kitchen is adjacent to the living room and just behind the dinning area, you can make it open plan with arch opening or just put a door to seal out smell and frying smoke,wh yah say grin grin grin

The major characteristics of piles are the pile diameters, the pile depths and the pile groups. And we have two types of piles commonly used here. Driven piles and In situ piles.
The characteristics and the types are determined based on the kind of structure coming on the foundation and the nature of the soil.
I once did some piles at a riverside near Agbowa after Ikorodu. The piles were average depth of 30m. For a load that is like a single storey. But a Kilometre from this site has good soil that won't require piles for such a superstructure.
In a place like lekki, there are areas that a 6 storey will require 30m depth pile. Some sites will require far less depth. Some will require far more. So piles are not 1+1=2. You run the necessary tests and analysis.
Would you require mechanical drills for these piles or is it done by hand?
