Oga pls tell us what are u using all this bitcon for. I have been doing some research on it though and since I have ppl selling it,i want to know the real thing about it before i start on it .
*For buying stuffs online (Lot of Merchants accept bitcoins)
*For e Trading just like Forex
*For Money Laundering grin (It's untraceable and does not have any biz with any financial institution in the world) Imagine if Patience Jonathan had all those seized money in bitcoins, EFCC go sweat for nyash to find am lol

It's only good for temporary office complex.... where u can disassemble the containers and move it to another site.. Hence it's a temporary shelter

my question too.

Cc millz404
500k is too small for one storey container house...

The cost of 40ft container is about 470k
The cost of 20ft container is about 300k

Cost of hiring a crane for a day could cost up 50k
Insulation of the container and earthing of electrical wires
Painting with Marine coating paint (Very expensive)

This container house is expensive compared to building a conventional house.

Secondly,the space is limited, a cargo container isn't that big.can 2 or 3 containers be joined together to create more space
Yes.. even 10 containers can be joined for more rooms..

But wont the container rust as time goes on.
It won't if proper attention is focused on the corrosion aspect...

1. If there's any sign of rust, it should be immediately chipped off with a chipping hammer
2. Marine coating paint only should be use (First Prime the surface before using the marine coating paint)

Marine coating paint is used for painting ship's hull because ships works in a very harsh environment, where almost half of its body is submerged in salt water for years.

If such paint is used for painting this container house, it will last for 8-10years with no issues of corrosion.

Since the paint is VERY EXPENSIVE, I doubt those Nigerian designers would employ it's usage for the container house
PropertiesRe: Houses Built Using Cargo Containers (Photos) by fashrola(m): 6:37am On Oct 02, 2016
doskie:
electric shock too.
Earthing of all electrical wiring will minimise electric shock..... Even ships are made of steel and all wirings are earthed..

What you should be afraid of is corrosion... Cos the cargo container should be painted with marine coating paint or a sacrificial anode should be attached to fight corrosion

For the heat factor... the container house will be heavily insulated to absorb heat.. also you can install extractor in every rooms, and it is best to install Solar power system to enjoy this container house

Many of u still don't get what is happening. Skrills and other e currency activities may be limited just like PayPal, it is very possible those using skrills to transfer money to their dorm account may have that stopped. These banks simply dont have the dollars to fund these e currency activities and the Nigerian govt plus the banks are looking for ways to cut down drastically the demand for dollars in the system.
That's why bitcoins is the best... CBN nor FG does not have access or can't stop bitcoin operation.... But Skrill and neteller might just remove Nigeria from their list

Blackberry phones are affordable compared to other brands, while most of the flagship phones r expensive is due to the current FX rate to USD

Whatsapp can still work on all OS 10 blackberry since it can accept android apps

Blackberry also have a fully android phone: blackberry Priv, DTEK50 and the latest one to be launched DTEK60

Software and services?

Who uses anything related to bb these days?
RIM (Blackberry) provides software services to Apple (iOs 10 for example) Ford, Sony,Samsung, Mercedes Benz, US-German-Russian Military and lot of Security and business companies in the world (I think the software biz is more lucrative than building hardwares hence their decision to outsource hardware function to an Indonesian partner)

So the Indonesian firm will still build blackberry phones for RIM but will share some certain percentage with RIM

WhiskeyTangoFox:
I totally disagree with u. Is dis how we intend to rid our society of corruption? So without gathering facts and evidence, u call for the arrest of a supposed whistle blower without any investigation carried out to support or deny his claims? This case has the potential to shine light into the NASS which most leaders have said is submerged in corruption. Have u for a split second asked urself "are d leaders of the house trying really hard to hide something or suppress the truth knowing they will be fully indicted if revealed? Think for a second, Jibrin lives a very comfortable life (albeit from ill gotten wealth), even if he lost a leadership role in the house, do u think he'll go thru dis episode dat myt see him jailed and his assets stripped jst out of a personal vendetta for d speaker and other mentioned officials? I dnt know who has a clean record in dis country, bt that's not enof reason to disregard allegations of dis magnitude. If there are elements of truth no matter how small in jibrins allegations, then I think dis case shld b taken more seriously than it is. Even if guilty of frivolous activities in the past, Jibrin can still be used to cleanse the national assembly and develop bills that'll promote transparency in the dealings of the NASS. In other developed countries, whistleblowers are protected, rewarded in different ways and paraded to d public as heros so to encourage pple that possess sensitive materials to bring down looters and criminals to come forward. Pls bear in mind, I'm not for or against Jibrin or the speaker. I jst want the truth to be revealed and for the masses to know wot really happened, obviously with the country's interest at heart. Either way, I sense a huge scandal underneath all of this and I think it's high time lawmakers are made to understand dat the laws were also created for them to abide to and for defaulters to be penalised regardless of wealth, status or resources acquired. If either or both are convicted, it can only be for d good of the country and her citizens bt until then, let's not discredit any information brought forward cos we think the informant isn't 100% a saint.
Well done bro for this great post!!!

pedel:
Not everything made in China is fake or inferior. Those made in China junks You See on the roads and shops all over the country were made to the specification of the money hungry importers who brought them into the country.
Blame the government who refuse to test the quality of products being imported into the country.
When it comes to shipbuilding there's a standard procedure from laying of the keel till the finished product..

There are classification societies like ABS, Bureau Veritas, Nippon, Lloyd's register that makes sure the ship builder follows the standard while building a ship and their supervisor is always present till the end of construction of the ship and during the sea trial too.

Building a ship in China does not make it inferior... cos in China there are lot of shipyards owned by Norwegian, Dutch, German companies... like Damen Shipyards in China

Even South Africa builds ships too (I know you are surprised)

People may ask why Nigerians choose to build their ships in China..

Well some Oil Moguls choose to construct their ships in China due to nature of contract (might be short term)

Why would I build my ship in Norway that might cost me up to $600m when I can build that same ship and quality in China for $400m and recoup my investment and still make more profits within the short term of my contract. That's why in Nigeria coastal water almost 60% of ships are build in China or Singapore and are all durable.

But the machinery are not from China though... a China-build vessel might be carrying a Wartsila Main engine and a caterpillar generator and other different brands for ancillary

- "...and on her way to join the Nigerian Navy fleet" Wish her safe journey? Which man would be bringing her home?

" enroute Nigeria will pay ‘port calls’ on some ports of friendly nations before arriving Nigeria" Why would she pay calls to other ports when Nigeria is waiting? Is that how she would be flirting?

" arrive Nigeria in the first week of November 2016." So she would flirt from now to November shocked

This government sef angry
* Using 'she' is simply how the English language works with ships. This is just the way it is. There is no female repression involved... it has been used for ages.


* It's normal for a ship to visits other ports while on a voyage and the reasons includes:

1. Victualing (Food and water provisions for crew onboard)
2. Fuel Oil Bunkering
3. Medical for a very sick crew (In a very serious case)
4. Machinery maintenance (some machinery might break down while on voyage and may need the vessel to be at port for repairs and services)
5. To discharge cargoes (in a case of a container or general cargo ships, tankers and LNG ships)
6. To discharge sewage or dirty oil (in a case of a small vessel whose retention tank or bilge holding capacity is not large)


*From China to Nigeria takes weeks depending the knots of the vessel is making and the sea condition too.


60% of ships (PSV, AHTS, Tug boats in Nigeria coastal water are constructed in China)

FamilyRe: My Wife Spat On My Face This Morning, What Should I Do? by fashrola(m): 12:37am On Sep 13, 2016
Bros make she no slit ur throat while deep asleep ooo... I've heard several cases of murder caused by women because of disagreement in marriage ranging from infidelity, Not giving her attention, having a child with another mistress outside their marital home..

I'll advise you not to sleep in the same room with her for now (If at all you have separate rooms) Give her the silent treatment and "if she get sense at all"... She'll come back for forgiveness (Cos she's your wife)

And also from my own point of view.. are you really sure you are giving your wife that attention she needs or you are more concerned about your game console which I know can be very addictive and annoying to a lot of ladies.. Cos there's a point I had some issues with my girlfriend cos of too much "fingering" of my smartphone anytime she comes to my apartment..

Divorce is really a bad thing especially when you guys are just married for about a year... You swore for better and for worst... that's a heavy vow which some couple ignores (Blame it on jet age)

If she doesn't comes for forgiveness (For spitting on your face and saying such hideous statement), then you have to talk to her and give her the last warning to wake her from her reality and also i'll advise you to inform her parents first before taking any drastic action; probably they might talk some sense into her skull.

Moreover, I can't predict whether you abused her physically (Since everyone wanna appear as a saint online) before she made that statement... sometimes when a person is pushed to the wall... he/she can carry out an hideous act you could ever think of.. and probably her only weapon of defence was why she spat on your face and the statement (Though I'm not justifying her actions)

So brother... don't take any action you'll regret later in your life.. All you need is some time and space to think on how to make your marriage work.. trust me a lot of men are going the same or worst case than you.. but what define them as a man is the way they handle the most difficult time with their spouse.

So fix it!!!

5. Etinan. This area belongs to Akwa Ibom State. It
is thought to be the richest in oil production.
It’s famous for crafting and agriculture as well.
Besides, it’s the most peaceful territory in the
Western Nigeria.
These are the richest and most prosperous regions of
the country. There used to be more of them,
however, particular factors, like Civil War, have
affected them.
Now you know a bit more about the politics in
Nigeria and the principles of country division. There
are many LGAs in this state. They are not equally
developed. There exist those, which are wealthier
than the others are. It is caused by various factors.
Natural resources are one of the key reasons.
Etinan? How? undecided .. I hope this is a typo sha

LGA with no Oil wells? (Never heard of any)
LGA with dilapidated roads?
LGA where lands are not sold to foreigners? (How do you expect such place to develop)
LGA with no good supply of electricity and potable water?

The only thing Etinan LGA had was Peacock Paint factory (Best Paint industry in Nigeria in the 80's) which is in a state of comatose.
