well done! it look nice. I Will take time to check your site out next week.
How is your family? Sorry I haven't contacted you in a while for granite. The guy who was giving you problem last time won't let me give you another granite supply. He just supplied some granite and stone dust. I promise you next time, he won't supply anything to me because he messed up already.

Dangote 42.5r @ N1,500 in my area today, ordered 50, need 50. Wish I had storage for more but my seller said she forsee even lower prices.

Friends, my budgeting joy is boundless cheesy
God bless you with this info. Last night, I told my cousin who normally supply me cement that cement is cheap now. He thinks I don't know what is going on outside because I always pay him 2,000 per bag when he has always been selling to me at 1,900 with 100 naira tip per bag. To my surprise this morning, he told me cement is 1,800 per bag now and only Dangote selling at 1,800 naira per bag. So to him, cement is only down by 100 naira. The guy is a thief. He knows I prefer Elephant cement, so he is still trying to tell me only Dangote selling it at 1,800 still and Elephant cement still selling at 1900 naira. I will get a Nairalander to supply me 250 bags first week in November.

The guy thinks he can keep ripping me off. He won't let anyone else supply materials to my site. He once warned a nairalander to stay away from the site and never to accept money from me to supply granite because he knows how to supply granite too. grin grin

security wise.. not really advisable, depend on the area though
Let your gate be 20ft high, closed with no view from outside, and your fence be 20ft high, nothing will stop a thief/armed robbers from entering your house. Robbers entering bank premises that are fortified with fence, and mobile police not to talk of homes. I don't see fence and gate as security at all.

A house with an open gate should feel more secure than a house with a sealed gate because an open gate allows everyone in the neighborhood to see any break-in attempt while a house with a sealed gate is more prone to robbery without neighbors knowing. If anyone jumps into my compound, my neighbors and passers-by should see what is going on in my compound.

Fence and gates have no deterrence to robbery. FACT!

PoliticsRe: Saraki's Travails, APC's Loss And PDP's Gain by FastShipping: 9:17pm On Sep 18, 2015
[s][quote author=TonyeBarcanista post=38147858]The travails of Senator Bukola Saraki and his faction in APC is a pointer that all is not well with the political structure of APC. There are two power blocs in the APC fighting for the soul of the party. On one side is President Buhari and Bola Tinubu backed, on the other side is the Senator Saraki led Likeminds rebels. Irrespective of where the pendulum swing, the GREATEST beneficiary will be the PDP if it get its act right.

The APC Crises and Travails of Saraki
The emergence of Saraki as the Senate President and Ekweremadu as the Deputy created a crack and bad blood within the ruling the party. Saraki's insistence on 'appointing' his preferred candidates for the Senate's Principal offices instead of the party candidates was a move that set a brick-wall against ANY reconciliation. Then came Saraki's ongoing travails with the Code of Conduct Bureau that is likely to sweep him(which is his business).

APC's Loss
It is no doubt that Bukola Saraki controls the APC political structure of Kwara state. He has the unalloyed loyalty of Governor Fatah Ahmed and other state officials. He also has the loyalty of NASS contingents from Kwara state. Outside Kwara state he enjoys support of his co-APC rebels majorly in the North Central. This advently means that a faction of APC Chieftains loyal to Saraki will be at loggerhead with leadership of the party over the 'treatment' of their comrade. The crack in the APC means a shrink in the party structure. Recall that APC could only win through marginal advantage of less than 3million votes. This crack literally mean that APC structures has weaned especially in Kwara state and other little areas where the rebellious APC legislators and chieftains have influence. I am very optimistic that there's going to be more fall-out among party faithfuls. APC Chieftains may succeed in cutting short Saraki and his co-rebels ambitions but they also have helped in decimating portions of their structure.

PDP Must Be Prepared And Be Careful:
PDP need to manage themselves and must put machinery in place to manage the forthcoming convention of the party. It must not afford to mismanage every pre and post convention events. More importantly the PDP must take advantage of absorbing young people and redefine itself with the knowledge that they will be going into 2019 against a divided ruling APC (hopefully, there will be more cracks in the coming months/years).

APC Internal Problem Isn't Unexpected:
On April 02 (about 24 hours after Buhari was declared winner of the March 28 Presidential election), I did an article Titled Arise O' PDP, The Future Is Bright. In the said article, I anticipated this crack within the APC though I never knew that it will come 'too soon'. I shall conclude this piece with excerpt from that article.





May God Bless PDP
Power To The People!

This country will never progress. It will never progress when you have courts restraining police, EFCC, ICPC, and law enforcement personnel in general from performing their duties.

The courts should allow this case to be argued in court. The court can then dismiss the case during preliminary hearing if the case is frivolous.

Nigerian courts are threat to Nigerian democracy.

Thank you Sir.

N140k. When the installers finish with the mess of planting it and stuff I'll repaint it to a nicer color.
It is a lovely gate. Black color on it seems the best to me. A lot better than the multi-color gates I have seen here several times. I am impressed with your taste.

On the wire mesh and plastic for concrete, the professionals at your site are in better position to advice you on what is needed. If they have told you to use mesh and plastic, just go for it. If they already told you not to use any because they add no value, just listen to them.

Professionals who are on ground know better.

TonyeBarcanista:
That the card reader captured 290k voters doesn't translate to ONLY '290k' voters were accredited. I'm well aware that majority of electorates voted without card reader due to mal-function of the reader. There is NO section within the Electoral act that nullifies voting without the reader. The petitioners are yet to prove their allegation of electoral malpractice. It will boil down to forensic analysis and checks whether the votes were inflated or not. IF inflated, the tribunal will CANCEL the identified inflated votes and examine whether a re-run in the affected areas will be able to affect the result. I make BOLD to state that the APC petition is DEAD on arrival and an exercise in futility
Just as you promised Buhari election success was dead in Southwest. cheesy

America's are daft at war.
They achieved death and destruction of enemies' homeland. Lives and properties all gone. Rebuilt of those countries won't be less than 120 years. That's what U.S can do to Russia too.

Just to educate you, U.S prosecuted Iraq and Afghanistan wars with fractions of their military might. Only B52, one flight carrier, few helicopters and about 400k troops prosecuted those two wars. Iraq and Afghanistan were destroyed in less than a week before ground troops even got there. grin grin

PoliticsRe: From Russia with love by FastShipping: 3:55pm On Sep 13, 2015
Mr. Op who loves to rant about the Arab affairs and American "military weakness", my advice to you is to stop the foolery. On what planet do you reside? Hating America shouldn't make you lose your senses. You have the right to Hate but you should also be able to see clearly when you are crying and have tears in your eyes.

Russia can never, I repeat that Russia can never sustain a long-haul war. Go and learn what Afghanistan did to Russia. Is there any country that can sustain two wars at the same time in a span of 13 years? American military is built to sustain 50 year war on five fronts. America is the gentle giant of military might. Putin knows this very well. When is Putin going to try to engage one NATO nation in a conflict?

If ever a time happens that Russia ends up in military conflict with the U.S, I rather be on the U.S side because Russia is no match to U.S in terms of arsenal. All Russia can boast of are nuclear arsenal that the entire NATO ready to unleash on Russia if Russia ever try to use it.

The U.S has refrained from showing chest muscle like Putin has been doing in the last 12 years. The Americans know what they have and won't brag about it. Putin can keep boasting and keep showing his insecurity and inferiority. Displaying weapon upgrades doesn't mean you have more arsenal than the U.S.
