London


or is that london , osapa london, I think you are trying to be funny.or just being rather smart.

1st class degree, ok,, congrats.i really dont want to get into any long discussion over these trash bins.because its a no brainer.
we are the laughing stock of the world.in fact as i mentioned earlier we are now waiting for the annoucement of the importation of the 'great bin man' from east london to help our local bin men.

lol

@labiyemmy

a lot of guys here are trying to point out the obvious, we do not,and should not  be importing waste bins,there is too much poverty in the land.nothing is working.They wanted more jets,our president is currently in the US with over 100 people on a day trip to the UN.

The government continues to waste money on items that add no value to our system and unless you live here,you cant understand.1B would go along way in terms of soft loans for our unemployed graduates.One of my nephews just finished his youth service and guess what, no work.A second class graduate in engineering.yet the only thing our great decision making body (FEC) can propose is to import trash bins from the UK.

Guy, if its tongue in cheek humor,its not funny.Just accept the fact that Nigeria is a mess.down here decisions are only made to benefit the decision maker,in fact i will not be surprised if mrs sambo imported the bins herself on behalf of her husband.

the bottomline is that FEC should be thinking about how to better the lot of nigerians and not their own pockets,

thanks

@labiyemmy

the point you are missing is that with 1B naira,many more jobs could be created,there are local companies in nigeria would could benefit from that.they could be encourage to produce the bins.and i am sure they could do the job,maybe not as efficiently as the british bins.but nonetheless they could have been useful.


by importing the bins money would be leaving the country,which we can ill afford at this moment and again the bins have been overpriced.Abuja is not london.abuja does not add a cent to the national treasury whereas london adds millions to the british economy.

thanks

i guess the next contract would be to  import a 'bin man'  from east london to help train the locals.Obviously the bin man would be lodged at the hilton nuga hotel and given a huge salary,

what a bunch of fools, and this man wants to rule us for 4 more years,


doomed

@xterra2

take it easy, typing too fast is an act,

lol

I really blame some of the parents,the wise ones send their kids to better schools while some employ private tutors.But unfortunately most dont bother,they spend less on their kids,they dont even go through the kids books to get acquanted with what their kids are doing in school.
The education system in nigeria is a shambles,it is really a mess.I had the opportunity to sit down with one of my nephews who attends one of the local schools in surulere.What i saw,what i read was incredible.i had to pay for a private lession centre for the kid,but still he couldnt pass his exams.His parents on the other hand felt i was too hard on the kid.This guy failed english and maths and could only pass agric science yet he wants to study chemical engineering, imagine , even his attitude is poor.

he is in ss2,so next year he will be taking the weac exams or what ever exams they actually do now.Does he stand a chance,well,there is no need to seek a soothsayer here,he is pretty much doomed.But if his parents had been wise they would have been encouraging me, instead they sit of their asses and watch their own child drown in his own ineptitude.My kids are doing very well,because i spend the time with them and obviously i am very tough with them,whether we accept this or not,education is key,it gives one the chance to get a better life.We cant all be politicians or contractors,some of us have to sweat for a living.

pity

why should i lie,seaside estate almost shares a fench with co-operative villas,from my land i can also see the houses in co-operative villas.

anyway it doesnt really matter,those who are buying in okun ajah need to be aware of the risks,and if you are serious about buying plot in the estate i can easily get you the contact person

f

kai, wen is waziri going, she really needs a rest from all her inaction and shouting

'About 10yrs ago Okun Ajah was selling for N50,000-N80,000K.Same 10 yrs ago a plot of land at Badore in Ajah,Off Cooperative Villa, was going for between 250-300k. Today a plot of Land at Badore(i.e within the gazette) is going for between N5million to N7million. Note there is a lagoon front at the end of Badore.

this is definitely not true,i just bought a plot of land at seaside estate in badore and it only cost me 2.5M, Another guy in the same estate had 3 plots to sell and he was insisting on 3M.He called me a couple of days begging me to buy them off him for 2.5M per plot.All checks were performed,mine had a GC and it was verified at alausa,

The water level is a real issue,you only need to read the latest warning from the lagos state government,

people can really negotiate now and get better deals,you just have to bargain hard.

@moneyluv

very good point,cant imagine what will happen when the water level starts to rise,you can see the bar beach problem and those expensive houses.Prices have certainly come down.

thanks

this is a nice discussion.i bought 4 plots of land at elebu about 3yrs ago for 350k per plot,now the land is going for about 900k, it is a nice area to live in ,a lot of the people who were renting in oloyole phase one actually bought land there also.The private schools in ibadan compare well with most of the private schools in lagos but at a relatively cheaper price,

my opinion is that for someone who wants to raise their kids in a civil peaceful environment then elebu is a good choice,there is also a link road to the toll gate.albeit half completed.This was the road oga jonathan came to open.pity he didnt bother seeing the whole road.

in terms of class of people,it is purely middle class and a sprinkle of omonile villagers.and a lot of returnees for europe and the us, a lot of the P&G guys also live there well, they also have a landlords association which i call a gathering of like minds.

for those still thinking of starting an SAP based career, the future just got a bit brighter,
for the discerning mind:::

SAP today announced its preliminary financial results for the second quarter 2010. The company reported growth of 16% in software and software-related service revenues.

For the second quarter 2010, IFRS software and software-related service revenues were €2.258 billion (2009: €1.953 billion), an increase of 16%. IFRS software revenues were €637 million (2009: €543 million), an increase of 17%. IFRS operating margin came in at 26.7% (2009: 24.9%), an increase of 1.8 percentage points.

SAP expects full-year 2010 non-IFRS software and software-related service revenue to increase in a range of 9% - 11% at constant currencies (2009: €8.2 billion). SAP’s business, excluding the contribution from Sybase, is expected to contribute 6 - 8 percentage points to this growth. The Company expects the full-year 2010 Non-IFRS operating margin to be in a range of 30% - 31% (2009: 27.4%) at constant currencies.

thanks

felix

wow , dont want to sound pessimistic,but prices are going down, 2.5 is too much for ogombo

40M?, are you for real

please where exactly is this place,any landmarks to identify the exact location of the land.//

thanks

where exactly in badore is this land.which documents do you have,any gazette,certified copy of the survey for alausa checking,


thanks

i guess as a honda driver i just have to add to this thread,

I bought the latest honda two years ago,that was when it came out.The journey to my eventually buying this car was quite interesting.I probably read every forum and thread on the latest honda,it had great reviews.
The cars i was going to choose from where toyota camry,maxda 626 and of course the honda account.I was actually driving a company hyundai sonata at the time, I hated it,

The toyota camry is excellent on smooth straight highways,got a nice interior,plain body shape,nice fuel consumption, but absolutely no pickup.Taking corners was bad,you could actually feel the tail spin.and also most of the people driving  toyotas are older boring folks,

The honda on the other hand was good at pickups.you actually felt the zeal,the roar of the engine and the power.bends also not too great,a slight tail spin whilst the exterior looked alot better than toyotas, Fuel consumption was moderate,if not good.
But i really loved the honda,it looks pretty.great curves and it is a drivers car.so i will definitely recommend the honda , the couple is absolutely gorgeous,the v6 is the car to buy,

thanks

fe

where exactly is your land

where exactly is peaceland estate,is this a private estate or not.do you have pictures and which documents are available, also
how far is this estate from ajah junction and the cost of each plot

thanks

the surveyor we hired works a alausa,he is a government surveyor ,since the woman selling the land didnt have a simple survey,the guy brought his own equipment.and did the charting,we paid him 20k for that,

the result of the check is that the land is under acquisition, FULL STOP.,.,,

You can get a SURVEYOR and pay the nominal fee of 20k AND then post the results here,


name dropping means jack to me.i am from lagos island and this is not the first piece of land i am attempting to buy,i have a property in co-operative villas and we have properties on lagos island .isale eko,and other parts of lagos,


there are too many agents to deal with.,we currently are checking out properties at the moment, all have at least a deed of assignment while two have the c and o,
i follow lawyers post ds diligently and i do my checks thoroughly,


chikena , end of story,

we have checked the land at badore, royal estate to be precise,and that land has been acquired by the government,, it will be a good idea if you first check out the lands you advertise here,, we are sick of agents who just chase a fast buck.The woman who owns the land could not even provide the simple survey.a deed of assignments means absolutely nothing in relation to land that has been acquired by the lagos state government.,

a crying shame

sorry for the late reply, are there any more plots

with all the documentation and hidden costs this land might actually be about 1.2M,

secondly it takes about 1.5hrs from VGC to the land,

it might be better if you announce the whole package, this should include all the documentation fees,

thanks

@alutaa

@sappiel (f)
sorry,i am not an SD consultant, pity though it seems to sound interesting.the only functional stuff i actually know is based on liveCache,im sure the manufacturing guys would know what i am talking about,SCM, ppds, snp, DP, planning for the future,

f

markos has answered that question very well, sdn has come along way and most of the guys who answer the questions posted are real developers,a couple senior support colleagues.
so i am not sure another thread would be helpful,

thanks
