Yet when the see refreshment and entertainment as an expense in a company's account, they will want to add it back to profit and tax it. Here, they want N1.4bn as entertainment for themselves. I have worked with FIRS several times, representing clients. They offer you just table water and ground nut when you come to their office for audit.

Our standards are terribly low in this country. Even other African countries could put up far more quality build than these roads I am seeing here. Why cant we do solid things for once? These governors travel abroad and see well marked roads with covered drainage but will come hear and commission sub standards infrastructures.

Ok o. I don talk my own.

oz4real83:
You are talking about per capita income. Germany that u put in number 15 has a far bigger economy that most of the countries you listed. But because Germany has a larger population than these countries, when u divide the population by the total income/GDP, u find that the per capita income of Germany is smaller than them. Smaller per capita income doesn't mean Germany is poorer than them, it is just the population that is larger.

The OP is right. Wealth has to be measured per capita. Nigeria is the biggest economy in Africa but when you situate it with our huge but very unproductive population, it becomes the poverty capital of the world.

Nigeria economy is 25th largest in the world but when you consider the poor economic development indices and the unproductive population, even the 50th placed economy is far better than her. GDP alone is not a proper indicator of wealth but rather GDP per capita.

[quote author= post=99872274]Anambra is not Delta, Anambra is commercial and industrial state with bigger population than Delta, Anambra is building Cargo and passenger airport, Asaba airport is just passenger airport[/quote]It is not about been a commercial city. It is still about the mentality of the people. An average Onitsha/ Anambra man is very price sensitive, especially the traders. They will rather use GUO at 15k than Arik air at 45k to fly from Lagos to Onitsha and return.

Anybody living in Onitsha will gladly fly to Asaba than using that Umuleri Airport with potential armed robbery menace on the airport road.

The siting of that airport in that area is a big minus. I come to Onitsha regularly and usually land in Asaba before moving to Onitsha. Why would I want to use an airport situated miles from Onitsha?

Considering the way people in that area behaves, I fear the security situation along that airport road. Airport road is usually targeted by robbers to rob people going or coming from the airports.

I am not hating o but if you ask me, the money should have been used to fix all the bad roads in Onitsha and Nnewi and give the cities a facelift in terms of beauty and livibility.

Onitsha is still far from what a modern city should be and Nnewi is even worse, with dusty roads and decrepit drainage systems.[code][/code]

Parents should also watch their children well to understand their emotional state of minds, tolerance and whether they will be able to withstand depression, insults and abuses.

Removal of the decking wood starts.........

Men, I love the way you used beams to support that decking without pillars in the centre despite the big sizes of the space. I hate seeing columns in the middle of the living room.

Onitsha has always been a heartland of lawless. People are there because of the money. If not, they would have disappeared. Very crude, disorganised, crowded, polluted and uncivil.

Oga don't say what you don't know.
These lights last up to 3years.
This particular type doesn't require the general maintenance you know of (unless batt3 changes).

They are very very reliable

Are you the project contractor?

Where is DJ s Switch? She is now chilling at council flat in Ontario being protected by the Canadian government as an asylum immigrant.

Na her own better pass. I hardly take Nigerian youths serious in any undertaken. Just flash some cash before them and they will loose their senses, including the so called human right crusaders.

What I saw with SUG in the university was something else. Even our departmental president then had to set up a bar joint in school using the department funds.

Corruption everywhere!

Tufiakwa! Nigeria and mediocrity. Surulere is now the waste bin of Lagos state with dirts everywhere. Poor drainage system. Let the masses continue to worship these leaders as I know that some people will be here praising and defending them.

These solar lights do not last up to six months for lack of care and maintenance . Solar system requires constant care and monitoring but we are in a country where maintenance culture is on recess.

He shouldn't disappoint us with any corruption charges. Amos Adamu was a big flop in FIFA Executive council.

He disappointed a lot of people after being found guilty of corruption.

Please don't soil your hands. Guard it with all diligence. Tell them that Nigerians could be trusted with public office.

This is why I keep kwayet.

I’m very minimalistic so for me “less is more”. Not really a fan of too much flash. Am I watching TV or a trance inducing light show?

Grand Khandi, you know, I borrowed your words in that last paragraph you quoted.

If it is not simple, then it is not worth it for me. By the way, these pictures are breath-taking. The problem is getting the person with the right tools and detailing to replicate the internet pictures. It is always difficult.

What you ordered Vs. What you got always has a wide difference. Any way, there are still fantastic guys doing beautiful stuffs.

Interior Design is a field on it own... Professional in building just dazzle Into it base on client's specifications.. At the end .. it may look good to the client, but not pleasant to general public... At this stage, who is to be blamed?..

My Two Cent... Engr. Gbenga

You are right. I am not an interior designer but once I see an eye - catching design, I know.

I could as well create my own design from scratch.

n3xt is excellent with minimal designs - both interior and exterior. The more lean a POP or TV stand is, the more appealing ambience it radiates.

Well, each to his own. What you may consider grotesque may be a pride to someone else.

Meanwhile, I have my eyes on this two.

Where did you get the panels in pic 1 below? I normally source mine from China.

Well done and good job!

Dont forget to drop your good stuffs in kobocity.com
That’s my main shop address and I have a lot of clients who are ready to buy from you and many others who offer good stuffs at the most affordable price.

Less is always beautiful. I will take minimal decoration over cluttered and complicated one anytime - see how simple that TV stand looks. Add some greenery there like live green leaves plants in a pot and the place will look extraordinary to those that loves beauty, calmness and nature.

My age mate - But she looks older than me sha

Nigeria is just a heap of human flesh without any brain. We hardly coordinate our governance properly and there is so much misplacement of priorities in all spheres of life.

I fear the outlook of the country in the years to come with this explosion in population with diminishing opportunities.

Fine design. At least, not like the usual Nigerian building design. Contemporary architecture should be encouraged and not all those bad looking buildings.

Who appropriated for the money to be spent? Is it his personal money? In UK, elected officials cannot even make a pledge talk more of giving out money.

All money spent must be appropriated for and approved. Here, governors will be dolling out millions of Naira to people and people will be commending it.

Government is not a charity organisation irrespective of the good intentions of giving out the money. That's the same way they take out money from the coffers without checks and balances.

And one Senior Manger in First bank, who is my friend, was arguing with me yesterday, defending Ibori because he is from the same Oghara village with Ibori.

Nigeria's problems transcends our politicians. The citizens thinking is just too wack for my liking. Citizens here includes educated and non educated.

How could a responsible person defends such massive loot?

GOD Almighty will have to bring back Sodom and Gomorrah and apologize to them if he does not pour his Wrath on this Generation

Wickedness and terrible heartlessness all over the Land!

Nigerians and invocation of God's wrath? God is not human and He does not think they way we do. If God were to be human, everything would be destroyed. I still believed that we have a very merciful and forgiven God.

Lets stop asking God to pour out His anger. He does that at His own time. If He should do as we want Him, those calling on Him to pour His anger may not be spared also.

Euro news - 414

Nigerian youths and corruption and they will be pointing fingers at politicians.

Some will even come here and be requesting for guide on how to manipulate their date of births and some stupid "good" nairaland will be offering the useless advise on how to beat the system, get forged documents and proceed to JAMB.

The lady finished the British Royal Family and the British system.

She gave it to them hot! The Buckingham palace is preparing a response to all that she and her husband said.

Imagine Harry saying that he left UK to US with his family for the sake of his mental health.

Most Nigerians would come here now to bash her for bringing enemity to the Royal family. It was quite courageous of her to have taken that decision.

The British system, press and main stream news have ways of making one go insane if they come after you.

Just Imagine a Palace official saying only God knows how black Archer will look like even before the innocent boy was born.

gnykelly:
Perth is even far from the rest of Australia. hope you still have access to go back cos buharinomics is coming for you.

Not the Australian Perth but Scottish Perth in UK. There is also a city called Perth in Scotland, Uk

These men made my stay in UK worthwhile. Once bored and needed to connect home, I just went to youtube and search for Codewit. It has all the legends music.

Lonliness made me to return back home after my masters in 2010.

After getting a caregiver job in Perth with accommodation, the job was so monotonous that I felt I was in prison. The hourly rate for the job was okay with free meals and accommodation, I was still missing the get together with former colleagues in Lagos, the TGIF and the weekend get together, the travel to my village for celebrations. . I love village events and celebrations. Those from the East will understand.

If you are a hyper social type of person, adjusting living abroad will be difficult for you. Nigeria is still far from what I would have love her to be but I wouldn't trade in my happiness, social life, freedom, status, family, power and career aspirations for abroad.

At least, I am not doing badly here. I can still afford to provide myself with 24hours electricity, have access to paid servants, go anywhere, visit my lovely extended family members (the good ones), create a future for myself, have my own house and definitely hope for the best in the future.

For those that wants to stay in Nigeria, you should mind how you consume negative news about Nigeria. The negative news have ways of weighing one down. So, sieve the kind of news about Nigeria you hear or watch or else, you would loose hope

Each to his or her own, but my life and success lies here.

Nigerian car dealers ehh! They started with all these nonsense names.

But their lips dey sweet coated. If you no shine your eyes, you go fall mugu for their hands and na salvaged car you go buy as good tokunbo with clean titles.

Raysleek:
Her only crime was being in a school without proper accommodation in the campus for students hence the need to ply motorcycles that aren't regulated hence they carry 2 passengers on the highway. Rest on dear girl, I'm sorry they failed you, we failed you.

I disagree - the number one crime now is being a Nigerian.

How many does a pack or carton contain?

can this still be done on plastered wall? I heard it could only be done on a sand Crete - that is block work

We can not say anything about the quantities because there mechanical drawings

Yes Topsy, my concern mainly is on the unit price. We know how to handle quantities.

Na US sure pass for them now.

Some Nigerians are planning to show themselves as gay and lesbians to attract the Biden's sympathy. A lot of folks will get visa base on this LGBT thing.

Just stage your arrest as a gay person and watch the US consulate come to your rescue. This is another package guys are rehearsing.
