They should hand it over to the Catholic church.

In the East, any thing, be it school or hospital that are not managed by the Catholic church or Church of Nigeria, Anglican communion is a scam.

All other churches there have not proven their capacity and capability to manage anything.

How people fall for yahoo yahoo is still a puzzle to me. For the business to be moving shows that magas dey fall be that.

Like joke,like joke, Laycon go win this show.

Efe episode is loading. The crowd will always align with the victim and the most vulnerable. That incidence has pushed up Laycon's rating.

Abeg, na man you be. Period! You have been advised to compete with men and you refused. Her testosterone level is higher than some men's testosterone. Imagine!

I know Africans with their emotional sentiments will start attacking the court. Before you accuse the court of racism or bias, please watch her in action. You will even confirm say na man be this.

The story may not be valid. No school name or anyone involved. No location, country......Hollywood story...sell it to Netflix

You dey mind all these fabricated stories on nairaland. The story is not genuine. Agreed that things are going wrong in our secondary schools these days, but this story no just add up.

flekky07:
is it good for external wall too?

My dear, If I tell you say I know, na lie - My knowledge of building na from this thread and asking questions. I don't know if Satin paint is used for exterior walls. Note that Satin is not a brand but a product type. The building gurus in this thread will definitely intervene.

coldcandy:
If you are building your house to live in yourself, you can tile only wet areas.
But if u are building for renting, oga, just tile every where else u will use all the rent the tenant paid to carry out renovation after he/she has gone. Some tenants are pigs in human shape.

You are right! Nigerian tenants could mess up apartments big time.

omanzo02:
Nigerians are fond of wasting tiles in name of protecting the wall from water and moisture, it's no longer rocket science that satin based paints are specially made for kitchen, bathroom or wet areas, you can clean them....unless they don't exist in Nigeria.

Correct! You got the name, Satin. I had to ask them the type of paint and they said satin. I deliberately stained the wall with my liquid polish to see what happens after cleaning and the wall appeared neat like that after wiping out the black polish on the wall. You wont even noticed that I applied polish on the wall where I cleaned.

The guest house cleaner is also on top of his job. Every morning, he looks out for stains and uses wet neat white clothes to wipe out any dirt on the wall. But mehn, PH people dey hear am with this back soot of a thing. If you touch any smooth surface, na so black your hand go turn to. Touch doors or car surfaces outside, you will pick black ash.

Which makes me to ask “Must we tile all the kitchen or just the wet areas?”

If yes, why?

I didn’t do that in my personal build and Buhari has not arrested me and I’ve never had to complain about using very expensive tiles.

I have the dry and wet areas in the kitchen.

Pic 1 & 2 shows the wet and the dry area.

My brother, too much sense no go kill you. That was what came to my mind. I was in a guest house in PH and that beautiful expensive tile was only done on the wet side of the kitchen. The whole kitchen was painted in an immaculate shiny and beautiful white paint.

Same with the bathroom. Only the bath area (cubicle) and wash hand basin had these beautiful Spanish carrara tiles. You don't need to tile the whole wall. It is common in Nigeria. Check out houzz website, you hardly see tiles on the whole kitchen.

Men, I will use that tile for my area but just in a small wet place. The other places will be painted. That's why I smooth-plastered my kitchen and bathroom so that I would have option painting most part. I am not going to tile the whole space.

Na wah o. Man go sell his first born just to tile floor o.

My brother, even though I like sleek and fine things, this would be expensive for Me considering the current situation of things. But those tiles looks good any way.

7500 per square meter and 11,500 per carton

Danboruba! This is expensive. Not for kobo kobo project.

Are you the one that did the job on the third picture or is it an Internet picture? I love the simplicity and the way it is hanging their without base.

Please those without means of livelihood should have no business with giving birth to children.

Children have lost their dignity and value in Nigeria. You will see poverty stricken couples still given birth and the sight of those kids will want to make you beat a hell out of their parents.

OMOLARAFE:
Thanks very much.

Hello, were you able to check the status of your child's SSN? I am in the same dilemma and I have the believe that my daughter's SSN has been compromised by my hostess while we were there. The link doesn't permit one to check the status of SSN that is not his/hers. You can only check the status of your OWN SSN and not someone's else, not even your ward or child.

Please if you were able to check that of your child, let me know

Dennis3D:
Yes but client opted for a different type later on.
Price and cost of was really high.

Hmmm! I like those white tiles, especially the carrara type? Please what are their prices if you don't mind?

Dennis3D:
100%

Hello, were you able to get those tiles you were looking for?

All these traders. Once they make money, they start forming god. Alaba, Idumota, Trade fair and Ladipo men. Na dem dem. From the look of things, they seems wealthy and the woman will not leave as long as she is still getting money. That's what most of all these men use to hold their women bondage. Don't start any business for them. Make them depend on you for everything and you can do as you wished.

But the daughter goofed big time. She may regret exposing the whole family to ridicule. The mum may not even like the fact that the daughter took the matter to social media.

Can we ever get things right in this country? My hearts goes out to job seekers and those without any means of livelihood. Surviving in Nigeria now for many is becoming a tough task.

I pity the future generation and those entering the labour market at this time. It is tough honestly.

Wike and Judges are like 5&6.

He is too involve with judges matters - cars, houses, head quarters and allowances. He should focus on poverty eradication among the poor population of his state than building quarters for those that could still afford it.

Let federal government build quarters for federal judges and allow the state's chief judge to apply the fund allocated to the state's judiciary for their own operation. He should stop being too involved with judges biko.

I hope so much pressure doesn't work against this guy. I pray Gattusso gives him the needed support.

Soon, Pope will tell him to scorer 6 goals under two minutes and the Italian Prime Minister will tell him to score 1 goal per minute as you are now the most expensive African player in Seria A.

BrabusNG:
And this is helical elliptical staircase.

Good! The exact type I have. Suspended helical elliptical.

As a matter of fact, let her tell AFDB that Nigerians and English speaking African should be employed more in AFDB. Francophone countries have monopolised positions within AFDB to the detriment of English speaking African countries.

They usually use knowledge of both French and English language as a precondition to hire staff and consultants. Because of popularity of English, most Anglohphone countries hardly makes effort to learn French while French speaking countries makes great effort to learn English, thus giving them edge of working knowledge of both their native French and english languages.

Most French speakers do have some slight knowledge of English but greater percentage of English speakers hardly learn french.

I have lost two consultancy positions with AFDB because of my not knowing french language. 80% of staff and consultant in the bank are from French speaking countries and Dr. Akinkumi, the current president of the bank tried to rectified some of these things and they came after him for employing Nigerians.

Poverty+Anger+Nigeria are deadly combination.

I pity those that are affected by these three variables.

EgunMogaji2:
Just out of curiosity Sir but why didn’t you do a staircase landing as opposed to going with tiny threads?

The stairs here doesn't look like a Nigerian hand work. It looks too detailed and neat. Our artisan's attention to detail leaves so much to be desired.

See professional working tools unlike here we use crude implements to work

I’m planning this. I hope I’m not over designing

By the way, it’s just blank plasterboard, painted black with some creative elements (made locally).

Bros, you know you are a master in this game. What you have there is more of creativity than ceiling. Going out of norm. It is still a fantastic design and uncommon. A pure art work which still fits in with my taste appeal.

The problem here is that it may be difficult to source the right material to replicate that design and if you should use anyhow material, they whole thing will loose the appeal. The client may now be like, "bros, this is not what I ordered for". But if you have the materials here available, go ahead, it is a masterpiece artwork.

emordiuche:
I think the architecture in this estate is very impressive. The use of space and the finishing. What do you guys think? check it out here

My kind of design. Simplicity at its peak. I hate it when people do all these over designs on POP with all these useless rainbow colours. These seems common in Nigeria builds.

What you have there is what they call contemporary minimalist POP design. The exact flat shape and edge gaps design I like.

People use over design to kill their POP making them to loose aesthetics appeal. The simpler and straighter a POP design is, the better. But what you have their looks more like fibre board ceiling than POP.

Thumbs up to the Architects. Very modern but that kind of house will require constant AC. Person no go stay for that glass house without AC.

KenModi:
God has nothing to do with it.

Yes I said it! God has nothing to do with road accidents, or mishaps like this.

Since I came to this abroad, I have not seen a single accident, as in bash or kiss my motor type of accident, let alone the one involving lose of lives. And these people are no where close to Nigerians when it comes to religion. Road accidents are preventable, it just takes effectively implemented laws and heavy punishments for defaulters, everyone would sit up and watch as such accidents wld cease happening.

But we, Nigerians, keep allowing people with no license to take cars into the road, if they are caught they can bribe their ways out of it; and people can enter the road with any car they like whether it is road worthy or not and drive anyhow they like. Yet we call God for protection and thank him when he has already given us the power as humans to avoid such things.

Oyibo wey no dey get accident like dis wey trailer go fail brake run into shops or pack okada people wey dey wait for traffic light........dem no get two head.

Don't mind the stupid Nigerian mentality. Everything is attributed to divine intervention. There is nothing like that. If the government fails to do what they are supposed to do, the result is what you see.

I never prayed for God's protection throughout my stay in UK as I was secured. I travelled a lot of times from my base in Scotland to London for job interviews by Megabus or train, sometimes at night and arrived safely as the roads were safe and drivers sane.

Religion is taken the continent backwards.

My hearts goes to the Nigerian youths, the job seekers and those without means of livelihood. It is very tough these days.

Graduate unemployment has reached an all time low, never seen in decades in Nigeria.

This is no more about Ndi Igbo or whatever. It is about corruption and the Nigerian system. So dysfunctional and the politicians will be using divide and rule on the people.

Don't they travel abroad and see how local airports and train stations looks like.

See the nature of the environment and the poor quality work going on there. By next year, even if the managed to complete it, the aluminium cladding will start falling off like the one PH.

SS politics is the most dangerous. Don't even enter if you are not strong.
The youths are mostly willing tools in the hands of the politician.

I visit PH regularly and the rate of unemployment among the indigenous youth population is quite alarming. Most are not willing to work but belong to one youth association or the other just to get cheap money from government.

Orji Ogbonnaya Orji was in Radio Nigeria, not NTA

It is irrelevant. I was trying to mention Nigerian broadcasters and reporters that impressed then. Even now, I don't listen to Radio Nigeria again. Orji was the State's house correspondent of Radio Nigeria.
NTA and Radio Nigerian then we're dope. Delight listening to newscasters and reporters then.
