i eventually dumped that person and can't recommend him, unfortunately.

the guy i am using now came in highly recommended and he's currently plastering in and out and doing my german floors for me.

his work with me will take at least 3 weeks as he just started yersterday.

i can still ask him though, where is your location?
I hope the current person's charges are affordable.
The project is in Osun.

Procarpenter:
My advice is that just negotiate with the bricklayer and tell him how much you can afford to pay for the labour. Because if you pay daily payments you’ll spent more than that 150k. But with the materials just tell him that can 28 bags of cement and 2200 blocks will complete it. Let him know. that’s your budgets for it.
Thanks for this.
Do you have idea about charges for plastering of a house.
How much will it cost to plaster both in and out of a 4- bedroom flat ensuite ?

it covered the labour charges
That is so cheap, I've just been billed 240k.
Can you help me ask the person his charges for plastering the in and out of a 4-bedroom flat ensuite?
Thanks

Good morning All

Please, how many blocks will one bag of cement set?

I am doing my fence now on an uncompleted building i just bought and the bricklayer is saying i need 34 bags of cement for 2430 blocks?

Is this too much?

also, is there a method of calculating pay for bricklayers? he is charging me 150k for the entire fence - 2430 blocks.

I need advice please
Please, does the 150k cover the labour charges or you employ and pay the labourers yourself?

Paisero or Caicedo or Piesaro should be sacked and save us this embarrassment in the run of plays he has had in the Super eagles.

He put Aribo as striker? Nawa o.

Haba...
He was a midfielder, the only forward pass he made led to the goal throughout the playtime.

Beautiful equalizing goal from Iheanacho through the pass from Aribo, to Moses to Iheanacho.

Nigerian strikers were all useless throughout this match.
Don't we have a right winger that was supposed to be intercepting the crosses and corners?

This coach should be sacked asap if we really want to quality and excel in upcoming competitions.

Jogs1900:
I understand your objectivity..This is supposed to be Imo state affairs not a national affairs.It wasn't the federal government that asked people to beat him in his state of origin.
Ajaero said he was beaten by the Police.
Is there a special Police force in Imo apart from the national one?

So invariably, the FG's agent is culpable in this fiasco and should be held accountable.

It's also commonsensical for the Labour to rise up in solidarity for their leader.

stewiepeter:
These are some of the memos that have been released by some of the unions directing their members on an indefinite strike.
I suspected it would get to this level when the Ghanaian labour union sent a solidarity message to Ajaero.

I hope an end would be brought to this strike action in no time.
To be fair and honest, it was wrong for the labour leader to be brutalized in Imo.
Even El-rufai did not do this when the Labour besieged Kaduna during his tenure.

What's the solution to this issue, if there are no covert sentiments in this struggle, like unpaid wage adjustment which the Federal government only paid for one month, September, while we are already in November, and other lingering issues the Labour has with the government.

Imo state government should provide the perpetrators of the brutality on Ajaero and subject them to appropriate judgement and punishment.

What a show of bravery exhibited by Chelsea against the table toppers, Man City, they fought for their lives till the last minute.
I wonder why they are 10th on the log going by today's performance.

The game was absolutely brilliant, lively and breath-taking. Chelsea should keep this tempo going forward.

Salah is on the decline, replacements should be got for the 2 asap.
Klopp should have substituted the duo early in the 2nd half.

This is a good experiment.
I hope he has a stable means of recharging it.
Will he still be using fuel?
Is it hybrid of petrol and electric?

Politics › Re: How Much Is Fuel Price In Your Location Currently? by Glocal1: 6:04pm On Aug 26, 2023
fineboynl:
Here in enugu it’s between 610 to 618.
And what they are selling is between 0.7 to 0.8 in actual liters.

To fill a 5l gallon you will need aleast 6L

Let make use of the best deal

6 X 610 = 3660 ÷ 5 = 732

So in actual sense its N732 a liter as against N610.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Ghana Parliament Legalises Cultivation Of Cannabis by Glocal1: 10:05pm On Jul 14, 2023
Buddha3:
Marijuana is not a drug. It has never been classified as a drug. It is a herb.

Again, marijuana in its pure form, has no adverse effect. Abuse of it is basically tantamount to over-use or over dependence on it, and that equals addiction. Whatever you develop an addiction to, becomes an abuse, even food.

It is only the derivative forms of marijuana that are harmful, because people infuse other substances into the processed marijuana. And you're right when you said it takes longer for ingested marijuana to break down in the system. Whether or not I am qualified to know the required dosage for my system doesn't equate to addiction or abuse on my part cause I don't do it daily.

A good number of enlightened first world countries have legalised the use of recreational marijuana. They're not sick in the head to have done that. And they certainly have the interests of their citizens at heart. So the fact you have a total dislike for something doesn't entirely demonise it, for the rest of the world.
0.3%THC is what is being legalized in Ghana.
Naija's weed species is said to contain the highest percentage of THC which is the active ingredient, which also causes the side effects experienced when smoked or ingested.

Weed is a drug containing THC and other ingredients.

There's actually no adverse health effect to using marijuana.

The world over, there isn't a single record of anyone dying from marijuana use. No one has even gone mad as a result of indulging it. These reports of marijuana causing brain damages are unfortunate stereotypes stemming from misinformation.

I don't smoke but occasionally, when I feel the need to boost my appetite or induce sleep, cause I'm a chronic insomniac from birth, I ingest marijuana either in cooked meals or boiled as a tea.

As for the issue of same sex affiliations, I simply avoid being drawn into those conversations cause discussing it alone, gives me the kind of mental discomfort I don't fancy having.
There are so many adverse health effects of weed.
It is a drug with abuse potential and dependence. Why do you crave it after some time?
You are still abusing it because there is no standard dosage of use at which you achieve your sleep and appetite.

The oral ingestion prolongs the time it takes to produce it's effect on you and the effects last longer than the smoking and inhalation route.

The active ingredient in weed has to be appropriately dosed to achieve medicinal use and reduce it's adverse effects.

They're not sniffing eyedrops abeg.. grin

It's used to clear the eyes after the weed usage leaves your eyes all reddish.
No matter how they try to clear the eyes, they can't clear the chemicals in their system.
What an illicit and unethical use of medicine.

I saw this lovely lady at a store looking nice but later discovered through her social media handles that she smokes marijuana and likely a lesbian.

I wonder what's really happening in Nigeria with this menace of weed abuse.
A lot needs to be done to curb and eradicate drug abuse and homosexuality in our country.
