the main reason why IKEA or any company will fail in Nigeria is lack of business template or should I say policy or structure

This govt will come
Make this policy, after two years the same govt will change that policy�� or another govt will come and make new rules
For example, why should anyone be paying money to any family just to buy land or build house. After all you paid for the land. And the money is going to a family, not govt.
And govt has allowed this to go on for as long as possible.
Imagine IKEA making delivery to your street. But they have to settle touts by your street gate, another set of touts will be by your house while they are offloading
Secondly
We have no action plan
Govt should have a plan of things that will be don in the next ten years.
On this issue of naira falling
We have no olan to either rescue the naira or do anything
Lastly
Anybody can come with bills and tax you
Anybody
Local govt. State. Individual
For my sch building
I pay local govt for dirt and refuse. Something I take care of myself without their help. A sch that is non for profit in a northern village
Trust me, if you don't pay wahala

You can't even sue govt to court. You will lose
Everything is just set up to make people fail everything
It's like a well calculated effort to keep people at the poverty level

As for dashboard, plastic etc, it is possible innosen manufacture them in Nigeria. These are petrochemical by-product. Nigeria has petrochemical plant in Eleme if we can get it to produce.

As for the flat sheet like doors, fender, boot etc they are imported as CKD.
Thanks sir
PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Greenarrow01(m): 11:52pm On Aug 25, 2021

Nigeria does not have a flat sheet plant. We only have rolling steel plants to make stuff like rod if we could get them to produce.

This was a big issue in the 70s when Obasanjo administration was implementing the import substitution strategy that brought about Ajaokuta and DSC Aladja. Economists argued then that building a Russian rolling steel plant (Ajaokuta) is a white elephant project. Investing in a flat sheet and aluminum extrusion plant is a better option. From a rolling steel plant you can only make rebars (rods) but with flat sheet plant you can make a whole lot of stuff like car parts, aircraft parts etc. But they didn't listen.

They didn't listen because in the 70s Nigeria was booming. There was the cement armanda, cement was cheap. Very cheap. Nigerians were building houses up and down the country, housing estates were being built in the Federal Capital Lagos eg FESTAC Town. Julius Berger was building fly overs all over the Federal Capital Lagos. The then government thought this boom will go on forever, so as part of the import substitution strategy, Ajaokuta, Aladja and Itakpe were proposed to produce rods to feed the building boom. 50 years down the line we all know what is Ajaokuta today.

So yes. Innosen import parts as CKD and then assemble. Innosen like so many car manufacturers all over the world is an assembly plant. The parts and engine block come from all over the world.

All roofing sheets manufacturers in Nigeria import the roll sheet and then cut and press into the roofing sheets for sale to the public.
Thanks so much for this.
Should I say I don't believe you
Or it still baffles me

Cos I have watched so many interviews of innoson where they claim they manufacture most parts in Nigeria.
I know the man has a plastic company
That should cover for his dashboard and other parts

Omo
KO easy
Nigeria has the potential to be a member of G7 QND MAKE IT g8
But both past and present killed those dreams

We have almost d same demographics as India
And they are doing better than us.
Everybody is responsible for this mess.
I don't wanna detail this thread
So I will stop here.
For 60 years
We haven't been able to produce a single govt

We can't make them in Nigeria as yet. We have three steel plants in Nigeria: Itakpe, Ajaokuta and Aladja. All are rolling steel plant. You need a flat steel plant for Complete Knocked Down sheet (CKD). This was the advice given to Obasanjo down to Shagari way back then in conceptualizing these projects.

The country does not need three rolling plants. At least one flat sheet plant was needed for CKD parts for car manufacturing plants in Ibadan (Laylands), Volkswagen in Lagos, Alumanco in Enugu and Peogeut in Kaduna. But as usual, they did not listen. Today, we know the rest.
Pls I will sincerely like to know

Are you saying the sheets proforce, innosson and other assembling guys use for their vehicle assembly are all imported ? Cos that's like saying everything in a car is imported.
Is there no company that produce sheets for vesicle roofs and doors and sides ?

Na metal sheets most of these busses innoson assembles are made off.
I will really like to know

Sometimes it still baffles me that dangote is building a refinery, shey he is that archaic or not willing to innovate or just choosing the safe way?

Reducing the quality to consume data is a no no for me.. the problem we have in Nigeria is availability of unlimited data plan, few company offer this but quite expensive.. one of my client is spending over roughly 60k monthly on remote access view..he lives in the state.

The more you view the more data is been consumed.

It’s a very good question actually.

The higher the video quality sent to the cloud, the more the data consumption. The lower the video quality sent to the cloud, the less the data consumption. So setting your upload quality to low will use the least amount of data but for me it defeats the purpose of having SecCams if the video will be grainy.

On mine there’s three options, high, med and low. I’ll share screenshots later. I set mine to high because I want to see details in the video.

Important to know that you only actually need data if you’re going to be watching remotely. If you’re at home on the same network then no data is consumed. From an IP based system viewpoint which I use and recommend. I forgot the size of the local hard drive.
Now I understand
You only use data
When you are for example traveling.

I hate seeing low quality videos from CCTV
I just cringe when I see banks not willing to invest in high quality CCTV
What is the use of a CCTV camera if you can't capture the face of an offender or crime scene.
Having a good image will enable the police do their work effectively.
I know you have one on your present build. The one twinskenny did for you
How much do you spend on data to view the video remotely and when the CCTV is uploading to cloyd

I mean when you are not home

n3xt:
If I share these secret with you, I hope you won’t tell your camera installer grin

Enabling remote viewing is not what makes your camera consume more data. It’s the resolution at which you’re uploading and downloading the camera data that determines your data usage.

Modern CCTVs have a secondary video stream that uses less data at the cost of lower I mage quality. This is done to allow users with poor cellphone reception or slow upload speed on their camera network to view their cameras in real-time.

Regardless of the quality you’re viewing remotely, your camera will still record in full quality on your network recorders.

On cloud storage, your setup will dictate your need.
So how does the CCTV upload quality video to the cloud without consuming much data
Sorry I am trying to learn

Do we really want to build a healthy and profitable culture on this forum?

We need to address the following as a mature mind:

1. Address the gaps we notice;
2. Encourage all stakeholders to address gaps with each other;
3. Create a culture of openness and accountability.

I as a person will respect people more when they talk to me rather than talk about me.

Creating a culture of “We” against “Them” is both dated and destructive.

If we continue this way, it won’t be long before we create fear in those who have genuine interest in knowing why we do what we do.
Then the fear leads to risk aversion which eventually kill innovation.

The end result - we keep doing routine because we fear if we ask “We” might be intimidated by the “Them”

Like Dangote, Like Elon Musk.

Until we put a stop to an economy that is creating so much wealth for one segment of the society who choose to borrow from the future while leaving the other segment stucked in an increasingly impoverished present, I’d take all our economic theories as a laughable joke.
There are new rules grin

Dangote o l’ori meji!

Give me $1bn and put me on a level playing ground with these guys and leave all those dollars has gone up, inflation, pandemic stories.

Remember I said this:


I’m so worried about the future of this country because we can’t grow this way.

Our markets and economies are getting the result for which it was designed for. That’s why it’s pretty easy for a man to move from $25bn to over $200bn in less than 12 months.
You are blaming the wrong people next
You are blaming the wrong people.

Dangote like every business man is busy taking advantage of loopholes and lack of action from govt against cooperations
If you are a business man. You will always take advantage of loopholes and acts of people not doing what they are supposed to do

Elon musk is way different.
People are shifting to electric vehicles
Especially in the Us and China
And he is producing the very best.
Plus his stocks are trading great.
He is doing what everybusiness man should do

You don't expect him not to grow

You yourself you are growing.

You keep mentioning dangote
Dangote has lost much of his wealth to this same govt that is not progressing.

Dangote is not the only business man in Nigeria

We are all just fixed on him.

Why is electric tarrifs increasing
Why is food price increasing
Why is everything increasing.
It cos people lost jobs

Production slowed
And everything was on standstill in 2020


Like someone said earlier
The amount you are billing people for duplex in 2018 and now is different
I am talking about the money you Bill not material things

Why have you not yourself stayed stagnat and not increase the bill

See
It's just that people need to work harder.
But we need to start electing the real people

That's why I consider China the best country on earth

They only appoint people who know and are ready and trained for the job

Not people getting the job because of popularity
