Properties › Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by happney65: 10:17pm On Jan 31, 2019
Destiny27:
Hello house, greetings to everyone.

I am planning to do both internal and external plastering of a 4-bedroom bungalow. The building has a sitting room with dinning, Masters bedroom with toilet/bathroom, 3 other bedrooms, kitchen, 2 toilets and one bathroom, a sit-out.

I want to have an idea of the financial implication.

Is there a way costing is done when it comes to plastering?

I would appreciate responses from the experts.
Got a Quotation of about 450K for plastering both interior and exterior for a 3bedroom ensuite..Bricklayer charges was 200K..The bricklayer was the one that did the building from foundation till Paraphet before roofing and co..so for a 4bedroom should not be more than 500 sha.I cant really say

Note..I did not employ the services of any contractor..I do it myself together with my Dad..
Politics › JUST IN: Soyinka Urges Nigerians To Reject Both Buhari And Atiku by happney65(op): 2:26pm On Jan 31, 2019
Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka says the presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are only worthy of “absolute rejection” as the country needs a new direction.

He stated this at the Citizen Forum, an interactive session that was held at the Freedom Park, Lagos, on Thursday.

He also stated that he was open to supporting an “alternative” candidate.

His words: “It is time for a totally new direction, and when an alternative emerges, we will give the candidate our backing.

“For the avoidance of doubt, let me make my position quite clear because I don’t want any ambiguity; I Wole Soyinka will not be voting for either the two so-called contesting parties. I find both of them worthy of absolute rejection.

“For a number of reasons which I will not go into here, I’m not interested in a comparative assessment. My position is simply that it is time for a totally new direction. And obviously, I’m not the only one; as I’m speaking, there is a coalition having its meeting in Lagos from which they hope to produce a consensus candidate.

“There is another group meeting in Abuja, also at the end would send us their consensus candidate. Things have been going on quietly in the background to try and change the direction of this nation in a very positive way, and to make the public understand that they do not have to be enslaved permanently to the old discredited order. It is my sole business in this election.

“I don’t believe in what is called negative vote, which means, for me, throwing your vote in a waste basket, I believe instead in a creative vote, not a protest vote, not a negative vote but a creative vote. And a creative vote means that the will to at least sow a seed through your vote that will germinate eventually. The pace of germination is beyond the control of everyone, but it is never too early to make a beginning. It has happened before in other societies. When a dark horse emerges from nowhere and trumps all the political juggernauts caterpillars and so on with their performers, worthless, their capacity for violence and treachery.”

Politics › Nigerian Government Approves N91billion For Grazing Reserves by happney65(op): 10:10am On Jan 31, 2019
"The Nigerian government has initiated a 10-year National Livestock Transformation Plan (NLTP) as part of efforts to address clashes between herdsmen and farmers.

The plan, according to government, is expected to gulp about N91billion in investments, while a profit of N2trillion is expected over the 10-year period.

The first phase of the plan will take care of grazing reserves in each of the seven pilot states of Adamawa, Benue, Kaduna, Nasarawa, Plateau, Taraba, and Zamfara which have been affected by herdsmen/farmers clashes, with four ranches (small, intermediate, medium and large) in each grazing reserve.

According to the plan as reported by Daily Trust newspaper, ranchers and rearers will be encouraged to bring their cattle to a fattening site wherein the cattle will be fed so as to boost average weight from 200-250 kg to 450-500kg.

If done, livestock farmers are expected to recoup N350,000 per cow at the selling rate of N900 per kilogramme.

According to the plan, “funding would be provided to cover the cost of fattening. Once cattle are enrolled in the programme, the asset owner will sign an agreement with the lender to allow for all cattle to be sold at specified weight range.

“Upon sale, lender deducts the cost of fattening from realized value, and cattle owner keeps the remainder of profit, minimizing risk and upfront investment."

Politics › BREAKING: EFCC Files Fraud Charges Against Babachir, Oke, Wife by happney65(op): 6:46pm On Jan 30, 2019
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has filed fraud charges against the immediate-past Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal; a former Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency, Ayodele Oke, and his wife, Mrs. Folashade Oke.

The PUNCH gathered that the anti-graft agency on Wednesday filed 10 counts against Lawal and five others, including his company, Rholavision Engieneering Ltd, before the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in Abuja.

It filed four counts against Oke and his wife, Folashade, before the Federal High Court, in Lagos.

President Muhammadu Buhari had, in October 2017, sacked Lawal and Oke following a report of investigations by a panel headed by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, into allegations of fraud leveled against them.

The charges against the duo are coming over 15 months after they were sanctioned by the President"

Politics › I Wasn’t Absent From Home For 104 Days' — Obasanjo Aims Another Jibe At Buhari by happney65(op): 4:07pm On Jan 30, 2019
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has aimed another snide remark at President Muhammadu Buhari.

On January 20, 2019, Obasanjo had held a State of the Nation broadcast in which he said Nigerians would be "fools" — himself inclusive — if Buhari is reelected into power next month.
The next day, in a video published by BBC, Obasanjo also said Buhari is sick in the body, mind and spirit.

In his most recent take on Buhari, the former President, who was the guest speaker at the Island Club Quarterly Business Lecture, on Wednesday, criticised Buhari for his lenghty absences from office and the country on medical grounds.

In the years since he was sworn in as President of Nigeria in 2015, Buhari has spent 104 days outside the country on medical vacation.

However, speaking on the competence of his former vice, Obasanjo said since he didn’t spend 104 days outside the shores of the country, people may not know that Atiku stood in his stead in many capacities while they were in charge of the country’s administration.

According to Obasanjo, contrary to popular belief, Atiku presided over several Federal Executive Council (FEC) meetings under his 1999-2007 administration.on the latter’s medical vacation.

He also stated that one of the most ridiculous claims he has heard is that he did not trust Atiku, who is the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, to preside over the FEC.

His words: “That is not true because he had occasion to preside a few times that I was out of the country on duty. On those occasions, he was in charge of the FEC meetings and no Nigerian chief executive has devolved to his deputy as much as I did to Atiku.

“I did not need to designate him ‘acting president’ because the constitution is clear; once the president is not available, the vice president automatically acts with full powers, and he consults when and if he considers it necessary.

“But since I was not absent from home for 104 days at a time, people may not know that Atiku actually stood in for me whenever I was out (of the country). You have a man who has what it takes in experience, exposure, lessons that he has learnt and he has learnt his lessons. I tried to teach him a few of them. You have a man who has what it takes at this time for us to have a change and we need a change for the better.”

Politics › No VP Acted In Presidential Capacity More Than Atiku – Obasanjo by happney65(op): 3:51pm On Jan 30, 2019
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said no Nigerian vice president acted in the stead of his principal as much as former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar.

Obasanjo, who was the guest speaker at the Island Club Quarterly Business Lecture, which held Wednesday, stated that, contrary to popular belief, Abubakar presided over several Federal Executive Council meetings under his 1999-2007 administration.
The former President took a jibe at President Muhammadu Buhari, who spent 104 consecutive days on medical vacation, and Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, who was appointed as “acting president.”

According to Obasanjo, one of the most ridiculous claims he has heard is that he did not trust Atiku, who is the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, to preside over the FEC.

He added, “That is not true because he had occasion to preside a few times that I was out of the country on duty. On those occasions, he was in charge of the FEC meetings and no Nigerian chief executive has devolved to his deputy as much as I did to Atiku.

Politics › 2019 Elections: Nigeria Can’t Afford To Fail, US Envoy Warns by happney65(op): 10:03pm On Jan 29, 2019
United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Stuart Symington, on Tuesday said Nigeria should get the 2019 elections right in order not to disappoint those that look up to it after the feat recorded in 2015.

Symington made the remarks when he paid a visit to the Police Command in Kaduna.

“The State of Kaduna is an important place during this election. I am here to underscore a couple of key ideas.

“The first being that these elections are really about Nigerians, decided by Nigerians under it’s laws which will define the future of Nigeria.

“The election is also for others who have looked up to Nigeria’s example of democracy in the past especially if it would be as good as that of the elections of 2015.”

He therefore said it was important for Nigerians to decide on the election’s credibility like they did in 2015, “so that it’s credit will be invested in democracy and freedom throughout West Africa and across the entire World.”

He urged Nigerians to also interrogate politicians using hate speeches and disseminating fake news, as they are capable of dividing or causing problems among the people.

“These kind of negative speeches can have negative impacts in the future.

“There are other people who have pointed fingers at those who are saying the elections would come out wrong, saying the elections can be right if every citizen of Nigeria act on the understanding that they are individually responsible for anything they get from the polls”, he stressed.

He noted that so far, there has been cheering commitments from President Muhammadu Buhari and other leading candidates contesting to rule the country, to ensure that every vote counts.

The U.S. ambassador added that people must take responsibility for their actions, “first before God, second under the laws of the country, in the eyes of countrymen and lastly in the eyes of the world.”



Symington therefore encouraged all Nigerians to participate peacefully in the elections, to guarantee free, fair, peaceful and a credible honest reflection of their choice.

In his remark, the Police Commissioner, Mallam Ahmad AbdurRahman, assured that the command would do its best in providing level playing field to all political parties, candidates and the electorates to actively participate in the polls.

He said it was expected of all Nigerians to conduct themselves according to the rules guiding the election.

“The Police has no interest in the outcome of the elections or the person who wins eventually, ours is to police the process to it’s conclusion.

“We are the referees without a team, just abide by the rules and don’t engage in hate speeches right from the campaign to elections,” Abdur-Rahman said.

The Commissioner stated that the command has commenced the prosecution of those alleged to have engaged in hate speeches during campaigns.

When you hit your enemy and you re scared of his next move then you did not hit him well...makaveli.


This is exactly tinubu’s style,I call it tinubu 101.

This is the rule of politics that ambode failed to realise,in politics we call this type of people “unfit”

Ambode is unfit to be a government not because he didn’t do well but he didn’t play politics like a politician.

When they were rumors that ambode has fallen out of favour from tinubu and might not get the ticket,he was expected to fight!.nobody gives you anything in politics for being gentle,he should have created a faction in apc,change the location of apc hq to his prefared location and dismantled the one in ogba under the guise of renovation.

Get some loyal people in the assembly,use your commissioners.when those siting on the fence see you are ready to fight they will join you in fighting.

See udon,see wike,see Theodore orji they were brought in by strong men.lobby directly to apc bot members and the president not through asiwaju.


Even if it becomes clear u might lose the primary ticket in apc,you decamp to pdp.. (pdp as at then was waiting for his next move)

Think about this: ambode defeated agbaje with less that 150,000 votes about 800k to 650k.

You have your supporters,the non partisan lagosians,the non Yorubas,and the Igbo who will always go the opposite direction of buhari will vote for you,then u will have a chance of wining the election and even if the apc will want to impeach you,your party will speak out for you .....



But no he didn’t do that,even those that are angry that wanted to fight for him ,he shouted then down. A commissioner couldn’t take his cowardice and resign castigating apc leadership in a letter.


Last bullet: ambode is lilylivered and should be humiliated.
Good for him..You die just once..He is simply a coward and should be treated as such..He started to fight only when it was clear he had lost..He is a complete Idiot..

Prosecute Atiku and GEJ is like asking Trump to prosecute Hillary! Surely you have wondered why it doesn't work that way? Or was there not a "lock her up" at one time? Or you admitting the "lock her up" guy too was doing a Buhari?

I'd like to ask you for evidence of Buhari's looting, but doubt you can and expect you to inundate me with a lot of baseless unverified hearsay. I'd rather not take that chance with Atiku, thank you very much. And I assure you that if it is truly found that Buhari is mr no-intergrity as you claim, the truth will out. We will gladly be able to call it Buharism, and we Nigerians will never fall for such crap ever again!
You see why I said you buharists and trumpists are one and the same and you both reason alike..I can just wake up today and start calling you a thief and everybody believes you are a thief and start stoning you isnt it?

I have asked you times without number why they have not shown evidence of him being corrupt nor charge him to court you still ended up blabbing..They said he cant enter America Isnt it?And that if he enters he would be arrested isnt it?He went and came out with no scratches..

Now charge him to court for corrupt practices you cant..Why is that too hard to do?That means you have nothing on him QED..You see you reason like a trumpist now?I would even prefer to be a trumpist,at least that one get money and small sense than a supporter of buhari who cant answer simple debate questions he had to be saved by his Vice..The moderator was frustrated she had to tell Osinbanjo to hold on and let Buhari answer "In her voice "Let him answer naa"..A Man that has little or no sense in his head..President Merkel of West Germany.. grin grin grin

Politics › Lagos Assembly Gives Ambode One Week To Defend Self Against Possible Impeachment by happney65(op): 9:23pm On Jan 28, 2019
The Lagos State House of Assembly has given Akinwunmi Ambode, Governor of Lagos State, the opportunity to defend the allegations of illegal expenditure regarding the 2019 appropriation bill, before the house decides on the proposed impeachment moves against him.

Right Honourable Mudashiru Obasa stated this during the plenary session held on Monday.

“Within a week, we can come back here and do whatever we want to do regarding those who are clamouring or who have asked for impeachment. And if by the end of the day, there is need to consider whatever response from them, then we can as well move forward,” Obasa said.

The lawmakers are alleging that Ambode has started incurring expenditure on the 2019 budget, which has not yet been presented to the house.

In his remarks on the matter, Obasa said: “There have been violations of the constitutional procedure regarding the budget. You know the consequences of this offence. I must also agree with you that the Attorney General, the Finance Commissioner, who are in the better position to inform the Governor adequately or advise in such manner to have saved him from all these.”

He noted that the budget should have been presented last Monday, but wasn’t, noting that it was out of place for expenses to be incurred on a budget that had not been presented.

“Amidst all that has been said in the media, I would use this medium to clarify this: Lagos State House of Assembly cannot sit and scrutinize a budget which is already incurring expenditure,” Obasa added.

According to the House, a committee was set up and it was discovered that the 2019 budget is already being implemented by the Executive without being laid on the floor of the House. The Committee also noted in its findings that for the 2018 budget, the third quarter had not performed beyond 50 per cent.

The Speaker, however, urged the lawmakers to allow the executive arm of government led by the Governor to defend the “infractions”, before they take action on the matter.

The House has adjourned its sitting till February 4, 2019

That's like claiming Jonathan was not a crook because EFCC never arrested him, lol! Who would you blame for all the theft of Nigerian money in ghanasmustgoes that went on under him? Do you hear any ghanas going anywhere under Buhari? Oh, I get it, he alone is stealing and no one is providing any evidence, right?

Thing is, Atiku's policies are enough for me to be against him. Take privatisation on NNPC, what I call the goose that lays the golden egg. Money people would love him to do that so they can buy it. Or is that not exactly what happened to the parastatals he was responsible for privatising when he was vp? And what exactly happened to those paras? Where they not asset stripped?

We fortunately live in a democracy. I don't like Atiku, and you don't like my bubu, but it's our pvcs that do the talking in the end. My hope is come Feb 16, mine is more powerful than yours, inshallah!
I have said it over and over again,kindly produce evidence of his stealing..Is that too hard to do?Buhari the dumb guy is in power why cant he prosecute him?You guys sha like passing the blame with lies and propaganda..Prosecute Atiku and GEJ,No they wont..They will only be running about the bush with lies and propaganda..

Was it not under Buhari Abdulrasheed Maina that ran away under GEJ came back into office?Just imagine that effrontery..Abacha's money that is being refunded is being re looted by buhari and his Gang of 40thieves..I thought Mr Buhari the Saint said Abacha wasnt corrupt..
Buhari who said he has 150Gay cows has all his kids abroad..His son go injured in a power bike accident and got treated abroad..Ohh how poor buhari is
