MBJ is right on point.

What's a marriage when one or both partners are not confident about their bodies even to themselves?If she can't show her bald her to her hubby,who would she then show?

Story of the wife that almost died from congealed pus in the armpit cos she was "ashamed" of telling the husband her predicament.

@OP,Give him the benefit of doubt,demand for the benevolent Yankee friend contact.You need to thank him for his kind gestures,know what he's done/doing with your kid brother.

Sit him down and talk.Let him know the risks he's exposing himself and the family to if he is involved in anything shady.He might not even know,some guys might be using him as a 'bird' to move things and throw stones without him knowing.Little things like answering a phone,delivering/picking a mail,opening a bank account etc might appear harmless but very risky.

If after the brotherly advises(given with love and not envy) he still can't convince you of how he made the money,tell your parents seperately and if they too can't persuade him to talk then call a family meeting and let the whole family distance themselves from him till he opens up.However,if ur parents don't care then its you against the family.

Tight spot.I don't envy you. . .

^What then are you saying?

@Topic,Just hoping the man actually meant what he's saying.It's hard(not impossible though) to see an African man "forgive,forget and still love" a wife caught engaging in such things.Is he planning on getting his own pound of flesh laterz,lure her home and kill her one cold midnight?

If she say's she wants out,why not allow them go their seperate ways,temporal maybe?

@Topic,Machinery and imperosnation is wrong but some times cos our educational system sucks,one has no option than to "help" a friend.

I have situations whereby a student is seriously sick or pregnant and in labor and the school authorities claim they wud be unable to let a such a person get on his/her feet and come write the missed paper.

We are all humane,somehow a friend might volunteer to "help" another against all odds.

Properties › Re: Process Of Building A Home **From Buying A Land To Housewarming And Moving In** by ifyalways(f): 1:54pm On Oct 20, 2011
diordaves:
I like this school angle. Refreshing difference from personal project dominating the property forum.

I did a quality certification/project management on my trips to Nigeria for a friend who also built a school in Ibadan. So I can be quick to tell you that 1m should see you through a six room block. But that is half the story.

You need to see an architect with your needs and clarify this questions first:

Are you converting the existing building into the six classrooms or you want to build a new six classrooms with the existing block on the land?


Does this six classrooms include the staff room and headschool's office and library, sick bay and toilets?

Are you planning just a single block classroom format or you hope to make it/convert it in future to a storey building classroom format?

These are the stuff you need to trash out first. But one thing I came away with from my friend's school in Ibadan, you can really save loads, if you do your internal partitioning with particle boards instead of blocks and the external walls half way with blocks. This means you will need load bearing columns. So talk to your architect. If you adopt this method, you can achieve your wish well under one million.

Hope this helps. Good Luck! The Kids need your dream to be a success.
No,Im not trying to convert the existing storey to 6 classrooms.Trying to get a new block of 6 classrooms.

No,just a single block of classroom.No intention of converting it into something else in the near future.

I dont need a staff room as that exists already.A sick bay and then 3 toilets is OK.

With N1M,wud I be able to get that done in say 1 month?

Thank you.

Owu gal:
at outstrip thanks for the empathy. now that i think about it, maybe i should have physically removed the milk from his hands too. i wonder what he'd have said. but i think he got the message when he would see me buy milk and not put it where i used to put it, but in my wardrobe. i know he looks through my wardrobe and stuff, for what i dont know, but when he saw the milk he probably got the message. i would have fought him if he  removed the milk cos then i could accuse him of going thru my stuff. i have not really spoken to my husband about his behavior except that i have corrected his brother in front of him, like the time i mentioned earlier that i corrected my BIL for spreading his clothes in front of the front door.
one time i suggested he not use the brooms because of the so many he keeps breaking.

but i am afraid of saying anything more than that because one time i mentioned  to my husband how his bro broke the tv and he said no it must have been an accident. but i knew he knew it wasnt a simple accident because later he left the broken dvd payers and electronics in the living room and  put the ones that still work, with the exception of one tv ( which he left in the living room) in our bedroom. and cautioned his bro against using it.

@ chaircover, the pot of stew had twelve pieces of meat and he ate it all. i know it had twelve pieces because i became reduced to counting meat in the pot when i would make a pot full of meat fish etc and come back home and see it all gone. i began to think that perhaps i was delusional and didnt actually put meat in the pot so i started counting.

thank goodness though he has left a few days ago. now i have food and property peace. i was relieved to see him go.

 i wish my life was different and that perhaps i married a white man and maybe family wont come over to disturb my peace. but all i can hope for is to become so wealthy that i wont care when family comes over and eats or destroys property. i also hope that i would be to busy to even bother with anyone. and perhaps live in an area to flashy that they wont want to come and disturb me.

but there are those great inlaws who come over and you dont want them to leave, like my hubbys cousin who cooks, cleans and is so well brought up, i wanted to invite her to live with us except that she is kinda expensive and has expensive tastes and i cant afford right now,( situations will change), some of the gucci she wants to be owning.

but as it is i am a sucker for the dark skin and so my life is as it is.
Arrrrgh.Cming from someone who buys golds and he best clothes for her omo odo.
You cant stay with your grown cousin cos you cant use and abuse her.She would cut you to size.
Owu gal:
Dear Emmatok,
thank you so much for your perfect analysis ( if not complete) of the situation. You are right, he does come from the village or at least had a not so priviledged upbringing. and its true he eats a lot and when he first came to my house did not know how to do a thing. I mean he broke the brooms he was trying to use to sweep or kill a fly (I know he broke one broom while trying to use it to swat a fly).

I think he will mature to be responsible, but right now its painful to live with him and also very expensive. this holiday time around he broke no tv, but ate all the food and damaged the iron and a few minor appliances, which thankfuly i have spares of and decided to hide.

You cant imagine how scared I was when he told his brother to teach him how to drive? I immediately informed my husband not to think of using my car. and because of that myhusband never taught him. but to be honest, his brother takes less interest in him than I do. and never even thought of getting the boy a bank account or even ID card. I was the one pressing for it. I would have even got him all that if it wasnt that his family didnt coperate in releasing his birth certificate.

marriage is not easy. so for all the young women out there wishing to get married, I can tell you that its like wishing to learn how to charm a snake. it can be dangerous, tricky and it requires constant vigilance. half of the time I am so resentful of my husband and inlaws. and even my parents for suggesting I learn to tolerate it. I cant tell you the number of times I want to get out of it. Even now as I type I want to get out of it. but  for "hope" that deceiver and yet good thing is making me believe that there is something good to be gotten out of this.
What is he doing with brooms?
Dont kid me,brooms in your house  shocked what happened to your vacuum cleaners ?

Freaking internet noise maker.

[quote author=musiwa,,. link=topic=785658.msg9378539#msg9378539 date=1319081624]balewa at the  pre-colonial conference in London, did not know to turn his cup up side down.   You dont blame him,  Most of you who did not live abroad for long time dont know. It is like me asking any of the governor  what is germany horse. they dont know.

It is like fashola calling the new train light train. I laugh in canada. it is a metro train.  the truth is lagos state should not convert the train. A new metro goes for about $10 billion. the one coming to lagos are like brand new. they are very good.  the only problem is , they use electricity.

What fashola should do is built power plant just for the train and use them from metro.  it is a one in a one in a life time chance for us to have it.

  ota  in ogun state to lagos island is one hour on that train.   what you should do about the electricity is easy. You need to build a power plant and have stand  back up, even if the power goes off.  you isolate the power plant from NEPA and others.

It is important lagos use the train as metro and not light train, even if it means they may not meet the target date. it is hard to get a metroline and it takes them long time to build.  we should not misuse this one time chance. there are no second use one out there that easy. i have been on it several times. it is very fast. it will go from Ota to lagos island in one hour.[/quote]lol

Forget story joor, something tells me he wouldn't sue the NDLEA when he's released; never mind what his ignorant lawyer is saying - after all, Baba Suwe hasn't even seen the lawyer since the ordeal began, let alone giving him the go-ahead to file a lawsuit.

When he is eventually released, don't be surprised to hear him yarn bollocks like "I've been vindicated", "I leave them to God", and "I have forgiven them", lol. And then we'll know for sure that some wuruwuru must have taken place in there to cover up for him, so he'd be 'grateful' to the NDLEA' for cooperating with the powers-that-be who intervened on his behalf.
