To think the caterpillar in the picture below is right inside the plot where the building I shared is situated, is amazing. It passed tight inside our plot to wreck havoc on the next building but couldn’t bring down ours.
I think it’s safe to say the building passed village people structural integrity test.
Na one of us here own the build.

"Next Construction Ltd: Caterpillars ain't got nothing on us"
n3xt: If your design is right and you did not bat an eyelid on critical structural elements (quality of block, thickness of your plastering, gauge of reinforcement used, column sizing etc) during construction, I believe strongly that break-in through the wall won’t really be a bother even if the thieves come with a demolition hammer.

A structure that I designed sometimes around 2014 or 15 was among the buildings LASG went to demolish in Ajah area last year.
A lot of sympathizers who throng to the site were surprised the structure didn't fall like every other building in the neighborhood despite the fact that the caterpillar has remove some critical columns supporting the first floor slab.
Most people didn’t know there were lots of supplemental columns buried introduced to provide additional support for the structure while designing the building.
This explains the reason the building was able to survive the demolition before people could get an order to stop the illegal exercise.

Just last week, I tried breaking some wall on my building to update features. It was as if I was breaking concrete.

Wonderful! When technology meets local science.

2. If he has a trusted ally, send his ATM card back and tell the person the PIN to withdraw and send to him.
3. You guys should raise funds and get him a plane ticket back to US. Once in US, he can arrange to be driven straight to the hospital to get the medical assistance he needs for free and get unemployment benefits. The social workers will arrange a living place for him.
NB: His presence back in US is the best thing that can happen to him now. That should be your primary goal.
FrankGenius79: Am a graduate of Business administration and management. I have a 2nd class upper, smart and intelligent. I like traveling and have decided to go for a job that entails traveling. Jobs like a public relations executive, Corporate Business representative, etc..A job that will enable me travel, achieve company objectives, come back and deliver reports, move again to another project. I want to work while doing what I love.
/ In other words, you don't want to work. You just want to be the Bobrisky of one big oga. I wish you luck.
I want to know if it's right to hide one's achievements like educational, monetary etc because one wants to find true love.
Does it make any sense?
Would a woman be considered bad for rejecting you, if you said you squat with your brother whereas you own a house?
Or that you didn't attend a university whereas you did?
Or that you you didn't have a job whereas you did?
Note that all these are in a bid to test if she is a wife material.
Is it wrong for women to insist on certain things like wealth, educational background, ...
/ The only thing you should disguise about yourself is your wealth. Just be yourself but act like e no dey. Money is like honey that attracts bees. Hide the honey so that you can sieve through the hives. It is very necessary these days...very very necessary!
If you believed the police that all the youths killed in Imo State were ESN gunmen, there is no reason not to believe that the Ogboni man killed Jumoke with a stray bullet.
Don't start reasoning now because it is happening to one of your own. It is too late. Our police personnel are very honest and we must always believe their reports.
/ I am really disappointed in Buhari. The inflation is not high enough. At least 500-800% inflation will be appropriate. Who blinks first loses. Nigerians learning the hard way? I love it.
DoggoneDogg: Igboho the grand commander of Oduduwa republic, great Afonja warrior and invincible bulletproof monk has been reduced to a mere prisoner in chains.
After today, if he see ordinary chickens fighting in his neighbourhood, he will report to the nearest police station like a good citizen.
/ People like you are the reasons why I am glad that Buhari is the President. Keep mocking Igboho. Perhaps one day Nigeria will happen to you more than it is already dealing you a tough hand.
The evil you nurture will turn around and swallow you in future. It is not even the bloated bill. But the way they tossed him around when he tried to reach a higher authority. We welcome him to reality. The same goes to retired security personnel who get played around like ludo when they try to get their pension. This Nigeria must happen to everyone.
Hopefully they won't forget to include inciting statements by Miyetti Allah against Southerners, Gov. Ortom and Christians that gave rise to Mr. Igboho. It is known as Action (Miyetti Allah) and Reaction (Sunday Igboho).
/ Everything in Nigeria is a waste until someone of non-African descent comes to show them. What are our universities for? Certificate milling institutions? There are mineral resources in Nigeria that have not been found yet. The Chinese will find them. Thousands of years of gold in Zamfara and it took foreigners to find them. Who did this to Nigerians/blacks?
Priceless007: I explained to her I wasn't ready for any such thing, that I have a calling to answer and a course to finish, that what happened between us was just a stupid and careless mistake that has been as a setback for me to achieve my goal...
PS. Please if anyone is willing to teach me any skill, I would be very grateful and willing to learn.
/ The only skill you need is in Sex Education, specifically, how to put on a condom.
/. If you want to be successful, bet against anything Nigeria. Embrace logic and avoid emotional attachment misrepresented as patriotism.
When I stated in late 2019 that US$ will be exchanged at N500 sooner than later, the "smart ones" cursed me out. And here we are today. Don't think N600 is far-fetched considering the rate Buhari and co-travellers are mismanaging the mono-cultural economy.
NB: My medium term target by extrapolation is N700/$ by the end of Buhari's tenure.
/ The foundation of militant feminism is hatred. Militant feminists hijacked feminism and use it as an avenue to glorify their misery. I heard that misery loves company.
Rarely would you see a beautiful, single feminist.
This is a clear evidence that the police mount checkpoints for extortion. If they were there to fight crime, how could they easily be overwhelmed? They are very much interested in stopping commercial vehicles for N100 that on closer observation, one can deduce that they do not pay attention to activities around them. They don't look agile at all.
Did crime increase these few months they stayed away from the roads? It is the same ol' same old.
AquaBekee: Anambra 2021: 'Accord, The Only Alternative Party For Ndi Anambra' - Guber Candidate, Alexreports
As the November 6, governorship election in Anambra State draws near, the Accord has been described as the only viable alternative for the people of the State.
This was disclosed by the youngest governorship candidate of the party, Mr. Ekene Alex Nwankwo, popularly called AlexReports.
/ It is only hatred/envy that will make a man blast Obi Cubana without poking Gov. Obiano for neglecting roads in Anambra State. Why is everyone blaming Obi and absolving Gov. Obiano who has the people's mandate to develop Anambra State? Does the Federal allocation for Anambra go to Obi Cubana's pocket? They should blame Obi Cubana for the deplorable state of Onitsha-Owerri Federal expressway too. Afterall that road passed through Oba as well.
spyder880: Good morning Sir, In Enugu, check G.N. Ibekwe, Aikez or Kurpas. They all are around the Ugwuaji road, Loma Linda estate side of the road. There are just too many direct importers in Onitsha that I dont even know the one to name. Check Brasco at the building materials international market at Ogidi. All these people are loaded with many different classes of tiles, including original Spanish tiles.
/ I still don't understand why people go to church and act surprised that they are being extorted. What do they expect? The priest or pastor doesn't give a rat's behind if you go to hell. Why is this difficult for people to understand? Is the pastor or priest himself sure of going to heaven?
