DISCOUNTED PRICE ON ERA & JA SOLAR PANELS!

Why do you persist in 'spamming' this thread with giant product adverts?

Are you trying to demonstrate some 'stubbornness' even after you've been gently admonished that it's against the thread purpose?

Good luck, as you whistle for 'business' you get here from such tactic.

PS: I am in the market for alternative power solutions but .... nah!

In other matters, I feel clients shouldn't be made to feel reluctant to report any anomaly here.
I think it's good for online business and helps to put all parties on their toes and be of their best behaviour.
Once the suspect clears his/herself, it would serve as more advert.
However, it's better to choose words to use carefully and not use fraud to describe the accused when it hasn't been proven beyond reasonable doubt.
In all of these, discerning minds know and appreciate the objective peace makers even when their submission may not go well with either parties involved.
God no go shame us.

Some wise fellow used the expression ... Too many cooks.

This forum will add maggi, periwinkle, tomato, crayfish ... until the soup is unrecognizable.

I have employed many artisans here, some don't even know me. They are predominantly good people.

I apologize (and will delete my one or two posts) hinting that one of those was purposely fraudulent, not because I wasn't defrauded of the millions of Naira (I was), but because this is not the best forum to resolve things or label people. Deal with it outside.

Ciao.

Doyin Olowu’s case is currently being handled by an NGO a colleague of mine (who is a Social Worker) reached out to. The NGO is called Gender Development Initiative
(www.initiatives4kids.org).

Good job OP.

That NGO (from the website) appears to be one of the better organized and focused ones about.

I thought am the only one written down every penny spent so far on my project . I guess it's necessary to have a cost price attached to one's build.

It can become obsessive though. LOL ... I had to take a step back when I saw I had recorded "Kilishi - Abuja Airport" under "Miscellaneous Expenses"

Mide3367:
I went to the Google form, filled my details but stopped myself from donating. Why? How do I wanna know if this money is going to a private pocket? How do I want to know that the poor and hungry will get this money? So I cant be feeding an individual in the name of helping the poor

It's a frigging scam.

Does the guy sound like a philanthropist to you ...

Pls guys betting is bad, like really really bad, pls stay away from it.

LastWeek1:
Thanks for your comment . Actually, the ground floor is for house help/staff and the store mainly for main building usage while the upper ground will be rented out.

This is a very good plan, something one might even be tempted to buy from you or your Architect at some point. It is a very functional outbuilding to add to a family compound and I like that it is not necessarily traditional like the 'boys-quarters' attached to old colonial houses.

I like the modest footprint and I then apreciate the larger floor space created for the first floor with subtle overhangs. I don't mind looking over into the next compound, you wil always have this with a building close to the perimeter fence.

What I would change for the ground floor store is to do away with the windows (maybe just air bricks) and that side entrance door. You need spacious access to a store so the entire store frontage can be occupied by a wide garage type swing door or rollers, for added functionality.

Good luck and thanks for sharing.

Edit: I would swap the positions of the kitchen and toilet/bathroom in the ground floor self-contained apartment if possible, for plumbing efficiency, since it would be in the same area as the upper floor's.

You need another username tho ... kinkykinky is hadly professional IMO.

Good luck.

NipseyHustle:
Just found out that I can get 'moko' Isopropyl Alcohol at any good pharmacy for around #300. I'll be using it instead buying a can of cleaner.

Thanks for the information guys.

Exactly! Well done.

I've been using it for years.

Re: your original message, DO NOT use a toothbrush or anything to scrup the MAFs in the process of cleaning - you might impact the critical resitivity function. Just spray the alcohol on liberally, shake about a little bit and replace. The alcohol will dissolve the oils dirt etc and evaporate naturally.

melviniyke2002:
check jumia or konga...its ard 3500 to 5k.....

These 'MAF Cleaners' are simply re-canned Isopropyl Alcohol, rebranded and sold for more money.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopropyl_alcohol

If you can get a generic can of Isopropyl Alcohol, you're good to go.

It was paper from the beginning..She was [b]charmed [/b]she didn't see it since

Hypnotized. It's actually very easy to do this once you figure the person is very suggestible. The gang studies her lifestyle for a few days and implant the subliminal messages that will make her very susceptible to this hynosis. Google 'Darren Brown' for more insight.

Hint: similar to Churches and their background music and Pastor with commanding voice, true.

You may try Canada in the future

No! We will sieze his passport, he's going nowhere.

Let Canada manage their own builders, not steal awa own best of the best.

Lol

RayRay06677:
Do you have a proof that they didn't trade because I believe they traded but didn't win. We move but am bothered that it bothers you more than me. On your infallible investment, keep it up and face front. Stop looking sideways to others hustle. For every win, there is a loss, ExxonMobil just recorded theirs, who I be?

This statement needs to be challenged for the sake of future Ponzi victims. You may be looking for some comfort in your situation but not at the expense of perpetuating untruths. Another Ponzi scheme will likely show up tomorrow and you'll still be mis-labelling it as an 'investment'

They never traded. At least not in the volumes resembling the investments they were collecting. They had one yeye training school that was a front for the Ponzi scheme. It was all about collecting money, sharing some out and pocketing the rest, until it became unsustainable.

Finally, Maxwell Odum's excuses to date have boiled down to System issues, CBN, Banks, SEC etc. I'm surprised he's not blamed Sango yet, lol. He's never blamed trading losses simply because there was no trading.

You will notice all the other junior Ponzi's (Bara, WCP, DW Arerben) have recently adopted this 'blame the banks or system issue' playbook as they prepare for their own exit.

The roof removal must have happened in the last two days or a week ago while the contractor is trying to fix the job.

....

I’m not trying to make excuse here but just trying to have an exchange on the likely possibilities.

Then, make contingencies and cost them properly. As the Professional, it's your job to think through these things with your client.

My home in the UK was 'rooflesss' for over 8 months during some recent loft conversion/extension works. Of course, scafolding and a temporary roof cover was in place, with side sheeting to protect agains the elements. I lived in the house all that time.

Theoutsider:
LMAO

Was predicted.

jabolo:
Unfortunately the main caliber of victims in this MBA case would not be the online warriors and savvy ponzi-hunters you find on this platform. It would be the relatively uneducated okada riders and market women attracted to their shiny offices they are opening in key commercial centers. Those with the most to lose but with very little knowledge of what they are getting into.

It is a business model conceived on very evil intentions when you think of it and there will be hell to pay on the day of reckoning. I'd hate to be a landlord of one of their buildings right now.

Joybalaba:
Hi Goodevening pls help this woman kemi multicolour interiordezine that claimed to be interior decor has collected money from me since 16 of Dec. 250k. she promised to do the wordropes and curtains for me in a week. its more than a month and half now but she has blocked my number after insulting me,. Please please help thanks

Deleted.

I'm learning might as well go ahead and do the wood formwork for the real staircase, instead of temporary 'Mallam stairs' ahead of the main decking work.

That spiral staircase is a work of art. Thanks for sharing.

Renditiondezign:
We do

You SHOULD NOT be doing this in residential premises. The fibers could be dangerous to health and you need breathing equipment and PPE to work with them safely.

https://www.monash.edu/ohs/info-docs/safety-topics/chemical-management/carbon-fibre-composites-ohs-information-sheet

Protection of eyes and throat from carbon fibre dust is paramount. Users must wear full goggles and a dust mask to prevent dust inhalation. Dust particulate masks must be fit tested to the individual. Protective clothing should be worn whenever dust is created (such as while machining). The use of elastic cuffs on the protective clothing will keep dust from getting inside protective suits.

LucemFerre:
It baffles me why people create 2 lanes on a 1-lane road, or 2 lanes on a 3-lane road or 3 lanes on a 4-lane road etc when there is traffic of any kind.
Do people not realize that that creates more problem than it solves?

Undiagnosed mental illness.

airsaylongcome:
I won't condescend to throwing insults. I'm bigger than that. I have a family member who passed this night from Covid. And she has considerable sum invested in MBA. She passed without receiving her invested capital. She didn't receive any ROI either. I had family that put money in MBA. Will you say then that I conned family too?

First of all, sorry for your loss. May the soul of the departed RIP.

On MBA, you bear a lot of responsibility that you cannot shake off easily. You presented yourself as an insider so must have access to more information than most.

Moreover, you worked in IT. Who else can be trusted to have seen (or even worked on) the forex trading servers and operations bringing in all this supposed profits.

Your active involvement and continued promotion of the MBA organization was a sign to many that this thing could not be a scam. You see - the abusers, cursers, 'my captain, my king, my general' loudmouths were easily discounted but you gave it credibility. That, to me, was more insidious and dangerous as result.

I have addressed you directly on the ongoing scam and how it will inevitably end and I recall your response was always unequivocal - that MBA was a 'going-concern'.

You were never one of the abusive elements and last thing you want to be doing is being overly defensive. Methinks you need to express more concern and humility as regards those that have invested and lost in this ponzi.

Good Day.

therealMcCain:
how will the door help the man in room x and y to escape the fire?

Both rooms have buglary on their windows

The green represent the entry/exit points of the building(as obtainable in most houses in nigeria)

If you are the one, how will you escape the fire?

This is an ongoing conversation, even discussed over the last couple of days here.

I would suggest one of the windows in Bedrooms X and Y should feature an openable 'buglary proof' window. Presumably the window closest to the bed since you want to reach it as quickly as possible.

I saw this as a solution manufactured in Ghana and we are made to understand there are Nigerian Artisans available to produce such. Brabus (aka N3xt) provided some numbers as well.

From my experience, you would need to step outside this forum to go seek a solution as it does not appear to be high in the list of most people's considerations here. If it were, one of the metalworking or window supply artisans here would have run with it.

Babangida's regime (with his Structural Adjustment Program - SAP) was the beginning of the slippery slope for our great country.

Most old skool people know this.

And, to think he's chillin' on a Hilltop in Minna.

n3xt:
So I got on this expedition yesterday and here’s what I found out:

- low patronage wane the interest of local fabricators.
- it cost almost the same amount to produce a 4 x 5 window and a 6 x 7 gate.
- it’s a worthwhile investment if there’s ready market for it.
- price is determined by materials choice (steel, galvanized steel, aluminum alloy etc)

I was billed 120k for 6 x 7 and 105k for 4 x 5. I can invest in this if there’s a govt regulation that made it compulsory for each house to have one per room. Otherwise, it’s really not worth it.

Thanks for what you do.

Definitely interested (if you kindly provide contact details).

What is 6 x 7 or 4 x 5 (imperial feet?)

Edit:

The hungry fabricators at Gate Iron Market in Ibadan are requesting for measurements. They want to get it done ASAP.

I believe so much in Nigeria ��

This is a welcome development, if true but I'm not in those places. I might visit at the opportune time. I'm serious about this.

I'm thinking one of our resident artisans would run with the concept. Or window suppliers here could include in their stock.

LizabDavtopCo:
It's time you and your gang move on and allow people to handle their problem by themselves if any.

Enough of putting WITCH feeling to another man's business.

Go and get a life...

Why did you change your moniker from Tope777, after the MBA scam went down as predicted?

You were the resident Ponzi Pastor but I guess the shame was too much?

You should spend the rest of your life praying for forgiveness, from anyone you misled into this scam.

n3xt:
Na wa o! Let's talk.

What's the big deal in this bro? This is no big deal bro

_________

This was a solution by Trellidor SA. We've got so many of these installed in major malls and commercial shopping centers in Lagos. I shared these stuffs in 2015 including their Clearguard solution https://www.nairaland.com/1588017/nexthome-builders-2014-2015-new/39#39735792

Whenever we share stuffs like these, I always feel very bad because of the way people see us in this country. We look like ape right?

Ghana shaming us

Trellidor - South African, right? So, I need to contact a dealer? It will be imported?

How do i get customized installations for my build?

In the Ghanaian clip, seems I can walk into that workshop and get everything ordered and installed. It's just a backyard artisan, doing his thing, not fazed by lubrication and rivets.

Thanks for your help but appreciate if you can point to a similar setup in Nigeria.

Found the original video - Ghanaians shaming us ...

Anyone able to do this, I need at least 9. Please.

Focusmind:
A lot of old houses in Ire akari estate have this type of burglary, especially for their large glass entry doors and it is still functioning.

It is a far better choice for men anything. But getting an artisan that could do it well now seems difficult. You will be advised to go with the norm.

Thanks. Also to Brabus. We have had these options and there is a ready market if only someone makes a go of it.

Price might not be an issue as well - you only need to retrofit one such window per room.

When/why did we lose this ability to make things we used to make before? I expect our artisans to be innovative and embracing the challenge of improving it, not giving up.

Why do we settle for the 'norm', when the consequences of 'going with the norm' is ... people getting burnt alive in their houses. Think about this for a minute.

michlins:
have you seen this work or basing your opinion on YouTube videos. There's a reason home owners stopped requesting for it.


This burglary has issues with frequent maintenance and repair. Being that its movable parts are just screws, you need to keep applying grease else,a hungry adult can't open it

I'm surprised at this lack of ambition. These hurdles are not insurmountable. There are a million moving parts in a typical vehicle for which lubrication has been cracked.

What's the difference between this and the larger sliding doors for terraces?

Anyone else interested in running with this as a business, please drop your details here.

Especially if produced as a retrofitted replacement for those death traps we have seemingly made the norm, you will have a ready market here - starting with mine.

I humbly admit now that MBA was/is a scam and a carefully crafted fraud.

And, apologies for the curses and abuses? What happened to people like you, man?

It would help others to learn what could lead someone to that very dark place you were, where you revelled in dishing out venom and evil curses on behalf of something that was evidently a scam.

Architectsly:
Good day, let me also add my 3bedroom comfortable design to ur gallery and u are free to contact me for more details.

Zero 81 three 67 four 12 three 8

Good stuff.

These are classy design especially for the Northern part of the country where I'm thinking of some 'chalets'. I assume the upper levels are good for terracing/sit-out purposes.

Definitely keep an eye on this.
