All Progressives Confidence.
If he couldn't remember that, how are you sure he could remember his phone number?

The same way Jonathan addressed Jega as INEC President on CNN.

Pamcrest:
For sure, I abhor death wish on another human being......that's unhealthy politicking, But in Nigeria, throwing insults at d opposition is rampart in both PDP n APC. It's bad, no doubt, but that's our way here. People, myself inclusive, call GEJ clueless, drunkard, inept so if u can dish it, u should be able to take it too! But no death wish pls!
My humble submission

There is a difference between what the regular Joe on the Social Media says and what a presidential aide says.


Have you seen Buhari or his aides use gutter language on GEJ?

calebo101:
Buhari is mad. Yes na me talk am, He is MAD. i repeat am again.

so he cannot bear the insults of Nigerians yet na dem criticize Jonathan pass.

It's high time someone lets him know he's just one among millions of Nigerians.

Jonathan is called clueless, his wife is called shepopotamus, has Jonathan ever reacted? so this is how he intends to clamp upon freedom of speech if he smells power abi

If Buhari can not bear the heat he should get out of the kitchen. Rubbish

There is a difference between criticism and insult. Jonathan himself stooped so low to say Buhari did not remember his phone number.

Fayose's death-wish adverts are height of irresponsibility that can provoke anyone, least of all a General.

Look, if I were Buhari, hell would have visited Fayose by now

Frankly, Buhari has taken enough.

If I were a general of Buhari's standing and cult-followership, I won't take half of this.

Anyone can go to hell!

Mrbigman1:
Hahahaha!
Not funny. I bet i'd get u bookmarked.
Now am not even calling him to sweep a vote. If he hot 10% last election and can sweet 30-40 which is possible in Kano, and maybe Kastina, what re u not saying?
The game is one, the silent one is making his moving off media, the farmers, the korblers and the market women re not online, they dnt read dailies and they myt not have time to watch news but they feel the impact directly better than you and I seating in the comforts of the office and thos re people who the PDP re campaigning to get not u and me.

Osibanjo tried doing it but I laughed cos it was to early to do such and the trick of election shift is working for PDP.
While the owners of the house is asleep, the rats and the ants re working and this might be there game plan not coming to shout said buhari.

Politicians knows dia work better just the way the mechanics knows ur car better than you.

And please no name calling, we re here to exchange ideas

I never said he'll not get 10% in Kano. What I said is Shekarau/Mohammed Abacha do not have 10% of Buhari's popularity.

You said GEJ would win Kano, and my pooint is that can't happen. And I said he won't even get 30%.

Which farmers, market women are you talking about in Kano? Who told you my projection is based on Social Media/Newspapers? I'm telling you the historical reality of Kano and you're saying Social Media.

OAUTemitayo:
With due respect sir, you are totally wrong.
There is no way the election result will be a close call.
If Jonathan get 40% in South west, it will be the Eight wonder of the world.

I pray so.

Mrbigman1:
U know the game in there?
The guy has gone to do a grassroot politics in an APC when they re away from home, he dnt need to get a 100% votes dia, if he gets 3 outta 6, have he not shared it with the king?

Apc should stop the media game and come back home, funny enough they might just loose in there zones surprisingly.

My prediction on his move is, if he gets lagos and Kano which his using mohammadu Abacha and former governor (shekaru) and Sunusi to play, he might destabilize APC.
Only maybe

Oga, if you ever imagine Buhari losing in Kano, then you're not qualified to discuss politics.

Actually, Kano is surer for Buhari than even his home state of Katsina (which is equally sure anyway).

And if you think Mohammed Abacha and Shekarau have 10% of Buhari's popularity in Kano, then it shows the level of your knowledge.

Then you mentioned Sanusi? ...don't let me laugh.

If Buhari loses in any of the North West states, I will quit Nairaland.

Carmal90:
nice one but ogun is for pdp... Dont also 4get ur promise of denouncing ur nairaland membership when gej get 30 percent vote in kano state

Definitely. I can even reduce the threshold.

South West is a close call, I must admit.

Much as I want Buhari to win this region, I will not be surprised if GEJ wins by slight margin.

Osun is decidedly for Buhari, while Ekiti is for GEJ.

Ogun, Lagos, Oyo and Ondo are tight with Ogun and Lagos slightly tending towards Buhari and Oyo and Ondo slightly tending toward GEJ.

It's a tough race there and I don't see landslide for anyone. Looking like 52-48, with either of them having a chance of coasting home 52-48.

In any case, PDP must be deceiving themselves to think they will win NW and NE. If they get 25% in NW, that will be a miracle.

tswitch:
I saw this way before I read Guardian so are tou telling us that El Rufai is high on something by posting seemingly "fake pictures"?

https://m.facebook.com/nasirelrufai/posts/10155235541825128

El-Rufai also goofed. Or is he above goofing?

Kenai:
This is why I maintain majority of Buhari's supporters are stark illiterates who are severely hollow in the reading department.
If you had any reading skills, you would have realized that this retraction is Guardian admitting that Buhari's so called 'London interview' was FAKE.
Wake up from your slumber and read, you nitwit!

God forbid this country falling under the hands of these illiterate, brainless mutts known as APC. These people are the worst thickos in cyberspace!
Herd mentality!
Shame!

You are the illiterate here after all.

Guardian's retraction is simply saying this: "We are sorry for attributing a (not-so-recent) picture of Buhari in Abuja as one taken in London". It never implied he was not in London.

It depends on how dry the area is and how high you want it to be.


I spent roughly 1.5m on this foundation plus filling. It's a 3-bedroom bungalow. This is somewhere around Ajah Lagos

Obiagelli:
“If he can live here for five days moving with patrol vehicles
that we paid for, let him go and spend five days in Chibok
and he will know what bondage is,”

God bless fashola for this quote.

Did the president deliver apapa road yet?

Fashola's got punches!

Interestingly, most of these car brands we turn eyes to check twice in Lagos and Abuja are commonplace in Dubai. Rolls Royce and Porsche are so common.

Range Rovers (latest editions) are pure water like EOD in Nigeria.

One guy casually came to shop with this Rolls Royce and I took shot.

CityNG:
Not sure how OP intends to use it but it's popular to have a BQ for income generation from tenants and to give the property a live in look during absences for safety.

You guessed right.

Dad has actually been asking me to rent out the BQ when completed to have someone to be taking care of the house(pending the time my Mum moves in), but IKm not so inclined to it.

shadyemmanuel:
The Jarus whose intelligent comments i used to read on NL is nt dis one were is d real article boy?

Yes, it is the same Jarus.

Any problem with that?

Or does someone stop being "intelligent" when his opinion, for once, differs from yours?

Ibime:
Jarus are you selling e-version? Make I learn one or two things about the Nigerian corporate world.

Yes, ebook version available sir.

Send me a Facebook PM.

oyb:
Are you propositioning a lady of the night?

No mind the architect jare. Na overdo

Front view from the plan.

Took this shot from my plan.

That's the floor plan

PastorKun:
At the rate at which muslims are converting to christianity, there would be no more muslims left in Nigeria in the next 50 years.

Yes. Someone said that 50 years ago too when our grandparents were being forced to convert to Christianity before being given education.

diluminati:
so you mean with this level you have achieved, you still believe beer parlor talks?

Oga, I saw sms shared to Christian colleagues by a chartered accountant friend from the Niger Delta. I gave up on this country.

The pic was sent to me by one of junior brothers few weeks ago.

See people don dey paste posters on my fence sef. I hope no be PDP poster sha.

Construction project is not easy at all.

I have spent about 13m to date on this Kwara project. To think I set out to do something small of about 2.5m when I started!

This is the shop. Yet to be completed.


I slowed down on the Kwara project after finishing the main building.

Yet to complete the BQ, the shop and the gate house. But I have roofed them. I spent 700k on roofing BQ+Shop+gatehouse, compared to 950k I spent to roof the main building.

That's the BQ at the back in this pic. It's 2 semi-detached one-bedroom flats.

CityNG:
Shops: Most excellent idea. If you construct the shops to your taste, have a rental agreement that clearly specifies the allowed tenants performance and what merchandise can be sold, hours of operation,etc then I foresee n issues. I plan on doing similar.

Plans: I am intricately aware that changing plans during construction trickles down to other things and construction costs go out of control. I am being deliberate and taking time to perfect my drawing and will have a plan that will not change during construction to save cost.

Congratulations on finishing this and then moving onto another one.

The shop is not for rent. It's for my Mum just to have something to keep her busy in the neighbourhood.Just to sell soft drink/groceries on small scale.

aishaquest:
I followed this link from your current project. This is a lovely home. This one seems larger than your Lagos project, or is that just because it is not finished? Thanks for sharing. I find construction journals interesting. I would have liked to have seen a journal on the decorating of the inside, or is that too personal? If not, maybe you can do it with the current one? This whole process is fascinating to me, from beginning to end.

Also, I'm curious about the BBQ. Can you show a pic of this one or perhaps the one from your current project when finished? I'm wondering if it is the same as BBQs here in the US. Outdoor kitchens are very popular here.

This one very large.This was done on two and a quarter plots. The Lagos one is on half plot,although the cost of buying the half plot in Lagos (in 2014) was ten-times the cost of buying the 2 1/4 plots in Kwara (which I bought in 2009)

I can afford to do mansion in my village,not Lagos

Lagos is just temporary home.

tsiriman:
Hello sir God is making you bigger and bigger. One in kwara and another in Lagos. Weldone

Please how much is the cost of the foundation because I'm planning on buying abd building on a waterlogged land but i want to have an idea of how much it will cost to do a raft foundation like this. Please how much did the foundation only cost.

Thank you.

Amin. Thanks

Spent 1.5m on this foundation. The place is not so waterlogged though. It's semi-dry

Heard about him when he died in 1999 or so. Read a soft-sell that talked about his wealth and pictures of his exotic cars. Rumour then had it he got money through diabolical means.

But our pastors say he has not been paying OIC due for 6 years now and need 4 more years to continue so that OIC will expunge Nigeria from their membership after 10 years of non-payment.

And I saw some educated folks sharing that on whatsapp and BBM!
