For those who may not know, let me give a brief history of the issue.

The area called Gbagyi Villa was formally thought to be part of the permanent site for Kaduna polytechnic. Some say that due to Kaduna politics and it being located in Kaduna South, just a few departments and the housing quarters were built there while the main campus remained in the Northern part with no plan of moving them.

The average Gwari man seeing such large amount of land lying fallow in a developed area knowing fully well that the polytechnic would never move there took it up. They got lawyers, went to court and argued that it wasn't the whole land that was given to the poly that about half still belongs to them. This story seems true because the boundaries they claimed were demarcated by 'boundary trees' which are still there.

They won the court case, and the polytechnic subsequently fenced off their portion. The land was well surveyed and planned out in plots of 100 by 50ft and as usual, such a new layout bordering the most populous area in Kaduna South (Sabon-tasha) was hot cake. At first, people were scared and it was cheap but it rapidly appreciated in value and was bought up.

Now this place is a large area and not just some houses. In fact, it's a community on its own. Worse still, most of the houses there are exquisite personal houses with few under rent. Demolition would throw alot of families (many of which are retirees) into the streets.

Currently there should be at least 1500 - 2500 well built houses there and alot more under construction.
The question is all these houses payed heavily to the state planning agency (KASUPDA) and submitted plans before building. Why is it now that the Government is waking up to put a demolition notice?

This isn't just like demolishing houses, it's like demolishing a whole community and not just any community. It's a community which very soon would be the most beautiful in Kaduna South apart from Barnawa and Narayi high cost
I heard the Sarki and the community are taking the issue to court again. Apart from that, I think they should use the media. We've seen how powerful the media can be. Get pictures and post here, on Facebook and Twitter. Get journalists to cover the story. The Governor can't go ahead with this!

Below are satellite images of the area from Google maps
The first shows the polytechnic (highlighted in blue) and the area (in red). The second and third are closer views of the area to appreciate the housing denity. It's bounded below by a river (the greenish line)

@op what's the duration before repayment and interest rate on the loan (if any)?

AreaFada2:
I have two Non-NLer friends currently joining resources to start a pig farm. Both are in full-time employment. No previous piggery experience.

One of them suggests buying piglets, fatten them up and sell off after about six months. That way, a single full-time employee will do, at least for a start. Both will lend a hand after work and on weekends. About 40 to 50 piglets to begin with.

The other prefers breeding piglets so that they can sell off some of them and fatten some up. That way, the business will grow quicker. He thinks they can manage about 10 to 15 sows for a start.

What do gurus in the house think?

Thanks.

I'm thinking in this direction. Which option was finally chosen?

Good morning house.
I have a little issue. I bought a First Bank WAEC verification pin to change my date of birth on the NYSC portal. The issue is that the DOB it wants to upload from WAEC is also wrong (it's less by a day of my real DOB) and doesn't even tally with that on my original WAEC certificate.
Anyone with an idea of how to solve this??

boboLIL:
go 2mao and print ur slip ...for state. Of deployment.,,, its done by waiting till 3rd week of march...

That's what it should be. But some people already know the states they were deployed to. I want to know how it's done

teejayahmed:
Am still not over the sadness of being posted to my least preferred state.

But I need a shoulder to cry on. So introduce yourself in this format

Name:
Institution:
Department:.
Nickname:

kick off

How did you get to know your state of deployment?

@op pls how does one check his/her call up later?

Is the deployment letter out? How did you know your state of deployment?

Good morning peeps.
I noticed some people already know their states of deployment. How is it done. I haven't been able to print out my slip though

jayloms:
Complete ur registration and make the appropriate corrections afterwards. You may need to purchase a WAEC scratch card to effect this change.

Thanks. Just wanted to be sure I can still correct it after completing the registration

Please this is urgent. My date of birth on the NYSC portal is wrong and the 'refresh DOB' button is not working. Does anyone know how to change my DOB.
Urgent!!!

@op please stop spreading false information to gain traffic. He is certainly not the youngest. I know many who are much younger from Anambra state

OP u are on point. so many people may not understand our plight, the depression and frustration that comes with stagnancy. I have travelled to most of all the states in Nigeria all in search of an internship placement(Just 1yr) the most annoying one was when I went to illorin (UITH) after buying the form for 5k, travelling for over 10hrs by road to d hospital, the risk, d very bad road only to finish the so called interview and only 8 persons were taken from my own speciality(haematology) in a hospital as big as UITH.if the government wants let them look into it as for me, they cannot hold me down. Ahead ahead poultry farming on a larger scale. No dulling!!! Notin is stopping us. We balling hard.

Good one. I would like to contact you as regards the poultry stuff. Sent you a NL email. Pls reply

Good day house and big ups to all contributors especially Ymodulus.
Pls I want to import customized fabrics (not sewn) and ties. I want to know if I would have issues importing them especially with the ban on importation of clothing materials (especially for the fabric). Also, anyone with details of a trusted supplier can share.

@house still waiting for a reply.......

Good day house.
I want to import some fabrics in average-large quantities (some of them are plain and would be sewn in Nigeria). I want to know if the ban on importation of fabrics would affect it.

ernesterioo:
stream 2 is November, 3weeks after stream 1 finish their camp, if ur details is sent dis week, u can still register before the 1 month reg time expires

The thing is that my school is saying that it's too late. Can it be done from NYSC

ernesterioo:
registration last for a month, you can be fortunate like I was during the last batch, my details were sent during the last week of registration

But did you do the pre - registration in your school. Because that's what I missed

ernesterioo:
it not possible, it is ur school that would send ur name to nysc, and nysc would upload it on the Senate list on the nysc portal

so it's not possible for a school to send a supplementary list?

Good day house.
Please is it still possible for someone who missed the school mobilisation to get into the list now?
