[left]]Dear nairalanders
I will like to know.

Is a tokumbo car really worth the price tag as I am planning to get one soon and also with the current foreign exchange market rate, and also going through the stress of registration and the necessary paper work.


How long will an average tokumbo take before it starts developing major faults and needing repairs from wear and tear.

What are the benefits of buying a tokumbo over a well maintained naija used car

And lastly, are tokumbo cars really buy and drive?, are they problem free as the are expected to be?, did you spend and any money on any fix after driving off the car stand?.

Thanks in advance for your help and contributions

Even if you cannot afford a tracker, hid an old iPhone somewhere in the the car. You always track it.
Also, a street electrician can connect an old school immobilizer for your car for less thank 2k. It’s better than nothing

The iPhone part..
It's genius bro

Well, I have a brother who was leaning terrazzo, tiling, cement works and POP before gaining admission to study Physics Electronics at a federal University. He started going to sites to work on Saturdays and Sundays, then he would return to his boss during holidays. Today, he's a boss and winning big and small contracts everywhere with his apprentices doing most of the work. Stay focus

Thanks 4 ur response man.
Ur brother is really doing well.

My only issue is that av gone deep into plumbing cus I started learning b4 I got admission even though I had always wanted to be an electrical engineer.
Picking up another skill is not really an issue bt u know wat the say na..
U can't serve two masters at a time.
:-

Well.
I started learning plumbing immediately b4 my 100l even though the learning process is really slow.
I also learnt how to do laundry business though I left it cus of the high level of competition in my area.
Am also thinking of learning electrical/electronic repairs cus thats what am studying in the university sef.
Whenever I go to sites to learn plumbing with my oga, n maybe the site engineer or contractor finds out that am student studying electrical engineering, the will be like wat am I doing as a plumber since plumbing is under mechanical.

Well I just believe that no knowledge is a waste, n am still interested in learning more skills.

The plan is to not depend on anyone for anything after my NYSC.

I also will like more contributions on other skills that I could venture into . Thanks

Op.
2m can hardly be enough bt u could fix just 1 room (plaster, electrical, plumbing, ceiling) were you'll be staying out of the three, with 1 toilet n kitchen
4get palor n dinning 4 now..
Don't cheapen out on foundation n roofing.
This life na small small

No, it can't.

As a Project Manager, let me list what you might likely need;

(1) FOR ERECTING STRUCTURES-

(a) 4,000 blocks (@300 each)= 1.2 million

(b) 100 bags of Cement (@2,800 each)= 280 thousand

(c) 5 lorries of sands (@70,00 each)= 350 thousand

(d) 6 lorries of granite (@40,000)= 240 thousand

(e) Iron rods (lot)= 300 thousand

(f) Wood (lots) for lintel & column casting= 200 thousand

(g) Workmanship= 400 thousand

TOTAL= 2.97 million

Then you can add about that amount (3 million) more for the roofing and minimal finishing.


Thank you.

Nna err..
This materials are expensive sha

Mohbola:
They're free except you don't want to use your data to download

So won't I use Data to do the downloading

ZesusHVWritter:
You go need to run diagnostics on your device data consumption.
Download network monitor mini from playstore. It takes a while to setup, but what you need activated is the traffic breakdown to help you monitor data in and outflow. This way you have a proper analysis of which app is using the data.

Thanks alot

ZesusHVWritter:
There is no way that data consumption is happening for Google's activity alone.
Check your playstore settings to see if you allowed auto download/update for apps.

av checked it
It's not on auto update

Emmysky:
As i said, download the apps from playstore again on your device

.
Nna err..
Waste of mb

My Google play service is consuming so much data.
This is how much I have spent just in 4 day.
Once my data is on, it automatically starts reading.
I really need help.
Phone is tecno pouvoir 3plus

Emmysky:
There are one of 3 reasons why those apps are not installing:
1. Incorrect Signature: This mostly happens when you are updating the app from a modded source especially games. For example you download candy crush from play store and later you see a modded version on some site with unlimited lives and whatever. if you try and update it directly, you will get that error screen unless you delete the original one and install the modded one which will clear all your progress and data in the game. This is because in the process of modifying the app, the modder decompiles it and then change values in it. When recompiling, they can't use the same signature the original maker used, it's not possible hence they use their own signature to recompile leading to the signature mismatch when installing. Only way to bypass this is to disable "Android Signature verification" but that's not an option now neither is it the cause of the error you are receiving now.

2. System Architecture mismatch: When installing these apps from play, Playstore auto detects your system Architecture and installs the one best suited to your CPU, be it armeabi v7a, armv64-v8a, x86, x64 et cetera. If the other device has an arch different from yours and you try to install it, you'll get the error and it is mostly common in system apps. Unless the app dev made his app support multiple architectures in which case you'll be able to send to any device and still work. This error mostly occurs with games especially the high-end one's like fortnite.

3. The app doesn't support your android version yet: For example, You try to send a game from a 4.4 kitkat device unto an Android 10 device and you haven't updated the app in a while, chances are that you'll run into that error of "App not installed" due to android version unsupported. Vice versa is the case when an app no longer support older android version as it us typical nowadays for most app to drop support for android 5.0 and below. Only way to fix this is to directly download it from playstore on your device.

This was longer than planned but wanted it to be clear.. cheers

So pls what is the solution

GrandMufti:
It won't install. Use playstore

Done all of the above.
Its still not working

Lexusgs430:
Don't install apk files, install from playstore. This apps are available on the playstore, free.......

I know the apps r on playstore bt they are definitely not free

sexylassie2:
Go to Settings → Security → Unknown Sources. Enable Unknown Sources. And then try installing App

if it works tell me thank you....it is just something i learnt

This is what my security looks like
