Firm begins construction of 30-floor luxury residences

12 November 2023

Messrs Tetramanor Limited has begun the construction of a 30-floor residential building in Eko Atlantic City, Lagos, which will increase housing provision. The ambitious project known as TM HighGardens consists of 82-units luxury apartments in one, two, three bedrooms, four, five-bedroom maisonette and penthouse. The tower is one of the most iconic buildings in Eko Atlantic City due to the façade and one of the tallest buildings in the country.

Specifically, the edifice located in the Harbour Lights district of the Eko Atlantic city, having views of the Marina, port and waterways, will offer amenities such as high-speed elevators, office space, 24-hours security, CCTV/backup power transformer, bar and lounge, gym/salon, super-fast Fibre optics connectivity, elevated pool and garden/playground and others.

The project has a four years’ timeline for delivery with construction starting in 2023; it will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2027.
Speaking at the commencement of piling works for the project, the Project Engineer for TM HighGardens, Mr. Chibuike Ikpa, said the pilling work is expected to cover three months, and provide the expected solid foundation for a project of such magnitude. Ikpa said all would-be subscribers would be given value for their investment.

The Main contractor for the project, Mr. Wael Mansour, said the project will boast condominiums and penthouses with standard facilities and amenities, two underground basements that will act as parking floors. He reiterated that the project would offer entertainment areas.
Mansour said the project would also provide a mini village, which is self-sustained and will be 125 metres high. “It is a state-of-the-art building in terms of design, structural, architecture, mechanical and electrical standards.

“There will be safety and hazard codes included in the buildup components and as required in Eko Atlantic. It will be a face value for the city. ”
Mansour, who doubles as the Director, Almansour Engineering & Contracting Limited (ALM), said about 144 piles of 30 metre length each and one metre diameter are planned for the project.

“This will sustain the building in terms of wind factor in Lagos area, which is large. We have taken all the measurements and studies in terms of geo-technical engineering, carried out a lot of tests including soil tests. The quality of construction will be of the highest and non-negotiable standard of concrete strength whether is underground or over-ground.

“The steel reinforcement and concrete are tested in intervals. We will deploy post-tension technology used mostly in high-rise towers with multinational companies giving us guarantee and warranty for the products and designs. The high level of construction will not be compromised by any factor or regulations,” he said.

The system is called Bio Digester Toilet. It's an improved technology in the treatment and management of human waste and wastewater. This system effectively takes away all challenges that are associated with the conventional form of waste management.

Once you have it in place,

✔you no longer call trucks to come evacuate human waste,

✔it doesn't smell

✔it doesn't attract flies or crokroaches,

✔just a small space is needed for it,

✔it's eco-friendly

✔and doesn't contaminate the groundwater

The advantages of Bio Digester toilet are as follows:
No Dislodging of Human Waste
Cooking Gas can be generated from it
It's eco-friendly
No foul smell
Needs only a small space
Suitable for any soil condition
No contamination of groundwater etc

Their style, mostly for single family homes, is really interesting to me. It's similar to other Caribbean architecture, and African, but it seems to have a distinct style. It's like an African-Dutch-Spanish vibe. And mind you, I don't even really care about single family homes (I have no interest in owning one).

But check this out.

The style is the same whether it's a mansion or a small countryside house.

I haven't seen a building cost quote that I believe yet. But I suspect it costs 30k - 70k USD to build. And I think that price could allow up to a 2-story, 5-bedroom home.

Pictured: Russian Su-27 multi-role 4th generation fighter jet flying over the Black Sea.

Two 🇷🇺 Russian Su-27 fighter jets shot at and struck the propeller of a 🇺🇸 U.S. military "Reaper" surveillance drone on Tuesday, causing it to crash into the Black Sea in an incident condemned as "reckless' by the U.S. military.

"Our MQ-9 aircraft was conducting routine operations in international airspace when it was intercepted and hit by a Russian aircraft, resulting in a crash and complete loss of the MQ-9," U.S. Air Force General James Hecker, who overseas the U.S. Air Force in the region, said in a statement.

“Two Russian Su-27 aircraft conducted an unsafe and unprofessional intercept with a U.S. Air Force Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance unmanned MQ-9 aircraft that was operating within international airspace over the Black Sea today.

At approximately 7:03 AM (CET), one of the Russian Su-27 aircraft struck the propeller of the MQ-9, causing U.S. forces to have to bring the MQ-9 down in international waters. Several times before the collision, the Su-27s dumped fuel on and flew in front of the MQ-9 in a reckless, environmentally unsound and unprofessional manner.

This incident demonstrates a lack of competence in addition to being unsafe and unprofessional.

US elite meltdown over Tucker Carlson’s Russia trip.

Since it became known about the arrival of former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson in Russia for an alleged interview with President Putin, the American elite has not stopped expressing their outrage on social networks. One suggested blocking Tucker's entry back to the United States, and another is building conspiracy theories about the American journalist's ties to the Russian government.

Why is the American elite burning with rage? Why are they afraid of the truth?🤔

Channel 12 reports that today was Ben Gurion Airport’s busiest day since October 7.

Some 30,000 people are departing from Israel’s main travel hub today, as more people are released from reserve duty, more airlines resume operations to the country and prices tick down.

Large international carriers- KLM, Delta, Lufthansa, Emirates etc will NOT land there. International travelers will still go to MMA, ikeja.

He should not waste scarce public funds on that.

Get rich, private sector Nigerians to build it. It will only serve to private jets and helicopters. It's solely for local air travel.

Where to Get Alkaline Water in Nigeria: Your Ultimate Guide

As the pursuit of a healthier lifestyle gains momentum, the significance of alkaline water in Nigeria cannot be overstated. With its array of health benefits, including anti-aging properties, colon-cleansing benefits, immune system support, hydration enhancement, improved skin health, weight loss assistance, resistance to certain cancers, and other detoxifying properties, alkaline water has become a wellness trend worth exploring.

Understanding the Detoxifying Power of Alkaline Water:

The human body accumulates acid wastes from various sources, such as animal proteins, stress, and toxic emotions. These acid wastes can lead to constipation, sluggish circulation, and overall dehydration. The liver, a vital organ in the detoxification process, functions optimally in an alkaline environment. Alkaline water aids in maintaining a balanced pH level, supporting the liver's ability to detoxify acids efficiently. This process becomes hindered when the body remains chronically acidic, leading to a cascade of health challenges.

Indeed, all other types of water being acidic compound the challenges that the body may already be faced with. In next week Thursday’s edition of The Guardian Newspaper, specific diseases that alkaline water has effectively been shown to enhance treatment with supplements and diet will be showcased.

How Alkaline Water Works:

Alkaline water, with a pH level higher than neutral tap water, is believed to provide numerous health benefits. This ionized water is thought to aid in neutralizing acidity in the body. The pH level of normal tap water is 7, which is neutral. Alkaline water typically has a pH level of about 8 or 9. It is believed that alkaline water helps people with excess acidity as it helps neutralize the acid in the body, thanks to its alkaline nature.

There are ways to increase the alkaline properties of water, such as using special filters, faucet attachments, and additives that raise the pH levels, transforming normal tap water from a neutral pH to alkaline.

Where to Find the Best Alkaline Water in Nigeria:

Now, if you're wondering where to buy alkaline water in Nigeria, look no further. Your journey to optimal well-being begins with choosing the right alkaline water.

PAQ:
A shit box is a car of poor quality & standard. Toyotas are not Luxury cars and they dont claim to be, they have their Lexus brand for that, which is at par with Luxury brands. There is a reason why they are popular, sell so well and maintain very high resale values even more than luxury cars. You think Americans love a vehicle because the name sounds sweet? They cover the highest mileage on road with their vehicles, they know their cars, just like they know their guns. They are Toyotas biggest market and have their largest factories. The Corolla is the highest selling vehicle ever.... Their popularity is for a reason; affordability & reliability. They are not meant to be liked by all, but haba even KIA & Hyundai of today cant be called shitboxes if you know the innovations and technologies they have brought into the autonomous world.

Every car manufacturer has issues & recalls, but Toyota has amongst the least, Mazda has been on the lead for the last two years for most reliable car brand. Todays cars are way more reliable across board than cars made 20yrs ago. And i am sure the bad experiences you heard of are not cars made of recent. Respect bro...

True that.

One of the so-called Alaba International market billionaire criminal hard drug barons (who falsely claim to be legit Alaba International billionaire traders) was arrested recently by the NDLEA and other security agencies in major sting operations for using his Victoria Garden City mansion where he lived with his family for methamphetamine (ice or mkpurumiri) production. The drugs are then pushed out and sold within Lekki/Ajah axis and exported through the international airports by the drug mules of the drug barons.


=>https://guardian.ng/news/ndlea-arrests-billionaire-drug-baron-in-vgc-lagos/

Another drug baron from the same Alaba International was arrested in VGC again. Many of these fake and criminal millionaire drug barons have been making methamphetamine in mini laboratories and operating with imported South American drug cartels according to the NDLEA within their houses in housing estates such Ajao Estate, Satellite Town, Festac Town, VGC, Iba New Site, etc, for over 20 years in Lagos and the entire South East in places such as Asaba, Nnewi, Ozubulu, Obosi, Owerri while falsely claiming to be genuine traders and importers.

There's a very little chance of settling into a happy family life in that axis of evil called Lekki/Ajah. Chances of negative influence are super high, for both men and women. There's almost a limitless flow of illicit money there, fuelling a decadent, drug-infested lifestyle.

Yet the money no dey run out. I don't understand what these guys do or how they keep the cash tap running, even though they're always high on coke, loud, molly and some other shit. Surely can't be ordinary 'yahoo' or drug dealing.

My Biggest Regret Is Pushing My Husband To Move Us From Mainland To Lagos Island After Change In Financial Status - Woman

She claims her husband changed his lifestyle after they changed location and he met new friends, started clubbing, always eating out, raising his voice at her now, takes drugs, sleeping in hotels for days, etc.

What advice do you have for her?

mariahAngel:
Hahahahaha
I remember him instantly killing the excitement for me on that thread, after reading through.

I can't cook for someone like sukkot o, because there's no telling what I might do if he dares to criticize my food.

I hope he does not (will not) give his wife too much wahala sha.

sukkot:
wow bro you are the king of research. That review was spot on. And the guy got the same thing. I noticed back then it was like 2 thousand plus.
Now the syrup is in that little silver cup if you look closely

Throwback:
Continue buying up foreign currencies you are not spending in Nigeria, and be expecting the rate to fall.

It is the law of demand and supply at play, when there's no dollars to stock up, everyone will keep their Naira.

The government has allowed a free trade determined by market forces.

It is very very annoying when governors of state will be waiting for the presidency to come and tackle the insecurities in their respective states for them.

They are quick to use the political word - "I am th noe Chief Security of my State". They should exercise the power on the non actors disturbing the peace and harmony of their state.

They should inert it to their respective state laws. Any person caught with this crime - kidnapping, terrorism, banditry and other vices of crimes should be prosecuted and killed if found guilty by the laws.

It seems they are afraid to do that...
