KolaShangOne:Its just a suggestion l made, many other people like Madam gabby also made valid contributions to the idea. And l am delighted that YOU have taken the "bold step" to make it a "reality". I hope the owner grants permission to allow us follow it as you go along, ...even if it is just showing ONLY the Roof-part of the building (while cutting-off all the lower parts to prevent identification.... l respect people's privacy a lot )Being "harder' to do .....will diminish with time, as you gain "experience" in doing it, over and over again, refining your technique and generally "advancing" your methods. We learned something. Lastpage! I was wondering on something else! One of those "money-saver" ideas you get before dozing-off! ![]() There is this capping granite/mortar mix that is put on the last Block-level in a building.... on which you place the roof "Wood Beams". Questions: 1.) Is it necessary and compulsory? What are the advantages if used, ...and disadvantages, if not used? 2.) Hollow Blocks tend to swallow a lot of Mortar/Concrete mix as you try to lay the mix on it (bricklayers usually use "broken blocks" to fill such holes, to prevent the Mortar from falling into the holes of the hollow-blocks. In my own opinion, doing this adds to the weight of the building .... but does not really contribute any structural strength to it. So, l am thinking: What if l can use the Cement paper BAGS to block this holes.... and then lay my Mortar or Concrete Mix on it (Just the topmost holes, while avoiding it crossing over to where you have the Block-body itself)? That way, l am thinking one would have: a) Saved on the cost of the broken Blocks used to fill the holes b) Reduced the overall weight of the building c) Achieved your aim of preventing the mortar from slipping down into the Block holes d) Put the Empty Cement Bags to good use instead of waiting for Mallam to come and pack them off! Does this make sense or am l just being silly again? ![]() Lastpage!

erico2k2:Thank you Bros..... but you have to be more specific, on WHAT EXACTLY l am wrong about? Is it on the material make-up? Is it on the comparative strength? Me na small Boyz and except you break it down to my level, l will just be asking Teacher: Pardon! Pardon!! Pardon!!! ![]() BTW: Below is a quote by the original poster, on this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/newpost?topic=3040875&post=46297389 kolaa007:Please take special note of the portion l high-lighted. Thanks, Lastpage! @Brabus: Have you ever seen where the Captain decides he wants to abscond from the class? ![]() |
mavverick:This payment has turned into "Akara Money" ....abi na wetin sef? Na waa O! Abeg make "chariman" Brabus divert some of the Money he is using in building the 4th mainland Bridge and pay this guy-off now? ![]() Lastpage! |
chachanga:You got everything right..... until you ventured into the bolded parts! Let me remind you: "if God was like Man (with all the Anger, emotional frailties and Short-sightedness, e.t.c).... No one will be left alive". This is exactly the difference between "God and Man". Man is infinitesimally powerless (comparatively) but exerts its Muscles, to inflict harm on fellow man". God on the other hand, is infinitely Powerful... yet opt to show "righteous" mercy, forgiveness and understanding! My own prayer is that the "undeserved mercy and forgiveness" of God, will never depart from me and my loved one. What about you? ![]() Lastpage! |
Nina4u:\ I think we are beginning to realize that some people are naturally heartless, in this country! Why is it always this Aluu Community? What manner of Animals originate or live in that place? Why do they so much love SAVAGERY? Lastpage!

luvinhubby:Normally, Money accruing to the Fed. Govt "as reciepts" is paid into the Govt's CBN account. The thieves in the NNPC have opened "Secret Accounts" which the CBN or any Govt official is not aware-of.... and DIVERTED the sales of LNG product into that account, for their personal use. At least about 47 of such Accounst have just been discovered, through thorough investigation You should ask yourself: How does the Fed Govt access its money, placed in an account (the thieves like Dezziani and others) which the Govt is not aware of its existence? If you are still in-doubt, go and ask that Omokere-accomplice of Dezziani, or whatever he is called. MEanwhile, l think the Govt will also be encouraging corruption, (by its own officials), if we dont have FULL TRANSPARENCY on this matter of recovered loot! Using the "court" as an excuse (after parading the suspects, after they admitted to the loot and returned some of it).... is juts what it is: A POOR EXCUSE! We are not begging them to return what they STOLE! We are DEMANDING that our money be returned. Name them, Shame them ...and if they dont return the "established loot", JAIL THEM for 300yrs! Enough of these "kids Glove" with criminals Lastpage! |
All these random shex sef! I hope he also catches HIV! ![]() At 28, you should have a steady GF... not picking Oloshos all over the pl;ace and having shex at 1st visit ![]() Lastpage! |
kolaa007:Okay, l would take it that l am wrong! Not too old to learn. Now, can you please show me some pictures of the uPVC, possibly one where l can see the coupling/internal materials as well. Or just refer me to the manufacturer's website so l can do some reading on my own. Specifically, what material are they made-of? How would they withstand the brute-force of someone trying to remove them from the wall using Chisel or Hammer? Thank you in advance. Lastpage! |
Everybody is saying R.I.P! Nobody is asking about - what killed him? - Who killed him? - Was he a current of former Cult member? - Did he have any quanta with any group/one in recent times? - Was he threatened by anyone/group, in recent times? - Was he killed at home, at a party or where? - Did anyone see or hear the assailant(s), during the murder? - Was anything taken or stolen from him, to eradicate "robbery gone bad"? - Does anyone know his "associations" while in School ...since Cults boys are known to take vengeance within one year of finished the last exams? "Questions" leads to "Answers" .... which point the way forward, to solve the problem and prevent a re-occurrence. ![]() Lastpage! |

cleric:It takes a HUMBLE MIND/SPIRIT to say "I AM WRONG, my apologies please".! Not everyone has that sense of humility! Even Satan the Devil did not.... otherwise he wouldn't have been a "fallen Angel" as of today . ![]() Lastpage! |
Lushka:The Choice should not be between "Return Money" or "Cover-Up" ! The Choice should be between "Return Money" or "Go-to-Jail"! If the Govt actually has PROOF that you are a looter, it needs not be begging you to return the loot, it should be dangling the option of JAIL in front of you and you should be the one begging the Govt, for soft landing, paying interest on the money and apologizing to Nigerians. This sort of secrecy is in itself, a source for further CORRUPTION. Lastpage! |
Nicur:I voted for Buhari and convinced a lot of people to do same. But the reasons given is pure lunacy! In a related development, the Presidency, last night, defended its decision not to release the names of those who returned the funds. It cited the fact that while some of those who returned money were not in any way guilty of any offence, publishing the names could deter those contemplating returning ill-gotten funds in their custody. *Is Buhari telling us that publishing names of those who "RETURN MONEY", under same heading, makes them a THIEF? *Is Buhari telling us that he is succumbing to BLACKMAIL? *Is Buhari telling us that it is good and virtuous to "shield such information" from citizens? *Is Buhari telling us that without publishing names of those who "returned money" with how much they returned, we are supposed to TRUST HIM as declaring the exact amount he collected... with what he published? *Is Buhari telling us that if l see money on the ground, and returned it to the authorities, by publishing my name and how much l returned, that makes me a thief? *How is telling your Citizens the TRUTH.... classified as criminalising somebody who returned what does not belong to him...but to the Nation? *Buhari should be told that anyone who supports corruption, directly or indirectly, is also CORRUPT. Please, l am getting disappointed in Buhari by the day! At this rate, l dont think he would have any goodwill left, by 2019. Buhari may go the same way of GEJ, men who started with tremendous goodwill, and fritted it all-away in a short space of time! At the end of the day, just as we were left with a Choice between "Two Evils" (Buhari Vs Jonathan), we might be faced with the same quagmire, in 2019. What a disappointment! ![]() Lastpage! |

STFUand4kMeHARD:No problem! Go and return the money you stole..... then go rub Tinubu, your nightmare! ![]() BTW: These are the same people who pass laws that we must go CASHLESS and imposes penalties on poor people, for using CASH! The crook kept #12Million inside his house, like Barkin Zuwo of "Govt-Money in govt-House" fame! I hope Kwarans still have their sachet of pure water and stones..... ![]() Lastpage! |
Nnysher:FUNNIEST STATEMENT OF THE YEAR! Clowns have really taken over Nairaland! okay, l understand! Social Media has redefined what "greatness and vision" means!

FastShipping:Infact, he should have complimented it with a Costing of various sizes of the PVC Windows. But l think l know what he is talking about. It is those Whitish, rubber-looking window frames used Abroad (mainly). We dont particularly have "insulation" as our greatest priority, when installing Doors and Windows! Our first priority is not even beauty, but SECURITY! You dont want "badt boyz" using ordinary screw-drives to remove your window... in broad-day light! ![]() In advance Climes, once they pass the "public perimeter" and step inside your space, alrm automatically notifies the Police station and before they can locate a window, Police is asking them to FREEZE .... or be SHOT! You even have the option of shooting them yourself, when you 'stand your ground'! So, they can afford to place "aesthetics and insulation" as top priority But in Nigeria, its sad watching people being held at the mercy of criminals for as long as 8hours.... without any HELP! ![]() Having said all the above, one can still use it and incorporate 'iron bars" on the window. It will reduce the aesthetics but there is always a way out. Lastpage! |
Tallesty1:Why are you surprised? Very Rich folks are the MOST STINGY things to ver grace the face of the earth! That is how they got rich in th first place, robbing the poor on one hand and being tight-fisted on the other hand! Even when they "give', they are doing it for "karimi/come-see-me" or just to spite the poor person ![]() Lastpage! But, WHERE IS THE DADDY/FATHER? Dont tell me he is in a beer parlour having a bleeping Cold beer? He may actually be hustling as a Bus Conductor, Construction-Site artisan or even an Okada rider! Recently, Society tends to denigrate "Manhood" with these "one-sided pictures of humanity" where the man is portrayed as "irresponsible" and the woman as 'long-suffering". Women and their "cunning", ehn? ![]() Bull-shyte! ![]() |
mex2bad:God bless you real good! "NOTHING" is IMPOSSIBLE.......... if we are ready to think outside the "box". Just look at the neatness, the straight lines, not to mention the reduced weight and cost! Way to go joor! I hope "Builder Kowope" has learned something instead of using "cut & paste" pictures/mnemonics to abuse me? Nobody knows it all. ![]() Lastpage!

PassingShot:Thank you very much for your opinion. Majority of Nigerians are HYPOCRITES! I have asked the same question.... and many more: 1.) If that report was very important and a panacea to most of the problems we have in this country, why did Jonathan Goodluck who funded it with our tax, his Party which supported it, not implement it for a whole year when they kept it in their archive? 2.) Why is it that it is "Secessionist elements" (IPAD, AVENgers and their senior brothers in the PDP and the Eastern part of the country ar ethe ones who want the Report implemented NOW? 3.) Why is it that these people think that the report can be implemented in "pockets" ...and not as a whole? (having conceded that some of the proposals are plain dumb!). Why did they not insist a good job be done in the first place? 4.) How is it that people think that the Report will solve the "most important" of our problems? For example: Hoe does the Report solve the problem of Power? or Petrol Scarcity? ... when we all know that these problems are caused by CORRUPTION! or does the report provide a solution to the problems of corruption, which is better than how this administration is tackling it? 5.) When the reports preaches "Autonomy" of LGA's, l wonder whether those advocating for such know the implications, without first solving some knotty issues in the constitution. LGA's a the highest level of corruption in this country and we seem not to take notice. Even now that they dont have autonomous accounts, what have they done with the money they have been getting all these years? The just collect their allocation and share it ..or loot it and use it to buy houses abroad. 6.) they said the Confab report was produced by Nigeria's best minds! People who have excelled in their chosen profession That is laughable. Yes, they may have "excelled" but these group of people are the actual cause of our problems, ab initio! A Phd holder who is clueless and a grand-father of corruption? "Military Generals" or NSA who looted money meant for the Military? A Senior Lawyer like FFK, who take illicit and corrupt funds? What about Olisah Metuh? All these people have excelled in their chosen profession but that does not make them "exceptional", as events have shown! They are no better than ordinary thieves. I can go on forever, to show that the Confab was a waste of resources, a "boys come and Chop" jamboree where Jonathan used money to silence people's conscience. He hand-picked his "yes-men" into that confab and it was a confab of people that looted/destroyed Nigeria, one way or the other We tend to put things upside down in this country. Aside Corruption, which is the "producer" of most of our problems, our immediate problem is the "criminal Constitution" that was written for us by Criminals, further amended by Military thieves like IBB, Abdusalam, OBJ... and foisted on the country by these criminals. That Constitution was DESIGNED TO PERPETUATE CRIMINALITY AND PROTECT "EXECUTIVE" CRIMINALS. Until "we the people" draft another constitution that protects and puts "the people" FIRST above all others, we will be building our house on a Fraudulent foundation. Infact, it is that fraudulent Constitution that criminals are currently using, to escape Justice. Let us amend all shady-areas of that constitution ... or just write another one. It is only after that, we can now "confab" based on a sound foundation. How can you have state Police when even now, some Governors have turned themselves to tin-gods, without a State Police yet, using their "constitutional powers"? Are we supposed to create more problems, while trying to solve smaller ones? Over five Decades of "resource imbalance", cannot be built-upon, by implementing resource control. It will never happen. We need "correct" those imbalances in our resources, before any part of the country can even think of sitting on a resource that used to belong to the whole country. I know the greedy ones want it all for themselves "right now" but they should understand that its either we all have it for now (while imbalances are being corrected) or no one would have it. BTW: I am not against the President "reading" the Report....there will certainly be thing she can "appreciate" in it, even if just to understand "the plot" of these people. ![]() Lastpage! |

HungerBAD:Is it not ironical to you, that Atiku, who was a former V/President of this country, who owns a PRIVATE University in this country, could not send his own daughter, to a Nigerian University, ....not even his own private University? Where is the "good move" in that...... despite all the looted funds and criminal scams like "Haliburton Scandal", that he has been involved with! Nigerian"leaders" are criminals, the Senate is occupied by Criminals..... and most of the Citizen-followers are more than D@AFT! Just see how you'all are celebrating mediocrity? ![]() Otherwise, how on earth do you expect a public official saddled with revamping our educational sector, to do a good job when he/she would not even allow their own children to attend such "good jobs' they are supposed to deliver for the citizenry? Have we ever heard that the V.P or President of the US or Britain of Germany attended a foreign University? Why because they want their children to attend a good school and hence will do everything to ensure their "LOCAL Schools are well funded and developed. Ditto for the Health sector! Even our Minister for health will quickly run abroad to treat "common flu"..... while tens of millions are left to die in our "Mortuary Hospitals". Failure of Leadership is the worst form of FAILURE a nation can experience. Lastpage! |
segcymoor:Oga Segcy, This will be interesting! Can we have more pictures, from various angles, to really appreciate what is on ground?

? You see maddened 'Mallams' running amok in d north claiming their sacred rights to sever heads at the slightest provocation in the defence of religious ideology and a weak deity who's got no balls to come to town and defend himself?
