SweetieConstie:What do you expect? SINGLE MOTHER tinz now.... laying "good example" for her three children to follow Looking for a new baby-father nii. ![]() Lastpage! |
HiliaryAutos:^^^^ Quote properly naah? Lastpage! BTW: VIOLENCE has nothing to do with "who born who"! That is just you pandering to the same "sentiments" l mentioned earlier......which block logical reasoning. ![]() |
piagetskinner:Man-hater spotted! Women like you also need to keep their BITCHY behaviour in-check Get over it, if you do same, expect same result and all you can do is insult all men. ![]() Lastpage! |
HiliaryAutos:And would you say the same thing about any WOMAN that raises her hand to slap a MAN, is is slapping her FATHER? Or do you think thats just "so cool"? I think everyone deserves respect, irrespective of what is on their chest or between their legs. They are all HUMANS. Lastpage! BTW: Why do people always appeal to our 'base emotions' in matters like this, by invoking our "Mothers", knowing how much we love and cherish them? Is it that they expect us to love our fathers, less? ![]() |
GogobiriLalas:Now, this kind of narrative is so sublime and exquisite! Nothing more to add..... ....except to say "No to Violence". Lastpage!

metronaija:Just wondering how you got to the point where your own JUNIOR Brother will beat you up (was it a 'beating' or a FIGHT between two weed-smoking adults?), like this? If the arguments gets too heated, why dont you just walk-away from him (knowing that you cant win physical fight with him, being stronger) .... and avoid this sort of public embarrassment? At times, walking-away from dangerous situations does not mean you are WEAK.... it just shows you are INTELLIGENT. The Cliché "He STOOPED,... to CONQUER", comes to mind. ...and dont start this "Domestic Violence" nonsense, on this one! He is not your husband. Lastpage! |
ShowYourCertificate:yea, "if it does not favor or do what you want, just label it as "work of enemies". Very easy-way-out. meanwhile, MEND: “Their (Niger Delta Avengers) sudden emergence has absolutely nothing to do with the Niger Delta struggle but rather a tool by certain elements to destabilise the current government,” MEND said.Words in MARBLE! The next step is for MEND to whistle on these Criminals to the Security Forces. They want to use the ND as a theatre of military operations, knowing it will set the ND back another 3oyrs minimum. Lastpage! |
gbadexy:from the Report, it appears that the Peace mass transit was on his lane while it was the yellow truch that was trying to overtake another vehicle, thereby facing the Peace Mass T...... and on an already narrowed Road, the "Peace" Bus might not even have anywhere to "dive" to, to avoid the oncoming truck. Am l wrong? RIP to the dead but the way we waste innocent souls in this country, it seems Lastpage! |
Okay, for a change of topic, My wifey drew my attention to this and l found it very hilarious! ![]() So, l decided to share it. Its called a Manslater and what it does is "translate" what a WIFE says, into what it should mean (exact) to the husband! [url] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqA037oFfW4 [/url] This other one is odikwa'risky! Just love the part where the children realized "Dad is a dead man walking".....and they raced for it. ![]() [url] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S_O0jAsl3s [/url] I hope we are all "cool" now? Lastpage! |
FastShipping:Noted! Thanks Lastpage! |
AZUH:My apologies Azuh! I was just shocked. Lastpage: *Live beneath your Means. |
AZUH:Hahahahah! you are badt! ![]() You see why one needs to be very careful about "interactions "on this "faceless internet" ? Its is FINISHED! In my case, I thought l was talking to a MAN.... only to realize 'its' a BOY. A miscreant of a boy for that matter! ![]() No wonder! Now its all coming together. Yahoo-yahoo Boy, looking at him now, l can now understand why he is vehemently trashing "sound, certificated education". Case-closed! Am done Lastpage!

Miscellaneous:That would be great! Research-based education brings about unquantifiable development. In the course of my own build, we noticed that we had to use even more water as the Stone dust seems to consume/swallow the water and it dries up very quickly. Now, l am thinking, "all things being equal", if you use the same amount of water in the tow mixes (Sharp sand ...and Stone dust), the Sharp sand will likely come out stronger because the Stone Dust appears to be "starved of water" and like if you starve a sharp Sand mix of water, it will definitely not attain maximum strength. This is just a "postulation" of mine as l dont have "accurate, scientific data" to back it up, having not done any controlled experiment, as you have done. Please keep it at it as you would be contributing something meaningful to the industry. Just do it as a "further project" or if you are in your 1st degree finals, enrol for "higher degrees" and pursue it further on a larger scale, with more time to spare. Lastpage! |
n3xt:Na God-win! I am trying to understand how anyone can expect me to compare, side-by-side, a US/U.K trained Med-Student ....... and some "fantastically uncouth", stow-away Bricklayer in Morocco? ![]() Honestly, this line of reasoning is beyond me! I am proud of what l have done with my life, l keep it "on-the-low" (reason not one single person on NL knows me or have seen me, l deal in "real-life) and l am even more proud of the type of children l have beget and trained/ing. If all fathers were like me, their son wont stow-away to Morroco (of al places on mother earth!) to be doing Bricklayer! ![]() Kids will be kids and l would let this kid continue to run his mouth like the miscreant he is. It is for a reason that American Embassy refuses to give Visa to your type! ![]() Lastpage! |
Miscellaneous:Is there a possibility that the two mixes have different "curing rate" ...and we need to see the results for the standard 28days. If you can create time, it will be god to take the research further, for completeness I am interested in these tests because l am a big fan of Stone Dust (did a four flats, one storey build recently that l did not use Sharp sand at all.... all concrete works were a mixture of Granite, Stone dust, adequate Cement and TAP Water ..... and the result was awesome, though the cost was prohibitive). @Brabus: I am also interested in those ideas of yours. Bring it on pls. Lastpage!

Demainman1:Such is Life! I am humbled. "Some Mothers do have them" ....... as we say! Lastpage! BTW: I dont need respect from any ill-bred, uneducated, stow-away loafer who is just starting life and decides its best to insult those who are better than his father's father! ![]() "Respect" from certain class of miscreants (like Area Boyz, thugs and this oaf claiming he is a professional when he doesn't even know the meaning of such phrase ......... are better discarded because they are actually a "source of ridicule". I know where and from those l get my respect from.... certainly not from low-life's. ![]() |
Edited, double posted! |
Abdulwastexc, permit me to reproduce this post of yours: Abdulwastecx: we have the so called Professionals, such as architect, civil engineer, quantity surveyor etc (with minimum of 5 years university education . These people are trained to solve problem from conceptual stage, they need lots of theoretical knowledge than practical know how. It is a fact that they need about 75% theory to 25% practical.I hope all these hald-educated illiterates on nairaland can understand Pythagoras theorem and apply it to their "trial-by-error" builds! Instead of blaming carpenter 'who though has "experience", is not educationally trained to "THINK or DESIGN"! ![]() BTW: Formal Education is way-different from "snipping pictures" from all over the internet and claiming it as if it were your original idea or property. ![]() Lastpage!

gabbytabby:God bless you Madam. First, l never "condemn" people without education. What l said was that "Work Experience" can NEVER replace "Formal Education". They both have their place in life but like you pointed out, an educated person will eventually gain the "experience" on the job but l cant fathom how an illiterate who refuses to go to school, will acquire a first degree! ![]() Due to truancy and/or the circumstances of life, we all cant have top-notch education but l would rather educate my own children to a minimum of a first degree (I have one who is almost finishing Medical School overseas), than build houses for them or spoil them with Money. I am surprised that these people keep twisting my 'position' and focusing on my person? One went about insulting "Educated/Certificated people and claiming they are not employed or "who education don help"? ![]() I responded that "before you can even table your experience in a Trade, you have to show your CERTIFICATE (no matter how lowly) that shows you have the "basic, pre-requisite education". I used the example of Cleaners, Security Men, Hotel Hands, e.t.c to buttress my point. This people must sit and study to have a "SafePass Certificate".... in western Countries, before they can do any of the above menial jobs In a world of over 7Billion people, how can a minuscule hundred, be used as proof that "Education does not matter or that "Work experience" can replace education? Is this a kind of "age-related jaundice" of the brain or what ![]() The girl whose picture was posted might just "pass through school" without allowing her "education/school" to pass through her (but l dont want to knock her because l dont know her circumstances to the detail). I know that even if you read Yoruba or English and you are sound enough to graduate with 2^1 (as opposed to most children of today who cheat through school and come out with the Certificate but they are actually empty-headed) ... you wont need to carry a placard to earn a living: what is wrong with starting a "neighbourhood lesson" where you teach younger ones and their parent pay you? I have engaged a lot of under-graduates who come to my house to teach my children, when they were very young and they make good money, hopping from one "home lesson" to another, abi l lie? So, how did she end-up with placard, if she is good at what she studied? That is where l think "half-education" comes into play. If hse is soundly educated, her mind and brain will propose better options to her than this undignified shame she is putting herself through Again, l find it funny that these illiterates will only use a 'bad example" like this to buttress their failure and inadequacy! What about the hundred of thousands of graduates that work in Shell, Mobil, NNPC, Banks, NLNG, Doctors, e.t.c whose starting salary as a trainee is not less than 200K monthly? How many 2^1 Graduates roam the street in US, UK and other Western climes? Just because Nigeria is ruled by the same class of half-baked ....and stark illiterates like we have foaming in the mouth here, is why some of our Graduates are having it rough but it is not the norm. I have asked that they show me just One Bridge that was "designed and built" by anyone without education, they cant but instead went on a tangential rant! Infact,l cant believe that in 2016, someone will openly say that "Education does not help"? Anyway, on reflection, l realize that the only people who always tow this line of thinking are either stark illiterates or people with "failed/half education (which they say is even more dangerous! )It is sad that even supposedly grown-ups cant differentiate between "having money" and "being educated" and having "work experience". The are not the same thing and are not mutually exclusive but the better person, by a mile-off, is "he who is well educated and made money legitimately from it and gained 'work experience' over ...and with their education". Any fool can have money at anytime (you can even win a lottery! ) ... but it takes time, diligence and dedication to have quality education. And if you are well-educated, it will show in EVERYTHING you do or say. You cant hide it. You will even be a cut above the crowd if you now add "experience" to your education. For example, l work with personnel who have spent +30yrs in the military, who will never rise beyond "Warrant officer 2" till they are honourably discharged (retire).... while a young boy of less than twenty-two years who has a BSc. joins the military as Second Lieutenant! Is it not his "certificated education" that propelled him over and above the "uneducated one with decades of experience"? Why did the one with 30+ years "Experience" not come and claim "l sabi pass am"? ![]() Why have we not have a school cert with fifty years experience, become the Head of NNPC? How many of these dunce foaming in the mouth here will allow a "Chemist" with ten years "shop-trade" experience perform a surgery on you or your spouse, in case of serious illness? why would they insist on a well rounded, University trained and qualified Doctor ![]() How can these guys not get it that "education" does more than just provide a "job-path-way" for people?.... it develops you mentally, it broadens your horizon and make your brain think and work in ways that are "beyond limitations". Honestly, l just laugh at the idiocy of this argument. ![]() Lastpage! Below is a post by @Abdulwastexc , that shows the difference between an "educated/certificated" professional .... and an illiterate Artisan with "experience". These illiterates need to sit down and study the difference properly. |
agarawu23:I never said l had any impact on your "hustle life" in Morroco! That is what "illiteracy cum education" does to you: COMPREHENSION PROBLEMS. The fact that we are not even speaking on the "same plane", is enough proof that l cant bandy-words with you. You just dont get it. Imagine when someone who is still praying/begging for a U.S Visa, ends up by some crooked-route, in Morocco.... asking :Who Education don Epp"? You are a prime example of that apt cliche which says "If you think Education is useless/dangerous, ...TRY IGNORANCE" ![]() " "Old Women always get uneasy when "dry bones" are mentioned in a Proverb". ![]() You and your certificate-less nitwits can keep shoring-up your ego after-all, THERE IS SAFETY IN NUMBERS! ![]() I wont dignify your emptiness by going back and forth with your type. IGNORE BUTTON ACTIVATED. ![]() Lastpage! |
agarawu23:Cheesux Christ! I just saw this post now and l am like: Exactly "what message" is he trying to pass across? Someone here said and l quote: "Old Women always get uneasy when "dry bones" are mentioned in a Proverb" !! ![]() I understand why you are "pained" .....l see your "point" even though it is completely at variance and incongruent with LOGIC. There is a place for "experience only"...... there is also a place for "sound education and experience". But everyone will agree with me that in "sane societies", you wont even have the OPPROTUNITY to show your experience, if you dont have the REQUISITE, BASIC LEVEL OF "CERTIFICATED EDUCATION". The "certificate" allows you to show that you have gone through the training/education (since the Requester/Client/Interviewer wont be there when you were undergoing the "education" , AFTER which you can/will be given the opportunity to SHOWCASE your EXPERIENCE.All those examples you cited up there are just a reflection of your "Upbringing and Pedigree".... trust me, it is shambolic. ![]() Serious people. Serious institutions and Serious projects are not handed over to half-baked, ill-trained, uneducated nitwits! You can take that to the bank. I think you should refer to a Post by @Abdulwastex (some pages back) where-in he itemised succinctly, the differences (and place in the occupational pyramid), of Engineers, Technicians/Technologists and Artisans Lastpage! BTW: Mind you, l am not saying uneducated people have no-sense or contribution, l am just saying[b] they have "limitations".[/b].. when it comes to serious construction, unless yo can show me a BRIDGE "designed and built" by your class of "un-certificated, I-go-manage-am-so" Builders. |
KolaShangOne:Good idea! If it were me, l would use A Power Drill to make/drill holes in the Aluminium part of the Solar Panels and use Aluminium Screws to bolt the whatever l need to "nail" to it, after plugging plastic holders into it. |
nextstep:Thank you for your response. Would you be aware of the "thickness" (not Width/wideness! ) of the beam? I am referring to its "thickness", if you hold a 'flat side' of it with your "thumb and fore finger"! Tnx. |
nextstep:Please what is the dimension of this H-BEAMS (length & thickness) and how much do they COST? Tnx. |
agarawu23:Honestly, l have been trying not to "comment" on this area of discussion for some days because l get riled when l hear people with sub-par level of education, use this line of argument, to console themselves! I can tell you authoritatively that for every little thing you want to do "Abroad", you have to be certified! Even ordinary street cleaner has to do some "Safe Pass" or Training and get issued with a certificate of "training completion", before he or she can sweep that street. Ditto for al menial jobs, like window-cleaning, Security-Gate-man, bus driver, e.t.c You wont even get the opportunity (They wont even consider you) to show-case how good you are at "laying blocks" if you dont have a Builder's certificate and training. First, they would ask to see your "Certificate",ONLY after which ......you can now prove your COMPETENCY in the "practicals" Sebi you said you can drive \construction equipment, right? Did you go for any "formal training" that involves Pen and Paper? Do you have a Certificate to brandish for such training? If not, be you the best operator in the world, you cant even go near a Construction equipment in the "Oyinbo Kontiri". Its only in Africa, especially in Nigeria that "Artisans' compare themselves with trained and well-educated Professional! They are aeons apart, believe me. Lastpage! |
Immatex:FOOLS EVERYWHERE! Eehn! So you dont even know whether the story is True or False.............. yet you spewed all those rubbish up there? And even got 58 likes from 'equally bigger fools'? Hmmm... Fools EVERYWHERE! Fools ti-take-over Nairaland! Lastpage! |
OlowoB:I am alarmed at the Stewpidity of MOST Men! It is okay for a Lady/Female to defend another Lady, whether she is right or wrong .... but what l dont get is when all these foolish Boys rise-up to defend a Lady, not because she is in the RIGHT, but because she is a FEMALE, that's all! First, you all read his response and did you see ANYWHERE where he said he assaulted her? But you are al quick to say HE DID, right? Again, When the Lady reported to the Police and broke her story on Social Media, did you hear, anywhere in her story where she said she was DRUNK, DAMAGED HIS PROPERTY, FOUGHT HIM and DEMANDED FOR 50,000 Naira? The moral of the story is that, Take every story at "face-value" and base your Position on HARD FACTS/EVIDENCE Presented. That is How Judges operate in a Law Court. Too many "she-Men, woman-wrapper" Boys parading themselves as "men", these days! ![]() Lastpage! |
iniestar1:Dont worry, just be gathering your STONES. That is why they are charged to court and UNDER PROSECUTION ...... "To show you what they have stolen". IPOD-#Wailer alert! ![]() Lastpage! |
mmsen:Are you surprised that you NEVER hear of them being sick of a serious ailment or going abroad for Medicals, ...UNTIL THEY ARE CAUGHT AND CHARGED TO COURT? If the poor man's whose wealth was looted does not have the opportunity to go abroad for Medicals, then these Looters should not be afforded same opportunity. If Government officials want Good Medical Treatment and facilities, let them stop looting money meant for Medical infrastructures. Period! Lastpage! |
hnnn:Are you willing to get a Post-dated CHEQUE..... cash-able if and when the person who buys those "Ogogoro-infested" Kidneys of yours use it for the next fifty years? If YES, l can refer you to Baba Lukmon! He damaged his own kidneys drinking the same mixture you use to drink: Paraga, Alomo, Orijin, Jeedi, Dongoyaro soaked in alcohol ! ![]() Lastpage! |
vineyardfarms:Epic! ![]() I guess the GREEDY Geezer will rather die in Prison than return our stolen YAMS! #400 Million! ![]() Some Criminals are "made-in-heaven"! ![]() Lastpage! |
Haaahahaha! I knew it was going to get to this! Standard Procedures: 1.) Loot the Treasury 2.) If you are not caught under a corrupt regime, flaunt your wealth and run your mouth 3.) If you get arrested by EFCC, cry Witch-hunting and ask for IPOD support 4.) If that dont work, employ the services of 200 Senior Advocate 5.) If EFCC never collect Bribe, they will clamp you in detention until you receive sense and return our YAM 6.) if that still the not work, start PRETENDING you have CANCER and need to "run-away" to a foreign country for Check-Up 7.) Hide there and NEVER comeback until another corrupt President assumes office, since extradiction will take decades, using corrupt Lawyers... *What number is Olisah Metuh now...? *What number is FFK on, as of today *What number is Dasuki on? *What number is Alex Badeh and the rest of the military rogues on? *As for "Chairman", im own matter pass all the above!
