Great job.
So how much was spent on the foundation and dpc.
Also the block work and casting of lintel before the decking.

You dont need to be troubled about Agboola. He can never win the primary election. I can assure you that the fourthcoming governorship election is between Olusola Oke of APC and any PDP candidate from ondo south (Agboola excluded)
You will be surprised that Akeredolu will win the primaries.
The other camp in APC is not united, Olusola Oke , Dr Abraham , Ajayi Borroface , Adelami and the others

I doubt if the Assembly will be able to get the required number to impeach the Deputy Governor.
The SSG has resigned also and decamped to PDP and I’m very sure more cabinet members will do same.

Pls what’s the size of the building /size of the German floor.
An Engr gave me a bill of about N2.7m for just foundation of a 4bedroom penthouse
PropertiesRe: Jarus CountryHome - A Journal by loffers(m): 1:28pm On Jun 27, 2020
Jarus:
Half plot. In fact, I have a 3-bedroom bungalow in the building already (where I stood taking the picture below).

On total cost:

Foundation + German floor: 4-board raft foundation, filling, materials (cement, iron, sand, wood, binding wire, nails etc), labour (bricklayer, iron bender, carpenter etc) = 1.7m

Lintel + post-window Casting: Material (Block, cement, sand, iron, wood, granite, binding wire, bamboo, nails etc), labour (bricklayer, iron bender, carpenter, material transporter, etc) = N1.2m

Decking/Casting: Material (wood, bamboo, iron, cement, sharp sands, binding wire, nails, nylon etc), labour (iron bender, carpenter, bricklayer, material transporter etc) = N1.8m

Upper lintel + post-window casting: Material (Block, cement, sands, iron for pillars, iron for casting, wood, binding wires, etc), labour (iron bender, carpenter, bricklayer, material transporter etc) = N1.4m

Electrical & plumbing Piping: Material (electrical pipes + other materials, plumbing pipes + other materials), labour (electrician, plumber, transporter) = N350k

Roofing: Paraphet + Gerard roof sheets + labour (carpenter, bricklayer, transporter, roofer) = N2.2m

Aluminium: Used for windows and toilet doors - material + labour = N0.5m

Plastering: Cement, sand + bricklayer workmanship = N0.8m

Window cement design: Material (cement) + labour = N100k

POP: Material + labour = N500k

Railing + glass: Material (stainless steel, glass) + labour = N450k

Doors: Material (Security doors + frames, cement), labour (carpenter, bricklayer, transporter) = N850k

Screeding: Material + labour = N300k

Gate: Gate purchase + labour = N200k

Tiling: Materials (tiles, cement etc) + labour (tiler, transporter etc) = N750k

Electrical lighting + finishing: Wiring materials, chandeliers, fittings, labour etc = N750k

Plumbing finishing: Sanitary wares, kitchen wares, labour = N450k

Painting & wallpapering: Material (paints, 3D wallpaper, regular wallpaper, one of the rooms fully wallpapers, living room also wallpapered)+ labour (painter & wallpaper designer) = N700k

Furniture: Wardrobes for all rooms+ kitchen furniture including marble = N600k

Fencing: Material + labour = N250k

Compound flooring: Filled with several trucks of shard sand + then interlocks, material + labour = N500k

Omo onile: N100k each at foundation, decking & roofing = N300k

Soakaway (septic) = Material (cement, iron, woods etc) + labour (digger, carpenter, iron bender, bricklayer) = N500k

TOTAL = N17.15m minus cost of land. A full plot current goes for between N6m - N8m in the area.

Note that most of the activities (other than foundation to lower lintel) were done during the lockdown and the prices were higher than normal. For example, cement was bought at N2950 per bag. Most of the materials were also bought around Ajah axis where this is located as we couldn't go orile for tiles, or other Lagos building markets, so the prices were a little higher than what we can get them for if there was no lockdown and we could go to specialized markets to get good bargain. We also got a truck of sharp sand for N57k. Things are a little expensive on this side.

Also, note that I have a bungalow on same land before. See here (December 2015): https://www.nairaland.com/2132347/construction-journal-2/2. I did this duplex in front of it.


Hello bro,

you mean you spent just N17m to achieve this?

He didn’t handle the issue of the proclamation of the state assembly very well and that was where he got it wrong.
Elders of the party on two diff occasions tried to settle the matter but he was not ready for any reconciliation , now he’s running to these same elders .

Immediately the attempt to remove Oshiomhole from office failed, I knew that was all for Obaseki .

I see a repeat of what happened in the case of Ambode playing out here also.
But we never can tell, this is politics and anything can still happen.
If the ongoing reconciliation works out fine and timely and the other members of the state Assembly are inaugurated, the chances are there that the Elders of the party might decide to forgive and forget so that peace may reign in the state.

There are two parallel APC state Executives in Edo state and the National body recognize the faction loyal to Oshio.
To avoid problem, I guess that's why they are suggesting Direct primaries so every Apc member in the state should determine who carries the flag.
So if you think you are very popular among the party members ,then you should not be afraid of direct primaries.

By my calaculation , I think Obaseki should win the primaries because there are so many contenders in the Oshio camp.
But, if the Oshio camp decides to feed just one candidate against Obaseki, then Obaseki is gone.
Same thing will play out in Ondo state.
