toolovely:
So, you would rather he builds new schools to rebuilding the existing ones? We have old existing schools in our various states begging for attention but your likes will prefer a governor to start a new school project than attending to the existing ones....
Una well-done

that's classical Nigeria system. Same masses will complain about lack of maintenance for existing infrastructure.

Every new government will start new project with the existing ones in comatose

Currently making these railings.

💥When Akwa Ibom invested $96m in the Godswill Akpabio Stadium back in 2014, many criticized him; why waste money on a stadium when people are hungry?

Yet today, it stands as the only FIFA-recognized stadium where our National Team can host its home matches.

What if he did not build it?
What if he saved the money in fidelity like Obi?

Real leaders don’t just govern for today; they build for tomorrow. The struggles we face now are the result of past leaders who failed to build infrastructures that should be serving us today.

I read posts from people like you and realize why Nigeria is the way it is.

Name one country that built its economy around sports and vanity projects?

Singapore got independence just around same time as Nigeria, their own government prioritized education, economic improvement through power generation and boosting productivity. Today they may not have a world class stadium but they are a first world economy.

Aside from Uyo municipal, which other place in Akwa Ibom is on par with MDG goals for development.

Why should a stadium (used couple of times a year) be prioritized over the education of millions of children and lifting them out of poverty. In case you don't know, education is the quickest path out of poverty but folks like you will rather praise infrastructures that serve next to zero economic values.

In your opinion,is the stadium profitable right now or it's still maintained by the government?

Akeredolus wife was told so. But she did not start rambling like a mad woman. I mean I'm Nigeria not in London.

akedorulu wife isn't a politician. Have you seen Soludo campaign? Just personal attacks and stuff

Ironfaceman:
Very reckless and Foolish of ekunife to say things like that.

I know you're pissed off by his personality and you can't manipulate him. So you stoop too low to saying things to malign hi personality.

so Soludo maligning her for marrying into another senatorial zone out her place of birth is ok but she telling Soludo to take care of his personal hygiene is bad.

Make una dey calm down

omanzo02:
What do think about the practice of using galvanised pipe for water tank stand, what maximum load can a 6 inches pipe withstand, durability and the possibilities of using base plate and foundation bolts with pipes compared to H-beams?

Thanks

I haven't worked with galvanized steel pipes before and I don't know what to expect with such.

I understand that some areas have access to decommissioned pipelines which are far more durable compared to regular ones. So if you can get those, you can pair them with base plates for maximum results.

But personally, I will always choose H beam channels always

Kosoco:
You are a very wicked person.... After he squzzed his last 35k for you, you still kept his phone... now you are asking us about your action......
You could hv just note his contact and adress since you knew someone he tends to use the material for did not pay him... The only thing you can't run aware from is conscience look at how you're feeling now cos you hurt your fellow man... locate that man and give him his phone for your peace of mind.... On a final note always have compassion for your fellow man.

collect your salary dey go, you don't know the first thing about business. Try go collect loan from bank to do business and let me know if they will let go of your collateral without paying the last kobo

Righteousness2:
Another day, another lie, another fooling of those who allow themselves to be fooled.

Will Al Jazeera apologize for spreading the fake story about the Gazan boy who was allegedly shot in the head by the IDF?

Will anyone apologize for believing the rogue ex-GHF worker who lied to the entire world, claiming he had witnessed it?

That boy is alive and well and had to be smuggled out of Gaza so Hamas won’t hurt him to prove the fake story right.

how does your God approve of this genocide happening now in our generation.

If we talk about the ones that happened in the Bible, you will tell us that Bible translation and spiritual understanding are needed to understand the Bible.

This one is happening and you're defending it strongly with Bible. If tomorrow history books discuss this, don't tell people we don't have faith

It's not truly unlimited in the sense of say Starlink or MTN fibrex. I can confirm to you that there's a FUP and once you hit it, your speed gets seriously throttled, you probably have not so your speed remains as advertised

what is the FUP?

Do you have the router personally?

Austinbiggy:
Last year I meant a girl who she claimed to be a nice girl, I was having a good intention of settling down with her not when she told me she has two son elsewhere. I was like two son but she told me the father of the two children are not dating but the children are with there father people.
We start in a good tone but not when she took in for me, she gave me condition that am going to see her parents and also be responsible for her two children and I said over my dead body. I told her I can go and see your parents but I will not be responsible for your two children and she said we need to remove the pregnancy and I said no problem. She claimed to remove the pregnancy but all the drugs didn't work but when I took the responsibility of keeping the child she was so excited.
Since the day she gave birth everything about her change towards me, when she was staying with her formal Guy, she took the two children and ran away from the man but when she discovered she can no longer handle the bill of the children she returns it to the man and the man took the children and returned them to her sister. The formal Guy sister has been the one taking care of the two children. Now, the two children came to visit there father for holiday now my wife left my house and go and see the children and hide my own child saying she don't want the children to know she has given birth. I have been having issues with her concerning the children, now the father of the children said she don't have business with her.
Guess what happened today, my wife knows very well that am too attached with my four months baby, she took my baby and park her things and ran away from my house and my baby is just four months. I don't know her where about. People are saying I should calm down but I can't sleep. I meant her formal Guy and the guy told me she's a big fool, that she supposed to be happy that she see a man who accepts her even after giving birth for two. I don't really know what to do.

relax, Tinubu economy will reset her brain and she will bring your son back.


But I don't know what will fix your own brain. You saw a problem and jumped into it with two legs

Airtel is capped, NOT truly Unlimited

I have used this thing for over a year and I have friends who also use it. It's completely unlimited. Just like this MTN, you buy the speed

Tochex101:
Is the airtel truly unlimited boss and what's the monthly cost....

yes it's truly unlimited if you have a very good network around you

stonemasonn:
Show us the stats

is this stat enough for you?

Thing is that you people are hooked on Trump syrup like those APC minions are hooked on Tinubu syrup. Everything he says is true irrespective of data saying otherwise.

If you have any data showing that Blue states have higher homicide rate, kindly show me

The big reinforcement rods of Y20 in use in some beams........................

What's going on here. This one is an absolute beast of reinforcement

Compared to Republican run states, the Democrats are far more safer even with higher population compared to the Republican States yet you don't see Trump wanting to send in the national guards.

InvertedHammer:

Beneficiaries don't see anything in a broken system. Trump just cleaned up D.C. On this labour day weekend alone, at least 52 shot with 7 fatalities in Democratically run Chicago. Trump is threatening to send in National Guard to clean up the decades ol' mess but the incompetent Mayor is asking for handout instead. The good news is that blacks have begun to realize that Democrats do not have their interests at heart. The case of illegal migrants exposed all the lies especially in Sanctuary cities.

sonnie10:
Thanks for information. Like how much will one of this pole cost?

120-150k depending on the design.

There are plain ones that goes for around 50-60k

sonnie10:
How much is one of this, including the pole and installation ?

a welder will do the pole while you buy the lights

omanzo02:
Good day Michlins,
I am about making a tank stand, what is the thickness of the bolt base plate or the minimum safe thickness the base plate should be and minimum size and length of the bolts?

Thanks.

base plates should be 12 by 12 by 12mm and foundation bolts should be 25mm by 4ft.

The above is what is very good.

How abt u focus on d passion for training future leaders than d monetary reward

passion dey pay rent?

boxypane:
That's not what I'm saying. By oversight, you should understand that they are covering up for whoever was suppose to ensure personnel man that booth, nobody is happy at this. If only the person responsible will be queried... But a good team unfortunately will take full responsibility rather than point fingers. It was just unfortunate it had to happen at this stage.

whoever that made this type of costly mistake at international level was have been showing incompetence on smaller tasks and because no one is pointing fingers, everyone was ok with it until it brought international embarrassment like this.


What investor will take us serious if a mudane task like this is something we can't execute perfectly

Ayohbk:
Hello everyone, I'm here again for advice. Thanks for your continous support.

I have a renovation project for an old building bought last year. To be converted to a modern style storey building consisting of 4 2-bedroom flats and 2 one room self contain.

After months of several bureaucratic hurdles, the project started approximately in April this year. The engineer I used for this project was brought by my mum who knew him because he had done similar project in our area. When I was in Nigeria in February, I met him and discussed with him and he was of the opinion that the project is something that can be completed in 3 months. I told him that's ok but I'm not in a Rush and I will continue the work until a stage I can afford.

Agreed payment mode for the engineer was 20k per day. Before leaving Nigeria, I asked him for a list of what will be done at each stage and time period. He gave me the list we discussed and agreed on things that Will be done in first month.

After returning to my base, I realized the project was moving really slow, even my mum who brought the engineer complained of the engineer of having few workers. April and May went by without much work done, only significant thing completed was the roofing, of which it was my mum who brought the carpenter for the work.

So before June , I asked the engineer to provide a list of what Will be done in June and the finances required. He sent it and I gave an ok to it. Until now, we are still on the stage of arranging blocks, demarcation of flats and construction of staircase. We are almost at the end of August we are still on that.

Last week, I was angry and I asked my mom to forward my voice note to the engineer where I stated that I was not satisfied with the speed of work of the engineer. The reply by the engineer was that "oh, renovation work is not rushed" "We should start buying materials for other stages like windows, doors, electrification and plumbing" even though he's not done with the demarcation of flats, talk less of plastering. There was no sense of responsibility or accountability from his end at all.

It's not like the there's no money to Start buying materials for the next stage. But at least Work should get to some level First before we start with that. I'm really frustrated with the project right now, because I can't plan for anything else because of it. I don't have direct contact with the engineer. My mum does.

I will like to ask your opinion on this. Is this normal pace? And also I'm at the Stage of wanting to change the engineer, do you think it's something I can do easily. Please note that this engineer was the one who handled most bureaucracy required for the project. I'm just really frustrated and feel tied down by the project. I wish to reach a stage of the project that I can finance and plan for something else with my life.

Please Note: We have only paid the engineer for 2 and half months of work. Even though we are Still on the stage we planned for first month.

This engineer is milking you for all the milk you can make. I remember you talking about your dad not in support of you making the purchase.

Anyways, I will suggest you pick an engineer from this thread and give him the job. You can easily drag him publicly here and get accountability.

As it is now, you have zero leverage over the guy and if you don't cut him off,he will continue being a heavy pest
