In other words, nothing was discussed.


This government is a rabid dog and will say what should be a secret. For them to keep it a secret means nothing was discussed

More pictures of the gate

By this evening when everything concerning the welding was done with, I had to raise it from the ground.


Moving forward, this gate is extremely delicate as the spices are breakable. It will stand like this until it's delivered

It has been long since I posted about this gate but work has been constantly going on.

This is the condition as at this morning

Let private investors take over immediately

The gods must be crazy.

So much wealth in the hand of just a few number of individuals

If this is true this is what I think happened.

The Federal Government has bought the production line from the cement companies for an agreed number of bags of cement for the Mass Housing Scheme. What this means is that the cement companies have agreed with the Federal Government to produce a bag of cement at N2,600 and this may be on the premise that the government will pay upfront for production to go ahead. No kam bia kwa business.

However, the cement companies may not be responsible for the lifting, transportation, warehousing, and further personnel cost of the cement. Further, the cement companies may not pay VAT and port charges for raw materials and spare parts for the number of bags as these are for the government and the government doesn't pay tax to itself. The UK government used this approach to buy all UK supplies of Covid-19 vaccines. It is a beautiful system if well implemented.

However, knowing the Federal Government as we know them, at the end of the day, after factoring in the above "hidden" cost and corruption, I can bet my last kobo that the Federal Government will get a bag of cement from the companies far more than the general public are currently doing.

If this story is true, it is just another media gimmick by this fantastically incompetent administration.

how about government agents buying the allotted slots and using it for their builds or selling to family and friends at something a bit below market value

will the 5 x 3 H Channels earlier quoted be sufficient and how many lengths?

not anymore. We're talking about 8 by 4 for four legs or 6 by 3 for six legs

DUNKA:
a 3 storey of 2 units per floor of 2 bedroom apartments

you need a tank stand with at least six tanks. One tank for each flat.

6 tanks of 500 gallons will do a good job

Succinctly said.

people should stop being emotional about issues. As a parent, you do some odd jobs to put food on your family table and ensure your kids don't do same. But e reach Davido, you want his own to tow same part out of pain and jealousy


But as life no be like that, Davido don begin shame Dem already

After monetizing those girls to twerk on your music videos, you don't want your own daughter to twerk?

She must twerk. Na must!

He paid those girls to ensure his own doesn't.

It's simple life.

Hello house!

What is the current price of iron rod/ton.

I'm Planning to buy all I need for my project at once if the price is favourably now or buy in phases if the price will still come down

here's what I will tell you, buy everything you need if you have the money now. Price may slightly drop but it will be eaten up by rise in other materials

Here's my advice,find another addiction to cure yourself of this addiction. That's how life works. And this is why people are advised not to start any act that they can't control.

About your unemployment, it's not your masturbation. Find out why you're unemployed. Look at your CV and circle of friends and see what needs to change. Current CEO of Apple Inc is gay. Your masturbation doesn't hamper your productivity

I was in Akure today looking to see if I can see this project but didn't. I guess I didn't go to the neighborhood

DUNKA:
thanks boss would 20,000 liters be OK?

do something for me. Tell me the need and number of occupants and I will tell you what will be ok for you

odiomachi:
its all but because Lagos is over hyped, with the way the eco system is going right now 70 percent of Lagos will be submerged into the Atlantic ocean in less than 50 years coming. An intelligence report made this know 2013 but tinubu and fashola made sure they scrub it of the net because of eko Atlantic failed project.

New York isn't yet submerged,na Lagos

DUNKA:
Michilins goodday kindly give a material and cost estimate of a 40 foot tank stand that would hold two (2) 5,000 liter tanks. Thanks

good day boss.

Budget 800-900,000 for the job. You should use 5 by 3 H channel. But forty feet should be for a three storey building and as such, two tanks alone might not be enough especially if it's going to serve a commercial building

You're wannabe criminals and by spending the money, you're criminals. Whatever comes to you, take it with your chest. If you can't do time, don't do crime.


You got 3ml and immediately bought phone

You should be happy that there are no two front pillars to complement the roof. That's an improvement.

I suspect that when you give our Nigerian architects a contract to design a building, most of them draw the front pillars and roof first, then try to figure out the rest.

your use of sarcasm strong really

The windows that has these are at the back.

oh that

spyder880:
We've started making the windows that will be used in this house, here is a sample window for one of the back bedrooms..........

these frames looks like they're short knowing that the windows are almost 7ft tall

Most of the cars fit make into Nigeria as toks

Unfortunately, that is what Governance in Nigeria has become.
Very, very Sad.
Until we can change that situation, Residents have a Choice, to keep driving back and forth, on that muddy Road, while damaging their Car in the rainy season and pouring red dust on their property in the dry season.


Lastpage!

let's take the blame to where it's supposed to be and not blame who's not to blame. It's the government irresponsibility that made the road like that. Those citizens with big houses paid insane amount of money in taxes to get government approval for the building and that's after they secured the said land from omonile and whatnot.

You will build the house finish and pay NEPA to enable you connect to the grid and then pay for meter which they will ensure you don't get so they can cut the light and seize the wires you bought

Someone posted this topic and picture about Owerri: https://www.nairaland.com/6543917/despite-security-shortcoming-owerri-still

My point is; have a look at the attached picture and the quality of houses in the street and look at the quality of the road. My question is, can't the landlords corporate and tar the road? They look well off enough going by the quality of the houses. Why wait for an ineffective government? I find this scenario all over Nigeria which is limiting property value. Tar the road yourselves!!!

so eh, after paying all the taxes and levies which isn't limited to paying and providing your own security,power and water. You will then go ahead and tar roads.

If you do all these, what then becomes the duty of the elected officials. Bearing in mind that Imo state is an oil producing states with 30% derivatives. Is it only to buy the biggest cars with security escort be the work of the governors and other elected officials

Just as Michlins said, don't start a war you can't finish in 4 to 5 years. Imagine one of them take you to court and hold down your investment without any value added to your money, it would be nice to negotiate with them. One thing I know, those things happen in other parts of the world as well when new owners buy investment property in lucrative locations. They end up paying the tenants in some cases enough money to buy there own houses. I have seen this happen many times in the west. From this part of the world, if a property is sold the current lease on record dies with it. Though there is other legal terms attached to most lease according to geographical location. Another experience with a friend where the tenants have court battle with him 3 years before the pandemic, my bother till date this guy is living rent free when the owner continues paying mortgage. You don't want to find yourself in a situation like that. Another situation like this when the property investors choose not to follow the rules, they pay criminals to burn down the house just to get the poor tenants out. The evil act caught up with them and pay big according to court verdict.

I told him to go beg his tenants. This same scenario is playing out close to me. This ex landlord knowing fully well that he's selling his property compelled his tenants to pay him. So the new landlord came and the tenants insisted they're refunded but the new landlord said he didn't have business with them but they have paper covering for their rent for the said period. He later begged the tenants and even gave them about six months extra to move out.

That's how tough it is here elsewhere they will tie up your project up in court. They don't have anything to loose. You probably have bank funds tied up in the said project and bank doesn't care

spyder880:
I know, the site is waterlogged at the back.

how reinforced is your foundation here. What type of rods did you use and the cement to sand ratio

spyder880:
Exactly, this water source is easy and cheap since the water level is near the surface, I don't have to power generators or maintain the borehole

if that's the case then sinking a standing tank on this site will require additional reinforcement
