I had 2 meters installed in the same address sometimes in 2015. they're both in my name(flat A and B)…Abeokuta
I have another build with 5 apartments somewhere else around abk. Sometimes last year, my caretaker contacted me about an ongoing mass metering program. It was free of charge for houses/apartments that are already registered under ibedc. I only registered 1 of those apartments. so, they were sharing just 1 bill(15K), and I was entitled to just 1 meter. The ibedc guys declined to install the meter, they suggested that we register the remaining 4 apartments, so that each apartment would receive its own meter. I was convinced by the caretaker and the tenants not to proceed (they said na setup), because the meter would probably not be installed(not enough to go round), and each of the apartment will now be paying the estimated monthly bill of 15k(now 23k). The community enjoys about 20 hours of electricity.
Note: the meters are not the ones hung outside.

Hmmm. Nigeria labor law is a mess.

Good. It’ll serve as deterrent to officers that may be thinking of towing that path.
He is brilliant no doubt, was diligent, received all the necessary supports and freedom to succeed. A very rare privilege but he betrayed those trust.
He should be severely punished and disgraced.

BusinessRe: What Business To Start With N15M? by MrOkenwa(m):
Insecurity, high inflation rate, and the volatility of our currency are things that you may need to consider before venturing into any business now.
You’ll also need to consider your level of participation in the day to day running of your business, since you’re still a salaried employee.
Many businesses need close monitoring and that is TIME.
I’ve tried transportation, I’ve supplied flour and sugar to bakeries in the past. Profitable but you need to create time to monitor the business.
If you would not have time, just go into rentals. Tent, chairs, anything that you know that people need to rent.
if you have access to more funds, You may consider building some low cost properties and rent them out. Not necessarily for students. you can use some of them for short-let if you live in a major city.
Nairaland GeneralRe: How Much Do You Spend On Feeding Daily by MrOkenwa(m): 2:43pm On Mar 11, 2022
I don’t spend a dime!
Free feeding and accommodation is included in my contract at my place of work. I only spend money on those on my dependents and when I’m on vacation.
As per the contract they had with the catering company handling that, my feeding comes at 120$ per day(buffet).

This probably occurred during the cutting of the POP to fit in the Pop light (which has a tendency of causing some cracks) . Sir, Kindly go to the tenant's apartment to see for yourself or ask if the pop was cut to fit in the light. (if possible snap & send here).


Possible Solution to a cracked Pop!: if it's minor crack, refill & screed with little amount of Pop cement!
If it's a large crack, mix pop cement with fillas, to fill strengthen the large space, so as to avoid further cracks.
Thank you.

Bad pop cement
Maybe the board the cast is not thick enough or they didn't use enough filas....or there is wall breakage within the house??

Installing spot light shouldnt crack a pop...

Anyway they do what we called gnashing... It will solve it
Okay. Thank you chief.
No crack anywhere in the building.
I paid for the material and workmanship per sqm.
I remember the electrician told me that the pop is not really thick.
Pls what’s gnashing?

Perfecttouchade:
if it's just a crack, there is a way they fill it up (not to serious tho) but if it's a wide one , they will cut it out and replace with another molded one..a picture of the crack is important Sir.. kindly upload the picture of the crack
Thank you for your response sir.
The video sent to me is not clear. I could barely see it. It’s a thin line crack with no gap in between. It runs along the entire length of the room.
Thank you

It happened when the pop light was being fixed last year. I haven’t seen it myself but the tenant said that it’s now more obvious.

If your main aim is to go and earn more than your current earning, you may just need to sit back as there’s no assurance that you’ll earn up to that figure.

Book an appointment to see him.
Let him know your thought about him.
whether he agree or disagree, get his family/friend involve if you can.
Last resort is to involve the school hospital doctor. They know what to do.
