Ebeano Supermarket Arson By 9-Year-Old Girl

I watched this and thought to myself this could have been prevented/averted or limited by simple basic technology we often take for granted.

#1. That CCTV should have been monitored. In a set-up like a supermarket, it is of no use setting up a CCTV without personnel to monitor it. If the CCTV was being monitored, the child could have been seen straight away and the staff could react swiftly to put out the fire. This is negligence on the part of the operators of the supermarket.

#2. An industrial smoke/fire detector would have sounded an alarm to alert staff of the danger almost immediately after the child struck the lighter. From the look of things, such a supermarket has no fire/smoke alarm. The question is: how did the supermarket pass planning approval with the authorities? Set-up like these should not get planning approval or license to operate without putting fire prevention measures in place. Who places gas cylinders, a connected gas cooker and lighters together in the same place accessible to all? This is just daft. The operators would have a hard time with their insurance company if they have one. The insurance company may fight this and refuse to pay.

#3. A fire water sprinkler would have prevented the supermarket from burning completely to the ground. A fire water sprinkler is even more ardently needed in Nigeria where the fire service is not up to scratch. And these gargets are not even that expensive to implement. It is either the I-don't-care attitude of some Nigerians, cutting corners, or lack of basic knowledge.

For those of you architects in here and engineers, have you ever included water sprinklers in your Mech drawings for a commercial outfit? Most of the answers would be 'no'. Architects in Nigeria, you must up your game beyond your traditional cut and paste to include cutting edge, life-saving, and health and safety designs both for home and commercial outfits. This is a challenge for you all.

If you are a Local Government Agency employee in charge of planning approval and you're reading this, you must do your job diligently. Stop collecting bribes and enforce the planning process to its fullest. Your corrupt ways are killing Nigerians.

Homeowner, you will do well to instal smoke/carbon monoxide detector and alarm at home. A fire extinguisher for home use will not go amiss. And place lighters out of the reach of children. This is not rocket science.

I’ve been thinking about the best way to keep the house fully secured but I realize no amount of Security protocols can keep determined robbers from gaining entrance.

Make person sha dey keep cash for house incase robbers come, they can at least go with something without harming family members

diordaves:
This is a sad and unfortunate incidence. I hope they are/have been caught.

I don't think the design of the house would have helped on this occasion as the senior from the goodness of her heart let them in to pass the night. I think Nigerians at the lower end of societal ladder are increasingly getting wicked and jealous of people they perceive in their warped mind as successful and rich. They have seemingly successful folks as target.

A member of my landlord association was kidnapped by her driver of 12 years assigned to her by the bank they're both employed. 20 million Naira ransom was demanded and paid. Do you know what? After the driver and his gang were rumbled, it was discovered the driver is building the exact same house as his madam from the proceed of kidnapping. The same design down to the type of fence. He continued working at the bank before he was caught in another kidnap operation.

So no matter the design of our homes, the people we have around us and sometimes even the family members we have around us are the weakest link in any security set up.

May her soul rest in peace.

chimexdnice1:
Good question o. And I guess the application should be at the top of the roof?.

KolaShangOne:
Yes. Buy sealant and apply it. It’s a gum made of silicon..

A dishonest Nigerian is not cured of his dishonesty just because he travelled out of Nigeria.

KolaShangOne:
I really doubt you will need 150bags of cement.

Labour fees, if you’re going by the Nairaland way of estimating 2 bricklayer for 1 room, then you will spend 100k or less

In real life, you will spend about 250k depending on other factors

KolaShangOne:
Six (6 ) units of building is understandable because of volume. You be big man.

For me to do it on a single unit at a site, I have to move my electric saw to site, get electricity / generator, mount a work table, also factor in wear and tear, time etc.

So for the question @sonnie10 asked which was a SINGLE DUPLEX, it makes more sense to cut it at the mill. It will cost 500 - 600 naira for 20pcs of wood.

somehow:
Nairaland is Nigeria online.

somehow:
He fires those we have different opinions.

He surrounded himself with those that wouldn't question him.

Again, this is me talking from experience.

N. B = Not like he was paying anyone then to moderate.

somehow:
The guy is all about money, does not care about anything else.
This is why the forum has remained the way it is today.

Talking as an insider!

KolaShangOne:
Errrmm.. I guess you're asking this question to throw open the discussion?

If you're doing lintels, does your carpentar cut across the 12feet grain of the wood on site? For a typical 4 bedroom flat, you need about 20pcs of 9" boards.

It will take them approximately 2-3mins to saw it at the mill, it will take your carpentar alot of stress and hours to cut across the 12feet length of 20pcs of wood.

It's easier cutting rods to sizes on site. The cutter doesn't even take 2 seconds.
