 Properties › Re: Building A Student Hostel : Profitability And Challenges by naijacutee(f): 8:40am On Jun 17, 2011 |
I think this topic should be stickied. In this case, I would say location is king. You are on to a winner if the said student hostels are located in the "right" area, close to a high-traffic university, public amenties and not lost in the bush somewhere, and contain all the facilities students need/want. I'm assuming here that the rent turnover time is shorter (as opposed to bi-annual cycle landlords charge for flats). In this case, I think the landlord can use the smaller living area per occupant to his/her advantage i.e I think living space for a 3 bed flat can easily be comfortable living space for 3 x students = 3 lots of rent. Maybe we need real life figures to determine. P.S I think this should be stickied |

Classic example of the business environment in Nigeria driven by competition rather than demand. There might not be much profit in a particular business, but for the fact that Mr A did it, everyone will follow suit and realise when it's too late that it wasn't actually a money spinner. No innovation, No differentiation just pure replication pure and simple. Re: Topic. I've used astontext.com and they have delivered my messages. I also paid them via Paypal. |
| Nairaland General › Re: Why Do Mad People Laugh? by naijacutee(f): 8:14am On Jun 10, 2011 |
I read a story about a medical doctor who developed a mental illness, and ended up on the streets of Lagos. This brought so many questions to mind, which I’ll share after sharing the story. The case of a medical doctor Seven years after rigorous medical training, Sandra was set to take the world as a brilliant student, a glorious medical practice laid ahead of her, her family was overjoyed during her graduation, not just because of the prospects associated with her field of studies, her colleagues at the University of Lagos described her as a promising doctor; because of her academic exploit. She was exceptional and stood out among the pack, so there was no doubt she had a great professional life ahead of her, one of them recalls. Things started looking up for Sandra as soon as she finished the mandatory one-year National Service, while her colleagues were praying and hoping for employment by the General Hospital, Broad Street Lagos as a general practitioner. At work, Sandral continued with her strong, impressive showing, she was darling to patients and colleagues, winning accolades and applause. For a year, she distinguished herself until sometimes in 1994, when she collapsed on duty at the casualty unit that fateful afternoon, those around rallied to her help and she was immediately placed on medical treatment. But diagnosis revealed she was a victim of stress. Subsequent test showed she also had mental disorder. Before much could be done, a young, promising doctor had already hit the streets totally insane. For years, she walked half unclothed on the streets of Lagos before relations managed to take her to Psychiatric Hospital in Lagos, where she received treatment for seven years. Despite her coveted medical qualification, she is today unproductive and a strain on the society. Her certificate lies somehow in a cabinet as useless as one that was never obtained, her medical skill and training are untapped at the privately owned center for mentally ill and destitute persons, in Ajegunle, an uptown district in Lagos where the team of mental heath foundation met Sandral’s pitiable sight but she is lucky to be alive. Looking dishevled with her hair showing years of insanity, she says; I found home here, I found love and that is why I am able to come back to my senses. This is the only place where I feel like a human being, she adds in the midst of over 140 fellow inmates. Sandra is just one out of many Nigerians increasingly succumbing to mental disorder for so many reasons. There is no denying the facts that millions of Nigerians are under mental siege. Seeing unclothed, mad people on the streets is now a common sight. In Lagos and the parts of the country, most of them take refuge under bridge and public places, living in a world of their own, not a few of them constitute serious menace of the public, especially when they become wild. It is all so easy to dismiss them as;’ undesirable elements; who probably inflicted the condition on themselves through wicked or unhealthy habits, but psychiatrists say many Nigerians are on their way to joining them on the streets if serious efforts are not taken. - Culled from The National Life : http://www.thenationallifeonline.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2156:fighting-the-stigma&catid=121:healthi&Itemid=833 After reading this story, I am touched for several reasons. [list] [li] I am touched because Sandra is a young lady, just like me. In what way is she different from you and I? Could she have been “targeted” by some strange twist of fate? Was it something she did? Was it “something” “someone” did, “somewhere”? Yes, I’m talking jazz.[/li] [li] I am also touched because not only is she your average ambitious young lady, but she went above and beyond the demands of basic university education and became a doctor. By way of education, Sandra has put more effort in and has achieved more than I and many others have. If as a doctor – a general practitioner for that matter, she couldn’t recognise the “signs”, then who are we to talk?[/li] [li]Sandra’s demise seem to have began (according to the article) while she was under pressure from work. A situation which is not unique to anyone from any country, religion, race or intellect. Everyone gets stressed sometimes. [/li][/list] All in all, Sandra could have been anybody at all. Some of us might develop mental illnesses in the course of our lifetime, some of us might not. Let us at least take that shoe into consideration before we start laughing. It could be you next - It's not juju, not jazz, it's nothing anyone did. It's simply an illness that knows no restrictions. |

Do you mind saying how old you are? I'm not sure what the procedure in Nigeria is, but if you are under 35, it's not advised to have a mammogram as first line investigation, unless you have already had an ultrasound scan and you have been referred to for a mammogram. Please see the following information concerning mammogramm screening in Lagos : http://www.lagosstate.gov.ng/index.php?page=projectdetail&ptype=Programme&poid=113&mnu=module&mnusub=ministry&mpid=32&pocat=ministry&pocatsub=32 The website also cites a screening centre in Agege : Here's the phone number - 08023039808 All the best! |

| Business › Re: Inventions That Can Make You Rich (both In Nigeria And Abroad) by naijacutee(mod): 6:47pm On Apr 27, 2011 |
brainette:Thank you, brainette! One more idea : A foot-powered mortar for pounding yam and cassava. The thigh muscles are the strongest muscles in the body for heavy work, yet they are the least used. A foot pounder can harness the great strength of these muscles and put them into pounding yam and cassava quicker, more efficiently and safely. I have a rough picture of what this could look like in my head, but I can't draw guys - sorry. Basically, it could have a long lever with a wide pestle-like projection on one end. On the other end would be a sort of spring-loaded foot pedal attached or some other mechanism which is able to multiplying the force applied at the foot end. This would save a lot of poor arms, shoulder joints, backs and precious time in the sun wasted in trying to get the perfectly pounded cassava/yam. Also, it is also viable for as long as we have irregular electricity in Nigeria. Even after we get regular electricity (In Jesus name!) this could go on to sell in other African countries in which staple foods are pounded in the same way. |
