Thanks for your advice. I do appreciate it and promised to oblige.

The wardrobe and the kitchen cabinet in the Reno Project are locally made and they have a quoted price of N80k for the wardrobes and N70k for the kitchen cabinet. However, you can hit us with a price range and the design of what you're looking for and that may be more helpful.

Aight. Should call you on the wardrobe by April (2nd week).
For 80k, what are the dimensions... same one in d LSDPC Reno

Brabus,
Kindly give me the cost of the wardrobe and kitchen cabinet used in the LSDPC renovation. Where can I also purchase them.
I would also like you to sort your issue with Ahonohai and let all men have peace in whatever form they manage to get it.
Ahonohai, you have tried your best I must say. I learnt so much from your patience and the frustration you went through.

Secondly, I know about an IFC $20,000,000 facility appropriated for only Nigerian SMEs at a ridiculously low interests rate, but this would require an incubation or hand-holding support of a professional service firm that can help you provide the required criteria for fund access eligibility.


Please can you post more information on this IFC thing.
Politics / Re: A Developed And Educated North Is The Last Thing Yorubas And Igbos Want by Need2Drive(m): 7:04pm On Oct 17, 2011
Depilot, you seem to know so little about Nigeria and the North South divide.

The South (Igbo & Yoruba) have nothing against the North getting educated. The only reason the North is the least educated part of Nigeria is because there are two (2) Norths - That of the Elites and the Masses.

A few years ago, former Central Bank Governor ‘Comical' Chukwuma Soludo reeled out the results of studies which clearly indicated that the north east geopolitical region of Nigeria was the poorest and least developed. Is there any coincidence with the fact that the same region has now become the haven of extremist groups posing serious security threats to the entire country?

In reality, the targets of the uprising are the so-called leaders in the North – the political, military and business elite as well the traditional institutions that have held the region back and truncated any attempt to educate the people and free them from the yolk of illiteracy and poverty.

The north has produced more leaders and has been in power longer than other regions. The governments of Shehu Shagari (1979-1983), Ibrahim Babangida (1985-1993), Sani Abacha (1993-1998) and Umaru Yar’adua (2007-2010) are best forgotten.

As far back as 1955, the Western Region introduced free education as a policy. Today, the products of that forward thinking strategy and their offspring dominate education, the civil service, business, financial services, medicine, law and a host of other professions in Nigeria and beyond. Even now, which of the north’s 19 states has a free education policy? So the region has millions of uneducated and unskilled young men and women with little opportunities today and worse prospects still, for tomorrow.

To illustrate the level of decay and neglect, a few examples are vital: today, a single state in the South has more school enrolments than an entire geo-political zone in the north. A primary school in Rafin-Pa in the outskirts of Zaria has 300 pupils who share two classes. A chalk line on the floor serves as demarcation for the different classes. It has two teachers, including the headmaster; there are more private universities in a state in the South than all federal, state and private universities in a northern zone. There is only one state owned university of science and technology in the entire north. A single university in the south graduates more students than several in the north.

Healthcare is not any better. Most states in the south have more doctors than any zone in the north. Recently, a volunteer group organized a medical caravan to assist a small village with basic medical services, only to be confronted with many patients requiring surgery and other more serious medical attention from surrounding settlements. Government healthcare has never reached majority of people, so they die from preventable, treatable diseases that should have been long eradicated. Cholera, dysentery, meningitis, polio and other preventable diseases are prevalent in the region which has stalled the elimination of polio from Africa. The region’s elite would rather keep their stolen wealth in Switzerland, Dubai, Hong Kong and South Africa.

Agriculture, the region’s great area of comparative advantage and mainstay of its economy remains subsistence and dependent on the vagaries of weather. This is in spite of the many dams and huge tracts of fertile land the region possesses. The Sahara desert is inching downwards every year. Entire settlements have been engulfed. Water sources are drying up rapidly; deforestation is exposing millions of people to the elements and making the region vulnerable to drought, flooding and other environmental catastrophes. Rapid population expansion further puts pressure on existing resources, while armies of unemployed youth troop to towns and cities in search of non-existing opportunities. Northern elite would rather compete about who lives in a more expensive part of London, the French Riviera or Dubai.

Of course, many Northerners have worked and succeeded in many fields, but the region’s political elite only use public offices to divert funds for personal use. Corruption is central to the region’s poverty and maladministration. The stolen funds are used to buy homes in Europe, America and the Middle-East. It is warped thought process: grab as much money as possible; open foreign bank accounts; buy estates in Europe and America, with a stopover in Dubai. And never forget to visit Mecca every year to feign religiosity.

Depilot, I see you need to understand North South divide in Nigeria, there is another north. There is a north that has nothing to do with the usurpation of political and economic opportunities to the exclusion of other Nigerians. There is a north that is poor, hungry, illiterate and devoid of hope. There is a north that is as much a victim as the south of the corruption and arrogance of these narrow clique of northerners that is often presented as representing the entire region.

For this north, the various administrations headed by northerners have not resulted in better lives, education or improved opportunities. This north does not send its children to school in the US, UK and other locations while local schools are systematically ruined. This north does not fly to Europe or America every fortnight for medical checkups or shopping sprees in Dubai. This north does not own foreign bank accounts in London, New York, Dubai, South Africa, Jordan, Beijing and Hong Kong; they own no bank accounts at all. This north that does not allocate all the best positions in the country to its children, qualified or not.

initiate:

about sweet sensation i observe that the one in adeola odeku and awolowo road gave courteous staff, the one in Isaac john are just ok, but the ones in ilupeju and in opebi are total washout, rude saucy nasty girls



Mr Biggs has been spending so much on Logo and Branding, but I think they should have spent all that money on their staff attitude. From the lousy security men at the doors who beg like its going out of fashion to the crappy sales girls at the counter to the envious cleaners who just beef you cos u came there to buy some poisonous snacks.

I was at the refurbished one at Agindingbi this morning to use the rest room and I find a big black cockroach on the tissue paper. I call their attention to it, and the cocky bas***d told me that dont I have cockroaches in my area.
