Depends on where you choose. I live in a self-con that costs #120k yearly. No steady light but I'm cool.
Does anyone know gwagwa-karmo?

Yes. That shithole. I don't call that place Abuja.

Travel / Re: USA Visit Visa Part 4 by olaoye15(m): 5:21pm On Feb 21, 2021
Hello Family

I need your take on this. Is there anything like diplomatic visa for non diplomatic member.

I had an argument with someone yesterday that obviously, diplomatic visa real, but for someone who is not a part of a diplomatic mission, that can't be possible. I argued that the system is now so sophisticated that they Oyinbo can't be fooled with this in the 21st century.

That even if it does, the whole deceit will be detected at the point of entry. In my heart, my argument was not convincing as I dont have real life evidence to corroborate my claims. I just have this absolute trust in the system of the of the US embassy to detect deceit.

Can anyone shed more light on this. Or does anyone has a real life experience on it. The guy said it is a Visiting diplomatic visa.

Education / Re: Why Do Nigerian Universities Charge Ridiculous Amount For Transcripts? by olaoye15(m): 8:11pm On Feb 19, 2021
I applied for mine just yesterday. I indicated they send electronically to my receiver. Transcript request has now been made easy, as you there is a platform which works directly with your institution on your behalf. Ext.ng. I paid 8,880 online ( you can only get such deal in OAU) and my payment was confirmed immediately.

I hope they attend to it fast, as I just learnt that NASU are currently on strike. You guys can google

exchange.etx.ng

it fast but can't confirm of it is reliable.

Such a reliable payment platform. I used it yesterday while requesting for my transcript only and was absolutely impressed with its mechanism.

Congratulations on your new project!

Please do not get involved because of the above alone. Get involved because you’re the project director. Even though you don’t know everything about building, this forum and others can help you achieve your building project without worries.

Don’t be forward. Try and work with your engineer. I’d rather work with an engineer on the build route (owner managed, contractor managed or owner-contractor managed)/scope of work than going on a full-fledged contract.

To your question about stages of work, here’s something you should be on the look out for (foundation to roofing only) if you want to avoid surprises. No technical jargons grin

We are working on a project management checklist at kobocity.com for self builders and homeowners who want to be directly involved in their project. Once it’s ready, I’ll update this platform.


Thank you very much for this piece. Very exhaustive but not specific for my my needs. Thank you again.

Hello my people.

I am planning to build a four bedroom bungalow in Ibadan. The project will be starting in a short time. I actually want to equip myself with the stages involved in the process from start to finish as I dont want to look like a novice around the engineer.

Can someone take me through the processes. For the foundation, I have already offloaded the following at the site.

30tons of Sharp sand
20 tons of granite (it looks like the granite is the upper type, can it serve the purpose)
40 bags of cement
I am thinking of buying 500pcs. Can it be enough for the foundation?

What other materials do I need to provide?
I currently dont have the floor plan but experienced builders here can still give me a near estimate. It is a simple four bed, all in suit. Open kitchen, and a study.

I will be looking forward to reading form you.

Thank you.
