It is so disheartening that we found ourselves in this situation. We prefer spending more on importation rather than building our own so as to create more employment opportunities.
I just hope we would get it right someday. |

onlinetomola: Opposition ogini ? These two parties and others had meeting with PDP a week before election in Oyo State and concluded on giving and raking their followers votes for PDP governorship candidate in other to have their own returns when the deal is done. This is just the way of showing his loyalty. If it's APC or that Alao Akala's party now, then i can call that opposition parties. When a political party is not strong enough to field a candidate for an election then it would be to their best interest to support a party which they considered well suitable. On the part of the governor I'll say kudos for keeping to the promises. However, such action is also a win win for the people of Oyo State as it would enable more hands to help in driving the state to a greater level. |

khalifjgusau: You can serve from the comfort of your guest room since it's allowed in Christianity. Building a mosque is necessary for every Muslims enclave, since it is not permissible to delay the prayer beyond its time, so you must organize your time at work and business in a way that will not interfere with your performing the prayers on time, anyway, thanks for the observation... Even after their compulsory prayer session they'll still return to their normal killing and bombing. What a funny religion. |

Kuluuu: @OP while all the points you raised are germane, sand types and quality also contribute to it. If you doubt me, check houses in Abuja to confirm what am saying. Hardly can you see a building in Abuja without dampness and yet they observe all those precaustion you mentioned. Observing all the precautions without taking consideration into what type of foundation is required on such a land. The first factor before building is to know the type of foundation required, then observing every other procedures using the best practices. Unfortunately,some clients will always see a good contractor as too expensive not knowing that cutting corners would eventually leads to more spending on repairs and corrections. |
Family › Re: I'm Worried About My Son's Behaviour. Is He Normal? by phorget(m): 8:06am On Aug 21, 2019 |
jess2019: My son will be 9 in October but his behaviour bothers me so much. He acts like a day dreamer. He has turned me into a shouting and miserable mum as I had to beat him after I've exhausted other punishment options. To make this short, I'm going to summarise his behaviour.
He still cannot get himself ready for school in the morning. Either he doesnt cream his body or forgets to comb his hair or doesnt brush his teeth. He forgets to brush his teeth almost everyday. This made me to make a list of step by step sticker. I sticked this on their bathroom mirror and on his bedroom wall. Yet I have to keep reminding him everyday. For example, last week on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday he forgot to brush his teeth and hair. I have to constantly be reminding him every morning. He is the only one that brushes teeth after getting ready. I trained them to brush teeth first before shower but he keeps forgetting.
I have to remind him to do his homework, and put it back in his school bag to return to school on Mondays. The book will still not make it to the school even after constant reminder. We've lost countless of lunch bags. One ended up on school roof. If you give him any form to submit back to his teacher. He will forget in his bag so I now give it to his sister to give to his teacher.
He removes his clothes, shoes, pants, belts etc and leave them on the floor, I bought two laundry baskets for him. One in his room, another in their bathroom, yet all his belongings end up on the floor that you can hardly find a space to put a foot. I dont expect him to be perfect but atleast to try so that his 70% clothes make it to the basket or shoes to their racks. He also has a book shelf and desk yet they also end up on the floor.
He plays so much that sometimes he leaves shops with items in his hands. So I have to always watch out for him. Living in a western country where black boys are stereotyped I fear for him. He can stare at the ceiling for hrs when getting ready for school or spend long time in the shower yet not using soap on his body. This usually makes us late unless I step in to help or keep shouting.
If you ask him to do any house chores, he will not do it instead waiting for us to forget so he can get away with it. When grounded not to watch TV, he will still do it once he knows am inside my room or busy with a baby.
Yesterday we revised all his lesson assignments (5 work books). I specifically asked him to put them in his lesson bag. I pointed at the bag. Now I drop him at the lesson only for him to say oh I think I came with old lesson books. I dont know how he ended up with old books in his bag. It could be he planned it as a way to avoid the lesson. If not I wonder how he will remember it himself as soon as I drop him and his sister as this is unlike him.
I've taken him to a doctor incase there is any diagnosis so I can give him all the help he needs but they said it's just his behaviour because according to the doctor he is smart academically. He is 18months ahead of his year level. So they ruled ADHD out. Bring him back to Nigeria and make sure he resides in the core North. Whenever boko haram attacks let us see if he will remember to run for safety. |

michelz: This is utterly disgraceful. It is what you get when a section of people refuse to heed to sound advice from people who mean well for them and believe they know it all.
Now look at this: you want Biafra, yet you go about destroying the same structures and people that could help you get your Biafra - even your own people. You now see why a lot of people are not comfortable with this Biafra thing? A country that that could degenerate to crass lawlessness. Igbos should start reorientating their young ones; start impacting positive characters, aspirations and values that the great Igbo was once known for. @ gidgiddy. He who slaps his own father wouldn't think twice before breaking someone else's fathers head. The igbos are only communicating to all other leaders no matter whose tribe you belong. |

Please what are the possible breakdown .
Thanks so much for replies . A 3 bedroom duplex can cost you any amount depending on some factors which includes; #Your budget as this would determine basically what would be spent on erecting your structure. For example, would your budget cover for a standard 150mm of german floor or should we just reduce ot to a 100mm thickness floor or should we just overlook german floor all together. With 20m budget you'll be good to have your 3bedroom delivered in one piece. |
