Smoothness isn't here.

Smile, I like the way you define it' in categories, you're right about average successful igbos displaying wealth that they have arrived with high roof mansion. Very very successful Igbos with money bags, I mean money big money NEVER display their wealth they play safe underground. I knew some of them that have branches in Nigeria, have main companies in China where they don't display wealth. Do you guys know the card reader that Nigeria used for election is made by Igbo man form Anambra. You don't what to know how much Nigeria government pay him for that software. Yoruba man hummmm, don't know about simple duplex. I remember 2011 when I went to Abuja Agis office with my friend for land documents, on our way back to his office I saw people sharing money in his office, he work's with one of the big real-estate agent. When I asked my friend in the office he get 250k from his boss, I then asked for mine they kuku give me 50k that day after sharing, I then ask what is going with this money sharing they told me Mike Adenuga just brought and paid them 1billon to buy his neighbor house to make room for his garage, imagine that.

I just want to pass this information to those building in Ibadan axis and struggling with portable water sourcing.

See the attached photos. The company just successfully concluded a borehole project in Oluyole area. The total cost is just under 500k.

This doesn't include the geological survey. This was done separately. Some forego this aspect but it's recommended. The project is a micro estate cum retirement holiday home. The geological survey identified three spots on the site. This was handed to the borehole company and they settled for the site with the best yield.

If you are having water challenges, you may try this approach. It was successful. Please note that there are some sites in same location that the water table is a challenge, hence the need for a geological survey. There are sites in the same vicinity with no water.

I'm not recommending the company or speaking for them. All I'm saying is that the company just successfully concluded a borehole project without drama.

So if you want to adopt this approach, please do your independent due diligence. No money was sent remotely. Someone was on ground and the company's office was visited. Money only exchanged account when the company was on site.

Do your due diligence independent of this information. Or do your due diligence to substantiate this information. My responsibility stops here.

Mr okenwa mentioned scredding will fix the cracks. I saw this scredded wall and the plastering crack is still very visible.

I appreciate all the opinions given.

For those building in Ado -odo otta, does the local govt collect any money for decking. A notice was placed on my build asking me to pay 100k for the decking

2 things involved in plastering to get good results
- selection of materials sand/ cement
- professionalism.

Reason why I do go extra miles to get good results in all my plastering/ rendering work.

Check below diff states in Nigeria where I carried out some finishings and construction work.
You hardly see cracks. In difficult situations of getting good sand I do apply another methodology to get minimal tiny crack in one or two places if the work is gigantic one .

Pics below are plastering NOT SCREEDING

You are really mad, idiot.


This is not a day or a year deals with him, this is approximation of supplies from him overtime.

Do you remember I said I have been dealing with mountmoriah for over 5years.

The 12tons I got from him last week alone is N4, 920, 000

@N410k per ton.

Do you know how many of my friends I have introduce to him.

I don't know the problem of some people here on this forum.

debeey87:


I will assume the other workers he used did this part cos he isn't a rookie

diordaves:


I'm sorry, this doesn't look like a cusmetic crack. This could be a different type of crack. It looks structural. Any screeding in this situation might just be papering over the crack.

In all this stuff going on, our trust worthy forum elders like Mufutau55 and several others has been 'unusually' quiet. Egunmogaji2 has been subtly involved which is good at least.

That's NOT right, egbon. Say something at least. It might be of little or no concern to you atm but, it'll go a long way to further convince & protect innocent newbies from falling victims to these fraudulent gangsters and syndicates.

As tomorrow is MLK's day in the U.S, I'll leave this quote for this forum's trusted elders that chose to remain quiet during these 'dark times'.

You are right about the attracting attention part.
If you read my last screenshot response to spyder880, you would see were I categorically mentioned at the onset, that [/b]I intended to build a house that would “ pepper my village people the most.” That is the whole idea. Maybe a vacation home or for future retirement, time would tell.
No apologies.
What else does one need in this short life?
The house I currently live in is worth at least 10 times this one.
There are other ones occupied by strangers.
