EgunMogaji: I love terrazzo and see it's used a lot in churches now. It's my preferred flooring for our buildings. An architect friend of ours laughed at me when I told him we would use terrazzo. He said it was old school. Later that year he got in touch seeking information because he was bidding for a contract in Abuja. A government agency in the financial sector had decided it wanted the tiles in its reception removed and terrazzo installed. 2015. The problem is getting the skilled workman, and ensuring that the required amount of materials is used. We buy and stock the chippings and cement so there is no room for them to cut corners. 2 Likes |

AngelicBeing: I was just shattered at how some people can keep everything in sharp focus and remind you of what you said a few years back! Truly, this internet ...and people like commonsense101, never forget! Better to always keep it straight, always. Reminds me of this lady that said all her clothes are designer labels she buys in Italy...until a few weeks later, she was caught 'selelcting Okrika at Bend-down Botique'. Some people ehn, dey can 'lie-mohamed' for Nigeria. 7 Likes

aonag: There was a vendor that advertised terrazzo here awhile back. Not sure about the quality though. You’re right, though sometimes even though the materials are here but the execution and workmanship sometimes lack. |

aonag: Yes. Terrazzo is not that popular anymore and have been replaced by tiles and granites due to the cost, and Naija follow-follow mentality. But you can still get Terrazzo artisan with good finish as you have shown, it's just a matter of finding one. Hajji M. |

It seems a lot of us are interested in Terrazzo. The only logical thing to do is to find an Artisan for Nairaland. Does anybody has a contact for Terrazzo Artisan on here Instead of us talking about it, lets be about it!!! LOL mufutau55: 1 Like |

true2home: https://www.nairaland.com/4331396/epoxy-floor-design-system-ashmark#64811818 I have no interest in terrazzo personally, I think it's dated. Polished concrete is something I really like. |

This evening, Nigeria Customs raised the import duty on Solar Panels.. I think they noticed alot of middle-class Nigerians are sold to the idea of Solar panels. Nigeria is not ready to provide Electircity for its citizens and it seems they don't want us to provide for ourselves too.. I don't know if its the Generator Cabal or the EDC's doing this or the government is just looking for money crazily. 4 Likes |

KolaShangOne:Your last paragraph are the monsters preventing or hindering most of the efforts government seems to be doing to provide power for the country, and as long as they are profiteering from the system, don't expect constant power supply in Nigeria, it is called dog chop dog system of government |

twinskenny: One can argue though that this makes for a fertile environment for someone to start manufacturing. As with most other things, the Chinese and other foreigners will swoop in and make a killing. |

twinskenny: Someone posted a gas station that was fully solar powered too. A relative bought into a Lekki scheme that promised electricity. So now they have the normal Naija disruptive service and yet they won't let them use a gas generator. Sometimes we put the cart before the horse. But at least it's not banned sha. |
