increase of building materials in 2018 start with Sand Miner's follow by Granite Miner's then others follow suit, now the big one Cement manufacturer add N50 to their product yesterday cement now sell for N2,580-2,600/bag. After all these my fear is iron rod this is the most annoying materials its method careless may add N500 or above. God help us

If they like increase every seconds, my prayer is if God says is time for you to build no man can stop you. God bless my clients & intending ones at the closest point to be discourage... Thank you Baba God.... e ku materials price hike oooo.

I had a backpack Echo blower that claimed it could blow a brick over 6ft. I bought it and tested it and even on a not so smooth driveway, it sent the brick over 6ft. I sold if after. See this video from Echo https://www.echo-usa.com/Videos/Blowers/PB-755-Power

this one is strooooong

Commonsense101:

You remind me of cityhood.... LOUD, & GARRULOUS with an exaggerated sense of relevance.

I wouldnt trust you with a cent of My Money even if you have worked for sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed himself.
If you're arrogant and foolish enough to be this openly abusive, then It no longer matters how many million reviews you have coaxed out of previous customers.

The true test of integrity will come when things go south and you have to choose between your customer's interest and yours. Not all this I supplied N100m without meeting the customer in person.Thats nothing special except to a fraud. It is going out of your way to do the right that sets you apart.

Nobody is asking you to agree to conditions you are not comfortable with in the first place , what they're telling you to do is have the commonsense to decline politely and engage courteously. Instead of coming here talking nonsense like some street urchin.
How many 1.5m have you spent lately.

Juokorow:

Please consider that this “Who 1.5m Epp” comment is not appropriate and is diluting the substantive merits of your case, based on facts, which some may never acknowledge. Again, that phrase is simply inappropriate.

Thanks sir for the advice!!

Now we’re talking.

Or even using a blower in case of water conservancy.

Why not simply employ someone to sweep it.

The Yoruba language is so rich. There is a symantic for every occassion. So how does one meaningfully translate this to English:

1) Una do well for materials price hike oooo!

2) Una do well to accommodate materials price hike oooo!

3) Make una enjoy price hike oooo!

4) Thanks for being reasonable to materials price hike oooo!

Which is a better translation? I like number 4.

Dozen or so ke? You're mistaken Boss. We have only about 20 or so cable manufactureres nationwide and the bulk of them are located in the West.
Cutix , Geoelis, Scan and one other brand I cannot remember right now are the only cable manufactures in the east to the best of my knowledge. Most of the others you see Like CDivine and co are imported, even tho they are branded "Nigeria Wire" , they have no manufacturing plant here.

Market penetration of the eastern brands is not as high as it should be, Considering the small number of manufacturers relative to the large market there. Most sellers prefer to stock the cheaper imported brands that give them higher turnovers . For every coil of local brand sold, there's probably ten times more of the imported alternative sold.

You're very right about COLEMAN not being so popluar there, the eastern brands are still managing to gain grounds.

However, There are requirements for which COLEMAN is the only local option.
For instance COLEMAN is currently the only local brand that manufactures:
-RG - 5/6 Coaxial Cables (TV wire)
-CAT 5/6/6e Cables ,
-Marine Cables,
-And the first to manufacture XLPE high voltage cables in West Africa. (Currently not being done by any other company in Nigeria)
Plus a number of other speciality cables.

They are the largest Cable Manufactuter in West Africa both Volume & Variety wise.

Finally remembered the fourth Eastern Manufacturer.....VECAN cables (Onitsha).

I was actually wrong about having up to twenty local cable manfacturers. To the best of my knowledge and from available directories there are only 16 Cable Manufacturing companies Nationwide,

West:
COLEMAN
Nigerchin
Nexans KabelMetal
MicCom
Comet star
Purechem
Nigeria Wire & Cable
BRACON
BERLIAC

East:
CUTIX
Geoelis
SCAN
Vecan

North:
NOCACO
ALIND
KLYSAT

Any brands outside of these are imported.

Please add if I left any out.
