Sometimes we fell victim of what people don't want. I understand how dangerous is using another man's work/plan without the owner aware. My story: When I was looking for how to go about the kind of plan for my dream house, I went online and download many plan before I chose one/two plan for people to help me look into before I finally go with one. I have committed offence. What do I say again 1 Like |

I understand its your creative idea with owner taste, which I believe the owner as compensate you for your creative effect. In that regard, the rightful owner is the only one that I believe can make that decision, on who can reused that drawing. The guy may've try to used it out of ignorance.This act should be discouraged and condemn,we need to be very careful in infringement of intellectual right, its a very serious crime. |

hoyo: If it’s your home then a lot depends on your equipment but generally price and quantity is excessive so the question I would put to him are. 1) Generally one does not need to earth the light and supply so I am assuming that the 10 green 1.5mm is for the socket hence why is there another 10 green 2.5mm it’s either not both. 2) 16mm copper wire at 75k generally only 10mm supply is necessary in a residential setting at 48-50k. Often times 1 of each(red and black) will do. 3) to connect to the earthing rod a 4mm would do but if you choose a 6mm it’s your call but you would not need both and often times 1 roll is enough. 4) Since you are not building a school you do not need 45 pieces of 1.5mm for light and neither do you need 30 pieces of 2.5mm Often times this is an area where I generally have allowed a free hand but then noticed how even plumbers, welders were walking off site with rolls of wire so I became very observant about uses and I also had at least one materials vendor who was of great help in educating me. 2 Likes 1 Share |

No mind our people. I lived in a house in multiple occupation with other 3 graduates in the UK all women and when it became time to redecorate it was only the African child ie mua that was looking for a painter. We did all our gardening too. Them no get money and to trim hedges something that would take me one hour and na me old pass oh na so all of them go fold hand they claim big man.

The whole process has taken so much money already. I spoke to ChekitAut who is in to selling of building materials and he advice me to post here and I will see members who will be willing to help, he also said my brother has done a very bad job you can see it from the first picture uploaded here.

gabbytabby: AngelicBeing:this is why I don't deal with Nigerians. So sad that some Nigerians would deliberately cheat people. I do my business plain and clear. Anything less of that is no go area for me. I have been in real estate for over 12yrs in America. I'm never gonna allow nincompoops to take advantage of my hard earned wealth. All my properties I bought, I did Due Deligenge before making big move. I am never gonna be maga. Not only Nigerians leaders are guilty of corruption but the people as well. I don't know why they always have negative thoughts like scams. The other day I met a Nigerian who has dental problem but he has no papers to have insurance coverage. So I said he should go to general hospital because theirs is cheaper and you pay little by little monthly. And at some point they write it off. Guess what he said?. He asked me if he can give them fake name and wrong address and get treatment?. I said why do you people always have negative mindset. I tire o 6 Likes |

It’s unfortunate but that was also my stand for a long time when my dad was encouraging me to invest in 9ja. I only agreed to one where I looked at it as throwey money about 100-200 pounds. The land was in litigation for years and them kill themselves over it such that it was worthless for a long while and then we had to buy it again but same land is now going for 12m. You must get liver and do your due diligence so for me I done come to the end of the road for 9ja as I am getting too old for the unecessary stress. Na simple life from now. What encouraged me about 9ja was the eastern/western block merger of the European Union. Something just did not sit well with me with the ultranationalist/right ideology so I decided to diversify. Couple with rheumatism which made it desirable to be in a warm country. Empiree: 2 Likes |

Empiree:My brother that is the mindset of our people in western world especially the new arrivals, many of them thought they were smarter then us. The won’t listen until they get themselves in trouble end up saving 10- 25 years in jail. This 419 thing is inside most of our people DNA, at the end the start blaming government for everything the did wrong. 2 Likes 1 Share |
