Let me tell you something, it's very dangerous. Radiation effects is like the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Don't try it. Just tell your dad to sell the house to me, because my skin is radiation proof. Mtshewwwww. It's like you people don't need money. 15 years contract and you are here worried about effects? Ok, some of the effects include better network coverage, increase in property value, increase in Land Use Charge etc. If you don't like this, then collect the money and relocate to America if you are bothered about the effects

Oga a simple Google search proves how wrong you are..
There is no radiation risks associated with living near a phone masts...
Verified by the National radiological board.

Please do your research very Well before commenting in a public space.There are actually health hazards associated with having Telecommunication mast located close To human habitation.Telecommunication gadgets installed on the mast will radiate non ionising radiation inform of radiowaves and microwaves.
Health implications:Radio waves and microwave are absorbed by the body when an individual is exposed to them and will cause internal heating of organs as acute effect and thereby result to organs damage as a chronic effect.

What will determine the severity of the risk here is the fact that you and your family will be exposed to this hazard for a long time as far as you continue to leave close to the mast.Normally ,if you are a technician who comes to service the installation,you will only be exposed in small doses withing occupational exposure limits (OEL)but in this case;your residency will ensure that you exceed the acceptable OEL.In as much as the deal is always a lucrative one,I pray that you and your family will not refund the money via medical bills in the future.

I rest my case.

According to WHO, there are no current scientific proofs of health hazards associated with telecommunication masts. however people have always rumored and complained about mast radiation causing cancer.. In developed countries almost all tower building both residential and office space have telecommunication mast on it and wealthy people are the ones living at the pent house tops.

Pros of such contract...
*You have access to Security light beaming into your compound and surroundings and that can scare away criminals
*The money is Good
*Security at the Mast location are usually 24/7 with CCTV and guards this means your house is free from burglers
*Extra Income from the lease of your property is not quite bad and you can always renegotiate from time to time
*You get to charge your phones and gadget there at anytime
*Owners of mast mostly have corporate social responsibility they perform for the host community

Cons...
*Sound from generator (always sound proof, but it still humes and vibrate)
*Your neighbors may resist the idea abit

When you hear 4m-5m and you are still trying to apply research from school, it shows your Village people is at work.

chinchonglee:

Try bargaining 4 a higher amount. If dem no gree den accept d 5m like dat... Dat tin gats no disadvantage except radioactive emissions.

Okay. Thanks

Op read this. Not discouraging u o.

id911:
Don't accept it, I repeat don't accept it! The money is too small for the kind of health hazard you guys would be exposed to later in life. If they can pay 10 million for the five years i.e 2 million for a year, collect the money, give them the place and relocate your family to a rented appartment far away from the electromagnetic radiation. Your land still belongs to you so, after five years, you may decide to renew it with higher pay or sack them. Do research about health hazards this mast has done to people in Europe and elsewhere in developed countries, that's why in most countries outside African, they are banned from putting it close to where people are staying.

A word is enough for the wise!

HABA! Fear God oooooo

Your post is not accurate.

Dat is if u don't mind dem taking over the property in the near future

ikorodureporta:


Are there CCTV in those masts?? Cos I'v been suspecting d one in my place, as if they're viewing us from their office

God don catch you, shebi you dey do bad thing abi...lol

holuwajobar:


Okay. Thanks

But read dis


Disadvantages of Radiation. Too much radiation is bad for you: In 1945 two nuclear bombs landed in Japan, the radiation caused nausea and vomiting. ... Last, but not least too much radiation can cause cancer, too much radiation can cause a cells mitosis to speed up which uncontrollably produces more cells.

Nice question. No health hazards. Take it if U need the money.

SultanOfAbia:


4 or 5 million is not enough for cancer treatment you will need if you decide to trade your life and health by been exposed to high frequency radiation for 15 years!!!! They know how hazardous it is that's why they buy you off with money.. For the sake of your Father's health do not allow them..

The mast communication equipment are high up in the sky not next to ur window. There are no major hazards. These equipment have been in many offices on the island and other places for years b4 getting to his place. There are no reported or documented hazards.

holuwajobar:
Let me be straight forward, I got a call from home (I'm in school), i was told that network providers want to use a part of the compound for erection of their mast. The deal is, 15 years agreement but they are ready to pay 4m-5m for the first 5 years of agreement.

Yeah, the agreement is juicy, but my concern is that, health wise, is it advisable to have a mast near a house?

If the health risk is high, i will tell my dad about the complications before he consider the offer.

Thanks

Your DAD should go for it....

The health hazards will be. taken care of during TSS(Technical site survey) by mounting the mast 5-10m away from the buildings surrounding it....

The Only negatives I see here is:

if it's going to be a conventional site(be prepared for the sound of the Gen set) because they will be running 24hrs.Though initially with mufflers to absorb the noise but as time goes on if the gen is not properly maintained by the engineers,the noise may get out of hand....

BUT,if it's going to be an hybrid site,where the Gen SET does not need to run every time because of other available sources of power,then go and rejoice!

Skyfornia:
Hmm...are they still erecting mast in this age?? Nigeria is truly a shithole.

Wetin dey for erect before?

Living in Nigeria alone is detrimental to your health so what are you saying again. About the disease, nothing has been proved. As long as our white genius has not been able to prove it then it doesn't cause anything. Collect d deal or I go swear for you oooo.

Ask yourself this question. Placing Ur phone(receiver) in Ur pocket is considered dangerous because of effect of electromagnetic waves on Ur scrotum. Remember the mast (transmitter) is far away.

Now imagine you staying in the (transmitter) right of way 24/7. If the antenna radiating the waves are facing your house, remember the wave is dispersed in hyperbolic form, so even if u are under d mast, u r under the influence of the wave. Just imagine what you will expose yourself 24/7 in d next 15yrs just for 4m. If you and your brothers become impotent in the future, blame your father.

Masts are meant to be sighted on mountain tops for easy reach and outside d vicinity of homes.

To be fore warned is to be fore armed. A friend did his master's thesis on the effects of electromagnetic radiation on humans and the result was eye opening

Op check out this link.
The national radiological board says there are no risks living near masts..
I will advise you guys to negotiate that money to something close to 8m at least

Sholaco:
Well I heard that the radiation from it s not good

Ha-ha, weytin concern mast with radiation?? When the network isn't gotten from solar energy

I won’t advise it because of the studies on radio magnetic waves and cancer related sickness and illnesses even brain tumors my grandmas family has one in the compound even visiting I felt my brain just hurt somehow can’t explain sha but I won’t advise it the money they offer is not enough for longterm hospice care

It is advisable to relocate.




Please, boss i am looking for dis opportunity , how can i reach u to connect with them .thanks

Okay sir ,Thanks

Tell pale to collect the money. All verification has been done and EIA report was done too.

I am not in touch with them. We were not expecting it, they just came to survey the street and saw that our compound will be okay maybe because the compound is so wide

Are there higher cancer rates in these developed countries?

I rest my case.

There are two types of radiation- ionising and non-ionising. Those emanating from the Antennas and microwaves are non-ionising. The effect of non-ionising radiation is the increase in body temperature by 6deg Celsius. The minimum offset stipulated by WHO is 5m between the equipment and existing building. NCC regulations state 7m but most Infrastructure Companies use 10m at minimum.

However, the equipment are usually at heights more than 15m from Ground level.

From personal research, the effect of towers is majorly environmental in nature. These include Noise Pollution, Air Pollution, Land Pollution. However, there are mitigating factors that are contained in EIA and EIS to reduce to the bearest minimum these aspects.

My brother if you accept that juice offer of 4m every 5 years, by next 15 years 4m will be $2k dollars, by 20 years ahead is NP longer money. Therefore let the agreement be in dollar but pay with naira equivalent. 4 million naira today is $11,000. Let the agreement remain in $11k and they can pay every 5 years the dollars naira equivalent. The tele company know they cheat people with code 5 years. Apply my ideas and you will see them sending people to your family to consider to accept naira or they can even run away because they meet a real business man. Remember you can't sack them easily with this kind of government and judiciary we have when the money become peanut in future and they refuse to pay. You can't use that land to build again, they will claim you sole the land to them in future. But with $11k every 5 years your big man in any currency. Don't accept naira agreement and don't go less than that instead make it $15,000 every five year if they don't like they can look else where. They are not the one to decide to you how to rent your land for you neither the amount to rent. Some people make the same mistakes 6 years ago, I told them that 500,000 naira which $3,500 then will later worth less but they think am envy cause is not on my land. Today what is value of 500k nair to dollar below $1,500. Shine your eyes
