Yampotatocarrot:
If periwinkles are harvested in the coastal regions, does that mean there are areas in Lagos where periwinkles can be harvested?
The south south coastal area are usually mangrove vegetation with a certain PH level of the water. This type of vegetation stretching the entire bank of the river ensures that the mud and the eco system are somewhat covered for the optimal temperature, and the fallen leaves also add to the available nutrients. The periwinkles need that muddy environment to thrive.
So it is very different from the terrain in Lagos which is more salty and sandy ( eg bar beach) from Atlantic Ocean.

Wait and see until he gets a good grasp on terrain and who is who in that Abuja.

This is not how periwinkles are harvested. They are harvested while the water is still there or deep in the river. This method will only give you dead rotten ones that couldn’t swim with tide.

To get good healthy ones, you have to dive down inside the river and get to the bottom with a basket to scoop them and resurface.
You need a small boat to float around and a very long raffia stick to detect where the periwinkles are clustered. As you gently sail the boat , you use the raffia stick to push down on the river bed to feel the clusters. That is how you know they are there.
Dive in, scoop a basket full, resurface and and empty into the boat. Repeat.
The process is called to Nmim nmfi in Efik language.

its better you blacks stay out of this issues....

Where do you expect the West to import non Islamics from to head the country? Is that even possible? The only solution is to look for a lesser evil so to say. The evil that can be controlled.

Mandate1:
don't mind the dude. He knows nothing.

He thinks the revenue govt makes form traders is just the shop taxes. There are indirect taxes traders pay.

If 10,000 containers berth at the Lagos port, and let's say each container cost 2m to clear. Multiply this and see what the govt will likely make from the traders. If some of these containers contain cars, for u a buyer to utilise the car, the person must do all registration and pay all levies.
Every vehicle that arrives into any Lagos port is levied before it leaves the port by Lagos state government. It does not matter if it would be driven or sold in kafanchag

By the way, on the low average, the cost to clear one 40ft container is about #10M.
Multiply by 10,000 containers is #100B.
Politics › Re: Tax Reform Bills: 10 Largest Taxpayers In 2024 by Skydivine:
The main problem is that almost all the companies listed there have their branches across all states in Nigeria.
So they make their money from these states but that profit is tallied at the headquarters in Lagos. Meaning In theory that a company in Lagos is making the profit and then the taxes are collected by Lagos government.

How is this right?

Hycon:
Please do you need the following to lay tiles?

Tiles gum 50 bag
White cement 5kg 7 bag
Genesis 15 pieces
70 bag of cement
20 tones of sand

Got two quotes. One tiler didn’t include gum and genesis.
It’s most likely wall tiles are involved and there are bigger size tiles.
For the genesis, you will definitely see where they would be installed. So no wayo for that one.
Secondly, the quantity of cement is in agreement with the quantity of sand . I would assume you have about 250 square meters to work on.

Off grid solar inverter

The advantage of flat roof!
But flat roofs are not inclined enough to give the solar panels the required reflective angle.
For optimal rays from the sun to reach the panels, both must be at 90 degrees (perpendicular) to each other.

Now, here is where it gets tricky.
The sun is only overhead ( straight 90 degrees with a flat roof) just at around midday.
For the most of the day, after rising at the East in the morning with little intensity, the sun orients to the the west for the rest of the day. And this duration is when it it most intense.

Therefore, ideally the solar panel should incline to make that 90 degrees with sun rays coming from the west.

A flat roof would need additional studs to achieve this orientation unlike an already inclined roof.

If something is not beneficial or not working the way it should, then it’s should be discarded.
So many non state actors have hijacked the movement to perpetuate all sorts of criminal activities.
Open daylight robbery , extortion, intimidation, restriction of movement, parading with all sorts of weapon is not part of a healthy society. Let’s call a spade a spade.
Ndi Igbo need a rethink. Breeding of illegal gangs and groups is a backward option that is causing serious setbacks within alot of communities.
Let be truthful to ourselves. We have missed it, let’s not flog this dead horse.

This is a way to further divide SS and SE votes and at the same time finally split PDP votes if Atiku will also run under PDP. Assuming GEJ would run under a different party.

Whose area of specialty is it to install interior wall panels ? Is it Carpenter, pop guys, mason or interior decoraters?

Or does it depend on the material of the wall panel?

She could bring a civil lawsuit against the teacher, the school and ministry of education. Now that they have openly accepted guilt.

There should be monetary compensation especially from the ministry, for the misconduct of their own employee.

By the way, assault is a criminal offense. In a saner clime, the teacher ought to have been arrested.

To solve this tax issue, it better that all multinationals that want operator in other states must have their headquarters in Abuja. Abuja should be collecting that VAT not Lagos .
Even if it’s one room to represent as headquarters in Abuja.

See this slowpoke!
🤣

Them born una?


When your fathers wererunning naked in the forest,Yorubas were living in those houses with corrugated sheets.

You don't have any history to allude to.
Nothing, zilch, nada!

You could not organise yourselves.
You had no cities, no stories, no lores.

When you went for your aimless war, good people
ensured the few houses your unfortunate lot had were taken care off until you came back.

They even rented them out and paid you back in full the rent accrued.
Yet your response is a vile attempt at gaslighting?

...and who is a unity beggar?
Who cares if you leave or stay?

When they ask you to leave the South-West tomorrow, you wailing would start again.

If you are so serious about leaving, pack your things and get the funk out.
Nobody cares-- at least, we don't
Any other thing is plain idiocy.

Unity beggar...?
Beg who?
🤣

Such narcissism!
Look at this frustrated he goat. It is your father that is gaslighting.
A minute ago he just admitted that Igbos developed his ancestral land and rented the houses to his forefathers. Is it my fault that laziness runs in your bloodline?
Now he is running around and grasping on every straw of word for excuses and denials.

An iimbecile with no iota of shame whose life is about to be cut short from COPD due to rusted roof.
Go ask your parents who were agbo traders where they found money to build houses. Your progenitors stole Igbo”s property but could not maintain it. Now everything is falling apart on their head.
The new strategy now is “Igbos go back to your place.” No sire, it won’t work this time. Take your theiving eyes off Igbos properties in the SW. Get off your lazy ass and find something doing for your miserable life.

One moment you want Biafra, the next you are not going anywhere...

Sounds like a mental illness to me.

And so you know, nobody cares about some stupid property.

After thr Civil War, your prople came back to the West and their properties were handed over to them including the rent accrued over that time.

...But you are too stupid and toxic to tell the truth.


...and what is my business with the picture of a handful of people eating Amala?
Or you want to use that to equate how desperate your people are to escape?

Alaye, ask those people to leave tomorrow and they would, with no fuss.
They are not fighting tooth and nail to stay.
Now the truth is coming out little by little. So Igbos have been buying up your ancestral land and developing them with rental properties even before the 60s.
You generation must be ashamed of your malady for you to think everyone is a unity begger like your folks.
It’s goods that you never denied having family in SE as well.
Child of circumstance with poverty infested rusty brown . Most of which were converted from the Igbos during war. But they couldn’t maintain them.
Guess why? It’s easy come easy go.

If you want Biafra, start by leaving other zones and going home first.

...and oh well, the investors have benefitted my kith and kin in several ways.
As it stands the South West is the best place to be in the Country.

Miles better than the East.
So?

...and despite that picture being one of the several beautiul ones you can take in the city, who cares if it is the best one?

I have provided you close to 1hr of video references and you keep frothing at the mouth over a picture.
Is this insanity, stupidity or both?
If that 1 hour video of clusters of rusted brown roofs in Ibadan is what you call development and a point of reference , then your case is irredeemable.
I swear, there is nowhere to shame someone who has no shame.

Your plan is to inherit Igbos property in Ibadan like you did in 1967.. It will not work this time. Igbos are not going anywhere.
You want one Nigeria, yet you are threatening Igbos to leave your place. Are you that confused or just being a retard?
Imagine an asshole who cannot change common roofing since 1800 claiming beneficiary of foreign investments in Nigeria.

Of course, your lies and deceitful ways will never let you know yourself.

You can start by telling us what you will do with these your family members living in Aba.
