TravelRe: Daniel Ogoh: My Twin Brother Is Missing After Arriving Lagos Airport From UK by Skydivine: 6:49pm On Oct 22, 2024
hedonido:
When last did you hear this sort of thing happen? The airport taxis are all registered with FAAN, same as Uber/Bolt if he used the latter option. So I'm not really sure.
How are you sure he patronized any of those options. Sometimes if you want to save some money, you could just walk outside the arrival and take regular kabu kabu. There so many of those hanging around that Ikeja area.
Also if you live very far, you could take a taxi to bus park and then find your way from there.

You guys just like to talk. Even this technology is patent in US since 1960.
As usual what China does is copying and mass producing.
Technology is not invented in factories but at well funded research institutions like Harvard, MIT , Stanford , Yale, an Tuft which the US has plenty of.
If you know what patents means, then you should give credit to the appropriate quarters.

They need to modernise the skill acquisition process and apprenticeship programs and I know Lagos state is doing this cos the current system is akin to slavery

The government needs to set up post secondary technical schools of 2 years followed by 1 year stipend paid apprenticeship.

This way even graduates can participate and become owners of business instead of looking for employment.
But that is what polytechnics were meant to do. There is no aspect of building construction that is not taught at the polytechnics. However, the quest for paper certificate has derailed people from that primary purpose and turned polytechnics into another theoretical school, instead of the technology and hands-on training approach. People now see polytechnics as prerequisite for post graduate diploma and then masters. Students no longer take the opportunity of industrial attachment programs to nurture skills on what they learned during OND or HND. Everyone just wants to mark the register and get the credit for graduation, rather than learning during IT.
In the US, there are community colleges where one can learn to be plumber, electrician, welding, mechanic , HVAC, etc. These blue collar jobs are becoming more lucrative these days. With the needed oversight and regulations, people who graduate from such programs are very competent in their specific jobs.

Thanks for your replying.

So it's an extra of 12ft that will be added there, to the width?
72 by 100 ft for the full plot to still be full plot?
60 x 120ft is equal to 72 x 100ft

However , during construction, if the set back is say 20 ft.
On 60 x 120 you will lose 20 x 60 = 120sft
While on 72 x 100 you will lose 20 x 72 = 144sft of living area.

Please help me with exact specifics on this land Measurement calculations and understanding:

if a land that's supposed to be 60 by 120Ft (that's what you were told you are buying) is now made less by 100 in the length, what amount should be added in the balance of the width to make up for the 20 feet less in the Length?
70 by 100? 80 by 100?

How much exactly?
Maybe you have to go by the area in square ft. Since the original measurement was 60 x 120 therefore the intended area would be 7200sft.
Now the new length is 100ft
Divide 7200/ 100 and you have the new width.
So your new width is 72 ft.
As we say in maths, everything being equal. In my opinion, you are on advantage here because a wider lot is often preferred.

You captured everything succinct...not long ago i was invited to speak to youths in my village about self sufficiency and helping oneself...many of these people are complaining diasporans AIN'T HELPING THEM.(everyone get their own problem)I asked them " How many have learnt trades like block making or painting even Masonry or even Carpentery,plumbing and require a equipment to start ...NONE ...MANY want cash to do one business or the other or keke or keke
bus or even Japa without a plan.
Unfortunately, are no long in that type of world. Every young man wants to drive a G wagon at 23 years like the footballers they see on social media. You draw their ears, they call you Jew man or mugs. But they want to be like you now. How can you be a big man and be telling them to go do hard work . They forget that hard work is not hard life.
Recently, I gave a young boy 100k and in a few weeks he came back asking for more. When I asked what happened to the money, he said he lost it in betting. I didn’t know whether to cry, advice or curse him. I just blocked his number.

Most of them will hate you for telling them the truth, people don’t like being told the truth.
Personally, the only ones I help are very few that I have observed from a distance.

Appreciate your respectful disagreement Chief, but I also respectfully disagree.

Most people seeing that particular post would naturally assume those are his works. He needs to make clearer those are not his works.

For example, an unknown architect using a picture of Cocoa House to vaguely advertize his skills would be ridiculed and avoided, don't you think?

Even better, he needs to post his own works. That's all the reference he needs. People here are mostly generous in spirit.

Good day.

PS: I don't know the guy from Adam, it's just a principle thing.
I agree with you. It is important to reference any work or materials that are copied.
Also creating a kind of personal portfolio with collections of previous works done makes an artist or workman authentic.
