I don't know what materials they are made of, the guy that bought them has a deep pocket, spent over 5million for few electrical accessories alone, wow. By the time he bought all appliances, electronics, he may probably spend another 20millon on those items alone. Bravo to him. I have not gotten to wiring stage yet, Twinskenny got me covered.

Faithful007: The citizens don't need guns. It is the guns themselves that causes the unrest. Look at advanced European countries with tough gun laws. So why the craze for guns if citizens don't need it? For 397 million guns to exist in a country (Outside that of security men and women), something untold must be going on. |

EgunMogaji2: My advice to clients and friends is to stockpile materials. For those with no land to buy two adjoining plots so they can sell one later. I did something similar (abeit in another estate), right now facing issues with one of the lands. So they are begging I give them time to sort the issue.. Seems another party got right to the same estate land they sold to us.... A land with C of O that's genuine! I actually bought this particular land so that when money is needed in bulk, it can be sold to continue pending projects. |

I can't do it all at once but I want to be doing it step by step with each income I have. Sir, its not easy at all. Na to hold and do according to your power. once you have bulk money, divert it straight to something on the list. What I have done for a while now is to quickly pay for any of the projects in advance to avoid vendors coming back to say there's an increase in prices... Just try and get prices of each projects to be done and pay in advance once the money is there.. But then you need to shine your eyes before you pay money to smooth criminals... |

The batteries has 10years warranty I think this is a good bargain for him. 10 years warranty..so he's going to enjoy power for good 10 years for that amount. That's like ₦870k annually. What I'm spending on the windows eh.. But then taste = cost. |

There are 397 million guns owned by citizens in the United States of America of a population of 330 million people (A population that includes children).
Guns are more than people in the United States of America.
Questions = Why should a safe and peaceful country have more guns than people?
Why do citizens need so many guns if the country is safer and peaceful as we have it in movies and news? |

Chandelier 2nos x 425,000 = 850,000 Dining Light 1no x 75,000 = 75,000
Recess light, spotlight, external light, bulkhead fittings, etc 2,970,000.00
TOTAL N5,592,000
He bought everything in Ikoyi a well known company.
Below is the picture of the sockets My brother, good finishing is not an easy something especially when you are not a yahoo yahoo or politician. All the same, if one wishes to build a HOME, he or she should go all the way towards getting satisfaction. Windows and burglaries alone ehh Whoever is building now is trying.. Just pitying those to build later and have good taste ..hopefully things will fall in good places before then. |

If after 2023, a northerner becomes the president, it will prove that what has been happening in the past 4 to 8 years has been pure politics.
With the way the South became so vocal against the North and with all the insecurity (While blaming fulani tribe), voting for another fulani northerner would be the biggest irony on earth.

Tinubu can't beat Atiku because alot of southerners won't even vote for him.
Since it has come to this, no choice but to throw Jonathan back into the mix except you want power remaining in the north. |
