Ekondo street is a very quiet layback off street. From where it starts at White House to the end at Atu street, I doubt they would be home security cameras.

Where is coconut rice?

Alkanelly:
Here is the house, the size is 22.9m X 11.5m

The price is ok. Consider that if you do them separately, like outside, inside, under decking and parapet, it will cost you even more.
Window dressing and doors plastering will cost you more later.
Except you will include those in the negotiations now and they will return to do them once you have the actual windows and doors in place.

In one Yoruba adage which says “ ohun tii eye jee nii eye maa gbe foo… literally means what bird ate is what it will fly with.

Is like you are Ambassador of “Tom-ford sir

Exactly.
There is nothing wrong with being a brand ambassador . But when you force yourself to become one like hush puppy did, that is where greed and trouble starts.

rotecch77:
My last paragraph earlier says it all about luxuries stuffs.
This is my 11years here as a registered member and i knew we have Dangote, Tony Elumelu, Femi otedola, etc here joke apart.
I could remembered I told our current resident welder guy “Mitchelin here when he started here fully then.

$1800 shoe #iwillneverbepoor#.
If you are not legit like some of our money bags nairalander clients here “ to put body o oo if not den go kalas u.

That reminds me of Bornaboy
Dangote still Dey find money oo
U I be wey I no go find money.

Pls sir add me to the list of those you have plan to help this year end sir

See ehhh, the thing is this life is very short. I know it. What most people will regret is not what they did, but mostly what they didn’t do. I have seen people come and go, and have seen what those they left behind did with the money they couldn’t spend.
You see this life, na better money I never see. But the small God has blessed me with, I not fit kill myself !

rotecch77:
Truly there is price for quality.
But it’s not alway someone need to break bank to get what will serve you for long.
White elephant spending is not the answer always for premium things.

Not until I buy TOM FORD Monk strip of $1600 before my shoe will last for some years
I bought Watch of only $150 8yrs ago and it’s working like new till now it doesn’t fade.

But if you have money for designer things BUY ooo
#iwillneverbepoor#

It is not about the shoe lasting. Some buy it because they like branded items. Bought a pair of Tom Ford last Christmas for $1800.

The problem is systemic but we keep flipping people.

People want to do what is right and want their peace of mind in every transaction BUT then the bureaucracy and redtapes are just too many.

I was in the surveyor general’s office to track the status of an application for governor’s consent last week. You need to see the way the guys there were making things difficult for us as if we were there to beg them.

Anything that would require you to meet with a typical Naija civil servant is bound to be difficult!


========

Last week, I was served a notice by a team led by one of the newly sworn-in commissioner and other top civil servants. They left a phone number that’s not going on the notice. No email address! No detailed contact information!

Am I supposed to be going to the commissioners office anytime I have any concern or need to clarify anything I’m unclear about.

These are the things we could do online but they will never allow such happen.


The same apply to land transactions. By now, Lagos should have a repository where land buyers/owners can pay to obtain information about any land in Lagos without having to talk to one Barrister/TPL/or a muyiwa working in the commissioners office.

But then, we are first Nigerian!

In case anyone needs a lawyer for that at Alausa, I know one.

n3xt:
What would you have done in this situation though? I want to learn and I have something to share as well.

The main issue here is being able to investigate any land before you even pay. I am sure someone at Alausa has the right information. Most times, people just ignore warning signs. Or they go ahead even when it’s obvious, just because others are buying.

somehow:
True

Thanks to Gracias's CEO for refunding abeit 10% less.

She was very apologetic after waiting for 2 years without approval.

Two years ago when a dollar was 450. The person then refunded now that a dollar is #1300. And also took 10%. No be juju be that?

folmus:
Security of things like iron rods too is not guaranteed.
Boys go my site in Sagamu go scrapped the protruding irons after the DPC for my pillars.

This is very wicked. Big structural damage. What will be the repair solution in this case?

gbadexy:
Confirmed.

Seconded.

Yorubold, come and make your Osun/ Anambra Comparison here.

yoruboid:
It’s obvious you’re the illiterate here

It’s either you can’t read or you lack comprehension

Show me where on the table Anambra has a higher IGR than Osun in 2022

Ogun State alone has a higher IGR than the whole of the SE

I know it will take a lot of explaining to decipher that

You can compare your Osun and Anambra here

yoruboid:
It’s obvious you’re sitting in your cave and assuming nothing is going on else where

Oya use your projects to generate IGR like the states in the SW have now or isn’t that why projects are executed? To hasten development and grow the economy

Audio projects

You are still yening dust, instead of you to learn simple data interpretation.
All these deflecting has nothing to do with your initial fumble that osun generates more IGR than Anambra according to the table you presented.
I know your type, you would rather hid your ignorance than learn.

yoruboid:
It’s obvious you’re the illiterate here

It’s either you can’t read or you lack comprehension

Show me where on the table Anambra has a higher IGR than Osun in 2022

Ogun State alone has a higher IGR than the whole of the SE

I know it will take a lot of explaining to decipher that

So if there was no figure to compare Osun and Anambra in the first place. Where did you draw your initial conclusion?

yoruboid:
Even Osun had a higher IGR than Anambra

How much more Oyo, Ogun and Ondo

Go to school, you refused. Your interpretation of that table shows you are motor park tout.

DFAMEGUY11S:
is only 60x120 is and 60x60 is available

How much is the two?

Whether home or abroad, just work hard and stop being lazy.

DFAMEGUY11S:
this is Indian product not Spanish sir ,ask the person to make video of it and send to with make on in the back , and unless if is china the person product the person want to give, just try to ask him or she well

You are right, I think they are Indian tiles. But what is difference in terms of quality and long lasting. Have you noticed any problem with the Indian tiles?

fineboynl:
Corolla is also 5m now. Dollars and Fuel and present economy

Corolla should be more than that amount now.
The maths is simple.
You have to buy the car ( at least $1500 for 2008)
You have to ship it ($1500)
And you have to clear it in Nigeria ( #2M)
This is already more than #5M
It still has to be properly fixed and the importer would still have to make little profit

So for 2008, you might be looking at spending about #6 - 7M currently.

DFAMEGUY11S:
21500

Someone gave me these “Spanish” tiles for #11k. And they are 75 x 120.
Please educate me, what is the difference? Thanks.

DFAMEGUY11S:
60x60 Spanish 10900 while Nigeria 2800

Is 72 x 120 Spanish ( marble look) more expensive?

Back then, that area used to be the most peaceful side of town. Very laid back. It located at the very end of Calabar.
The creeks adjoining that Afoksng prison had very clean fresh stream with white clay bottom. Those days, the prisoners would come out in the open to plant and water the vegetables they planted by the side of the river. They had the most healthy looking water leaves and pumpkins.
Fisher men would come off the coast with real fresh fish, periwinkle, oysters and crabs and sold for cheap. People would go very early in morning to buy and fetch water.
Life was sweet, innocent and beautiful. The prisoners didn’t bother anyone . You even hardly see the guards with them.
The only thing then is that people go there at the creeks to do their little witchcraft at nights because it was quite and lonely. They competed for that space with smugglers coming or going to Equatorial Guinea and Malabo ( The same Malabo where the popular Unical hostel got it name)
Even with that, kids would still trek through the narrow path from there through Jebbs ( named after a former police IG in the 70s from CRS), to New Airport on the West or climb the hill through the timber shades to Ambo ( leadin to Olumba New Jerusalem Community) to Mbukpa..
That timber shade is where you find the best Mahogany woods.,
Bakeries would use the branches to make fire and heat their ovens. The firewood business was really booming around there.

This life is no longer what it used to be. Everything, people, environment, structures and institutions are all ruined.

Still your blessed Sunny global investment home of building materials & blessed Sam building materials enterprises.
I wish my customers they shall remain abundant blessed.thanks for patronizing.

This is really beautiful. What is the dimension and price?

She is right thou. Nigeria men are family oriented and can still bottle a lot of stuff.
Try some shiit as stuff with those other men and see anyhow.
They don’t give an efing trash about any damn damn son of a gun.

Adedward:
depends the sizes the tilers prepared for the toilets



The first and third pictures are, #170k
The second picture is, #220k

10mm tempered glass, thanks

Why is ready made imported one cheaper ?
And it has to be hanged sliding doors with frosted glasses

What is the cost of locally fabricated frameless ( 10mm frosted tampered glass) shower glass cubicles?

FreeStuffsNG:
Because Egypt is not stupid nah. The Egyptian President said it publicly that Isreal will take their lands if they move away. It's no brainer. This is not 1948 where the west alone can hijack the narratives.

How is that different from the Land Use Act of 1978 that was created right after 1969 to hijack the land and resources of the old Eastern region after the civil war?

iykofiias:
Na ogun go kee the Glazers

I am sure if Ogun ( whatever that is) meets the Glazers family one on one, Ogun go prostrate by force.

No one size fits all. Everyone needs to go with the legitimate strategy that favors them. What works for one might not be suitable for another. Just do what is best for you and your situation.
Take for instance, Regina Daniel found success through marriage.
Ngozie Iwuala is successful through education and professional career.
Madam Alakija through business
Doziena through political appointment
Emily of Emzor pharm through entrepreneurship

There is no one way to success. The key is to do something, just anything. Get involved !
