it has to be before to make the electrician work easier and without damaging the ceiling
Ok. Thanks

coldcandy:
For POP ceilings, always do wiring before pop work. Else the electrician will damage the pop when he climbs on the ceiling
Oh! Ok. Thanks

gregyboy:
The use of oba instead of ooni or sir allocated by the British makes me know that yorubas borrowed the title oba from benins




Yoeubas borrowed the word oba from binis
What does the word oba mean in bini language. King i know is Ogie.
Why is the Oba refered to omon'oba

TAO11:
Here we deal with evidence. grin

It is an unhidden fact that Itsekiri is a Yoruba sub-group.

Says who? shocked Well, says the Itsekiris themselves. smiley

(1) Quoting from the eyewitness account of Captain H. L. Gallwey’s “Journeys in the Benin Country”:

Let me now refer briefly to the tribes that people this part of the world. First we come to the Jakris, who are connected in race and language with the Yoruba people, extending from the Mahin country on the west to the Forcados on the East, and inland about as far as Sapele.

~ H. L. Gallwey, “Journeys in the Benin Country, West Africa,” The Geographical Journal, Vol. 1, No. 2 (Feb., 1893), p.127.


(2) Quoting from H. Ling Roth’s (1903) report from eyewitnesses of the late 1800s:

In this respect, however, the officials agree with the tradition of the people at Warri, the Jekries, who claim to come from the west.

~ H. Ling Roth, Great Benin: Its Customs, Arts and Horrors, (1903), pp.8-9.



In sum, the minority children of insecurity and inferiority complex (aka the Binis) should rest and seek other life aspirations.

Cheers! kiss

Cc: soonest
Thanks for the reference. I know for sure Itsekiri is of Yoruba ancestry. Their language leads credence to that; but their ruling family is another kettle of fish. Ogiame is a bini word. Oba of Benin has always played roles in itsekiri royal house. History has it that one of Bini princes became the first Olu. I wouldn't mind more education if you have more information as regards this

b4bola:
Even your oba of Benin can't refute that.
Edo people are from Ile Ife.
I think Edos aren't Yorubas but their ruling house is obviously of Yoruba ancestry.
The use of Oba instead of Ogiso.
The Oba gets to fight a Bini family like that in a mock fight to ascend the throne
And many other pointers to show the ruling is likely to be of Yoruba origin
CultureRe: Warri Succession Crisis: Oba Of Benin Wades In, Meets Ologbotsere by soonest(f): 5:37pm On Apr 17, 2021
Methinks, Itsekiris are more yoruba than binis but their ruling house is of bini ancestry.

He’s obviously quoting for a precast parapet. A lot of homeowners have run into problems because we are looking for a builder/engineer who can speak Queens English.

I think I understand what he’s trying to do and how to handle such worker if he’s working for me. I won’t be looking for ways to only cut cost but a way to get the best out of him.
Ok pardon me please. I had my mind on in situ

now this is exactly the reason I spoke with the alumaco guy. When I went to site, they were still building the carcass and no plastering has been done. I only asked him to help me with his measurements since he's the last person there to save me some time. In a sane world, it's not a big ask to make from a fellow artisan but I guess we live in a crazy world.


Please everyone, I didn't work so hard,see me called a thief and dragged here only to ruin it over window burglaries.

Stay away from Rabiu Kehinde Adeniyi a.k.a Mountmoriah . He is a Criminal and Fraudster. I paid him #1, 369, 750 to supply me Roman stone coated roofing sheets and accessories. I haven't heard of him till now. All his lines switched off. I sent the payment to his GTB account number 0007312835. I trusted him based on the fact that he delivered wood to my site and I paid on delivery for the wood. After gaining my trust, he took measurements of my roof and opined to supply me the roofing sheets. I transferred to him for 48 hours now and haven't received the materials. I spoke with him this morning and he said they were on their way to Ibadan currently at Guru maharaji. Told him to snap the himself with the vehicle conveying the materials to my site since 10 am, he went off immediately and have been off since. I later called, him two lines switched off.
Please try and calm down abit. He should have found a way to communicate but anything could be the problem. Hoping he calls you tomorrow and delivers your sheets.
