Bros welldone on this project....

However, let me state that your not casting the german floor (ground floor bed) before continuing with the blockwork in superstructure will cause issues in the building later. These issues include:
- cracks between the floor & the walls of the rooms due to differential settlement between floor and walls
- influx of termites and other insects into the building due to the cracks
- cracks in the walls as a result of differential settlement of the walls
- rising dampness through the cracks created by the differential settlement

Note that casting the german floor before continuing the superstructural blockwork is STANDARD in construction; you may confirm from any qualified and registered construction professional (architect, quantity surveyor, engineer, builder).

However, you have already gone beyond the stage of remedy, so wishing you all the best.
we casted it, i only explained saying i wasnt around when it was done... Thank you

German flooring is completed,
Blocks available and molded by ourself= 3,200 for now as we targeted and estimated around 4,000 blocks to the beam/decking level excluding the recent foundation blocks already used.
Molder took 700 per one bag which produced 25 blocks per bag. (30 might have been used but for a stronger block, we choosed 25/bag)

Normally 800 per bag as normal standard price but ours was by a closely related contact.


From The below photo, we already continued with block works.

We actually wanted to erect only pillars completely to the decking level before block work but we thought it was going to procure more expenses as we might not need to buy and spend more on woods for boarding.

So we took the alternative of continuing block work.

From this point. We took our time getting two trailer load of granite valued at 180k per trailer load amounting to 360k.

I wasnt around for the sand-filling process but it took 30 bush loading trailer loads of sharp white sand.

workmanship for filling the sand into it was at 1,500 per 1 load = 30*1,500 = 45k

DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE OTHER EXPENSIS FROM THE BEGINNING, ALL RECORDS OF THE COMPLETE PROCESSES ARE KEPT ACCURATELY.

The governor of Bayelsa also seems to be from Ogun state.

Has Mr Churchill ever visited the state before now? Just curious.

That aside, there seems to be widespread tracing of roots these days (eg Ooni's new wife from Benin who they said is from Ife).

In addition, Mr Churchill's wife said he is Obasanjo's son, so he is actually Ogun on his dad's side?

This is rather confusing can anyone clarify.

Welcome home Mr Churchill. Hope you enjoy your stay.

Where is his mum from btw, exactly.
why cant you people just appreciate something good for once and forget about where he is from or not?? Why
