I disagree with your interpretations about Nigeria painters sir. You don’t expect miracles to happen when you give your job to a roadsides painters. To perform a professional skills. I have hundreds of my company super drawing and cutting job with brush and can’t find any stain on the floor after work. Let us appreciate and give works to professionals not roadsides jobs seekers all in the name of cutting costs.

Are you trying to impress customers with these painting pictures?

Thanks.

A good builder/engineer creates setbacks in the absence of non.....or probably those who decided to create their own setback are probably just doing what is not acceptable.

Okayyy.. Oga Bixton..

So it's discretion you're talking about and not a "rule" like you said previously. Okay.

Building setbacks are 100% compulsory for several reasons. That's not what we're talking about here. It's gate house.

The only benefit I see there is the cost savings. The half fence does exactly what they sought to achieve with joining the house to the fence and the peep hole...it's an overkill for me.

The half-fence means other people can see the inside of your building. This peep-hole to the street means you're at an advantage.

PIC: The pictures I'm attaching (not Internet pictures o..) were taken about 10 minutes ago..

Good afternoon my people.. The issue of theft in most of our sites these days is becoming alarming. We have a project in Abuja and the installation of first fix started last year August. The second fix was completed early December,. We are meant to start the final stage yesterday but on getting to site all cables were stolen including the load cables to the distribution .

Now who is responsible for this act? After we completed the second fix which is the cabling in early December 2021, POP contractors came and left, Tiler came and left, also the Aluminium guys also came and left . But my concern is that the builder couldn't fish out who could have done this .. Cables of about 2million naira got stolen on site and we have builder supervising the project regularly on site.

My concern is that all the cables removed would be sold as scrap maximum 30k because there was no straight l length in those cables ..

Are we going to blame government for this because of lack of job(an idle hand is a devil workshop )

My client said the it can't be tiler and POP guys because they are Togolese
The Aluminium contactor is a Nigerian and he stays more than POP and tilers on site. Who are we going to hold responsible for this act.

We got to Abuja yesterday hoping that the final fix will be completed in the next 8days.


Is there a gateman on site that's always there 24/7?

I personally don't think it's the tiler or aluminium guy.

Your workers have been the first suspect if not that you stay very far away.

These cable thieves are just demons.

Also a CCTV that is not monitored or cannot be monitored remotely is not good enough.

Taking it further, where are recordings stored? on site or in the cloud?

Some thieves will take away your CCTV device

It’s seems you’re expat in this area, what brand of version of the IP cctv will you recommend for lay man like me in Nigeria situation of no light no strong internet connection finally security of network.

I think this is still OK... Just like me now, my build indoor has been plastered but left the outdoor area letf unplaster... Till total finishing... Because I felt plastering the outdoor will mk d build flashy unlike when not plaster... I intend doing all other works indoors... Such as tiling, fitting toilets and kitchen wear, buy the cable but keep it...

Suggestion/advice is highly welcome on this plan if mine. Thanks..
cost wide, I think its a very bad Idea to plaster the internal and leave the externals, as that will now for m a new job when you price it for it to be done. I did both inside and outside on mine when I did mine. lock the protector gate keys are in my pocket, when I return again I shall start from where I end, dnt want to hear stories that touch. When I eventually start wiring we shall do it section by section and monitored make we see the magic them wan do, I recon these wires are stollen i n broad day light and not by traditional thieves but workmen

There are alot of impractical advice online.. It's not possible that cement costs 2750 from factory and rituals at 4000 naira..

I know FinPaul Akinlaja. He's a financial analyst/ investment advisor. Some of his analysis are spot on.

Some people drop nuggets to appear clever and smart. They even lure you into some investments and one suffers loses at the end.

I am not exactly sure what you are trying to say...sir read between the lines...the first part carries the weight....like I noted before...it is right advice probably wrong numbers right now...He got the numbers based on article that was written in February see link below .

https://nigerianprice.com/dangote-cement-price-today/

I mentioned factors like prices indices; price index (PI) is a measure of how prices change over a period of time, or in other words, it is a way to measure inflation.


Out of curiosity how do you Dr kalu ?

If you have set aside a huge budget only to invest it on your rooftop, then go ahead and check out a stone coated steel roof. Available in various styles and colors, this roofing solution will help you save a lot on your electricity bill as it keeps the interiors cool. Although stone-coated steel roofing cost is a bit higher than other roofing systems, you won’t regret it.
