cluvin: The cost is too much. Let’s assume your foundation is 75ft or 23m long. Putting each room at 15ft (4.5m) x 15ft (4.5m) and the store at 20ft x (6m) You’ll only require 1,000 block for 1m high foundation. Unless the land is on a steep slope, or maybe the rooms are twice bigger, you can never use up 1200 block on that small project. Block is sold 230 - 250 in Ogun state which means the engineer gave you estimate for 2,000 blocks. That’s average of 400 - 500 blocks per room It’s not possible! At least not in Ogun state. Kindly request for a breakdown of the estimate. ________ To get answers to issues like this, kindly drop your questions on kobocity.com and our experts will provide you expert review of your estimates.

somehow: Not quite true. Read up. The old thread is still up there and ask your questions on that same thread. That project is 100% owner-managed with the owner acting as the General Contractor while a small part was outsourced to Brabus. Let’s not derail this thread by asking Brabus to provide same answer to the same issue to everyone who want to know more about the project. The plan of the person who brought the issue here is to derail the thread and shift attention away from himself ![]() We know the drills. He has failed to tell us what brabus did wrong on his project because there’s nothing he can lay claim on. Well let’s demystify this other lie once and for all. Don’t be in a rush. Just read the few posts on the project with an open mind and ask your questions. I don’t delete threads because of times like this. 1 Like 1 Share |

BrabusNG: Brabus My question is straight. I don't want to derail this thread. Before now, I have asked those dragging you up and down what exactly did you do to be called a fraud. One has posted something that looks precise, so my question is simple. What he posted, were you the one that executed it? I'm not on any side here but the side of Truth. Answering the questions here will put those coming to derail out of business once and for all. They are not derailing/posting on the old thread you are directing me to, it's here they are derailing/posting on. 10 Likes |

3strikes: Last time I'll respond to this rubbish. When I did my research I mentioned you and even showed when you were last seen (9th March) here https://www.nairaland.com/2550211/general-topic-thread-to-discuss-anything/2075#100216568. Since then, you never showed up with proof or link to the issues you had with him, even though evidence showed that you were online daily thereafter. It could be that you have no case but emotive bias; the same way you are falsely alleging every poster linked to KoboCity to be brabus. A poor job delivery doesn't necessarily means you were defrauded. While not holding brief for brabus, anything could have caused a floaded or sinking house. From poor job, to lack of knowledge of the terrain. Tell us exactly what happen. Pictures alone is not enough. Architectural drawing determines height of foundation. So if an architect for instance did a poor job of not finding out the level of possible flooding kevel in an area, the end result can be what you have overtime. There's an abandoned storey building in my village due to this reason. When I travel home, I'll post the pictures here too. Your picture alone does not tell the picture. Tell us what happened. Some of us that are rational woukd side you if you give us a compelling story. 1 Like 1 Share |

micgray100:Until some people get sense small.it is easy these days not to get duped,Do due diligence and ask questions, this has been repeated over 500 times, even that lawyer guy has a thread dedicated to this. We got good builders and very good builders here and very bad builders. We just have to be careful with whom we deal with.I am opportune to be the supplier and supervisor on my site I kid you not, I can just see how things can go terribly wrong if you are a contractor builder. My point here is simple, this issue is very old and well know, we all lashed at Brabus and moved on, However, this vendetta 2wards members here who dare to ask for this repeated talk to stop is unacceptable.I beginning to think someone somewhere is angry for a whole different reason. 2 Likes 1 Share |
