sonnie10: You can pay what your conscience dictates But Simple economics is the reason . Don’t ever compare wages in a 20 plus trillion economy to one of about 400 billion . It’s for that same reason every job in the usa or much of the west pays multiple times better than same category of jobs in nija , maybe 20 to 30 times I see a lot of people display this ignorance , including professionals when they start comparing there wages to counterparts in the west How do you compare wages in an economy of 60k dollars gdp par Capita to that of nigeria at 2k dollars , even china wages are much lower than usa A cleaner in the usa will earn more , same with teacher , police and every other job , There is only one abnormally in nija to this rule for obvious reasons .

somehow: Sir, I hereby seek your permission to go 'diabolical' on "Mr. Bosun Davies Shoyoye", alias n3xt. I got all his personal information even up to his favorite undies. He's fortified but, fortification pass fortification. You seem like the type to let sleeping dog lie which is exactly why I'm offering to step in. Don't bother about taking any legal action, dem deities go take care of am. I can promise you, you'll get 100% of your refund in a matter of days. He'll be the one begging you to collect your refund. Once you give me the go ahead, you'll be back here to thank the spirits of Ojuelegba! This, I promise! 1 Like |

Itsrm: Once you understand the alternate dimension of your existence, you'll better understand the chakras and laws guiding nature. I don't just do this for selfish gains... it's to fulfil nature's calling. All I need is for the aggrieved gentle man, "Somehow" to give me a go ahead.

BrickDevo:Oga Sir, No No!!. 30 tons should be 30 tons anywhere, anytime. The issue is this, complete 30 tons can only be delivered by a trailer, most atimes, accessibility to sites is usually an issue considering turning radius and the strength of the soil to be able to allow a trailer to deliver. So what those vendors do is they promise you 30tons and end up coming with 25-27 tons knowing fully well that a trailer can't access your site. So they come with a double axle truck. That way they make extra profit. If you really want to know about this, request for waybill before they offload the material at your site. The waybill usually contains information like Quantity of material in tons or kg Size/grade of material Number plate of the vehicle Time of departure from the company. Note: this is if you are buying direct from the company. |

Kudos on your project. At the bolded, I am interested in knowing why you said the BOQ prepared wasn't useful. Was it that the amount budgeted for each critical item was inadequate or excessive? Was it the material or labour estimation that was inaccurate? I might be helpful. Ndyoo: |

rmx:Brother, there is no need to start this debate. You just mentioned the reason why most low paying manufacturing jobs move to China, low wage with man power state of the art infrastructure. Please help me ask the brother, let's assume he makes $180,000 per year, out of that amount after paying his mortgage, car insurance, utility bills, health insurance, gas per weekly, food and all unforeseen bills, like parking tickets, or even traffic moving velation. I purposely don't include income tax which an average of 18% of your take home weekly or by weekly. How much did he take home at the end of the year? Egun is here with many living wetness. I laugh in Spanish, I don't even what to talk of fuel that raise form $45 per week to $68x4 in my state. Again how many people even make that much? Average USA median household income as of 2019 is 68,703 which many of these families in many states in USA qualified for government assistance. These numbers represent 70% of Americans. I forgot to mention that the federal law require you to pay 30% of your income as your annual rent. Please tell me how much is left after all those deductions? I rest my case. 1 Like |

kopell:The point you raise is tangential to what the issue at hand is about. The point being discussed here is fair labour or fair trade as regards to those with more resources ( countries, individuals, cooperations, entities) dealing with others in those regions with less resources and capital. This is the context of the discussion. I am not interested in comparing living standards between myself in the US with those in Nigeria. Such discussion is seen as bragging in this forum. There is a reason why someone would not want to buy coffee from a particular brand, due to how much the company pays for the coffe beans from poor farmers There are people who would never wear a particular brand of cloth or shoes due to how much the company pays its poor factory workers overseas . Works of organization like international Fairtrade is to ensure that globally, people are paid fair amount for their products because there is disparities in begaining power between the rich and poor. This is comparable to the rich clients/ poor laborers relationship in Nigeria. Everything is not about economics. We grow by lifting others. And except you own a boot, you cannot pull yourself up by the bootstraps. Anyone who conceives the thought of free labor from poor laborers and artisans is sick in the mind.

sonnie10:The extra money will only empower majority of them to stake more in gambling (baba ijebu), buy more beer and spend more on ladies. It's what I experienced when I decided to be paying everyone working in my site 1k per day, for feeding. Many of them are not really what we perceive them to be. 3 Likes |
