In my opinion this is why Nigeria is backwards. We keep cuddling criminals.

He's lucky so far that it's only online banter that's happening.

You should look up the penalties for false building approval for a commercial building on the USA. It included jail term.

The people he ripped off are diasporans so they have a certain expectation.

Only the person who wears the shoe knows where it pinches. Let them vent appropriately as long as it's within the TOS of this site.

This cuddling is what he's used to over the years and what he expects and why the fraud continues to perpetuate.

I and others are making sure those days are over for him one here, for now.

Agreement?

Oh you mean the kobo kobo one that Mavverick has to practically beg for a mere N10k payment every week?

That agreement?

Anyways my point has been made on this before, I would have gotten a court order and sold that Mack truck of his to satisfy the judgement.

I don't want to make this about Egun Anigilaje.

Carry on folks.

I must be honest, some of us aren't helping issues here and all we can do is to attack and attack but we have no impact to make financially.

At least he is paying it bit by bit as agreed by him and oga mervverick. Should I copy links from business section and show how ppl lose hundreds of thousands constantly without refund?

Same way I adviced Oga qc1 to deal with brabus offline so he can come to the site to fix the errors but he chooses to listen to "ariwo oja" and these noises won't add a damn to his wallet cos everybody have what they are using their money for. Yes! Ppl will condemne him to make his clients angry but nobody will support u financially here to clean up the mess.

Oga 3strikes, assuming your building he (brabus) built for u collapse (God4bid) what will u say o? Take him to nta or AIT? Or start looking for him unclad ? grin I read where u said u have to forgive him when u saw the house with your two eyes so is he that worst?

Please let's stop the condemn blame game and move on.

Anybody that make u sad today can make u smile tomorrow.

Same way my co workers condemned my boss to be a wicked man when I was first employed to his company. I didn't take it from them becos the man was good to me till date and ii am still looking for the wickedness in him. They knew what the man doesn't like and keep on doing it and u want him to laff with u?

Alhaji Kowope. Since you are receiving a lot of response for your comment above then I will pretend I didn't see it....Cos they've said it all... but let us continue to say no to Hypocrisy. It stinks to high heaven.........I hope we still cool tho ? grin

Openable Burglar Proof

I'm seriously working on designing an openable burglar proof with internal locks using stainless steel nets just like slidable window nets.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are range which cannot be easily cut with scissors or pliers. I'm actually looking at using Diamond Mesh (good design). There are different range in the market.

Brabus,
I am with you on this quest.

I think the first thing to do, when trying to solve a problem, is to IDENTIFY the problem.

What are we trying to achieve? OBJECTIVE

After that, the next question will be[b] HOW[/b] can we achieve the objective? This is the SOLUTION spectrum

Followed by what is the most ECONOMICAL means of achieving the objective

Finally, we consider the FIT-FOR-PURPOSE test (SAFETY of Occupants), of the proffered solution, in conjunction with the "economics" of the cost, as above

We all agree we are trying to keep out unwanted visitors who chose to pass through the window, instead of using the approved doorway.



We also agreed that we are trying to use[b] PHYSICAL HINDRANCES[/b] placed on the window, to prevent such illegal entry.
Now, such hindrances is is what you are proffering. Other options are Iron/Steel Grills on the window.

So, l ask Is using Diamond Mesh :economical (cost-wise), to using ordinary stainless steel?
Since we are not trying to prevent the entry of mosquitoes (Netting), just a few strong rods should do the job.

If we consider the safety aspect, which l think this is all about, attention should be focused on a mechanism that allows you to remove the hindrance (Burglary-Proof Iron Bars), when needed to do so, while preventing others from being able to do so.

I have been thinking: if we make a window of iron Rods (Square-shaped, size of the window), let it have hinges so it can open inwards and then attach a lock mechanism to it such that it can be opened within two seconds in an emergency.

An alternative to the iron bar is that criss-cross, chain-like iron used on doors (like the Trelis Doors), with the same lock mechanism described above, attached to it
.

The area l still cant figure-out is the Lock Mechanism, that can fulfil that purpose.


*Padlocks wont do (Difficult to open in an emergency like fire)

* The common window Latch wont do because the thief can also break the glass window and lift up the latch

*Some Latched windows have keys on the Latch but that will take us back to the Padlock scenario which is not good in dire emergencies.

*Unbreakable glass is expensive and therefore not worth the 'economics'


Do you have any idea on can work?

It is very very irritating when you come to think about it, of all the losses that I have had to write off.

Stolen materials.
Bad job that requires fixing.
Materials paid for but never delivered.
Services paid for but never delivered.


So when I look at the comments from Agarawu, no disrespect but it really STINKS !!
If the system in nija works, brabus/Bosun would be out of business years ago.

Do you mean I did wrong restoring normalcy to your site when Omo oniles are distrurbing everyday?

Can you explain what happened and who invited the police to your site?

Meanwhile, those officers are my loyal junior brothers. Those that know will only smile at your stupidity.

You want their names and childhood photographs that we took together

The popular Nuru Bakare of Ogombo 07089844110 (the Omo Onile) that I used the mopo boys to stop can even attest to this.

You mean column ( vertical beam), the foundation column should project out of the dpc not less than 650mm. The upper column bar should be extended to the surface of the damp proof course.

Simple Prayer for you and me! Just say amen just as you asked others to say amen.


May our lives, the lives of our families, our kiddies, our unborn generations and all that lives and doesn't live that God gave us be ran the same way we both treated each other on your project.
May God reward us both a billion fold the same way we dealt with each other (good or bad)

[size=30pt]Amen!!![/size] Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

I am bold to say it over and over. Can you?
