Badgers14:They have gone very far ahead technologically, every move is always about more job creation for more welders, builders, technicians, transportation, materials dealers etc, that's why there's job after school and school dropout alike. Every year the always find ways to expand to accommodate more people.

earthrealm: None of these is a problem. As a matter of fact, I can give 100% money back guarantee on motorized gate operators. I’ve never had to top even the gear oil in 9 years and the only time I had to replace its battery was when we stopped using it for about 4 years. The 650VA battery equipped with the operator will power the gate for more than 48 hours. 1 Like 1 Share |

omanzo02: These are common practices in the west....may not be feasible for small naija builders...additional cost of hiring cranes or lifts ...celsa steel very popular in Scandinavian region https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WT5ydI1pBXA

dongc:There are daily lift or crane hire if you want to move heavy materials up, I think the use of steel mat or steel net for concrete or decking work is feasible for small builders and could save them time. Materials dealers need embrace new system of building procedures to make it a common practice in Nigeria. |

omanzo02: Wheew! My niece and nephews do go out of state for robotics competition.. this kids are 12 -14 years old, their school even traveled to Japan to compete. I was quite mesmerized when I attended one of their events.. I couldn't believe little kids that young could put things like that together... But in 9ja a final year student or even graduate student could put two pans together with a wheel barrow tire and aye yeah!! They built a car ![]() Our government are nose deep in oil.. politicians empower youths with goats, sewing machine and Keke napep. O laud have mercy on us! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Badgers14: That Old Nigeria is long gone. There are lots of robotics lab, tech hubs and incubators in Nigeria as of today. Eg: Sillicon Valley - Nigeria Economic Development (SVNED Inc) https://www.svned.com Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Nigeria (RAIN) in Ibadan. CC-Hub and many others. Osinbajo is pushing/championing that front. We launched his tech hub about 2 years ago in Ibadan. The government is diversifying the economy already. It’s just that we have a president that do not understand what’s going on. I’m confident there’s hope for Nigeria. 1 Like 2 Shares |

n3xt: This has been giving us issues for days now.. there is a plan for a commercial building, where atleast 10-15 machines will consume between 500kw-4000kw alongside some yet to be determined units of ACs. The owners are thinking of buying two diesel gens (150kva), instead of using the national grid. National grid can be expensive/irregular and machines will.need to run for atleast 10 hours daily. Pls advice |

erico2k2: That’s why they put them in incubation hubs/centers where there’s unlimited access to the bolded above and good funding. We can’t wait any longer so the focus is more on the Gen-Z right now.

Greenarrow01: Energy consumption awareness is key to reduce your energy costs and improve energy efficiency on your machines and electrical appliances. The meter is connected directly to you transformer installation reading your exact consumption. It’s not an energy reducing device. So my advice is to use alternative power supply for energy hungry machines in your property. I always use generator for my washing and pumping machine and also use it to run the Air Condition units only at night. I hardly spend 5k - 6k in 2 months on energy consumption. Check https://www.ikejaelectric.com/energy-consumption-domestic-appliances/ _______ I once lived in a commercial building in Lagos and the landlord told me “Bro your electricity bill is 10,000 per month. I always pay 50,000 every month to Eko Distribution blah blah...” I told him to install a meter in my flat and leave me to handle my energy consumption.

EgunMogaji2: I went the instant water heater (Ariston Pronto Neo) way jejely. Traditional water heaters take time to reach preferred temperatures, thus wasting energy. I’ve not explored the option of a solar water heater though but I’ve heard about DC water heaters. _______ Some of our people are the reason why diasporas keep abusing us ![]() All these alternative options are out there but they’ll only be here to advertise and not to share knowledge. Instant and Tankless water heaters have been here for over decade and we don’t get to hear much about them. 3 Likes 1 Share |
