Mayor78: CO2 - colorless, odorless - will kill in minutes. By the other OP's logic, if something unseen can knock you off, it has to be juju. Intellectual laziness here. Anything that requires some critical analysis to explain any mysterious phenomenon has to be juju because we can't be half-assed to think through it. I'm curious how with the proliferation of handheld recording devices we haven't seen concrete (pun unintended) evidences that this thing exists. And make them no tell me about the mama in the village that confessed. One shot of haloperidol will snap her out of her psychosis. 2 Likes |

qdlvy: 1 chilled zobo for you. Most of these tales are handed over tales, which the originator forged, and it was spiced up along the way. Africans had juju and they were conquered by the white man... Anybody wey say im get juju.. let him stand infront of an armoured tank like the usa made Abrams M1A2 and take on a direct hit from it, or even a handheld rpg/bazooka..... Funny enough if jazz is as common as you guys say, i trust the americans/cia/mossad/kgb to take it from the naive africans study it, finetune and deploy the damned thing for warfare and espionage Other races are smashing the atom, putting man on the moon, intellectually lazy africans be yapping about juju...

Thenext: - 7.5 - 8% of the total contract sum should be fine regardless of his expertise and the complexity of the project. - Make installmental payments based on milestones achieved. - Retain 20% holdback for 30 days after completion of work. ______ The build can’t be more than a duplex. N4m supervision fee for a duplex ain’t too bad. The project can be completed within 90 days at average of 40k per day ![]() |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by n3xt(m): 5:44pm On Oct 27, 2020 |
GoodFaith: 45m build cannot be more than a 240m2 duplex in Nigeria as of today. I believe N4,000,000 ($10k) which translates to an average of 40k supervision fee per day (assuming the lifetime of the project is 90 days) is good enough for a professional and engineer wey sabi. Anything above that amount is way too much. |

Good evening my people, I will like to use a few minutes of our time to to review a product from one of us here. Michlins has sent me a complete door fabricated from imported steel plates and pipes, which he intends to mass produce for the use of members here who will need the doors. I collected the door after delays occasioned by my schedule, and had the door reviewed to ascertain its quality. This door is well constructed, the welding work is very good, the key locks very well, the alignment of the door and general fit is among the best in its class, I especially like the smooth finish, the colour combination he was able to achieve with the door, and I am sure he can change the colour design to any other colour the client or customer will need. The hinge of this door is good, and I know that this hinge is what is obtainable in most welding shops in Nigeria, but I advice that the hinge be changed in subsequent orders. I am looking forward to patronizing him in my next project, I look forward to a good deal from him and will report the results of our dealings here for all to see. Thanks all. 20 Likes 2 Shares

GoodFaith: Mama, you don’t seem to understand my point. You may need to go over the post from the beginning. As per the 40k, it’s just a breakdown to show the OP what N4,000,000 supervision fee will translate to if he’s paying daily. 2 Likes 1 Share |

micgray100: Although a lot of people use wooden doors inside the house, others want metal doors because of the issue of security. The doors will serve, but you need to ensure your bathroom is enclosed in a glass compartment, to stop water from splashing directly on the metal doors. The doors could be fabricated in many different sizes like the 6" and 9" frames, the width of the door could also be made to fit 3 feet or less doors, that's what some people enjoy in the local fabricated doors, freedom to adjust your door and find locals who can build exactly what you want to fit there (in case of people that are bigger for instance) ![]() Noise when opening and closing will be there, but not too much. The hinges needs to be oiled regularly to ensure a smooth slide and bang when closed. 3 Likes |

mufutau55: jabolo: omanzo02: My only advice to him is, to remain impeccably honest in all his dealings, the rest is easy. An honest man can make mistakes and be forgiven, but if your client or customers thinks you are out to scam them, it doesn't always end well. If he remains hardworking and honest, there's just too much business out there. Thank you my bosses. 11 Likes |

Good evening. The area of your room is 12.96 square metres. If you want to tile the room, the quantity of tiles you're gonna need is 15 square metres inclusive of skirting. If you're buying 400mm x 400mm porcelain tiles, there are 12 pieces in a carton, hence the area of 1 carton is 1.92 square metres. For 15 square metres (quantity needed for your room), you will need approximately 8 cartons. Cost per carton is around #2800. I hope you find this helpful. Shezkid01: 4 Likes |
