One of the strongest women I know is my mother.
She is a 1990 graduate of Chemical Engineering from the prestigious Ahmadu Bello University.
After university, she went into chemical engineering and worked in the cement industry.
Then, almost 20 years ago, something completely unexpected happened.
My parents had built a house and contracted a metal fabricator to make the external doors.
The men kept postponing. And postponing. And postponing.
Eventually, my mum got so frustrated that she went to their workshop herself.
She looked at what they were doing for a while and, with the confidence of an engineer who had spent years around technical work, basically came to the conclusion:
“There’s really nothing special about what these people are doing.”
😂
That frustration became an idea.
And that idea became Metfabrique Limited.
What started in Benue almost 20 years ago is now a metal fabrication business domiciled here in Abuja.
About two years after starting the business, my mum eventually resigned from her engineering job and went into Metfabrique full-time.
Has it been easy?
Absolutely not.
But my mum is one of those people who will look at a problem and start thinking about how to solve it instead of sitting around waiting for someone else to do it.
And the thing that amazes me most is that she genuinely LOVES this work.
She has spent years building, supervising, solving problems, learning, improving and serving thousands of families, individuals and businesses.
Whenever I think about all the things that can possibly hold me back as a woman, I look at my mother.
She didn’t let them hold her back.
So yes, this post is partly me bragging about my mum. 😂
But it is also me asking X to do what X does best.
Please blow this business up for me.
If you have a metal fabrication project anywhere in Abuja, Metfabrique Limited can handle it.
Gates.
Overhead tank structures.
Metal doors.
Railings.
Indoor metal furniture/upholstery.
Custom metal works.
And other fabrication projects.
The company doesn’t just have integrity.
It has capacity.
And after almost two decades in the business, they know what they’re doing.
If you know someone building a house, renovating one, managing a facility, running a business or simply looking for a reliable metal fabricator in Abuja, please send this post to them.

You never know who in your timeline is currently looking for exactly what my mum has spent almost 20 years learning how to do.
And Mum, if you’re reading this:
I hope this app does what I think it can do. ❤️

Bonjour à tous. Je m’appelle Albert Richard suis à la recherche de ce petit garçon (né en 25 juillet 2001 à Thies au Sénégal) qui est sur la photo qui s’appelle Jean Pierre Emile. C’est mon petit frère et j’ai beaucoup hésité avant d’écrire ici.
Il a été donné en adoption en 2002 au couple français sur la photo ( Claude et Veronique) qui vivait au temps vers Lyon. En effet , la mère ( Emilie) est décédé au lendemain de la naissance de mon petit frère, je devais avoir 5 ans. mon oncle qui était chef de maison avait donné le bébé (dont ma tante s’occupait déjà depuis Dakar) à ce couple qui se trouvait être ses amis car ils ne pouvaient pas avoir d’enfants.
ils sont revenus au pays un jour nous voir quand le petit avait 4 ans et depuis lors on ne le voit plus, ni de nouvelles de lui ni de sa famille adoptive.
j’ai grandi avec cette envie et cette promesse de retrouver mon petit garçon car était le seul lien avec la daronne. J’ai demandé a mon oncle et j’ai insisté à plusieurs reprises mais il me fait savoir qu’il n’a plus de nouvelles d’eux , tout ce temps je demandais aussi et je cherchais des informations Les seules que j’ai réussies à trouver de lui durant ces années sont les photos suivantes..
Je veux juste revoir mon petit frère pas forcément faire partie de sa vie, ni de le séparer de sa famille adoptive mais ce manque est plus fort que moi et je demande à cette famille de me laisser revoir mon frère qui doit avoir 26 ans donc toute personne qui pourrait m’aider sera la bienvenue. Je ne sais pas si j’ai le droit ou pas d’écrire ici pour en parler ou de faire sa recherche mais c’est une nécessité pour moi et je le fais de manière noble et purement amicale.
Je m’excuse auprès de tous vraiment et j’espère trouver des pistes.
cordialement,
If you want to do IVF or you want to remove Fibroid but you don’t have money. Just go to the nearest Access bank in your area and reach the customer service. All you need is just letter from the Hospital and the invoice from the hospital.

You open your fridge to drink cold water, and you take a sip. But instead of water, it tastes like the Egusi soup you cooked three days ago?
Why?
You think it’s just the fridge smelling?
My dear, it’s not o. In fact, it’s a warning sign.
If I had to give anyone advice about how to go about things, here’s what I’d say:
Chill out.
Every successful career I’ve ever known was filled with long periods of meandering, months or even years when no one knew what would happen next.
Look at me: I started as a geology major turned failed realtor.
Like @JeffBezos, I didn’t start Netflix until I was 38. And I didn’t get into tech until I was around 33.
Good.
Let’s say you transfer N10,000 from your bank to another bank.
The bank charges you N50 for that service (helping you to move money from one to another). Remember your contract with them is to help you keep the money. Helping you to keep the money is one service, helping to transfer it elsewhere is a different service.
Anytime you transfer, they charge N50. This is not a tax matter, it is a bank matter. They are charging you for providing money transfer service to you.
Now, here is how tax comes in: That N50 transfer charg means one party has made money (bank) and one party has enjoyed a service and paid for it (customer).
Value has been added to you by the bank by making life easy for you (money moved from one bank to another without you having to carry Ghana-Must-Go cash on your head and move money from one bank to another) and you have parted with N50 expense for that.
VAT is Value Added Tax on that value of N50 you paid for. 7.5% of N50 is N3.75. Banks have an obligation by law to also deduct that N3.75 from your bank account and remit to government on your behalf.
In short:
- N50 goes to bank as charge
- N3.75 goes to government as VAT on that charge.
