Crime / Re: Two To Die By Hanging For Stealing N105,000, Phones, Others In Ekiti by immortalcrown(m): 6:40pm
Capital punishment for lesser crimes, pardon for bigger crimes. That is Nigeria for you.

No crime is justifiable. I am not defending these thieves. But do these boys deserve to be killed? If Boko members can be rehabilitated and tagged repentant, why not rehabilitate these boys?

But if you think these boys deserve death, why can't governors, senators and apprehended Boko members that commit grievious crimes be treated this same way?

Travel / Re: Pls I Need Reliable Travel Agent That Can Help With Canada Working Permit by franchasofficia: 6:39pm
Afuzeman:
My very good childhood friend is now based in Canada and he went there without using any single agent. Though he went through the study route for a masters program, it wasn't a difficult process at all as the school assisted all the way immediately they gave him admission. He only had to make part payment for fees directly to the school and then he got all the documents required for visa and found someone to act as his sponsor just to show their bank statement with good cash inflow. As i write this its now about 3 years he has been there working as he is done with the masters program since. I have the link to the school but no funds yet so I'm hustling to raise money to follow exactly same process to relocate to Canada
Your friend was one of the early birds, currently things have changed so bad.


Canada now issue recommendation letter after you get admission offer and have paid your first tuition deposit. The province where the school is located in Canada must issue you a recommendation letter which you must attach to your student visa application. And the recommendation letter take long and not also a guarantee that you will be issued a student visa after paying initial tuition deposit.


And with review in Canada living expenses, plus the naira fall due to Tinubu thoughtless policies, the minimum amount required from you as POF is between 50million to 65million naira for you to stand a chance of getting a student visa.


It doesn't end there. Canada no longer issue after study permit except for PhD students.

There are a whole lot of changes now that have made it difficult and less promising to relocate to Canada via the study route.


Same changes happened in European schools and even UK.

2 smart tortoise..

Slot buyers are afraid of loosing their funds hence they demand payment after documentation or resumption. This decision came to their mind as a result from experience or lesson from others.

Slots traders are also afraid of loosing their money with the fear that when you got the job, you might not pick calls and there’s nothing they can do because it’s a fed government work, hence they demand upfront payment before commencement of processes of securing your APL for you at least to show capability’ or seriousness from the part of beneficiaries. This decision came to mind as a result of either previous experience or lesson from others too. Lol

Slots traders and buyers are going through a lot and both are claiming smart and afraid at same time. Nobody wan loose. No trust at all from both parties. Una dey try sha.

The should use an escrow if they both meant well.

Phones / Itel RS4 Review - Gaming Phone Or Unnecessary Hype by atheistandproud(m): 6:38pm
The Itel RS4 is a smartphone from the stables of Chinese smartphone makers, Itel. It was announced and released in April of 2024. It is being marketed as Itel's first Gaming Smartphone.

Itel is well known for releasing low end phones and this is a tag that it has been trying to shake off recently. Having released a slew of lower midrange phones, Itel seems to be ready to make the step up to the big time.

No phone typifies this commitment more than the Itel RS4. It has got the hype, the looks and the marketing, but does it have the substance to go with the bluster? That's what we're going to be reviewing right now.

Specs of the Itel RS4
The key specifications of the Itel RS4 are:

Body: Plastic frame and back, rounded edges, 198g
SoC: MediaTek Helio G99 Ultimate
GPU: ARM Mali G57 MC2
Software: Itel OS 13 based on Android 13
Benchmarks: AnTuTu - 416,194
RAM: LPDDR4X, (8GB/12GB)
Storage: UFS 2.1 (128GB/256GB)
Display: 6.56” 720p IPS-LCD, 120Hz
Camera (Rear): 50MP main, 1080p@30fps
Selfie: 8MP
Battery: 5,000mAh, 45W fast charge
Connectivity: 4G, WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.2, USB-C (2.0) port, 3.5mm audio in/out, side-mounted Fingerprint reader

Performance and Gaming

The Itel RS4 comes equipped with a MediaTek Helio G99 Ultimate SoC which is a very decent performer. This SoC is a lower mid-range SoC which will handle HD games like Call of Duty Mobile, Player Unknown Battlegrounds Mobile (PUBG), eFootball 2024 Mobile, Free fire etc. It could struggle with triple A titles like Warzone Mobile, Grid Auto Sports, Fortnite etc. and could only tackle these at low settings. It can also handle emulation up to PS2 (AetherSX2 and NetherSX2) as well.

Beyond gaming, it would breeze through most apps and tasks that are native to Android and would rarely lag or stutter.

Software

This device runs on Itel OS 13 which is based on Android 13. It boasts features such as GPT AI assistant, magic sky-change mode etc.

RAM and Storage

The Itel RS4 is armed with 8GB or 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM. Whilst this configuration is decent, most modern phones use LPDDR5 RAM which is faster and more efficient for handling games. For storage, there is UFS 2.2 storage on board for taking care of storage needs.

Cameras and Video

The main camera on the Itel RS4 is a 50MP snapper which shoots very decent photos and videos in good lighting. For selfies, there's a 8MP cameras in front. It will struggle in low light situations such as in a dark room or in the evenings without a prominent light source. Using the flash will only serve to blow the highlights out of proportion and potentially ruin the image.

Display

The display on this one is a let down as it only has a resolution of 720p (HD+) on a large screen estate of 6.56”. To compensate, the display compensates by offering support for a refresh rate of up to 120Hz.

Connectivity

This is a 4G LTE only device in the era of 5G. This immediately puts it at a disadvantage against other gaming centric devices that supports 5G. It also supports Bluetooth 5.2, WiFi 5, USB-C port (USB v2.0), NFC and 3.5mm Audio jack for audio in and out.

Battery

This device is powered by a 5,000mAh battery and supports an impressive 45W fast charge. Itel claims that this fast charge can do 0-80% in 30 mins.


Author’s Score card for the Itel RS4

Review Score: 5/10

The Itel RS4 offers gaming on a budget for gamers to play their favorite android titles as well as emulated games from retro consoles.

Positives:
45W Fast Charge for quick top ups
Good looking aesthetics and design
Decent performance from the Helio G99 Ultimate

Negatives:
Performance falls behind those of proper gaming phones
Lacks 5G support
Lacks a cooling system of any sort

Conclusion
The Itel RS4 is a step in the right direction but I think that it is being oversold. It is a very decent lower mid-range phone with a decent amount of RAM/storage, very good fast charge and that’s about it. Most modern gaming phones have better upper midrange SoCs, 5G, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1, passive and/or active cooling systems, trigger buttons and other bells and whistles which the Itel RS4 sorely lacks.

It however would serve as a decent cost effective option for Android gaming on a budget and as a daily driver but do not expect much more than that.

Crime / Two To Die By Hanging For Stealing N105,000, Phones, Others In Ekiti by okrote4real: 6:38pm
An Ekiti State High Court, Ado Ekiti division has sentenced two persons, Benjamin Joseph (32), and Stephen Orban (25), to death by hanging for robbing two persons of cash and valuable items.

The convicts were arraigned on December 30, 2022, on a four-count charge bordering on conspiracy and armed robbery.

The charge read, “On 16th August 2022 along Iluomoba Road, Aisegba Ekiti did conspire to commit a felony, to wit; armed robbery.

“As at the time of the robbery, they were armed with locally made guns, knives, and cutlasses and did rob Daramola Christiana and Ajayi Alaba of their belongings such as phones, power bank, creams, drugs, ATM Cards, and N105,000 cash among others.
“The offences are contrary to Sections 6(b) and 1(2)(a) of the Robbery and Firearms (Special Provisions) Act, Cap. RII, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004,” the charge stated.

In her testimony before the court, one of the victims, a trader, said that four armed men attacked them at a barricaded point at Aisegba Ekiti along Omuo – Ado Ekiti Road.

The victim said, “They collected our phones, power bank, other valuables, and a cash sum of N105,000.00 and ran into the bush. I was rescued by a sympathizer, but the driver drove back to Omuo and made a formal complaint to the police”.

The prosecutor, Ibironke Odetola, called six witnesses and tendered charms, phones, camouflage underwear, a hammer, three hoods, fake Dollar notes, and cutlasses among others as exhibits, while the defendants spoke in their defence through their lawyer, Adeyinka Opaleke, and called no witnesses.

In the judgment on Thursday, Justice Blessing Ajileye, who said the prosecution proved the case beyond reasonable doubt that there was an armed robbery on 16th August 2022, found the two persons guilty.

The judge pronounced, “Consequently, the sentence of this court upon Benjamin Joseph and Stephen Orban is that they are hanged by the neck until they are dead, may God have mercy on your souls”.

Politics / Re: Throwback Photo Of Gen. Ironsi & IBB At An Occasion In 1966 by Kukutente23: 6:38pm
Christistruth00:



Ironsi and Ojukwu were part of the Coup that was why Azikiwe was warned to escape but the Coup plotters insisted on waiting for Sardauna to return from Saudi Arabia 2 days earlier before Carrying out the Coup


https://dailytrust.com/amp/british-intelligence-reports-on-how-ironsi-took-over-3
Ojukwu arrested and took a man off the London bound Aeroplane at Kano because he thought he was Prime Minister Balewa's Brother


Azikiwe sent a Telegram to Gen Ironsi from London on the 16th of January addressing Ironsi as the Head of State

Ironsi didn't take over Power until the following day

That meant Azikiwe already knew of the Plan by Ironsi to take Power before it happened

It was the British Commonwealth Office from where Miss Emery who was Azikiwe's Secretary had sent the Telegram that informed Azikiwe that Dipcherma the Northern Minister of Transport was acting in Balewa's Place as Head of the Rump Cabinet and not Gen Ironsi and that it would be a good idea to resend the Telegram to Dipcherma instead


Below is the Video of Azikiwe on the day he left for his Medical Vacation in October 1965 he was well enough to inspect a guard of honour and take the Salute

So why didn't he attended the Commonwealth leaders Conference which held in Lagos 2 days before the Jan 15th 1966 Coup ?

Azikiwe definitely knew what was coming and he knew it was going to be very bloody

Every King is an employee of the state governor. Just as one governor sacked one King and appointed another , another governor has sacked one and appointed another.

You don't need to take crime as a living career to change your living condition, you will get caught one day and that will be your END⚠️

What you need as a man, is a PLAN.... A working plan that will work for you for that matter!!!!! (Travel, business or something)

Then figure how to raise money for it (even if is doing crime one time) and give it your last blood. That's how to change your condition and no one will do it for you except YOU!!

It's a COLD world for us the men🥶 and no one cares!!! I was once in your shoes before i did what i had to do to travel out... Men do what needs to be done whether they like it or not bro⚠️

Lastly when you break the ice, become very wicked and dangerous so you will continue to stay at the top, else you will come back to square one. Humans are very WICKED
