Investment / I Am Looking For The Best Crypto Course Out There. No Caps! by c2far: 3:22pm On Aug 03
Hello.

Can you please recommend a course for a newbie who knows nothing about Crypto and does not even have an account? Kindly share links or names to enable comparison and eventually settle for one.

Certainly a paid course, please. Value has to be exchanged for value.

Thank you for your guidance.
Religion / Re: The Truth About Christ Embassy Healing School by c2far: 12:14am On Mar 25
You don't need faith to be healed.

Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. He did not need Lazarus to have faith.

Several instances of Christ just having compassion. It is the duty of the minister of God to 'receive' on your behalf.

P.S Remember the centurion who was not even a Christian. He just understood the princi0le of authority. Healing is about establishing authority. It is not a business of faith of the person to be healed but that of the person doing the prayer. If the sick person has faith, Good. But it is certainly not a requirement.

Where is your prayer mountain or valley? Where is that place you love going to alone to commune with God?
Business / Re: FCCPC Orders Opay To Address Account Anomalies; Opay Reacts by c2far: 10:24pm On Oct 04, 2023
A year ago or so, I paid a bolt driver in Abuja using the phone number he used to call me. I just asked him which bank and he said Opay. I was done with the 2k plus transfer plus tip. I asked him to check. He said no alert. I called the number for him. He said, he does not have an account with that number. He asked to see, I showed him. It did not make sense then. Now it does with this complain. I had to transfer the sum again, of course without tip this time.

Opay's revolution was to convert everyone to users. This clearly had a backdoor support from NCC. Now it's in the open. Goodluck with resolving this. I am jejely moved the little I have on their platform.

Better save than sorry. The lawlessness in Nigeria sha. Every sector! If it is not cotton wool inside a person, it will be toothpick inside someone's mouth at the dental clinic. Now, it's opening an account without filling any form.

Interact with your platform... See explanation.

Even in death, Prof. was still referred to as Soyinka's brother. He detested this while alive. He was an embodiment of achievements in his own right. It explains why Lola Shoneyin refused to bear Soyinka. Some names are made strong by some forbearers. Adieu Prof. You made your mark.

I hope those in Nollywood are listening and watching. This is how to leverage your reach and influence for massive social good.

Politics / Re: Pictures Of Primary Health Center Built By Ifelodun Local Government, Lagos by c2far: 11:20am On Feb 12, 2022
My only problem with this building is that notice board that says "Triage/Vital Station". If that notice board is not straightened, it is unlikely that the quality of service will. It is unlikely they would be able to maintain the facility.

That said, this effort is commendable. They should also spend 1/10th of the amount spent on the building in training the humans that will be providing service there. Without that, there is no point.

Family / ID Card For Children: What Are The Options? by c2far: 5:48pm On Dec 11, 2021
I need an ID card for my daughter. She is about 3 years old. International Passport is not an option at the moment given the very long processing time. Same thing also with NIN. I need it for her within country travel by next weekend.

Anyone with an idea of what I can do. I know they always check ID card also for children before boarding a flight.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: 4 Unusual Ways To Get A New Job (True Story) by c2far: 6:19pm On Nov 22, 2021
The surest way is to find a Small sized and promising company. Show up there with skills and qualification they need. Tell them you want to work for them for free. Do an excellent job. Tell them bye after one month. They will beg you to stay and pay. It works.

But for it to work, you must be solid. And ensure you get to work early and leave late.

TV/Movies / King Of Boys II Was Lit, But Charly Boy Remained A Boy by c2far: 7:15pm On Aug 29, 2021
You should watch Kemi Adetiba's new release. Like a number of Nigerians in this space, I can count the number of Nigerian movies I have seen. Every now and then, we find exceptional ones, KoB is one of such.

I was going to attempt a review, but not sure I can commit to that. I saw the movie this morning and all characters were a perfect fit, except one.

Oh! Sola Sobowale was in her full glory. Every line delivered with the brilliance of a thespian. Ade Tiger had the body movement, looks and feel you'll expect for one whose shoulder bore the responsibility he was given. Let's not talk about Nse, she is the engine that got the vehicle of KoB racing at top speed. Ajai-Lycett showed us what it means to be a bourgeoisie. She oozed it every inch of the way. Did you see how she got Nse to beg for it on her knees! Now that was a moment.

The script of KoB should be kept in a museum for generations to see what this black race is capable of. It should be a course in every serious institution of learning where department of theatre arts has residence.

Aare was it. That role showed the contradictions that the political class and system presents. Makanaki was too good he had to be resurrected to come back. But then, there was something wrong with his act, the energy did not match that of KoB 1. I may be wrong. How can I forget RMD? God bless his soul. The clergy per excellence whose past caught up with him in the hands of Eniola Badmus. He played the role perfectly. Sanctimonious, yet solicitating! What ever that means....

And then to the act that I think underperformed most. Charly Boy unknowingly betrayed what KoB stood for. Delivery. He wore the regalia. It fitted him. The rings also sat well on him. The crown for that role fell off his head. Each time he let out words, they fell flat. The words bounced on the screen like the feeble attempt of a one year old to mimic what the Ronaldo will do with a ball at a goal post. It felt like a boy who had been given the role of a man. I struggled to think of which Nollywood act will have bettered this. KoK may have been. It may however give the movie a different taste. No one orders for a Cognac and gets a Brandy instead. Maybe Pete Edochie, but then he will have been too old, and a little mechanical for that role. Maybe this was also the challenge for the production team. The good news is that they killed him. They shot the character of out existence. Even in dieing, he still did not die with the class befitting of the role he was assigned to play.

Okay, folks. This is not a review. Just the thoughts of one who watched for straight hours. Please do not attempt to find the film on some free hosting space online. Get on Netflix for 1,200 and let's support our own. It's the least we can do in a country where the Ministry of Culture and Tourism are possible led by men and women without a taste bud for the arts.

Business / Re: Mobil Filling Station, ₦10,000 & POS Wahala: How Can I Resolve This Issue? by c2far: 7:44pm On Jul 30, 2021
OP, a quick one. Help us with lessons from this experience so we can also learn to avoid situations like this, or learn how to solve matters like this.

You earlier went to the bank and the bank said No. What changed this time? Who was at fault all along.

In hope. I say thanks for your response.

tunbosun002:


Good evening nairalanders,
I want to say a very big thank you to Mobil (11PLC) for their prompt response when they saw my post. They reached out to me and assisted in ensuring the matter is resolved.

I filled a POS error form at my bank and got credit within 24hrs by FCMB.

Thank you to all nairalanders for your various suggestions.
Career / Before You Choose That Career. Lessons From Kyari's Ordeal by c2far: 9:45am On Jul 30, 2021
Your personality should be a major deciding factor before you choose a career. If you love wealth there are certain career paths you can't choose. Not because you won't be wealthy, it is because you have a lower chance to and again there is a bigger chance you may get tempted.

Imagine a young lecturer saying he or she wants to be as wealthy as Dangote. Chances are that your case will be like that of the NECO/JAMB man, Dibu Ojerinde.

You can't be a Police Officer and be as ostentatious as Kyari. Check his Facebook timeline. That picture of him and his brothers puts the latter at risk. That profession does not fit that lifestyle. Imagine seeing my Imam that loves comedy always liking the posts of Mr. Macaroni. He can only enjoy the posts privately.

You know you have a weakness for women and you are a lecturer in the School of Social Sciences. Even criminals who want to stay undetected stay off social media but then they can't help it sometimes. If you love to be in informal dresses, there are certain profession that will be hard for you to fit in. I can't go to the hospital and then I am told the doctor is the best but he is on dreads.... I'll not risk it. I'll take a walk. There are written and unwritten code for every profession. Kyari erred.

He saw my Kaftan and liked it.... Are you normal at all Kyari? (In Macaroni's voice). We loved the idea that there was our own Jack Bauer somewhere but then it seems all is lost now.

Don't just get a job because you need one. Get one that fits. And stay with the code. We spend over 12 hours daily on our work. It's our life. Choose wisely.

Is this the number of passengers or the number of trips?

Business / Re: Mobil Filling Station, ₦10,000 & POS Wahala: How Can I Resolve This Issue? by c2far: 2:27pm On Jun 24, 2021
I love matters like this. It's the easiest to resolve if you know how. Just simple emails and you will be fine.

1. Get the email address of the staff attending to you at FMCB; your bank.
2. Get the official email address of FCMB too.
3. Get the Filling Station Manager's name and also the staff that you eventually transfered to. You should have the latter easily since you posted payment to him. For the Manager, also get his phone number. Armed with these, move on to stage 4.
4. Get the official email address of Mobil Nigeria or whatever name they go by.
5. Get the names of the CEO. Go to email hunter and then find his email address or use LinkedIn.
6. Draft a beautiful email listing out your points one after the other with dates. Be very clear and brief. A page at most. Attach the POS Declined document and also the document from the bank proving the transaction was right.
7. Don't go EFCC or CBN yet.
8. Send your email and wait for the magic.
9. You see why we said they cannot ban Twitter now! Na for there we dey resolve matters like this before.

Best of luck with this.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Something Is Wrong Somewhere by c2far: 1:05pm On May 29, 2021
Three things could have happened.

1. Maybe they found something on you that turned them off during a final check. Check your Instagram, Facebook etc to be sure they are clean.

2. I think you should have called the agency on Friday or sent them a message. Waiting two weeks was too long. Remember the admins coordinating the process for the interviewers are also human. They may have missed out your details.

3. It is also possible the Nigerian factor played out fast and someone had a candidate that needed to be chosen.

Above all, you'll get what is yours. Forge on. Pray. Do your bit too. Don't give up. It's not even an option when beans is now 1k plus.

Best of luck bro/sis.

Sad to read this. What's happening in Uyo?

Everyone, especially our young people should learn to be on the alert. Concentrate when you are outside your house. Be ready to protect yourself. That's not the time to plug your ears and bury your head in your phone. The times have become dangerous. Always analyse your environment. Be as discreet as possible.

Our government have become useless by the day. How difficult is it to have CCTV around cities? This will have been a crime so easy to solve. But then.... I pray succor comes her way.
