All we need is a central database of all citizens and foreigners in the country and this will be updated with time accordingly. e.g: if Mr. abc is already captured in the central database and he buys a car this month and obtains a liscence, it will be captured for him- the car number,plate and driving liscence. This DB will also be use for election, state, education. It will be easy to trace. If the same Mr. abc is now having a PHD degree it will be updated, and if he packs to another house, the new street no will be updated for him. It is useless, and irrespossible for our government operating different databases. Thats why we say once your Leader is not exposed to new innovation in the world he will continue to award different contract for desame project.

Simply go to the FRSC and ask questions - it is a very simple thing to do.


indeed as if we all are not in Nigeria. We all know what is applicable here. Less than an hour ago i asked from a person that should know in ABUJA and his first response was like " back off, classified info for security reasons"
After much cajoling, he told me something similar to the below:

Secondly, it amazes me seeing peeps being civil with that cursed Beaf. U guys seems not to know his modulus operandi. he is so dangerously daft.

[b][size=15pt]It isnt that we do not want to support advancement but the problem here is that what the man has proposed is nothing new and is no advancement. [/size][/b]There is an existing database of cars registered in Nigeria where cars are linked to names and addresses. What then is the revolutionary thing Retardeen is proposing? Not everyone will jump for joy at the sound of some technical terms. You can fool some people sometimes but you can fool all the people all the time. Maybe 20 years ago before the world became a global village, announcemnts like this would have fooled 99% of the population but these days many of us have broadened our world view and have in depth knowledge and understanding of issues.

It has to be an electronic database. If in the 21st century where a terabyte of storage costs less than $100, Nigeria is still recording car registration details in[b] 2B exercise books[/b] then I am afraid there is no redemption for the country,

I said to many people before the last elections that the biggest problem of Nigeria was not corruption or jobs or security or power but a national database. This is the foundation for every other solution in the 21st century. But what many of you fail to realize is that this automatically brings up the most sensitive issue in Nigeria: The north does not want a database. That will automatically change the country and put them on the disadvantage. OBJ wanted to do it but was frustrated from it. The day Nigeria adopts a national database, the following will become glaring:

1. The north is not more populated than the south. It can never be. The sea cities are always more dense than the inland cities. This is normal geography. If you check every other country along the west African coast, their south is more populated than their north.
2. Large land mass is not the same thing as large population. Mali is bigger than Nigeria in size but are just a few millions.
3. Nigeria is not divided into a 50/50 Christian/Moslem population like CNN and Al Jazzera always report. 80% of the south and around 40% of the north are Christians.
4. Northerners are not Hausas. Hausa is just a general language spoken in most of the north but the Hausa and Fulani are a minority tribe in Nigeria.
5. The result of this database will alter the elections in Nigeria permanently.


This is the reason why it will very difficult to adopt a National database in Nigeria. Some people will fight it to the last. But the good news is that nothing can stop an idea whose time has come and very soon, it will be done, no matter the forces that might be against it.

Another fool displaying his abject ignorance for the world to see and Kobojunkie supporting stupidity. Pathetic.

There is no existing database of cars registered in Nigeria where cars are linked to names and addresses. Each state has a registration office. Lagos state started their e-registration office like 2 to 3 years ago. They have even being at logger heads with the FRSC over who should register vehicles. Nigeria has never had a central database. Even the FRSC has never had a central database. That is why it takes a long time to register vehicles. A car stolen from Lagos can easily be registered in another state. everything has been on manual. What the president has introduced is completely new in Nigeria. Some of you let your cynicism turn you into fools. ode!

Please answer some questions and remember this is 2011


2) He was vice president for 3 years and has been president for about 18 months, why did it take a suicide bombing for him to propose this 'new' system

edicolove:

Again you display ignorance. first, only Lagos state has started proper electronic database. When you go to the registration offices of the states, they give you paper forms and the final document you get is manually written on. Only port harcourt and Abuja has electronic cards like Lagos. When you have an issue, they have to go thru files. Secondly if the past governments did not do it, it is not GEJ fault. In fact, it is a credit to him that he has started it.

Also you definitely have no knowledge of database systems. You dont just wake up and merge databases. Go read up info on data normalization and come back and post. Excel sheets and Access DBs are not the kind of databases required to run a countries vehicle registration. You have no idea of database systems obviously. If it were so easy, countries like America and Uk will not be spending mega budgets for it. I have a project that has to do with vehicle tracking so I have an idea how it works.

A car registration system is about Databases, schemas, logic, business models, networking and real programming. If you dont get it right from the beginning, you will get to a point where you might have to cancel the project and start all over. Data migration is a very slow and difficult process and any mistake will lead to unreliable data and compromise the whole system. It can even lead to major chaos and court cases. Imagine a scenario where names of car owners are swap in the process. Please before you criticize, make sure you know what you are saying and calling your president a retardeen makes you a low life scum. You should be ashamed of yourself. If you were more intelligent, you wouldnt be sitting here typing on your N60, 000 laptop or desktop computer. You would be living the life on a posh apartment somewhere in Highbrow Lagos or Abuja. dunce!
