@T.B,abeg make I hear word jare. Members of Boko haram have been killing Nigerians for years now and you couldn't command them to be calm. Abeg park for one side make people wey get better way to sort this mess out come take center stage....

I believe economic sanctions on south Africa will go a long way to spurring up their government into taking decisive actions that will put an end to these attacks...

Nice

Op is a learner...Hehehe

Even if pdp does come back,I doubt you will be within its fold.. no wise politician who wants to progress will be willing to associate with a person like you....

Omo see face...

She should just buy a few yards of material and give to her tailor. Who knows,that may be cheaper.

Nice write-up...

Seriously? Whomever authorized that would certainly answer to me. Which kind rough play be that?

Depends if they both plan to get married,considering they are going to have kids. I'm of the opinion that a lady who isn't too tall should consider dating/marrying a relatively tall guy and vice versa so that their children will at least have a chance of growing to average height(there is no guarantee though).

Then again,height shouldn't be the primary determinant of who to be involved with.

I agree especially with rivers state.

Okay na

Okay na

I'm only with DSTV because of football matches and nothing else. Frankly,this increment is quite exorbitant and I feel reluctant to renew my subscription but what choice do I have? We need competition. Let other satellite tv providers hustle for tv rights. This will break the monopoly currently enjoyed by DSTV.

That kind thing

I've been android 5.0.1 lollipop on my nexus 5 for nearly 3 months now and it's wonderful, the only issue I have is the battery life; it drains quicker than when I was on kitkat

That's what I've also noticed. My battery drains faster than when the phone was running on kit Kat... It's so not funny.

This one

I don lose hope 4 Naija

My brother that's a good idea... We'll try that.

Any help?

Guys?

First of all,I couldn't decide on the appropriate section to place this and as such,mod,you can help me out..

Let me recount the power predicament of my neighbourhood and thereafter,solicit for your advice on the way forward. I'll try to be as brief as I can..

I reside in calabar and as such,my neighborhood is under the jurisdiction of PHED. In august,2013,our transformer blew up with resultant loss of power supply. We went to the nearest phcn office to lay our complaints and after a few days,they informed us that the damage was huge. After waiting till february 2014,we decided to find out what was keeping them. I and a few others decided to go see the business manager of the calabar zone,to find out the state of things. He told us that they had and still have a policy not to fix overly damaged transformers but will rather replace them,but that he had no idea when the replacement will be done and that if we can't wait for a new one,we can go ahead and bear the cost of the repairs.

We knew that was an indirect way of telling us that we were on our own. Knowing that,we decided to seek our fortune elsewhere. We wrote and paid a visit to SEA(state electrification agency). We were told several stories and promises were made. After waiting for 2 more months without receiving any concrete information,we went back to phed,got the contact of the mechanic and proceeded to get it fixed. The bill was 180k. We taxed ourselves and raised the cash. Then came the issue of transformer oil. He said we needed 3 drums at 75k/drum but that he could help us at 200k. We paid him.

1st week of May,2014,our repaired transformer arrived amidst dancing and jubilation. It was powered on and we had light. Suffice it to say that it exploded every weekend for 5weeks before it finally gave up the ghost. So for over 400k,it lasted less than 6weeks. We went back to phed and were told the usual stories. Folks got angry and decided not to contribute to the repairs. We stayed in darkness till december. Once again,we went to phed and were directed where to go get an old transformer at portharcort (they said ours was actually dead and no amount of tinkering would bring it back to life).

So we raised cash and sent an emissary to ph to bring back an old transformer for repairs. This time,the repair was done for 130k and oil bought for 100k(a drum and a half) . Power came back on the 3rd week of january amidst jubilation once again. We flexed the transformer until the 15th of february when it blew up again. At this point,we all have gotten to the end of our patience and without taking a poll,I know that nobody will contribute a dime for further repairs. And as usual,phed has decided not to help. Sincerely,we are tired. As pained as I am concerning the repeated waste of our hard earned cash and the nonchalance of phed,I also know that burning of fuel consistently or living without power is a more painful option but I can't in good conscience go about trying to raise more money for repairs.

There,you have the summary(believe me the story is longer and the cash burnt was way more than I mentioned). Please does anybody know how we can go about this whole thing with the endgame being acquisition of a functional transformer?
Your comments and advice will be most welcomed...

Fairgodwin:
hmm... I don't even know what to say to you again. I get tired of argument easily. But I want you to know you're not being logical or objective in your analysis at all. Will talking things over erase the fact that the abortion took place a few days to our supposed wedding? Ladies are the biggest advocate of the "no sex before marriage" campaign, and for you to have had a guy who willingly agreed to this, you still went ahead to be sleeping with another guy behind his back?! What more could the lady have asked for? What more could the guy have done?
Please my dear, let's take sentiments away and embrace objectivism!
Thanks for your time, as I humbly rest my case!

I commend you for trying so hard to get your point across but believe me,people like the poster you quoted will always argue probably because they believe they are better humans and see things more logically than the rest of us . Believe me,all the people advocating for dialogue,forgiveness and all what not will be the first to throw out caution and common sense when faced with a similar scenario.

@OP,my reflex response would be to call off the wedding,but after thinking about it,that would still be my decision because no amount of explanation,apology or emotional blackmail would make me continue with the wedding/marriage. Agreed,we are not saints,neither are we holy but for goodness sake,where is the love,where is the loyalty? Let's call a spade a spade. That woman doesn't deserve to be married.....

Op easy oo... With this kinda question,do you want GEJ maimed?

They should take it easy oo

FFK kindly take a sit please..

Funny...

That kind thing..

Good to hear HTC one m8 has got android L update. I use the same phone. Did you buy it in Nigeria?

Sure did. Got it a month after it was released.

donciccio:
I use HTC ONE M8 too but I've not seen any update.

I had to modify: after posting i got the update. now downloading it.
@op, u better update lets start lollipoping before them finish am leaf berry for us. don't be naive

Brotherly I don upgrade oo. Flexing it now....

Omo enh,the way guys have been flexing this thing enh,it only means I've been sleeping on a bicycle... Chai,there is God oo. Very well guys,I'm joining you now. Download in progress.......

Come to think of it,this is the first time my thread made front page... *runs out of the office with his shirt off in search of Seun* I must collect my price sharpenly.....

abatically:
If u have not upgraded yet, then what are u waiting for? Lollipop is sweet and I guarantee u won't want to go back to KitKat. I been using it on my LG g3 since November no issues. Upgraded my HTC one m7 about 2 weeks ago and my phone looks like a new phone. The HTC one m7 on KitKat was flawless, smooth with no single lag, but lollipop adds lots of improvement with improved battery life and other features. Don't be on a long thing, upgrade ASAP.

Hahaha...correct man. I'm upgrading ASAP
