GAZZUZZ:
I can taste fried engine Ecm.

Trust me, its risky but it never happens always, hence the disclaimer. I ve seen more than yanking of the terminal and ECU lives to tell the abuse. You must'nt remind me the obvious, its there already.

See, he did it, and nothing happened.

IGBOSON1:
^^^I'm not surprised by all these revelations! The only mofos that will pour scorn on this report are (unsurprisingly) core northern born-to-rule apostles, and (surprisingly) gullible and slavish southerners who see nothing wrong in the wickedness going on in this country!

Anyway, we Igbos have always managed to keep our heads above the water, no matter the machinations of our haters; it's the South South/Ijaws i'm pitying!

I'm still wondering where they (the born-to-rule northern oligarchs) procured the powerful jazz they've been using on some us misguided and naive southerners.......it's quite potent i have to admit!

Go hug transformer!

When i hit the op's words 'Attahiru Jega working for the enemy' I didnt want to read further.

I wonder why some people like this op cant even try to be unbiased.

Hello guys,

I have an issue with my Honda 2003 Accord. While driving, the battery light comes on and will not go off until I put off the engine and then turn it on again before the battery indicator goes off. After driving for like 4-5 mins the battery comes on again. I took it to a rewire and he said the alternator is weak, i replaced the alternator and it still does this. I am yet to take it back to the rewire as i feel something is wrong......Please what could be the cause of this ?

Scan scan scan!

During live scan and when the engine is idling, voltage must be around 14.2-14.3volts. If its more or less, you have a charging problem. You can remove the +ve terminal of the battery when engine is idling, if the engine cuts off, you have a problem, if not. You something else is amiss. However, is not good on your ECU to yank that battery terminal like that. Do that only if you cant get a scan. Disclaimer! Dont say i didnt tell you.

I was disappointed when GEJ decided he will pay Nigerians back with subsidy removal. If Buhari allows any PDP decampee to get any position among the no 3 and 4 citizen then i shall be disappointed from the inception of the regime i voted hoping for change.

I was disappointed when GEJ decide he will pay Nigerians back with subsidy removal. If Buhari allows any PDP decampee to get any position among the no 3 and 4 citizen then i shall be disapointed from the inception of the regime i voted for hoping for change.

It is over even before the elections. El Rufai is Kd st governor. If i were Ram, i wouldnt decieve myself like GEJ did.

It is no news that the First lady Dame Patience Jonathan has not been seen publicly since the presidential elections was won by the opposition party, APC.

I wondered what happened to her and if she decided to stay away from public. I know the latter cannot be the case since she is known to be a very public woman.

My first thought was she might have gone for a medical trip since it is a usual practice in Aso villa for Nigerians to be kept in the dark with regards to the health status of our leaders while they are away on treatment. I got gisting with some friends in the Police force in Abj who said someone reliably informed him that Madam had collapsed at one point and was immediately flown out of the country.

The story makes perfect sense as it was expected of the first lady to atleast show up with hubby for Easter service which her hubby showed up alone. At this point, it is highly convincing that she might have faced a health challenge and was flown abroad as usual, leaving Nigerians in the dark.

Yungwizzzy:

Like another script from kunle afolayan ft player Boy Jim iyke so I am at the moment

She said she wasn't coming to spend weekend, that she was going to Abuja to celebrate Easter with her big Sis

One of her curvy, sexy devilish looking Friend decided to pay her visit that Good Friday, not knowing (or knew) she wasn't around. it was about 8pm that night I was just about 15mins watching a movie which a God fearing Nairalander gave me the link -50 shades of grey

Weda na the many many sex scene wey dey dis yeye film o abi dem do juju b4 dem release am

before Yungwizzzy will know I was coming (don't ask me where exactly)
fast forward to 2hours later when I finally came, then I WAS NAKED

Ahh ohh ahh I screamed.....!!

suddenly my bedroom's door which was slightly ajar opened w i d e open. behold Bae was standing hoping to surprise unexpected boo boo. I could not mutter a word neither could she or Itohan who was bewildered at the happening

She just locked the door back without any visible expression and went straight to the kitchen, couldn't find nothing to eat she started cooking


I had to beg my boy in office who was spending weekend at mine's to drop Itohan off

My problem is since then Bae has not said even one word about the incident but she is acting normal as if nothing happened

please NLders I'm scared I don't want to approach her because I don't want to lose her. I love her I cherish her


please advise before she poison me

and btw what are the effects of taking TRAMADOL every time one wants to have sex -say 6 Times every week

Thanks

You got me cracking especially the tramadol matter. We have that in common. Makes me a master when i want to impress a new chick and keep her coming for more.

Forwetinnah:
Buhari has started o!! Using one Korofo as the boss in DSS when there are people more qualified for the job. Una dey see the quota system status raising it's ugly head again? Na certificate - less hausa people go head top positions now, that's why they've been fighting for the Presidency. The people no wan go school but wan hold big positions which can only be possible if their fellow illiterate brother be President

You dont deserve to be replied cos you seem to have no understanding of the subject. I will try so you may come to light.

This is no political appointment, its a detail. In this case, every president must choose his CSO from the rank in DSS. Buhari picked his CSO from a rank lower than recommended by DSS and DSS must do as commanded by the awaiting commander in chief. No one can impose on the president even he is not yet sworn in.

Dont forget he chose his current CSO as an ex president to continue as CSO of a pesident elect and subsequently Presisdient. The CSO is definately qualified but does not posses the rank.

Sweetguy25:
You will be absolutely disappointed to hear that no single Nigerian president that operates under the 1999 Nigerian constitution can bring the accelerated positive change we desire in Nigeria. We are wasting our time.

You fit go hug transformer now, since you are sure electricity will never flow in Nigeria!

Its people like you who turn to alms begging without inabilities. A man without hope is as good as dead.

Easterners need no convincing. Whether they like it or not, Buhari is their President. If Buhari does well, in 2019, Buhari will be reelected whether easterners like it or not. They made their bed, they must lie on it.

Texcoco:
[color=#1980BC] Well,Buhari needs familar faces around him,you cannot begrudge him that.But doing away with competency that should accrue to that position is just plain cattle herd mentaliy.The detail at 2011,would be hilariously incapable of becoming an embassy security attachee how much more detailing a forgotten Buhari....now the stakes have become higher, the same stagnant detail is fasttracked to sit in the shadows.....that is your quintessential Buhari,sacrificing competency for familiarity..won't be suprised if he replaces CBN governor with Daura Comprehensive Secondary School SS3 Economics teacher. [/color]

You sound very bitter, wonder what irked you.

Someone gave an example above you, i guess you skipped that. When GEJ skipped and retired 30 qualified and competent senior Generals to appoint Minimah who was promoted to occupy the chief of army staff, did you write a similar comment?

The same DSS that was very partisan, you expect Buhari to admit probably a mole from DSS into his presence because he has finally won against their wish. See, personal security is beyond competence, it is more of trust. If you watched the movies 'White house down or Olympus has fallen', borrow a leaf from there. If Buhari trusts Mani better than the DSS DG himself, what does that mean to you? Buhari may be waiting when he assumes commander in chief then he may reassess the DSS before taking any security detail from them who wasnt with him before now. I would have done exactly what Buhari did. I wouldn't trust even the DG himself.

I shocked my boss to the core with my resignation two years ago. I had only spent 2months at his coy and in the third when my previous boss called me back from redundancy i was sent a year before. I now had a better package with full house rent, furniture, car and 3x my previous salary.

My call back coincided with an a.s.s my boss placed as my supervisor. Just a week to my resumption date, my supervisor and i had a very hot exchange of words with him sending me threats. He had no idea it was perfect timing for me, next morning, i submitted my resignation letter. Boss was shocked, its been only 2months he stuttered! I cited irreconcilable differences with my supervisor and refused any plea of reconciliation. My HR a beautiful woman begged to know the real problem, i just narrated our fight and that i cant have a supervisor who has no business in what we do or our profession telling me what to do and how to do it. Imagine a chemical engineer friend of my boss's brother with no experience supervising a civil engineer in an estate developing coy.

I left happy knowing my 3week old supervisor would be questioned why their 2 month old civil engr left them citing irreconcilable differences with him. At the end, during their jist they will hear unofficially from my colleagues that i got back with my former employers with more than twice their offer.

Only 500k votes! That means the win of 1.3m in Kastina alone will make the win of Enugu and 2 or 3 other SE PDP states inconsequential.

ibzane4nafs:
This result is comfirm cox I was there at kaduna south during the collation

I can confirm 100% validity of Sanga result atleast since i was privy to that info directly from the returning officer.

Even though APC lost in the PU i voted i am proud to have supported Buhari with my 1 vote. Luckily, my village is not the same as my PU and APC won in my village in Sanga LGA, am proud of my relatives for showing the difference.

Pure propaganda even with the disclaimer.

Its late to campaign bro, just sit and wait for the INEC boss to send GEJ back to Otuoke.

There is no smoke without fire. Its just time before Buhari is declared winner and GEJ will hide his face in shame. I wonder what FFK would say.

I am waiting for th official.

henryangelo:
Liars,propaganda, APC did that theirselves just to blackmail PDP,is no longer a news that APC and it's members are only interested in blackmail

So you can no longer have an open mind that this is a possible allegation. For your selfish propaganda you would rather believe APC is lying than accept that the electoral process was rigged. What is right or wrong or have you lost or sold your conscience to a party? You are supposed to be a Nigerian before a PDP member.

[color=Blue]That car's now a ruin. If the owner truly took a Hybrid-powered Honda to a roadside mechanic, he deserves to have his car wrecked.

I feel sorry for the car, but I have zero sympathy for the owner.[/color]

The funny thing is that this particular road side mechanic was not the one who did all the mess in the car. His situation was worst as he had no idea what kind of car he had in his shop or that alot of things have been altered. He was just trying to impress me with a car similar but special car to mine that could start with starter motor disconnected. He pointed to another covered suv that could do same, i didnt bother to find out what car it was.

When he popped the hood, the first thing i said was Hybrid and V6 then i saw the alternator and could not believe Honda put it there.

He told me the transmission was special unlike mine. I said, really, show me! The shifter was the same but i was expecting to see probably an Overdrive switch but what he showed me was hilarious. He pointed to the two seat heater switches on each side of the gear shifter. He told me how the owner drove the car while he fumbled with the buttons when the gear would not shift.

I told him i had pity on the owner who i believe bought that car out of ignorance.

cne010:
You said the car is an I4 hybrid this is a V6 engine

I said my car is an I4

MrHighSea:
At least some goods is outta thr. Be completely corperate cos i guess d interviewers r gonna b corperate too, u c, makes u rhyme. Just bak frm an interview too last wk.

We civil engrs control earth forces. BETTER B PREPARED TO START WORK RYT THR.

Your last line got me smiling.

Thanks.

Like the subject says, i got invited for an oil&gas job in PH tomorrow 23rd. I need tips for a successful outing. I have not attended an interview of such magnitude.

My main problem is stage fright. I lose breath, then concentration and then i start sweating, shaking then my voice and speech starts cracking due to fear of losing a good job opportunity. With that i lose the ability to think fast and answer questions i normally should.

I pray that my studies will not be in vain.

One more thing, i am still confused on whether to dress complete with a suit and tie or Chinos shirt and tie. I am a big guy and my only black suit is a tight fit and not very comfortable for me. I cant even button the jacket up. I seriously hope i can were the chinos, shirt n tie since that will make me more comfortable. Dont forget its not a bank job but an engineering one.

nurey:
Op if I knew you, I did take a cane and flog you well that's not an honda accord, that's a 3.0L V6 Kazeem Accord Hazardbrid. Stay clear off its path

LWKMD

The first thing i noticed was the generator (alternator) sitting somewhere strange. Secondly the belt system was no longer serpentine as usual with hondas from 2003. Thirdly, his attempt to start the car with starter motor connect failed. But when he removed the harness from the starter motor and tried again, the car simply and quietly sprout to life with no usual click or kick.

From the pics below, notice
1. The alternator is definitely not for this car
2. There is a construction for tensioning the belt drive which is attached to engine mount
3. See the serpentine belt tensioner idle and out of belt loop

So I had a weak brake pad clip that caused my almost worn out front right brake pad to rattle. My car, 03 Accord I4, was parked at the usual mechanics just by victimised hybrid. I had my mechanic pack a piece of carton like they usually do to the clips to reduce the rattle. He told me a hilarious story about the accord that can start without using its starter motor (kick starter). After LOL, i asked him to pop the hood which he did. I was shocked from my find. See the picture below if you will notice.

atakamus:
AMASIEKUMOR festival is a fiesta that the Ijaw of Gbaramatu Kingdom, Warri South-West Local Government Area, Delta State and their kinsmen from other parts of the Niger Delta region hold fire for at Oporoza, the traditional headquarters of the kingdom, annually. Amasiekumor is a female deity whose origin dates back to over 400 years. Its devoted worshipers believe that the goddess protects and blesses the faithful, irrespective of circumstances and even in times of battle.

In fact, some of them, perhaps blasphemously, describe the deity as Jesus Christ. Ex-militant leader and top-ranking figure in the kingdom, High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo, said, “Amasiekumor is just like Jesus Christ to us.” This year’s celebration of the deity was not different.

It was a five-day event that kicked off March 10 and ended March 15 with cleansing and purification exercise for all sons and daughters, who were involved in blood covenant and other related sins.
The goddess, who is housed at a bravura temple in a small forest adjacent the Oporoza Guest house of Tompolo is reverently treated. Soldiers of the Joint Task Force on Niger-Delta were amazed at the people’s uncommon belief in the goddess when they bombarded the community in 2009 and did everything to destroy the shrine.

Arrival/commencement

It started with making of various sacrifices ranging from sin to purification offerings, as Amasiekumor forbids uncleanliness. Everywhere on the Oporoza canal, last Thursday, was littered with assorted foods and live chickens for the deity. Every participant or visitor was subjected to a compulsory sanctification ritual; a mixture in a native pot is compulsorily splashed on your head, as you dismounted the speedboat with the aid of leaves.
It is said that any man or woman who had sexual intercourse (probably on the day of the festival) will not be allowed entry into the arena and there is no ransom to redeem it.

Not even journalists, irrespective of their religious belief, were spared of the purification exercise. The zealots said it was to avoid polluting the ceremony. Last Thursday was the grand finale and merrily dressed men and women from all walks of life trooped to the arena. Aged women were dressed in branded white T-shirts with white head gears, while some youths in similar fashion, also had white pieces of cloth tied round their head.

Tompolo’s patented appearance

Tompolo, who is rarely seen, could not hide on that day. Decked in a branded Amasiekumor T-shirt atop a branded PDP wrapper with a white cloth piece tied around his neck and head, he was the cynosure of all eyes. A special song was rendered in his honour and visitors, who barely saw him, had the opportunity of snapping him with their phones and cameras, as he walked to and fro from the adrenaline-charged rhythms of the drummers. Women, led by Chief Vero Tangbowei swayed their bodies and wriggled their waists in a fashionable manner likened to Owigiri dance steps in a high spirit.

Enter the deity

Ear-plitting canon shots burst out, following an announcement that the arena be cleared for the materialization of Amasiekumor. A broom-wielding black masquerade, led Amasiekumor and its chief priest flanked by Tompolo and other high ranking officials of Amasiekumor into the arena. The black masquerade swept the ground as it swaggered with the parrot feather capped deity in a special cavalcade. Shouts of joy rent the air as people struggled to behold Amasiekumor.

Distinct songs in its praise were sung until it sublimely took its seat in front of a covered white tent with the chief priest. The black masquerade swept round the arena followed with great dancing by aged women in a single file with youths in the middle of the circle dancing.

Mint Naira notes for the goddess

Food and drinks were in surplus supply, scores of goat skulls obviously offered for sacrifices plagued the place. Meanwhile, twirling continued as Tompolo and other wealthy Ijaw sons and daughters threw mint Naira notes in the air in front of the deity. This year’s festival culminated in the endorsement of President Goodluck Jonathan and special prayers for the success of the March 28 and April 11 elections.

For Jonathan

Clutching a photograph of President Goodluck Jonathan, the female spiritual head of Gbaramatu kingdom, Mama Ebolomorbo-Ere, joined by all white dressed aged women, stood in front of the Ijaw deity to pray for his victory. The chief priest thereafter sanctified the prayers with a native chalk. It was declared shortly after that Jonathan’s electoral victory was secured and rumbles of celebration and dances followed, as Amasiekumor, the chief priest, Tompolo and others entered into the white tent for a special session. Canon shots were later released and the departure of Amasiekumor was announced.

Tompolo speaks

Speaking shortly, Tompolo said, “Amasiekumor is celebrated to protect the unity and integrity of the Ijaw nation. Amasiekumor means, no matter what happens a mother will protect her child, we want Jonathan to return again and by the grace of God, he is victorious already.” Director General, Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, NIMASA, Mr. Ziakede Akpobolokemi, said, “Amasiekumor is one of the greatest festivals we have, it shows who we are and how united we are. Everyone requires prayers, which is why we have come to pray for the president, he needs all over prayers and support.”

Beginning of good things —Pudie

Public Relations Officer, PRO, Gbaramatu Kingdom, Chief Matthew Pudie, asserted, “It started very long time ago, it means there will be no more evil, calamity, defeat and failure and it marks the beginning of good things, blessings and promotion. “It is cleansing the land for prosperity to come; it is done for the good we are expecting in the coming election. The celebration will climax with the declaration of everybody for Jonathan’s re-election,” he declared.

Amasiekumor protected us during the struggle— Bounanawei

Ex-militant leader, “General” Godday Smith, aka Bounanawei (Owner of the forest) of Niger Delta said: “Amasiekumor is very important and unique to us, we succeeded in the struggle because of the special protection we enjoyed. It is a deity of prosperity; our struggle was for prosperity of our land. “We are here today to renew and revive our spiritual standings, the land has been cleansed and victory and prosperity are here. It has nothing to do with religion; it is the way of our life.”

They didn't have to do that in 2011. God did that for him free of charge but he turned his back on God. The consequence shall manifest when he finally loses out on March 28th.

I have driven my car across a river in a similar ferry which carries 2 cars in Benue state. Though that one was one boat with one engine. These are much smaller ones with smaller engines but will definitely do the job if the properly fix the points of connection btw the ferry and the individual boats.

TheLeader:
Ever wondered why Buhari wins all the online polls? Here is what I think-

I think its because the bulk of the populace that actually know what's going on in the country are the ones that have access to the internet and know how to use it, hence the overwhelming support for the opposition online. We've seen Buhari sweep polls conducted by even AIT and GEJ's aids...Surprising huh?

Why doesn't this necessarily replicate itself when it comes to the poorest of the poor?

Most...yea most Nigerians in our numerous villages that constitute the bulk of the country don't have access to the internet...or can't use it. At best they are stuck with NTA and the network news on radio...I need not state how one-sided the news here can be. Furthermore, these people(some of my friends and relatives included) are predominantly illiterates so might not have the ability to rate the Government's performance objectively, hence their inclination to vote along ethnic/religious line rather that the capability of the candidates.

...so next time you see 400 like in 3 minutes for the opposition, don't wonder if persons have multiple accounts and can switch between 50 of those accounts in 3mins just to click like...nt feasible right? well I thought so too.

These persons are just the majority of enlightened Nigerians trying to salvage whatever is left of our once great country before it is too late.

"If you try, you might fail, but if you fail to try, you've failed already".

Now you know why Buhari wins the polls online.

#MyOneKoboOpinion

I agree with you opinion.

Dont be surprised when Buhari still wins the main polls due to personal grievances with the President. This grievances may be from ethnic religious and security reasons or simply grievance with the local PDP politician that will extend to the president. Dont forget illiterates are gullible and can be convinced anyway mostly by majority views.

And this makes FP, SMH!
