A lot of Nigerians are scanning the speech looking for the next thing to further entrench the nation in crisis.

Hello house, please l get this GBam noise when slowing down to stop or approaching a traffic light. That is when the gear is suppose to return to gear1, that is when l hear this gbam noise. Please kindly share your suggestions. Help a brother! Please. Accord 02 to be precise.

I think its either a gapped shaft or bad engine mount that occur when the gear shifts down to 1.

Yankari is one of the only two sites in Nigeria where lions still exist.

I personally saw a pride of Lions in 1998.

Are you sure this is really buyer's remorse?

In my own understanding buyer's remorse is as a result of you buying something, then you not liking it again and wishing to return it back not because the product is spoilt but simply because there's another one you now fancy or you have now realized that the product is not really worth it!!!

In your own case, you just bought a terribly bad product!!!

To know whether it was buyer's remorse, ask yourself this: Had it been the battery was perfect, would you have wanted/wished to return the phone?

You see...

Agreed, although, some people will realise the product they got is not reliable so they become remorseful.

Buyers remorse is actually a feeling of regret after buying something that is unnecessary or extravagant.

chinchonglee:
Thanks!
A mechanic told me Honda in general isn't a reliable car and advised me to flee from their product.

My EOD has served me very very well. Honda has its strong points, if you know how to capitalise on it, it will serve even better than a Toyota will.

If you rely totally on mechanics for your car issues, Honda is not for you. It is the actions of our mechanics that make it unreliable.

In America, CRV is second to RAV 4 in sales, CIvic is ahead of Corolla in recent years. But most Nigerian mechanics still say the Honda is unreliable. They must be doing something wrong if statistics doesn't agree with them.

Honda Baby Boy!
That care made me lose my sanity. I got broke to a point I couldnt feed well. All my savings, investments and capital nearly ran dry because of that goddamn car. Am crying as I type dis sef because it's memoirs is enough to make me cry.

I woke up one morning carried the car to Ladipo, sold it parts by parts on a single spot. Since den, I had my peace back.
I bought other problematic cars tho but that one made me depressed.

I'll never buy a car again(for now).
I'll never carry anything liability again(cars, girls, beer palours etc)

Sorry dude. But I have a friend who upgraded from baby boy to evil spirit, he is still wishing he had not sold that baby boy. The way the guy bashed that baby boy ehn, i dey always pity for the car. It served him wella.

My younger sis was about to get married, her husband to be bought her a gift, a new expensive phone (LG Nexus 4) when it came out newly. It was a thing of envy.

Her friends were doing "let me see the phone" and it dropped on the hard floor. It was just a tiny crack at the edge of the screen but the screen became unresponsive. She brought it to me, I took to LG service center and they said 68k. I shipped it to Lag and the price came down to 48k.

The wedding came and went. 1yr later, the screen was 26k. Another 1yr later, I needed a phone upgrade so I sold my phone for 10k and got the screen for 9k.

The new screen was just busy giving ghost touch syndrome. The person who fixed the screen tried his stock of 3 screen, all the same syndrome. He got all the screens he could find, still ghost touch. Until he ordered for it from Lag and we got it 1 week later. The phone was finally back after 2+yrs.

I updated 2 android versions to the latest, the phone was still cool. 2 weeks later while sleeping my son took the phone and he tripped and fell. The screen broke again!

I got someone who had its calibrator, all was ghost touch. Its been 5yrs now the phone is still with the guy I gave.

Hamzaaaaaaaa:
I never wanted to comment,but I can't just help it.....I swear Baba Buhari is a waste product,northerners are nothing but cows in form of human

I would never understand your kind of reasoning.

If Local Government councils refuse to pay their workers new minimum wage, how is Buhari responsible as the President? Is he a local government Chairman or counsellor?

How is Buhari involved here?

Harjibode:
Good evening OP

I am a Banker and i understand what happened but before I proceed let me reiterate that banks have provide strict mechanism to frustrate fraud perpetration by staff of the bank. So your notion that someone in the inside of the ATM is quite wrong, as a Banker and an ATM service savvy person your money wasn't stolen.

Actually I laughed at how people think about the bank and their staff as fraud... I was also naive about the whole thing when I wasn't in the bank.

Now back to your problem, it's quite simple what actually happened was an ATM technical fault that can occur to any instrument. In this situation because the ATM counted the money, it will definitely report the transaction as a successful one. In this situation the only way to confirm is by CCTV footage.

So you know. If the ATM doesn't count the money it will be report as a decline transaction and your money will be reversed automatically or reversed upon complaint where it will be log for reversal.

There are many public assumptions about bank that is quite surprising. I do understand I was in your shoe too.

Note: Banks are very careful with your fund you will need to be on both side to judge.


Goodnight

I don't specifically know how the ATM work but I assumed some things

1. The cash deposited in an ATM is fixed and recorded, for illustration say N100,000

2. The ATM being a teller keeps a ledger of all successful withdrawals. Therefore this teller machine is limited to dispensing 100,000.

3. If this ledger contains successful withdrawals of N102,000, it automatically means N2000 was not dispensed to someone or some people.

4. If the ATM has 100,000 in its ledger but the ATM still has 2000 cash in it, it still means the some one wasn't paid.

However, if the banker responsible for putting cash in the ATM is aware that the ATM registered successful debit of N2000 and didn't dispense it, if he pockets the N2000 while officially servicing the ATM, there is no record of the cash not being dispensed to the customer. The only proof is the CCTV footage which the Bank will never give the customer. As long as the ATM ledger and the cash left in the ATM balance, the bank will deny any claim of undispensed cash from the customer.

This is what is happening in this branch. It could be a possible intentional ATM sabotage.

Sybello:
Sorry to derail you people abit pls,
Good Day sir,
i have emailed you recently and it seems you havent seen it. Please i need your nnnrecommendations on affordable and competent Honda mechanics in kaduna. I will also appreciate your contact pls.
thanks
@adanny01

I replied you. Will resend again.

SavageResponse:
It's very possible that the person who was working on the machine when it malfunctioned did not know you were there

He very much knew.

The machine was counting money repeatedly and endlessly. The ATM will not do that on its own.

Secondly, the ATM is not sealed to the wall so i could hear his every movement. I spoke to him, he paused and continued what he was doing without a saying anything.

I drove to First bank Kafanchan branch1 with my First Bank ATM card to withdraw N2,000. There are 6 ATMs and there was a small queue. It does happen that people will not check other ATMs but queue behind the one that was last successfully used. So I decided to try one of the other 5 free ATMs.

I did the normal things, the ATM started counting cash. It made the counting sounds and stopped. It start again and stopped. Started again and stopped. The ATM kept counting, stop and resume for over 10mins. Every one had withdrawn and left, people came and left but mine was still counting, stopping and resuming.

Then I heard the ATM gallery door open, then the machine that I was using was opened from the inside. The ATM stopped counting as the "cash cartridge" or whatever it is called was removed from the machine.

At this point, I spoke to whoever was there whom I was sure could hear me. I told him my card was still in the machine and has been there for over 10mins. The person didn't reply. I kept hearing the usual noise when an ATM is being worked on.

At last, about 5mins later, my ATM Card ejected with an error message that I can't recall.

I had a thought, what if the person in there knew I attempted to withdraw N2,000 and took out the money and pocketed it before my card was ejected, it will automatically mean it will never be a dispense error if I made a claim.

I had kids in the car so I moved to another ATM and made the withdrawal which was successful.

2 days later, no reversal so I filled an online complaint form on the 24th September. I was replied same day to confirm which transaction failed (1st or 2nd) since both were of same amount. I replied them the 1st. After almost 2weeks, having had other transactions resolved in less time, I wrote them a follow up email and got the shocker below.

I was convinced that 11what I actually thought could happen actually happened. I also recalled a similar case over 2yrs ago when I used my Mother-in-law's ATM card in the same bank and lost N19,000. I couldn't follow the case since it wasn't my card, her bank couldn't resolve it for her too.

I feel hurt because there is fraud going on in that bank and they make me look like a liar.

Why on earth will I withdraw N2,000 on one ATM machine, move to the next machine, withdraw another N2,000, then claim a dispense error on the 1st one only.
Even if I have amnesia, how did i remember that the second transaction was successful? Why would I supposedly withdraw successfully on 1st ATM then move to the next one and withdraw again.

I can forget N2,000 but I can't move on with the obvious fraud.

Moderators please do the needful.

As a born again Christian who is meant to speak the truth at all times, i encourage all our Christian brothers to emulate our Muslim counterparts in their decent way of life. Even though I'm a born again Christian, i have never seen a Muslim that will impregnate a Christian.

Its either you lie deliberately or don't know anything about it.

Its a thing of pride to them for a Christian girl to get pregnant for a Muslim. Kafanchan has gone into full crisis for the same thing and a lot of lives were lost due to the resulting violence.

Blessedassuranc:
Fyi campaign manager isn't a godfather.. So Ganduje has become a god father? Don't be too so quick to mention Edo.

Campaign manager? Is that the new name for a Godfather?

A serving governor as a campaign manager?

Nchenches:
You have refused to learn: the essence of politics is welfare of the people.
Your own essence of politics is promote ethnoreligious interest and interest of a few political heavyweights in a country.

When will you learn: a country of inequality knows no peace, and that without peace, no development? Mr Sophisticated, you guys have refused to learn: all parts of a country must sign to peaceful co-existence, else the country spends a fortune fighting undeclared wars, gets crippled?

Oya, bring the document.

Politics is not a game of I or you, its a game of us, them or together.

My own, there are over 200million Nigerians, subtract me, their are still over 200million Nigerians.

So it is not about me.

You may wish that Nigeria moves beyond the regional politics it is today, can you convince the 20million Nigerians to do same.

I have one vote, I choose who I like but only the majority win. And the majority will not listen to your speech.

It is either you sit and watch the majority or you join them and make the change amidst them.

SE doesn't want to join, they want to oppose the majority while asking them to do the right thing.

Blessedassuranc:
See you and your sense of god fatherism? Don't you know who to vote for? Must someone dictate to you who ll lead you? Unaa never see something for Nigeria.. Continue . no need sef shey VP talk say country be like wetin wan or go scatter..

You think you have a choice. I don't really have a choice. Political parties have the choice. General elections is just a mere official process, the main choice of leaders is done at Party primaries.

If you believe you have eradicated Godfatherism, wait till Obaseki has finish his tenure and come and tell me if he will not sponsor his own candidate. You let politicians deceive you. Edo people just changed a Godfather, you can't eradicate Godfatherism, the earliest you realise the better.

Why was Wike in Edo, isn't he turning into a PDP Godfather.

ZZ22:
coming out from prison and straight made the president how did Obj work for it? how did Yoruba work for presidency when a consensus was reached for them to be made president in 1999? talking about insult was GEJ spared by Northerners and SW? something is really wrong with you and the Nigerian system if you still believe at this age that two people have all it takes to make one president of a country.
Buhari has made worst policies ever known to humanity thus making Nigeria a terrible place and poverty capital of the world and you expect him to be spared of criticism and insult.

So you actually have the knowledge of a consensus. Who were the parties to the concensus?

It was Obasanjo and his powerful military friends. Who was the biggest politician at the time? Atiku. Why didn't Atiku look for president himself? Because it was unfair that Nigeria was led since 1979 by Northerners, Shagari, Buhari, Babangida, Abacha and Atiku. I skipped Shonekan because his stint is so irrelevant.

The concensus is to entrust it to a southerner then collect it back which Atiku has tried unsuccessfully since then, even though the north actually got it back with Yaradua.

Basically, you agree that there was a concensus. Who has the SE entered into a consensus with? Nobody. The SE don't have Northern or Western alliances, how could they survive politics by being an island?

Daum:
I strongly feel if we want to stay united in this country and show it, that we mean business, then the presidency should go to the south east. I am not from there. I am Edo but I feel it should go that way. Something happened in 1967 and till now we are still pretending to be one Nigeria.

As for the west, if they bring in Osinbanjo, I will rather vote for Ganduje. I don't like saboteurs and people who are so self centered and selfish.


Don't quote me oooo
I never brush this morning. If I open mouth swear for you

I also feel the SE needs to have the slot for fairness.

Unfortunately, I know that they have never worked for it and are still not ready to work for it.

Buhari gets abused everyday from people especially from the SE.

Tinubu gets the same insults from people of the SE.

These 2 politicians will crown the next president and the SE throw stones at them. These 2 politicians have a huge following in their regions. If SE wants the president, how will they get votes in the north and SW which is 4 geopolitical zones against 2. These 4 geopolitical zones combined have 3 times the population of the SS and SE combined.

Even if APC and PDP pick SE candidates, I assure you both will lose. The SE shouldn't be insulting people that will give them the presidency if they truely want to be voted.

Nchenches:
APC is an ethnoreligious political party. Even you know that. Because of that, APC is most likely to die after Buhari.

PDP instead is not based on ethnoreligious interest.

Hmmmm

You guys don't learn and continue to misconstrue what politics is. There is nothing like ethnoreligious political party, there is only common interest political struggle. The politics in Nigeria is "rub my back, I rub your back".

Did northerners vote Obasanjo or not?
Did northerners vote Goodluck or not?
Are they Muslims?

Tinubu has rubbed Buhari's back. Now its time for Buhari to rub Tinubu's back. That alliance has the backing of the entire north and SW putting the scale 4-2 in favour of APC.

Who in the SS or SE has done anything close to that to deserve the APC ticket. You know there is none.

kimjongJezebel:
Osinbajo that has been lying and defending Buhari's catastrophic regime more than anyone else? All these propaganda won't take anyone anywhere. Since 1999, Obasanjo from SW has ruled for 8 years and Osibanjo is now on his 2nd term as VP also from the SW while we Niger Delta only has a single term and nothing for SE yet some SW people still want to rule in 2023?

It's either Niger Delta complete their terms in 2023, SE is given the chance or else North go rule tire be that nah

Politics is not a game of rights, its a game of alliances and numbers.

This is APC oh. The SE and SS don't support APC and you want APC to pick a candidate from there. You know it won't happen.

omanzo02:
Honestly, getting more visitors or squatters is not an excuse to demand nor a reason to make all room ensuite mandatory to attract potential renters.
Like I mentioned earlier a 2or3 bedroom apartment don't require more than 1 bathroom and 2 toilets to function and guarantee comfort/privacy for all permanent or temporary occupants.

Who said anything about mandatory?.

Its always a landlord's choice to build what is affordable.

omanzo02:
It's Dutch not German! Lol
You mean to be telling me Nigerians value privacy more than other part of the world? Please, let not overrate ourselves, we are very good at rigid solutions and wastage.
From your sum up it will be a complete waste of time to make you see things from a philosophical and flexible creative idea behind functionalities and usefulness.

#Peace

Yes we do for one obvious reason, a Nigerian will get more visitors and squatters than most places in the world because of our 1culture and poverty.

I have 4 sisters-in-law with my wife being the eldest. I honestly can't remember all her aunts by name or location. My house accommodates at least one of them each month.

99% of all visitors to my house are females and friends or relatives of my wife, how comfortable do you think I will be when all these friends and family of my wife are in my house without a second or guest toilet?

I had a Romanian expat bosses, most over 65, their homes are mostly 2 bedroom flats. Their cars not bigger than a Kia Rio. Most have 1-2 grown up children both with grand kids. They never gather under one roof or any of the children's. They go on vacations, visiting resorts, hotels and the likes. Every one on his bills. These men told us they cannot imagine the day their children will ask for money. Even if they will consider, it will be formal with signatures.

This subject was brought up on a salary day (when mobile banking wasn't a thing), my colleagues all took time from office to deposit monies to relatives. They just couldn't understand why "we were giving away our hard earned money".

That's the way they are, no free money or privileges but here, you see grand parents in the house of start ups.

CYBERWEAVER:
Hi Car Gurus, checking updates and post always on Nairaland Auto page I discovered that Nigeria used Honda cars are extremely affordable to which I don't know reason behind it, I would like the Auto Gurus to throw more light on why Hondas are so affordable must especially Nigeria used because I am personally considering Honda City or I-robot because of the interior.

Yes, some of the price looks too good to be true.

The only reason is that majority of Nigerians feel a Toyota is king and Honda get K-leg. As such Toyota will become over priced due to demand while Honda becomes cheap due to surplus.

The real value for money is buying a Honda.

Good luck

I caused a major rift.

I was made head boy while dating SS1 girl. One of my female classmates was hoodwinked into seducing me till I broke off with the SS1 girl.

It was a war of my classgirls against every girl on school grounds.

It’s common to see automatic transmission fluid (ATF) used in place of power steering fluid known as SF, but is this safe? In order to understand this better we have to know the functions of these fluids in both the power-steering system and transmission system. Any vehicle with a hydraulic power-steering system needs power steering fluid. It works with the power steering pump to make turning the steering wheel smoother. Although the power steering has its unique properties, but there is a reason why ATF remains popular. We will compare the various properties of these fluids to fully understand why they are both important.

Please follow the link below to read more:
https://www.spotdem.com/2020/09/26/is-it-right-to-use-atf-as-substitute-for-power-steering-fluid/

The main issue is viscosity.

PSF is thicker than ATF. PSF is subjected1 to higher pressure which means higher temperatures than ATF, so PSF needs to be able to maintain its viscosity with increased temp.

ATF will work but because of heat expect rapid wear and tear when the heat makes it too light to protect moving parts.

bixton:
Not only cheap because of terrain but there's no such thing as matching ground/settlement in the north from community youths and chiefs to the best of my knowledge........

So true.

I worked on 2 FG projects in a South South state, one was cripple by brazing corruption and greed and the other one never even made it to the site because the compensation claims were mor1e than the N2 billion cost of the project.

When the project was awarded and site surveyed, by the time the contractor arrived the site, it was a "fake" graveyard with hundreds of tombstones and building foundations. Each one was a potential claim for compensation, class action lawsuit or means of violence q( my colleague has a big scar on his forehead to testify).

Even a church collected a large compensation, turn around to build a new mighty auditorium in the same location, then hired a good lawyer who sued government for N2billion compensation.

If you talk, they will say na our oil money. Meanwhile, they keep pocketing project money while the northerners keep building roads and almajiri schools. These same people will still say, they are using our oil money do develop the north despite the 13% derivation, NDDC, Ministry of Niger Delta and Social responsibility by the oil companies.

nams77:
You are right though.

Op, why don't you share some of plans and schematics here.
I believe some folks might have one or two assistance or corrections to do.


But I have a little problem. And that problem is your motivation for taking on this project.

You seem to be propelled by the support you will get. I don't think you have done any detailed groundwork.
Goodluck tho

Its like Op saying he wants to marry Obama's daughter.

I will first ask him if he has met her and how does he intend to do it.

Op basically said nothing yet.

You dont need to rubbish another's man business, i only comment based on the result I got and if you have used it before pass your comment instead of bad mouthing my comment....some people sha....isssh

Were you paid to testify on the product? Why is the business important to you when you are not the owner.

I personally cannot imagine how that product will work without causing other issues that may not be immediate.
