Religion / Re: Share Your Dreams And The Holyspirit Will Help Interpret by Adebowale1616: 7:01am On Nov 01, 2020
Good morning sir, thanks for all the time.

Please help interpret this my dream sir.

What does it mean to be given medical drugs in the dream to swallow ?

Saw myself went to the hospital for treatment, I have forgotten what was wrong with me but not something serious in that dream....so the drugs given to me were sooo much that I had to split it into two to take them batch by batch.

After taking the first batch, I realized the second batch have to be splited into two again because it was just too much.....but I declined taking the rest that I can't take it any further cos it was too much for me. (Note: I also hate taking drugs in real life).

Also, during the time the doctor was attending to me, giving me those drugs, I saw my late dad being brought to the hospital too by my mum for treatment. They were being attended to at the other side, I was just looking at them from afar through one window from where I was seated.

Pls help interpret sir, thanks.

Good evening everyone, pls do anyone knows about "my savings plan basic with insurance cover" in Zenith bank ?

Pls how good is it and any risk involve ? Although i have been to the bank to make my enquiry but you know bank people are looking for their own customers, they might not disclose all what one should know.

I wanted to go for a fixed deposit before, but i was told they are not taking new fixed deposit for now, probably the interest is too low now.

Please i need urgent response on this.

And iam so sorry if i have deviated from the thread topic, thanks.

Please sir, what does it mean to see my late dad in the dream and he was shouting my name on top of his voice, I turned back to go and meet him, and he handed over to me a bucket of water to help him get water very close to where he was standing (can't remember if I had collected the bucket from him or about to collect it) before i woke up.

Note: My kid sister was seated very close beside where he was standing when he was calling me, but she didnt even move an inch to help him do what he was calling me to come and do for him.

If it is a Uk used, It is likely that it would not be the original windows that came with it, They would have already reloaded the windows Os into any version they desired, usually 64bit. Activate the windows and would have done the driver installations already for you. Some might have also helped you install some general apps or softwares like Microsoftword, excel, powerpoint vlc, adobe reader, chrome e.t.c

Alright thanks bro....all have already been installed as you have said.
Computers / Re: Post Your Laptop Problems Here And Get Solution To Fix It Yourself by Adebowale1616: 7:01pm On Jul 14, 2020
Adewale1603:
It depends on the laptop, Do you bought it brand new or Fairly Uk or Usa used laptop . If you bought it brand new it would come preinstalled with the windows Os, on first time powering on the laptop, you will just follow the instructions prompt on your screen to complete and activate your windows, some cases might require a one time selection of windows version either 64bit or 32bit to choose. You can connect your former hard disk drive from the old pc to your new pc to transfer all your data and files with an hard disk cable.


Ok thank you sir...... its a Uk used though.

You are better off buying laptops on eBay or Amazon than alixpress.

But please may I know reasons please ? Just for guidance

Hi all. My first time posting here.
I just want to put this information out here because it may be helpful to someone.

I lost my job during this pandemic,so I decided to buy a laptop at AliExpress to start small something online with my last card.

I bought a laptop at the rate of $240 with free shipping (juicy right?). Gtb charged 390/$ , so I paid the total of 93600. 5 days later, DHL sent a message with a link for a payment.

When I opened the link, I nearly collapsed. They were demanding 60k as Custom duty and tax. I later gathered my strength and emailed them, demanding to know how they calculated the charges. That was when I got the shock of my life grin. They said that they reassessed my goods at$1000 (Crazy right?)

That was how we started exchanging email upon email,they now demanded to see evidence of the $240. I now supplied them with bank charge, AliExpress email sent to me at the point of purchase, seller's invoice,the link to the store I bought the laptop (they can go and buy as well if e shock Dem grin) The bank charge, I made sure they saw my balance which is #435 grin.
So that they will know how broke I was grin

Well, after due consideration,my laptop was reassessed with the original price and the price fall yakata grin, I now paid18k7...

People of God,I'm happy to announce that I have received my lappy today.
Praise the Lord grin cheesy

Moral lesson: Sometimes,it is good to ask questions instead of swallowing everything thrown at us.
Onye ajuju anaghi efu uzo (person wey dey ask question,no dey miss road)

But please oo, the laptop you ordered what is the brand ? Because me I have not been seeing all these popular brands we know in Naija there o.

Make person no com order yeye brand wey be say u no go fit repair here in Nigeria or get access to its accessories. Abeg how u do am biko ?

What the specification of the system?

Its not as if I have seen one in particular, just thinking I should go for it since the Hp and Dell I have been seen doesn't meet my specs...my specs I have seen so far are far away higher than my budget...new ones.

But iam now thinking of going for UK used, most of them meet my specs with lesser prices, just that I dont know if uk used are also good because I av never bought anything UK used before, I do think they are always giving problems and doesnt last longer.
Computers / Re: Post Your Laptop Problems Here And Get Solution To Fix It Yourself by Adebowale1616: 6:30pm On Jul 10, 2020
My people I don come again o, make una help my laptop choosing career..lol

I wanted to go for new laptop but seems Iam just wasting my time searching, as most new ones I can afford doesn't meet my specs.

Now I have resolved in going for UK used but I have never bought anything UK used before, iam always skeptical about it that its always having fault, doesnt last longer, giving one problem or the other etc.

But pls my people, how true is this ? Those that have been using uk used, pls i believe they are also good ? pls make una help my fear and help me settle this matter...thanks


In short, I plan going for HP elitebook 820, 4gb/500gb, core i5. OR Hp probook 430 8gb/500gb

[Thanks so very much bro. You said if i order a phone through Dhl i will be charged custom fee, what about laptop, will i be charged custom fee as well on laptop ? ]

1. Of course it's pay before delivery, it's like buying on eBay and Amazon and expecting pay on delivery,lolll.
2. You can't be scammed cos Alixpress is serving as an escrow, the seller will only be paid after you received your item.
3. See number 2. You will be refunded in full if your item fails to arrive after 90days of shipment.
4. It's a global pandemic, logistics is definitely affected even with DHL but you should receive your item within 6 weeks using DHL. Note if you are buying a phone and you ship via DHL, you might be charged custom fee.[/quote]

Oh, thanks so very much for this analysis. I appreciate. But I still need some enlightenment with the below:

1. Is payment on both Ali express and Alibaba strictly based on pay before delivery ?

2. And If yes, pls how secured ? I want to believe the marketplace is free of scammers ?

3. And if not free of scammers, what are the signs to know the genuine suppliers there ?

4. And please hope nothing like shipping is stopped for now because of covid 19 ?.Hope no delay in delivery cos of that, especially if I will use DHL

Please I await your response. Thanks.



AliExpress is for retailers. You can buy minimum of one quantity of a product to several quantities. However being retail, it's usually of higher price than Alibaba.

Alibaba is strictly wholesale. If you are those that buy items in containers, Alibaba is for you. The sellers there sell their products on MOQ (minimum order quantity) that you must meet for them to consider selling to you.

Some sellers on Alibaba can ship to you one unit as test sample, even for free. However some Nigerians have been found out to misuse that opportunity. They go to different sellers and get samples of the same item for free with false promises of coming back to buy in wholesale. If you visit 100 sellers of the same product with each offering you free samples, you can tell the money to be made selling that. As a result, most sellers seem uncomfortable with giving out free samples.[/quote]

Thanks so much bro.




The processor, go for an intel core i3, i5, i7 of more recent generation, 8gb ram, support for 16gb maximum, ddr3l or ddr4 ram, intel integrated graphics or Amd radeon graphics, 6gb dedicated memory, depending on your budget, 500gb SSD drive, instead of Hard disk. 2 usb 3.0 ports, 2 usb 2.0 ports, hdmi port, e.t.c 14 or 15.6 inches screen size of higher resolutions, 1920 x 1080p. recommended brand Hp or Dell. These are two good brands so far[/quote]

Thanks so much bro.



Hello Adebowale1616,

Most important thing is what do u intend to do with the system (i.e Are u into graphics, or u use heavy apps like building tech apps... Then u need a laptop with a higher features).
back to your question..
1. HDD size(Determine what u can store on your laptop).
2. Thickness or size (some people prefer slim laptops).
3. RAM
4. Processor (Core I7, Core I5 or core I3)
5. Screen quality.
6. I prefer Hp or dell. it's accessories are easily accessible (personal opinion though).

If you are around Nasarawa and it's environs I can get a good one for you.

Have a nice day , Adebowale ki ade pe lo ori[/quote]
