Burnt screen connecting ribbon caused from overheating. Though newer models are less likely to see it. It is very common from s20 to s22. It's not just Samsung that has the issue. In some countries you get a free screen repair. I guess they haven't mastered the OLED and AMOLED screen tech on phones fully. Just avoid overheating your phone for too long and it will be fine.

It is not possible. I have a friend who is your situation. She had to take a loan from her sister who works in the UK and borrow money from friends. You can work more than 20 hours, but that illegal. Jobs are not easy to get as before. Especially with the new work sponsorship ruling. If you have a legitimate work available there, then do some calculations using the 20 hours a week limit and see what you can afford with it. My friend is lucky to have free accomodations and not spend on food since she staying with her sister.

This tax thing will cause serious issue in Nigeria by next year.

The guys involved here are even oil and gas workers who are relatively richer than most citizens.

By time the real struggling Nigerians especially business owners and end-price consumers begin to feel the weight of Tinubu's law, I hope serious uprising will not occur.

Nigeria needs a reset.

The very annoying and obvious thing is that the collective monies and wipped off the hands of suffering people are handed over to governors and politicians who keeps buying properties in UAE, US etc. So sad.

Every obvious you can't comprehend a write up. It clearly stated the workers are protesting that the 150k removed from their salary is not getting to the federal government because no one has a TIN number.

I'm just wondering - how is this newsworthy?

Everyone started somewhere.

Nairaland is a forum and not a news broadcasting cooperation

ElSudani:
The problem is from the centralized structure of the country and the erroneous belief that only leaders from our region can care about our issues.
The British left us with the best option but we messed it up. Rather than accept this error we continue to look for different solutions that may or may not work.
Real workable federalism is the way to go with more power and control to the federating units.

The indifference in the country is too many. Every zone, every religion, every tribe all have different political goals. Even within the tribes you still have same issues. We need restructuring on all levels. If it's not possible then breaking the nation is better.

Nigeria won't move forward until we stop this tribal mentality towards leadership. It's a mental slavery that we created for ourselves, same goes for zone and religion ticket. Let's vote for individuals due to their individual qualities not tribal, not religion, not geographical zone. Whoever brought this idea of politics into Nigeria did is dirty badly.

Iceland is green and Greenland is cold. It's even a geography joke on the naming of the countries to confuse people.

Why is Datti crying like a canary bird since Peter joined ADC?

No vp ticket for him, simple as that. It's a game of interest.

Nigeria youths are not ready. This people in this party are just angry cause corruption isn't favouring them now, they can offer nothing. No top politician currently can move Nigeria forward. This one's shouting atiku, obi, tinubu just wants their tribes man in power, they want someone of the same religion as them in power. If you want to know the flaw with democracy have a 5 minute conversation with the average voter. Voting should be a skill not a right. We should leave this voting to individuals that are not sentimental, individuals that are not afraid to ask the contestants real questions, individuals who can smell the lies coming from their mouths, individuals that can not be bought. Everyone in this picture, including everyone in APC and LP can't move Nigeria forward. After tinubu will rule someone else will use tinubu to campaign and enter office, just 2 years into that one tenure people will start crying again, politicians will start insulting each other, decamping will happen again, and we the people will dance to their tune.

helinues:
How much was egg in 1999? Can't some of you guys come up with superior excuse in justifying why this government is a failure instead of irrelevant thing. Is the minimum wage same as in 2010?

A white YouTuber once said Africa nations were given independence so the world will not know which western country was pillaging them. Aside from that there has been a global inflation forever, a quick Google search will show people how things are going up yearly and how economic experts are making money by betting against the world's economy. We need true independence to move forward as a nation.

You really think they left the enriched Uranium there, for Trump to come bomb it ?

For those that dont understand how nuclear weapons are made, the main ingredient is the 400kg of enriched Uranium believed to be owned by Iran.

Once Iran was able to hide this 400kg of enriched Uranium.....You can Bomb the whole Iran. It doesn't stop there ability to make Nuclear Bombs.

My bet is USA striked nothing, the Iranians didnt survive 2500 years by being stupid.

If the USA really destroyed the enriched uranium, there should be detectable and measurable radioactive leaks in the air in those places....Guess what none reported so far !!!!

You are wasting your time trying to educate our fellow nigerians. Hollywood movies have finished their brains. It was even shown that the underground facility has bunker bursters deflectors. They did not design the structure flat. The mountain also provides protection. Then lastly, China has helped Iran secretly moved the missiles and warheads to an undisclosed location.

Rapmoney:
My candid advice for men who are 35+ is to avoid Genz girls by all means. These category of girls do not actually think the way you think, neither do they see what you see. Their mentality and yours is so wide apart like Africa and Australia. Your plans and vision don't matter to these people. They are only concerned about the present; what they can collect and move ahead with alacrity.

Make you no go use your 7 months salary take sponsor holiday trip for one girl wey go leave you within a twinkling of an eye.

Real talk

Ibos definition of them being favoured is a president who abandons the entire nation to focus on them. Look at he federal allocation given to South East vs what they generate. They rather claim victim mentality than face reality. They claim to marginalized while doing everything to isolate themselves. Why is it that most successful ibo entrepreneurs rather invest elsewhere? Before you blame someone first look into yourself. While your finger at someone the remaining ones are pointing back at you.

Other customers may not be comfortable with her being with their children. Na Nigeria we dey. Most of you commenting up there won't even want that child near your children.

If you don't want to see things you don't like, eat at home. The public space is meant for the public. We should stop feeling entitled when we are out. I don't feel disgusted nor pity when I see disabled people in public. They don't want our pity, they want to be treated as normal people and not reminded they are disabled. I know some will start begging instead of getting a job. But let's encourage the ones that don't.

The major difference was we used natural resources to calculate money strength then, now we rely on Fiat to determine money strength. Fiat in reality is nothing but a scam to hide the true dollar value and suppress Africa even more.

In Nigeria most things are above the average man's means. Does she want them to live in a mud house? This simply shows how overpriced rent are. Most real estate agency are after yahoo boys not the actual working man. We need low income housing in Nigeria badly.

jhydebaba:
Petro is not expensive in Nigeria but it could be cheaper based on the fact that we have crude oil and refine locally now.

Capitalist must make massive profits. They always price things on high they feel people can pay. It's one thing killing us in Nigeria. Western countries were already developing nicely before capitalism took over. We started our country straight into the jaws of capitalism and we know how some of our folks love money.

I don't like this man but I believe no one can solve Nigeria problems with one term of ruling. At least he is trying when it comes to projects and disbursement of funds. He needs to tackle high cost of living, insecurity and poor road networks. It would be nice if we actually had competent police force for ones.

Emotion keh, its not today I've been using Samsung phones.

Being a Samsung user doesn't mean much if you don't know anything about the hardware workings. Samsung wasn't the only phone with the issue. It was a new phone screen tech at the time, one plus was severely plagued by it. They have figured the problem, hence it isn't common in new current lineup of phones. There is even a YouTube video explaining how the ribbons burn off.

trentslawson:
Because it happened to your phone doesn't mean it'll happen to all s22 phones, its how you use it. The Software UI 7.0. is the reason for this, im not a heavy phone user, stressing a phone will only cause it to increase.

It doesn't matter how you use it. Your screen connecting ribbon is gone. It is a popular issue with s20 to s22. It was fixed from s23 upwards. The software update isn't the issue. The issue is the ribbon burns when exposed to heat. Updates and prolonged usage heats up the phone. Samsung did a free screen change in Asia, Europe and South America when the issue was discovered. Let's use facts to talk not emotions.

trentslawson:
That's on who want to fix it, its not like its totally blind

Sadly it will go totally blind, happened to my s22. You either try and fix it and sell it or lower your value. You might be lucky to see 150k for it. Extremely lucky if you can find someone with Samsung s22 with a dead panel and working screen.

The United nations also said it - India is poorer than the poorest African nations.

Watch this video by an Indian analyst

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4jSp8l172s

Leave them to lie to themselves. I do work from home jobs, we have Indians in our groups and they tell the truth. UN data that is just pure western propaganda. The video you shared is one of many. Delusional Indians will say you are a Pakistan supporter when you tell them the truth. I love how in 2025 they are being exposed.

DeathParade:
Open the UN Development Programe's 2022 report on a multidimensional poverty index.
If the deprivation is more than 50% , it is termed as extreme poverty.
If it is less than 50%, it is termed as poverty.

The 1% figure given by World Poverty Clock is of Extreme Poverty, not Poverty.

Know the difference. The data does not lie.





You have a bias and it shows. I presented hard data from reputable sources like UN, World Bank and World Poverty Clock.

You counter with some random video of some random commie economist. And you counter with fake Chinese propaganda about Apple's India move, which is debunked by a simple Google search on how many iPhones have been produced in India yoy this past decade. All based on videos.

You claim there are multiple videos. It is clear that you get your facts from youtube whereas I get them from actual reports by reputed institutions. Anybody with the bare minimum intellect knows which type of source is more trustworthy. I don't need to debate videos vs actual, verifiable UN and World Bank reports.

You try to set up a strawman argument claiming that "India was bragging about being at par with China" when neither I personally not the Government of India officially, EVER claimed anything like this.

It is amply clear to me that you are not interested in a serious discussion, you would rather push the agenda that feeds your confirmation bias. So I am not interested in engaging with you.

Lol, 🤣🤣 truth is too bitter for you to swallow. I showed you a video from an economist from India showing accurate data on the subject. You are quoting UN data that is known as bullshit. Multiple videos and articles of economist showing proof.Whatever you are smoking is the real deal. It got you all twisted up to a false reality. India government did indeed claim to be on par with China. It was what started the whole investigation in the first place. You either a troll or someone who is delusional. Either way you definitely screwed. 😂

DeathParade:
UN development program report on Multi Dimensional Poverty Index 2022, India lifted 415 Million people out of multidimensional poverty in last 15 years alone.

Today, only 1% of Indians live in extreme poverty as per World Poverty Clock
https://worldpoverty.io/

A significant number of you folks are woefully misinformed about India it seems. Maybe a product of confirmation bias.

You are the one greatly misinformed.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4jSp8l172s?si=zFWG9QSV7nnhbwEb

You can watch an Indian economist summary of India for yourself. Throughout 2025 people have been exposing the reality of India. They were bragging to be on par with China. Last year Apple tried moving production to India and India failed in spectacular fashion. Apple had to double down on manufacturing in China. There are multiple independent journalist videos showing the reality of India. The real India not put on paper.

90% of Indians live in poverty, that's over a billion people. That's more people than sub Sahara region of Africa which UN and WHO claims to be the world poorest regions. The GDP, net profit, gross profit of India poorest people is less than sub Sahara region. The country is filled with unhealthy outdated practices.

Qadaffi2idiamin:
Maybe you need to study more. Once nations start pulling the plug on paying for oil with the green it starts going down the hill. Once the gold bars owned by Germany and the rest including those stolen from Iraq en mass gets missing from Fort Knox, the dollar becomes the kwasha.

You think the US wants nations paying and doing business in greens because it's beautiful? Nah... it's because they understand the foundation of fiat. The banks or the reserve as you call it issue the paper but the real measure is in oil and gold now evolving into crypto currency like bitcoin which most government are buying without Apologies. Only these old buffoons in Nigeria that can't see tomorrow keep a restriction on it.

You are the one who needs to study more. Fiat was created in the 70s when USA oil and gold reserves couldn't sustain their economical growth and military expansion. Cryptocurrency is an offspring of Fiat. Bitcoin was meant to be revolution against the current IMF and FIAT banking system. But it ended up becoming a tool. Despite how cryptocurrency are advertise, one constant stats that has been shown is the high rate of poverty it has created during its wake. No new outlet take about the amount of money that has been lost to crypto, how easy it is to lose your wallet, how they make it impossible to recover your wallet. And how nothing is backing it. You think the Chinese government were stupid when they banned it from their country? What's backing it? Nothing other than trust me bro. And at their own convenience they drop and increase the currency when they want. Cryptocurrency has made more people poor than it made rich people, that's a system that does transfer of wealth, not make one.

ejieddy:
The day oil is priced by anything other than the dollar, you will see the dollar tumble. Why do you think the US is against BRICS and their plan for a unified currency? Why is the Donald courting the middle east ever so more?

You can check the Internet, FIAT system is what we have been using to determine currency strength. BRICS is a threat because they don't use dollar or swift payment system. BRICS is also a second market to Russia and China. USA is having an economy battle with both nations by placing sanctions on them, especially on Russia. BRICS doesn't recognize USA authority and ignore said sanctions. When USA stopped EU from buying Russia gas, India and China simply bought it and supplied it back to Europe. When USA tried to limit soy bean export to China, Brazil simply took over. During Joe Biden hostile last few months in power, China built an automated port in Peru worth $4 billion to prepare for Trump. That's the power of BRICS. It's destroying USA monopoly on the international market. Without USA monopoly, their true currency value will come out and their $35 trillion debt will more than double leaving to a civil war that expects say will lead to the country splitting up.

Qadaffi2idiamin:
Are you stoapit? US borrows based on economic indices, they have powers to print their currency without shrinking its value. Currency backed by oil and gold.

Ask yourself, what is backing the naira? Why borrow when the market is not driven by real investment from the inside rather jumping everywhere looking for foreigners to invest without developing the internal sectors. Omo make una dey use una head small nah.

Correction USA currency isn't backed by gold or oil. It hasn't been since the 70s. Also USA government doesn't print it's own currency. The federal reserve which is owned by the Rothschild family sells dollars to the USA government through bonds. Lastly the USA dollar value is determined by a FIAT system. Which is a trust system the USA created when they notice their gold and oil can not sustain their dollar value. The current currency market is regulated by FIAT and we are supposed to trust that $1 is really equal to 1700.

If Nigeria choose not to borrow like US and the Nig Government lives within it reach and revenue generated without borrowing will the country collapse?

It will, all so called first world country borrow. Nigeria debt rate is a mere child to what the western countries owe. No developing nation can sustain itself in a long run without borrowing. Especially one like Nigeria. We have a trade deficit, meaning on our import and export front we import way more than we export. As a result our budget is bigger than our internal generated revenue. When you have a trade deficit and revenue deficit, you either borrow or reduce your budget by cutting fundings to certain sectors. It's risky and mostly fails. Take Argentina for example, their current president tried to stop borrowing by cutting fundings and selling government assets so they become debt free, but now the economy is worse than it was. Even in USA you see Trump trying to cut spending only to be met with protest and low approval ratings. Now you have courts trying to revoke some of his executive power. When in truth USA debt hasn't been an issue cause of their military power. In UK we see something similar with the country having to rely to immigration to sustain itself. The NHS workforce is at 70% immigrants workers. It's either they sort immigrants or borrow more to hire and pay local workforce. Our solution is to start local industries, reduce importing on certain goods, cut spending ( certain ministries should be shut down permanently) reduce government salaries, reduce the numbers of SA a governor can have, permanently stop the ghost worker program, and most importantly practice maintenance culture. We can not be creating a new road to solve the issue of a poorly maintained existing road, it's cheaper to maintain roads than build new ones. We should also remove certain incentives from the house of Senate and house of reps.
