Computers / Re: Post Your Laptop Problems Here For Free Advice. by akininNC(m): 11:26pm On Dec 07, 2009 |
I am having a problem on my Toshiba satellite running Vista. I have a problem with the task bar freezing. I need to restart all the time by clicking on the bottom of the screen. It says that windows has stopped working and then I have to restart it to get it to start working again. Any help is greatly appreciated. |

@Kobojunkie Although banks are private entities, they are regulated by the federal govt,so they have to abide by the laws set forth by the govt. The same thing happens here in the US. The federal reserve here can go in to any bank and close it down if the deem it to be insolvent. |

Investment / Re: Stock Market Tips For Nigerians by akininNC(m): 3:57pm On Nov 06, 2008 |
Looks like the market is starting to show some signs of recovery. IMHO, most of the downward trend in the market was because of all the new investors that came aboard in the last couple of years, they got spooked very easily. The market is a long term investment and not a get rich quick scheme. Hope people have learned their lesson. Most of these companies still have strong fundamental and will rebound in the long run. |

quote "According to him, “Eventually, I am sure the crisis will trickle down here because even if the product that has caused them problems abroad was never sold here, because they are in trouble now, they are reducing all the lines of credit they used to make available to Africa". How low does the stock market have to go before he realizes that it has trickled down to Nigeria? |

Travel / Re: Building A Rapid Mass Transit System (Metro-Rail) In Lagos by akininNC(m): 10:20pm On Nov 01, 2008 |
@topic While mass transit is a highly commendable project, we cannot embark on any of these ideas until an honest tax policy is in place, ie sales and income tax. We are still of the belief in Nigeria that the Govt should pay for all our needs but we fail to see that the Govt needs our capital to fund these massive projects. Unfortunately we have seen what the Govt does when they have access to huge capital, so we are back to square one. I wish I had a solution! |

Autos / Re: Mercerdes Benz Ml 320 At Unbelievable Price! by akininNC(m): 5:28pm On Oct 27, 2008 |
@sdbaba, Do not waste your time getting in into a verbal altercation with this chap. I actually blame the seller rather than you. Price the vehicle what you think it is worth and hold your ground. Although there are circumstances where you would be willing to listen to some offers because the vehicle has been in your possession for too long. I for one believe that dealers that overprice their vehicle are doing themselves a disservice. Price it fairly and allow room for little negotiation and move on. |
Family / Re: A Racial-marriage Problem! by akininNC(m): 5:17pm On Oct 27, 2008 |
spoony: Thank you spoony, this has always been my contention with all these foreign women that marry Nigerian men, do not paint the whole culture with a single brush. As with any society there will always be individual who refuse to confirm with the norm. That does not make the rest of us bad. |
Autos / Re: Mercerdes Benz Ml 320 At Unbelievable Price! by akininNC(m): 3:30am On Oct 27, 2008 |
@sdbaba We all want a good deal on a car but there is a fine line between asking and making an offer that might be considered insulting. If you are looking to spend about 1mil, would it not make sense to look at something closer to that price. Just my 2 cents |

@youngmill and godalone Children, to the best of my knowledge this is an adults only forum please act like one. |
Autos / Re: Chassis Number Or VIN Is Recommended On Every Listing by akininNC(m): 2:25pm On Oct 23, 2008 |
@Babyjinx While I appreciate your adult approach to the situation, it does take two to tango, I believe some of your comment should also be directed to the esteemed inspired and all his other aliases. His refusal to show some level of humility in any of his posting does leave a lot to be desired. @ Ziontrain You have fought the good fight but it does get to a point of diminishing returns. But the issue should still be brought up from time to time because this thread gets new uninformed buyers all the time. |

Email me at akin1331 at hotmail dot com. I will need full name, approx when he lived in Chicago and any other info you might have and age as well. |

Family / Re: How Can I Change My Surname Legally? by akininNC(m): 12:19am On Oct 11, 2008 |
Can I ask why you want to give yourself all the headache. It is possible, you have to go to court to have it legally changed and then you also have to take out a newspaper ad. Thats the way it works here. As far as passport and all legal tender you have to carry all that paperwork with you since you are not native to that country. It is a hassle. |
Family / Re: I Need Your Help And Honest Advice by akininNC(m): 12:10am On Oct 11, 2008 |
Thanks Leilah, with age comes a little wisdom and I think I am little bit older than most of these posters. We should not confused a scorned woman with a concerned woman. I hope you have had a chance to have your heart to heart with your hubby and he is receptive to your ideas. Speaking of African men, how about Obama and his prospects. The McCain camp is throwing everything at him. I wonder if Obama has to do dishes? |
Family / Re: I Need Your Help And Honest Advice by akininNC(m): 9:37pm On Oct 09, 2008 |
@ Maxell My point exactly, if you believe something will happen then it will, because you will see things that are not there. If you believe in your marriage then it should not matter that it is a Nigerian union or not. You have so much more to worry keeping a marriage together than creating more wahala for yourselves. Work on your marriage not you naija man! |
Family / Re: I Need Your Help And Honest Advice by akininNC(m): 8:18pm On Oct 09, 2008 |
@ Iceblue It is difficult to be married to anyone whether you are naija or from mars. What bothers me is the view she has that the problem is because she is married to a Nigerian. You could have the same conversation if he was from another country, it is not a nigerian issue. 50% of marriages in the US end in divorce, are we going to blame them because of their culture? MARRIAGE IS DIFFICULT. I have to agree with her in some sense because she is married to a Nigerian hence her views are skewed towards that viewpoint. But all I am saying is that she should take the time to learn, try to learn from older Nigerian wives in her community and she will go a long way to having a happy and successful union. @osisi The trick to freezing anything is to make sure you remove as much air as possible prior to freezing if you plan on freezing for a long period. By removing, you limit freezer burn as well flavor contamination |
