Greystone: Changed rings? You need a new engine Na wa. Just learning this today. So this 'ringing' is really bad news? Yet the way it's promoted by automechs |

SarkinYarki: yes, I am just tired of Nigerians wanting a 10 year old car to behave like a brand new one , most engine have a life span of 150 thousand kilometres and anything agreed that is a gift It depends on usage and maintenance. Mine is just above 300,000km, and still going strong. |

1forall: Engine overhauling (ringing) is a delicate job which most times doesn't gives perfect results. An experienced auto mechanic (a banker and engineer with a decent auto workshop business) once told me that auto engineers abroad do not 'ring' engines because the variables to control for perfection are too many, and the slightest error can result in a poor job. Talking about things as minor as ambient temperature, dust, technique, quality of parts etc.
Think of that in the context of our 'professional' Nigerian auto mechanics!
Your car engine has inevitably lost some compression (power/pressure) due to the work done, thus the engine is not producing as much torque (rotational force) as it was originally designed to. Therefore when you switch on your AC - which is basically adding the AC compressor load to the engine - the engine struggles. It may not be such a problem if you're on the highway but will be more noticeable in traffic with AC on.
In summary, your car engine will last longer if you don't use the AC on it anymore, but even at that I think you should prepare your mind for engine or car replacement in the near future. Interesting. When you talk of ringing, that is changing the Piston rings, right? I never knew it was such a big deal |

Personally I don't want SARS to end. I agree with Reno that it probably should be tested in an area first.
Yes, there are certainly bad eggs and overzealous ones among them. They should be shown the way out.
But based on my experience in Benin, how because of SARs one could begin to sleep with eyes closed, then disbanding would be a wrong move. |

awesomeJ: Reserves now at $44.34bn (as at Mar 28), Brent has gained more than 2% today. it's currently trading above $69 and may cross the $70 mark before the week is out.
So, there's some pretty huge comfort for the MPC currently. My Outlook for this quarter is for T-bills discount to be between 11.5 and 13.2% for the 364 day papers.
The only major factor that may alter the market now is if there's a change in the CBN's leadership by June.
364 days at 12.8% is 14.66% yield 182 days at 12% is 12.77% yield and 91days at 10.5% is 10.75%
MMFs at 12.5-13% are available alternatives for the short term. Those funds locked in some instruments already at 15%, so they should be able to support their current yield levels for at least one more quarter.
Happy New month to us all, welcome to Q2. Thanks for this. Expecting more of such analysis. |

joshaac: Inconclusive news, the reason why their were bar from entry was because of their dressing. It has being the doctrine of the church for all women coming to the church must cover their hair but unfortunately for them they did not do that so the pastor refused to bend the rules. It is not the issue of the ladies in question are from Catholic Im surprised o. I thought Catholics dress well |

SjMbula: the Church doctrine supersedes love that Jesus Christ teaches us? Really? What of when Jesus chased out the money changers from the Temple? You don't condone people who deliberately flout the law. |

Mutemenot: Some people's mouth odour originate from their stomach. So brushing or not, It has come to stay .. Totally true. It is also known to be genetic and can run in some families. Brushing no matter how frequently will not cure it. Lastly some illnesses eg infected tonsils, diabetes etc, can cause mouth odour - though in the case of the latter, the smell is not too offensive. |
Health › Re: How To Deal With Bad Breath by alezzy13: 4:28pm On Apr 01, 2019 |
martineverest: number one reason why mouth smells is failure to scrap the whitish layer of the tongue.most people brush only their teeths without scrapping/brushing the white layer of the tongue...... don't forget to detox daily... that's very important Which be detox? |

unite4real: Meanwhile advice to anyone wishing to go longer tenor for Treasury bills to hold his breath at these times. Let's continue to observe the demand and supplies of the OMO until those heavy liquid in the economy that saw the last few offers over subscribed begin to get diversified. The reduction in MPR by 50 basis point might help this spread in its own little way. Let's keep our fingers crossed. Many thanks for this. I was actually considering 360 but rates not too encouraging. It think it's about 12% down from high of almost 15% just a few weeks back |

hollywater: She never reminded for money, she only answer a question, which every good thinking Nigeria knows is the right thing to do, if not that the family of that small girl are greedy. Are you sure? One version even claims she was demanding the banks to open a joint account with her and Success so she could have access to the funds. This was after she had allegedly received about 500k from the mother. |

greatnaija01: she could have been a VOICE to more children but ended her heroism when she demanded to be PAID. Really? I'm not aware of this. If true, it very bad . EDIT: I just did a Google search of her name and the the associated stories are not inspiring at all. It's all 'scam', 'greed', 'slayqueen'. Sad indeed |
Phones › Re: So Glo Network Was Loved Like This by alezzy13: 8:34am On Mar 31, 2019 |
lanre88: I used to complain bitterly about slow Glo network on my former phone which isn't compatible with Glo 4G.
Fast forward to last 2 weeks when I got samsung S9+ with a Glo 4G sim, I am just experiencing more like the speed I got while in the UK on Glo. Streaming effortlessly, live radio etc.
Before you complain about the Glo network, please get yourself the 4G compatible phones first before you complain.
This is the best network in Nigeria with a very lovely data rates.
Nice one Glo. ��� Is there really any added advantage of the 4G? With my 3G I stream HD videos seamlessly. |
Phones › Re: So Glo Network Was Loved Like This by alezzy13: 8:32am On Mar 31, 2019 |
No wonder. Glo used to be very poor in my area, Benue, but over the past few weeks, theyve improved substantially. Moreover thier rates are still the lowest |

obailala: N9billion is chicken change to all the mainstream banks in Nigeria. But that doesnt mean they would pay it without a fight; these banks wouldnt even pay poor customers 10k without a battle, let alone billions. But for anyone to actually think a N9b payoff or fine can get any mainstream bank in Nigeria distressed, let alone one of the biggest in the league (GTB), then such a person must really be swimming in deep ignorance. You miss the point. Of course we all know they can shell out that amount without a sweat, but what happens thier cooperate image? Entities like GTB that rely heavily on investors and depositors confidence simply cannot afford to be emeshed in such trending stories like these. For instance,.what happens if everyone starts panic withdrawal? |
