Nairaland / General / Slot Machine Error Makes Woman (believe She Is) $43 Million Richer. by aprokomania(m): 3:36am On Nov 02, 2016
Katrina Bookman thought she was the luckiest gamer ever, when her slot machine readings indicated she had won $42,949,672 at Resorts World Casino in ,Jamaica, Queens.
The excited winner even took a selfie with the slot machine which would have made her the largest winner in slot machine history.
"I can't even describe the feeling. It's like my whole body just got numb," Bookman said.
However, when she returned the next day to claim her earnings, her hopes were dashed on the rocks as an employee unceremoniously announced to her that her winnings were as a result of a machine malfunction.
According to the New York gaming commission however, she actually won a whooping $2.25.
Her claims have been looked into by the commission and verified to be as a result of a malfunction.
The casino however offered to pay her actual winnings of $2.25 as well as a complimentary steak dinner, but Ms Katrina has hired an attorney, suing the casino to pay out the maximum allowed by law, $6,500.
The erring machine has since been repaired and put back to use.

And when she gave birth to Angelo Konecki, her son, she faced a new low, as she continuously battled postpartum depression, the reason she admits shes afraid of having another child.

Business / Re: Air Cargo Exports Up 39% As Nigerians Cash In On Weak Naira by aprokomania(m): 11:52am On Oct 22, 2016
Mayflowa:
This is very good. But it looks as if a few Nigerians are reaping the benefit of this new opportunities. It is time for our youth to understand farm produce, processing and exporting as a way to increase their earning power. It will be nice if some youth also go into research on things to export and how to go about it and charge consultation training to those that are interested in the trade.

Lastly, it is time for every Nairaland to study AGOA (Africa Growth and Opportunity Act) and to visit their office in Abuja. Here, all the agricultural products that American government wants to buy from Nigeria are listed. Sadly, we have not be able to meet up to 20% of what American are willing to buy from us. Time to seize opportunity friends!

This is American Law signed since 2000 and renewed till 2025. Goodluck Nairalanders

Nairaland / General / Most popular words on Nairaland and their meanings by aprokomania(m): 12:15pm On Oct 20, 2016
Whether you are a newbie on Nairaland, or a hardened member, there may be some words or phrases used by the members here that have had you scratching your head in bewilderment.
worry no more, as today, I present the first part of the compendium of common words used on Nairaland as well as their meanings.

1 Afonja, a group of people residing in the south western part of Nigeria, usually noted for academic achievement and financial prosperity.

2 Ban, the punishment given to any member of the forum for any real or perceived wrongdoing, or when Lalasticlala wakes up on the wrong side of bed.

3 Bot, evil minions employed by the oga at the top (seun) to catch you when you go against any rules.

4 Mod, the stars of Nairaland, they have the power to and undo, don't offend these guys.

5 Supermod, Higher powers of Nairaland. the rock stars. they can make that carefully crafted post remain in writers limbo to be viewed by you and your mom, or shoot it to front page, to be seen by millions.

6 FTC, literarily means first to comment, (usually Etisalat subscribers) these guys lie awake all night and put a fullstop after every post that looks promising with the hope that it will gain favor from the supermods, and then they can scream I'm FTC, as if that helps the recession.

7 FP, the spot every Nairaland member has wet dreams about. when your post gets to Front Page, you have achieved a lot on your bucket list, and you can die in peace.

8 Igbo An industrious lot from the east, characterised by a compressed cranium, and an unexplainable love for money, I will stop here to avoid a ban.

9 Arewa, Northerners. Period.

10 Vaseline crew, Pervs lurking around Nairaland waiting for any hint of their sexual fantasies to be enacted so they can...

11 NCAN, name checkers association of Nairaland. their duty is to collate, identify and neutralize members of every ethnic region but theirs.

12 OP, original poster, someone who is really good at copying and pasting news from somewhere in the hope of it hitting FP.

13 Zombie, An apologist of a certain political party.

14 Wailer, a supporter of the other party.

BONUS WORDs

Seun, the brain behind Nairaland, he's a shy guy so you won't hear from him unless he wants to release a new set of rules.

Lalasticlala, a random guy who's in love with snakes. lol. just kidding. a supermod who's in love with snakes. if you want to hit FP just add snake to your post, e.g, BUHARI VISITS GERMANY, SEE THE BIG SNAKE HE KILLED... lol.

Feel free to add yours as this list is by no means exhaustive.

Health / Re: Pepsi To Cut Down Sugar From Its Drinks by aprokomania(m): 5:57pm On Oct 17, 2016
I watched an interview recently with the woman who is the CEO of PepsiCo. this reduction in sugar is a really ambitious move that cuts across not only the drink Pepsi but a range of their other products. in developed countries where obesity is the norm rather than the exception, this move will be more appreciated. in a country like Nigeria however, people are hardly aware of their health requirements as the market is driven by unintelligent consumerism.
Kudos on this bold move PepsiCo.

Actually, whites name things after themselves as opposed to blacks who name themselves after something or a phrase. For instance, the ball point pen commonly referred to as the "biro" was invented by Laszlo Biro and that's why people refer to it as a "biro" same goes for mecedez(the wife) and benz(the inventor) as well as soichiro honda wis the founder of honda cars etc. Also, some names originate from their ancestors who were once know to be in the business of whatever their name is. Like the German name "Kleinwaechter" which translates to "watch repairer" was the business their ancestors were into.

In their world the man gives meaning to the name and not the other way around
so I guess bushes were named after George Bush,
stones were named after Perry Stone
and water was named after Summer Drinkwater?
after naming summer after her too.

Politics / Idia Ize-Iyamu's Convoy Attacked In Iyamho, Edo by aprokomania(m): 4:54am On Sep 21, 2016
THE convoy of Dr Idia Ize-Iyamu, the wife of the PDP governorship candidate was yesterday attacked in Iyamho, Estako West local government area of Edo State allegedly by APC supporters.

Dr Idia Ize-Iyamu, however, escaped unhurt. A statement in Benin yesterday by the State Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr. Chris Nehikhare, said the incident happened at Jattu market when the PDP women were campaigning from shop to shop educating the people on the contents of the PDP manifesto, tagged SIMPLE AGENDA and how to vote right during the election.

He added that during the enlightenment campaign, the market women were heard chanting “PDP!” and “Change the Change!” and this was said to have infuriated the APC thugs who destroyed several cars in Dr. Idia’s convoy.

This led to violence erupting in the market with market women burning any broom in sight, he added.

However, Philip Shaibu, the APC running mate in swift reaction distanced himself from the issue as alleged by the PDP, saying that he is not known to have history of violence.

Shaibu said he and other APC faithful were on a road show tagged: “Sweep them away” when the mayhem unfolded as those he claimed as PDP thugs sighted APC supporters sweeping the Jattu – Auchi road in Jattu market area and started throwing stones.
