Travel / Re: Do I Need To Quarantine If I Travel Back To Nigeria Now? by ArewaTech1(m): 11:18am On Nov 04, 2021
Juoflife1:
Fully vaccinated or not, you must present a negative test result taking within 72hrs. Go to nitp.ncdc.gov.ng and register your details..

I know about that 39500 paid to ncdc.

What I want to know is; if I have the covid negative result given within 72hrs of flight will I be exempted from that 7day or weeks quarantine?

Thank you.

HRprof:


No more quarantine all you need do is to fill a form online and pay for covid test when you arrive you will do your test 7 days after your arrival. The form can be filled at the airport when you arrive

I got fully vaccinated here (2 shots) in India (our Uni offered) and I know there's 40k that we pay to NCDC before flying in. and emirates don't allow people here to get on a flight without negative results.

Do I still need to test after the I'll do before the flight?

Thank you

We don't do that here if you have enough money.

The problem is I am kind of short on cash this time around. I know if I fly in through Lagos there's no need for that... but that will cost me more as I need to book hotel to stay and another flight ticket to my state with excess luggage.

Juoflife1:
No if you are fully vaccinated. But you will do a test on day 2 of arrival.

Thank you.
Because last year we were taken to a hotel and they forcefully made us stay there for 2 weeks, at 20k per day

Also how are they going to find me 2 days after?

Foreign Affairs / Re: Kabul: Stop Believing US Military Invasions Have Noble Intentions by ArewaTech1(m): 7:09am On Aug 17, 2021
moriss33:
You copied & pasted this lengthy crap cuz u hate the Americans so much but u would gladly take a US visa over an afgan visa.
Ur hypocrisy is so alarming that ur Allah would be ashamed...well u can keep foaming in the mouth.
The Americans are gone 4rm afganistan & ur fellow muslims are dying to leave too & that's literally.
They are even hanging on to planes to escape the horrors of Sharia & the taliban.
If the US were plundering Afghanistan like u think, they wouldn't even leave, they will continue untill all resources are depleted like the British is doing to Nigeria.
So get some sense & stop hating on what u don't understand.

I posted this because there's truth in it and it made sense to me, so I want as many people as possible to at least go through it.
& about copy&paste, well it's mostly python and selenium if you know what that is grin

Yes, I hate America, the government for what it is and what it had done to so many people.
Believe me, I will NEVER want to take a US visa. In fact I was given the option to choose between The US and India for my higher studies and I chose India. [and if I were to receive the same options again, I would still make the same choice]

The Afghans are leaving to escape a war torn country not to escape the Islamic Laws.

The US were plundering, and are leaving because they've already got what they want... destabilize the country, steal as much as possible and make more Arms dealers billionaires.

So get some sense. stop hating, and thinking you know more than anyone just because you get your news from the western media.
They have their agenda.
Foreign Affairs / Kabul: Stop Believing US Military Invasions Have Noble Intentions by ArewaTech1(m): 6:26am On Aug 17, 2021
I love how everyone's just pretending the Afghanistan Papers never happened and the Taliban takeover is some kind of shocking tragedy instead of the thing everyone knew would happen because they've been knowingly lying about working to create a stable government this entire time.

If the US had a free press and was anything like a democracy, the government wouldn't be getting away with squandering thousands of lives and trillions of dollars on a twenty-year war which accomplished literally nothing besides making assholes obscenely wealthy.

Thousands of human lives. Trillions of dollars. If western mass media were anything remotely resembling what they purport to be, they would be making sure the public understands how badly their government just bleeped them. Instead it's just "Oh no, those poor Afghan women."

War apologists talk about "doing nothing" like that's somehow worse than creating mountains of human corpses for power and profit. "We've got to DO SOMETHING about the Taliban! We can't just do NOTHING!"

Uhh, yes you can. Please for the love of God do nothing. Doing nothing would be infinitely better than more military interventionism in a nation you've already tortured for twenty years for no valid reason.

People who think US interventionism solves problems just haven't gone through the mountains upon mountains of evidence that it definitely definitely does not at all. Nobody honestly believes the US needs to invade every nation in the world with illiberal cultural values; they only think that way with Afghanistan due to war propaganda. And women's lives in Afghanistan have still been shit under the occupation.

They had twenty years to build a stable nation in Afghanistan. Twenty years. If you believe that's what they were really trying to do there, or that results would be any different if you gave them twenty more, you're a fucking slowpoke.

If you think the US needs to be in Afghanistan so the Taliban doesn't take over then have some integrity and intellectual honesty and admit you want perpetual occupation. In which case you should be arguing for Afghan annexation so they get votes and congressional representation.

The objection shouldn't be that there was no "withdrawal plan", it should be that there was no occupation plan. Nothing was done in those entire twenty years for the long-term benefit of Afghans. The entire plan was "Stay and plunder as much as we can until we feel like leaving."

And of course more than this we should be upset that the US and its allies invaded Afghanistan at all, killing hundreds of thousands of people for no legitimate reason.

When all you've got is an insanely over-funded military every problem looks like a job for your insanely over-funded military.

I am once again asking you to stop believing US military invasions have noble intentions.

And stop blaming this on the "corrupt Afghan government". There was no "Afghan government"; there was just whatever random Afghans happened to be willing to align with the occupying force that invaded their country while it was there. All blame rests entirely on that occupying force.

Now would be a great time to un-rehabilitate public opinion of George W Bush.

People who think the US military can be used for good remind me of that scene in Edward Scissorhands where he's going around the house accidentally slashing things and then trying to fix them but he can't fix them because he's got horrible scissor hands that can only slash.

Every time mass military murder fails to achieve good things the proponents of mass military murder show up saying "The problem is we didn't murder enough people."

You'll never see westerners so concerned about humanitarian issues as when there's a chance some distant part of the world might not be subjected to military occupation by the most murderous power structure on earth.

Oh no, the country is immediately returning to the state it was in before we started using mass military violence to force it to look a bit different for a while. That's like dressing your kid up as Batman for Halloween and then getting sad the next day because Batman's gone.

Can't figure out why Americans keep consenting to a government foreign policy of piracy and mass murder which is killing people by the millions via starvation and military violence. All that theft must be buying them awesome benefits like great healthcare and quality of life. Americans must be the happiest most thriving people in the world.

So many movies depict young men coming home from World War 2 like "Howdy Ma, hey Pop, boy it's great to be home, now I gotta go see about that girl!" instead of hollowed out husks who'd go on to live out miserable half-lives beating their children and trying to drink away their trauma.

I still can't get over how mainstream news stories about empire-targeted countries can be based entirely on reports by think tanks that are openly funded by weapons manufacturers. How is the fact that this is journalistic malpractice not obvious to everyone in the world?

The international symbol for the United States should be the Pentagon. It's far more representative of what that nation stands for and what it does than some flag or an eagle.

War is the worst thing in the world. It's the single most insane, destructive and unsustainable thing humans do. People who tell me I shouldn't focus on it as much are people I just disregard, because they simply don't grasp the horrific nature of war and the need to condemn it.

Sure they could have just killed Assange. But then the message to journalists would've been "We'll get you if you expose our crimes, but we'll have to be sneaky about it," which is less intimidating than "We'll get you if you expose our crimes, and we'll do it right in the open."

Western rightists are being trained to blame western civilization's rising authoritarianism on "communism" and "Marxism", and as a result they are reacting to anti-capitalists like myself with increasing shrillness and hysteria while the actual (very capitalist) authoritarians go unopposed.

Just another regular reminder that there will never be peace and economic justice as long as the majority are successfully convinced by establishment propaganda that those things are not in their interest. The propaganda machine must first be discredited and rendered non-functioning.

If you've got any urge to write articles or make videos or a podcast, just do it. You're infinitely more qualified to be the media than people who are paid by billionaires to lie, and they're not asking anyone for permission to speak. If Chris fucking Cuomo gets a voice, then so do you.

You don't have to be perfect or professional quality or whatever; hell, give yourself permission to outright suck at first if that's how it plays out. Give yourself permission to not be perfect and just learn as you go and correct your mistakes as you make them. That's allowed. Again, no matter how bad you are you're still infinitely more qualified to report the news and tell the truth than any of the shitstains who are being platformed by multibillion-dollar media outlets right now, and whatever you make will be better than what they make. Just do it.

Don't stop if you don't get a big audience right away, or if you never do. It's not about that. If you can open even one person's eyes to one aspect of reality, you are helping humanity to become a more conscious species by that much. That's what it's about. That's what matters. And even if you don't do that, fleshing out your ideas in some public medium is a great way to help yourself become aware of more things and deepen your own understanding, so you're still improving humanity by that much. So no matter what happens you can't lose.

If we're ever to turn things around it will be the result of a very large number of us grabbing a rope and tugging. You don't have to be a megastar, you just have to do your bit. Start from there and see what happens.

It's impossible to be a truly good person without loosening your relationship with mental narrative. If you're clinging tight to thoughts and beliefs you're not able to relate to life as it is, you're just relating to your own mental stories, so you can't respond to life wisely.

Les Miserables' Inspector Javert is a perfect depiction of what goes wrong when you emphasise narrative over reality, in his case replacing true goodness with moralism, with shoulds and shouldn'ts and rules and laws instead of responding to life as it shows up like Valjean. In contrast to Javert, Valjean is able to recognize that Fantine's plight was a result of his own negligence even though she shows up as a prostitute in trouble with the law. Because his eyes are open to life as it is, he's able to exercise true compassion and help her and Cosette.

People like Valjean are able to see through not just their own mental narratives, but the narratives that are imposed upon them externally by mass-scale propaganda. People like Javert will support every power agenda no matter how depraved, because they believe mental stories.


Ego doesn't make it out alive. One way or another, it's a goner. It either dies by being seen through, or it takes us all out with it. The good news is that every single one of us gets to make that choice in every single moment.
Travel / Re: The Bad Behaviour Of Some Nigerians Abroad by ArewaTech1(m): 10:48am On Aug 09, 2021
I've been living in India for almost 4 years now, and it's always better when asked by someone to just say you're from Africa.

Because the moment they know you're a Nigerian just be ready to see the police for nearly every issue.

after an incident [where someone(Indian) asked me if I have the substance(drug) just because I said I'm from Nigeria] Since then I always say I am Sudanese (with the exception of places where I need to provide my Visa for verification)

Sometimes it hurts to be a Nigerian.

I can't forget the I travel to Delhi from the state I am living in, this guy after I told him that I'm a Nigerian, HE ASKED IF I HAVE "SUBSTANCE". it didn't mean anything to me at that time because I didn't understand what he meant at the time until I came back.

Phones / Learn How To Open A Whatsapp Chat With Yourself And Enjoy The Many Advantages by ArewaTech1(m): 7:33pm On Jan 20, 2021
Thanks to this function, you can save notes and multimedia files, and stop sending them to the chat of the ex who blocked you. wink

Opening a WhatsApp chat with yourself can be quite useful to have important files or messages on hand. Thus, you will access cooking recipes, to-do lists or the supermarket list in a practical and fast way.

Therefore, here I give you the best way so that you can send yourself messages, photos, voice clips, among other files and thus, stop using the chats of people who have blocked you.


1. Open your phone's browser,

2. In the address bar type wa,me/and-add-your-country-code-and-your-phone-number. For example, for wa,me/2347020576973

3. Then a window will appear with an invitation to chat with the corresponding number and a button that says "Continue to chat." Then press that option

4. Select WhatsApp or WA Business (whichever you're using), a new chat with yourself will open in the WhatsApp application and you can start sending yourself messages or different multimedia files

If you want access to the chat with yourself to be even more direct, you should know that WhatsApp allows you to keep up to three conversations at the top of the message list. To do so, you just have to press and hold the chat you want to pin and choose the first icon that appears at the top (from left to right).

There is a way, but it involved a pc and a paid app.
if you can pay for a windows app (about 25USD) you can move your chats.

Travel / My Parcel With Npost Still Showing "Item Booked" Since November 2020 by ArewaTech1(m): 9:18pm On Jan 04, 2021
Hello Nairalanders,

I posted a parcel using NIPOST from Sokoto, Nigeria to Uttar Pradesh, India since 11/11/2020. But since then whenever I tried tracking it, it keeps saying item booked (means the parcel is still in Sokoto). I contacted the EMS Manager at Sokoto NIPOST he said that the item is in India, the movement is just not updated on the internet. I reached out to India Post Service and they said "The origin Post is yet to dispatch it. Kindly ask the sender to raise a complaint with Origin Post."

Please, what do I do?

is it known of NIPOST to lose people's properties?

if the parcel is lost how do I request for full payment?

Thank you
