Mummyimbecile: What keeps a country going is the rule of law and respect for court orders.
If there is no respect for court orders, it sets the pace for anarchy. 👈 -Read this again before quoting me! That's one of my problems with El-rufai - he went against court orders. I believe the court should have their own police they send to enforce their order outside of what the president has control over. Our leaders are so reckless. Or a law should be made that if you disregard a court order, you should not vie for any position again or approach the court on any other case. Or your allocation account should be stopped. That's the only way these men would respect the court. The court and the judges must do their own part to rid themselves of corruption too, so they can achieve this. |

Posterity will be the judge. The Nigerian judiciary is nothing but a waged-slave of the highest bidder. Nigeria has finally become the corruption headquarters of the entire world.
So tasteless that immediately after the presidential tribunal hearing, the entire court hearing follow the posture of the winner at the top must be the beneficiary of all electoral court cases you didn't read before you commented, so you won't see that this was in favor of LP. @topic Our laws should not be this way. People voted for the party. They should not lose that. If INEC couldn't hold election in 54 polling units due to sec reasons, that could have been the same reason they couldn't hold their primaries in ideato. Why's the tribunal in Nasarawa? Same reason.

It was the fear of what to expect that kept him a bit frail some months before the elections. If you check very well, you'd see that he campaigned more than all the presidential candidates - he took no break.

Car Talk › Re: The Differences Between 4, 6, 8, 12… Cylinders by BALLOSKI: 11:35am On Sep 09, 2023 |
AutoHubNG: You probably understand the importance of your car’s engine because without a working engine, you won’t get very far, but most of us don’t know much about how vehicle engines work. When identifying your car’s engine type, it usually comes down to the cylinders. So, what exactly is a cylinder? We’ll go over this, as well as some other engine parts you should know about.
Cylinders are an important part of your car’s engine. Whenever you look at the engine bay of either a newer or an older car, you’ll see the configuration as it’s usually quite noticeable even if it’s only just a quick glance. The cylinders are usually located in front and at the centre. Most of us associate the number of cylinders with power, and there’s nothing wrong with that. However, that isn’t always the case.
Car cylinders are a lot like the pot you use to cook your food. It’s not the cylinder itself that is powerful, but what it holds. Car cylinders contain fuel; the more cylinders you have, the more fuel you can use at one time. It’s the same with cooking pots and pans. You can’t cook 2 litres of soup in a 1-litre pot.
Now with that said, let’s briefly touch on a few parts:
The cylinders – are made of durable metal and are sealed at one end. The other end opens and closes. The cylinder has a tight-fitting piston that slides up and down, and two valves that open and close to let something in or shut everything out.
Intake valve – lets fuel and air into the cylinder (from the carburetor or injector).
Exhaust valve – allows exhaust gases to escape.
Spark plug – sits at the top of the cylinder and it creates a spark that ignites the fuel.
Piston – is located at the bottom of the cylinder and is attached to a shaft called the crankshaft.
Crankshaft – provides power to the car’s transmission and drives the wheels.
The real difference between 4, 6, 8, 12… cylinders
If you should only know one thing about car engines, it should be the difference between a 4-cylinder, 6-cylinder, 8-cylinder, & a 12-cylinder engine (could be more – it was intentional to use the image of a W-16 Bugatti engine in the title-graphic). Since cylinders are like cooking utensils that hold fuel, the more you have, the more fuel you burn. When you have more cylinders, you create more motion to turn the crankshaft, which provides more power to the car. But as you may have discovered by now, more cylinders also mean you’ll burn a lot more fuel, and faster.
That’s why faster or more powerful cars are almost always less fuel-efficient than most economy cars. But don’t make the mistake of thinking that more cylinders equals a faster car. Again, that is not always the case. In fact, most trucks and pick-ups use 6, 8, 10 or even 12-cylinder engines in some cases – but you won’t see an F150 winning a race against a regular sized 6-cylinder sports car. More cylinders mean more power, period. The design of the car, however – dictates how that power is distributed. And modern technology to add to that, has usurped “size” – redefining how much power can be gotten out of “smaller” engines via the manipulation of air – “forced induction” through a modified air intake contrivance based on the principle that more air in the combustion process greatly creates a higher of output of power, and they are usually called Turbochargers or Superchargers. Slight variation in how they operate, however, they both carry out similar functions nonetheless.
Also, pistons matter a lot during this stage – as you might imagine (or not imagine), pistons are subjected to a lot of heat and pressure during all combustion processes. When the pistons are able to move with more force, the combustion will be more powerful, and the car will in turn move with more force.
Conclusion
When choosing between a 4, 6, 8, 10, or a 12-cylinder engine, it’s all about personal preference. If fuel economy is most important to you, you’ll want an inline 4-cylinder engine. If you want to balance fuel economy and speed, then I strongly urge you to consider a 4-cylinder turbocharged engine which can be found in many German sub-compact, compact and mid-size luxury category of vehicles post 2015. To get pure power, a 6-cylinder turbocharged engine may be right for you. Then if you’ve got the means and fuelling (especially now that a sizeable chunk of our income goes into this – God abeg O) isn’t really a problem for you, and you really really long for that your dream powerful ultra-high performance V8 car – then by all measure go for it! There are few pleasures in life; driving the ultimate behemoth is definitely amongst that list…
And as you may know, the best way to determine which car is best for you is to carry out research on it first then take it out for a test drive to see if its performance on an open road will fulfill your heart’s desire but please don’t forget your pocket level O at the end of the day.
Do have yourself a pleasant drive. And as always, thanks for taking out your precious time to read this piece.

Timagex: But, if the roles were reversed and a man wants to marry, he looks for attributes of a wife and mother in a woman. If she is financially successful, it's a bonus for him.
Empower a man: you empower a great number of people. Empower a woman: she begins to feel she doesn't need anybody again.

Nonywendy: I have been dating this my girl friend since 2017. She made me fall and believe in love, she ticked all the qualities I desire in a woman. When I we started dating she was in her 200L, and everything was going on smoothly. Now this is where the issue lies, When she went for service in another state, I started noticing some changes, wen she comes back home during holidays I used to go through her phone.(note: she has access to my phone and I too). So one of those period I realised she is seeing another guy in the state where she is serving. I confronted her and she opened up to me and confessed. I forgave her.
Then after like 4months again, I later noticed she is also seeing another guy different from the initial one I noticed, she denied that but I had to do my deep investigation and got an evidence, she opened up again, at this point I broke up with her and moved on. After like one month she came back begging for forgiveness, It took me time to heal and I forgave her.
Then this last one that broke the camel's back, I noticed she traveled to the state where she did her youth service for something and all this while I thought she was staying with her sister, not knowing she was staying with the first guy she dated while serving whch she apologised. She stayed with her for three good weeks. How I realized was, I called her line one early morning arnd 3am and a guy picked the call asking me who I am. At first, I froze cos I haven't been in that kind of situation, I calmed down and explained everything to the guy, and the guy also told me she has been with her for the past three weeks and that's the girl friend too. I was shocked. I have broken up with her finally cos I don't think forgiving a cheating partner is worth it. The first time she cheated, 90% of my friends advised me to dump her ass and move on but I had to forgive on the basis of nobody is perfect, but this third time is a no no. Now she has been begging and asking for forgiveness that she has really learnt her lessons. At this point I'm just so mad that I don't want to forgive her. Now the big problem is that I'm always seeing her in my dream, I have not really moved on cos it's not easy for me. I have loved her for solid 6 yrs plus. Note: all the family members from my side and her side are fully aware of our relationship and have approved but they are not aware that I have broken up. If you are my shoes will you forgive her for this very last time or will her cheating continues? Your advise and suggestions will be well appreciated. Thank you i don't know if I should call you mumu. Go back to that girl and she will mark your end in life. One day, one of those her men would knock you down because you might act in a way in his presence out of jealousy. You're still not old enough to know what to do. You nor sharp sef. That girl de see more than 10 men. Girl wey go stay for man house for 3 weeks, you de even care about what family members would say when you breakup with her? You're a... Dream about her? So? Move on. You de vex me sef... |

Racoon: Yes! Heroin-sniffing balabloo-blu-bulava drug baron."The president of Nigeria should never be associated with such a miasma of dubiety. Here’s another “hard question”. What’s the message to aspiring future leaders of Nigeria?
That they can make the wrong choices in life, live a less-than-honest life, and still become president provided they have deep pockets and can manipulate the system?
No one who truly loves Nigeria can ignore the damaging precedent that Tinubu’s emergence as president set for the moral bearings of this country. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2023/08/tinubus-government-where-is-nigerias-soul-moral-compass-by-olu-fasan/ By your own assertion, even if circumstance of him having that money was not by his direct involvement in the deal, but he complied with the authority and forfeited the funds, he must lose his right to aspire to the presidency of his country? That's injustice, too. The only clearance he needs is the one the embassy gave him as response to a security check by our IGP. America don't joke! |
