Sorry, we don't need the 'sea', we can fly out. Keep your sea!

Besides, we have many 'Rivers'!
How many ft³ of gas can you "fly out" in a day?

Do you ever wonder why pipelines are always better for the transportation of hydrocarbons?

I don't know the kind brain you people have.
This has always been in existence. Minus the pressure from IPOB that exposed them, they have been siphoning it to another reserve or should I say another zone to make is look like it is from another state just like Anambra crude oil that Delta has been collecting loyalties from or that they wanted to push to Kogi. The governors are aware but can't say anything because of the nature through which they got to the post.
If not for Ipob, you won't see them saying this in public.
Please you can't siphon oil to another reserve..
It makes no economic sense

I was actually trying to upgrade to the newer software when it got fried, the software on it is the lastest software now as confirmed by their customer care. thanks bro, I am even thinking maybe I should take it to the guy to return it to the original software I bought it with
Did the technician change any internal components like transistor or something else?
Did you also confirm from the customer care if you account is running/active.

If the earlier is the case then that may have altered with the chip number used to activate the account resulting in you getting the "scrambled channel" message. You mentioned other fta channels are smooth right?

Gurus in the how, my decoder Strong Srt 497s got fried and I took it to a guy who helped me bring it back to life, but the problem is all the mytv channels are showing scrambled channels now except NTA and tiwa n tiwa which will flash scrambled channel then show their programs, but before all the channels were showing, and my subscription will expire by October, I called their customer care and they said I should contact and installer to check my connection and the Dish still the same issue persists, I called them again and they told me to take the decoder to their accredited dealer which I did the dealer couldn't help so I took the decoder back now am watching normal free to air. Please what could be the issue help I love those their documentary channels rt Smithsonian and cctv documentary
I think it could be the software version he used to revive it,try using a newer software

Fanancial autonomy means judges should buy themselves Cars and build houses..just like d Executives do!

If they are enjoying F.A.( ignorantly believed what a politician said!)why will you have the power to deduct salaries if u transfer their funds to them?
You could make your point without being rude.

Has the Rivers State judiciary openly say they're underfunded? They're not lacking bro! I'm from Rivers State so yes Wike doesn't say what he didn't do.

Again, the RS judiciary isn't underfunded!!

Lol...if only you know what's happening in real-time. Just Like the post asserted,they had no need to go on strike because the Rivers State chapter are independent from the federal,they're all paid and believe me the Rivers State judiciary has enjoyed a lot of privileges under him from buy judges cars to building them houses. There was really no need for them to go on strike, maybe it was just for solidarity but they aren't affected. Same goes for Rivers State University too, they're no longer part of ASUU so don't go on strike and believe me we're loving it. The Governor has its shortcomings like lack of employment and promotion since he assumed power in the Rivers State civil service, not much projects under his belt apart from sprinkling flyovers here and there but he doesn't fail on the basics — payment of salaries and pensions. With the enormous resources and revenue Rivers State generates, he's expected to do better but in the present day Nigeria were mediocre Governors walk free, he seem to be doing so much.

Please if it's not too late, you can spare some time and learn filmmaking or pure animation. The field is very lucrative and always in demand.

To all the youngins out here, ffuck what your parents think, they won't be there when you're stuck career wise. They want the best for you but, don't let them dictate your career to you.
I also wanted to become a programmer, but I was discouraged. Now, I'm working part time as an post production associate at an ad coy.
I learnt filmmaking all by myself even tho I read computer science in school.
Though I like my job, but I'd be happier doing what I've always wanted to do.
If money is were we find happiness then we'll always be poor.

Does it mean Saudi can take on Russia
He knows next to nothing. It's not necessarily by spending billions on nothing. Most of the budget is actually on research and NOT weapons development. American spent billions to develop the F-35 but it has been maimed with faults so they had to developed another. Till date, even America accepts that their best fighter jet is the F-22 Raptor. The SU-35 is better comparatively with cost to the F-35

Meninmen:
Lol. Let me show you how I have owned you in this discuss.

First, you talked about how few Russian submarines are permanently stationed in the east and west coast of the US. I presented proof you that the supposed submarines patrolled several miles off US East coast, in international waters. Instead of you to show proof that Russian submarines are permanently stationed in US east and west coast as you alleged, you began blabbing. Russia Submarines stationed permanently in US east and west coast? How does that sound to you? Only this statement alone confirmed you are a clown!

On the contrary, there have been more incidence of US stealth submarines lurking close to and into Russia's territorial waters.

Then you talked about the Cuban missile crisis being a political brinkmanship. Fact was presented you that it was actually more of a military tactics than just political brinkmanship as you claimed.

Now you just wrote alot and said nothing. He said he wouldn't say anything about New Russian missiles and torpedos. Lol. It is the US that is not producing New military hardwares? Very funny human being! A country whose military budget is bigger than Russia's and China's combined will not be developing new weapons? Lol! What are the monies now used for? To drink beer abi grin.

Should I tell you the US recent advances in the military field? Talking about Russia torpedoes. Mtcheew!!! Even China and Russia are finding it difficult to keep up. Infact, the US have taken the battle to Space now, while still dominating the earth!

When have you heard of the US stealing Russia Military technology to make their weapons? But Russia is constantly involved in trying to steal US latest military technology, still they can't beat the best.

Even Putin and Russia knows that when it comes to military might, the US is number 1. Infact, the US doesn't think highly of Russia anymore. The greatest threat to their might is no longer Russia but China.

How come Russia always plead with the US anytime the US decides to leave their Nuclear treaties? The US is no longer renewing the open sky treat, now Putin is scared! grin

The number 1 Military super power in the world is the US. If you don't like this statement of fact, drink sniper! grin.


PS: we can actually do a comparision of each countries military capabilities (Air, sea, land).

70 years old man wants to show he has knowledge of world Military affairs while displaying Ignorance at the same time!
All I see here is exaggerated lies. Get you facts right bro

Us is a country with dirty secret
Imagine Usa the first country to produce nuclear weapons
If any serious earn escalate you will be surprised where their weapons comes from
Being the first to do something doesn't make you the best at it. Early missiles were developed by nazi Germany but today Russia has the beat ICBM around,they have a very good airforce too.

If Russia stations ICBM carrier between the NATO members borders trust me they'll back out. If an all out war breaks out, it will be between Russia and the US because these other nations have very little to no firepower.

Once again there would be no wars in the nearest future because the nations that matter posses weapons of check and balances.

Banning Twitter in Nigeria is a petty and thoughtless move by the FG. But then, in the first place, Twitter shouldn't have the power to delete a president's tweet (any president whatsoever).
The Nigerian government and Twitter have both equally erred!
You know why there hasn't been another world war? Because we have a few countries with weapons to keep others in check. Without checks,democracy is just a disguised dictatorship. Wonder why our National Assembly is a mess? Because it has become rubberstamped — no checks on the errs of the presidency whatsoever.

Twitter has rules and these rules are one of the little ways to keep these power hungry mo.fos in check.

You see, the delegate system was the best shot at this but over time we lost confidence on our delegates. The NASS is setup in a similar structure but at the end what do we have? Selfish dollars-pocketing animals.

Nigeria defies logic,policies loom good on paper but doesn't work when applied; why? Because the policy maker left a back do to exploit the policy to his own undue advantage!

Even mechanical engineering is trash. The only engineering course I will advise anyone to study is electrical engineering or computer engineering. I did marine engineering which is a specialised field of mechanical engineering and getting jobs was hell. If you are in your final year and have time start learning to code now. I used to use my free time in the university to watch movies and play games. I really regret doing that now.
So many people suggesting about coding, I feel in a few years the field would be saturated too. Everyone musn't code...you have any other alternatives? I'm really open to opinions.

I'm in my finals studying Petroleum Engineering and the comments I'm seeing here is nothing short of depressing.

I really had to learn some things the hard way. I have one little advice for aspirants here: DON'T STUDY PETROLEUM ENGINEERING AS FIRST DEGREE!!!

The future if the oil industry is bleak, getting a job comes with a good pay and all but the field is too streamlined so there's barely a job for 3/10th of Petroleum Engineering graduates; mechanical engineers are getting the jobs. As a PE, you can't get a job in ME but a ME can easily get a job in PE.

I agree with you, I mean; the 1999 constitution was drafted by power-hungry, military tribalistic i.diots.

The judiciary isn't helping either,the interpretation of the constitution and exploitation of its never-ending loopholes pains me so much.

WE NEED A NEW CONSTITUTION that will not be drafted by a delegated few if not we keep going round in circles again.
