In your home while growing up, you mean your dad is instructed by the kids to address pressing issues in the family. Amazing thought process you've got there.

mascot87:
Bro, let us be reasonable and not stupid. We ask that he address us and you are still talking about reading script. Wouldn't it be better he read script than not addressing the nation at all?

Hey man, can you please do me a quick check on this Vin JHLRE38708C044606. Thanks in anticipation.

Oil revenues are running low. Those who started insurgency in Nigeria are about to halt its activities. The whole Boko Haram episode was just a fraud by Northern elements.

I met my girlfriend about 2yrs ago and we've been doing pretty fine. Before we met, she was in an abusive relationship and she had to quit.

In trying to understand ourselves, we've had to agree and disagree on some things, which I believe is normal. I love her and she loves me too.

I won't say I have the cash, but I'm always there to support her when she has a very pressing issue. Aside that, I take her out, we go shopping, and lots more...

She is this type of lady that if you try to correct her (in a very respectful manner) she will just get angry and may not even talk to you for even 2 days. Anger is a big part of her life. I respect her a lot and have never used abusive words on her.

When we just met, she was kind. She hardly comes to see me without buying something, even if it's N50 corn...a gesture that I appreciate so much. About a year into the relationship, her character changed. She became somewhat stingy. But I didn't take it to mean anything because I hate to even depend on anybody for anything. It didn't stop me from supporting her and doing the much I can for her.

She doesn't ever allow me touch her phone. What she does now is that whenever I'm to see and spend time with her, she turns off her data. She rejects some calls when we are together. As someone who wants peace at all times, I've sat her down to tell her my observations and ask what the matter was. But she told me nothing was the matter.

So, I decided to buy a new SIM card. I started chatting her as a stranger. She chats with me (the stranger) till even 2am. She has opened up everything about herself to the stranger. Her name, where she's from, what she does, where she lives and lots more. I'm just wondering why someone who just chatted you today is already getting to know everything about you.

Now to the reason I opened this thread: she told the stranger guy that she isn't in any relationship. Though, she added that she just met a Guy last week through her friend and they are both trying to work things out. She even sent the picture of the new guy to this stranger.

I'm still wondering why she will do a thing like that. I'm not in her life to waste her time. She is very aware of that. I told her last December that we shall go see her people this year and seal everything, but she told me that we still have time and no need for the rush.

Personally, I had no reasons to suspect her of possibly cheating, but her actions when we are together made me get a new SIM card and started chatting her up anonymously.

On my part, I'm a guy that ladies even open up to me that they like me. They also say I'm very intelligent and all that. I'm very transparent to her. I don't hide nothing from her. I can leave my phone with her without any fear because I don't have anything to hide.

I've never had anything to do with any lady since I met her. I so much believe in keeping your body and soul to just the person you are with...whether relationship or marriage. If you can't do that, why not just tell the person that you are not interested again than going your way to deny the person before another guy.

Ladies and gents, why on earth will a man or woman do this to someone who had dedicated his or her all to you?

I will gladly welcome your contributions, including bashing...

Addition: I am business oriented. To make her depend less on any man for money, I have created a passive income source for her that generates about 20k for her monthly

Please save yourself from all the troubles that will surely be upon if you continue this relationship. Terminate it now, I mean don't go any further, pick up the phone and terminate it. There are a million girls out there for you. Judging by your story, you seem a nice fellow. Please, end it now, today, this moment.

God give you the grace to end it. The number one priority in your life right now, is to end that relationship today. Do it by phone, by SMS, send a friend to tell, etc. Just do it. As a matter of fact, she doesn't deserve the courtesy of doing it the right way, so you can do it anyhow. You can leave a note in front of your door with an inscription "It's over, please stay away from my house".... Etc. Man, end it!

Look at this mallam, shut up there and enjoy the excess crude revenue before they fix their refinery and sort out their production output.

Too much crime in Brazil, take that from me!

For those of you who think the market would rally back, I'm sorry that won't happen. Following the aftermath of the 2015 elections and the continued bad policies of the APC led administrations, Nigeria's main stock index has dropped almost 49% in dollar terms since May 2015, when Buhari was elected president.

This implies that the NSE has lost around half of its market capitalization since 2015.

If the market lost around half of its total worth in around 4 years, there is a possible forecast that total market cap will be wiped out in the next 4 years (hypothetical though, considering the trend between 2015 - present).

The NSE has been in a constant bear market since 2015, however, when the market dives, it doesn't nose dive headlong, we'll find sessions of corrections i.e. points in the market where it looks like we are resuming some bullish sentiments, then it dips some more.

To explain this further, if, for instance, the market drops by 500 points in a day, we might then see the market take back those losses by appreciating by say 100 points (making the overall loss equal 500-100=400). This is why although overall growth might be negative (minus 400), you can still hear that the market grew by 100 points (then some Buharists will run and tag you on such news).

Let me not waste my energy explaining things to some dumbos, continue in your ignorance and quota system government parastatal work.

Hey guys,

I stumbled upon this while perusing the APC Website. On the APC Homepage, go to Manifesto (on the top area if you're viewing on a PC) and proceed to "Section 5 - Power Supply" It clearly shows that these guys are not serious, the same thing was done with the NextLevel logo and you expect these lots to change the dynamics in Nigeria?

yeman1:

When we glamour for vibrant systems, some fool would rather want to build a nation around personalities. No nation ever makes it that way. What happened to ambulances? A trauma patient is subjected to even more trauma. The mess called Nigeria will get to everyone, the Sai Baba's and the Atikulated mad folks inclusive.

We need a fresh narrative to steer this country, else does it make sense having an accident on the metal body of a truck. Such a sad scene! Wish them a quick recovery, but the black man is cursed!

Another way to send those soldiers they don't want to engage in the fight against terrorism ongoing in the North East away from the theater of war. Python dance will just offer some soldiers an avenue to stay off the risk of fighting Boko Haram. Just a decoy for some selected soldiers, nothing more, nothing less.

Would you be sitting on that road every single day to rescue people?

Now here what you can do to make that possible:

1. Fix the road and when I mean fix the road, I mean have proper road signs, proper road markings with reflective colors, etc.

2. Functional emergency units (ambulances, trained staffs, sensitization (so people will be aware once they hear blaring sirens everyone moves to the right side of the road), and supporting medical centers.

3. You need an information management unit that would connect, the emergency guys, to the security (police), to hospitals, to the people - you need a functional rescue number that people can call.

Do this and stop showing up at accident scenes like a retard and when I say retard, I'm referring to all of you (politicians). Useless black people who have no sense of setting up functional systems.

Nope it won't, something within the range of N2million - N3million I suggest, based on how you go about it. Godspeed!

bantudra:
because your forefathers fought with the colonials against mine....you traitor....backstabbers....

Needless derailing the train of thoughts here. Seemingly, you have nothing on your paid masters having watched them failed endlessly over the last three years. You can go back to the original comment and debunk my statements, so we can have a sound flow here.

It's a grave pity, Buhari is a sound failure and was a mistake of the century. It'll take years to erase his drawbacks.

bantudra:
stfu...africans can fight even without protective gears....fearless....!!

Why didn't your fathers fight off the colonial masters when they came looking for slave workers to fill up spaces in their plantations?

The Policeman does not realize how he has failed himself. If you're intelligent enough as a Policeman, you find yourself in a volatile situation (considering you were asked to go control a volatile crowd or should I say disperse them) - just look at the gear he has on.

1. No protective covering for his head (obviously, your loyalty is thrown behind a system that doesn't care about you, if they do you'll be properly kitted with the right anti-riot gear).

2. Just something as simple as a rock thrown at this man will definitely take him out.

3. The patrol car that brought you to the venue is not bulletproof (so yes, you can be shot at and killed in it, just like a lot of your colleagues), but those of your principals are - yet you so happily open your teeth to shot a gas canister.

4. Even if by mistake something life-threatening happens to you, the fate of those in the Force that went through same (neglect) will stare you in the face.

Considering these and you still behave in an unprofessional manner, then I can say your likes are animals.

What sort of a country is this? Asides the fact that these key institutions receive government allocations, they simply can't afford body bags to place each corpse into. What is really the relevance of a black man in modern times? Accident victims are thrown behind the buckets of FRSC trucks, cemeteries are like forest/untidy/unplanned, etc. What do we really do well as black people? I weep for my race.

pls my payoneer card won't work in ATM here in naija ooo

d 17 USD inside don reduce to 13usd due to d ATM checking you know de remove 1usd per checking on ATM

pls wat is. dproblem

Try the card on Access Bank (best place to use Payoneer cards), it also works on Zenith, GTBank, Stanbic, I've forgotten the others. If it doesn't work on those aforementioned, contact Payoneer on their support channels.

I use to believe in this whole drama, not anymore. I only pity the pawns (the mostly Christians girls) in the chess game of power. Why Chibok community? They carefully selected a Christian community in their bloody game - you need to sit back and carefully understand the power play to get the whole play.

Zone whatever you wanna zone, I'm not part of the zoning nonsense and wasn't consulted. I'll get my PVC and ensure I'm in Nigeria during the polls - Duke is my preferred candidate. I'll canvass for him, get my mom, uncles, aunties, et al to vote for him. I'll do my bid, I won't vote for an evil Buhari or Atiku.

This is a governor that after his tenure left Calabar as the only metropolis with treated water running into homes via a card payment system (only State in Nigeria to develop and implement such a system). He also implemented a waste management system (CUDA, IUDA) that was so effective, Calabar and other towns (Ikom, Ogoja, Ugep, etc) became very neat. Designed a tourism roadmap for the State and implemented a great deal. The dude understands how to build a system ground up.

Abattoirs were being designed, new markets, motor parks were tarred across the State, the State's General Hospital became more efficient, he had a 24-hour intervention to potholes, streets lights don't go dead (you simply don't notice it, cos they get replaced once they die off). The entire street lightning in Calabar were connected underground to an independent power source (Tinapa Grid) and not the usual generators seen by the side of major roads in most cities that I've been to in Nigeria i.e. street lights just come on and you don't know what is powering them.

The guy has a grip of how to build a system ground-up. Take Buhari and make him Premier of the North if you zombies love him so much. He has nothing to offer any modern society.

For those who don't understand Nigeria, let me help them here. The whole madness we are seeing between the Nigerian government and the Shiites is another problem being nurtured in wait for a non-muslim President. I'll come back to this post, God willing when the violence starts in say 5 years or more from now (it'll be in the form of Boko Haram). Once a Nigerian of Southern extraction takes up the Presidency, Gbam! The chaos will be let loose (their grievances, pain, etc).

They will demand their territory, they will attack barracks, they will maim, kill etc and it will look like the Army is not working, DSS will have no intel about them (remember Buhari flooded the DSS with so many Northerners in as much as Kastina getting almost more than all the SS states put together). As they grow, such a set will have so many folks from the north and the probability of getting point men (Directors, etc), will find the odds in the favor of the North. Some of the tilted recruitments are done with an outlook into the future. Extrapolate such agenda across other armed formations in Nigeria.

Suddenly, the Southern President will be called weak and all that i.e. another Buhari of that era will be polished as the man with all the solutions (Gbam, power will return to the north and the vicious cycle continues). This is just a game plan, watch it unfold.

People drive like they're on drugs in most part of that road and I can say same also applies on other roads in this country. I took a trip on the 14th of December 2017, around the Agbor axis, while I was overtaking a long truck at around 120km/h - 130 km/h, I saw a bump on the road, took my feet off the gas and the rest is history.

One reckless idiot was tailing me, and he said his brakes failed and he rammed me from behind (messed my entire trunk, tail lights, backdoors weren't opening cos the squeezed in, exhaust blew as a result of the impact, etc). For heaven sake, why was this idiot tailing me, cause the last I remember, I didn't employ an escort.

To cut the long story short, this guy happened to be a dude who was learning auto mechanic in Asaba, at this garage opposite, the New Asaba Ultra Modern Mechanic Village (that's where he learns his trade). So he was sent to go fetch a car in Agbor and deliver for repairs in Asaba, this dude almost killed me, but for God.

I thank God I'm alive today and typing this in 2018. A lot of Nigerians shouldn't be on the highways, I just don't know how they do it. The element of recklessness in our accidents is so high. In the absence of functional systems, nothing would ever work in Nigeria.

All I can say is that they all have my prayers in their time of pain.

One of the dangerous spots on that Agbor road, I can't really pin the exact location, but when heading to Benin, just after Agbor, there are some little bridges that have gaps that are becoming quite large. So if you hit these bridges at top speed, those gaps are quite wide apart and somewhat deep, they could swerve you. There are other spots like that on that axis. I really don't know what ferma is doing, but Naija is sick.

If you need to do a wheel balancing or an alignment, you'll get an ESP (Electronic Stabilization Programme) error on your dashboard if you're driving a Mercedes Benz w203 models and above I guess.

Just take a look at the open gutters and tell me if the black man is sane.

The same idiot that gave out Bakassi to the Cameronians on a plater of gold and yet he still has the guts to go visit the state. The other idiot called Jonathan finished it up by handing over the remaining oil wells to AKS.

Don't really know but here's my average speed on Glo, it is quite fast since I'm on an average of 1.04Mbps. Glo is very fast, maybe some locations are shitty, but hey, same with other networks.

If you're sure you aren't going to end the marriage, keep all these stuff to yourself. If you do end up with her after letting out all the details, trust me folks who heard about it will come for your head and call you a weakling (it's not a good position to be in as a man, cos a man must be in charge at all times). On the other hand, if you let all these details out, make sure you end the marriage. These rules are very crucial for your happiness.

Trust me on this, a lot of folks go through worst shits, many don't let it out on SM et al. They just allow it burn within and they come to a conclusion on what to do. Some folks are not mentally strong enough to handle shits like this. I'm sorry it happened to you.

At this moment, you won't see clearly and your decisions might be marred by the pain you feel.

If you ask me for my advice, a cheating wife has to go, but I'm not you and I barely know some of the rules that govern the way you act.

Sometimes, people who cheat feel remorseful just about when they're caught and get back at it in a smarter way after the storm settles. Others will stay clean and never go back to it.

However, you need to understand how humans think in situations like this. You don't know how deep she's into the guy she cheated with, and depending how deep it is, that's how difficult it's going to be to get out for her (regardless of the crying and sobbing). These things don't just go away by saying "I'm sorry" from the other party who was caught in the act. It will take counseling, possibly spiritual help to get out of such habits (cheating is a habit) - it doesn't just go away by one saying "I'm Sorry," crying and feeling sober.

Take care and I pray you're able to see clearly amidst the storm.

Algerian1:
even in big cities? I know that Nigeria hasn't riched 100% electrification yet, but haven't known that they cut also for people who have the electricity

An Algerian thread isn't complete without mentioning Cheb Mami, my friend plays his music a lot in his car and I eventually fell in love and started downloading his songs too from the internet. I don't understand what the heck he's saying, but his songs does hit some chords within me. Lovely singer from that country I must say.

The question any civilized mind should be asking is this, what if there's an emergency and someone needs to access that road and the few minutes spent trying to get a detour put the other person in a more precarious situation?

An ambulance with an emergency trying to access this road can lead to delays and possibly death for the occupant.

I moved from a Kia Optima LX 2008 model over to Benz Kompressor and I can tell you that it's gonna be a Mercedes all the way for me. I recently took it on a 400km journey and it was so smooth. Between the Kia and the Mercedes, I can't really say that the Mercedes is damn expensive to maintain, mine came in with about 100k miles on the odometer when I received it. I haven't done much on the car asides servicing, changing front and rear lights (based on dashboard notifications).

Get a sound Mechanic to check the readiness of the car, then you can make an informed decision.

A Mercedes offers a whole lot of drive comfort, freaky nice car to drive.

Most of the problems you might encounter with this car is electronics related, you might have to be a DIY kinda guy. I replaced some fuses myself the other day. The fuse chart can be found on the side of the driver's areas, just pop the cover over and there it is. When replacing ur fuses always ensure you get the right rating for a replaced fuse.

There are Mercedes forums online that have been of great help to me. I actually love reading about my cars and in just about some months, I've known so much bout the car that I even tell my Mechanic some stuffs. I did a coolant replacement myself also. I just order the diagnostic kit for my Mercedes and I'll scan for errors myself, before visiting my Kazeem.

All in all, if you want to enjoy most modern cars especially in our clime, you need to read a bit about your car and get some background info about some common errors. There are tons of information online about every brand.

Stuffs like changing the battery on your automatic key, where you need to change the battery, when you're meters away from the Mercedes (not inside the car) to avoid frying some electronic components (I got this info online).

It is a w203, w204, w205...?
