That was an open-end question. The converse didn’t necessarily mean Buhari is doing better. Let the poster rephrase that question to something like “Do you think Buhari is a better president than GEJ?” and see how the votes will go

Hello gazzuzz,
The battery of the smart key (key fob) for my Toyota highlander 2008 keeps draining. I first changed the battery after driving the car for about 2 years. Recently, after about a year, the battery was flat, i got a replacement, it drained after few days. I got another type of battery which also drained after few days
i did the same and got the same result.
I have checked online and saw that it is a common problem but i couldn't get any tangible solution.
Kindly help.
Thanks

Another probable cause is if you keep your key within transmitting range all the time. I had similar problem and was advised that whenever i park the car, i should try to keep the key far away as possible from the car; that as long as the key is not within transmitting range, it would save battery. I did as advised, and my key fob battery has been ok for months. Now, it may be a mere coincidence because i also changed my battery just before i started this routine. Just give it a try

What kind of stupidity is this? You rescued a baby from traffickers, and put her picture online for the 'real' parent to come claim her. How can a 3-month old baby confirm to the police who her real parents are?... i think, not releasing her pictures would have been a better procedure.. i hope another baby trafficker won't come claim her again......

Diiet:

Innoson is the one handling this issue poorly.
He's the one playing the tribal card instead of providing details of how the repayment of the loan he took from the bank was made. His inability to do that is a pointer that he hasn't payback his debt?

GTB also leveled a deadly allegation against him, that he forged the signature of its staffs to secure some of his goods at the port.Believe me, no bank will be willing to be partner in business with him because of this.

The bolded: Are you making this up to add credence to your thoughts or the EFCC said this in their official statement?

stop being emotional.

Innoson is being investigeted for fraud and forgery. Read this article again.

Fraud is a verry serious offence.

Let him go and defend himself and stop crying for him online.

What about Barugate? Mainagate? Ikoyigate? The truth is that EFCCs actions are always one-sided. Even the acting boss was rejected by the senate, but he’s still running the affairs up till date. Is it that there is no other ‘crecible’ Nigerian alive to do that job? What is good for the geese is good for the ganders.

Tribalism will take you no where.
His wife was also seen as saying to the Efcc personnel "are you arresting him because he's igbo?, did you slap me because i'm Igbo ?
tribal sentiment is a no no. No tribe is above the law.


Can you sincerely say this for Maina, etc who even the president knows is a criminal? Why has he and others like him (from the north) not been arrested?

Middle finger to anyone who asks me for mileage! How important is mileage in Nigeria? In the US and Canada where most of these cars are bought from, mileage has and is never that much of a problem, car owners sell cars with 300k+ miles! Dealers are not compelled to tamper with their odometer reading to sell because noone gives a hoot about it and besides it's a felony, but in Nigeria, where fools abound, oversabis wanting to display their foolish intelligence will never stop at asking, what is the mileage? Glad Nigerian dealers will never stop at tampering with their odometer reading to get the buy-in of fools! What do you know about mileage? If that car is having its 2nd/3rd brand new engine, how does the mileage affect its performance? Hiding behind their phones and computers to type shit!

I understand your points and they are valid. However, if a potential buyer feels more at ease knowing the mileage of a car for sale, please put him at ease by all means. I know it can be frustrating sometimes....

Take the city of bayelsa as a case study, oil was 1st discovered in oloibiri , the place is nothing to write about. UAE don't even depend on oil as you think, UAE new goldmine is tourism
Don't use the population as an excuse, Nigeria has failed. look at China, despite the population, the housing sector has more houses, in fact there are many empty houses.

I totally agree with you. But just to add to the impression highlighted, Only Dubai (one of the 7 Emitatis) depend on Tourism.. the remaining 6 Emiratis are oil dependent..

What's the point going on with the wedding plans till the d-day just to display this. He's hurt but the clap back doesn't make sense even if he will file for a divorce after the wedding ceremony.

They probably hadn't consummated the marriage at the point the video was played. They probably were yet to say ''I do'' on the day of the event. So, technically he only went on with the marriage event but not the marriage itself..
Romance / Re: Your Partner Does Not Deserve Your TRUST And This is The Reason Why! by bigtalla(m): 3:48pm On Oct 01, 2017
It's unfortunate that a lot of people(couples especially) have narrowed trust to PHONE PADSWORD. It makes me wonder what was the basis of trust in the Pre-mobile phone era. I know a guy whose wife trusts him so much because he never locks his phone. She even brags about it to the wives of her husband's colleagues. I later understood this man has a spare phone he keeps in the booth of his car whenever he's home. The phone can be reached whenever he desires.

Now, can we say this man is trustworthy?
Politics / Protesters Storm US Embassy, Insist IPOB Is Terrorist Organisation by bigtalla(m): 1:35pm On Sep 30, 2017
A group of protesters under the aegis of the Coalition for the Defense of Nigeria's Sovereignty, hit the US embassy in Lagos on Friday,September 29.
Chief amongst the grouse of the placard wielding protesters was the United States' position that it doesn't yet consider the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) a terrorist organisation.

On September 20, a Federal High Court in Abuja granted the Federal Government an interim injunction proscribing IPOB, following recent skirmishes between separatists and the army in Southeast Nigeria.

The Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Abdul Kafarati, granted the injunction in chambers following an exparte application filed by Attorney General Abubakar Malami.


However, On September 24, a spokesperson for the American Embassy in Nigeria, Russell Brooks, told local newspaper, The Punch, that IPOB isn't yet proscribed within America's borders.

“The United States Government is strongly committed to Nigeria’s unity. Important political and economic issues affecting the Nigerian people, such as the allocation of resources, are worthwhile topics for respectful debate in a democracy.

“Within the context of unity, we encourage all Nigerians to support a de-escalation of tensions and peaceful resolution of grievances. The Indigenous People of Biafra is not a terrorist organisation under US law,” Brooks said.

In taking to the streets today, Otunba Bolaji Alabi who is National President/Convener of the Coalition, said the US erred in its position on the lingering separatist agitation in Nigeria.

"We are here today to protest against something that we know threatens not just our dear country, Nigeria, but also poses a risk to our culture as Yoruba. It is a culture we cherish as passionately as we respect our nationality as Nigerians", said Alabi.


He added that: "Our compatriots in south-east Nigeria, our Igbo brothers, have a challenge on their hands by way of some errant persons that are advocating for a forceful breakup of Nigeria. They are pursuing this evil enterprise under the name of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, which the Federal Government of Nigeria has properly designated to be a terrorist group. This decision has been confirmed by the court in accordance with what the anti-terrorism law prescribes.

"We were taken aback when the United States of America said IPOB is not a terrorist organization. We find the position of the United States abhorrent and highly condemnable in the light of the psychological and emotional trauma that this terrorist group has caused us collectively as a people. Even in the US, every single thing that members of this terrorist group have done in recent weeks will lead to jail terms.


"The United States should desist from making decisions from the comfort of its echo chamber, in which it only hears itself without the benefit of appreciating what the end recipients of the situation under consideration go through. In this regard, the hate speech hurled at Yoruba by IPOB members online alone qualify as terrorism. They have repeatedly referred to us as "yorobastards" "yoropigs" "yaribads"and other derogatory appellations.

"The disdain with which this terrorist organization hold us as a people was deplorable to the extent that IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, directed his members to kill Yoruba after branding us as colluding with the Hausa/Fulani.

"Below are a few instances of him threatening us as a people:

"No Igbo man should attend any Church where the pastor is a Yoruba man, they are criminals and fools"​;​ "Any Igbo Person who attends any Church Pastored by a Yoruba Man is an slowpoke"​;​ "Pastor Kumuyi should be stoned and dealt with thoroughly if he comes to Aba for his planned crusade"​;​ "Nigeria is a zoo and everybody living in that Godforsaken zoo deserves to die"​;​ "Nigeria should prepare for war, we are coming to annihilate you, my secret service are already studying the zoo and strategising."

"IPOB has also been attempting to recruit and radicalize Yoruba youths to create a version of the terror group in the south-west of Nigeria oblivious to our nationalistic spirit and staunch belief in the unity of Nigeria. It was these brainwashed youths that had unsuccessfully attempted making demands for Oodu'a Republic, which does not enjoy any backing among us.



"The culture of hate speech being promoted by IPOB, which it is teaching these youths is alien to us as we are taught to be respectful and considerate of other humans.

"We wonder what would be the fate of anyone that repeatedly incite others to violence through the promotion of hate speech and go the extra mile to actualize the threats as we witnessed in Rivers State when IPOB terrorists were stopping commercial buses and singling out non-Igbo passengers, including Yoruba, for attacks.

"These IPOB's activities have already negatively affected the economy and unleashed hardship on the population from which Yoruba are not immune. This situation is unacceptable and we do not see why any country will offer support to a terrorist group that is responsible for human suffering on this scale.

"We have decided as a people that our lot is in a united and indivisible Nigeria. It is inconceivable that we change who we are as Yoruba because some terrorists have been bolstered by the US. To be so insulted, derided, attacked and killed by IPOB terrorists for this conviction is unacceptable".

The Coalition for Nigeria's Sovereignty also added that the United States will be labelled a sponsor of terrorism in Nigeria if it doesn't review its position on IPOB.

Nnamdi Kanu, who leads the Indigenous People of Biafra movement, is a fierce critic of Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari.
"It was on this note that we commended the court's declaration of IPOB as a terrorist organisation; if the United States thinks and says otherwise then we have no option than to begin to treat that country as a state sponsor of terrorism.

"May we also point out that stakeholder may know the start of this contention but no one knows where it would head or where it would end. IPOB is already exporting its violence as seen in Bengaluru, India on September 24, 2017 when violence by members of the terror group left one person dead and property destroyed.

"The US is home to many Nigerians and it is a matter of time before IPOB export its violence to that country and we boldly warn the US to watch out in Houston, Texas, where IPOB has vibrant cells.

"Our thoughts are that the United States corrects its mistake within reasonable time so that IPOB would not use its position as an excuse to spread its violence and hatred to other parts of the world. We are closely monitoring to see how soon the US would do the right thing by distancing itself from a terror organisation that has the Yoruba in its cross-hairs".

The activities of IPOB have been banned in Igboland by Governors of the region.

The army has also taken a tough stance against the Nnamdi Kanu led group, labelling their actions as constituting terrorism.
