BBNaija star, Tboss, has written an emotional message to her late father, Idowu Vincent.

Tboss wasn't really in good terms with her dad before his demise.

Recall that her father placed a 'curse' on her and any man that will marry her.

Putting everything behind her, Tboss shares throwback photos of her late dad and photos from his burial and writes:

Oooh wao.....well can you state here clearly what you submitted? Documents, account balance, budget etc That would help us all guide you on the next step to take

Horlaidey007:
Please look at what is written on the front page. No explanation whatsoever..

Exactly my thoughts ...the welding is poor, just done to barely tack the inner panel together. Just a blast will undo them. If I talk now, people will start insulting, if we are to get it right in the automotive industry, we need the right tools and knowledge about how to do these things. The other day some guy came up with formular one kind of vehicles made by him, vehicle that did not go through necessary vehicular tests or standards but yet will be on our roads soon. Toh

Yes you have every right to information regarding your application but it also appears to me that you did not display the content of the first page where the reasons and documentations you submitted leading to the decision taken are usually noted. The displayed page only shows under what government act their decision was based on.

Advise Needed!!! This Happened In My Neighborhood

Good morning Nairalanders,

Some strange things are happening nowadays.
There is this man in my neighborhood who is having carnal knowledge of his own daughter. He has been cautioned some time ago to which he denied and after some confrontation he confessed to it and promised never to do it again.

This girl in question was then taken away from his vicinity to avoid repetition of such only to find out few weeks back that she has returned.

Now the problem is that the man has started again and this time around the wife caught them in the act but pretended not to see it. She reported it to my brother who told me about it and we called the man immediately to let him know what he is doing. He found out that the information was revealed by the wife and then started beating her.

Please what do you think we can do to help the poor girl and savage the situation.

PS
Pardon my way if reporting.
Mods please help loud this.

Sad and the funny thing is that he might have been eating there for long and been behaving nastily to the mai-shai before that day. We tend to belittle people because of their tribe, religious or political inclination.

You ordered food and fel its stake, no need hitting the seller with a stick. An Hausaman would just mumble baakomi if you refused to pay.

grandstar:
You dupe people of thousands of dollars and it does not bother your conscience one bit.

Because you felt cheated by just 100 Naija for stale bread, you refused to pay. Common 100 Naija you can't forgo. That's what real men do. They complain and simply walk away.

If you wan die over 100 Naira, what of those people you drove to bankruptcy?

Rest In Peace (Ecclesiastes 9:5,10)

But nothing in the news story indicates that the Hausa men were released or awarded national honors for their deeds

The mention of the internet fraud attributes to the deceased is wrong but perhaps done to indicate the notoriety of the deceased in the area but notwithstanding is not the best.

Let's not try to fan the amber's of tribal/religious hatred amongst ourselves.

obiekunie2:
NOW SEE HOW THEY CHANGED THE STORY BECAUSE NA HAUSA WEY DEY INVOLVED.!




SO ITS OK FOR THE GUY TO BE KILLED BY ABOKI BECAUSE HE IS AN "ALLEGED INTERNET FRAUDSTER"!

WETIN RELATE HIM BEING AN INTERNET FRAUDSTER WITH THE STORY?


THE WAY THE POLICE SHIELD THESE NORTHERNERS YOU WILL GET TO BELIEVE THEY ARE THE ONLY TRUE NIGERIANS.

Kibera is the largest slum in Narirobi and the largest urban slum in Africa. It is located in the south west of Nairobi, about 5 km from the city centre in Kenya.

The former Nigerian minister of Finance shared a post on her Facebook page about her visit to Kibera.

This kind of rapid urbanisation brings serious challenges: inadequate housing, overcrowding, poor sanitation, and grinding poverty. It also exacerbates a number of health issues such as the pressing need for immunisation strategies geared to urban populations.

https://i2.wp.com/www.editorialtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/FB_IMG_1574961769946.jpg?w=720

I applaud the dedication and commitment of health workers like Joy - a young woman who is continuing her mother’s legacy by supporting the delivery of immunisation and other essential health services to Kibera residents. CDC Kenya, Kenya Medical Research Institute, Amref Health Africa and Carolina for Kibera.

A crucial step in meeting the immunisation needs of the urban poor is to use data to uncover obstacles to vaccine access. This will help to map the reality on the ground and clearly identify inequities. Knowing where our efforts are best spent brings us closer to ensuring that everyone – no matter where they live – is healthy and thriving".

This happened to me once and I had to call the customer service desk and also sent them DM on Twitter before they 'refreshed' the 4G service on the SIM Card and bingo, I got 4G. You might need to call them as the sometimes the Glo Office staff may not have provisioned the SIM card correctly. I hope this helps

veekid:
except you're working for Glo, you don't know what you're saying. I've been to Glo offficd three good times to complain, and each and every time, they changed my Glo sim for me. It's stil not working. Call 400 kor, call buhari ni. The one that's showing 4G on my wife's phone, na atiku I call instead of the 400

Brazil finish top of Group D after lopsided win

Rain wasn't the only thing in the air during the final group stage match of the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup Paraguay 2019, as the goals also poured in as Brazil finished at the top of Group D with ease.

Mauricinho and Lucao put Brazil ahead before Egan-Osi Ekujumi gave the Super Sand Eagles a glimmer of hope with his tidy finish.

Rodrigo added a third with a driven left-footed finish into the far corner, but Nigeria were back to within one again when captain Azeez Abu carved out a one-on-one chance and finished confidently past Mao. However, Lucao got his second on the night with a precise volley.

Brazil pulled away completely in the third period as Rodrigo completed a hat-trick, highlighted by an impressively-high bicycle kick, while Bokinha scored a brace and Rafinha, Bruno Xavier, Catarino and Filipe all got on the scoresheet.

Brazil will face Russia in the quarter-finals after the Russians finished in second place in Group C.

Absolutely!

naptu2:
It's actually both, not either or.


1) Nigeria needs to make its ports and methods of transporting goods more efficient. We've all seen the long line of trucks that took over all the approaches to Apapa and Tin Can Island ports. People should be able to easily move goods to and from the ports. In this regard, the return of the rail lines into the port (via the new Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge line) will help.


2) The bureaucratic bottlenecks that hamper clearing of goods from the ports is another issue. Hopefully this will be tackled with the Ease of Doing Business policy.

3) The reform of the Customs Service is absolutely important, particularly with regards to improving aerial surveillance and reducing corruption.

4) But it's also important that there's cooperation between both governments, particularly in the area of the repackaging of goods from Asia. I think that Nigeria should also get Ecowas involved because it is a violation of the Ecowas protocol. I don't think that either Obasanjo or Buhari believes that closure of the border is the solution to the problem (it isn't). Rather they both closed the border as a means to force Benin Republic to the negotiation table. In Obasanjo's case, the closure of the border forced Benin to hand over Amani Tidjani and the agree to a joint border force.

Exactly! Reforming the Customs Services is just one of many policies they would need to reform.

Durchmann:
I agree with your suggestions but we have to look at the situation on ground.

Benin and Togo can actually adapt to whatever measures we place to provide better port services. It's just like an army fighting against a militant unit using guerrilla warfare. It's difficult to curtail such strategies.

In my opinion, I would advise Government to reform the Customs Services with new and better work regulations and ethics.

There should be a carrot and stick approach to how customs officers are administered. I don't see why contraband goods should still be found in our markets and officers and men of the Customs guarding a certain border get their take home pay intact. We need to change the working rules of the Customs Service (and even the civil service at large) in order to effectively challenge and gradually stifle the crooked nature of the system. Prosecution is not enough.

On a good day, I will drop practical measures we can utilise to do this.

Atouke:
The 25km 4 lane dual carriage way linking uyo the capital city of Akwa ibom state to Ikot Ekpene the major city in the Northern senatorial district of the state has progressed to an advance stage.
23km of the road has been completed and the last 2km will be completed by December 2019, according to the contractor handling the project. Nigerias best, Julius Berger ltd.
This is an akwa ibom state government project.

It is now possibe to see the terminal point of the road which is at the four point by Sheraton hotel from the construction site.
This road will cut the distance from both cities to less than 15 minutes by car.

The akwa ibom state government is also poised to link Uyo to the capital city to Eket the capital of the southern Senatorial district of the state with an equally important 4 lanes dual carriage way. To open up the state for easy access to investors and commerce.
That work is also at advanced stage and will be completed early 2020.

Thanks Durchmann ......I agree absolutely but its because the government made it that way. If they can decongest the ports, make clearing faster and stress-free, trust me no amount of reduction the Togolese or Beninoise make to their port charges will make our businessmen still embrace their ports.

The savings made from the reduction at Togo/Benin end is spent on transporting by road to the final destination in Nigeria. This would be cheaper if Nigeria make port clearing seamless and stress-free like Togo and Benin offers. The government is the main enabler of smuggling in Nigeria. Review your policies and see if smuggling would be attractive.

Durchmann:
Very explicit.


Bigtt76 , the highlighted is actually for you.

I wanted to respond to your suggestion on reformed port operations but Naptu2 did it faster. Here lies the reason why we have serial border closures from time to time.

I mean ...its a simpu sturv

Same thing with tax payments in Nigeria, make it easy for people to self assess themselves online, pay online and generate their tax clearance certificate online but no ....they must come to your office and you to theirs to pay and struggle to collect tax clearance certificate ....why won't people shun paying


[quote author= post=84401119]You are making a lot of sense here sis.[/quote]

I don't mean the Nigerian traders in Benin but rather Nigeria-based big time importers/traders. Interesting but that would be a risky speculation for the Beninoise/Lebanese/Indian billionaires if not backed by collaborations between them and the Nigerians. They don't just export to the markets in Nigeria and wait for the Nigerian businessmen to come and buy ....that's my point, coupled with the fact that the ports in Nigeria is crazily slow thereby making the Benin ports the best choice.

Okoroawusa:
Have you been to Benin Republic?...there are billionaire beninoise who are importers coupled with Indians n Lebanese... Nigerians there are merely traders

Look at these people.... US government has been on this man's tail since 2010 stop politicizing your travails.

The leader of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, Ralph Uwazuruike, says President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government is masterminding the persecution the Chairman of Air Peace, Allen Onyema.
He further alleged that they are using the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC to carry out the plot.
Uwazuruike, who stated this while speaking with journalists insisted that the planned probe was not only a ‘witch-hunt against Onyema but persecution against the Igbo race.’
He was reacting to a statement by Buhari’s Special Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, calling on the Air Peace boss to face his charges in the United States, Daily Post reports.
Insisting that Onochie spoke the mind of the presidency, Uwazurike warned that Igbos will rise against any plan to humiliate Onyema.
Uwazuruike, who is also the leader of the Biafran Independent Movement (BIM), said: “There are lots of prominent people in this country whom the civil society organisations have even petitioned the EFCC against over alleged money laundering and the commission has not probed them.
He said “I am an Igbo and it is my responsibility to defend Igbos which Onyema is one of them and I tell you that I have all is takes to resist FG from persecuting my people.
“We have been pushed to the wall by the federal government and Onyema’s case will prove a point, so he should not be intimidated and must remain firm.”
The US State Department of Justice (DoJ), in a statement posted on its website on Friday, said Air Peace Chief of Administration and Finance, Ejiroghene Eghagha, has also been charged with bank fraud and committing aggravated identity theft in connection with the scheme.
But, reacting, Onyeama said all money transferred to the US went through the CBN, adding that the allegations were false and were in no way in line with his character as a person and as a businessman.

I don't understand all these Bénin this Bénin that.... Bénin are not that rich enough to just import goods and export to Nigeria to make money? Rather we the Nigerians are the ones using Bénin as the launchpad to import and send to Nigeria. The reason is simple faster ort clearing, improve on this and see if anyone would use Bénin ports again. I taya sef

kahal29:
Former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has told Nigeria’s west coast neighbour, Benin Republic, to mend its ways for a harmonious bilateral relationship between the two countries.

Obasanjo gave the charge during a news briefing on the margins of Policy Dialogue of African Business Associations on Implementing the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Agreements in Addis Ababa, yesterday.

He explained that Benin’s notoriety was not new, as Nigeria had for long been enduring the practice which undermined its economic well being.

“It happened when I was president of Nigeria. I called the then Benin President, Nicephore Dieudonne Soglo, to let us meet at any of our border posts over the issue.

“We eventually met at Badagry (in Nigeria), where we agreed that Nigerian Customs would be stationed in Benin.

“They (the Nigerian Customs) are still there. We don’t have issues with goods manufactured in Benin; they are welcome.

“But as long as Benin allow dumping of goods, there will always be problem with Nigeria,” Obasanjo said.

He noted that the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) was not created to allow one country to turn itself to a dumping ground.

The two-day policy dialogue was co-organised by the African Union (AU) African Development Bank (AfDB), African Export-Import Bank (AFREXIMBANK), the AfroChampion Initiative and the Coalition of Dialogue Africa (CoDA).

On AfCFTA, Obasanjo, who is the Chair of the CoDA Board of Directors, said the execution of the agreements was crucial to its success and sustainability.

“The intense support AfCFTA has received from various member states is a clear indication of its importance.

“CoDA is highly engaged to seeking success of AfCFTA and other multilateral agreements. CoDA work is informed and guided by the notion that no one has monopoly of ideas,” he said.

He urged for more actions, beyond words, adding that with fragmented 55 markets, Africa would remain small player in global market place.

In his welcome address, AU Commissioner, Department of Trade and Industry, Mr Albert Muranga, called for a change of attitude on the continent if the goals of AfCFTA was to be attained.

“A new mindset is necessary. One country should not be going west and the other going east. All of us should be going in one direction.

“For AfCFTA and our dreams of African integration to meet with success, it requires cooperation from all stakeholders,” he said.

Muranga also restated the fears as espoused by members of the organised private sector on the dangers ahead of AfCFTA, assuring that such fears also enjoy the attention of the framers of the AfCFTA initiaive.

According to him, such fears include stability, predictability, fairness, corruption and enabling environment.

Other participants included the Co-chair of the Executive Committee, AfroChampion Initiative, Dr Edem Adzogenu, and Chief Economist/Director, Research and International Cooperation, AFREXIMBANK, Dr Hippolyte Fofack.

How long have you been employed at the salary you quoted? Or better still, can you account for the deposit balance you presented based on your current salary? Also proposing to spend half of your annual salary on a 6 days trip will not fly.
