According to what Mrs Emegwa chidimma posted on her facebook page, she narrated how her daughter shaved the hair she has been nursing for so long.
She wanted her daughter to plait the hair so as to make her look good this December but she cut the hair by herself...
Hilarious indeed.
uncle lalasticlala,mynd44 do justice to this

I'm not here to criticize people's view about okorocha giving his civil servant a week Christmas holiday but to justify that nothing is wrong with that. If you missed the earlier story, you can read it using this link Okorocha Gives Imo Workers 18-Day Christmas Holidayi will highlight the supportive points one after the other

Nigeria civil service is Unproductive :Only if we are going to deceive ourselves, we all know that our civil services are as useless as used tissue paper. Go to most ministries in Nigeria, they are characterised with absenteeism,,irregularities, corruption and more. Imagine, most workers in state payroll are ghost workers especially at local government level. For instance ,I wanted to collect my local government attestation, it took me more than 4days to process. You will be hearing different stories like, the secretary is not on seat, the attestation has finished etc. I'm not saying all these are right but Since it's like this, let the civil servant enjoy their holiday to the fullest

3working days is not too much:Apart from the normal National holiday which span through 25-26 for Christmas and boxing day, the imo state government only added 27,28,29.
Arab countries like Saudi Arabia gives their citizens more than a week holiday to celebrate el-dekabir every year
In my own view, it's only[b] monday-Thursday[/b] that I see as the working days in Nigeria civil service, you and I know that Friday is indirectly a self made holiday for most of our civil servant. For me, the break is just a 2days break which cannot run down the economy of the state


Some agencies are exempted from this break: Agencies such as health, fire services, finance and securities are all exempted from this break .
These agencies are exempted from the break just because of emergency situation. You never can tell, emergency situation can arise and these parastatals are the antidote to them... Kudos to okorocha for exempting them

It's not 18days but 3days :18days As speculated by many is false, it's only 3days added to the Normal general holiday

To make his people happy: Why blaming okorocha why our government officials give themselves much break than the civilians. Imagine the NASS has started their break yesterday and will resume for their next plenary session on the 11th of January 2018.which impunity do they have that the civil servant does not have...



You can criticise the view of you're not contended with my points.

deco22:
All this fake news sef,where is the evidence of people closing their account...

And even if it's true I have to say Igbos are starting to behave sentimentally without thinking of what they are doing..

So what's the end game now? mtcheww

Is true. many of my friends called me earlier to inform me about the latest development....
This is not a sentimental issue, it's just a way of showing this witch-hunters to desist from their behavior

Ever8054:
na waooooo......anyway let them take there gala and lacasara savings to another bank.....playing the Igbo card in everything that happens is becoming annoying.....

Let them wait till when 70% of igbos will withdraw their money from Gt, then you will see their business booming,.... NONSENSE

Nice one. #boycott GTB.. Useless bank

My contacts present say it was like the last supper.

Baba was looking at his ministers and wondering which of them will betray him to Atiku.
Some of them were asked to appraise his government and the public perception of it.

Petrol scarcity was also discussed.
Well,

Buhari obviously has supposed good intentions and a willing heart to lead Nigeria.
But it's too late,

The dullard must go in 2019.

lalasticlala, help us move this to fp

Let's talk about this present issue lingering in this country.

I heard that the fg through nnpc has sent fuel to several places in the country but the price of the commodity is still high.

Although the queue has reduced drastically different but some filling stations are still hoarding the fuel. Why? is it because of Christmas or just wickedness?
Why is it that we are wicked to ourselves in this country?

Here in Minna, some filling stations are selling at the rate of #175 while few filling stations such as bovas and total are selling at the official rate

Let's share our opinion

Comedian igodye took to his instagram account to blast former vice president Atiku Abubakar.
Recall, Atiku is one of the few people having the ambition of becoming the next president of nigeria

Here's what he said about him

There are a wide variety of combustion engines out there but most don’t divert too far from the conventional setup. The combustion of a fuel in a chamber produces force by expanding the high-temperature, high-pressure gases inside and that force is directly passed on to some component of the engine. The output is typically some form of rotation, be it turbine blades or the pistons and crankshaft of an automobile

Presently, Toyota have concocted an instinctive new setup that has no crankshaft at all and which produces three-phase electricity. They’ve named it Free Piston Engine Linear Generator , the “free” alluding to the absence of a crankshaft connected to the pistons. On the power stroke of the cycle, the constrain delivered in the load drives the pistons to push perpetual magnets through a curl around the barrel load, which produces electricity through electromagnetic induction.


The idea is the combination of two well known processes, combustion engines and electromagnetic induction, but why the excitement of such a simple idea? Well, the guys over at Toyota claim it has a thermal efficiency of 42%, a decent improvement considering the maximum thermal efficiency of modern automobile combustion engines is a round 25-30%.

The engine can be powered sparkless through a diesel cycle or run on standard gasoline. The video shows a two stroke cycle which may spoil its chances of seeing use in automobiles as two stroke engines are known for their increased emissions, but Toyota have claimed that a twin unit design with a 20 kW output should be able to power a light sedan to cruise at 75 mph (120 kph).

You may be wondering how the piston will return to its position seeming there is no rotating crankshaft and the answer is simple, a gas spring placed at the end of the chamber will provide the force to compress the gases once again. A single unit would have some serious vibrational issues and so a twin unit design means that the two pistons can cancel each other out and provide balance. It’s also worth noting that there are no complex rotating balances required due to the lack of a crankshaft.

They have even gone ahead and produced a 2 foot long prototype, 8 inches in diameter, that can produce 15 hp. The design is theoretically scalable to something that can produce a larger power output but we’re still a long way away from that time, but we are eager to see where Toyota go with this.
