Some people have also reported that their power has increased. Especially the band A

Power ministry is complex which was explained in details by LordAdam16 and why people like Nnaji BolaIge Fashola Nebo Mamman have been unable to make a dent on it

All this one na koko inu ìwé ìròyìn. My reality is I've been blowing gen since morning and Ur guy no gree give us light despite having over 500 units on prepaid meter.

Shebi if he give us light the Discos will make money when we exhaust our unit and buy extra units 🤷‍♂️

Having watched Sherlock Holmes repeatedly, here's what happened

The White Benz was parked
The Keke was parked in front too.

The Prado sped into the queue, and before he realized how fast he was, he ran into both.

In front of filling station? 😂

Methinks the keke wanted to come out of the filling station quickly before he jam àgbákò.

What the benz and Prado drivers were thinking is what I don't know......

I think government should go test the brain of all 3 parties involved. The person wey him brain touch pass should be made to pay for the damages to other parties involved 😂

izzou:
All these "Adelabu has tried but" pick up lines, is just to whitewash him for his Governorship ambition.

Power is still epileptic.....

Very very epileptic.

Like Larride, I wish and hope the Adelabu guy would resign and go for his governorship ambition so someone else with fresh idea can take the mantle from him.


He's been disappointing thus far. Working at CBN didn't suddenly make him a problem solver in the power space at all

This frequent fire around that cms side
Wetin they sup

I worked in that axis for years, my office on marina was not far from most of the major markets ( Balogun, Idumota, òkè arin etc).

Two things I think may be cause of the frequent fire on that axis are :

1. The electric wiring of most buildings in that axis are defective. If u look up while passing some of those buildings and u see their electric wires, u can guess fire outbreak can happen as a result of those defective wiring that is even glaring to someone like me who knows little or nothing about electrical engineering.

2. Most shop owners and warehouse managers keep their generators on their floors instead of keeping it on the ground floor due to lack of space. Now if a generator sparks on the 5th floor with petrol stored on that same 5th floor, how do u want to extinguish it considering the buildings in that axis are closely clustered.

See, the solution to those fire outbreak is simple but unapalatable. That axis was not designed to be a market but events have overridden all that. If they want to stop all the fire outbreak, they should demolish those buildings and erect proper market stalls that are well planned with space allocated for generators and all that.

The truth is ; it will never happen!

If we talk now, Raumdeuter will say his friend Adelabu is the best performing minister in Nigeria since independence.

Today is Christmas and I've been blowing generator since morning. Imagine not having light on Christmas day of all days.

Thank God I took initiative to follow Egbon GloriousGbola method of stocking Jerry can of fuel keep for days like this

Baba why are you stating the obvious nah.
The emboldened is pretty obvious. It's a common knowledge that takers are always under more pressure than the goal keepers.

I used Messi because despite not being excellent at penalties, his record isn't that bad.

Now let's look at Ronaldo who is known for taking and scoring penalties. His record is among the best yet out of his 4 attempts Vs Diego Alves, he only scored once. Are you telling me that Ronaldo is bad at penalties because Alves stopped him from scoring 3 times out of 4 attempts? Or we can simply admire his skills at stopping PKs?

I reiterate, saving penalties is a skill and a psychological warfare that's why not all GKs are good at it. As a player you're more confident during penalties if Emi Martinez or Handanovic is ur GK compared to if Degea or Loris is ur GK.

I don’t think Anybody who watched Emi Martinez at the Last World Cup and beyond will argue whether saving penalty is a skill or not .

Some goalkeepers are just specialists in saving penalty irrespective of how good the penalty taker is . The way they dive even for the pk they concede will tell you such keepers are specialist in saving pk .

I have a list of 3 people who worked with Buhari whom I expected not to escape jail if they are well investigated by the incoming government .

Malami, Emefiele and Hadi Sirika were visibly corrupt and one could guess if they are properly investigated they would be serving lengthy years in jail at the end of the investigation .

Why did Guehi not celebrate that late equalizer sef? Does he have any past or future affiliation with Arsenal?

IJGBs too overdo. In Lagos, dem don make products and services unaffordable for the home-based.

Every time, dem go set camera. GRWM as I go to the salon to get my braids done for $50. Come with me to get my nails done for $30 GRWM as I visit my fashion stylist for my asoebi outfit. The result:

Lip Gloss - 70k
Braiding of hair - 200k.
Fixing of nails - 277k
Doing make up - 500k
Medium-grade ankara boubou - 200k
Shortlet apartment for 11 nights - £9000 (N17.5m)

etc etc

Truly, many Nigerians vendors/service providers dey greedy and exploitative but IJGB too contributed to this price hike madness by turning their visit into flex olympics and trying to impress online strangers.

Many salons. hotels, malls and shops dey for area wey IJGB fit waka into and pay reasonable prices but dem no go go those places. Dem dey find the ones with marble floors, gigantic mirrors, screeded walls that are aesthetically pleasing to shoot content in.

Me, I cannot relate sha. I left Lagos years ago. My barber dey barb my hair for 1k. My daughter and wife made their hairs on Sunday. Wifey fixed her nails too. It was home-service and they spent about 10k.

At this rate. make everybody just forget about Detty December and go their villages go dey chase fowl.

I don't blame the vendors at all. It's all about demand and supply na ; and then the social media angle u mentioned.

The GRWM videos flying everywhere has a very strong connection to how vendors now price their services so high this period but the fact that we have people willing to pay those prices will leave the vendors smiling to the bank and some home based Nigerians fuming.

My spouse wanted us to do family Christmas pyjamas shoot. She made inquiry from the guy who did our wedding shoot and I was seeing the price ranging from ₦120k, ₦180k, ₦250k and ₦300k depending on the package u choose 😂

I just told her to fall back to the guy who did our maternity shoot because that one's price was still reasonable compared to all these ones wey Wan collect my 4 years tuition fees through university in one sitting just to snap and edit our pishures

I'm sure when the season ends vendors will fall back to default settings, some of them will even use promotional offers and discounts to nearly wound-jure their home based customers when patronage drops.

GloriousGbola:
Well it is the price of being a celebrity

Nigerian paparazzi in the social media age.

And with the way our celebrities pursue social media clout I am sure they have no issue with this

So because some celebrities like clout, me wey no like clout must bear the brunt by allowing some random person to film me in my private moment and post me on his page without my consent?

I can understand if I go for an event and I see photographers and paparazzi falling over themselves to take pictures and create content. But u driving at a roundabout and having to deal with camera poking into Ur car to see what U have going on at that moment just seem a bit upsetting for me Sha

izzou:
So, a family has a property at Ojuelegba. LASG wanted to use there as a bus terminal, so they demolished it.

Guess how much they are offering as compensation? #23 million

I know the government is always right sha.

https://guardian.ng/news/falana-imoudu-family-reject-lagos-govts-n23m-compensation-for-land-valued-n250m/

Sometimes I get amused when I see people defending government's actions both here and on the internet generally. I see them defend land grabbing by government without paying fair compensation as the law prescribes and some of them will even be quiting laws they don't even understand its practical application.

When u tell people that government can take over a property with all documentations complete, they will Sneer at you and make it seem like u are making a false assumption just to call the government a bad name.

Government takes over a land in a place like Ojuelegba In Lagos, instead of paying a fair compensation they are offering 23 million that will not even buy the same quantity of land in a place like Ipaja, Ayobo, Abule Ẹ̀gbá or Egbeda.

Government will rather spend millions upon millions in court as legal fees than pay the fair compensation for the land which the same government approved all title documents.

Sometimes I think the punishment God gave to Nigerians is wicked Nigerians embedded in government and civil service. Imagine the Lawyers handling the case on behalf of the family had to be appealing to the governor of the state to intervene at an event organized to celebrate the patriarch of the family which the Lagos state government was an active participant......😭

BlueRayDick, have you seen this?
It has happened, finally.

I saw it coming from the day I read they imposed an indisposed man as chairman and the son as vice chairman.

Congratulations to their family.

Goodluck to the people who served the father and will continue to serve the son long after the father may have exited the political scene. Hopefully the crumbs from the family's table will be enough for their good governance needs

I can't but find this "car spotting" nonsense disturbing and breach of people's privacy .🤦‍♂️

You will be driving peacefully at a roundabout or at the entrance gate of a public building like club, event center or hotel and boom! Camera gets flashed on Ur face with a handful of guys shouting Ur name on top of their voice hailing you so they can make content to post on their social media pages without Ur consent.

Nazgul:
Hello chief, please I wanted to ask… how is Lagos Land Use Charge calculated for house owners, how is it paid, and what determines the amount payable each year?

Land use charge is determined by applying the applicable land use charge rate to the market value of Ur building. There are a different rates depending on the usage of Ur property.

The current rates are as follows :

1.Owner occupied property( i.e u own Ur building and u didn't rent any part of it out) - 0.076% of market value of the property.

2. Commercial/Rental property (i.e u own Ur building but u rented it out to tenants for residence) - 0.76% of market value of the property

3. Industrial property - 0.256% of value of the property.

NB : you can get reliefs if u file for it. For example u can get reliefs for being a pensioner but u must file documents with the the land use charge people evidemving this befor the apply those reliefs to reduce Ur land use charge liability. That is why different people pay different land use charge despite having the same property type

izzou:
I believe these matches start around afternoon. Maybe 4pm or so.

I want to believe that if I begin my journey by 7am, I can be in Osun on time to watch the match. I'm talking of leaving Lagos, talk less of someone in Ogun.

My point is, if you want to experience these things, you can. While it is true that people earn way less to actually enjoy these games, that example is way overboard for someone who earns within that range

You will still need that hotel room because when the match ends around 6pm, you won't leave Osun to enter road back to Lagos or Ogun State without fear of road accident/insecurity

izzou:
Good point

But you can go directly to the stadium from Ogun, on Match day. After the match, spend a night, and come back the next day.

I'm just suggesting sha, for someone who wants to reduce their expenses

Traffic and time spent on the road will rubbish that idea. Unlike the UK where u can take a train ride from one end of the country to another for few pounds, if u want to trave from Ogun to Ekiti state u will spend a lot of time on the road and will end up spending serious money too.

GasAndOilTheory:
If you are a supporter of Gateway, Travelling from ogun state capital to Osun state capital is 11k. Hotel accommodation, is around 40k.. Feeding for a 2 days and taxing to the stadium cost around 13k...after the match, I'll go back to ogun state with another 12k

And the salary Is 70k per month .

Thank you, I'll stay at home and watch correct score

You hit the nail on the head with this illustration 💯

The truth is Africans are poor and the income of an average African cannot finance the "luxury" of seeing these matches be it AFCON or regular intercity local league matches.

In contrast, most people living in European cities can sacrifice a day or two days wages to see their local or national team play, but here Ur full month salary sef cannnit afford U that luxury. If u decide to address these issues, our own people will bring brain dead arguments to defend our level of poverty and u will just have to give up.

Do these apps have access to your phone's microphone?

I was once on a call with someone, and the person mentioned a particular candy, and we laughed it off

The next thing I see is the ad of that same candy on Facebook immediately I ended the call.

What are the odds?

Personally I think tbey do.

I believe Ur phone is on standby listening mode because that's the only way I can explain how Siri responds and takes action the very moment u say " Hey siri" on iOS devices.

Methinks whatever is responsible for Siri responding in an instant is also listening on Ur conversation. Something tells me we must have agreed to those terms when we were setting our new phones up. You know those long terms and conditions we always skip and click "I agree"? I believe there must be mention of those terms in it

I read about Dave Chappelle on this thread and next thing he's appearing on my TikTok FYP. The algorithm is...,..

You have obviously set Ur TikTok app to "Allwo app to track online activities " when u set it up.

I don't know about Android, but on iOS if u install an app like TikTok or any other app, when u are stying it up if will will prompt you if u want to allow the app to track Ur online activities. If u allow, the app's algorithm can pick up Ur online activities and start suggesting similar interests to u the next time u open the app.

For apss like FB, IG and WhatsApp that have the same owners it's even worse. If u search something on IG, FB no go let u rest with suggestions about that same subject matter for the next few days

On Zubimendi and Rice being overworked..

1. It could be due to fatigue. Zubimendi rarely partakes in full training nowadays just to manage his load.

2. Arsenal with Gabriel at the back is a different team. Our defence has become weaker in the last couple of weeks so Rice staying back to cover the defence is understandable. With Saliba at the back yesterday, Rice was able to venture forward a bit (the pass to Trossard and a shot at the edge of the box). Even Zubimendi did hit the post from the edge of the box as well. You tend to take more risk when you're assured there's a 'rock' at the back.

We should be more concerned about the attackers and Odegaard especially.

Attack will cook once Arteta figures out when and how to use Gyokeres/Jesus/Merino , Eze/Odegaard and Trossard/Madueke/Martinelli. As for Saka, there's actually no one that can bench him in the squad except in cup matches.

iamoyindamola:
Nah
That is sarcasm in full play here
He knows he doesn't have any proof so he ended it in a twisted manner

I didn't call it sarcasm.

I said he unravel the thought process of a typical conspiracy theorist. That is actually conspiracy theorist move ; they look for just any little point and start making allegations upon assumptions without having any evidence to back it up and end up presenting it as facts.

For example Arthur Eze may have schooled at a time when Communism was fashionable and like most people who were in student union back then may have adored Hugo Chavez and other communists hence why he bought a portrait that has their face on it. A conspiracy theorist will never be satisfied with that simple explanation, he will assume it is a symbol of the man paying homage to drug mules which should automatically mean he's one. (Even when there's no evidence that suggests that).

I actually align with the points the guy passed with that video

I find this video very thought provoking!!!! So crazy you still wonder if he’s being sarcastic. Social engineering is a thing and people have mastered the art!pic.twitter.com/SvR6T73tAC
