Foreign AffairsRe: Mauritania Dissolves 76 Political Parties For ‘Being Too Small’ by bodejohn(m): 3:03am On Mar 07, 2019
Macnnoli4:
In 2015, the parties without any political position to their name were de-registered by INEC and disallowed from participating in the 2015 elections but the parties have rebounded again as at 2019
Wrong info...

Gani Fawehinmi sued INEC in 2002 and the number of parties have grown since then...

The mad rush to form political parties in Nigeria is a phase of our democratic development that I believe will soon pass...
We must not easily forget the reason INEC allowed the multi party system but Nigerians are always willing to exploit the flexibility of our laws.

This system has given us a LP governor, YPP senator elect and numerous house of assembly members, it has also reduced the number of politically motivated killings in the race for party nomination.

The US whose political system we imitate has about 40 political parties with the option of independent candidature, out of which only two have won presidential elections for close to 170 years.

Our laws should be reviewed further to allow for independent candidates since as it stands now only aspirants sponsored by a political party can stand in an election.

And how sure are you that 29million was actually 29million?
If you have a different figure you can please share...
PoliticsRe: Buhari's Victory: A Proof God Does Not Exist. by bodejohn(m): 4:13am On Feb 27, 2019
Isaacmacdon:
So, now, I want to ask you? What proof do you have that the citizens failed to come out to vote in mass? Or, didn't you know that even if they did, this current government had a way of check-mating that?
The proof is that only 29 million came out from more than 80 million registered citizens, that's about 35%.
Can you proof that anyone prevented those who came out from voting?

There is a growing number of people especially youths who care less about the process of electing their leaders but will later come around to complain about their leaders.

I laugh when people push the narrative that the CJN was removed because of the litigation that might arise from the outcome of these elections...

The supreme court usually adjudicate with a panel of judges...even if the former CJN was not removed, he would have to read the majority judgement and there can also be a minority ruling if there are dissenting views...

Nigeria as a country has vested absolute powers in the office of the president and absolute power they say corrupts absolutely...

What of Rev. Fr. Mbaka's God who told Peter Obi that his romance with Atiku was going to end in disgrace?

Did we at anytime ever wonder why the countries we started nationhood together had since left us behind?
While the citizens of those countries rolled up their sleeves and began working towards making their nations great...
We folded our hands, knelt down and started praying...

Even one of the major holy books advocate working before praying not praying before working or praying and praying as we are used to...

PoliticsRe: 2019 Presidential Election Results Announcement By Mahmood Yakubu, INEC (Part 2) by bodejohn(m): 12:46am On Feb 27, 2019

After the results from all states, APC won the 2019 presidential election.
APC won 19 states
PDP won 18 states (FTC is included)

APC had total votes of 15,191,847
PDP had total votes of 11,262,978
Difference in votes is 3,928,869

Total Valid Votes is 27,324,683
Total Rejected Votes is 1,289,607

By my own calculation done with excel, APC has a total of 15,263,857 votes.
If you have the figures on excel, you could check again.

All other figures you posted are on point, Good Job!
PoliticsRe: Angry Man Insults Buhari and supporters On Live Interview. by bodejohn(m): 7:39pm On Feb 26, 2019
God punish him? Is that all?

Zero action, just running to the cover of (God) religion all the time...

A nation so improverised by the ruling class can only bring an average 35% of the total number of eligible voters out during a presidential election to perform their Civic responsibilities...

How exactly is he expecting God to purnish him?

PoliticsRe: Atiku’s Greatest Mistake by bodejohn(m): 2:39am On Feb 26, 2019
zomby:
The igbos were ready to vote for Atiku (PDP) regardless of his running mate.

A good percentage of Yorubas were also ready to vote for him

But the north wasn’t going to vote for Atiku/ Obi against Buhari. It is completely impossible. Atiku would have been better off with a strong running mate from Kano or Sokoto.
They indeed were...as confirmed by the massive turnout of voters he (Atiku) received from the SS & SE...

2. Atiku miscalculated by picking Obi as his running mate..He should have picked a fresh blood from the north.

One bottle of cold Orijin for you.
Thanks for the offer but a bottle of water is just good enough.

The problem of leadership in Nigeria is not only about the people who are leading or the party that is in power, it is about capacity and capability.
We've had postponed elections since 2011, that's eight to twelve years and for all the good reasons...

In about 60 years of our existence as an independent nation, we have been unable to provide health facilities, security, power, education and other necessary infrastructure for growth yet we want to produce a credible election in just 4 years, we should actually be surprised if everything had gone right last Saturday...

I could remember a package I didn't receive on time... It has no tracking no and I asked for a refund... Days after have been refunded, post office now called me to come for the package...
I had same experience too in Ibadan.

Oga, Aliexpress will refund him. Its there debt. They will be the one to probe nipost not the buyer. After you collect any package that have tracking no from post office, nipost will update there website and when you check that tracking no on the website, it will show that the goods have been received by the owner.
Since he's yet to receive the goods, it will show product not delivered on nipost website.
If delivery period have elapsed,
It's up to aliexpress to find the package or refund.
Thanks jare...

He will even be refunded even if the package does not have online tracking.

He will be refunded even if he decided not to go to the Post office to claim the package...

czarina:
And Aliexpress will refund him abi? For something that got to Nigeria and even reached the post office? Nawa for you o
You don't need all the subtle insults...

The post office cannot prove that he has received the items...the receiver has to sign when percels are claimed.

He will be fully refunded as long as he didn't collect the item. The post office is even expected to return the items if it is unclaimed after a period of time.

AliExpress is a global company managing the shipping millions of parcels every week, this issue will not be strange as parcels get mixed up in transit.

Most, if not all the parcels are insured, refunds to the buyer is not an issue once it's confirmed the items were not delivered, damaged or not as described.

Did you read the post at all? It got to Nigeria and they misplaced it there. You want him to shift the blame to Aliexpress? Nigerians ehn!
You probably did not read or understand my response.
Did the receive the item? No!!!

How exactly did I ask him to shift the blame to Aliexpress for an item that he did not receive irrespective of where it got missing?
BusinessRe: (RESOLVED) NIPOST Again - Missing Parcel (RESOLVED) by bodejohn(m): 2:23am On Dec 19, 2018
Open a dispute on the item in aliexpress stating that you didn't receive it.
You will be refunded or a replacement might be sent.

Mail items can get mixed up everywhere, almighty USPS had once failed to deliver a parcel shipped from China.

PnG manufactures all kinds of household items. The common ones in Nigeria are Ariel, baba blue, pampers and Always.

NB: Their diaper manufacturing plant was shut down in Ibadan (some years back) and Agbara (recently).
They still have a plant in Ibadan that manufactures Ariel and Always I suppose.
Vicks' (Baba Blue) facility was sold and it's license leased to a company called "Far East Manufacturing Ltd" a few years ago
The diaper (pampers & Always) manufacturing actually relocated to Agbara from Ibadan and had to latter shutdown.

P&G also has contract manufacturing for products like safeguard, Oral B and a few others...
