[/list]The major disadvantage in Nigeria is fraud aided by inefficiencies and incompetence on the part of our banks.


My experience with Ecobank was terrible. They slam you with multiple unexplained charges and you can never get ur statements , no matter how hard you try. I was defrauded (I suspect by their staff) to the tune of $400. Each time I loaded the card I struggled with the fraudsters to spend the money.

If at all you get a card make sure its a debit card , only load it when u have transactions its safer that way.

The thinking of the Supreme court, based on the Judicial precedence in Imo State is clearly the fact that "The PARTY rather than the Candidate is voted for in Nigerian Elections".
This does not sound reasonable but it is Legal and logical until we amend our electoral act to clearly state who we are voting for , Party or Person!!

These Supreme court judges are very experienced and learned. They would have caused more harm if they kicked Omehia out without clearly naming his replacement. (remember how long it took OBJ to UNDERSTAND the Supreme court verdict relating to the Lagos State council funds. Obj held to the "unclear" area and cleverly ignored the ruling.)
I remember the public was not happy with the supreme court for handing down and ambiguous judgement.

Further, having declared Omehia an usurper, the only logical thing the supreme court would have done was to declare another person the Governor, who would this have been , Odilli, Asari, the runner up of the primaries??, Amechi is the best person given the present circumstances.

Finally for Rivers state its business as usual and a LOOSE LOOSE situation whether Amechi or Omehia, they both have NOTHING to offer, its quite early to criticise Amechi but his Administration has charted a dangerous course with the Quality of persons he has quickly appointed!!!!!! his SSG and Head of service are tested and confirmed no do goods

Sorry to hear that, I think those bad men should be reported.

Provide details with NAMES and DESCRIPTIONS and post on the police web site

http://forum.nigeriapolice.org/index.php

We need to document and always report these cases to instill some fear into those crooks who use intimidation , harassment, resources of the state to extort money from us.

Further you can may report to the Police Complaints office 09-2340868.

Please be ready to follow this thru as you may be contacted.

Viperman, any luck?

Denex,

I do enjoy your posts, though sometimes controversial. I wish you God's grace and strength from above. We thank God for sparing your life.

Wishing you soonest recovery

I am of the opinion that our aggressive and rude behaviour stems from basic lack of etiquette , and this is a direct reflection of upbringing and culture. I would give a simple example, Some cultures believe its a sign of weakness for a man to say please or apologise especially to women. Similarly,  many would result to insults to win arguments.

I get so angry when our people howl on their phones in public, drive aggressively and display all that selfish and backward behavior without respect for their fellow men, Its sad

I am happy that this is the beginning of good things to come in Nigeria. Our Psyche seems to be getting better. I was appalled when some of the pro speaker guys introduced the tribal and gender sentiments.

Its most irresponsible for a leader to spend that huge amount on "Renovation" or "Upgrade" of her official residence in a country without basic infrastructure. Hope they would be able to prosecute her on possible criminal charges.

This is a clear reflection of the rot in the expensive and BIG govt we run in our Nigerian democracy, come to think of it can't we do without one, of the two legislative houses and  scrap of the state legislatures and even the LGs, these are just conduits for siphoning and wasting public funds.

Hi,

Please I need a peugeot 206 with very low mileage!!! does anyone have it in stock?

Cheers

The previous posts have answered your question. ACCA is truly your best bet

Let me just ask that you kill two birds with one stone!!!!, Get your ACCA, go for a 1 week tea drinking session with ICAN and you become a member!!!, It will probably NEVER happen the other way.

All the best.

I am happy, NOT at the man's death but at the thought of peace and good governance possibly returning to Oyo state with the demise of the man.

I am only scared because his BOYS would then be out of control and unleash terror on the state.

, Again this is a contrived story it's not true!!!!!!!!!! Where's that rascal called Nweke Jnr, he should come and deny again .

May God lay it upon the heart of our leadership and supporters of this Madness and wickedness to stop committing all these abominations.

This is BABACRACY or GERONTOCRACY at work in Africa. So shameful!!!! Hope their collective snoring would not have disturbed the other participants!!!!

I don't think the man is worth being debated upon.

As far as I am concerned he led the PDP to squander our collective resources for 8 years and he should be made to pay for it.

I guess like King Nebuchadnezzar, OBJ the DEAF!!! is climbing to the PDP BOT for God to destroy for the sake of the wickedness he perpetrated for 8 years.

I would have appreciated their actions if they don't get paid for such periods,then we know how serious their issues are. most have their children in private universities in nigeria or abroad while innocent student have their youth being wasted while they enjoy and loose nothing.

I am of the opinion of no work no pay,
[quote][/quote]Sorry Maite,

I think we should stick with FACTs and not FICTION!!!!!!! In case you don't know, a University Professor at the PEAK of his Career earns about 100k every month. Less than 10% of lecturers have their children schooling abroad or in Private universities.

Please I would implore you to go through ASUUs charter of Demands, this would probably give you an Idea of why ASUU has been going on strike.

Again I ask you if you were related to one of them, would you still propose NO WORK NO PAY?




U

Davidylan,

We definitely need more of you in this country to remind us all of the truth. Nigerians are extremely hardworking,  resourceful, resilient,  we are hustlers and would thrive under even the HELL situation. All we need to complete the whole puzzle in Nigeria is GOOD LEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCE. I get so MAD when those politicians tell us WE the people are GOVT!!!!!,

Your piece is the original "Nothing more to add"

tlops:
well its good atleast they have learnt their lessons: they are dispensable.to be honest unilorin enjoyed smpooth academic progress while they were away. if not for their absence I for still dey do BSc now.

This is a classical example of SELF over ALL , Ask yourself tlops "Were the lecturers were fighting for a worthy cause that may benefit your own children or relations in the future??, ask again "were anyone of them were your parent, brother or child , would you think the same way?

Mustay, I pray you never fall into the scornful hands of a Police woman, if ever you do!!!!!!!, it would remain a RED LETTER day in your life.

I have been broken down twice by policewomen in Lagos on very frivoulous charges that cost me the whole day. Imagine the woman telling me my CMR was signed by the wrong person!!!!!!!

I spent the whole day at the Obalende police station if not for my friend in DMI , I would definitely have slept there.

I would rather be caught with expired documents by a policeMAN than be stopped for using toothpick at the wheels by a PoliceWOMAN!!!!!!, I fear them o

America's arrogance and lack of respect for others is killing them!!!!! They go around trampling on other people's cultures and way of life in the name of freedom.

I have vowed never to go to the US for anything because of the way they humiliate our people at the consulate and Airports. I don't hate them but they have lost my respect.

This is what you get when you put an OBJ in the WHITEHOUSE, bad leadership results in bad followership!!!

God is good .

Don't forget your days of waiting.

* Be nice and don't complain about everything*Dont allow your job to prevent you from serving your maker
*Help people without waiting for rewards
*Save and Invest don't do things becos others are

God bless and keep you Maitey

The lecturers were sacked because they refused to sign and return to work during a strike in a desperate bid by the then despot and autocratic VC Shuaib Oba.

The then Inexperienced and delinquent VC was imported from Kano and unleashed on the peaceful Unilorin community , he established tribalism, nepotism , eyeservice and wickedness just like his God father OBJ in the university. His only threat was ASUU and the only way he could break the Unions was by hitting hard on the strong members. Unfortunately , the system allowed him to do this and get away with it. The VC who organised his cult boys to disrupt exams claimed this was done by the lecturers.

How sad and unfortunate a citadel of learning has been transformed into a common motor park!!!!

Its so sad and sickening when one sees all these dead industries at ABA, Ikeja , Ilorin and all the Industrial estates countrywide

Problems:

* Lack of Power
* Lack of Basic Infrastructure like roads, mass transport eg efficient railway system
* Inability to access competitive sources of finance
* MULTIPLE MULTI MULTIPLE Taxation


Solutions
* Allow Joint Venture arrangements with private sector to provide power and explore alternative sources of energy
*Private /Public Ownership of roads
*If we have infrastructure and security in place , foreign investors will find us out and more money becomes available and cheaper for that matter
*Scrap Local governments and councils, they are bleeding the national treasury to death, our Regional structure was better

Every organisation is a true reflection of the leadership.


The policemen extorting and harassing on the roads are a reflection of their DPOs
The DPOs a reflection of the Area commanders
The Area commanders are a reflection of the CPs
The CPs a reflection of their DIGs
The DIGs a reflection of the IG
The IG of course, a true reflection of BABA!!!!!!!

It trickles down the line, I have been told by many men of the police that they fuel and maintain the Police operational vehicles from the monies collected from the road blocks. Are we saying this money was not budgeted for and released from Abuja? Of course somebody must have cleverly diverted or reinvested these funds.

Often the big men in the police claim the police is a reflection of the society I choose to disagree because with good leadership, corruption and abuse would not be as widespread as we have in the Police. Are they claiming more professional bodies like NAFDAC, EFCC or the SSS are operating from the moon. While every organisation would have bad eggs it is usually crippling if the BAD EGG is at the TOP!!!!

If found guilty, Ehindero should be sent to Gasua Prisons for the rest of his =N=20 - COLLECTING LIFE!!!!!!

Dibosa187, Thanks for the very good advice. It is important you legalise the transfer of the shares through the adminstrator.

All who are interested in shares, please maintain a simple spreadsheet to ensure you are able to monitor your stocks and follow up with your dividends. If you don't have the time or energy to maintain this personal database, please I beg you with the mercies of God don't bother to go into the capital market.

Finally, I have been to three major stock broking firms and my conclusion is that all stock brokers are the same , you have to push and shove and cajole them in order to get anything done. The lesson is "Your investment is in your hands monitor and guard them jealously" NEVER leave anything to your stock broker. ( I apologise to all stock brokers in the house for being blunt)

I give Yaradua thumbs up.


We can safety calculate the wealth he has amassed during his tenure if he does the same thing when he leaves office. Most corrupt leaders would not do that.

Think we should commend good efforts in the right direction. OBJ or Mr Odilli for example would never done this.

Please don't forget Mr Yaradua is from a very rich and influential family and some of the =N=769m could be inheritance. I can't vouch for the man's source of wealth obviously, but he seems to me to be honest.

This goes to show the level of criminality and chaos going on in the Niger Delta. We are under siege out here!!!! A dynamite was thrown into a private residence in PH on monday morning , guess what?? the group demanded for =N=20m from the landlord to ward off further attacks.

Hope some would not call this CONTRIVED!!!!!

Thank you

1. Pack your things

2. Go to court

3. Get a better job elsewhere or go into a cash based business


They might just have pushed you out to your fortune and success. I have seen this happen several times including to me.

I won't be caught DEAD or ALIVE driving an auto!!!!!! I can't ever divorce my MANUAL!!!!!! I play with the gears with so much ease. My wife drives an auto and she enjoys it like the white man enjoys cigarettes

I have this erroneous belief Autos are for the PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED!!!!!! In my village we call it MOTO ARO - The car for handicaps!!!!!!!!!

I felt like throwing up when I listened to this guy yesterday evening. Is this not the same Segun Adeniyi of THISDAY?

Honestly, there is something in that ASO ROCK that we need to attack spiritually. If Segun a very vocal voice of the masses could fall so fast what would mere mortals like us do if we get to such positions?

In the spirit of this free information, I expect him to have given exact reasons why the price of refined products must go up with authenticated (not bedroom like Kupolukun or Kingibe) figures.

I hope and pray this is not true, else this would be an indication that PDP would gang rape Nigeria for another 8 years!!!!

Good People,

Please avoid Ikorodu Road at Dusk or Dawn; it has become a real death trap. The ongoing construction by LAMATA is being done with NO regard for Public safety.

I had a very frightening experince with my Wife and only child in the vehicle this morning when I ran into a ditch (or Gapping pothole)  just before Anthony busstop while avoiding the concrete divider.  As if that was not enough we ran into a flowing river just by palmgrove bustop due to the early morning rain. I was only lucky because I was moving at just about 40km/h, I saw several vehicles that had ended up on the road divider and two of them hit the BRT construction concrete.

Please can the Lagos State govt put flashing lights or something on the new BRT concrete Dividers,  patch the really bad spots on this road and put some form of self illuminating road markings while the construction is going on.  I see accidents on this road everytime I ply the route.

If anyone in this forum knows whoever is responsible; kindly tell them to do something fast to save lives, you never can tell the next victim might be his/her relation.

Iyke-D and all the guys who predicted the outcome of this strike correctly, You are right and you seem to know our labour leaders so well.

I am totally disappointed in labour for bowing to govt in this matter, I was totally in support of a fight to finish just like many other Nigerians and looking back I have lost well over =N=2m as a result of the fruitless strike. So many Nigerians have wasted the 4 day period with dented egos and pockets.

I would not be surprised if govt initially set out to achieve =N=70 naira in the first place. I am so upset beyond words and I can assure you all that this Labour leadership would henceforth be seen as toothless bulldogs by the govt.

What a pity!!!!!, However Nigerians are greater than Government or Labour, By the grace of the Almighty we shall get there. All the people who use us Nigerians to strengthen their positions and negotiating powers would be held accountable to the Almighty one day.

New Elections may not deliver true and fair results as the PDP is still in charge and control.

I am happy with Andy Uba's RIGHTSIZING!!! We are truly making progress (though slow) as a country. We pray for more of such things to happen. I wish the courts could sanction the president or governors for non performance.

I pray the next step would be the investigation of Uba, OBJ, Iwu, PDP leadership and if anyone of them is found wanting, straight to JAIL!!!!!! where they belong.
