Hahahahahaha I just dey laugh! Progressives indeed! He who is without sin,cast the fast stone. The paid goons are out,defending the indefensible,aint that funny?

vivalavida: Abia state is lenient then. I was the manager of a fast food coy in calabar from aug last yr till mid june this yr when i quit. The rate @ which cross river state levy buisnesses there is much. There isn't much happening in that state and they lack sources of IGR there. The only booming sector there is tourism hence multiple taxation. The oil wells they had were ceded to akwaibom state govt by the supreme court.Most times different set of people come to the office to submit the same levy with different amount stated there-in. Let me give u a list of the few i can remember now
1) every month,we set aside #30,000 to pay for TDL which means tourism development levy
2) health levy = #35,000
3) environmental = #15,000
4) buisness development levy - #20,000
5)liquor licence = #3,000
6) CRISSA meaning cross river state sign board and signage agency - #100,000
7) fire service = 10,000
buisness operational permit = #15,000
9) sanitation fee = #10,000.
This ones are ffrom the state govt. You still have the ones brought from calabar municipal council i.e the LGA council in main cally. Some of these bills are a bit negotiable but dont expect much.

Before i left,Nepa went on a revenue drive and cut the light of all big organisation using what they call MD meter. Accused them all of tampering with their meters and gave us what they called bill of loss of revenue = #150,000, reconnection fee of #10,000 and you still have your nepa bill to pay oo
Buisnesses are moving out of calabar.

I concur to this Viva,I have a close friend who was managing a digital photo studio along IBB after Akim and I was a witness to the incredible tax rates.
Imagine paying 100.000naira for signboards? It wasn't funny at all. Sadly,the place folded up due to little or no profit as at the time.
Cross river tax rates are insane I tell you!

Wow! Hawty....

I'm sorry I can't upload the picture. Seems it's too large.

femi4: Are you sure that mail came from yahoo? Perhaps you sent your details to phishing link/sites

I'm guessing that might have been the. Case. I'm glad it's over though.

Finally fixed it! Long story short,my account was hacked. The hacker changed my password,added a different alternate email,hijacked my facebook account,changed my name and everything.
Out of the blue,a friend called me and said she got an inbox message from me saying that "I hacked her account,please tell her that her new password is I'm sorry123".
I logged on,changed everything and I'm hoping I'm home free.
I tried contacting yahoo to fix the problem and to speak with their CSO,I saw this number +130617026499 a night before the account was given back to me. For any who is going through such,call them and pray they can fix it.

See people who even in their wildest dreams would never get to the level dame has gotten to opening their mouths to spout balderdash! I pity some of you honestly.It really is pathetic how you come on NL to vent your impotent anger and feel you've accomplished something.
MIlitary rule hasn't looked so attractive to me until recently,then we knew who the braves where and who the Wimps and Cowards where. Everybody is now brave because it is GEJ. Nansense!!

Good evening everyone,I'm not sure where exactly to post this,but after going through most of the threads here,I feel here is just ok!
So I got an email from yahoo on Wednesday that my email ID may have been compromised and that someone tried to access the account from a location other than mine.I was asked to change password,for a more secured account which I did. I followed the steps to the later and was told it was successful.
I was asked to wait for the password change to take effect within 24hours which I did. Since then,I've tried accessing the account to no avail,I've sent two(2)emails to yahoo complaining of the difficulties I'm encountering but as at when I'm writing this,I'm yet to get a feedback from them.
My question is,has anyone faced this situation before? If yes!how did he/she fix it? OR Is there anyone that has an idea of how to fix this?? I would really appreciate any suggestion that can help me out of this,I am at my wits end.
Thanking you in advance!

ilugunboy: Stop trying to intellectually defend the indefensible my guy...the status of the Governor on-board the chopper should have been enough guarantee. Whether you like it or not he is not just an ordinary Nigerian and therefore deserve some decorum of respect....

Do you honestly believed that those that made the recall were not acting on instruction from higher authority or you actually agree that the recall is routine?

According to you,NAMA officials cleared the flight for take-off,speed-dialled GEJ,recalled the flight,grounded it,delayed the pilot and passenger to teach Baba Osho a lesson innit?
Yeye dey smell! GEJ,you don suffer.

eko ileee: And the wife he disrespected and humiliated no be member of his family?


Your wife, the woman you took to the alter, the woman you swore to honor cherish and protect, the man you promised to love for better for worse in sickness and in health comes first before anybody and you don't trash her like rubbish in front of anybody no matter what.


Well, not expecting much from these crude, crass and unsophisticated village men anyway..

For once I agree with you!

Ha! That's another marriage down the drain! She won't EVER forget the humiliation no matter what happens after this.
Making her kneel to apologise proves what? That you are a faithful husband?? Yeah right!
Why did she make the accusations to start with? Cos she's mad ni?

Sweet news. Thanks Op you've made my saturday

Ccccccuuuutttteeee! Your wife is simply gorgeous and your kids lovely!God has richly blessed you and He'll keep doing even more.

Thumbs up to the lawmakers! I hope they'll not allow anybody ride roughshod over them at the long run.

Enough already Amaechi! How many Nigerians do you remember in your prayers?? Face the music like a man and stop crying like a baby!

2015 ‘ll be bloody… - Buhari

“God willing, by 2015, something will happen. They either conduct a free and fair election or they go a very disgraceful way.

“If what happened in 2011 (alleged rigging) should again happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and the baboon would all be soaked in blood.’’

We’ll make Nigeria ungovernable for Jonathan – Lawal Kaita - October 2010 (on behalf of Northern Elders Political Forum)

"Anything short of a Northern President is tantamount to stealing our presidency. Jonathan has to go and he will go. Even if he uses incumbency powers to get his nomination on the platform of the PDP, he will be frustrated out"

2015: North Will Confront Jonathan - Lawal Kaita

“We hear rumours all over that Jonathan is planning to contest in 2015. Well, the north is going to be prepared if the country remains one.

That is, if the country remains one, we are going to fight for it. If not, everybody can go his way” - LEADERSHIP March 29, 2012

2015 may be Nigeria’s last election –Junaid Mohammed

National Coordinator of the Coalition of Northern Politicians, Academics, Professionals and Businessmen, Dr. Junaidu Mohammed said yesterday that unless efforts are made to ensure that the 2015 general election are free and fair, it may turn out to be the last election in the history of the nation.

NIGERIA DUE FOR REVOLUTION – Dr. Junaid Mohammed

“If You Shoot 500 People, Nigeria Will Be A Much Better Place…”

His words: “We are overdue for revolution. If you are afraid of revolution, maybe you have something to be afraid of. I have nothing to be afraid of about revolution, even though I know, again, in the history of revolution situation, many people who are innocent get killed and that is what a revolution is all about… What is wrong with us having revolution here? Unless, of course, you belong to those who are stealing government money or you have something to hide, then of course you should be afraid of revolution, because after the revolution, there is what we call revolutionary justice; they will get you and shoot you and there are many people that if we shoot in Nigeria, Nigeria will be a better place. In fact, if you shoot 500 people, Nigeria will be a much better place and God will forgive you.

It Must Be A Northerner Or No Nigeria – Dr Junaid Mohammed

Asked what he expected would happen if Goodluck Jonathan won the PDP’s endorsement to contest the 2011 presidential election. He said: “There would be violence. First, the PDP would never be the same again. People would desert the PDP in droves; secondly, the north is not going to take it hands down. I want to assure that I want you to hold me to this after seeing the way the events shape.”

Nigeria’ll disintegrate if Jonathan contests in 2015 – Abu King Shuluwa

“Any attempt by Jonathan to run for the election would plunge this country into total anarchy or revolution because the people feel betrayed by a president who told them that he would run for one term and thereafter return power to the North.”

“I saw a vision of the country disintegrating by 2015, but the only person that can save Nigeria from the impending disintegration is President Jonathan and he can do that by not contesting the 2015 presidential election.”

“If he does, then he is calling for the total revolution, which will affect every household. That revolution will start the day Jonathan is announced as the candidate of the PDP. If he dares win the election, he will hardly be sworn-in because of the revolution”.

Now, who should be arrested? Did Kuku and Asari say all this?

MAOBUYE NANGI OBU
The Wondering Wanderer...

Abegi make I hear word jare!! I am dumbfounded really,Buhari? Like seriously?
Anyone else but him,he is hell bent on ruling this country and I'll keep praying his attemps will always come to nought. Can't he rest? He isn't no messiah,he just wants another chance to steal more money before travelling to the great beyond.
Buhari,prepare your house,set your affairs in order and wait for the great call. Leave this country alone. Believe me,we will do better without you!

Jisos!!! Be still my galloping heart! Those eyes ehn.....

Bwahahahahahahaha I laugh! See who is talking! A clear case of a pot calling the kettle black.
After the long winded speech,you still haven't scored any points with me. You are not the messiah of Nigeria so oga,rest!
Change ko,change ni! You want another short at stealing a bigger pie!

koastar: North Korea should be careful. In the next 15years that mosque might be used to breed a new terrorist group- Boko Korea

Hahahahaha @ Boko Korea

Kamsy10: Anyway in life you can always find reasons to justify any action. It makes life very interesting.
For instance you can even justify having 3 or 4 jets in the midst of poverty sticken members some of whom don't even have access to clean water.

The biggest problem with jet acquisition is that by collecting such gifts from politicians, our pastors find it difficult to defend the poor by talking some sense into our politicians. Rather when our politicians visit them, they just shower prayers for them and not say a word about the situation of the poor and jobless youths in the church.
If religious leaders can no longer speak for the poor, then the country is finished
So one can say that some of our pastors have contributed a lot to corruption in Nigeria.
If you must own a jet, why 3 or 4 when members feed on $2 a day. What happened to youth empowerment/job creation for church members.
Last time I checked, thats not Christ-like

So Enoch Adeboye has 3-4 jets? Interesting! About the youth empowerment/job creation thing don't be too quick to say what you have no idea about. I can bet you that there's no time,jobs vacancies are not announced in meetings,seminars and workshops too. I know a pastor who is a manager with MTN retail outlet and the number of people he has personally secured employment for with MTN.
On advicing politicians,who says they don't? Wait till you start keeping the kinda schedules this people do then you'll come here and tell us how easy and convenient it is to fly commercial.

Lordy lawd! Wow!

Caustical,Eko Ile,Dayokanu,seanet01 et al you are fine ones to talk about bigotry. Every post in this section is all about ethnic bashing,igbo hating from you.
This is the same thing you guys accuse Achebe of but yet you draw your first morning breathe hating on the igbos.
It really is hypocrisy at it's peak I tell ya.
@Topic Sam is a nobody as far as I am concerned,till he writes a book as popular as TFA he will still remain in Obscurity.
