Daramola’s high hopes in TraderMoni crashed, when, on qualifying to receive the initial N10,000 loan, he only got the sum of N8,000 – N2,000 less than the amount promised by the Federal Government. Disappointed, and worried about how he would still be expected to repay N10,000, according to the requirements of the scheme, Daramola took to the social media to voice his complaints. In a post on his Twitter handle, @DaramolaMike22, he wrote, “So I received the #TraderMoni by #FG today, but to my surprise, the officials gave out N8,000 instead of N10,000 which means they deducted N2,000 each from everyone who got the money. How do we make Nigeria work with such acts? @DrJoeAbah, @ProfOsinbajo, @segalink, @feladurotoye.” Daramola was not the only one to be short-changed in the TraderMoni scheme, as discovered in further investigations by our correspondent. Many other beneficiaries, all petty traders, had N2,000 deducted from the ‘loan’ extended to them by the Federal Government. Our correspondent discovered that the ‘deductions’ were rampant! |
Nigeria has filed a $1.1bn legal claim against international energy majors Royal Dutch Shell and Eni in London on Thursday, linked to a controversial 2011 deal for an oil licence. The undeveloped deepwater plot, named OPL 245, is already at the centre of a Milan corruption trial where prosecutors have alleged bribes of $1.1bn out of a $1.3bn deal were paid to public officials for the plot. The filing, in the commercial division of the High Court and seen by the Financial Times, alleges 14 defendants — including Shell, Eni and its Nigerian subsidiaries — “participated in a fraudulent and corrupt scheme” leading to the acquisition of the licence.

vaxx:It's not the money that doesn't exist. The entire show was an April Fools hoax! |
MrPRevailer:And you know this because when you asked to join they asked you for human sacrifice and when you refused they oppressed you? |
I suggest you study more into how the gospels came about. There's quite a lot of research done about it that not knowing is a choice. enilove: |
joseph1013:Download and read, or listen to Raymond Franz’ book, Crisis of Conscience |
Blackfire:In Ibadan now! |
Kyase:Atiku mustn't win any election Nigeria.... Fact |

"He doesn't plan to pick a horse in this race," Michael Vachon, Soros' chief spokesman, told CNBC in an email after being asked where his boss stands on the growing list of possible Democratic candidates for president. Vachon explained that the Democrats who will be in the running for the nomination will likely not see a commitment from Soros because "he thinks there are several good candidates." Vachon did not name the candidates Soros praised. |
enilove:There is no evidence for any of this, eni, and the accounts you claim were written by the people you mention does not indicate they wrote it! And the research was not simply translating "from one existing language to another existing language". |
Metuh:Voting is not synonymous with being political! And yes, there is "law in this country"! |
seunmsg:And there's no policy here either! |
Metuh:No. But because corpers are not to be political! |
Those pictures look more like outside the Nigerian High Commission to me! As if Teresa, who is bogged down in Brexit and saving her own head, has time for Nigeria at the moment! |
enilove:The Gospels according to Matthew and John were not written by the disciples Matthew and John, eni. And it isn't true that "What is available from that long past years is enough and more authentic than mere probabilities set by researchers", nor is it true that "any research after more that a Thousand year is a guess work or mere opinion". The Bible itself has benefited immensely from research done in the past thousand years. If it hadn't, you'd have had to learn Latin or Greek to be able to read it! |
humandroid:Now I understand why people insult you. You are a green man! |
humandroid:The ritual of Freemasonry teaches that all members should maintain freedom from pride and arrogance. The first step toward acquisition of truth is humility of mind, a sense of personal ignorance, and a desire for knowledge… — ( Proverbs 16:19 - Proverbs 18:12 - Luke 18:13,14 - Romans 12:3-8 ) “I believe that the first test of a great man is his humility. I don't mean by humility, doubt of his power. But really great men have a curious feeling that the greatness is not of them, but through them. And they see something divine in every other man and are endlessly, foolishly, incredibly merciful.” –John Ruskin Humility is an oft misunderstood virtue. Many people think it is an unreasoning sense of inferiority, or a lack of self appreciation. In reality, humility is far from this. It is an honest facing of facts, admitting them, and acting according to them…. The humble man lives free of all pretense and self-deception. This honesty with facts helps him to think clearly and act freely in his daily life. budaatum: |
MuttleyLaff:I'm not even awake yet! Especially after the hullabaloo of the demise of his previous incarnation. Wasn't Billyonaire much less rude than this person? |
Smarter people will make you conscious of your errors. |
humandroid:It's not their untrueness that I read them for. Nor is my reason for reading them because I'm jobless. As I said, an interesting topic, which I do think you can contribute to. Though, when you make claims of being "one of the few priviledged ones who have access to this type of info", one can only smile. I'm reading your posts because you post them and my interest in this thread is piqued for now. If you don't wish your posts to be read, perhaps consider not posting! |
humandroid: humandroid:I wonder if you know this just as you claim to know other stuff you claim to know. If you know what you claim to know, your choice of words would reflect it. |
humandroid:The sort of knowledge being spoken of here is not bought off a shelf in a supermarket, humandroid. And those who truly have it don't go selling it either. As NPC warned, one "might as well be believing all those pastors instead". |
enilove:Have you done any research into this at all? There's quite a lot out there pointing to none of the gospels being written by the disciples of Jesus. The earliest gospel is said to be Mark, and it's author is anonymous. And sorry luvmi. Revelations was one of the later documents. The letters of Paul being the first.

humandroid:You might have been scammed. They missed out humility in the package you paid for. |
Abbeybailey:Seems it's not been decided that an American President can be indicted, yet. And I doubt the current Supreme Court would rule that he can be even if he Did Actually Shoot Someone on Fifth Avenue. There's no law that says an American President can be indicted while in office, it would seem, however, the WP seems to think it might be possible.. A constitutional mumbo jumbo indeed, it seems. Entertainment for the likes of me with no skin in the game. |
Ranchhoddas:Seriously, Billyonaire! Is that you? |
finalboss:Consciousness is the state or quality of awareness or of being aware of an external object or something within oneself. Your question is asking "What's the highest level of awareness or of being aware of an external object or something within oneself?" Awareness of an external object can probably easily be determined by observation, i.e. "it is an object of a certain size with a particular colour occupying a particular space and time", then someone with greater awareness comes along and defines the object by its components, describes size by displacement, it's colour in terms of temperature and light, and space and time by, well, a matrix, or, vibration, and we can easily see the controversies involved. How much more for consciousness of what is within oneself? It's not after all as if I can objectively show you my innards so we can agree what size, and colour, and space and time my consciousness is or occupies! Whatever level of consciousness anyone claims to have attained can not be the highest, is my point. Someone else will always come along and simply by standing on your shoulders, be way more conscious than you. And amazingly, even you would become more conscious by standing on your own shoulders! P.s. I'm nominating your thread for thread of the month, by the way, if just for it's potential. Hopefully, posters in it will delve into theirselves and stand on shoulders and see further. |
Ranchhoddas:You said it can only be experienced, which is true. Yet when someone expresses their experience in imperfect words, just as you did, you call it: Ranchhoddas:Might "matrix virus", not just be another's understanding of their experience? I'm guessing you two have history that I'm not aware of! Something is making me conscious of this fact. |
Ranchhoddas:Yet, you explain it by claiming it "is the highest level of consciousness"?! Lol! |
