That exit point from Anthony bridge leading to Ikorodu road just by SHODEX Garden is one hell of a notorious dark spot. Sometime last year my wife had to be in Yaba as early as 6am and I opted to drive her down there. But before we left home, I remember I told her to go with just a simple bag with no major contents in it aside her money and fabric. Just like you, as I approached that spot and was trying to avoid the pot holes on the road, one motherfucker sprang out of the dark and swung the door open and tried wrestling the bag off my wife's laps. As she screamed that someone was trying to steal her bag, in a matter of seconds, I was imagining what was going on cos I saw the door open and wondered how that was possible since I was sure I applied the central lock before leaving home.

Stepping on the accelerator was what I did cos if I had slammed on the brakes, the guy could've been flung forward while damaging the door in the process. We were able to escape in one peace.

A neighbour of mine at that same area in January this year had her one month old brand new Honda CRV badly damaged as she was forced to ram into the road divider while trying to get away from those thieves.


slamstanlee:
Am i the only one who doesn't hang his phone? Day or night. I even have two great phone holders(foreign). Unless i tell u i am uber/taxify....
Okay read this stories....

1. After about 2 months on uber, i picked this hot babe at agungi, going to Maryland mall. 9pm. She was so excited, she would put the music to the loudest and was screaming loud... "i am enjoying the speed" while on 3rd mb... On getting to gbagada express, she started pressing her iPhone 6+. At Anthony exit now. Me i was still learning the roads then. Instead of me to use the 1st exit to enter ikorodu road and face Maryland... I missed it and was going down through the 2nd exit that leads to fadeyi/surulere. As we were descending, at abt 40km/h. One guy just appeared from nowhere opened the door (which was on automatic central lock) and started dragging the iPhone with the babe... She screemed and i look to my right and saw what was going on... The only option i had was to hit the gas pedal and speed up. Brethren! All i could hear was revving sound of the engine. Car wouldn't sprint... As if the guy was holding the car and simultaneously dragging the phone... All these happened within 7-10 seconds. He went away with the phone.... Magical.... The story long. Police appeared, they searched around couldn't find him. Na her boyfriend come pick her later.... How he opened that door still baffled me till date as other doors were still locked when we stopped to get down.... I reported to uber immediately, don't know if they contacted her to pay for her 200k+ phone....

2. Was in a mad traffic at volks, ojo. Heading to family house to have the next day as rest day. AC on, windows up.... Very mad traffic that moves 5meters every 5mins. Around 10:40pm... I received a call or 2 sha with my newly imported phone. Oboy! Before i knew what's up... I heard a loud smash on the glass, driver's side. A gun on my head.... "gimme the phone, gimme the money"
Without hesitation i gave them the phone, i said i didn't have money.... They left and attacked the car beside me immediately... In a confusion state, i rammed on the trailer in front of me.... The next day at the panel beater shop they found a big round brown stone under the driver's seat. How it didn't hit my head or leg when they smashed the car with it was the miracle...


Wind up windows or not.
Hang phone or not....
Anything nite waka is dangerous
The night is dark and full of terrors

May God protect us all. Amen

The tint permit is supposed to be FREE and is usually processed at the Lagos Police Command off Oba Akinjobi street, Ikeja.

You need to fill the form online and do a print-out thereafter which is to be taken to the Police command for processing with your bio-metrics taken. Do this on http://www.npf.gov.ng/tinted/index.php

Pay anybody any money and you're on your own!


kingsley55:
I went to area F yesterday to process my tint permit print out. Hmmm we were asked to come back today for thumb biometrics capture and 7,000 Naira. Is that the official price?

NB. I didn't meet any roadside police I want straight to the counter.

For real?


Chuwaa:
Guys I noticed that text is free for riders and N20 per text for drivers. Why?
Most business websites have live chats, uber should build that in too, possibly build in in app internet call in their app, my two cents

Hi folks, if you have any app or apk like Perfect Player, Lazy IPTV, VLC, SS-IPTV or SmartIPTV (both Smart TV apps) etc on which you use an m3u playlist, here's a good playlist for you.

(http)://bit(.ly)/tdukiptv28

I'm watching the Nigeria Vs Sudan match (CHAN2018) on beIN Sports HD1 at the moment and it's been flawless.

P.S. Remove only the brackets in the address above and leave no space. I tried leaving the address without the brackets, but it kept getting shortened. Dunno why.

How far guys... nobody has updated us with another free apk here sad


I don't know if it's just me but uktvnow hasn't been showing for a while....
It's not new, but I think the LivenetTV apk has been revamped. Get this on livenettv.net

It won't hurt if you too post any such free apps/apks you come across for us to try out.

I could go as high as 30k. But then i want quality, ease of update/upgrade, CS, feature rich and of course pocket friendly rate.
Thank you
With your budget, I'd say go for the Xiaomi Mi box (global version).
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by CavendishPlex: 11:59am On Jan 23, 2018
SimpleTee:
The TStv channels on their main tp of 11088 H 30000 are currently off line

You may input the following tp to have access to other available TStv channels
11052 H 30000
11168 H 30000
11098 H 30000

Then Blind Scan to have these TStv channels
I'm just hoping the manner with which their channels disappear will not continue whenever they eventually go commercial.

Thanks
Hi, first of all, what's your budget like?
Education › Re: OAU: Students Prepare For Rain Semester Examinations In Total Darkness by CavendishPlex: 5:18pm On Jan 13, 2018
I left the school almost 20 years ago after sitting through my final semester examinations in total darkness and no water. It was a candle light affair back then. It's sad to hear that OAU is still bedevilled with such problems. What a shame!

HenryWilliams:
Can it read and clear transmission codes?
The function of the OBD2 scanning tool is to tell you what the exact problem is as against having to hazard a guess which could be dangerous.

These tools have the "clear codes" feature, but of what use is clearing a code when the underlying problem is still there. Clearing the codes will not keep the error light off permanently. Sooner or later, the codes will reset and the light will be back on UNLESS the problem(s) that caused the code(s) to set in the first place has or have been diagnosed and repaired.

I hope this helps.

You're not alone in that regard. These days, I hardly do TV.


duwdu:
That's a very informed choice, CP.

(In the meantime, [with no youngsters around,] I find my hunger for mainstream IPTV services diminishing - to basic news once or twice a day, LOL.)

True that, I noticed Redbox TV streams a lot of their channels on HD so if u don't have a good connection OYO is Ur case, even the channels labelled SD are still the same, but I noticed mobdro streams better on weaker connections the pictures are good but not crisp and buffering is minimal. While if u have very bad connections just stick to WSS, I've not tried paid IPTV cos I don't really do a lot of TV.

So CavendishPlex I totally agree with u, and thanks bro for pointers in the right direction. U rock bro.....
Always a pleasure. wink
