Politics › Re: Buhari Could Not Solve The Economic Problems His Regime Faced - Britannica by ceaser: 1:49pm On Jan 03, 2015

[quote author=AcidosisMega post=29301816][/quote]This actually reeks of lies or at best western propaganda.

Shagari's government was full of corrupt officials second only to GEJ's in the history of Nigeria. While shagari himself was not the head of thr corrupt cabal, he however looks away and refuses to do the needful to stem the tide - do we have something similar in our hands in 2014? Maybe.

Buhari was installed by the military following a sucessful coup. He at once went to work:
- Arrested and jailed all known corrupt officials, alas tge innocent were also affected.
- Major clampdown on hard drug barons and marketers one of which was IBB who has his cartel. This lead to speculations that GMB was planning to retire IBB for bringing this slight on the military. Tgis was to provide the loophole for the west to explore in convincing IBB to topple Buhari and tgen all the progresses and successes made were immediately destroyed with IBB's ascension into power.
- Buhari made it a point of duty to pay up all our foreign debts so as to at least reduce some of our dependwnce on the neocolonialists. He was pressured by the international community TO BORROW, even when it's obvious we can fare well without borrowing. It was part of his decision to reduce borrowing that made him to halt Lagos speedrail under construction then as the project was being funded with foreign load. This is touted as one of his 'crimes' against the soith west.

Because of his refusal to borrow but instead paying of our debts, embargo was placed on Nigerua by the World Trade Organisation (WTO) meaning that bilateral and multilateral trade with other nations was difficult. However Buhari still deviced a way around it by engaging in trade by barter with willing nations. In this case he traded oil with other nations to give Nigeria what we need from them.

During his then tenure of TWO YEARS, he constructed the three oil refineries we currently have in Nigeria and constructed thousand kilometers of pipelines to convey crude and refined products.

He equally constructed roads. As a matter of fact, the total kilometers of roads he constructed during the two years is multiples of that constructed in Nigeria within the past 15 years (2009-2015).

He instituted the much popular War Against Indiscipline (WAI) which brought erring nigerians into line and wvryone will have to queue to be attended to on first come first served basis. Even in banks people started becoming orderly. Refuse and trash were disposed of properly.

Buhari and his deputy (Tunde Idiagbon of Ilorin) are both muslims. However no such thing as islamization of nigeria was in their agenda. It was actually the regime of IBB that brought Nigeria into the folds of the Organisation Of Islamic Countries (OIC) which began an era of religious extremism in the country. Before then and as a polytheist nation, Nigerians had always lived in harmony.

Buharivwas touted as disciplinarian to the point that at that time he was sponsored by the FG for ouside training, he returned the remains of his stipend (change) to the coffers of the FG upon his arrival. This was the reason he recommended the late Prof. Akunyili to OBJ for the post of NAFDAC DG, a role which she equally played well. She herself while working under Buhari in PTF had returned the money remaining from her foreign trip for treatment same way Buhari had done years earlier. So in effect, Buhari recommended her based on performance and without allowing ethnic sentiment to get in his way. Pls remember that Buhari DISCOVERED AND RECOMMENDED her for her EXCEPTIONAL, HONESTY and PERFORMANCE. And she did not fail us or her people.

All through his tenure, the naira was stable against the dollar as we had less financial dependence on foreign finances. As a matter of faxt the dollar exchanged for two naira as at then and Nigerians were able to spend Naira outside the shores of Nigeria (just as the dollar is done today). Now isn't that wonderful?

Please note that during Buhari's regime,tge country's financial reports were always read to the public on a monthly basis on national TV. The amount realised and the amoint spent in the past month will be read out for all to see. It was a best a transparent regime.

Then came the coup toppling Buhari which was believed to be masterminded by the west using IBB. With IBB's ascension, the naira was devalued as requested by the west (something which Buhari did not agree to). Corruption became an order of the day. Things went back to worse.

Abiola would have been another individual to stabilize our funances as Buhari did, but the west knowing this again used IBB to dash the "1993 hope agenda" of Nigerians.

Fast forward to 1997 under Abacha's regime. As PTF coordinator, annual financial reports of the PTF were always released for public scrutiny. Buhari refused to be paid for his work in the PTF cos according to him, he was already being paid his pension and it will be unfair for him to be collecting money twice from the same sources. Whao!

We all came to being at differnt periods in the history of this country. I hope this will serve an eye opener to the newer enfranchised generation on the need for hem to resist moves made at distorting history. Make an informed choice. You have had full first hand experience of the incumbent in the past 9 years he has been in governance (deputy governor to president). So i may not need to tell any history on that. However I can only give history on that wgich you were not part of. This will, once again, help you to make an informed choice and take your own future in your hands.

Good luck in your choosing.

I gonna list the components that will make my current dream phone and not unreasonable specs. This review will be derived from a combo of all current flagships from different OEMs.

Battery life - This hasn't been perfected yet but I will go with the Note 4 since this offers quick charge and a 3200MAh battery.
Screen - I will go with the Note 4's QHD screen which is the best smartphone display out there.
Speakers - The HTC M8's boom sound has got to be the best speakers ever built into a phone
Camera and Video recording - The IPhone 6 and Note 4. The Iphone 6 camera's the best out there. Even at 8MP, the pictures are crystal clear and isn't as over-saturated as the Note 4's which is also great by the way. Video recording on the Note 4's a beast because... 4K and OIS
Memory - 128GB of internal memory will be nice
Build quality - The HTC M8's body is just perfect, love every bit of it
Form Factor - The Note 4's rectangular form factor is just as awesome as the HTC M8's build quality.
Operating System - Android 5.0 Lollipop, best mobile OS and UX out there
RAM - 4GB
Processor - Snapdragon 808 64-Bit
Network - 4G

You obviously don't know about windows phone else you'll know that there's a Lumia series device that checks out on 90% of the above.

Lol. With that spec, the starting or launching price may be in the range of 150k plus. The L1520 with 6" screen and 20mp camera (32/64 gig variant), microSD expansion up to 128gig and a monster battery (the best yet in any mobile phone) launched with a price tag of around 130k in March/April. It's now around 110k sha.

Oh, congrats. But if I were you, I'll not create a new MSFT account but use the previous one. Using a new one means losing access to all your info tied to the previous account including phonebook, applications (especially the paid ones), game info & gameplay level and progress, Nearby Live info, xBox and Bing maps info (although the Nokia HERE maps is okay for me), OneDrive privileges including cloud uploaded media and info (on your OneDrive), communication and integration of the phone with your other windows devices.

thats pretty kool tho ,which windows phone do you use and whats PFD please?

Lumias 520 & 920 but screenshot is the 920's.

PFD means preview for developers. It's a platform for beta testing of OS updates to the phone before the eventual public rollout. So PFD users were already rocking WP8.1 like 2 months before it was rolled out for other users. It has its downsides though. You risk having your device being used as a lab rat. But so far, I've not encountered any problems using PFD versions mostly because the software updates are near perfect before they are even released to PFDs. So in effect, aside the newly released devices, PFD users will first have access to Lumia Demin and WP10 updates before other devices.

It's free to enroll in the PFD program. Just head over to the store to download the "preview for developers" app. Then you'd register on MSFT website with your windows ID (live, hotmail or outlook) after which you go back to launch the PFD app on your device and click "enable pfd". Then you're good to go. You'll be notified on your device to download and install any new updates for PFD. You can opt out at any tine by disabling pfd from in-app.

What i mean by a dream phone is a single smartphone that will have all the features you have been dreaming of/imagining
★
My dream phone is a phone that will have the following specs:
A 50mp rear camera with flash and 41mp front facing camera with flash(loseless zooming i.e the picture quality won't decrease when zoomed)
A battery life that can last at least 2days
Runs on android 5.0 lollipop
Has very slim bezels
Has some great features like: wave detection , thermometer , compass , hologram , notification light etc...
Drop your specs below and let's see how crazy our imaginations are...

1. A 50mp rear camera with flash and 41mp front facing camera with flash(loseless zooming i.e the picture quality won't decrease when zoomed) .........CHECK

2. A battery life that can last at least 2days......CHECK

3. Has some great features like: wave detection , thermometer , compass , hologram etc.......CHECK

The upcoming MSFT Lumia 1030 will give you the features checked above. Below is a leaked picture of the awesome device. Mind you, the flash feature dual- xenon (for still photography) and led (for video recording).

Its other features include 4gig of RAM, and 32gig, 64gig and 128gig hard memory. Each of those variant will still have memory card slot expansion which supports up to 128gig card, so you do the math. Pls don't doubt the 128gig support for this device. Lumias 1520 and 1320 released almost a year ago already supports 128gig card without hiccups and so also are the recently released range of Lumias X30 cool

and X35 series.

But no, it runs Windows 10 OS, so unless you wanna stop being an Android-meda, only then can you ever realize that dream.

As for the super slim thingy, I can't guarantee that with current technology, a 50mp lossless zoom camera will definitely give the device some bump or hunch-back. It's there in the Lumia 1020 forerunner (with 40mp lossless cam), so for the L1030, it might just be same or a little less hunch. Your SUPER SLIM with 50mp lossless zoom can only be gotten from the star trek universe for nowand you'll need to go thru a black hole to that 'verse.

Perhaps its a rootkit or dos virus. One that ingrains itself in the core of the operating system, such that when you restore factory setting, it returns and continues to run. I might be wrong. Its probably a cyan problem as you suggested. This is my best guess anyways. Nokia customer care it is then. It is well.

One of my female friends told me to help her select a good screen touch phone she can buy. I browsed and showed her so many screen touch branded phones that the price falls between #15000 - #20000. The list includes android phones and window phones excluding Tecno because she said she don't like tecno. She also complained about people saying that android phones used to deduct one's airtime(credit) when one recharges. Finally, she choosed nokia lumia 530(window phone). I told her that yes that android phones deduct your airtime if you don't have active data and if you mistakely on your mobile data with active data they will deduct your credit, but that of window phones I don't know much about it whether it has issues or not but I will ask people that have being using window phones to find out or share their experience with window phones. Please house which one do you prefer to buy? Is window phones or android phones? Can she still enjoys whatsapp, facebook, 2go and any other popular applications if she decided to buy window phones.
(Modify) (Quote) (Report) (Share)

There's no 2go for windows yet, but other social networks you mentioned are supported o Windows phone plus the MSFT "Nearby Live" social network application.

And money deduction following expiry of data is not a handset issue but network issue. eMpTy heN is very notorious for that. Glo spares your credit when your data expires, but eMpTy heN does not. So if she has her eMpTy heN SIM on a windows phone, her credit is equally endangered.

is there any player that plays vob videos and can import .srt subtitles (i can't add subtitle with moli player)

Moliplayer plays *vob (DVD file) extensions quite fine. I was exhilarated the day I discovered that cos then I don't have to bother about converting my dvd videos before putting them on my phone to watch on the go.

As for subtitles, if the *vob file has the subtitle EMBEDDED in the video file (as does some *mkv files), then your Moliplayer will show subtitles for the movie. However if the sub file is a seperate file, you will have to use a file manager on your device to rename the subtitle file to the same as the video file, still maintaining the original subtitle file extension, e.g. *sub, *srt, *txt as it is. Renaming the sub file as that of the movie enables the player to marry the two together and then you can watch your movie with subtitles.

You may have to download subtitles from online if it did not come with your copy of the movie. www.opensubtitles.org and www.subscene.com are a few of the sites I get subtitle files from.

About syncing subtitles to movies, Moliplayer unfortunately lacks that. It surprisingly happens to be an exclusive reserve of the nubile "CCplayer" app for windows phone. Maybe Moliplayer will add that in future updates though or the oncoming VLC player for WP8.1 will come studded with that feature is best found out by waiting.

thanks so much,
but as far as my knowledge serves me,3g makes phone hot and kills battery so i rarely ever use it(even when i'm downloading). i've already disabled all background apps(except whatsapp,of course). The silly phone doesn't have much games,and i dont even play the ones on it because im not a games freak.

but i've realised that the sh.it happens when im browsing(it's currently warm as im typing this). I just hope that a software update will solve the problem.

Thanks once again

I bet you use the IE (internet explorer) browser in the phone. The version of IE that comes with WP8 is known to have battery draining issues. You can cross check that by heading to battery saver in your settings page to compare the power usage of your running apps. The IE that comes with WP8.1 however, has this problem addressed such that it can be fun browsing with it now.

The alternative could be the use of Opera mini browser or Nokia xpress browser - if you don't mind missing out flash effects and animations in your browsing experience.
