Crime / Re: Christopher Ohizu: Gunmen Kidnap Chairman After Razing His House In Imo by ceaser: 10:23pm On Jan 20, 2023
The problem is that easterners always go to the extreme when they do any stuffs, either good or bad. Moderation is desirable to guide in everything, for when you show yourselves as extremists to the world you end up making more enemies and destroying every form of sympathy for your agitation.

Why not just take the man and spare his property, but you just had to destroy every property he ever had in his life so that he will not have a home to come back to.

And you may want to argue that these are not carried out by the indigenes, however every indices points to the fact that it is home grown.

There is a trending video showing one man that wore Peter Obi's campaign vest in the South East. He was brutalised by masked gunmen because of that and all his four tyres (a red Toyota corolla were shot) and the man was threatened never to come into that place wearing any campaign shirt again or else he risks losing his life. The assaulters are igbo, from the way they speak so this is not a question of sponsored insurgent.

From my observation it is not own by sterling Bank, but it has been in existence since 2021.

Unlike some virtual cards that seems to be third party arrangement, Klasha cards seems to be independent.

I'm already experiencing troubles with the KYC.

I selected drivers licence and entered the 11 digits on the card, but the "confirm" button didn't highlight. I noticed it ewquires a twelfth character to be entered before it gets highlighted to continue, but ńa 11 digits my own drivers licence get ó. Abi na my own licence no complete so?

Okay I decide to use the NIN and also entered 11 digits NIN but it also didn't work. Their own sample shows 11 digits is required but it seems it requires up to 16 characters for me to continue.

The recession that the US and Europe will face in 2023 will be a serious one.

And the WEF (World Economic Forum) headed by the evil Klaus Swach is happy about it.

bluefilm:
It will take years before the world economy fully recovers from the debilitating impact of the COVID19 SCAMdemic.

I'm glad you know it was a scam.

They were all printing money indiscriminately during the lockdown period and sharing it out and at a time that production was nearly zero. After the dust settled, there was too much money in the circulation to purchase very few goods.

Unfortunately, the inflation of the US Dollar will have global effect because the dollar being the global currency means the whole world is subsidising the US excess of currency.

But with the recent move towards de-dollarizarion by countries such as China, Russia, Turkey, KSA, Swiss Bank and the incoming admittance of Turkey and KSA into the BRICs, it's only a matter of time before the US loses her dollar hegemony.

Petrodollar may soon give way to "Petroyuan"

Sheriman:
ChatGPT still dey oooo!!!

ChatGPT that is an algorithm funded by the government to feed people information the way that the government wants.

ChatGPT was fed about 50 billion texts (that's about 50 million articles) and what it does is to analyse these articles to give the answers to the questions you ask it. The downside now is that ChatGPT is not exposed to Internet contents, which means that there is tendency for it not to get updated on many issues as at when due. And of course it was a deliberate strategy. There are many dissenting voices and articles daily put in the Internet entry and exposure of ChatGPT to this means that the software will pick from articles that are anti-government.

An example is when CbwtGPT was asked "how to destroy Crypto in one year". The responses include whipping up fake news about Crypto, dissuading many people from investing into Crypto, forming legislation to make government take control of Crypto and so on. Now doesn't that sound like the government in 2022? Sam Bankman Fried comes to mind.

Bill Gates having invested about 2 million dollars in it owns about 40 percent share in ChatGPT while Elon Musk and a few others that started it proper (PayPal co-founder being one) own the remaining shares. Elon Musk had a different vision, a rather harmless one, for ChatGPT. Unfortunately with Bill Gates involvement, weaponization of the platform against users and in favour of the government is what Bill Gates has turned it into. This is one of the reason why Elon Musk blocked ChatGPT access to Twitter the moment he bought the platform, and the said the suspension is until further notice.

Bill Gates is making moves to put ChatGPT bar in his browser while he gradually removes the usual Google search. Google has raised an eyebrow to this move though, but the intention of it all is that ChatGPT when it replaces Google search, will only give you information as the government wants it to. This means that responses will be streamlined to control your awareness within the narrow concept of the government unlike the vast array of limitless information the regular Google search will provide for you.

You see, Lamy citizens across the world has lost trust in their governments and a survey conducted showed that trust of the people in their government has dropped an average of 40% ever since the pandemic.

The New Zealand Prime minister that just resigned was as a result of outcry of the citizens that they don't want her anymore ever since she introduced and signed the "climate conservation act" into law. This act when implemented will have far reaching consequences on the freedom and choice of citizens.

Remember that the prime minister is a member of the WEF. And so are Justin Trudeau, Ridhi Sunak, Liz Truss and that France prime minister.

The WEF is all about diabolism, control and dictatorship in manner that even China and Russia totalitarian or socialist governments will be child's play.

The WEF is about "You will own nothing, and you will be happy".

I am not comfortable with their hidden charges

Oh, thanks for the tip then. Just like the Raven guys that will not let you use all the monies you have on your card. I guess it is a minimum balance thingy.

It seems they use that minimum balance to conduct some sort of business. Even though one is not sure if access will be allowed to that minimum balance if one decides to close the account. That's why I'm being cautious with continuing with them. Initially I couldn't access 2 usd remaining in the card. Now it has increased to 5 usd and I've not even conducted more than 250 usd worth of transactions on their platform ever since I registered.

Update
Successful created CashEx virtual card and found out their deception that they also have hidden charges.

To add to your good job on here, I've been a while with Raven (another type of these guys) for a few months. In fact it was when Barter discontinued service that I did research, discovered Raven and moved to open an account with them. The first downside I noticed was that you cannot withdraw your dollar savings into Naira unlike with Barter, who I have up to 700usd saved with during their good days. When they discontinued, I cashed out with profit in naira as the conversion to naira was made at the prevailing rate.

Also with Raven, when you fund your naira account, it took a while, at times 2 to 3 hours for it to reflect, although the last one I did days ago reflected within the hour, an improvement I guess.

Trying to be careful, I did a few transactions of about 50usd each time on it. Then at some point I upped it to 100 usd and transferred the equivalent naira to the app. This was November 2nd, 2022. I converted same to dollars and expected the virtual card to be credited but no it wouldn't. Meanwhile the equivalent naira amount had already been debited from my Raven account. So I couldn't make that important payment.

24 hours after, I chatted them in-app to give my complaint. They usually will only respond after like another 24 to 48hours and when they did, asked for screenshots of the transaction and of the virtual card. They then gave 5 to 20 working days for the resolution. By 21st working day, I was forced to mail them and copy the CBN, EFCC, ICPC.

After several back and forth, I was credited back the naira equivalent by the 7th week, around December 27th. I was still able to get the 100usd conversion from the money (seems at the same rate as the November transaction) and this time around, the card was credited within minutes.

But then I realized that when it remained 24usd on the card and I needed to make a payment of 17usd, I got an "insufficient balance" response. So I knew that I don't own all the money I can see on my card after they had gotten their mandatory gradated conversion fees deducted (picture attached).

TV/Movies / Re: Avatar: The Way Of Water Movie Review by ceaser: 6:16am On Jan 17, 2023
Movies, hmmm.

Holywood is adept at showing its audience true life events that has been, is, or will be, subliminally thru the screen.

Avatar for instance, is a representation of a number of events that is occurring in the new world. How the US and the west attack nations that have rare earth resources in order to loot these resources without accountability. This is something that has been happening in a lot of African countries and even black nations like Hiati.

Do you know that Hiati is currently being occupied by the US military not because of the crude oil or nickel deposits, nah, those ones are secondary. That nation has the second largest deposit, after South Africa, of a rare earth metal called Iridum. Iridium is the only known element with the highest temperature resilience and is used in the construction of space vehicles. This element is present majorly in meteorite and a huge meteorite mountain (probably from a meteorite drop from space) is present in Haiti. It has tons of iridium that if mined is worth not less than 50 billion dollars. Even most Haitians don't know this secret.

Now to the movie representation of this. Black Panther is a subliminal message about Haiti. Vibranium Mountain is Iridium mountain in Haiti. Hiati is technically Wakanda.

Do you think it was a coincidence that Hiati was featured in the last Wakanda sequel - Wakanda Forever? Hiati was featured as the place the son of Black panther was to be raised.

Soylent green, a 1979 movie depicts a dystopian future where food is scarce and only the rich, wealthy and mighty politicians have access to thing such as meat while the others down the ladder are fed a "manufactured food" called soylent green. In the movie, it was later discovered by a curious policeman that soylent is made from recycled human flesh from those that die amongst the population.

There is currently a drive in some places in the west to legislate cannibalism as a way of life. In fact, there is a restaurant that has been allowed by law to serve its customers human meat. Google this please.

Jurrasic Park latest movie - Jurrasic world dominion - showcased genetically modified locusts that are so effective that they decimate any large farm vegetation they attack within minutes. These locusts are engineered to have affinity for any crop that is not bioengineered (non GM crops) but spare any GM crops. As a farmer therefore, your business can only survive if you purchase GM seeds from the company that sells them. In the movie, the company ensured ni connection was made between them and the locusts, which of course will be tagged as natural disasters. So they get insanely rich from selling locust resistant GM crops to anyone that has interest.

Back to year 2020,the covid outbreak era.

You can connect the dots.

A quick look at Bill Gates acquisition of swathes of farmland.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/news/bill-gates-asked-why-hes-buying-so-much-us-farmland-heres-his-answer-in-freeforall-ama/ar-AA16lDCc

https://www.pressenza.com/2022/12/battle-for-the-earth-the-great-reset-and-totalitarianism-vs-the-real-green-revolution/

So the idea here is that he aims to have the sole right to food supply, like in the days of his computer where he makes the virus and sells you the antivirus. Also most of these lands he acquired are directly over water aquefiers. This means he has sole right to water bodies directly under his lands.

Farmers are also currently being discouraged from engaging in animal husbandry quoting an increased in production of environmental nitrogen from such activity. Their governments have legislated to impose animal tax for such farmers, the tax increases with your number of animals you rear. The alternative? You will be provided with "Lab grown meat" made from GM (genetically modified) soy.

Before you tag these as conspiracy theories, know that many conspiracy theories have turned out to be true by the time they were redacted. The accusation of some British and American politicians as engaging in child trafficking for prostitution in Epstein Island is one of such. Then they were attacked and tagged conspiratorialists, but eventually the truth came out and in order to protect the big names of the patrons Epstein,a former CIA agent "died" in his cell. How convenient.

Also "conspiracy theorists" was actually a term coined by the government to dismiss people called "critical thinkers".

Politics / Re: Sowore: "Only A Fool Will Consult A Thief To Repair His Burgled Door" by ceaser: 1:27pm On Jan 03, 2023
I will disagree with Sowore on some of his opinions.

“Only a fool will consult with a thief when repairing his burgled door” - Yoruba proverb.

The proverb holds true, but OBJ has every right to endorse who he believes in. OBJ as a president made great development strides in the polity of the country. His first term saw the improvement of the standard of living of Nigerians and the military and paramilitary in particular had it rosy under OBJ. His policies included but not limited to the creation of the antigraft agencies and with his non-partisan nature, was able to bring to book anybody that tried any nonsense in the civil service.

He is a pan-Nigerian who ensured that every part of the country has representation in form of, not just anybody, but technocrats and people who merited the position they occupied. People like NOI, the late Dora Akunyili, Soludo, and even El Rufai himself were all products of OBJ'non-partisan politics.

The point where he lost it all was his inordinate third term ambition which gladly was truncated by both well meaning Nigerians and even the non-patriotic ones whose disparage about the good works of OBJ was their only driving force to oppose the third term ambition.

It even got to a point that people believed OBJ's penchant for actively opposing Yoruba political aspirants was borne out of his fear of being outshined by people that come after him.

On national TV, and on the eve of the elections that Awolowo participated in, OBJ as the then head of state said and I quote "the best candidate may not necessarily win this election". This is coming at a point where he was already being suspected of having a bias against the sagacity and the likely success of Awolowo as a president which will likely dwarf his own (OBJ's) recognition as a Yoruba leader. And of course Awolowo never got that position.

ObJ was also actively against the emergence of MKO Abiola when he went to South Africa and there publicly made a statement that Abiola should not be allowed to be the president. And Abiola did not attain that position.

During his return stint as a democratically elected president, he was actively against Tinubus's policies in Lagos State such that he denied the latter funds in order to frustrate governance in the state. Against all odds, Tinubu was able to weather the storm and did something worthwhile without reliance on federal allocation from OBJ.

OBJ was strongly against the announcement of June 12 as democracy day in Nigeria. The holiday which was legislated by Buhari was an agreement reached between him and Tinubu as a matter of national interest and in the event that he gets elected for a second term, the second term which Tinubu earnestly worked for and which OBJ actively worked against.

Having said all the above, OBJ is known to always, either in speech or in writing, have some condemnation to give about the government of the day. He did it against Shehu shagari. He did it against IBB. He did it against Sanni Abacha, which was what angered the latter to the point that he accused him of staging a phantom coup which nearly caused OBJ his life. He also did it to his handpicked GEJ. This implies that in the event that Obi wins, a time will come that he will also write a letter condemning Obi.

It is a good thing for past leaders to call present ones to order because that is the role expected of political elders and ex-officio and I without any reservations like it that OBJ takes that as his duty. He has even authored some books which serve as repository of Nigerian history for the upcoming generations, something which other past presidents of the country have not deemed fit to do.

The letter that OBJ has just written was not directed to Obi, but directed to Nigerian youths. It only suggests his endorsement of Obi and as he rightly puts him, as "a needle with a thread". This may mean different things to different people. To OBJ, it may imply Obi being able to be under his control as opposed to Tinubu who has challenged him before or Atiku whom he shared a tumultuous mandate with in his years as president. Still to some it may imply that Obi is not yet a "man of himself" to reject propositions from political godfathers. In all of these, it is simply OBJ being himself - authoring letters as he loves to do and I don't think he deserves any condemnation for doing that.

For Sowore to now attach OBJ's history of political kleptocracy directly with that of Obi's recent unveiling of political kleptocracy in the Panama papers, is to me a futile mental exercise. There is greater possibility that Òbí will decide to be his own man, backstab OBJ, constitute his own circle of thieves and nepotistic governance and everything continues the way they were. At that time, OBJ will again put pen to paper to condemn the government. Buhari did such, engaging in clannish and nepotistic distribution of political positions, something that began the downward spiral of his government. It got so bad that even his wife (Aisha) had to speak out.

Time will tell.

But you can only get this opportunity fully if you already have the bucks, have a big and booming business in Nigeria or overseas and if you are a corrupt Nigerian politician or the kids of a Nigerian politician.

Politics / Re: Dino Melaye: Wike Should Be Ashamed by ceaser: 11:29am On Jan 03, 2023
Is this Dino that FFK accuses of being a h0m0s3xual? An accusation which may hold true giving that Melaye has always ended up separating from the many ladies that were married to him.

And the fact that it is coming from FFK, well, gives some credence to it. After all only a thief knows well the footprints of another thief on the rocks.
Crime / Re: First Transgender Inmate In The US Set To Die By Lethal Injection by ceaser: 11:07am On Jan 03, 2023
Lighthammer:
So bad...This is how lethal injection will be administered on her
SODIUM THIOPENTAL will be injected into her body first to render her unconscious, then
PANCURONIUM BROMIDE will be injected to paralyze all voluntary muscles in her body..
Then POTASSIUM CHLORIDE will be the last injection and it will induce cardiac arrest,leading to death.


The first two are agents used actively in general anaesthesia - their good uses.

S/he will have an ECG monitor hooked on to keep monitoring the progress. The syringes will be mounted on automated micro-dispensers which will be controlled with the press of buttons by an operator. The operator stands outside a two way glass in another room also occupied by eyewitnesses (usually anyone who is interested) to the execution.

Once the potassium is injected, the heart stops at diastole and the ECG indicates by flatlining.

Since S/he was of little benefit to mankind while alive, he may perhaps be of immense benefit to flora in death. So S/he should not be allowed to go to waste. After all, the same US approved shis transition to another sex while he was alive. So they might as well equally apply the policy on "composting" shis body to shim. See below.
