As the tech world eagerly anticipates the launch of Apple’s iPhone 16, industry experts are offering varied perspectives on the device’s potential impact. Notably, Professor Ndubuisi Ekekwe, a respected entrepreneur, suggests that the hardware evolution of the iPhone is reaching its zenith. According to Ekekwe, the focus is shifting from the physical attributes of the device—such as the camera, shape, and size—to the more intangible aspects of its software.

He highlights the fact that Apple’s upcoming release, set for September 9th at the Steve Jobs Theater in Apple Park, will be marked by the introduction of generative AI capabilities embedded within iOS 18. This evolution signals a strategic shift for Apple, as the company continues to lead in software innovation while maintaining its hardware dominance. Ekekwe points out that Apple has successfully transitioned into a company where the fusion of hardware and software makes it one of the most influential firms of the 21st century.

Ken P. Oke, an expert in digital transformation and growth, expands on this view by discussing the broader implications of AI within a Web3 framework. Oke believes that by embracing Web3, the iPhone 16 could play a pivotal role in the move towards a decentralized, user-centric internet, fostering innovation in the digital space.

Emeka Okonkwo, an e-commerce management expert, echoes the sentiment that Apple’s focus on software is a testament to its forward-thinking strategy. He asserts that as hardware innovations plateau, it is the continuous advancement in software that will keep Apple ahead of the competition.Apple iPhone 16 Plus Might Come in Seven Color Options: Pro Models tipped to get new hues as well - Smartprix

However, Victor Owuda offers a slightly different perspective, cautioning that hardware innovation might not be over just yet. He notes that Apple has been conservative with its hardware updates since the iPhone 12, focusing instead on software improvements to optimize shareholder value. This approach, coupled with strong marketing and customer experience, has allowed Apple to maintain its substantial market share.

In a world where it’s all too easy to point fingers and cast blame, the notion that “The Church is not the problem” strikes a chord. It’s a reminder that while criticism may come easily, the real challenge lies in replicating the success and progress seen in various sectors, particularly when that success reaches global proportions.

Consider the cost of renting a stadium in Texas, which hovers around $30,000 for just one day. It’s a staggering amount, yet famous Nigerian artists routinely fill these venues worldwide, reaping substantial rewards from their craft. These events are not anomalies; they are testaments to the remarkable reach and influence of the Nigerian entertainment industry on a global scale.

Next time, allow her to leave, she is blackmailing you...is she the one paying rent.


Allow her to leave, call her bluffs... she get people wey dey tast her outside na dem dey give am moralle, trust me

Valoromega:
I've been married for 2 years now with a new born baby. the issue now is that anytime we have issues my wife always threatens to leave.
she will arrange and bag and say she's leaving. this has happened more tha 4 times, basically anytime we have issues as a couple.

She will say she's still young and she can't take any nonsense in marriage, Mind u i have never hit her before so this isnt a case of domestic violence, just normal couples issue.

I'm tired of this and i'm thinking about my options right now, I want to tell her to leave but she should drop my child for me. she can't use our marriage as a threat everytime we have issues

Dude it is same and stop playing around,,,oga Governments have the authority to take away private property for public use through a process called eminent domain. This power is typically balanced by the requirement to provide just compensation to the property owner. The idea behind eminent domain is that sometimes the government needs to use private property for projects that benefit the public, such as building roads, schools, or other infrastructure. However, this power is not unlimited, and property owners do have rights and legal protections to ensure fair treatment in the process. These protections vary by country and jurisdiction, but they generally include the right to challenge the taking and to receive fair compensation for the property.

This is when the government wants your property “for the public good”, but in this case, they do have to compensate you with a “fair market” price. For example, it the government wants to build a road through your house, and you refuse to sell it, they can force you to sell, and you can’t stop them.

IbeOkehie:
I've taken time to study this issue of eminent domain. Use of eminent domain in USA is NOT the same as the government exercise of ownership rights in Nigeria. Anyone can go read the relevant laws or scholarly articles online.

(1) The Land Use Act in Nigeria specifically allows government to unilaterally determine fair compensation when the occupier is forced to vacate. Have you ever read where anyone was given compensation for land taken by government in Nigeria? Even indigenes of Abuja and FCT are still in court trying to get compensation.

(2) The USA Constitution requires that government pay fair MARKET price as compensation to the owner of land that is taken for eminent domain.

That's the difference between Certificate of Occupancy and Title of Deed.

And then real estate taxes. Of course the land is taken if taxes aren't paid. What's the big deal? Taxes are paid so the government PROTECTS ownership of property. Without it anyone can just walk up to your house or land and take it as can happen in Nigeria.

Interest rate - most mortgages in the USA are fixed rate. Even the Adjustable Rate Mortgages can be fixed at any time by paying a fee depending on the value of the home.

By the way, I've lived in USA for over 30 years and I don't know a single Nigerian that has been forced out of their primary home because they couldn't pay mortgage. Not one.

I do know a few that had trouble paying during the 2007 financial crisis but guess what? The government helped them out and they kept their houses. People pay their mortgage the same way they pay their rent, it's a BASIC expense everywhere including Nigeria...most families in urban areas of Nigeria, say the largest cities in each State... DO NOT own their homes, they rent.

You're welcome.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

safariman:
Please stop misleading folks here especially on your capitalized wordings. Mortgage rates do not go up and down UNLESS you have what they call ARM (Adjustable Rate Mortgages) which are tied to FHLB (3-5-10year Federal Home Loan Bank rates) or Prime rates. Once you have a fixed 15 or 30 year mortgages, your rates stay put what changes are your home owner insurance policy and county or local taxes which is based on the evaluation of your house or what is referred to as tax basis evaluation. Many people dispute the value in courts to lower the value of their house, therefore, avoid higher taxes but will want a higher value when selling.

son, learn

Mortgage rates may continue to rise in 2024. High inflation, a strong housing market, and policy changes by the Federal Reserve have all pushed rates higher in 2022 and 2023.The possibility of declining mortgage rates keeps fading. Blame a still-booming U.S. economy, and stubborn inflation.

To be clear, mortgage rates are not set directly by the Fed, but by investor appetite, particularly for 10-year Treasury bonds, the leading indicator for fixed mortgage prices. That can lead to intense rate swings — they soar on news of Fed hikes, then plummet in anticipation of a cut.

Mortgage rates are also chained to inflation, a metric the Fed has been moving to control. While most Fed members still expect three rate cuts this year, one regional Fed president now is predicting just one rate cut in 2024.

Mortgage rates are running at a 22-year high, crimping a housing market already squeezed by high prices.The rise in rates has cooled demand for homes, with sales of existing homes down sharply from last year. And sellers who locked in low rates during the pandemic are reluctant to put their homes on the market because they fear they will not be able to find a comparable rate when they become buyers.

Mortgage rates are influenced by a number of factors, most beyond our control. The biggest driver is the bond market, but there’s more to it than that, said Melissa Cohn, regional vice president at William Raveis Mortgage, a real estate lender.

WHERE IS 3 BED 2.8 MILLION IN NIGERIA......IS IT DUPLEX

IAmHim1:
And I quote:

'In most of these areas, a 3bedroom flat is rented between 1.5m to 2.8million a year. If you used 100million to build a storey building of 4 flats, if you collect 2.5m per flat multiplied by 4 that is 10million, if you do it for 10 years you have recouped your investment. Rent increase is also rampant in these areas, I speak with experience as one that have...."

This is for a perfect case scenario. It's hypothetical and it doesn't work In real life if you factor in INFLATION

So in 10 years, you might not get your #100million initial capital charging #2.5 million for four flats

Bag of rice was #30k around 2019 or thereabout and beans price gave a close marking.
But a bag of rice is now #60k as of 2024.

SO WHAT HAPPENED SIR.

Rice did not become more RICEFUL and beans did not suddenly become more BEANSFUL.
like the beans we are eating now is the same beans our forefathers ate. It's not like it's now chocolate beans or something

So what happened to the prices of then and now

that's INFLATION

Inflation is not the increase in price of goods in the market.
INFLATION is the reduction in purchasing power of money as it's value keeps reducing due to it being plenty in circulation.

Inflation is not the price of goods in the market going up. It is the value of money going down.

There is too much money in circulation sir and there is not a lot of local production to back it up

AND GUESS WHAT Sir

The government is about to increase the minimum wage. Meaning more money in circulation with less of local production and the price of goods will now act as A SPONGE to absorb the plenty money in circulation. That's the reason price of goods in the market rises


So Sir, please factor in inflation to your calculations and when you do, you will find out that

1) It will take longer to recuperate your initial #100 million

You are seeing it as " invest #100 million and make back #100.million as initial capital" but that's wrong

It's gonna be " invest #100 million and make back #200 million as initial capital"

Simply because your #100 million of 2024 will now be #200 million of 2034.

Your money did not become more bigger. It just lost value thereby making it look plenty

2) There is a difference between MAKING PROFITS FROM A BUSINESS and HEDGING AGAINST INFLATION

Most business like land and houses and gold and crypto are just hedging against inflation. Because plenty money in circulation and their gold, crypto, land etc will then act as a SPONGE to absorb the plenty money in the economy

SMART THINKING MANY NIGERIANS IN USA AND UK ARE SUFFERING BUT SHAME NO GO LET THEM TALK

hansomb:
I rather be a king in the village than be a slave in the City. I rather be a Nigeria millionaire than Obodo Oyinbo thousandnaire. Will have my total freedom , humble and less depressed lifestyle here, and go vacation there for some weeks enjoying world-class services. Simple.

SAME WITH ME...I HATE LOANS

franchasofficia:
Me don tire to argue my brother, whatever method one prefers, he or she should follow, me I have adopted a lifestyle of never to take any loan.


When I started my small firm some years back, I was tempted to take a loan based on friend's advice, so I went for it and they gave me all the paper works, and I was to hand them over my only car then with the original documents, plus a land document lolz.


I got home and started rethinking and something told me not to take the loan, so I returned back to the bank the next day and told them I wasn't interested in the loan anymore. As God have it, I made some instant product sales that fetched me 30% of the loan I wanted to take, that was how I abandoned the loan and that was it. Today we are doing great, every single pin I own belongs to me, no single loan or debt, which gives me peace of mind.


The only time I will be taking loan is when I finally get a good political connection in Naija so that I can take loans in the billions like Aliko and co, which I will never pay back

WHY INSURING YOUR INCOME INCASE YOU LOOSE YOUR JOB? WHY DON'T YOU THINK OF RESIGNING AND FLOATING YOUR OWN BUSINESS...MUST YOU WORK FOR PEOPLE ALL THROUGH YOUR LIFE? CANT PEOPLE WORTH FOR YOU? CANT YOU CREATE A JOB?

shaybebaby:
There's even income protection, yes! You can insure your income incase you lose your job or are unable to work for a period of time.

There is critical illness cover as well to do what it says on the tin.

Most brokers will also offer you life insurance at the time getting the mortgage ( you can decline) and you get to choose who the beneficiary is.

To NOT have life insurance is carelessness.

GOVERNMENT CAN TAKE YOUR LAND IN USA AND MANY COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD, SO YOU PEOPLE SHOULD STOP ALL THESE LIES. IT IS CALLED EMINENT DOAMIN LAWS. ALSO YOU DONT CLAIM YOU OWN A MORTGAGE HOUSE UNTIL YOU FINISH PAYING IT, MORTGAGE IS LIKE LIVING ON BORROWED TIME, INTEREST CAN RAISE ANYTIME AND YOU MUST PAY, FAILURE TO DO SO, - FORECLOSURE LIKE IN CARS IT IS REPO!


Eminent domain (United States, Philippines), land acquisition (India, Malaysia,
Singapore), compulsory purchase (Ireland, United Kingdom), resumption (Hong Kong, Uganda), resumption/compulsory acquisition (Australia, Barbados, New Zealand, Ireland), or expropriation (Canada, South Africa) is the power to take private property for public use. It does not include the power to take and transfer ownership of private property from one property owner to another private property owner without a valid public purpose.
This power can be legislatively delegated by the state to municipalities, government subdivisions, or even to private persons or corporations, when they are authorized to exercise the functions of public character.


The most common uses of property taken by eminent domain have been for roads, government buildings and public utilities. Many railroads were given the right of eminent domain to obtain land or easements in order to build and connect rail networks. In the mid-20th century, a new application of eminent domain was pioneered, in which the government could take the property and transfer it to a private third party for redevelopment. This was initially done only to a property that has been deemed "blighted" or a "development impediment", on the principle that such properties had a negative impact upon surrounding property owners, but was later expanded to allow the taking of any private property when the new third-party owner could develop the property in such a way as to bring in increased tax revenues to the government.

Some jurisdictions require that the taker make an offer to purchase the subject property, before resorting to the use of eminent domain. However, once the property is taken and the judgment is final, the condemnor owns it in fee simple, and may put it to uses other than those specified in the eminent domain action.

Takings may be of the subject property in its entirety (total take) or in part (part take), either quantitatively or qualitatively (either partially in fee simple or, commonly, an easement, or any other interest less than the full fee simple title).

[quote author=Rapitex post=129664624][/quote]Do you think we are daft, owning a buliding in USA isnt your, State owns the land, you guys should stop all these petty lies.

Do you own your land in America?

In our legal system you can only own rights to land, you can't directly own (that is, have complete claim to) the land itself. You can't even own all the rights since the state always retains the right of eminent domain.

When the government takes private land for public use, it is known as eminent domain. This process typically involves compensating the landowner for the fair market value of the property.


In the USA it is called the Right of Eminent Domain. The usual compensation is somewhat over fair market value, perhaps 120%. While it is possible to sue to block this such lawsuits are seldom successful


As per power vested in government for Acquisition of land under different land reforms laws is given in USA constitution.

Government is competent to acquire your land for making roads but will give you handsome compensation as per the update rule prevailing in the said area. The rate will be taken from land registry office of the concerned district.

So stop telling people lies

Also even in UK

In the UK the government has various statutory powers to “take” land including buildings but the list given below is wider in concept..?

The terms used include:

Compulsory purchase - The term means procedures used when land owned by a private individual, private body or another public body is required for public purposes by a public body authorised to acquire it compulsorily and pay compensation
Confiscation - The term may be used when land and other property taken from you because they were gained as as proceeds of crime. Confiscation orders are made under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2005
Dispossession Edit 17/08/20 The government may dispossess occupiers of landed property in certain circumstances.
Expropriation - I have heard this to mean compulsory purchase.
Forfeiture The term is used when, as a landlord, the government takes back a lease of land when a tenant defaults on the terms and conditions of the lease.
Reparations Where a victorious government requires land (perhaps) and other property to replace resources it used in acting against an aggressor.
Requisition The term may describe the taking of land taken by a public body, eg the military in the event of war or an emergency. It is likely to be returned in due course.
Possession Edit 17/08/20 “Possession” is a term used in the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939 in connection with land occupied by the military, etc by requisition.
Seize a) A somewhat general term used to describe the taking of land, etc in any of the above, b) A term used when an enemy government takes private or public property for military purposes

here we have mortgage also and people can buy now and pay later but it is just madness

franchasofficia:
The only thing I would say is that our culture and system of buying anything we need; from cars to houses through one-off payment put Nigerians under pressure to make plenty money because there is no room to acquire anything in Nigeria through installment payment spread over a period of time.


This I can agree may have contributed to our high level of corruption, especially among civil servants, politicians and officials.


But as for who is richer? It is the person that buys and pay outrightly of course.


That mortgage system favors the poor and the average people abroad, but our people are making it seem like it is a measure of success, no Sirs and Mas, it is not, oyimbo put that credit system in place to reduce pressure on their citizens and to discourage people from indulging in financial crimes to afford the basic things they need in life.

High monthly payments: Mortgages typically come with long-term repayment periods, which can result in high monthly payments. If you have limited income or a high debt-to-income ratio, paying a high monthly mortgage payment can be a financial strain.

One significant disadvantage of taking out a mortgage is the long-term financial commitment involved. Depending on the length of your mortgage term, you may be making monthly payments for decades, tying up a significant portion of your income.

Debt – By taking out a mortgage, you're taking on a commitment to pay back a lot of money within a certain time period, including interest. Even over 25 years, you'll be paying a lot more back than you borrowed.

The longer the term of your mortgage, the higher an interest rate you might end up with. That could mean spending extra money on interest -- and taking longer to build equity in your home. In the early stages of paying off a mortgage, much of the money you put in goes toward interest on your loan, not principal.

WE PLAN HERE AND BUILD, MORTGAGE IS NOT HOME OWNERSHIP

Angelfrost:
You mean it's worse than paying rent every year for 30 years in Nigeria without ever owning your own house?!!

I keep telling you guys that what you claim to be enjoying here in Nigeria is low tax subsidized living which isn't normal, and which will keep Nigeria backwards.


The day courageous leaders will wake up and decide that enough is enough... Many of you will realize that all these comparisons make no sense.

ruggedtimi:
First nigerian from a russian university or that particular university in russia?

In a groundbreaking achievement, Justin Chukwudi Olewuezi has etched his name in the annals of Nigerian academic history by becoming the first Nigerian to graduate as a Doctor from a Russian University.

Olewuezi, a standout student from the Siberia State Medical University in Tomsk, Russia, has not only achieved this historic milestone but has also secured the title of the best graduating student in the Department of Medicine. His stellar academic performance is evidenced by an exceptional Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 5.00 out of 5.00.

His academic journey began at Tomsk Polytechnic University, where he immersed himself in the study of the Russian language alongside various scientific subjects. Subsequently, he transitioned to the Siberian State Medical University in Tomsk to pursue his medical education.

Dr. Olewuezi’s achievement is further underscored by the fact that he attained the highest possible grade point average in the university’s 135-year history. His remarkable feat not only brings honor to himself but also shines a spotlight on the potential and brilliance of Nigerian students on the global stage.

As Nigerians celebrate this extraordinary accomplishment, Olewuezi’s achievement serves as a testament to the power of determination, hard work, and dedication in pursuing academic excellence.
