George_D: curiousman66,
what you're experiencing now with multi-tv is nothing new. as a free to air bouquet it means you don't pay any
subscription for what they're giving you and hence they're totally at liberty to do whatever they like.
within reasonable limits most fta stations behave this way.
however even the so-called pay-tv channels where you are forced to pay through the nose for what you watch are
little different as they do also interrupt viewing (on a few occasions) whereby they slot in useless adverts
and inconvenience subscribers who have already paid to avoid these in the first place!

searay: @OP
you been want show yourself there abi? You think say, you dey NL, where you fit do any anyhow? You, where dey criticise army say, dem no sabi deal with BH, u for hear am today. Thk ur lucky star.

bsparks: My point exactly. If I'm not mistaken, the present 'hungry man' size is what the then 'regular' used to be. I remember back in the day, like 2 - 3 packs of the then regular would suffice for my whole family.
If the Indomie people planned this 'downsizing' in advance then they've pulled off some kind of 'coup de gras'

mukina2: I love them. its full of everything. intrigues, love, suspense,betrayal. they are well organised and very original. i kinda prefer the olden Joseon days ones though.

Orikinla: So much noise has been made over the worth of Nollywood, the Nigerian film industry and with many opportunists going gaga over the claims of Nollywood being the second or third largest movie industry in the world after Hollywood and Bollywood. But when compared to Bollywood and Hollywood, Nollywood is child's play in current box office ratings of films made in the world.

The highest grossing Nigerian film in Nigeria is Chineze Anyaene's IJÉ the Journey that even made less than N100 million and that is not up to one million dollars and in Hollywood any film that did not make up to $1m at the box office is a failure. What IJÉ the Journey made at the cinemas in Nigeria in over 12 months is what the worst performing Hollywood movie makes from the box office.

The next highest grossing Nollywood movies made between N30 million and N50 million.
What is N30 million in dollars?
Any Nigerian producer who makes N30 or N80 million, about ($500, 000) and is celebrating will be a laughing stock in Hollywood when the movie cost almost twice for the production.

Lest we forget, the history of film making in Nigeria dates back to 1904 when the first Nigerian film Palaver was shot in Jos. And we have been having collaborations with Hollywood since Ossie Davis (December 18, 1917 – February 4, 2005) came to Nigeria to shoot the film adaptation of Nobel Laureate Prof. Wole Soyinka's Kongi's Harvest in 1971 for Francis Oladele's Calpenny Limited and Countdown at Kusini in 1976. And even before then Segun Olusola co-produced Son of Africa in 1970 and Oladele's second film was Bullfrog in the Sun in 1972, the film adaptation of Things Fall Apart and No Longer at Ease, directed by a German Pohland Hansjürgen with the famous Princess Elisabeth of Toro, who was a lawyer in Uganda and a model in New York playing the leading actress role. Then there were over 100 cinemas in Nigeria. So, Nigeria has come a long way before Nollywood videographers emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s with the popular video blockbuster Living in Bondage directed by Chris Obi Rapu, written by Kenneth Nnebue and Okechukwu Ogunjiofor, aka "Paulo" blazing the trail for a new era in Nigerian film history.

The most expensive Nigerian film presently is the film adaptation of Half of A Yellow Sun, the award winning novel of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, directed by Biyi Bandele and produced by Andrea Calderwood, best known for her thriller The Last King Of Scotland that won an Oscar for Forest Whitaker's classic portrayal of the barbaric Ugandan dictator Idi Amin Dada. The producers said the budget is $8 million. And this is projected to be the first Nigerian film that may make the US box office in 2013.

Skii: Is this a sign of something they have seen that we have not? Is the oil starting to finish? Are they planning a careful exit strategy?

Assuming the purported oil that we have is actually less than it is, are they envisaging a scenario where it will suddenly dawn on Nigeria that there is not even a single drop anymore and that they would be the ones to take the blame immediately?

Hmm....this thing is fishy o

Tony Spike: I support this approach. Putting down the sender's and the recipient's phone number is advantageous.

4bobo: the same man that said phone or hand set is not for common man on the street many years ago, abi? Now attacking the users again. He has never said thruthfully what is i his mind. Let me help him: speculations have it that he wanted to contest for president and no way to rig elections again by pdp rigging method because social media has come to stay. People tweet, call ,post and take pictures during elections and pdp are loosing it. Sorry o, you have lost in this one, mr.president, or sorry, mr. Senate presido

Elueme: As usual, very undemocratic and non- people oriented policy.. If I may ask when will Fashola mk policies that will benefit the already impoverished masses in Lagos.. All these traffic rules or laws are only serving few touts and NURTWS..as well as the political goons who control these revenue agencies.. More money for Tinubu to sponsor anti FG propaganda.. Thumbs up

Maxymilliano: Not sure you can still make a first class, but your likelihood of attaining a second class upper is 50:50 depending on how you view your present situation and how far you can go to make necessary adjustment. Mine was 1.65 Cpga in my first year but was able to crawl my way to 3.51 at the end of my studies. It wasn't easy tho but like i said, it depends on you. Wish you luck tho.

miteolu: Friend, do not be deceived. Even to go by random sampling it is not possible. Prof Kofoworola Odeyemi of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, should have told us their samplings. Some one can not sit in Lagos & be telling us unrealistic orthodoxy composed figures.
