OneTemplate: Video: Armoured Van Robbery Ajah Lagos Today!!!
This was earlier today. Apparently the attackers used AK47 and fired wildly. Some of us warned of stolen and looted weapons in wrong hands.
Ajah and Badore has a lot of thugs, cultists and criminal elements but I can't recall anything like this happening before. Someone sad to me today this is a sign of things to come through December. Lagosians be careful and watchful.
ggood: one Nigeria my foot, Niger Delta must control their oil too.
The Northerners are shouting one Nigeria just because of oil, remove oil in Nigeria and see Nigeria divide in less than 24hrs.
See my dear Southerners I Base in the North so I know what am talking about the Northerners see Southerners as weak, inferior and second class citizens.
Some are too bold to tell me that Nigeria belong them that nothing can be done about it.
Come to their Universities and polytechnics here in North you don't fail them as a Southern Lecturer if you do the VC or Rector will send for you.
it's only in the North that you will see a final year student in Universities and polytechnics that can not speak nor write English it's terrible over here, but at the End they will pass exams
Good afternoon! Hope we are having a nice weekend. The reading of today circled around the parables of; The lost sheep, Lost coin and The prodigal son.
I know we are all familiar with the story (Luke 15:3-32).
But today the priest highlighted an important point /difference.
He compared the parables to different types of sinners. *The prodigal son* He realized his mistake and came back on his own. This includes those that has fallen from the faith but are/were able to find their way back. *The lost sheep* A lost sheep can't locate his way home but is always wondering about searching for someone to lead it home. A lot of Christians are in this class but they keep falling into the hands of fake prophets, pastorpreneurs etc. But if they can come in contact with the right "shepherd", they would follow home. *A lost coin* A lost coin is comfortable where it is. It infact is not aware that he is lost. A lot of people are in this class. They have left the faith and are not bothered /concerned. They are comfortable in sin. A lost coin needs a dedicated seeker to find it and bring it home.
The bottom line is that God is always ready to welcome us back. (No matter our class above) .
Let's make conscious effort to get back to our Father's house. ���
Oscarz: When asked a question according to the number you've picked, relax, think about it, before giving your answer. Don't rush, since that part isn't timed. Goodluck
Good evening, please is there any update from EKEDC.
TundexHOF: They sent me the same mail, of which I filled and replied that same 29th, now they sent me same mail again yesterday (30th), well I still filled and replied again. Who else has this experience
Good morning. After stamp Duty Charge finish d small money wen b de my account. I decided to visit them. The person I met said ...the Stamp duty charge of #50. is charged on ur account for any deposit into d account (Greater than #1000) by any person not d owner of d account. Diamond bank said it is charged directly from/by CBN. It is charged in/on/from every bank. I think y d charge is not very heavy on our other accounts is may be we don't do much of second person deposit to those banks account or they charge immediately d transaction is done. The problem is they allowed it to accumulate b4 removing it. The diamond bank accounts getting little or no Stamp duty charge are those that are either new or don't have much of second person deposits into d account. Whatever d reason is I know what happened is not really good 4 business. Even on my side I think may be CBN wan shake Diamond, y make their own so visible. # Not_trying_to_make_u_Change_ur_Stance
http:///?i=clevercashflow@gmail.com MMM-founded by a Russian "Fraudster". I have seen many write ups discouraging pple from joining MMM saying it is a Ponzi scheme. I am not writing to disprove that. But to state clearly that it is a single story. MMM is very risky, infact the risk can be as high as 100℅ loss. Recently their have been news of mmm failing in some African countries and the Truth is one day the Nigeria system will also fail. Any one that tells you that mmm will never fail is a lier. But that's not the only truth. MMM is a system that pays u +30℅on any amount you put into the system. It is a family of help givers. U get a bonus of 20$ for opening your account with an amount about #20,000. You get 10% bonus for anyone that uses you as his/her referral. The most frequently asked question is this " how do MMM make enough money to pay for all this bonuses??" In MMM, you don't pay money to d organizations personal account. You only pay to ordinary individuals who are participants and are due to receive their pay. You might want to complain. But this is almost the same system that most networking business operate on. You put in ur capital to run another man's business,as if that is Not enough, you have to help market/sell his products or b forced to use them ur self, as if that isn't too much, some systems wouldn't pay u until you have recruited a certain number of new members. The funny thing is that most people do this happily with out even noticing that they are being used. MMM offers u a platform that you are paid for the money you invest. If you take extra step to recruit others, it rewards that with +10℅. Some weeks ago I saw a post from a government agency discouraging people from joining MMM, reason being that they operate same way other networking business operate. My question was why haven't they preached against GNLD and d likes, I av been involved in some plain networking business before. But I got a thought that I believe is my answer. FG is only trying to protect its banks & co whom MMM poses a treat to. With more people joining mmm, money wouldn't be lying dormant in the bank, for them to use as they like.
I am an mmm participant. What I wrote I call my view on Mmm. I know it will fail oneday. I know the best time to join is now. I know that those that invest early will surely reap. I know mmm is risky. I know it also pays I believe in no risk no pay You can add me on watsapp or call me on 08161802613 for more information.

Hardeyghold: No longer a rumor about what we read/heard consigning Tee Billz and Tiwa Savage (Tee Billz Wife) .
But was later confirmed that Tee Billz Instagram account was hacked.
Hadegold.net decided to shed more light to the news which are facts why you shouldn””t believe the account was hacked.
These are the reasons:
1. An Hacker shouldn””t be able to know how Tiwa Savage Father Divorced his Wife.
"Lord knows I tried. I have been mentally tortured by my the woman I gave everything to. I’m not perfect but I’m far away from being the best husband. Because when I dint have you paid bills and you took my man hood away. You have thrown my clothes out of the house more than 5 times because of the love I have for you I still take it and because of Jamil. I don’t want to go through divorce like my father that has been Married 4times. Your mother humiliated so much that I dint care."
2. An hacker shouldn””t know how Tuface Wife and Omawumi do bring ready made meal to Tee Billz house when needed.
"Tosin Yosuf aka Omawunmi‘s husband. I wish I met you earlier when I just moved to Nigeria. You have been a great friend and brother to me in throne month. I should have done this 2weeks a ago but the joy of being around dint let me. You have wife that he not let the music business take the best of her. I know how Mrs Yusuf treats us when we at your house. I feel very at home and praying that I wish my wife can get a life and be like this. All she cares about is next single, her make and hair, her brand and all that BS. Pls tell the world have you asked your husband in the last 3yrs if he has eaten. Thank you to Ani Idibia and Anita my Neigbor that provides home cooked meal for me when I needed. That! Yes you became the bread winner when I decided I’m not in business with you again take everything I just want my wife. Tiwa. You will never have peace except my spirits forgives you. Tell your mother to confess what she mounted in the house for you shine with my star. It’s deeper than what you think."
3. Banky-W Wouldn””t have post a comment on Tee Billz instagram page pleading Tee Billz to give him a call.
4. This wouldn””t have come up on Linda Ikeji””s Blog with an eye witness Testifying that he saw Tee Billz on Lekki Bridge This Morning.
“I thought I was watching a movie” Ani told LIB “the man held the railing and tried to jump over it and that was when the yellow man held him and started shouting for help. The two of them nearly fell into the water. I quickly joined the yellow man to pull the guy out and while we were struggling with him, one PSquare twin (Peter Okoye) and Banky W joined us to pull the man out ” Ani said

abrahambest: As a graduate who came very close to finishing with a first class in engineering, I can easily identify errors that cost students the prestigious first class degree. I made one or two of these mistakes. Over the span of five years that I spent in the university, I saw lots of people make the same mistakes outlined here. Many brilliant students start with the initial dream of graduating with a first class, only to end up struggling to even finish with a 2.1. Obtaining a first class takes a great deal of hardwork, consistency, intelligence but most importantly discipline. Commit these errors and your chances of getting a first class will be very slim if not nil.
1. Womanizing – This is not about having a committed girlfriend in school which can even be very distracting. This is referring to keeping strings of girlfriends while in school, or pursuing anything in skirt. I am not speaking for or against womanizing in school. But womanizing is the quickest way of ensuring that your dream of graduating with a first class vanishes into thin air as your attention towards your academic studies will be greatly divided.
2. Not starting well – Except UNIBEN which notably operates CGPA system that is based on percentage depending on undergraduate level, all other universities operate a cumulative system based on credit load of individual courses. Most first class graduates build a solid foundation in the first 2 years in school. Thereafter, they ensure they do not fall below the boundary. Not having a high CGPA in your first 2 years means that you will not have any buffer during tough academic times, as the going may get tougher as you progress and your CGPA may become progressively lower. Your academic standing after your first 2 years can make or mar your chances of graduating with a first class. In addition, having a high CGPA may help build you gain respect amongst students or even lecturers who may be careful when marking your scripts so as not to make mistakes.
3. Placing less significance on small unit courses – Yes, some courses may carry smaller credit units but they count. Such courses may be electives and general courses. Cumulate all those courses and you will surprised about how big the effect can be. Every ‘A’ grade matters especially if you just on the edge, and there may be moments when it is the smaller unit courses that keep you above the boundary. One of the critical moments that defined my final CGPA was a 2-unit course that dropped my CGPA from a potential 4.51 to a 4.47 in my penultimate semester.
4. Not studying hard enough – I need not say much about this. Studying hard does not necessarily mean spending long hours reading in classes. Studying hard involves studying with high level of intensity and depth within a study period. The difference between a first class student and others is the attention to detail when studying. I use myself as an example. I remember that eventhough I sometimes spent hours reading, I was always too lazy to solve sample problems. In many cases, I overestimated my level of assimilation. I sometimes got away with it in exams but it cost me a few important A’s which would have made significant differences in my final CGPA.
5. Not taking internship and project work seriously – SIWES (internship) is mainly for science and engineering students. Internship has a combined credit load of about 12 – 15 units depending on the course and the institution. Imagine what damage a ‘B’ can do a first class student! You don’t necessarily have to work for a top company as an intern. Sloppiness in filling log books, poorly written internship report, and inadequate preparation towards defense of industrial attachment are enough to cost you an ‘A’ grade.
Project and practical works also carry significant credit load as well. Practical work can be particularly tedious, and undisciplined students can be lax about it.
6. Allowing the opinion of mediocre students influence you – Average students will always be negative about their academic environment. They will talk about how tough it is to graduate with a 2.1 much less a first class. They will complain about how tough the courses or the lecturers are. They will remind you about the failure rate in the past. They will play the victim when they fail exams. They will congratulate themselves on how ‘lucky’ they are to escape a carryover with an E grade. They will continually demonize the school environment and their department. They will never say anything but positive things about the school. They will criticize everyone but themselves. Feed your mind with such thoughts from them and kiss goodbye to your dreams of graduating with a first class.
7. Not seeking help / information – Not seeking information can be harm your chances of finishing with a first. Information gathering is important in the pursuit of a first class. Having the right set of past questions, exam materials, handbooks, textbooks, etc. matters a lot. Most Nigerian lecturers have different handbooks, textbooks or online materials they are comfortable with. They often set exams from these handbooks and textbooks. First class students are aware of these and sought to get the necessary information.
Forget secondary school days when you can be completely independent and isolated. In the university, you will likely encounter academic challenges one way or the other, you matter how good you are. You will need the help of others who are equally good. Build high walls around you and it’s almost a certainty that you won’t graduate with a first class.
8. Helping others during exams – I have seen and read about how potential first class students make this mistake that can deprive them of not just their dream grade but their entire aspiration. A lot of people look up to first class students to help them during exams, not minding the distraction it may cost them. Some even make monetary requests for first class students to write exams on their behalf. Time after time, brilliant students keep falling for this trap without thinking of the consequence of being expelled or rusticated.
In many cases, first class students already have good reputations amongst their fellow students and lecturers, and being caught teaching in exams can soil that reputation.
9. Not attending classes – I have seen many that graduate with 2.1 that ‘stabbed’ classes on a regular basis. But I am yet to see or hear of a genuine first class student/graduate that deliberately missed classes frequently at least in their last 2 years of study. They attend classes because 1) They want to listen to the salient points made by the lecturers so that they can understand better and prepare well for tests and exams. Attending classes is one way of getting information 2) First class students are perceived to represent the department and generally have a good image. Not attending classes can damage their reputation 3) Many lecturers take attendance seriously and allocate marks to attendance 4) There can be impromptu tests and classworks during classes.
You want to graduate with a first class but you keep skipping classes? Then think twice.
10. Not taking care of your health– Some, in the bid to get a first class, spend almost all their time and energy reading. They are always in class reading or attending one tutorial or the other, and they often do overnight reading not minding the fact that their body needs to be catered for. Consequently, they experience frequent health breakdowns, and this can cause serious setbacks in their dream to achieve a first class. Nothing can be more frustrating that falling ill in an academic session. Wanting to have a first class does not mean that you cannot eat well, rest when necessary, relax, play games and manage stress. Nurture your health. Health is wealth
