This is the most ridiculous lie I've seen in Twitter.

Good job from NEC

However you decentralize the NPC

Always allow them to discipline Nigerians

I see most Nigerians happy because they engage in one illegal act or the other

I see them happy because they love indiscipline

Please add cane to their ammunition

Most Nigerians deserve serious beating

They are not above flogging

Don't even mind their age

Serious beating was what makes Steve Job to Cofounded Apple

Serious beating can make most Nigerians to Cofound a very big farm

Just as their great grandfathers did

And eventually lead them to journey of the 50's

The century they deserve

Damn, I love this sarcasm

I passed the smoothest road i have ever come across in Nigeria Kaduna-Zaria road.
As smooth as it is, Julius Berger is still working on it.
Doing what? Making it smoother..

I havent seen Julius Berger in the South for donkey years.

Neoteny:
This is horrendously wrong.

The blastocyst or zygote possess both chromosome pairs, and in the first few weeks only the X chromosome is expressed. This is why they say all mammals start as inherently female.

Later, either genetics or hormones will determine whether the Y chromosome will Express and dominate.

Sperm speed has nothing to do with it.

If you're a medical student or doctor ,then you have to read up your Sadler's embryology once more.
Read especially about what determines which chromosome will dominate.

Hint:some spematozoa already posses factors which determine sex

Where did you see Acura?

Most Intel's can be changed depending on the laptop manufacturer while AMD's aren't usually changeable on laptop.

For example Dell XPS processors are soldered to the board.

Back to question, you cannot upgrade AMD APU processors like yours. Your AMD doesn't have a dedicated graphics like you think. It's still a shared graphics but a good one.

Google for APU graphics

Answerbank:
What one perceives from the very poorly crafted Communique in shameful grammar by the National Association of Nigeran Students (NANS) leadership of Ebonyi State is, first of all, that they are not fit to present themselves as students of a tertiary educational institution; secondly, there is a pitiable failure to define what they are trying to achieve. Thirdly, they don't have the interest of AE-FUNAI students at heart. Let's take it one after the other.

NOT FIT TO BE CALLED UNDERGRADUATES
The very first sentence contained a bomb that will make primary school pupils collapse with laughter: "... a revolutionary and freedom greetings from ...". There are many other unforgivable grammatical blowouts that cause headache. If this frightening assemblage of grammatical errors is available in a single public release, then God help the teachers that mark the scripts of these so-called NANS leaders. These are probably professional students who find activism more profitable than finishing school and moving on with their lives. Their grammar suggests that they probably don't attend classes. Their English language should cause them to hide their faces in shame. Every one of them whose signature is on that material has become an embarrassment to humanity on account of such poor use of language by a higher education student. This, once more, calls to question the leadership recruitment process in Nigeria. One feels certain that there are students that speak and write more decently than this garbage. So, how come these are the ones representing the better students? Could it be that the better students are put off by the political system or too busy studying to care? Even rough students speak and write better than these ones. So what is the matter and where is this leading to? Ebonyi as a State should begin to get worried about this. The Special Adviser to Governor Dave Umahi on Youth/Student Affairs should begin to tell His Excellency that the people that will be contesting for his office in 20 years time are lame in language and possibly in logic. The Ebonyi State Commissioner for Economic Development needs to red-flag this letter and use it to extrapolate the quality of governance and public discourse in 10 - 20 years time. Economic Development is, firat about people. There is danger. Unless the State deliberately raises another set of leaders in other spheres, there will be huge a problem from this generation of student leaders with a fractured power of expression and reasoning.

WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO ACHIEVE?
The document which has been circulating as Communique stated, inter alia, "We, having honoured our meeting at AE-FUNAI subsequent to our notification that the management of AE-FUNAI having endorsed the formation of a forum called Funai Parents Forum which they used to impose a security fee of #50,000.00 (fifty thousand naira) on level 100 students and #5,000.00 on level 200 students in the name of security fee ...." This suggests (1) that the NANS people 'honoured' their meeting at AE-FUNAI, whatever that means; and (2) FUNAI PARENTS FORUM was " ... used to impose a security fee ...". This is where the logic gets illogical. From what one knows, FUNAI PARENTS FORUM is an assemblage of parents and guardians of students of AE-FUNAI. In 2016 when it was formed, the parents observed that chairs in most classrooms and lecture theaters had been broken in the course of use (and misuse). Hence, students had to stand or carry blocks to sit for their lectures and exams. It was also observed that there was no perimeter fence around the school and coming on the heels of experiences in Lagos state where students were kidnapped from their hostels as well as the Chibok experience, parents felt a dire need to wall the campus. Parents also expressed discomfort at the fact that staff didn't live on campus. People came to work from Abakaliki which is 30 minutes away and retired there at the end of each day, leaving the rather young male and especially female students alone through the night and weekends. There was no allocation in the 2016 Federal Budget to meet these crying needs and the parents decided to courageously take steps towards providing some of these facilities while seeing how they could help to have the items appropriated for in the 2017 federal budget. Accordingly, the parents met, agreed amongst themselves and communicated their agreement to the university to the effect that they would pay SECURITY AND INFRASTRUCTURE levy for each of their students. They fixed the amount themselves and they resolved not to tolerate the free rider phenomenon whereby some people choose to benefit without paying. That is where enforcement came from. It is curious to note that the NANS representatives appear not to recognize the dynamics at play here. It is not about the University raising money, it is about Parents wanting their children safe and provided for. FUNAI Parents manage the fund themselves. They construct what needs to be constructed and buy what needs to be bought. It is gladdening to note that so far, FUNAI PARENTS FORUM has contributed chairs in classrooms and lecture halls. Standing to take lectures or carrying blocks to sit on for exams has become a thing of the past. Many students do not even remember such an experience. Also, the perimeter fencing of the Ikwo campus is proceeding. The infamous herdsmen have been seen grazing cattle in the campus because of the porous nature of the borders. While we pray for no mishap, it is clear that the best remedy is to fence the premises and thus deny them access intoto. Trust God, but lock your doors. NANS, Ebonyi Zone should rather praise the AE-FUNAI Parents Forum, rather than vilify the University. This is a business of the parents, not that of University Management. If there are students or parents that are worried about the ability to pay, they should use the platform of the Parents Forum to ventillate their opinions. Just as NANS's Communique stated "We, having honoured our meeting at AE-FUNAI ..." all parents should equally "honour" their own meeting. If any NANS leader failed to "honour" their meeting, would it exculpate such a leader from ownership of the decision taken at the meeting?". NANS is a civilized assembly. It's leaders should demonstrate the requisite level of civilization on this matter. The answers you get depend on the questions you ask. You know an intelligent man by the answers he gives, but you know a wise man by the questions he asks. It's time for NANS Ebonyi to ask the right questions - in wisdom.

HIDDEN COST OF HIGHER EDUCATION
The Parents Forum Security and Infrastructure levy is a straightforward levy imposed by parents on themselves for the provision of infrastructure and the enhancement of security on campus. One's experience is that the AE-FUNAI Management remains largely transparent about key decisions on funds, funding and the like. Parents have also not been opaque. There is no staff or student, if such a person cares to listen, who doesn't know what the Levy is about, how it came about, what it is achieving and how it is managed. There is no hidden cost in AE-FUNAI, to the best of this writer's knowledge. Hidden costs in higher education include the fact that in many schools, after students complete their final exams, they often spend a year (or more) at home before being called up for National Youth Service. The amount they spend at home is more than the SECURITY & INFRASTRUCTURE Levy they appear to be talking about at AE-FUNAI. In many schools, you go doing what they call RECONCILLIATION after your final year exams, and it involves looking for your results from various departments and paying somebody or some persons to help you trace some of them in order to have Exams and Records build a composite result for you. It costs money in tips, transportation, feeding, etc which is far beyond what AE-FUNAI parents committed by themselves, for themselves to pay on behalf of their children and wards for Security & Infrastructure Levy. Parents are comfortable paying their own levy because they are certain that the rest of the process runs well. Handouts are not forced on their children, there is no record of 'sorting', sexual exploitation is a rarity. What you see is what you get.

THEY DON'T HAVE THE INTEREST OF AE-FUNAI STUDENTS AT HEART
Whatever the meaning of the NANS "ultimatum", it will be a great disservice to final year students of AE-FUNAI (who can speak far better English and script far more coherent communiques) if they are harassed and prevented from their external examinations. The corollary is that for the first time in history, AE-FUNAI graduates will not be called-up for National Youth Service in the year of their graduation. Another possibility is that the NANS Ebonyi Chapter executive which is peopled by persons outside AE-FUNAI will disrupt the on-going second semester examinations and students may have their 2017/18 second semester possibly finishing later in 2018 and they would thus be on their ways to spending 5 years for 4-year courses. None of these options is funny. One trusts that AE-FUNAI students will not allow themselves to fall into the trap of students of institutions that have a lax academic calendar.

Meanwhile, it is interesting to note the schools from which the Ebonyi NANS leaders signed their Release: Ebonyi State University (SUG President, Comrade Anyigor Julius), Ebonyi State College of Education, Ikwo (EBSCOEI SUG President, Comrade Nwankwo Anayor), Federal College of Agriculture, Isiagu (FCA IShiagu SUG President, Comrade Oshim Lawrence), and Akanu Ibiam Federal Polytechnic, Unwana (AIFP Unwana SUG President). I daresay that the quality of that Communique is an embarrassment to those three institutions. Their VC, Rector, and Provost need to do something about the quality of their students.

If you consider the Queen's English as your basis for judging excellence ,then I can say you're a failure.

You mean the parents collectively agreed for their wards to all pay 50k for fencing the school perimeter?. Something which should be the sole responsibility of the government or the school authorities?

You need some moral check

OfficialAPCNig:
The size of Indian Consumer Market is 1.2 billion. It is about 4 times that of USA.

https://www.ibef.org/industry/indian-consumer-market.aspx

But consumer spending in USA is higher than India.

This is what I am trying to explain to that dude. They have the consumer market (population), but we service those consumers (hence, we pocket the money).

(Fact).

I understand you and we are on the same page. poor population don't mean jack.

A single US household with 4 individuals will pay the bills for 5 large households in India.

OfficialAPCNig:
Do you even know what consumer market is?

In case you don't know, it equates the size of your population. If the size of Town A's population is 200 and Town B's is 150, there consumer markets are 200 and 150 respectively.

India have larger consumer market than US, yet US is still richer.

India does not have a larger consumer market than the US despite their population.

Even for food consumption the US tops the charts worldwide.

Students used to hold their teachers in high esteem and regards during my time. I don't know of today.

I'd prefer not to tell them I don't know it because it will reduce the confidence they had in me.i'll tell them it's not for their level then later bring it up when I'm knowledgeable enough.

As a teacher, your students should have confidence in you else you'll find it difficult to impact knowledge.

Bro have you actually gone to any market or shop selling this car to enquire about its price. Be fair to yourself today and just go and find out the true position of things about this today and then come back here to say what you discovered. I mean if you are fair to your own conscience o. I am cocksure you speaking from a position of ignorance about the current price of this car in the Nigerian market.

Like I said ,most auto dealers capitalize on the naivity of Nigerians as regards Toyota and especially Corolla. That is why many of them will hype and hike their prices.

The model is a Pre-facelift Corolla Sportif liftback United Kingdom version which is before 1999.

1998 or less model ooo. Most Nigerians will go-to hell

You can say what ever you want but ask yourself if any body mandated you not to do your due diligence before making any purchase or if anybody has forced you to part with your money. It seems you just started to fiddle with English words and is eager to practice them on nairaland

Go and get a teacher yourself.

Let's be humane abeg. If your brother buys this for 1.1 million because of lack of due diligence,will you be happy?
