now that's the kinda man i need in my life, a guy with brain who uses it in the academic world not dudes of now aday using their brain to get pussy.
kenneth is a bae, tall, dark handsome and brilliant hahaha......

Good, we will also like to ask: WHAT ARE YOU BRINGING TO THE TABLE?

Guys like Kenneth are not interested in slay Mamas whose only qualification and contribution, is a big-butt/pussy and an eye for 'eye-phone'!
More grease to oyur elbow, Kenneth.


BTW: Kenneth graduated with a 2^1, according to the body of the post, not 1st Class as claimed by the thread heading.
is this a deliberate 'padding' or just a plain foolish mistake?

biacan:
Shut up what the Ego is happening to you...? Which husband are you talking about ? He was never married to her stop misleading people

It does not matter, they were living-lovers, in a relationship akin to marriage.
The fact that you have not done wedding with someone, does not mean you are not married to the person.
What the law does is "look at the type of relationship" between the two of you.
In some countries, they are called "partners" and they enjoy the same rights as legally married couples.

End of story.

But l do not think killing her was the way to go (she told her sister she was about dumping him).
That is a very stupid thing to do.

I think the United Kingdom has over the years appeared to be ignorant about the role they played in creating these social vices in most third world countries they colonised.


It's really funny how UK keeps mocking us when Nigeria was their pet project. The same crocks that looted our natural resources. Our art works which they stole still sit on their museum generating millions of pounds every year yet, the Queen is head of the Church of England which has the Anglican Church under it and they have never had any remorse not to talk of honourably towing the path of restitution.

I still wonder why Nigerians send their kids to UK to study. They will only end up brainwashing you to feel less of yourself.

I stand to be corrected if Nigeria has committed 1% of crime against humanity committed by the United Kingdom but, albeit you will never see it on their useless syllabus.

For the record, I'm not in support of any form of Scam. I believe if you reach an agreement for a transaction you should carry out to the letter and where it's not possible to carry out a full refund is honourable.

Looking at the definition of "advance fee fraud" a.k.a 419, 'You pay someone and advance fee, with the hope of getting a bigger illicit monetary returns but may end up with something smaller or nothing".

While l abhor fraud, l think everyone that is defrauded under this 419 scheme, deserves it 101%.

For example, someone tells you to bring $5,000, that he will lodge $1,000,000 in your account, from the money of one dead man or one money forgotten by CBN in an account and you will share the money 50-50.

Even if you beleive the story, you know this is CRIMINAL.
But out of GREED, you agree to it....which makes you a Criminal as well.
So, one criminal pays another criminal $5,000, to commit a crime and the first criminal now defrauds the second criminal.

How is that anyone's problem or why should that make the criminal that was defrauded, deserving of any sympathy?
Or is it just because the second, foolish and greedy criminal is a 'white person' and the first, greedy and smart criminal is a black person or Nigerian?

I honestly think we should encourage 419 at Govt level (Just as FBI will encourage and lure some Muslim person into planning a terror act and then arrest him for terrorism!), and then arrest the 'white people' that want to collude with any Nigerian, to defraud our CBN or nation.

We should continue to do so until all these greedy white people who think they are smart, learn their lessons.

Boland:
Hello Nairalanders,

I read a thread where a guy was complaining about ladies demanding too much from him and I understand his plight and also, I believe he is yet to face reality.

We all have the responsibility to grow and as such we don't just grow physically, we grow mentally, emotionally and spiritually (this applies to religious folks).

If you want a lady as your own, don't just rush to get anyone to satisfy your sexual urge, you have the responsibility of seaching, waiting and checking well before getting a lady that suits your taste and one that won't be a weight to your race in life.
You wouldn't expect apple to grow on a coconut tree just the same way you shouldn't expect maturity and independence from a teenage girl or some typical kind of girls.If what you want doesn't exist in their own world, you have no business with them.

It's high time y'all started to acknowledge that a Man that intends to manifest as a Man has the responsibilty of providing. If you're yet to possess the "Men's quality", kindly wait untill when you'll be, don't complain, focus on what matters, and if you see a lady that believes in your dream and if she's ready to go through the "rough times" with you, nice, but if not, don't complain.

I see slay queens everyday and I know in my mind that I have absolutely no business with them, all I can do is to preach Jesus to them if I see anyone that cares to listen.
And I see most of y'all complain about Feminism when in actual sense those qualities these feminists possess are what fits into the criterion of the type of lady you want.

The world is what it is, learn how to deal with it. Complaining only proves that you're not fit to deal with it, which may also mean that you don't intend to grow.

Let the Men be Men and Women be Women.

What is your UNDERSTANDING and EXPERIENCE of this Feminism you are talking about?
kindly explain, with reference to your bolded statement above.

Thanks

Tompeters:
Thanks sir.... But most of the stuffs like AC, WATER HEATER, SOME OF THE LIGHTINGS WILL NOT EVEN BE USED FOR THE NOW

But the wiring has to be done now, as in put in place pending when they will be used, right?

or did l misunderstand you?

I am assuming once this is done, you will be plastering the place, if you have not already done so.
also, getting a second independent quote, as adviced by the poste above, is really a good way to compare.

*** I think it was madam @gabbytabby who gave a breakdown of the average wiring per Flat, sometimes ago.***
Dont know if l can still find that post but you can search for it with her username.

Pepsi101:
Have you heard testimonies from the Sergeant at arms ?



Have you heard testimony from security at the gate that said "he" told them to allow the would be invaders to pass cos they are with him?



Have you heard the testimony of the DPO in charge of the national assembly?



Have you asked yourself, why will the senator run to get court injunction the same day when nobody accused him of anything?



Have you wondered why all the arrested invaders are from Delta state?

I will take it that YOU have heard all these testimonies, right?
If that is so, please kindly provide them here or provide the source where we can also read them.... instead of posing all these "have you heard" this and that.

Pepsi101:
How did the invaders gain entrance?


Whose car brought them inside the complex?

I really don thave the answers to those questions.
I know the NASS has POLICE Services on standby, those should be the ones investigating or being probed to explain how the thugs got into the Assembly, not Omo-Agege.

Or maybe you have the answers...and please provide such answers with PROOFS.
I dont entertain beer-parlour gossips or Mama Sikira said x,y,z.

Pepsi101:
I hope these dimwits hailing this senator because they hate Saraki,will not complain when the military comes with a coup because stealing the mace in a democratic dispensation and getting away with it only portends danger to our democracy.





P.S So many people died for this our democracy, perhaps their relatives never contributed to get this democracy.

Are you actually assuming that it was Omo-Agege who stole the Mace of organised its stealing?
Do oyu have any PROOF of this?
Or are you saying this just because you are 'fan' of Saraki?

Thing is, Omo-Agege is a smart Lawyer!
I dont have proof that he organised or stole the Mace so l will give him the benefit of doubt until he is proven guilty by a competent law court, not some 'gang-up' Senators. (and then he should be jailed).

Some of these Senators, including this Panel Chairman, are so daft they just cant educate themselves on what "The Law" says!
Once a matter is in court, discussing or investigating it is 'subjudice'.... a criminal offense in itself. It does not matter whether you like it or not.

Again, instead of Saraki to setup a panel to investigate the snatching of the Mace, immediately it happened, he went about accusing Omo-Agege for the theft and suspended him immediately, even without any investigation and evidence....... but now that the court has asked that he be re-instated in the Senate, Saraki and his Goons are just waking up to setup an investigativ ePanel!
And they want the same person 'they have already convicted' on heresay, to corporate with them?

These Senators want to make laws (Legislative arm) and they want to 'interprete' the same Laws as well (Judicial Arm) and even arrest and jail any one they pronounce guilty (Executive Arm)...... forgetting that this is a democracy operating under the dictum of 'Separation of Powers'!
But what do we expect, in a NASS filled with Criminals, Certificate forgers, Serial Looters, Murderers and plane idiots?


Any sensible person will do exactly the same thing Omo-Agege is doing.
It takes two to tango.
if you want to catch a thief, then you must be ready to act like a thief.

Paperwhite:
What an audacity,absurdity & brazen display of rascality.Recalled the senator & his thugs accessed the NASS on that day of infamy via the presidential entrance.

This is still affirming that the Buhari-led APC regime have formally institute a culture where anyone can desecrate our sovereignty with impunity.After the president himself have been administering Nigeria with utter disregard for the rule of law & Nigerian constitution.

Remember the Rotimi Amaechi statement of "APC will form a parallel government if 2015 elections were rigged"?

Will you 'Stop shouting" my friend?

Tompeters:
I am supervising a house project for 2flats of 3 bedrooms each and the electrician gave Me this quotation for the wiring of just one flat as follows :

6 roll of 1.5mm red
3 roll of 1.5mm black
3 roll of 1.5mm yellow

2 roll of 2.5mm red
2 roll of 2.5mm black

1 roll of 4mm red
1 roll of 4mm Black

One roll of 10mm red


All I want to know from you guys is if this should be for the whole house or just one flat...

Please house help out

A few things will determine whether this is just for one flat or both:

- Size of each flat and each room (Some single flat can be as big as two smaller flats combined)
- The arraingement of the wiring ( some like me, like to run all circuits/wires separately! All Bulbs, all sockets, all A.C's, Cookers, compound lightings, e.t.c all on separate wiring lines.
This makes troubleshooting easy.
- Other options like chandeliers, Wall lights, Inverter, UPS line, Solar Power wirings, e.t.c all increase the amount fo wiring beyond normal.

But looking at what you have, l dont think it can wire two flats completely though depending on what you require, it may be a little excess for single flat.

My advice: Give them the wire as they need it (dont drop everything into their lap) and monitor the usage.

Haba just to fix leak, with this long eassy instruction by the time the guy finished reading, he may not remember the first sentence. My brother pls no go teach oh, if you do all your students will not comprehend anything at the end of the day.

Your point is well noted.
It is not everybody that suffers from 'short attention span' though it is a treatable disease.
I hope l dont have a student like you, if l decide to teach because it will likely be 'left-ear-in, right-ear-out'!

How is your week going Bro?


BTW: Do you have to quote the whole 'long' write-up THREE TIMES, just to make that inane point?
Please delete at least two, out of it.

@ Daboomb, you are indeed an encyclopedia of knowledge, you are knowledgeable in almost every field or do I say, you always have something substantial to contribute in every discuss and your contribution do make sense, from politics, health, science, technology and building construction Are you a building Engineer? because your detailed analysis on here is commendable, look at the way you detailed the solution to the Septic tank challenge, nawao, if I have this kind of challenge on my site, even if l know nothing about building, with the assistance of a professional on my site, l will be reading all you suggested to him

Thank you Bros, l feel so flaterred.

I am a voracious student of knowledge, in any feild.
The more we learn, the more we know.

BTW, l did manage to school up to standard 3+.

Thanks bro,

I really appreciate your detailed explanation, but I will not mind if the team that did your friends own can come for mine too. Can that be possible.
Thanks one again.

Chairman, there is actually no 'team'!
just my friend AND myself (in supervisory role) with the assistance of Manual labour bricklayers but they are currently on another of our project in Abuja right now.

It is not difficult and that is why l took time to explain every step in very high detail.
I have given you all you need, if you dont undertsand anything there, just ask.
What exactly do you think you cant do here?

This is why we call this section DIY.
You can do it, just get two bricklayers to do the flooring, based on your instructions and supervision.
Except you are not personally on ground.

Barryton:
Well exlained sir.
Those rods we use for reinforcement are they also galvanized or just pure iron?

Just ordinary 'pure' wrought iron.

Well Galvanized iron has a greyish / silver colour coating of Zinc though the type we have over here in Nigeria is not properly done, the Zinc coating is just too light and fades away in no time.

bixton:
Good one. Hope he understands this whole process.

Thank you bros.

Can you pls edit your post so you dont quote the whole 'long story' (just a few lines so we know what you are referring to, will do)?
Nor vex o, say l dey suggest to you.
This thread don nearly reach 1000 pages

madridguy:
I think this is one of the reason the FG should start controlling the media. How could someone take a picture of other and paste online for the whole world to see. To me, this is high level of wickedness against the man.

Though am not in support of the officer's action especially with uniform but the people behind this wicked act should have put into consideration the negative effect of posting the picture online for the world to see.

This picture will hunt this man and his family forever.

This can lead to divorce between him and wife and also scattered his family.

This can cost him his job and hinder his promotion.

Lastly, it's a big slap on Nigeria Police.

I hope when the policeman set for return match with whomever that released his picture for the world to see the culprit won't be crying foul.

Crass!
You are an embarrasment to civilised people, for even advocating that the Policeman come back and hunt whoever released this picture.
Now we know the real you and how people like you will behave, if put in position of authority.
You will certainly abuse your position and power.

We are not talking about just anybody here, we are talking about a "Uniformed Officer of the law"!

"To whom much is given, much is expected'.

If you decide you want to be esteemed as a Police officer, to be respected, to be in a position to judge others, to have the power to arrest others for wrong doing, at times with powers of 'life and death'... then you should know how to live above-board!

Was the alcohol forced down his throat?
Could he not get home first before getting drunk?
Could he not at least, respect himself and that "Uniform of authority" by removing it before engaging in a drunken bout?
(In saner climes, an officer must NEVER drink while on duty or with his uniform on him...he gets the boot right away!)

Now imagine, if thisone has a gun, as many of them do, drunk as he is, decides to ENFORCE THE LAW, in his drunken state?!
You see why we have so many accidental discharge and Police violence on fellow Police officers?
This sort of person, who lacks self control (a strict requirement for anyone who handles a weapon), doesnot deserve to wear any Uniform.

So, to you, the Govt should gag Nigerians just to prevent some unworthy, reckless and irresponsible officer to remian annonymous while he will turn around to harrass others for inproper behaviour?

You are certainly off your rockers, Mr. man.

My people in the house, please I'm still waiting for your responses on this staircase railing thing...
Preference for durability and cost.
Thank you

first, they cost different amounts, so it boils down to your taste and size of your wallet.

- Stainless Steel is the best, makes the house look elegant but costs maybe thrice as much.
It is also a bit difficult to bend, if your railings are circular in nature, like in a spiral staircase.

- Galvanized iron is next in terms of pricing but it is a bit difficult to get Painst that would adhere to it perfectly (except you dont want to paint it...and our Nigerian version of galvanized steel are nt really good as som eof them will start rusting after a few years!)

- Iron is down the list, not too costly, easy to bend and does not break!
But cannot give you the class of stainless Steel, for example.

If you can squeeze the money, use Stailess Steel, it is about 21K - 25K per Square-meter, depending on the design.

Hope this helps.

bixton:
You will have to use water seal + your concrete mix or just the water seal + cement +sharp sand for that particular area. There are various types and you can find them in outlets where they sell tiles.
If you can wait till dry season to empty the soakaway and properly attend to it giving if there will be no water or not much water coming from the floor/edges so it cures well then that would be fine.

Note a soakaway is supposed to hold water and I naturally do not think that this is an issue except if it will lead to collapse. Just observe the tide of the water. Also consider increasing the height of the soakaway.

Iti is not an issue except that instead of spending money to evacuate faeces from your soakaway, say once in two years or once a year, you will be spending money to evacuate this leaking one, once every month!

Not a nice thing for poor people like us.

sako28:
It was precasted on surface and left to cure for more than 3 weeks before they sank it. The walls are not leaking. the leak is coming from the bottom at the edges. The water pressure is high.
From finding in the neighborhood everyone's septic tank leaks but in various degree and intensity. i want to get mine right.

Hmmm.. this probelm can be very frustrating, my friend went through hell, before he sorted his own.
I was with him all the way because 'l told him what does not have mouth, cannot be wiser than two intelligent adults'.

I want to see if l can request him to post me his pictures, so l can share it here.

- Since the leak is from the side edges, it is due to hydrostatic pressure from underground water.
- The more you seal it, the more the pressure increase, as water must find its way.
- Nothing can stop that pressure, except the type of 'instant dry cement mix' used in consturcting bridges but you are not Julius Berger so you wont have that.

Here are what you need to do:

Requirement: Concrete mix sealant like HydroSeal. (Contact this guy, Peter Olabode 07060415187. A 5Litre keg was 16K)
One length of 3" pipe. A few Bags of Cement. Enough PVC Construction Nylon to cover the base of the tank. Sand, some Granite and Iron Rods.

1. You are buying Concrete Sealant which you will mix with the Cement mixture, used in flooring the base.

2. You are going to lose some depth since the problem is already there. Leave the side leakage alone, let it leak.
You will be creating a completely NEW BASE. (But you can save cost by reducing the amount of iron since the first/current base is strong enough to prevent collapse but not enough to prevent water ingress.)

3. Get a good, working Water pumping machine on ground. You will need this to pump water continiously for at least the first 12hrs and intermittently afterwards, depending on how quickly the water returned.

Important: The 'sucking' rigid hose of the pump (the hose part that sucks the water from ground into the pump machine) should be less than 3". You will need to remove the strainer at the end, so it can enter a 3" Pipe.
Suck all the water out first and then proceed as below.

4. Put 6" blocks, randomly on the current floor of the tank (about 12 to 18 blocks will do, depending on the size of your tank(let us call this floor, 'floor 1', for easy nomenclature). The new one will be called 'floor 2'.
The blocks will support the new wooden base of 'floor 2' while also allowing water to pass around between them.
Dont crowd the floor too much with blocks but put enough to support the weight of the new floor and the person who will be casting it!

5. Put 1x12" wooden planks on the blocks to form a platform, so the new platform has a height of one block, above the old 'floor 1'.

6. Using a plum-line, mark out a new baseline for the tank (all around the walls, just along the plank line).

7. Chisel about 2" deep (horizontally and vertically into the wall, all round the tank wall, at the edges of where the wooden platform will start from.
The idea is to create a good bond between the wall and the tank base you are about to construct so that the water does not have a 'direct route' upwards, when it tries to come up.

8. Cut a hole at the centre of the wooden platform, just let it be big enough to allow you to insert the 3" Pipe. No bigger, No smaller please.
Important: dont cut the hole at the side, water pressure is greater at the sides and more difficult to manage! Pumping machine hose will also be difficult to handle, from the sides.

9. Lay the PVC Nylon on the wooden platform. Leave enough Nylon at the sides so you can push them into the crevase you chiseled earlier. This is to increase the difficulty of the water in sneaking past the the tank wall and make it even more water-tight.

10. Cut out a 4.5ft length of the 3" pipe.
Important: dont cut longer (difficulty ot handle).
Dont cut shorter (it wont likely hold the water long enough and the water will come back to spoil the job).
4.5ft is just about the best length.

11. Insert this pipe into the hole cut into the wooden platform.
Let it tilt at an angle of about 60-degrees to the floor (or 30-degrees from the vertical).
chuck all the surrounding edges where the pipe meets the wooden platform with more PVC Nylon.
All the excess Nylon will be buried within the Cement, when you are doing the flooring.
Dont let any of them stick out otherwise, that is where the leakage will come from.

12. Put some iron rods on the wooden platform, enough to give the new tank base some/enough strength (a few rods, criss-crossed will do. nothing elaborate)

Now that you have prepared the floor,
13. Insert the pump's hose into the 3" pipe, let it touch the old floor (floor 1) and suck out ALL the water that would have accumulated between the blocks and the wooden platform.
Leave the hose inside the 3" pipe and start the pump once in while, maybe every 15-20mins, depending on how quikly the water rises.

14. Mix adequate amount of Cement with Sand, that can give you a tank base thickness of about 3" - 4".
Add a few granites to it (not too much as to make it too dry or have air pockets/holes! ).
Add adequate cement please so that it can pour in a manner that will fill all hole/air gaps and so it can dry quickly!
Shovel the mixture properly to give you a good mix.

15. Add the rquired amount of HydroSeal (as per instructions on the Container), to 'enough water' in a bucket.
This is the water you will use to mix the Sand-Cement-Granite mixture.
Stir properly and pour into the Cement mixture.
Mix properly and add enough of this Hydroseal/water to the Cement mixture until you have a good slurry that is wet enough to 'pour'. (Dont know how to better explain this but the mixture must not hold shape, when shoveled into a head pan, it must stretch-out like a slurry).

16. Pour this onto the wooden Platform.
Let the Bricklayer work it into the chiselled edges properly and around the 3' Pipe.
Keep pumping out the water from under the platform, through the 3' Pipe.

17. As long as you keep pumping out the water through the 3" pipe, never allowing it to get to the level of the new platform, for at least 18-24 hours, (when the misture should begin to be strong enough to withstand some pressure), you will be okay.

keep pumping for about two days. The water will start rising through the pipe and may even spillover through it, ONTO the new flooring!
You may see some of this water and other water on the new tank base but dont worry about them, that is just the Cement 'spitting out' the water you used in mixing it (my friend nearly has a heart attack when he saw this water the next day, thinking the thing has failed again! )

18. keep mopping and drying-off all the water on the new floor (dont crak it with your weight, if it is not yet strong enough to carry a humanbeing).
Watch it for another day but this time, pump-off the water rising through the 3" pipe and dont allow it to spill over to the floor, just to ensure there is no leak afterall.
The pressure is what is pushing the water up the pipe and if it were not long enough, it will spill onto the new floor before it is adequately dry and not being dry, it wont be strong enough to withstand the pressure (e go leak!)

19. Finally, Suck out all the water underneath the new floor (floor 2) again and immediately use a lot of PVC to block the pipe (pushed down its length till it is under the floor, upwards till it is about the height of the wooden paltform.
Then pour dry cement down the hole and end it with a mixture of Hydroseal mixed with just dry cement only (No sand, No granite). Dont make it too wet (unlike before), just enough to wet the Cement.
Fill it up all the way to the end of the hole, meaning about 2-3ft above floor level.

20. Cut off any excess pipe after this 3ft.
It should dry-up before the water rises to push it off.

Now you have conquered the water.

NB: I have tried to make this as detailed as possible (long story!), so it can benefit anyone who has the same challenge or anyone about to engage in the process, a first time.
Twice my friend has to break and remove a particular Septic tank becaus just wont stop leaking, until we did it this way.

do oyu praise a 'husband' who when armed robbers came calling at 2am, hides his wife in the wardrobe while he opens the door to confron the bandits?

No, you dont! You say he is just doing "what he is supposed (designed) to do!

So, the woman that carries one or six babies in her tummy is only doing what she was designed and created to do ( carry pregnancy!).

while l appreciate the "division of labour" in NATURE, ...........each gender has their work cut out for them.

When your demented old man Buhari prosecutes EVERY Nigerian accused of corruption, please come talk to me. As long as he goes after ONLY his enemies, enjoy corruption with your daddy!

I agree with you that the Corruption fight is currently impacting the opposition mostly (ofcourse, they were the ones in power in the last 16yrs and in position to loot the most) but to EXPECT that the Govt of Buhari can prosecute EVERY CORRUPT Nigerian at the same time, shows how shallow your thinking is!

"When Trees fall on each other, it is the TOPMOST that is removed FIRST" . - Yoruba Proverb

The time to prosecute APC-looters, including Buhari himself, is also not far off but let us remove the "Metuhs, Dasukis, Bafarawa, Mama Piss, ..of this world first.

Printerscanner:
He will get well if the court discharge and acquit him but the judge handing his case will never do that, so that implies that Metuh will be sick through out his prison term.

Since he is sick endlessly, the Govt should 'treat him properly' like a sick person.

- Sick people dont eat much, make sure he eats a very small portion (no meat or fish) of food, ONCE a day.

- Sick people dont socialise; make sure he does not have access to TV or any form of Music, no access to Facebook or WhatsApp or any social media.

- Sick people are usually bedridden; Tie him to his Bed, all day and night (except for five minutes to use the toilet).

Sick people need a quiet environment; make sure he hasno visitors of any sort so they dont disturb him.

If Metuh himself does not say he has recovered fully, within one month, say l nor be Dorkita Magu.

NwaAmaikpe:



I pity those who believe him.

RuthlessLeader:
You people should not be supporting buhari because he made the same mistakes as a military head of state.
This is the coup speech that overthrew his government on August 27 1985:

I, Brigadier Joshua Nimyel Dogonyaro, of the Nigerian Army, hereby make the following declaration on behalf of my colleagues and members of the Nigerian Armed Forces.

Fellow country men, the intervention of the military at the end of 1983 was welcomed by the nation with unprecedented enthusiasm. Nigerians were unified in accepting the intervention and looked forward hopefully to progressive changes for the better. Almost two years later, it has become clear that the fulfillment of expectations is not forthcoming.

Because this generation of Nigerians and indeed future generations have no other country but Nigeria, we could not stay passive and watch a small group of individuals misuse power to the detriment of our national aspirations and interest.

No nation can ever achieve meaningful strides in its development where there is an absence of cohesion in the hierarchy of government; where it has become clear that positive action by the policy makers is hindered because as a body it lacks a unity of purpose.

It is evident that the nation would be endangered with the risk of continuous misdirection. We are presently confronted with that danger. In such a situation, if action can be taken to arrest further damage, it should and must be taken. This is precisely what we have done.

The Nigerian public has been made to believe that the slow pace of action of the Federal Government headed by Major-General Muhammadu Buhari was due to the enormity of the problems left by the last civilian administration.

Although it is true that a lot of problems were left behind by the last civilian government, the real reason, however, for the very slow pace of action is due to lack of unanimity of purpose among the ruling body; subsequently, the business of governance has gradually been subjected to ill-motivated power play considerations. The ruling body, the Supreme Military Council, has, therefore, progressively been made redundant by the actions of a select few members charged with the day-to-day implementation of the SMC’s policies and decision.

The concept of collective leadership has been substituted by stubborn and illadvised unilateral actions, thereby destroying the principles upon which the government came to power. Any effort made to advise the leadership, met with stubborn resistance and was viewed as a challenge to authority or disloyalty.

Thus, the scene was being set for systematic elimination of what, was termed oppositions. All the energies of the rulership were directed at this imaginary opposition rather than to effective leadership.

[b]The result of this misdirected effort is now very evident in the country as a whole. The government has started to drift. The economy does not seem to be getting any better as we witness daily increased inflation.

The nation’s meager resources are once again being wasted on unproductive ventures. Government has distanced itself from the people and the yearnings and aspirations of the people as constantly reflected in the media have been ignored.

This is because a few people have arrogated to themselves the right to make the decisions for the larger part of the ruling body. All these events have shown that the present composition of our country’s leadership cannot, therefore, justify its continued occupation of that position.

Furthermore, the initial objectives and programmes of action which were meant to have been implemented since the ascension to power of the Buhari Administration in January 1984 have been betrayed and discarded. The present state of uncertainty and stagnation cannot be permitted to degenerate into suppression and retrogression.

We feel duty bound to use the resources and means at our disposal to restore hope in the minds of Nigerians and renew aspirations for a better future. We are no prophets of doom for our beloved country, Nigeria. We, therefore, count on everyone’s cooperation and assistance.

I appeal to you, fellow countrymen, particularly my colleagues in arms to refrain from any act that will lead to unnecessary violence and bloodshed among us. Rest assured that our action is in the interest of the nation and the armed forces.[/b]


In order to enable a new order to be introduced, the following bodies are dissolved forthwith pending further announcements: (a) The Supreme Military Council (b) The Federal Executive Council (c) The National Council of States. All seaports and airports are closed, all borders remain closed.


Finally, a dusk to dawn curfew is hereby imposed in Lagos and all state capitals until further notice. All military commanders will ensure effective maintenance of law and order. Further announcements will be made in due course. God bless Nigeria.

..And what did Nigerians get, from Dongoyaro and his band of Coup plotters (like IBB), that wrote the above?

Is it not endless dribbling like Maradona, looting of the treasury, the same self perpetuation, Drug smuggling, decay of the morals of the citizens through "settle me syndrome"?

Infact, it was hte military Junta that wrote the above statements, that destroyed Nigeria the most, especially through their Structural djustment Programme (SAP), which was supposed to be beneficial but same Dongoyaro, IBB and the rest of the looters in the military junta abused it to enrich themselves, while the Citizens even suffered more and many died of heart attack as they watched their life work/saving and effort reduced to NOTHING.

That apart, I agree that this Buhari and his Govt, as presently behaving, is no longer fit for purpose and must be removed urgently, before Herdsmen kill everybody in Nigeria.

Dont tell me a thief like Atiku, is an option. Never!

Let us look for credible younger men (Sowore is the only younger person who has joined the foray, we need more younger people to come out) to lead the Nation, not all these geriatric criminals of Buhari's egenration.

cashlurd:
Bro, my advise to you is to stop praying for negatives. Nothing good comes out from those people. My phone too was passworded. I was ordered to unlock it. If you do not oblige, you may not live to tell the story. And when international calls start coming in, you become a yahoo yahoo boy automatically. Your End becomes almost inevitable. Do not do ITK with the Nigerian police. To be forewarned is to be fore-arned!

You people just use words loosely, in a publci domain.
How is saying l have never been searched, amount to doing ITK?
But that is by the way.

What concernes me is WHY were you stopped in the first place, before they asked you to unlock your phone?
Where you engaged in a 'suspicious activity' ab initio, that warranted the attention on you or did they just pick on you randomly?

SUPOL:
D provisions of the police act and regulations empowers any police officer to stop and search anyone he suspects of any criminal activity. This includes his or her personal belongings.

So, how do you arrive at that "suspicion of criminal activity"?
By dresscode?
By hairstyle?
Because that person is carrying Backpack?
Because the person is 'male and young'?
Because they have Tattoo or use ear-rings?
Because they are carrying a Laptop?

FYI, all the above can be found in very decent and honest people who have nothing to do with crime.
That means your "suspicion is SUBJECTIVE" and therefore unreasonable.

'Criminal activity' by itself are clearly defined in law, as unlawful acts or acts proscribed by law.
That means it is not a question of "suspicion", it is either that person is engaged in a criminal activity (which you must observe and identify clearly), or they are not doing anything criminal.

There must be a prema-facie case established, before you can suspect someoen of criminal activity.
For example, if someone is carrying an "unwrapped knife" in public, you can suspect of criminal activity because "it is not expected that they would carry such in public, without wrapping it up (showing that it is not ready for use, say incase of where it is just purchased).
That is the prema facie" that you require (a very definite and clear act) to then proceed to "Stop and search" the person.

But to just, out of some whim or hunch (which is usually driven by the need to harass extort them), ask somebody to stop for a search, especially the search of 'a very private property' like their phone, is just stupid and criminal on the part of any police man.

In saner climes, the Police usually work or do such things, based on 'advance intelligence'.
Our Policemen need to use more of their brain, use more of technology, intelligence gathering, analytics and similar modern tools of crime fighting to solve problem rather than be resorting to brutish and savage methods that portrays even them, as 'criminals in official uniform'.


BTW: Quote the section of the Police Act you are reffering to, for double verification and to 'dissect the context' of such powers, since laws are not made in isolation
