During protest;

Who buys drinking water?

Which money is use to encrypt words on the placard?

How legitimate is their conscience over the cause?

Who takes care of each members fare?



I need to know all these, it might help me to establish my own 'protest firm', for who ever wishes to protest in Nigeria.

Christianity EtcRe: Is It A Sin For Someone To Go To His Or Her Place Of Work On Sundays? by daftpikin: 9:47pm On Jul 03, 2016
SAINTSAMURAII:
AS you all know, the lord said that we should keep the sabbath day holy and we should gather together on the sabbath as christians to praise the lord. now there are various jobs that requires that people to be on duty on sundays, now knowing fully well that the job its your source of income and if you fail to be on duty on sunday, you might be sack or giving a query, now is it a sin to forsake the sabbath and go to your work place?
If you have studied scriptures and allowed the Holy Ghost to reveal the interpretations to you, you would know that most of the things in the old testament are shadows of the things in the new. When the old testament laws were given it was to signify something else in the new testament.
For us in the new testament, the Sabbath is not just a day. I would not want to go further as I'm finding a stop in my spirit.

Lemme just answer your question directly, as a Christian you can work on Sundays from time to time as long as you have your time to fellowship with the brethren at other times.

Apostle had something to say about this in Colossians 2vs 16 . You can read through the entire chapter to get what he was saying clearly.

Shalom

EFCC seals home of Apere Embelakpo, SSA on MDGs to Governor Henry Seriake Dickson and also seals the below gigantic twin shopping complexes and offices situated at opposite Kpansia market, Yenagoa, Bayelsa state, owned by the same man who is wanted by the EFCC for embezzling over 1bn MDGs fund

If you can recall, some weeks ago a top ex-aid of Seriake Dickson, Evarada was arrested by the EFCC , trying to bribe the agency with 10m cash in Portharcourt to bury the corruption case against the SSA

BusinessRe: Will Nigerian Banks Ever Start Issuing Credit Cards? by daftpikin: 10:33am On May 13, 2016
SmartMugu:
I think there might be some problems with that approach. What would happen in the case of a billionaires that want their children to own everything they had after they're gone? What if they expect to leave infants behind? I know a 2-year old don't need a bank account, hence has no need for BVN.
So, if banks rely on only those with BVN, several others would be segregated, no matter how much they're actually worth from inheritances, investments etc.

Sane countries assign a different kind of identifiers to their citizens that don't depend on them having a bank account.
In the US for example, the SSN is enforced from birth for those born there. Attending schools, getting medical help etc rely on the fact that people's past, present and their future can be tracked from their SSN, not because they managed to open a bank account and suddenly got assigned a BVN.

As celebrated as the US is, a huge fraction of its population still doesn't have a bank account. Many even believe the banking system is fraud in its own.
Well said, but I feel a minor has no need for a credit card. So even if he has billions in investments or inheritance he still would not get a credit card.

On the issue of Social Security, we have not gotten there yet and I do not think we will even in the next 5 years but that should not stop the banks from starting with the BVN. If you don't have a bank account then you don't get a credit card, cause knowing Nigerians they would try various means of defrauding the financial organizations if there's nothing to check them.
BusinessRe: Will Nigerian Banks Ever Start Issuing Credit Cards? by daftpikin: 8:02am On May 13, 2016
InvertedHammer:
Think about the mindset of a Nigerian.
Mr. A works for XYZ. He has a credit limit of N500,000. And in this era of uncertainty, Mr. A is fired on Friday. He walks into his bank and maxed out on his cash back. Worst case scenario, he will have a bad credit. No jail time, no asset s foreclosure because credit cards debts are unsecured loans.
Repeat this similar scenario a thousand times. Will collection agencies work in Nigeria? Will the banks hire Samoans with baseball bats to collect on deliquent accounts?
The best a bank can do is give credit backed by the amount in the individual's account. Then it defeats the whole concept of credit facility.
SmartMugu:
With the current state Nigeria is in, credit opportunities will not work in that system - except may be for a select few, but yet it won't be same as in sane countries.

The reason is simple. The US for example has a unique identifier for everybody living there legally - Social Security Number (SSN). Nigeria doesnt. With the SSN, everything else can be linked - your properties, debts, equities, family members, criminal history, insurance records, census reasons etc.

Every business in the US (an example) can decide if you are credit-worthy once they look through your past records from your SSN. Banks, financial firms, employers, etc and rely on that to make informed decisions.

If it took forever for Nigeria to think about BVN, how much longer would it take to implement something close to SSN that the US uses? Unless BVN will be used to represent SSN. But what about people that don't have bank accounts and don't need BVN?

The right approach would be to have a unique number assigned to every citizen in Nigeria, even babies. From that, everything else can be done. I thought that was the whole reason for the National ID card, until...

So, I won't blame banks if they don't think Nigeria is ripe for that yet. Like everyone, they don't want to lose money from people fleeing with funds they borrowed. The right system has to be put in place to establish a confidence level for them.
The BVN for me is very ineffective right now, but would be very useful if the Crédit card is adopted by all banks. On the issue of running away, since all our accounts are linked to the BVN all our credit cards would also be linked to our BVN and any bank should be able to use it in accessing credit card debts to ascertain whether to or whether not to issue another credit card to a customer.

When you complain in this country , Nigeria.. Whats the end benefit of it..
Everybody has been complaining since 1960, nigeria got her independence till 2016, as of nw...
Tell me, has the system changed for better?
Are schools adequately equiped with books ,practical materials and necessary amenities to ease the life of a student?
Has it improved to the enviable state we want it to be? Coupled With all the complains, screams, fights and strike actions?

If your answer is Yes? And you can prove to me complaining and carrying of placards has changed the system to a better one? Then my dear friend, i will gladly shut down my company and mobilize my staffs to join Unilag students and other students in the campaigne of change and better living.

But if No?
Then keep wasting time complaining, till eternity... Its your choice...
that is because the protesters always bow out at the slightest form of threatening from authorities and if we do the same thing our demonstration would be added to the list of failed protests.

My brother history is a great teacher. History has always shown that in tertiary education in Nigeria, protests especially violent one, usually cause more woes and regret to the students in the end. There is never a limit to the amount of dialogue you can have otherwise you will burn your fingers. How many of us get everything we need from our parents at home? And the few who actually do are seen as over pampered. Do you go about throwing tantrums at your parents whenever they dnt provide you with what you need? My two pence o and nobody have to agree with me.
At least our parents respect us enough to explain things to us. You talk about history, just look at how the school system is right now, worse that it was before because those who had their chances in 'history' were to scared to do anything and didn't care about the future as long as they graduated.
