chuxyz: Living in typical igbo town such as Aba or Onitsha is quite fun with the kind of hilarious quotes that you hear on daily basis. These are the ones i can remember for now:

1. Hapu ihe e dere na moto banye moto (Leave what is written on a motor and enter motor)
Meaning: Taking action is a priority over having details or previous knowledge

2. Kee ncha bu omo? (Which soap is omo?)
Meaning: How far? or What's up?

3. Onye m ga-egbuli m ga rio chineke ka o nyere m aka? (One i can defeat do i still need to beg God for help?)
Meaning: Self explanatary

4. Gaa washington ka ha washia nti gi (Go to washington so your ear can be washed)
Meaning: Told to a deaf ear

5. Agbacha oso a gwuo mile (After the race, the miles or distance covered is calculated)
Meaning: Being reflective after a difficult task

6. Ogaracha must come back (He who wanders away must come back)
Meaning: You can not totally shy away from your responsiblities

Do we have Aba or Onitcha or other Igbo boys boys here? Please let's keep it rolling...

You are entitled to your silly and shallow interpretation regarding what's stale and not stale, but the impeachment money given out 2 months ago and the actual impeachment today remains crucial and very relevant. The impeachment money given out 2 months ago is responsible for what's going on today.

You said "Adamawa Assembly Members Currently At Loggerheads Over 250 Million Naira Bribe , but the title is still IMPEACHMENT: N250million Mobilization Fee Tears Adamawa Assembly Apart

So, the word current you inserted into your vomit came from where? From your inability to read and comprehend elementary English?

Politics › Edo Assembly Crisis: APC Lawmakers Accuse Police Of Bias by Decibel(op): 6:50am On Jul 08, 2014
BY SIMON EBEGBULEM

BENIN—The 15 All Progressives Congress, APC, lawmakers in Edo State, yesterday, held a parallel plenary at the old House of Assembly complex, Government House Benin City and accused the Police in the state of bias.

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, nine lawmakers had earlier held theirs at the Anthony Enahoro Assembly Complex, in front of the entrance to the chambers.

However, the 15 APC lawmakers led by the Speaker, Mr Uyi Igbe and other administrative staff of the Assembly, including the Clerk of the House, Sergeant at Arms and others, held plenary at the former Assembly quarters in Government House, where they had relocated last week due to the on-going renovation work at the Ring Road Assembly complex.

At the sitting, they called on President Goodluck Jonathan to direct the Inspector General of Police, IG, Mr. Muhammed Abubakar, to call the police in the state to order, alleging that they were being used by some politicians.

Moving a motion under matters of urgent public importance, the member representing Akoko-Edo constituency I, Kabiru Adjoto, said the police have abdicated their responsibility of protecting the public and constituted themselves into “protégé of the PDP with their supervision of the destruction of government property.”

The motion was seconded by Mr Sunday Aghedo, representing Ovia South-West constituency. The Speaker directed that copies of the resolution be sent to the President, IG, Assistant Inspector General of Police, AIG, Zone 5, Commissioner of Police, ECOWAS and United Nations Security Councils Secretariats in Abuja for action

Politics › IMPEACHMENT:Nyako on the Brink by Decibel(op): 6:37am On Jul 08, 2014
Nyako: On the brink

on July 08, 2014 / in Politics 2:35 am

By Emmanuel Aziken, Political Editor and Umar Yusuf
Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State is fighting for his political life as his determined political opponents move to shove him out of office

The impeachment drama playing out in Adamawa State took another turn yesterday after the embattled governor of the state, Murtala Nyako declared a two day public holiday purportedly to enable the citizenry to pray over the issues that have recently bestirred the state.

The declaration of the two day public holiday was, however, largely seen as a masterstroke on the part of the governor to cripple the move against him given that the Chief Judge of the state who belatedly constituted the impeachment panel was due to retire today. By declaring the public holiday it was expected that the inauguration of the impeachment panel would be delayed.
Governor Murtala Nyako

Governor Murtala Nyako

However, the panel waved away the machination as it commenced sitting yesterday in a private hotel, J & J Holiday Villa in Yola.

The decision of the panel to proceed with its duties it was learnt had demoralized the governor and fueled suggestions that the governor was considering resigning from office.

Remarkably those who have positioned themselves for the governor’s jugular have remained undaunted despite the seeming conciliatory gestures of Nyako. Nyako was first elected as governor in 2007 and reelected for a second term in 2011. He, however, decamped from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP the party on whose platform he won his two elections folloing strong disagreements with the mainstream of the party led by the immediate past national chairman of the party, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur.

Nyako had in the past proved to be pugnacious against the president and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and even against former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar who had in the past come out to save him in difficult times.



The 20 point allegations against Nyako

1. Fraudulent diversion of N2.3 Billion Adamawa state worker’s salaries for September and October 2011.

2. Illegal deductions and diversion of the sum of N142 million employment of Adamawa state workers in May 2014.

3. Diversion of N120 million public funds to sponsor fictitious visits of General Muhammadu Buhari to Adamawa sate to commiserate with flood victims of insurgents attacks in Madagali and Michika local government areas.

4. Extra-budgetary expenditure of N1, 740, 785 on fictitious special assistants and another N166, 230, 536.88 on personal assistants in 2013.

5. Fraudulent award of contract of over N8 Billion through SNECOU Group of Companies Ltd allegedly to siphon public funds without delivering any service to the people of Adamawa state.

6. Corrupt siphoning of the sum of N300 million public funds through a company, Hydrosources Resources Ltd in the name of Mubi By-pass without mobilising to site or any construction carried out long after collecting the N300 million from Adamawa state funds.

7. Gross violation of the oath of office by outrageous patronage and dominance of family and friends in the discharge of government such as MGDs office, the SPPU and ministry of Health.

8. Gross violation of section 120 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended and gross misappropriation and diversion of internally Generated Revenue for personal use to the detriment of the people.

9. Squandering the sum of N4, 805, 216, 538 and N7, 114, 590.85 in 2012 and 2013 respectively through the office of the SSG against budgetary approvals.

10. Expenditures of exorbitant sum of N2.5 billion as other miscellaneous expenses through the internal affairs and special services units.

11. Extra budgetary procurement of fertiliser and diversion of proceeds from the sales of same from 2007 to date.

12. The MDGs office is managed by the governor’s close relations and has squandered N220 million and N786, 644.94 unbudgeted funds in 2013 for the implementation of MDGs programme.

13. Diversion of over N400 million out of the N500 million federal government intervention funds for flood victims in 2011.

14. Diversion of government funds through illegal importation of hospital equipment to the tune of N156 million while the state still owes the contractor and illegal acquisition of containerized mobile workshop for vocational training centers.

15. Corruption and extra budgetary award of contracts for the construction of Army Barracks road, Mayo Belwa Road; Pella to Maiha Road; Gombi to Ga’anda to Fotta Road; Rumde to Yolde Pate Road; construction of mubi bypass, contrary to section 120 (2), (3) and (4) of the construction of the Federal Republic of Nigerian 1999.

16. Squandering of N1 billion Adamawa German Hospital, managed by close a relation to the Governor.

17. Shoddy conception and operation of Adamawa German Hospital, managed by close relation to the Governor.

18. Abuse of office and violation of Adamawa state law by the appointment of his wife, Dr. Halima Nyako as chairman, Adamawa state action committee on Aids, (SACA) contrary to SACA law.

19. Over bearing strangulation of the local government areas and extortion of local government funds in the name of joint account projects and security challenges in mubi and other parts of the state.

20. Alleged of corrupt practices.

Politics › IMPEACHMENT: N250million Mobilization Fee Tears Adamawa Assembly Apart by Decibel(op): 5:36pm On Jul 07, 2014
Trouble is said to be brewing in
Adamawa State House of Assembly
over the alleged disbursement of
N250 million to facilitate the
impeachment of Governor Murtala
Nyako. The money, it was alleged, was to be
shared to the 25 members to ginger
them to impeach the governor, who,
recently, accused President Goodluck
Jonathan of committing genocide
against the North in the name of fighting terrorism. Each member of the House was to
receive N10 million of the money said
to have been given to a member of
the Adamawa House of Assembly by a
popular governor in the country. The officer, who collected the money,
allegedly shortchanged the
lawmakers by paying them N8 million
each and pocketing the balance.
Besides, the plot to oust Nyako was
said to have suffered a setback when four of the members rejected the
largesse, insisting that they could not
work against the governor, who
brought them into limelight. Apart
from the four members, who rejected
the alleged bribe, six others, who allegedly collected, have reportedly
sworn not to jump on the bandwagon
to remove Nyako, leaving the
impeachment protagonists in a
dilemma. Sunday Vanguard gathered that the
rejection of the money by the four and
refusal of the six others to be part of
the plot to remove Nyako is causing
unease in the PDP in Adamawa State.
A source told Sunday Vanguard that to be able to remove Nyako, the
lawmakers needed 17 members to
make up the two thirds majority
required by law. The move to oust the governor
intensified last week when the
Speaker of the House threatened to
declare vacant the seat of any
member, who refuses to join the PDP.
Under the circumstance, four members who were in the opposition APC
immediately switched their
membership to the PDP, making the
entire membership of the house to
belong to the party. It will be recalled that before Nyako
defected to the APC last December, his
former party, the PDP, had 21
members with the former ACN, having
three and the defunct CPC, with one
member. It was learnt that six candidates, including the deputy
governor of the state, Bala James
Ngillari, had already positioned
themselves as potential successors to
Nyako.http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/05/gov-nyakos-impeachment-move-n250m-donation-splits-adamawa-house-assembly/

Thanks cool

then will tell you what to do next.cool
Technology Market › Re: . by Decibel:
You need a a 4-port Switch and and a-8/16port hub. The hub is a repeater means it has only one collision domain while every port on a switch has its own collision domain .i.e the computers on the network can send and receive packets at the same time without an interference from other systems smiley. but with HUB,it means that when there are many users on the network with respect to time there will always be JAMS angry. But with the help of a switch you will be able to break the network into smaller units there by reducing the jams on the network. wink
Now you need to network the entire system so that they will be able to communicate with one another in the network.
To do this you need the following:
1. a switch/hub.
2. a workstation with high system configuration(at least 2Gb Ram, 60-320Gb HDD, 2.3-3.0GHz processor)
3. RJ45 network cable.
4. usb Modem for the internet connection.
5. RJ45 cutter.
BTW this is purely Networking and the process is not what can be fully detailed here. wink
Where do you stay?
cheers!!!
