richiemcgold: Good one from the SA. I hope a Nigerian one day will invent drones with night visions that can surveil our forests from the space. This will help to discover and attack armed herdsmen, terrorists and kidnappers without deploying soldiers.
Eve n if we can't invent them we can at least purchase them for our immediate benefits,I remember a Nigerian robotic engineer trained in the US who had a company in ibadan offered to provide the kind of services you mentioned but politics n hidden agenda didn't allow the government to even give the man a trial,our problems can be solved it's just the absence of truth n sincerity.
The drop is simply because of the ceasation of smuggling n unaffordability by Nigerians, it's not any miraculous economic achievement that calls for celebrations,we should ordinarily be ashamed of our ourselves,but because our leaders are shameless they can make these kind if statements n feel proud.
achorladey: When I read a post where a person keeps asking questions like this using ifs ifs ifs, what I am familiar with especially here on nairaland is that they themselves cannot answer the question and have enough backing to do so because those questions are based on assumptions and speculations
I asked very direct n clear questions,answer them don't Dodge with flimsy excuses.
Right from the on set, Atikus prayers were that Tinubu was not qualified to run for the elections,he was not duely declared winner amongst others, it's up to the judges to decide,Atiku is simply pursing all the possible options,I don't see anything clownish in his arguments.
Mynd44: I said this earlier and someone was arguing with me. If you cannot call the desponent to testify in court, it is mere hearsay as it is assumed that the respondent didn't have a chance to ask questions thereby not defended his/herself. The deposition itself is merely a waste of time if it was not in open court.
As for this forgery being a criminal offence have to be proved beyond any doubt else you are just playing around
No I don't agree with you,was the respondent no represented by his lawyers during the deposition?, besides is deposition not legal?,but can a third party vendor reproduce a certificate without any clearance or confirmation from the primary source?,if the primary source gives such clearance or confirmation why would they refused to authenticate what the third party vendor reproduce then?,look I can understand if the supreme Court chooses to refuse admitting the new evidence based on consitutional provision n lack of precedence n there by leaving everything to the NASS if the FBI files eventually turns out odious, but you all know that there is something dubious about Tinubu's certificate,in fact the two conflicting letters from CSU is a clear pointer to it.
There are some funny things i noticed in this record of proceedings,how come only the Igbo judges asked all the questions?, does it mean all the other judges had no questions to ask or their minds are already made up?, secondly,if justice okoro said,there were two conflicting letters from CSU on the authenticity of Tinubu's certificate,who submitted the letters?,n doesn't that in itself show that something is definitely not right with Tinubu's certificate and there's the need for the supreme Court to examine the issue very critically? like Atikus lawyer said,is the deposition under path not supposed to be Superior to the conflicting letters?, the way i see the whole of this is that,the supreme Court, wants to pass their judgement n there by shifting the responsibility to the NASS should the FBI files returns a damning results against Tinubu,to claim that their hands were tied but deep down within them they all know there's something very dubious about Tinubu's certificate.
In a rather unconventional move, a yet-to-be-identified man in Ụmụdiala village, Ezinifite, Nnewi South Local Government Area of Anambra State, has taken a unique approach to construction by using bamboos in place of irons, to cast the decks and pillars for his two-storey building. The builder has gone against the conventional style, shunning traditional materials such as iron, in favour of bamboo in the ongoing construction.
A concerned resident of the area, Chief CKC Obiekwe, drew the attention of this reporter to the bizarre construction through a video currently trending on the social media — a testament that the first-of-its-kind bamboo-based construction in the area has gone viral online.
The video shows that while bamboos had been used in place of irons to cast pillars and lintels of the ground floor of the two-storey building, some portions of the first deck have also been cast with bamboos in place of irons, while the remaining portions of the deck and pillars for the second deck are also already constructed with bamboos, waiting to be cast with concrete.
Commentator on the viral video also revealed that this was not the first time the builder had employed such a method in the construction of his house. He is said to have previously constructed similar bamboo-reinforced buildings in Abuja and Lagos before bringing it down to his hometown.
Although sources described the builder as a wealthy man, this reporter, Izunna Okafor, could not reach him to confirm the prime motivation and reason behind the bamboo-centric construction. Some locals, however, quoted him as saying that using irons to construct house is not only expensive, but also a waste of money, given the present-day economic realities in Nigeria.
Howbeit, while some applaud the man's ingenuity and thriftiness, others express concerns about the long-term structural integrity of a bamboo-reinforced building, describing it as a death trap and a very risky adventure.
Reacting another resident of the area who pleaded anonymity said, “With this unconventional approach to construction now in the spotlight, it calls for attention from the relevant agencies to ensure that the buildings comply with the standard building codes.
“This oversight is critical to avoid any occurrence of building collapse, which could lead to another unnecessary waste of innocent lives, because the builder himself may not even be there when the building will collapse.
“The safety and structural integrity of such construction methods should be a top priority for all stakeholders in the building industry, especially given the high rate building collapse in the society today.”

Last year, Mercy Aigbe shared an emotional moment between her and her daughter, Michelle as they reunited.
The movie star was on vacation in Canada where her daughter was schooling and had linked up with her and Michelle couldn’t fight back her tears, as she held tightly to her mother.
This special contabulary or whatever called is nonsense,the police are just getting it wrong,you train people who are not going to be paid, eventually this people would be working closely with the police getting access to some vital information, with the poor working conditions what would stop them from serving as criminal agents?, it's now looking as if the more criminal acts you commits the easier the government recognizes you, militants in niger Delta has now been rewarded with pipeline security contracts, repentant Boko Haram now populate the army,now repentant criminals are special constabularies!,we are playing with fire oh!
xin5: As a 47yr old I still patronise prostitutes which I don't see a problem with. I have No kid, no serious relationship. The problem is my mother complaining here and there for me to get married if I don't see my age. My mother has complained to the extend she's embarrassed on my behalf even when I am well established. I know I can't help myself, it's just an addiction I can't stop. I find it so hard to chyke a girl, talk more calling every now and then.. having meaniless discussions and drama all the time.. pestering for sex something I can achieve with just a phone chat with my connect and they will send pictures of multiple variables I can pick from..30k shortime.
The longest relationship have ever had was in 2008 I think 7months. Ever since I was young I focused on pay as you go and this has been eating my finances on a steady which I normally don't see as anything because I am doing quite well for myself. But the pressure to have kids it's getting on me so bad that I wish I can just get a prostitute and impregnate her so that my mother can rest.
Truly the problem with dating is that the ladies just use it to exploit the guys, continuously making endless greedy demands with no reasonable contribution in return,most guys that can't stand it simply drift towards prostitutes or hook ups n unfortunately get addicted,but frankly if na so Toto cost me I go just embark of konji fasting,after all I Neva hear of disease wey celibacy don cause,haba 25,30k just like dat?,no wonder some people de go take drugs to count their money for the Toto.
Pakute: Payment is not the end of procurement process, have they been given lincense or ownership?. Your papa suppose pay me for the education i dey give you today.
Guy na wa for your kind of argument oh, something that is clear you are still twisting it,the refinery was sold in bad shape and the buyers need to think of getting back in shape before pursing license,but your own be say as Dem never get license Dem no buy,ok why yar'adua refund money?, even Atiku have been saying the same thing long ago but e just be like say if no be APC suggest something, propaganda no go allow any other idea work.
Easyincome24: It's good one plans his/her life early enough to avoid story that touches.
Some of our parents never believed that the country will become what it is today.
My father told me how cheap lands were in the country when he was in his 20's. He regretted not investing enough due to shouldering many responsibilities especially bringing his siblings and extended families to the city. He nurtured them till they became of age. When he realized what's up, time has exceeded him as we the children have needs too.
Now, I'm asking the following question: between owning a car or house, which would you advice someone in his 20's to acquire first?
Both can yield returns as long as they can be used in the proper way for investment.
Can we have more people comment on this to help many who are still in their 20's and able to fund any of the assets?
Note: Some young folks are doing legit work earning in $$$. I have some techy guys in their 20's as software developers, Blockchain DAOs, Freelancers, Content creators, YouTube influencers, Social Media Marketers, 3D animators, AI engineer, Bitcoin minning. They evolve around tech working remotely. So, not all of these guys in their 20's are yahoo yahoo, at least these ones I can guarantee.
We engaged in a discussion where they raised the above question about which is best between owning a car or house at their ages.
If you have a guaranteed source of income try to own a house,but if not get the car strictly to double the hustle.
marvellous2222: My wife calls her family for everything, once I'm broke she calls her mother to send her food items, I have begged her to stop, I have gotten angry yet she said she can't be hungry in a man's house when there's excess in her parents house, my wife can't manage 3k to cook for me, a family with just 2 kids, she'll call her elder brothers and tell them I gave her 3k to cook immediately they will send money for her.
Can't a woman water down her taste to keep her marriage? They don't insult me but I feel not man enough, I feel less of myself, my wife is from a rich home and the house we are living is a wedding gift from her brothers, she's an only daughter and they over pamper her, they don't allow her ask twice.
I remember I bought a car for her when she delivered our first child my brother in-law knew about it before the car arrived cause I ordered through his company, he changed the car to something twice the one I could afford without my knowledge, when they brought a car to the house I said this isn't what I ordered my brother in-law said their Ada can't be seen driving such after marriage.
They are planning to open a business for her and they didn't involve me in the plan, my marriage is not what I wanted cause I feel like I'm not man enough.
My wife doesn't appreciate gifts from me like when it's from her family, I got her a 75k watch she said thank you and for months she didn't use it, I had to remind her that there's a watch I gave her, but when one of her brother sent her a watch worth 260k she danced and used it always.
How do I handle this?
hat did you expect going into the marriage from the onset?
BluntCrazeMan: IREV IS MAINLY FOR PUBLIC DISPLAY PURPOSES,, AND THEN ALSO, FOR VERIFICATION PURPOSES..
public display of results INEC can choose to upload anytime they wish, it's pure nonsense n INEC knows it too well,the parties are not serious if not,the best option is to go to court n get a ruling to make it mandatory for signed results to be pasted at every polling unit before been taken to collation centres,so the results can be videos or snapped by anyone,that may not completely stopped rigging but at least it would checkmate the abracadabra that usually happens before the results get to collation centres.
To be very frank,, INEC is not educating the populace enough with regards to how the election technologies work.. INEC really need to loud all these things very very well. And they should let Nigerians to understand that the IREV is just for Verification Purposes. And not for Collation Purposes..
But is this not an itony?, the final results should be the sum of the results from the polling units as recorded by the electoral officials,so basically the results should tally with the total of the uploaded results sheets whether the IREV is a collation tool or not,where there's cancellation INEC would just state it,this explanations appears to mean that even if the results are uploaded to the IREV INEC can announce whatever they like n the IREV can not be use as evidence!, this is exactly how they manipulated the presidential election n now the ruling of the PEPT has emboldened them to confidentiality say this rubbish to Nigerians,so what exactly is the point of the IREV n BVAS then?
AImiron: some of y’all penadogs are illiterates, he won the World Cup via Penalty Shootout, which doesn’t add to players goal tally, we are talking about the number of penalties scored during football normal time here, try to read and interpret wella. It’s not too hard to comprehend. Freekick wey hard to score, Messi is miles ahead of the fraud.
Of the 7 goals Messi scored in the world cup how many were not penalties?
AImiron: That’s why we call him Penado and his fans Penadogs. He will be remembered as the player who scored the most penalties in the history of the game and a ghost when his team faces a tough opponents 😂😂
Most of his goals were against weaker teams both country and club. Imagine e go jump reach sky after scoring against Al Kabiru FC, a team full of non professional players, team wey be say if Barcelona La Masia academy boys catch em dem flog em blue n black. Mediocrity. I wonder why e no see goals score against Morocco
Make una hail the scam lord of the desert 😂😂😂
I know this post was created to cast aspersions on christiano but if I were Messi the heading would be something like,"Messi broke record of penalty conversion" just to paint him in good light,Messi scored 4 penalties out of the 7 goals he scored in the world cup but was hailed,Messi is occultic,he plays with amulet tied to his leg like he did in Russia 2018,the occultic powers behind him influences the double standard in his favour.
Ronaldo joined Juve in 2018 and left in 2021 to Manu U. Inter won 2020/2021 season, which was Cr7's last season and Ronaldo was fully there to ensure Juve was dethroned
So must Ronaldo's club win the league every season,does Messi do same?,ok since juv were winning without Ronaldo,what stop them now that hey gone?
kenex4ever: Obviously, you are baby football fan. Before penaldo got there, they were the best team in Italy for many years. Your guy went there and made sure he dethroned them b4 they chased him away to avoid further damage. Since then Juve are yet to recover from the confusion and disorganization he caused because of selfishness and quest for goals just to be in GOAT debate.
Guy I knew when juv were the equivalent of Munich or psg in taly up to when they were even demoted for dubious conduct, inter took over before Ronaldo join them,their primary aim of going for Ronaldo was the UCL but as they couldn't win,they turn Ronaldo to a scape goat,now since Ronaldo Left how has they fared?you people called the French league Farmers league but when Messi went there you hailed him for providing assists,he thought everyone will slave for him but met a match in mbappe,now Messi is in USA but you people are still hailing him while condemning Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia out of sheer hate.
kenex4ever: So you are taking what Boateng assumed Messi thought to the bank. Messi asked him how serie A was just to why he couldnt score in Laliga and he assumed Messi was thinking about Cr7, lol.
Back to Cr7, he was banging goals at the expense of the team because he ensured all the goals came from him, that was why he suppervised the colapse of almighty Juve of the era. His ensured everybody where playing to serve him because if u dont he will keep malies with you and probably influence your termination of contract. The same thing he tried at Man U, and they niped him at the bud.
Kai haba! You can lie!,what did juv achieved before Ronaldo came n what have they achieve since he left since he was the problem?,guy just give Ronaldo his due credit,look at how his influence has transformed the Saudis league!
