all boils down to lack of accurate government data base. even advanced countries deal with all this issues of trust, sincerity, class divide, banks and local mentality. when we fix our biodata systems, all other things including phone contracts will be taken care of. BVN AND NIM CODES are parts of the baby steps needed to get there.

Is the mtn night plan unlimited? if no what is the data cap?
500mb
Phones › Re: Which Network Offers Best Night Plan? by dgitrader(m):
Mtn and airtel are best. But Airtel beats mtn hands down for 2 reasons
1. Airtel till 5am, 2. while mtn ends 4am(3.30am unofficially starts to truttle)

Edit. : airtel is the best for now. It offers 25naira for 500mb.
etisalat is second best, it offers 1gb for 200naira(same as airtel)

Dear BamBam,
I know you'd see this.
How are you faring and how's life outside the house?
Just know that whenever I set eyes on you, I'd take you to the nearest toilet and let you do to me what you did to Teddy.

One of the reason I like you is that unlike regular prosttittues, you don't charge a dime. So I know it's because you are a spirit-filled church girl who knows that acts of love shouldn't have a price-tag.

They'd be no cameras there so I'm sure you'd be free to be freaky with me.

Till we meet.
You're Sincerely;
NwaAmaikpe.

Politics › Corruption In Nigeria! A Must Read by dgitrader(op): 2:23pm On Sep 06, 2017
copied from whatsapp


FANTASTICALLY CORRUPT.

I traveled out my state of residence to do a transaction on behalf of a client. Things went relatively well until I needed to take out an affidavit in court as one of the final stages of the transaction.

So I walked into this court, a federal high court, to do the affidavit. I had in mind that a day earlier , someone had told me in my office how she spent #4 000 to do an affidavit in court. I was furious . I know that only #100 of that #4 000 will go to government purse , the rest will go to some thieves who pose as government workers.

So I stepped into this court wishing that the thieves would try to play pranks on me. I file affidavit regularly in court but I have never experienced such extortion. May be it is because the court workers in my town of residence know me to be a lawyer. May be now that I am out of jurisdiction and dressed casually, the ones here will try to play a fast one on me. Just May be.

So In the court, I was directed to a certain lady. It Seems she is always the first contact person in this web of extortion. I entered the room. She asked me to sit. She was attending to someone, a captive I should say . The man was begging that he did not come with 4k, but the lady would have none of that. She asked the guy to go and come back complete. I was eavesdropping. The guy had just lost his certificate and wanted to make an affidavit to that effect. This is what is supposed to cost him N100. The guy even begged to pay N1000. But she refused. She insisted on the "full price".. In the end, the guy left to use Atm and come back. I was next in line!

I hold the belief that even if one should extort me, it should not be in court. The very thought of being extorted by a non- Lawyer in court is annoying to me. It is like a civilian slapping a Soldier in the barracks! If you must slap a soldier, must you do it in the barracks ?

So I took my turn in front of her. 'What do you want to do, sir? She asked.' Affidavit, of course, I replied. She asked what type of affidavit , bringing out a plain sheet of paper and pen, with an air of fake seriousness. She said she needed to know the type of affidavit because they will help me to type it.

At that point, I brought out a copy of the affidavit as typed by my secretary a day before I traveled. I told her that all I needed was to make the oath before a Commissioner for that purpose. Seems she was taken aback. Seems see didn't expect me to come with my affidavit already written and typed out. She excused me and left with the document. I guess she went to consult with her superiors.

She did not stay too long.

'sir, are you a Barrister'?
'Yes, does it matter'?
'I mean a real Barrister '?
Silence.
' sir are you based here in town '?
Silence.
' Sir'?

I think she wondered if I was really a lawyer as they have not seen me in their court before . May be her superior had suggested that I just claimed to be a lawyer in the affidavit just to evade their extortion.

I told her to go straight to the point. That I still needed to travel back. I told her to show me where to pay and get the oath Commissioner's stamp. At that point, she cut a piece of paper and wrote on it. She signed a complicated signature. She made the stealing to seem official. Unlike how she handled the guy before me, she didn't say a word about the amount I was to pay. She could not speak to me about it . She wrote it down and signed and then showed me where to take it to.

So I took it to whom I was directed. The man took the piece of paper from me and studied it as if it was a graph or some complicated map . Then,as if he had suddenly deciphered a hidden code, he said out loud : 'two thousand'. I paid the two thousand Naira and waited. The man stamped on the document and wrote on it with red ink. I noticed that he did not write the amount received by the Court on behalf of government, as is the custom. He directed me back to the lady who sent me to him . He said she is the one to take me to the Commissioner for oaths .

I was irritated by the unnecessary back and forth, but I was determined to see the end of it .

After the Commissioner had put his stamp on the affidavit, I went straight back to the guy who took 2k from me and demanded a receipt. He looked lost when he saw me again.

He said they don't give receipts. I said its not possible for the federal government of Nigeria to take #2000 from me and not give any evidence of payment. He then said their receipt has finished. I told him to use his red pen and write 2000 on the affidavit. He Shrunk his shoulders, as if to say 'God forbid'.

I told him, Point blank, that he has trouble on his hands. That he should not think that I will leave without evidence of payment. That if he can not handle it he should bring in his superior. I threatened to go to the court Registrar if he continues to waste my time. It Seems the mention of the Registrar was frightening to him. He said to me 'please sit down' and stepped out, running.

He returned with a woman I presume is his unit head, a woman in her late forties by my estimation. She asked what was the problem. I told her there was no problem. That I am surprised the guy brought her. That all I want is receipt or some evidence of payment.

She said that their receipt has finished. She brought out a big book and said they enter all the payment entries made by everyone and at the end of the day, they issue one receipt!

Hear lie. One receipt to whom? She did not even seem like an intelligent thief to me. Seeing that her explanation meant nothing to me, she collected the affidavit from me and looked. The next thing I heard was :

'who typed it? Who asked you to type it?'
She said they will give me my money back and take 'their affidavit'. That I should go elsewhere and make the oath.

At this point, I lost my patience and temper. It became clear to me that I was dealing with an ignorant crook. Who told her that she had the power to stop me from doing the affidavit? Who told her that private affidavits must be typed by the Court. I mean she made it so clear with her actions that she is fantastically corrupt.

I stepped out of their office and headed to the Registrar's office. They started pleading. The guy who took the money started running helter skelter.

He took me to the office of another oga. The oga was polite. Cool office. He took the affidavit document from me and read. He screamed : 'did they not even read this thing to see that this man is a lawyer'? He stormed out and left me alone in the office.

It became clear to me that the oga was not necessarily angry at what they did. He was angry that they did it to a lawyer. He felt they were daft to do so to a lawyer. They should have done it only to other members of the public. They should have known that a lawyer is "bad market".

The oga returned with the woman and asked her to apologise for saying I should get my #2000 and go elsewhere to do the oath. She did. And I accepted the apology.

The oga thought that was all. He looked happy, as if everything has been settled. As if he had just resolved a conflict between Iraq and Kuwait. I brought him back to reality by saying that I am still waiting for receipt. You can't extort me and apologise and bid me farewell, without a refund.

At that point, he asked the lady to excuse us. As soon as the room had only Me and him, he removed the masquerade. He said :"BUT BARRISTER, YOU AND I KNOW THAT THIS THING IS HUNDRED NAIRA. How do we give receipt for 2 thousand "?

I did not bulge. I told him that it was either he gave me the receipt for 2k or I go to the court registrar.

At that point, he went out quietly without a word. I did not know if he went to get the receipt or my money. I looked through the window and saw him outside calling the staff to gather my money. It was then I knew that the loot had already been shared (it was close of work and I was the last customer). They had to send someone to call one
[16/05 07:48] +234 805 869 3161: of the staff at the gate to bring his part before entering a taxi home.

The oga soon returned to the office with my #2000 and asked for hundred Naira. I gave him #100. They wrote #100 on the affidavit with red ink and gave a receipt reflecting #100. The same receipt they said they didn't have.

I walked out of the court feeling sorry for the country. I mean this is a court of law! A place you would expect to see the strictest adherence to probity. Yet people openly engage in extortion. Government charges #100 for something, but corrupt government workers make it #4000 (I believe I was charged #2000 cos I had mine typed already).

People no longer do subtle corruption in this country. Corruption is the norm. The make you look stupid if you don't join in. Every sector is involved, not just the political class. The civil service stinks.

Last week Tuesday, I went to get my renewed drivers licence. The lady who is employed to hand it over to me, after doing so, stretched out her open palm, as of right. I put #200 in her hand for "Your coke" , and she was not happy. All she did was to remove my licence and give to me and she did it within a minute. Yet she named her bribe. She wanted #2000!! She said she will come to get it in the car in case I don't have it on me. I asked if she will give me a receipt for it and her face dropped.

Next day, I went to another ministry where I made an application needing the Commissioner's approval. I found that the application had not even reached the Commissioner's table . They kept giving excuses. As I made to leave, one of them followed me to the car and asked if I have "seen" them. She said she is helping me by telling me that if I don't "cooperate", I would be coming and going for 3 months without my file moving to nowhere.

You would think she was talking of between 3k to 10 k, but she named their price in the region of 70 k before I could get the ministry's approval! She kept saying "we are many o" and that 40k out of the money is for their ogas.

As I reached the office, I met a client whose tenant locked out of her own compound. She had to take refuge elsewhere for days. I mean this tenant destroyed glass windows in the compound, threatened to kill the landlady and, you won’t believe this, used a security padlock to lock the house owner out of her compound!

I immediately put a call the the DPO within jurisdiction. In fact, I drove down to the Police station to see him. He assigned the case to an IPO and directed an immediate arrest of the tenant.

As I made to leave, the IPO met me outside and said that they needed to be mobilized. He said 'oga you know na'. He asked for the number of the complainant saying he needs to call her to get the direction to her compound.

I did not even get back to the office when the woman called to say the Police called her to come to the station with #10, 000.

That is, the life of a citizen is threatened. She is sent away from her own house for days. The windows in Her home are destroyed, including the tank and borehole in the compound.

And the Police want a N10, 000 bribe before they can take any action!

And someone wants me to believe that Nigeria is not fantastically corrupt.

No way!
