Foreign Affairs / Re: Joel Cauchi: Sydney Mall Stabbing Suspect Identified By Police (Pics) by DNAconverter: 4:15pm On Apr 14
I worked in a community centre in one of the western countries. The community center mainly provides various services, ranging from hot meal to clothing, to the destitute, homeless and mentally challenged whites. What I have noticed is that white that are mentally challenged often expressed their 'madness' mainly in the most violent ways possible. I have had a lot of experiences which I'm not ready to rehase here but the point here is that while Nigerian madness is mainly expressed through irrationality, that of the white is mainly violent expressions.

Business / FX Scarcity? How Innovative Are Nigerian Banks by DNAconverter: 7:39pm On Jan 22
I read a piece of news recently about several Fintech positioning themselves as intermediaries of FX from Nigerians in the diaspora. Yes, that’s exactly what is happening. Let's take Canada for example, 90% of Forex remittance from Nigerians hustling in this country is being controlled by Africhange and Lemfi. And what is the architecture of their solution? Sending money here in Canada is mostly by interac email transfer. In other words, you send money from one account to another using your registered email. Hence, this fintech has app designed to link your registered interac email with their app and once you transfer from this email to their email address, your app is automatically credited with the amount transferred. With the money on your app, you can then remit to Nigeria in naira using the exchange rate arbitrarily arrived at by these fintechs. Such remittance will be settled via third-party fintech like Paga or MFB. My question and basis of argument here is why is it hard for Nigerian banks to tap into this flexible remittance model? Why is it hard for these banks to design diaspora banking that is tailored to the needs of major bases of Nigerian diaspora like UK & Europe, USA, and Canada? Until these initiatives are taken by banks, diaspora remittance will continue to be an exclusive of FINTECHs.

Politics / Re: Supreme Court Reserves Judgement In Appeal By Peter Obi, Labour Party by DNAconverter: 12:54pm On Oct 23, 2023
A court can reserve judgment by giving its decision at a later date in writing, after the trial or hearing (as opposed to an ex tempore judgment which is given by the judge orally straight after the hearing or trial). At the end of the hearing the judge will usually state that judgment is being reserved and will then later circulate a draft written judgment to the parties. This practice originated in the Court of Appeal, and it is common there and also in the High Court. Where judgment is to be reserved, the judge may, at the conclusion of the hearing, invite the parties’ legal representatives’ views about the arrangements made for the handing down of the judgment (CPR PD 40E, para 2.1). The draft judgment will be provided to the parties’ legal representatives by 4 pm on the second working day before it is formally handed down, or otherwise as directed by the court (CPR PD 40E, para
