Travel / Re: U.K Is The 2nd Most Miserable Country In The World - MHQ Study Shows by Dollyak(f): 7:57pm On Mar 09
British people by nature gives off a vibe which can be perceived as miserable. The reality is very much different.

Travel / Re: U.S Army Helicopter Crashes Killing 3 Soldiers, Injuring 1 In Texas (Photos) by Dollyak(f): 8:24am On Mar 09
I am fascinated by helicopters but I can't fly in one unless it is perhaps bell 525, which is the first and only fly by wire helicopter in the world.
Unfortunately, until they are able to create redundancy for gearbox this will keep happening.

Politics / Re: Tinubu Vows To Fight Smugglers, Corruption To Ruins by Dollyak(f): 6:09am On Mar 01
Tinubu may undoubtedly change the economic outlook of the country for the better, but I doubt he'll solve the fundamental corruption problems.
He comes across as a pragmatic man who is happy to turn a blind eye to "small stealing" as long as you perform in assigned tasks.
He cares about the nation but is morally conflicted.

Politics / Re: Tinubu Launches Expatriate Employment Levy (EEL) by Dollyak(f): 9:25am On Feb 28
Again, another good policy. Hiring foreign expatriate should be discouraged and more effort to be put into training local employees to be just as good as foreign workers.

I can't believe i am saying this, but based on recent moves and policies, Tinubu's government may end up being the best ever in the history of naija. He needs to be more sensitive though and get tough on corruption.

He should have probed Buhari. I know he is a thief himself but surely he must know this level of stealing is too much and is akin to sabotage of his government.

I won't hold my breath but I hope Tinubu allows the new EFCC boss to carry out his works without interference. I'll imagine the elites in the North will start lobbying for EFCCtl to back off.

My advise is for you to continue to develop both your technical and soft skills to ensure you are relevant. If you develop yourself to a high level, you can always widen your horizon and apply for better job

I am not sure why your post was pushed to the front page without screening your previous post. Your response calling someone stupid shows you need personal visitation from God yourself. Your verbal abuse detract from your message and does more harm than good.

This story does not add up imo. You can replace your british passport unlimited times if you have the funds. It's not like you are getting it for free.
The replacement cost is meant to be a deterrent for losing your passport

I personally think putting rank on children's academic achievement damages children. I think Nigeria and Africans are the ones that mostly does this.

It is virtually almost impossible to steal the 33kv equipment without first isolating the circuit breakers. The environment in that picture is too confined.

This is a phase to phase electrocution. The ladder could even provide phase to earth electrocution. People needs to learn what Faraday theory is.

President Tinubu miscalculated with the subsidy gone statement, and this is one of the net effect.

I am sorry, irrespective of your political stance, the subsequent actions by spending on frivolities is disgraceful. This government needs to start spending on what will benefit the economy (i.e subsidising small business) and be more fiscally responsible.

Anything to move our Darling country forward is all we want at MANNA.
What's with the generic comment of anything to move your country forward? Please for once review the budget and objectively give comment without sounding like a zombie.


Anyways, having reviewed it earlier my thought is that education and health care each needs to be increased to 10% of the budget. We need to borrow special separate funds for electricity development.

Interestingly, this could take off this time as the focus is now both on generation and transmission. It'll be interesting to see how they intend to generate though.
Based on 132kv transmission, it looks like it'll be an embedded generation.

To be honest demolition seems the cheapest solution to improve the flooding problem in lagos. Other solutions like underground flood path, are much more expensive.
The handling of this from PR perspective has been nothing short of disaster

Firstly, she should have been rushed to the hospital, instead of being taken to mortuary. Some Nigerians who have been pronounced dead were not clinically dead and could have been saved with better emergency care. She was probably unconscious and presumed dead until too late.

Nigeria is gone and the people are morally bankrupt. Most Nigerians knows the budgets are heavily padded but are happy to defend due to partisan, religious or ethnic reasons.

Nairaland / General / Re: Transformer Explodes In Plateau Community, Many Feared Dead by Dollyak(f): 8:15pm On Oct 14, 2023
Nigeria needs to invest in protective devices to protect the most important assets which is the transformers. I hope this is not a 33kv or above transformers as the replacement will be expensive. This is more likely to be overload or three phase earth fault.

He has said the facts himself. The so-called forged documents are legal where the person is coming from.

If I have a baby aborted while in the US, you cannot bring a case against me in Nigeria as it is not a crime where it happened.

Plus, the moment the document was taken back to the school to certify it affirms their permission
That makes no sense. The fact something is legal in USA makes no difference to Nigeria as both practices different constitution. I think we can all agree it should have been managed better by Tinubu and his team

Not to sound like a downer, but any deal sttuck will only provide a temporary fix until all citizens rise up to fight the system.

Any money made will still filter into the politicians hands at the expense of the poor. Really angry that the lawmakers were supposedly paid #100m and there is no uproar from the masses. It feels like the most intelligent citizens have left the country.

Eran iya ni awon eyan gan.
