Politics / Re: Nigerian Senators, Reps To Pocket N23․7 Billion As Gratuity, Allowances by Dontrapatolli(m): 5:35am On May 01, 2019
They use divide and rule, hungry citizen defend them and some even lost their lives fighting for these vultures. For the one that were ex - Governors they will get this allowance and still receive pension from their states. For those who have been part of the 6th,7th and 8th Senate they have pocketed the said amount 3x. It is not rocket science why we have violence mar elections. So sad!

I guess not everyone will like to attend a show in Stadium with all the negative news that comes with attending shows in open and crowded setting.
He should go back to the idea that made Olic 1, 2 and 3 successful.

@dabullit. Except the thieves haven't determined to steal whatever kind of car yet.

@dontrapatolli. You were very luck, they weren't able to access that obd connector.

Extremely lucky, it would have been a different story. I guess they are not familiar with the car as they couldn't locate the obd port easily. Mercedes told me they can't hot wire it without having access to the key

Thanks OP for this info. The more smarter cars are becoming the easier it is for them to be stolen. One of those methods you mentioned was used to access my car and the damage done is devasting as they tried to get into the OBD port.

Career / Don't Start 2015 Without Reading This by Dontrapatolli(m): 8:31pm On Dec 31, 2014
Dont Start 2015 Without The Following::

There are laws and principles that guides every society, listed below are laws that could make 2015 a great year.

1. LAW OF PURPOSE

Before 2015 starts, take some time out to play back what you’ve achieved this year and then as a progression write down and memorize what you want for 2015.

If you don’t know and define where you are going, then everywhere you get to would look like it. 2015 should be a year of deep discoveries for you. This is because a  great life is lived inside-out, from you to others. Find yourself, and empty it in the service of others and you’ll succeed. It is one that can turn mirrors into windows In 2015 – START RIGHT, CHART YOUR COURSE.

2. THE LAW OF VISION

In 2015, if you’d be limited, it will not be by your abilities, but by – YOUR VISION. Have a big picture of what you want at the end of 2015 before it even starts and then ensure that there is a progressive realization of each of those set goals. Its vital that you do this.

 

3. THE LAW OF KNOWLEDGE

Bullets have killed a lot of men, but ignorance has killed much more people than bullets ever will!

Maybe next year is about time you head back to school, or  get a certification or a crash course in line with what you do and where you want to be. 2015 holds massive growth for those who know. To grow more, to do more – LEARN MORE.

 4. THE LAW OF BRANDING

Define who you want to be, seen and how you’d want to be looked at next year. From aesthetics to attitude to brand associations. Please understand that the only thing more important than what you’d be doing or selling in 2015 is what the buyer believes he is buying – BE BRANDED

5. THE LAW OF CHARACTER

Be firm. Do not overvalue what you are not and undervalue what you are as well as what you do. In 2015, we will become what we have repeatedly done – CHARACTER

6. THE LAW OF VALUE AND RESULTS

In 2015, please don’t be a busy bee like you’ve always been. In the past, you may have worked hard, now it’s time to work smart. Look at the value chains of your life; recognize the things that have added the most value and things that have wasted your time. And then from this, know what to start, what to stop and what to keep doing. In our pursuit for wealth, value is the currency. But its glaring that people don’t pay for efforts, they pay for results – in 2015, be result oriented, addVALUE

7. THE LAW OF PEOPLE

2015 is the year of influence, the year of people. It is that year that the relationships you have built in the past years would come to play. My advice is that you know and stick with the right people. In 2015, how you NETwork  will determine your NETworth. Begin to use your built connections and goodwill.  And if you don’t have enough of that, then begin to build one. Remember, PEOPLE – are the greatest assets for 2015, invest in them.

8.THE LAW OF CREATIVITY

Go across boundaries. When we all think alike, then no one is thinking -BE CREATIVELY DIFFERENT in 2015. Think out of the box, as a matter of fact, think like there’s no box.

 

9.THE LAW OF SACRIFICE


With austerity measures powered by the decline in the economy, I’m afraid that in 2015, there’s only one way to succeed, sacrifice! People who have an edge are those who have made sacrifices or have started making them. To go up, choose something hard to give up – you may need to DENY TODAY’S DESIRES, TO ACHIEVE TOMORROW’S DREAM.


10.THE LAW OF RISKS

Take out your fears and then take off to your dreams. Ships are safe at bay, but that’s not why there were made. Eagles learn to fly by jumping off the sky. In 2015,  only those who will risk going too far, can possibly find out how far it is possible to go!

11.THE LAW OF INNOVATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY

If what you’ve done in the last years still looks big to you, then you haven’t done much this year. If your process, lifestyle and pattern don’t make things better, safer, simpler, work faster and life easier, then it’s not it – REPLACE IT

12.THE LAW OF PROCESS AND CONTINIOUS IMPROVEMENT

You are expected to grow daily, not in a day – KAIZEN. Always look for 3 things at every point in your life, what to START, what to STOP and what to keep DOING.

13.THE LAW OF MANAGEMENT

In whatever you do in 2015, be consistent.  Follow through. Also, create a professionally structured mode of operation and control. – have a FUNCTIONAL STRUCTURE for what you do.

14.THE LAW OF LEADERSHIP

Be close to the greater ones you know for their lives and success stories hold templates to where you need to be. Get a mentor or get closer to the one you already have. Follow the steps of great leaders and successful people before you.. 


15.THE LAW OF MARKETTING

Sell yourself to the world in 2015. Let them know you and what you can offer. In marketing, positioning is everything – create the right PERCEPTION for yourself in 2015

16. THE LAW OF PERSEVERANCE

Don’t give up for 2015 is a much better year. If you do what you need to do and then try your best one more time, you’d succeed this time around. Perseverance is trying 19 times and succeeding the 20th. Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did. Its 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.. – In 2015, be in STEADY DETERMINATION

17. THE LAW OF EXCELLENCE AND GROWTH

Have an attitude for excellence in 2015 and let it show. Have an attitude, the result of always striving to do better – ASPIRE TO BE OUTSTANDING

18. THE LAW OF DEMOGRAPHY

Create your own niche in 2015. For what you do, strategically find and map out the people that need what you have to offer and you’ve found the business and product to succeed.

19.THE LAW OF PROFITABILITY

Learn how to make and stack up your gains this year. Be more financially intelligent. Pay attention to the battle between your earning power and your spending culture. Ensure that you don’t spend more than you earn, And as for earning, maybe now is the best time to create another channel of income else just find the best ways to begin to add more value, more profitably. This year differentiate between business and favours. In whatever you do, if it’s not for free, then…MAKE WORTHY THE FEE.

 

 

20.THE LAW OF GENEROUSITY

The truth is, it’s another year and we are not getting any younger. It’s a New Year means that we have one more year less to live. As we grow older, great people realize that a good life and success comes from not how much we can take but how much we can give. Maybe this year is the best time to see what you can also begin to give back to life and others. As we grow older, what we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains – SHARE MORE IN 2015.

21.THE LAW OF LEGACY

As we grow older, understand that the true test of whatever you are building is succession. It’s about time you start building processes and people that will outlibve you. The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it. In 2015, be a deeper and more matured person. Begin to take more seriously, the things that matter, legacy. BEGIN TO LIVE TO BE REMEMBERED FOR GOOD


Every one is saying based on events unfolding 2015 will be a tough year everywhere in Nigeria we already have (devalued Naira), the Nigerian elections, the low oil prices, stiff competitions), well, I say to them, “no matter how full a BRT bus is in Lagos, the driver’s seat is always reserved. That’s our position. Go Further Ahead. CNN’s Richard Quest says that 2015 will be  a year of synergy and I agree.

Let’s get closer next year. There’s so much we can do together.

 Have a great 2015

Politics / Hundreds Of Nigerian Prisoners To Be Sent Home To Serve Out Sentence by Dontrapatolli(m): 7:33pm On Oct 15, 2013
Hundreds of Nigerian prisoners to be sent home to serve out sentence under deal to ease pressure on UK jails
A total of 534 Nigerian nationals are serving sentences in British prisons
Britain has promised £1million to improve Nigeria's crumbling jails
Minister Jeremy Wright says prisoner transfer deal is close to being sealed
David Cameron promised to slash the number of foreign inmates



Hundreds of Nigerian criminals will be sent home to serve out prison sentences under a deal set to be struck by ministers within weeks.
Talks are continuing into reaching a compulsory prisoner transfer agreement, which could see more than half of the 500 criminals from Nigeria currently in UK jails repatriated.
Prisons minister Jeremy Wright told MailOnline how 'more foreign prisoners must serve their sentences in their own countries'.

Deportation: Ministers want to send hundreds of Nigerian criminals to serve out their sentence at home to cut the cost for British taxpayers
Ministers have been ordered to step up efforts to end the scandal of more than one in eight prisoners being from overseas.
David Cameron vowed to end the practice of the British taxpayer picking up the bill for criminals with no business in the UK.
The Prime Minister said in 2010 that he would ’personally intervene’ to send more foreign criminals home.

Britain has even made clear it would pay to build new prisons in countries like Nigeria to speed up the process of sending foreign criminals home. Up to £1million has been promised to upgrade Nigerian jails, including a new wing at Kirikiri Prison in Lagos.
But to date little progress has been made. When the coalition was formed there were 11,135 foreign prisoners in UK jails, and this figure has fallen by just three per cent since to 10,786.

Each felon costs an average of around £40,000 a year to keep inside.
Last week it was announced that notorious Liberian warlord Charles Taylor is to serve his 50-year sentence for war crimes in the UK.
A prisoner-transfer agreement was struck with Albania earlier this year to 'free up space in prisons here and reduce the cost to the British taxpayer’.
It was the first major bilateral prisoner transfer agreement with a country outside the European Union.
There were around 250 Albanians in UK jails in June this year.
But securing an agreement with Nigeria would be seen as a much more significant breakthrough.
Latest figures show there were 534 Nigerian nationals in British jails, 485 men and 49 women.
Nigerians account for one in 20 of all foreign prisoners, putting the country fifth in the league table of nations whose citizens have been jailed in the UK.
Justice Minister Mr Wright said: ‘I am clear that more foreign prisoners must serve their sentences in their own countries.
‘That is why we are currently working with the Nigerian Government on a compulsory prisoner transfer agreement to increase the number of prisoners who are transferred.
‘Legislation allowing Nigeria to enter such an arrangement was passed earlier this year by the Nigerian Parliament. We are now working with them on the text of a final agreement.’
Overflowing jails abroad have made it increasingly difficult to deport prisoners to their own country.
It is argued that by paying for building new jails or making existing ones more ‘comfortable’ so they approach British standards, will be repatriated.

Deal: David Cameron, who promised to help Nigeria improves its jails, hopes to strike a deal with Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan
In April Mr Cameron said: ‘When people are sent to prison in the UK we should do everything we can to make sure that if they’re foreign nationals, they are sent back to their country to serve their sentence in a foreign prison.
‘And I’m taking action in Government to say look we have strong relationships with all of the countries where these people come from.
‘Many are coming from Jamaica, many from Nigeria, many from other countries in Asia.
‘We should be using all of the influence we have to sign prisoner transfer agreements with those countries. Even if necessary frankly helping them to build prisons in their own country so we can send the prisoners home.’
