vicyreigna: [color=#000099][/color] What is wrong with zenith bank. Does it mean they don't obey the order from the Senate mandating the CBN to ask banks to stop the ATM card maintenance fee. I woke up this morning to receive a message from the bank that #52.50 has been deducted for card maintenance for the month of October. Why are they fast to deduct it earlier this time than the end of the month they normally deducts it. Zenith bank is trying to be smart.
Does the senate have the powers to tell banks how to run their businesses other than to make laws? The said "order" is just an advice and CBN can choose to incorporate it into their guidelines.
Racoon: Can you imagine how this government continue to display it crass foolishness and stupidity everyday of it moribund existence
With enough problems already on ground & no iota of idea on how you can resolve them without an impasse, so why heating up the polity with constricting irrational decisions
Imagine denying worker the right to unionism.Asking healthcare workers not to do private practice @ their spare time? Who survives only on an unreliable govt. salary in today's Nigeria You wonder who are the economic advisers of this useless government?
Gagging of real or perceived political enemies under all manner of guise but it's not going to work.This is a bad PR policies for this government.
Going on strike is not prohibited but you just don't expect to get paid. That's what happens in advanced economies. I wonder why it took so long to implement in Nigeria.
Pipedreams: There is a valid job offer..the job is in a factory
people have warned you and you seem hell bent on going ahead. Why then did you create a thread on nairaland when you are not interested the advice? A valid job offer from where? Even some with a valid PR don't get factory jobs that easily and a company is willing to sponsor your permit to get you all the way from Nigeria to Canada. You must have very special skills for them to be willing to do that. Just use the money and buy suya or pepper soup and enjoy yourself assuming you have no meaningful thing to do with your money. And forget about the "pay later" line because by the time the agent withholds your passport, you won't know when you pay him.
Aaronsrod: Then you disagree with the word of God!
People like you who oppose killing gay are part of the problem.
Please point out where in the word of God that I disagree with. Sir/ma, the word of God does not instruct you to kill people. Indeed it says "Thou shall not kill". Homosexuality is a sin. Why don't you go about killing those that engage in fornication or adultery?
Supporting gay rights is different from supporting gay lifestyle. I do not believe they should be killed, maimed or imprisoned. They should have a right to live even though I do not agree with their lifestyle.
Runalong333: I hear you bro. But don't you think the minority good countries for migration would be overwhelmed with a lot of people in their checkpoints or borders ? Wouldn't that cause a lot of hatred and abuse ? . I still stand with; let's develop our respective countries first before thinking of such , then we will have common respect and few people will be desperate to cross the borders to enjoy what is not theirs.
I get you, but of what use will it be to migrate when you know there is a high chance that you can't work or setup a business? When you find it difficult to rent a house or open a bank account?
Runalong333: African countries need to develop their respective lands before attempting this rubbish, if you are honest , you know if we would open borders through out Africa, only a few countries would be flooded .
Open borders does not mean open migration. That's why I mentioned proper checks being put in place. Such measures should make it difficult for illegal migrants to rent houses, own businesses, work and even open bank accounts. Trust me it will come with some challenges but the benefits, in the end, will outweigh the negatives.
Honestly, Africa stands to gain a lot by relaxing movement between member states. It will boost tourism and integration. Granted the few bad ones will try to expand their territory but with adequate checks, the impact can be reduced.
The Youth wing of Ohanaeze Ndigbo on Monday congratulated the Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar on his emergence at the party’s primary.
The former Vice President on Sunday defeated 11 other aspirants to pick the party’s ticket.
He will challenge incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressive Congress, APC, in next year’s general election.
Reacting to the victory of the former Vice President, Ohaneze Youth Council Worldwide led by Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro said Atiku is the right man for the job.
The group, however, insist that only a running mate from South East will be a suitable pair for PDP to win 2019 Presidential election.
“Majority of Igbo believes in Restructuring and majority of Igbo Youths wants Referendum because of the economic hardship in the country, we believe that Atiku whose campaign of restructuring will win the hearts of Nigerians and possible pair of running mate from South East Will quell the quest of referendum by agitators and Igbo Youths”.
“We insists that any betrayal of denying Ndigbo the Vice Presidential slot of PDP will make Ndigbo dump PDP in the Presidential election, but will vote PDP in the Gubernatorial elections in Abia, Ebonyi and Enugu”.
The group further said that the zone ‘has better personalities like Peter Obi, Ngozi Okonjo Iwuala, Sen Dr Ike Ekweremadu and Sen Enyinnaya Abaribe who are fit for the Vice Presidential job’ The group warned that it will work against the PDP by mobilising youths in the zone to vote for another party of Mr Atiku fails to pick his running late from the South East.
Sadly so. I wonder why people offering themselves to serve will wish to impose themselves on the people. If the people you want to serve say no, then move on and go and do other things.
It is clear that the party does not want Fela as its presidential candidate. This chairman goofed. FD donated 1.75m to the party when all he is obliged to is his membership dues and you are complaining? He also stated that his dream was to build a credible platform for Fela and others to contest, so why not build the platform and stop complaining that he did not contribute to building the party? You sold him a form and collected his money and now you are trying to push him out. In sane countries, Political parties rely on donations from businesses and individuals as party dues is not enough to fund elections.

Pastor Dania Emmanuel, the suspended chairman of Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN) and Mr Fela Durotoye, a presidential aspirant under the party has been caught in a night club, celebrating the alleged N1.3bllion All Progressive Congress (APC) largesse.
Recall that Fela Durotoye was alleged to have received N750million and Dania N250million from the N1.3 billion hush money said to have been provided by All Progressive Congress (APC) to halt the progress of Global Business man and frontline presidential aspirants under the banner of Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN), Mr Olawepo Hashim.
Exclusive video of Fela and the suspended ANN chairman, Dania Emmanuel has been obtained at a night party, celebrating the APC largesse.
You claimed they are "celebrating alleged APC largesse" how can you be sure they are celebrating a largesse you are not sure they collected? Some bloggers are block heads walahi. And the moderators that keep promoting them are worse. And even the club no get name? Abi na "alleged" club too?
So UKVI got back and admitted their error but they said i should send my passport to their P.O.Box in Sheffield but as a Naija guy, i will go there myself.
Please do you or anyone know the specific address in Sheffield? All i have is a P.O.Box..
Thanks.
That means you will be in the UK by then? Also going to UKVI offices is by appointment only, unless you work there.
DisGuy: What soap are you actually looking for? Get someone in London or Manchester to send it to you.
Wetin do Dove, Dettol, etc
it could be those types of soap used for good luck, money, wife or husband etc. or it could be bleaching type too, since it is illegal to sell in the UK, may be difficult to find.
Babyvet: Exactly my point, why does one need a visa to a country they are supposedly a citizen of. Plus according to his timeline, he was f1 about six years. In thread he said father filed for him but in another thread he claimed a sibling was filing for him.
What if he didn't know? What if his dad had refused to give him the necessary details? If he didn't know then possibly he wouldn't have put it on his application for F1. As Radautoworks confirmed, her husband also arrived the US on a visa and went straight to citizenship so there is no question that it is possible to move from visa to citizenship. You can however disagree with his story given what he has posted on nairaland over the years.
pweshdodo: That poor man shouldn't have picked up a contest again..people curse him everyday still he doesn't care.i wonder how he copes with such insults...i dont like his either but i love his tribe,they are beautiful and caring...buhari should invest with what he has right now because he is going to loose ...
