Politics › Re: LRU, Call 112: Lagos Gets 911 Service! by dustydee: 9:46am On Jan 03, 2018
nwoke37:
No one said to dial 911. It was only alluding to the emergency service seen in America. If you and the others watched the video , it says dial 112
If you say Lagos gets "911 service" it means 911 service. It would have been different if he said "911-like service" or "service similar to 911".
And the service has been operational for a few years now so my guess is the title had to be deceptive to pull in traffic. By the way did you see the title on the front page? It didn't say call 112. Why confuse people with 911?

The video and the heading of this thread says to dial 112. It's a similar service in America wherein they dial 911.
What is the meaning of "gets 911 service".
The front page titled it differently. And is it not easier to just state it as 112? How many people visit a thread from the home page and still look at the title on the thread?
nairaland is misleading people and Seun and his moderators have refused to rein them in as long as it generates traffic. I wonder if the mod that moved it to FP will get a ban for violating rule 8.

Lagos, the largest city in Africa, gears up for modernization as it starts to operate an emergency service similar to those seen in Europe and America.

Mods, please take this to the front page...
Lala, pleasee
Why do they have 112 on the ambulances? If you call it 911 service? 112 has been the emergency number for some years in Lagos.

Seun, is this 911 information factually correct? before someone in real emergency will dial 911 instead of 112.

Nice op,read your thread from the start,but i'lld like to know if there is by any means,opportunity for I.T guys over there considering they might not lack that there,everyone is open to reply me please.
Yes there is. Have a look at the Tier 1 exceptional talent visa. It has never been filled since the route opened some years ago mainly because people do not know about it and also because they think the requirements are a bit stringent but once you start, it's not that difficult.

On opening account, seems to be quite challenging for me because we are yet to settle and proof of address is key, so in my research for better banks friendly to immigrants I stumbled on one called Monese.

Pls anyone ever heard of them or use them? Seems attractive though, easy to open from your phone et al but you need a monthly sub fees of about 5 pounds.

Oya my UK pple come answer ooo before i enter one chance
Never heard of them. Have you tried Lloyds or TSB? I have a free classic current account with TSB (since my student days as part of Lloyds group). I am nt sure if they still do that as they have been asking me to change to one which I'd pay £9.99 a month with free travel insurance and all that. I no gree grin When I am ready I might consider it.

Kolababe:
A Zambian politician and former opposition UPND Vice President, Dr. Canisius Banda has left friends and fans in shock after a nude photo of himself was posted on his Facebook page. A lot of Zambians were shocked and suspected he was either trying to send the pics to a lady and then mistakenly posts to Facebook, or his account must have been hacked.

The photo has since been deleted

So you are not sure if he was trying to send it to a lady or not yet you concluded on the topic that he was trying to send it to a lady. What is wrong with bloggers these days?

@OP, can you also include Tier 1 exceptional talent visa? Not many people know about the Tier 1 exceptional talent route. There are 1000 visas available annually in this category but has never been filled since it started. The government is considering increasing it to 2000 visas in the face of Brexit. It is also more flexible than Tier 2 as you will be free to work for any employer or set up your own company.

My elder brother happen to be a Managing direction of a private Organisation. The Organisation conducted aptitude test and interview for the qualified applicants on Monday, but only 6 out of 25 applicants were picked (4 mens and 2 ladies). This afternoon while I was in his office, he showed me the names and the Cv of those people.
But to my greatest surprise my Ex who break my heart back then at the Polytechnics happen to be among. This lady drop me purposely because am from a poor home and follow another guy despite all the love and cares I show her.
I think this is the pay back time, Should I block her way? Cause what she did then is still fresh in my heart.

Good job you are doing here. I worked with some Algerians for about 3 years, unfortunately I could not visit the work site (In Salah) for security reasons.
Can you please explain how these farms are cultivated? Do they bring in soil from other areas or is it the same desert sand?

These vending machines can dispense sandwiches, hot coffee, tea etc and can also microwave dispensed snacks. Usually we're stuck with this on weekends when the restaurants in the premises are closed.

I really embarrassed myself the first time I tried to use it... Don't blame me, I'm not posh at all!
I thought there were plans to do away with these vending machines due to the health implications (unhealthy snacks).

And I fell for it.
My God, I just stupidly sent N50, 0000 to these scammers yesterday. It sounded so real that I can't but just to make the payment almost immediately.
All my savings is gone.
Why is this happening to me now.

God have mercy.
The person that claim to be my mate number is 0816 789 3361
And his in-law Dr Paul Lawson number is 08140514297.

I'm having sleepless night right now.

Please beware of these scammers.

I'm just learning from my own mistakes.
Why would you pay for a job?
How did you send it to them? Was it through a bank account? if so, you need to contact the bank as soon as possible.
But I am amazed that people pay for a job in Nigeria, that is so wrong and aids the scamming business.
