collitexnaira: Nawa oo
Looking at the way a grown-up man hugged his mom so tight for minutes, that shows he has been over pampered with so much affection which turned him to a simp. lol, how was he supposed to hug is mother abeg ? Even though I see nothing wrong with the way he hugged his mother, just that he's the crown prince of SIMPville. |
Travel › Re: Crashed Bell Helicopter Pilot Had No Valid License - AIB by ecomalchemist(m): 10:02am On Sep 22, 2020 |
Reference: And for those speaking about fuel dumping, there are a few things to be understood.
Helicopters are relatively low flying aircraft optimised for operations in terrain that does not afford space or ground conditions fixed wing aircraft require to take off and land safely. Meaning small airfields, rugged mountainous or soft-swampy land or urban area ocated helipads.
When fuel is dumped is comes out of the aircraft through a pitot under pump pressure as a fine mist observed on ground as a contrail if two conditions are fulfilled. One, the aircraft is moving FAST enough to aerosol the fuel and two, the aircraft is flying HIGH enough for atmospheric pressure to suspend the aerosol long enough for it to be dispersed before gravity takes over (the reason why clouds are up there and not down at our feet). A helicopter traditionally does not do both relatively well.
Thirdly and most importantly as in this case, there are strict regulations as to where an aircraft CAN DUMP FUEL. In most countries it is strictly forbidden over populated areas for obvious reasons so an aircraft coming into Lagos (a sprawling metropolis) will have to fly out or fly by to the Atlantic to do that, further complicating any emergency.
The vast majority of helicopters operating around the world do so in predominantly urban settings so making fuel dumping a staple is just irrelevant. That is why today it is only military helicopters that do so and only for specific operational reasons in their designated military set ups.
Hypothetically speaking, if that Bell chopper had dumped fuel flying at such a low altitude and slow speed coming into MMA, several fires will have erupted along the trail perhaspos causing a lot more devastation. Hypothetically speaking as well, if the pilot had noticed any malfunction he should have just found the nearest spot to land immediately. A land no matter where is always better than a crash.
For any pilots reading this. Put your aircraft down immediately. Life is better than a bad name or earning a bad rap. What happens if you land your copter on land due to faults or you ran out of fuel ? Would that dent your profile as a pilot ? |

dasparrow: Lol, I know whom you're talking about. Phrankleen. I thought Phrankleen wants to pay $17,000 for Canadian papers for him and his family? He made a video about that so I was under the impression he has already moved to Canada.
I read a comment on YouTube under one of Wode Maya's videos were the commenter complained about Phrankleen's rudeness. Now you mentioned it too so I guess it's true. I don't really follow Phrankleen, partially watched 1 video of his but I do watch Wode Maya's videos.
Living in Nigeria comes with a whole lot of challenges. I don't know how things are in other African countries but Nigeria is not an easy country to live in.
I did move back to Nigeria from the States during the Goodluck Jonathan administration because family members were nagging me to come back. When I moved back, I realized I will not be able to live in Nigeria ever again. Nigeria is not for the faint hearted and if you are a gentle person, Nigerians will consider you weak and one to be taken advantage of. I couldn't stay so when Buhari came into power and with the rising costs of living, I left Nigeria again. My cousin who moved back to Nigeria from the UK during GEJ's administration also left and went back to the UK. So many Nigerians from the diaspora that had moved back to Nigeria during GEJ'S tenure moved back overseas when GMB became president.
As much as I would love to retire in Africa when I am old or semi-old, I really don't know which African country would be ideal because Nigeria is not it for me. I know quite a few Nigerians want to retire in Africa too but don't want to come back to Nigeria. It's a dicey situation. It really is. Insightful thread bro, I know for sure I'm retiring in Gambia (the smiling coast of africa) and setting up a business there. A lot of returnees on youtube have been settling in (Gambia and ghana) for sometime now and its been great all the same. Nigeria is something else and I'm not even prepared mentally to face the challenges. |

lol, Nigerians and desperation.
If you ask Mrs Ojo to give you 50k to start a small business now, she'd tell you that she doesn't have.
As long as Nigerians remain in perpetual poverty and seek to migrate to the west, these so called fraudsters will have a swell time duping gullible ones. |

Oga there's nothing like wealth is spiritual, that's a foolish thought.
To be rich and wealthy, you either sell a product or service and invest in income generating assets.
Dangote is selling flour, spaghetti, cement, sugar, that's why he is wealthy.
If you sell a product of 2,000 with profit of 500 to 2 million people, you will become a millionaire. No one has the excuse to remain poor.
Go learn Facebook and instagram ads, find a hot selling product and sell. Don't say I have not done anything for you !! |

passwordd: The OP or whoever said this must be a beast for saying this rubbish she is talking. I am in my mid twenties yet I am employed... I am a keke napep driver; How am I now a liability? Although I am a graduate, there are no white collar jobs anywhere. It must be noted that the keke napep belongs to me and is not a balance & carry type of keke; It must also be noted that I am single... so again how am I now a liability?
Please she should tell us abeg? Let her go and wash her mouth with soap abeg. It is women like this that don't know how to talk that are usually sexists. It reminds me of the debate on gender equality on Big Brother Naija 3 days ago; I did not know when I changed the channel to African Magic out of disgust. They were only talking about women and children... gender equality doesn't work this way; it is supposed to be about both genders lol, why are you even bothered....how many of them can boast of feeding themselves 3 times a day without using thier pussy as exchange for a meal ticket ? They see Relationships these days as a poverty alleviation scheme, I really don't pay attention to all those twitter rants...its a bubble, let dem come out to see what reality feels like. A great number of them living lavish and flamboyant lifestyles are being funded by glucose guardians (sugar daddy's). I don't take Nigerian women serious at all, not even one bit. |

The number of sane girls in Nigeria no reach 10. Go to an average Nigerian girl timeline, you'll be shocked and amazed how low they've become. lol, why you they bother yourself my man. At 70, we can marry 5 women at once and we'd still take care of them very well. At 30, they run from one Shiloh camp to the other with dwindling hormomes and fertility issues looking for a divine miracle, who is the biggest looser now ? Life is good, patriarchy wins always !!! |
