Oga wailer stop deceiving yourself... this issue ain't mundane.

It's like americans discussing whether they want a melania trump as their first lady...it's a key issue, so save your rhetoric for half-baked brains.

Like the ignorant people who found it fit to allow a convicted confessed fraudster to become head of ESWAMA.

As for your light situation wetin man go do? Here we had light for @least 18hrs a day until this past 3weeks where it's been total black out.

If NDA n other disruptive elements can be shut down then naija will experience unexpected boom.

Also govt @ all levels continue to invest in new alternative sources of power and we have a promise of 7000 mgw by Dec.

As for the lack of power in your area... sorry ehn
You see why I don't bother with this section?
Most of you are too emotional and sentimental.
What in the world is Wailers and Zombie if not for the pathetic orientation of the Nigerian people?

I criticize based on what I see.
I have even commended this government on several issues, and still defend them at home against members of my family who supported during the elections, but are frustrated right now.
That still doesn't stop me from speaking against ills like hiring Tens of SANs to defend an uncomplicated issue like presentation of school certificate.
So my friend, I'm quite non partisan and haven't lost my reasoning to sycophancy!

OBJ and Atiku were unquestionably involved, but are still free, so why would anyone think Aisha would be under any threat even if she's guilty?
I never found sense in the argument anyways that she would be arrested. I only found the banters comical and amusingly entertaining.

I forgot to add, who cares about the additional megawatts to be added when the present one has been supplying us zero KW?
My place used to have light at least 22 hours per day, but just look at the gross inefficiency right now.
The Government's job is to ensure security of the pipelines, and how they do this isn't actually of priority to the citizens.

Another day has come for unserious youths to come together, discussing mundane issues not even the least beneficial, but divisive in nature, while somewhere in Abuja, the supposed leaders of their crews dine together.

I still don't have light after hundreds of days, but the so called enlightened youths will see nothing beneficial to discuss than defending their Oga's wife, as if her not being Aisha Burton will improve their fortunes. sad

If chief proponents like OBJ and Atiku are still free, why do people even think any other Nigerian involved would be under threat?
Commonsensical reasoning is not common.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Elxandre(m): 12:04am On Aug 04, 2016
To be frank, Rooney with Zlatan will never Work.
We already know that Zlatan plays the same role with Rooney, i.e. dropping deep to playmake.
And they are both sluggish.

Play Zlatan alone as a target man, or play Rashford alongside.

If there are any drop shipping sites in Nigeria, it can fetch you millions of naira in just 9 months.

But if you wanna make millions of naira in just months, go to Dhgate.com, it's a Chinese wholesale online store, they sell in bulk, like minimum of 50 items each.
They power bank 160 naira and they also do free shipping.
They have many items there
Hmm.
Thanks.

Dude, this argument ain't gonna stop anytime soon especially with Elxandre on the thread. The guy pops out whenever Windows os is mentioned (no offence).

@Elxandre I think you should be open minded in your usage of tech coz it's about the most dynamic sector. How about you play around the other mobile operating systems so as to get a better picture why people are jumping ship from Windows os or cause of its remarkably slow growth rate?
Hahaha...
So you marked me as a windows phone jihadist. grin

Seriously I'm never a fan boy of anything.

In fact I can't buy any Windows phone right now for a friend.
I'm just trying to understand what makes a stock iPhone superior to a stock W8.1 asides apps.

I'm very familiar with Android for sure, so this isn't a closed minded argument.

I should have even moved to Android by now already but for financial constraints..


I've told you to stop judging WP by 8.0 standards which was what you used. Lol
Phones › Re: Is Windows Phone Better Than Iphone? by Elxandre(m): 9:33am On Aug 03, 2016
Geniro let's face it, MS has fvcked up in their execution of grand plans.
Their greatest mistake is dropping behind of W8.1, when W10 apps isn't backwards compatible with it.

KitKat users can run almost any Android apps, while W8.1 can't run anymore new apps.
Pathetic.

Those Kitkat users etc is what gives Android it's seemingly monstrous market share right now.

U keep talking about apps. How about microsoft make good apps for their phones then developers can follow. Take a look at Google apps, they are sleek and well polished. Apple apps also are well polished and they just work. But look at Microsoft apps, they look unfinished and ugly with oversized icons. The only Microsoft apps that are good are the office apps.

From errors downloading updates from the windows store to legacy apps just disappearing from ur phones. I had a lumia 920 once and my contacts app just disappeared like that. Go to the windows store it will tell u the app is already downloaded but I couldn't find it in the app list. I checked online and found out lots of people had the same problem. When microsoft can't make their own apps work, how can they attract developers? Do u think owners of Facebook and Instagram cannot make good apps for Windows? Yes they can but the windows architecture is f!cked up that is why apps look ugly on them, the whole os needs a revamp. If iOS.. a closed and restricted OS can have developers making apps for it than a more open and older windows phone, then there's something microsoft is not doing right.

And who told u that u can't download and upload files on safari? It is obvious u don't use an ios device. I use both ios and android, though android is more functional, u can't take away the fact that ios is just sleek with better battery and ram management.
Abeg, Since when did Safari start uploading documents (not pictures) 'out of the box'?

The architecture is fuvked and there are still brilliant apps made by even unknown developer's?
Okay, 6tag, a third party app for Instagram, or Tubecast a third party app for YouTube are quite incredibly quality apps, but Facebook inc which has more resources compared to a single developer like Rudy hyn couldn't make a decent Instagram app.
Tell me how that's the architecture's fault.

There are great video apps, but VLC never managed to make a quality app, so whose blame is that?

And WP is not as old as you think.
WP7 is different from WP8, and W10 is almost another rewrite aimed at unifying the experience of all the W10 powered devices. XBOX, PC, Phones, and all that.

This has probably contributed to their sluggish progress, as too many users get alienated too often, eg the move to W10 had too many W8.1 users stranded.

I know you evaded the Tizen and BB10 Saga, but continue grin

Yes, I don come! grin

WP is better than an unjailbroken iPhone by a mile!
The browser on WP can actually upload files, download any file type, works seamlessly in mass storage mode when connected with PC, and has a file manager.
That is how a phone should work 'out of the box'.

Don't forget the regular user eg a businessman, won't be jail breaking his phone.

The only reason WP is behind the competition is apps.
Developers these days don't make apps for fun, but they do so to earn from the most populated application stores, and the funny thing is people won't still buy a phone without apps.
It's a vicious cycle. New operating systems have almost no chance to grow. Just look at Tizen.

Even BB10, as excellent as it is, is as good as dead, just because devs neglected it.

How can u show me a phone that hasn't been released? It's just like me asking u to check out the iPhone 7 plus. Abeegi.. Windows phone is still way behind android and ios especially in the software department. I still repeat there is no windows phone put there with a better hardware and software than iPhone 6s. Try again.
the only thing ios has over wp 8.1 upwards is apps!

There is no windows phone that has a better hardware than an iphone. The current flagship windows phone (the lumia 950XL) has a very inferior hardware compared to the Iphone 6s. And when it comes to software windows is way behind IOS.

Christianity Etc › Churches Should Not Be Ran Like Businesses by Elxandre(op):
My major problem with these churches is their lack of impact in the society outside the church environ.

People wonder why Christianity spread like wildfire in Africa.

Why wouldn't it spread with the major impact the missionaries made in improving the lives of the local populace?
They built hospitals, clinics, schools, and made them quite accessible to the impoverished and proletarian alike.


Now compare that to our much richer modern churches.
They have hardly made any impact in the lives of people outside the church.
We can't point to any major impact they make in the society despite being rich enough to acquire multiple private jets.

The schools established by the biggest of the mega churches are not even cheap enough despite the churches being rich enough to provide heavy subsidies for the fees.

At this juncture, many will frown and say "it costs money to run a school or build hospitals."
I don't think many fully comprehend how much these churches are worth.
Tithes and offerings/vows from several thousands of members obviously accrue into substantial sums.

If the church fully engages in active humanitarian endeavors, they wouldn't even have to preach/evangelize much before multitude fill up every single seats every Sunday.

The church shouldn't be run as a business outfit where the ultimate goal is an account balance in the green.
I still remember how the stranded guy and the church member woman who couldn't get school fees for her ward at a crucial period were 'helped'.
They placed them in front of the church auditorium and announced an offering towards their cause.
The woman was down cast when she couldn't raise anything close to her projected need.

What would have been wrong with the church simply taking from the church coffers and helping the woman directly?

Acts 2:45
And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.


This is the real goal of the church, not who has the largest auditorium or the most private jets.

Nothing wrong if we see local projects emblazoned with the name of churches in our neighborhoods.

Things like boreholes to save the locals from health risks they are exposed to with water not-potable enough.

Ps: I was still in church today, before you start thinking I'm an atheist.

Happy Sunday. smiley

And why in this world do we still have this foolish rivalry amongst African countries?

Would Europeans go online to celebrate a neighboring country's misfortunes?

I've never seen a thread on Nairaland involving Ghana, Nigeria and SA which doesn't end up in insults and petty name calling

These are signs of 'unintelligence'.

I don't know if this is related to this theory though

Could there be any reason why I see some persons, and I feel I've certainly met them, even when I'm in an entirely strange land?

And some situations just flashes in my head like I've gone through them before in the exact same manner and place it's presently manifesting.
