TravelRe: NCAA To Name & Shame Airlines For Flight Cancellations And Delays by Eminado1: 2:26pm On Sep 08, 2025
We don't need name and shame, they should be made to compensate passengers, many of whom would miss important engagements due to the airline's inability to maintain their schedule.

I believe our state Governors need to sit together more often to brainstorm how to invest in each other's state. How can they stimulate economic activities, facilitate trade and commerce.

Promotes production of local fabrics while simultaneous reducing imports. If these esteemed professionals can wear their local fabrics, it will have a ripple effect across all sectors.

Some time ago, the President also directed all schools to make their uniforms out of their local fabrics.

Commendable move.

TravelRe: FG Bans 60,000 Litre Fuel Tankers From Plying Nigerian Roads Beginning March 1 by Eminado1: 5:41pm On Feb 21, 2025
This was very informative, thanks for sharing.

Seems the informats were a big part of the problem, along with the corrupted security agents deployed to secure the pipelines.

Nigeria has never had a shortage of traitors willing to sabotage an entire system entrusted to them in exchange for financial reward.

With CCTV and drone technology, monitoring pipelines should be easier today.

You are right about the need to overhaul our transport system.

Proudlyngwa:
Sometime around 2011 or before, petroleum products was transported through this type of pipeline you talked about from Port Harcourt to Enugu via the ukwa asix of Abia State.

Then a lot of artisans were hardworking around the Ihie Alaoji axis, but along the line people got idea on how to drill metal with plastic and a lot of bunk spread up around that asix, a lot of security personnel's were drafted to that region but they became corrupted and even started having Thier own bunks. Ihie became a home of bottle bunkers, people filled 33,000 litres tankers with diesel, fuel or kerosene and they had informants of what and when any product will be flowing.
Then 50 litres of any thing was 1k whilst to bring it from the bush to town was 400 naira.
Most times this bunk caught fire and a lot of people died.
Government stopped flowing products through that pipeline and it led to a high level of kidnapping as a lot of them went bust , that was the Osisikanku era, a bikeman who had a gun stealing petroleum products via the pipeline with his boys , before he became a political assassin and a kidnapper .
So flowing petroleum products via pipeline buried 6 feet underground is a very good idea but trust me without advanced and I mean advanced monitoring technologies it will be breached.

The cheapest option remains overhaul generally of our transportation system, not just to build roads and give people drivers licence, a lot needs to be done.

No, I can't say I do. Google does not have much information about it either.

Do you know about Osisikanku
TravelRe: FG Bans 60,000 Litre Fuel Tankers From Plying Nigerian Roads Beginning March 1 by Eminado1: 12:22pm On Feb 21, 2025
That is not my area of specialization. But one solution can be to promote the use of underground pipelines in transporting petroleum products.

Create an alternative, if it is more effective and efficient, the operators in the market would adopt it.

Proudlyngwa:
so what is your own advice to this problem
TravelRe: FG Bans 60,000 Litre Fuel Tankers From Plying Nigerian Roads Beginning March 1 by Eminado1: 9:36am On Feb 20, 2025
Why does our government's solution to every problem involve a ban?

PoliticsRe: What Does Crypto Contribute To The Economy by Eminado1: 1:13pm On Feb 22, 2024
There is no positive benefit to the economy. Every penny put into crypto will be better utilized in the banks, where they can be loaned to businesses that are adding value or invested directly into these businesses through various mechanisms like NSE.

Crypto thrives for the same reason Ponzi schemes thrive... People want quick profit without caring who gets hurt.
Car TalkRe: Which Of These Would You Use To Protect Your Car In Today's World? by Eminado1: 11:18am On Oct 09, 2023
All three of them serve different purposes and should be used together.

The steering lock makes the car more difficult to move after thieves gain access to your car.

Should the steering lock fail, the tracker helps you locate the car.

Should the tracker fail or they successful remove items from your car, the Insurance helps you cover the cost of repair or replacement.

Request comprehensive insurance from a reputable broker or insurance agent.

Next time, he won't slap a woman that he met at sex gadget shop
How many appral cases can the woman afford? While he is using taxpayers funds to appeal. He would rather pay his lawyers than pay the woman. He was reelected to the Nigerian senator when he should have been impeached at the very least.
SportsRe: Why Are Players Going To Saudi Arabia? by Eminado1: 7:30am On Aug 17, 2023
The World Cup created awareness about football development in the region. The players see a country eager to develop their sport and are eager to help (for a fee). This is no different from when America and China signed some big names in football.

Before these top players will consider auch a move, there must be certain standards in place such security, infrastructure (good stadiums and all), credibility, and so on.

For Saudi Arabia, they hope the fans, sponsors, and other stakeholders of these players move with the players to the league.

RomanceRe: Men Are Becoming More Lonely Because Women Are Not Settling For Less (photos) by Eminado1: 12:12pm On Aug 18, 2022
This is funny. The percentage of men on dating sites does not adequately represent the reality of the dating pool considering dating sites are notoriously unfriendly towards women.

Also consider a lot of the men on dating apps are married men looking for a casual fling. In Nigeria, most single lonely girls spend their time in religious crusade grounds praying for a life partner.

This should not be interpreted to mean there are not a lot of single lonely men but their parameters for arriving at this conclusion in inaccurate

This is a non-compete clause. Part of its function is to ensure you do not take their customers or disclose sensitive information to competitors when you leave.

Organizations rarely enforce this strictly.

Give them ur School Mgt Phone numbers for them to call and confirm.
Except it is a private school, I doubt the staff will be willing to confirm anybody within 2 phone calls.

A proactive solution will be to get a letter headed and stamped letter from HOD, Dean, an important office in your school with the authority to speak to your current academic standing.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Business Owners, Whats Your Experience With Bad Staff by Eminado1: 7:59pm On Mar 30, 2022
Someone once said that in looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence abd hardworking. If you do not have the first quality, the other two will kill you. You think about it; its true. If you hire someone without integrity, you really want them to be dumb and lazy.

I am not negating the other two traits as deemed of lesser importance. You absolutely need intelligence in a knowledge economy. Hardwork is the fuel that propels passion and motivation.

But integrity is non-negotiable.

BusinessRe: A Customer Blocked Me After Making An Order by Eminado1: 12:32pm On Feb 07, 2022
The vendor does not trust the customer to pay after delivery.

The customer does not trust the vendor to supply if payment is made before delivery.

I postulate that the level of trust in a country is directly proportional to economic development.
