Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by emmyN(m): 1:10pm On May 21, 2021
Olobojay:
Why do people often say that Mercedes Benz cars are expensive to maintain. I intend to get one but keep getting this talk of difficult maintenance
It stems from the lack of maintenance culture especially by Nigerians. Everyone wants a car they can overuse and abuse without completely breaking down. The irony is that the cars they opt for break down even more frequently. Engines are now a part of car's consumables.

Pearl1910:
But that means VIN too is irrelevant when engine has been changed because vehicle history reports pick mileage on the dash while new engine in the car may have a far less actual mileage.

Also, mileage can be rolled back from overseas o.
The mileage of a vehicle is attached to the entire body and not just the engine. It's illegal in the US to reset mileage when you have an engine change.

Car TalkRe: Fuel Consumption And Car Maintanance by emmyN(m): 5:44pm On May 19, 2021
Are you inquiring about fuel or oil? Only a faulty car would consume oil. If it was fuel you meant, then yes, regardless of whether you are using an I4, V6, or V8, a car would consume less fuel when moving on the highway at top speed.

Nigerians and fuel micromanaging sha cheesy. Go and buy steering wheel lock and install a tracker in that your car. Don't forget to comprehensively insure it like that gala seller up there suggested. Buy a BP monitor too cheesy.

RomanceRe: Upcoming Wedding Palava by emmyN(m): 3:06pm On May 18, 2021
Annoms:
I'll try to make this short.

Yesterday I was having a conversation with my fiancée about my mum's suggestion about how to go about our wedding which is scheduled to take place Jan next year. My mum suggested that we do both trad and white wedding on the same day to cut cost. She opined that we do the white wedding in the morning and hold the traditional marriage as a reception in the afternoon. I pretty much see reasons from her perspective considering the harsh economic condition in Nigeria.

I was relating this to my fiancée yesterday in a phone call, when she flared up and said I should have consulted her to seek her opinion on this marriage arrangement before going to my family to seek theirs because I said my mum's advise seems okay.

What I deduce from her plight was that she wants the trad marriage at the village (south-east) while the white at the town where we base (South-West). That was what I initially wanted but due to high inflation in the land, I'm actually tilting towards my mum advise because I can't go bankruptcy just because I want to satisfy her. Why not use a stone to kill two birds?

She wants a cream-de-la-cream kind of wedding but she's not ready to assist financially to make that happen. (she's an awaiting corper)

I told her that the cost of transportation and lodging people from the village (hers and mine) to the city for our white marriage alone is gulping about 500/600k. That's transportation & lodging alone ooo.. I'll now spend if not x2 of what I spent on trad for white.. Why not just do everything in the village and move on with our lives? We can actually have it in the village and it will still be all nice and glamourous.

She said she wants to have a say in how her marriage will look like. Her imput is welcomed. But if she still insist on having the white wedding and not putting finances into consideration. I'm thinking that she want the white wedding on the city because of her friends who will attend which is not enough reason to go bankruptcy for.

It was a heated argument yesterday. We both went to bed angrily and not in talking terms till now

Pls advice accordingly. Thanks
Do not allow anyone here vilify your woman to you. It was the way you presented the issue that generated this rancour. From what you typed, you can afford to have two separate ceremonies like your wife wanted, you just feel the need to save. Find other areas to cut cost. For instance lodging village people because of your wedding is unnecessary. Who nor fit afford to come on e own, make e stay village.

It's a joint ownership? Then you know what to do. Always be assertive and quick to voice out your objections. Never make unnecessary compromise. Your not being comfortable being around strangers is a result of your introversion. You are shy and timid; shake it off. But telling you that your presence is disturbing her guest in any way is a no no; tell her off!

It's high time these stupid threads stopped gracing front page. You have your God given brains and intuition to know that if you didn't apply for a job, there is no way you would be getting an interview invite. At least Google is there to make a research on the company. If it isn't there, then it's mostly not worth it, and most likely fake. Make una nor dey disturb us here angry.

CrimeRe: We Will Keep Baba Ijesha Until JUSUN Resumes, Police Tell Protesters by emmyN(m): 9:58am On May 13, 2021
9jaRealist:
That determination is made RETROSPECTIVELY...
If there’s a court available to “pronounce” it, it would not be required in cases like these.

We have to confine this discourse to the PARTICULAR case at hand...
There are DIFFERENT cases where courts are available, but the police would ask for more time to charge.

Let’s stick to the peculiar facts of THIS case!
>
There is nothing peculiar about the case. You are making non-existent excuses. The CP already said the offence is bailable, and he is right according to the constitution.
CrimeRe: We Will Keep Baba Ijesha Until JUSUN Resumes, Police Tell Protesters by emmyN(m): 9:40am On May 13, 2021
9jaRealist:
Even for a bailable offense, bail is NOT as of right...

Nonetheless, what the Constitution actually provides is that a suspect be informed of his alleged offense within 24 hours in a writing and language he understands (Section 35(2) of the Constitution), and that such a suspect must be brought before a court “within a reasonable time” (Section 35(4)). The Constitution thereafter defines “a reasonable time” as 24 hours, 48 hours or (BEYOND the otherwise mandated 24 and 48 hours) ”such longer period as in the circumstances may be considered by the court to be reasonable” (Section 35(5)(b)). Given that the ongoing JUSUN strike has rendered the courts currently non-functional and therefore Baba Ijesha cannot be presently arraigned before a court of law, it would be deemed “reasonable”, and therefore CONSTITUTIONAL under the provision of Section 34(5)(b), to continue to detain him until the regular re-opening of the courts.

In the interim, any consideration on whether he would be granted an administrative (police) bail would depend on the peculiar circumstances of the case, including whether he poses a flight risk or would likely jeopardize the investigations or case (such as by harassing or intimidating witnesses, etc,). Personally, I think he is presently exactly where he belongs - until a court of law decides otherwise.
>
Charge and bail lawyer, na so una dey confuse client cheesy. From that section you quoted it can be obviously inferred that only the Judiciary has the power to set a "reasonable time" longer than 48 hours. Since 48 hours have elapsed and no court has sat to set that reasonable time, it's therefore beyond the powers of the Police to keep him in detention. Their limit stops at 48 hours.
