jmaine:
So how do we get such rogues.. Like do it yourself tips in not falling into this trap?

1st thiing you do is google that make and find location of the VIN, once you know it, go to the car snap the VIN and do physical check, go away and run a VIN check, then the true situation will come to light then make a deccission on waht you see.

obekediamondfuto:
nairaland is getting pretty hot oh

Yes, these are the reasons I stopped selling cars, you have to be bad to make money cos of these scammers.I sold my last car on here 2014 I think, for N1,050,000.000, landing price was N900k, 2001 camry.after 8 months sitting.So it was a waste of time and investment,I will only do pre order if i venture back again,cos the cost of clean cars are unspeakable since these scammers sell dead cars as great cars for great price.

bjt:
Thanks explorer for bringing this up. It is not only on nairaland that this is happening but in Nigeria as a whole. I will advice every potential buyer to do a background check before buying any vehicle. Imagine a situation where the airbag should deploy and safe someone's life and did not because it was not replaced after the previous accident. I did a background check on a vehicle only to discovered it was reported stolen in the US. Some will even rollover upto 100k miles on the odometer. Nigerians and greed

yep very true, I just saved a middle man on here loads of headache cos the car he posted with Uk number plate had
1 Finance on it
2 Showing still used in the Uk
3 Still Insured in the Uk
4 was a RHD but in 9ja its a LHD and this nor B moi moi car,2015 Range rover sport.
he took my advice and deleted the post,cos one chk by Uk police 9ja police will come,we know how their matter B.

ApexTitan:
It's funny how everyone has forgotten all the UK bashing that went on in the early pages of this thread.

Comments like this that were explicit
The Uk is a complete waste of public space especially for african migrants if you ask me..

or the implied ones by many, even the OP (who is now claiming to perform a public service), that the UK somehow deceived them into studying there.

Many people also imagine that the only reason why one would go for a masters degree overseas is to relocate. That may be true to some extent but not completely. If it were the UK would not be the #2 top destination for international students.

Exactly and when you xpose their ignorance they go on the offenssive then try to send you a PM.I dnt k now why they dont bash Ghana as well cos I heard they go there to school as well ahahaha

Don't forget might that I used... we all learn daily.

Delta007:
No offence but you are all over the map. On this thread, you have gone from aruging against the OP's perspective to basically validating his/her point. Now you are explaining immigration laws. I'm not sure I quite understand your perspective. Perhaps you can educate me. And yes, everybody is (or should be) familiar with what is on the visa forms. And yes, every country has similar language/concepts for non-immigrant visas.

ALl I wrote up there was a direct responce to this statement made by you.

UK immigration laws currently provide limited (or no) levers/options that a foreign grad can exercise
This is false.Its clearly stated.
Do not 4get the school are not the Home office.Their role here is to provide you admission which you take and add to your Visa application.(Hence U can still be refused entry VISA)
Im not saying the OP is entirely wrong, but this is a case of over exagaration and killing a fly with a sledge harmmer.The fact that I studied and got a JOB here is a litttle give away as to what Planning is needed to arrange oneself to get work here.
Now It is mind buggling how no one here has asked what planning we are talking about and how to go about securing a JOB after we spend that much.

GAZZUZZ:
He has has said nothing to help a buyer select a good engine, but prefers a private arrangement to sell an engine, also he is yet to give a specific address.


he might have good intentions, but I will prefer Nairalanders deal with individuals who have specific verifiable addresses, and know their trade.

ladipo is a jungle, people get burnt every day there.

newman10:
Gurus in the house pls help. My Toyota Camry 2005 gives this error code after scanning. Is it something I should worry about? What's really the problem here? Many thanks.

P0016

yes cos soon your car will go into Limp mode!

newman10:
P006

I have same problem with my Car at the moment. Mine a BMW though the E46,there are three sensors to this, am and crank shaft positioning sensors.

legalwealth:
Hahahaha!

It was that oil that I saw readily available and trusted at the moment I wanted to service it for the first time. I wanted to change to recommended one early enough but I couldn't see trusted and readily available ones so I sticked to the one I've been using. I was even ready to part away with any amount to get the quality one of the recommended oil but there was no headway.

Don't as well forget that you can't compare abroad's weather condition with ours. Hence, my choice of oil might be working fine in Nigeria it has been; I've travelled long journeys severally without any form of breakdown.

I was Enjoying your post until you said the bolded. If you have been following up, you would have learnt weather conditions btw 9ja and where the car was produced has little or no effect, car is tested on all conditions, so the fact 9ja is Hot is a plus. Texas and fresco can be hotter than 9ja x2

KwoiZabo:
I know Dasuki's trial is deliberately delayed because he is AbQki. Once again I pity all those from SouthSouth that did not support GEJ.

Nah cos they have published what he never said and don't want him to come to the same public to say he did not say such, last time they tried it, he said he cant remember , since then, the have stopped the dansuki says this Dansuki says that

Safiaaa:
Lol. Maybe it’s because I live outside London so its bad for me.

Save some pepper soup for me ohh

AH me Im going Old Kent Rd, this weather deserve hot pepper.Ok will keep two plates 4 U!

Delta007:
Fair enough, but this is simplistic at best. However, I believe that the argument is that the UK immigration laws currently provide limited (or no) levers/options that a foreign grad can exercise; so going to the UK as a foreign student is not the best deal given other options out there.

The stats show that over 90% (I believe the number I saw was 97%) of foreign students (not just Nigerian students) leave the UK after their studies. Compare that to the retention rates in the US or Canada. Isn't this the crux of this thread, no?

How is this SO? It clearly states you are meant to go Home after your study on the FORMS, how much clearer could this be?
The bit about planning has to do with having a plan A,B and C.
If you came here with your own money I'm sure you will plan these, but if you where sponsored by parents or org then you might be a wee relaxed!

Safiaaa:
Im fed up. I’m stuck in the hou ;Dse because I can’t do anything

well it aint that bad, roads are gritted.my street has a slope and its one way, but its all good, snow or no snow, I'm going south London to go drink that pepper soup

Safiaaa:

Apparently, its going to continue till midnight now this one !

Safiaaa:

topfally75:

please I need best advice and options to make the car back on road. thankx

You will need another blank and would be coded .

Safiaaa:
That’s wonderful. Where do you reside?

Somewhere in North London

Safiaaa:
ok ohh

But nah true nah,the cold here dey make women brain correct but in 9ja everywhere is HOT and man's not Hot .
Marriage is the most u predictable institution in the whole world but there is blessing in marriage I can attest to that . I GAINED more when married than when single but . I married my best friend we dont have rules . We just do it.

Safiaaa:
If you’re not doing your job as a husband to provide fully for me, yet expect me to cook clean and help you with the bills, I have the right to be separated ted from you. I have the right to find someone else who will make my life stress free. Same way if the woman is not doing her wifely duties, realistically what do men do? Be real with yourself. People always taking about morals, not realising that whether indirectly or directly womanhood has a price. We are all hypocrites.

Listen. All I’m saying is, if it’s 50/50, play your role significantly. I may still end up doing more house chores but play your role significantly.Help me to Cook,clean,take care of the kids and I will also help you out financially. If you want to take care of all the finances and my needs, then I will do the rest. There will always be minor exceptions but let the roles be finalised.

Who does 50/50 in Nigeria ?
In the west yes they do but that's a different society . Nigeria ni equal responsibility btw husband and wife

bukatyne:
Funny you.

If she is a liability to you financially, you are a liability to her domestically except you do chores with her.

You got it wrong there. Domestics could be deligated in the form of hiring a maid . These days 2018 a woman who has nothing to offer other than the inbtw of her legs has tough times ahead .

bukatyne:
Dreams come true.

Well my Dad did it.
I'm doing it so sons will do too .
It's nothing like dream . You work 2wards it cos hard and honest work does pay

Safiaaa:
Really? What Nigerian guy in this generation wants to be responsible for all the bills and finances in the house?

Haba come on
In Nigeria the Man pays all primary bills .
The wife can support when it comes to secondary .
That's Nigeria .

pcguru1:
I said in Nigeria, and i also said economically speaking, and I also mentioned it's not a problem for some ( High Economic power ), Nigerians standard of living is lower than in advance countries and notice i also said it is very possible outside Nigeria. Also what happens when the husband loses his job, does that the mean the marriage is over ?

Tbh some aspect of living in Nigeria is on the high side compared to the west . If we where to have electricity 24/7
We will pay more .
Healthcare , security etc

Safiaaa:
okay you didn’t answer my question. But okay

Well if you read n understood my response therr would have been ni need for them questions
But if you insist I will
Financial fulfilment is not just giving money to one's wife rather set her up .
Now as regards house chores .
You do not xpect a house with kids to be spotless .
Therr are certain things I do arround my house I call Man program and I enjoy doing them .
The major house chore is cooking and cleaning . .
Cleaning can be halved if one invest in washing machine and a generator . .
Now cooking. If one's wife cannot cook or complain that it's too stressful to cook ahhh wahala dey ohh .
In my book cooking is a responsibly rather than a daily chore

dominique:
Not everybody subscribes to this rubbish slave trade practice called bride price biko. Nobody paid kobo on my head and nobody will pay one naira on my daughter's head. That you paid money to marry a woman now means you should turn her into your servant right? Left to me, this useless bride price culture would have been scrapped since last century. How can you put a price tag on a human being in the name of culture and tradition?

U r obviously a er young person . If not yoy would realize bride prize is a symbol rather cost

LushGreenz:
Is marriage even worth all the trouble nowadays

It all depends on your own definition of marriage
