It helps because it is a unique identification system that will be used to identify terrorists, trace the flow of terror funds and, money laundering.

Y do U think the UK and the US have not employed this system??

M4gunners:
And what of people not living right now in Nigeria?I only heard they have open a centre where those living in UK and US are doing theirs, what of people living in central Europe? Can anyone help me with how to go about it?I am not ready to sacrifice any money to bank o.

I was at the OIS Services office on Monday at Fleet Street, Central London and they told everyone there that the deadline for Bank customer livining abroad has been extended to December 31st and on their website http://oisservices.com/bvn.php, they are still Accepting appointment as it is now and in fact the appointment I made 2 weeks ago is scheduled for 20th of November . I asked 2 of their staffs out there and they both told me the same thing.

To call someone "rude" is not insulting?
...... or are you the one he insulted?
.... moreso when the matter is already dying-down between the parties involved!

Half-baked Nitwit.

Bennyberry:
so those who used malpractice in their O level should be admitted abi?. Having A's in ur O'level in nigeria does not necessarily mean you are intelligent most times it based on Runs and the quality of schools, america is america. And nigeria is nigeria.

So U seriously think there aren't no malpractice in the UK and US? Did education not come from there?are we not copying them still?

efilefun:
See this He-Goat, this are the kinda people who worship USA with the whole of their soul, Some people wey never comot their papa house would come online to tell us how this and that is, visit the country and see how they enjoy all basic amenities without having a tangible natural resources. I am pretty sure you don't know their population is about X10 of nigeria if not more than that. The whole of Nigeria would turn into dust bin with that kinda of population

From your point I think we should be helping India

Donfamous:
exactly bro, I wonder how prospective students will gain admission without jamb, especially those from not well to do family.
in fact I prefer jamb to Putme

There should be no exams student should be admitted via their scores in the O level like the EU and America

mrwiddy:

Gerrout my friend, you dont need to cry more than the bereaved!

Those two have already called it quits on the matter and here you are trying to inflame matters.. or did he ask you to come to his defense?

There is a way to "intervene" in a matter without "brazenly" taking sides ...or causing more conflagration.

Relax O.

My Observation Lately

I have to apologize in advance to all our Babas in this property section that started this storm of knowledge sharing on here. I notice that prices are no longer documented as it was when the revolution began. Did i miss something or did the house decided to be discreet about true cost of items and project? It will be sad if we have decided to return to secrecy on this forum.

That part was the Ginger for me ooo.

Not at all oh.you just need to ask for specific info re cost.some of the builds here are owned by People of this forum and sometimes prefer to be descrete. However u can always ask unit cost of an item be it Y16 or trip of sand or granite. Even labour cost. From the builder not the client.
P's sorry for typos.it's my phone.

EgunMogaji:
So when I started my land search with my Real Estate Lawyer (it's best to start here in case it ends up in litigation, at least that was my thought process) I gave him about three must haves.

1) Hilly Terrain that offers views and places the house in airflow
2) Close to but not next to a river/stream - I was still more naive then
3) 3 to 5 years from active development

He of course thought I was stark crazy but I got every single wish on my list.

I have the hills with a view and I paying for it by needing up to 300 tons of laterite but man, standing on the top of the foundation you can hardly hold up a the building plan because it gets blown out of your hand by wind - schweeeet.

I have to cross a stream/river to get to my site. Far enough but also close enough to offer greenery and wildlife that doesn't depend on humans to nurture them. I can't wait to see what kind of fish I'll be pulling out of that sucker

I counsel people that they get to live the life that they wish for so I have to live by example.

Chei nah a won village u just describe so

adeekiti:
We seem to take pictures of foreign designs and we don't consider the Nigeria maintainance system, if we have a sliding window and swing on one frame, how long do u think it can last with the way we use things in Nigeria, it can be beautifully made, but do we ask ourselves, how many times we open our windows, how many people can take precautions to maintain them..

If you go by that thought let me also ask.how many times do U think it's opened in the west where windows are such a big part of the house design plus there are no protector nor nets.

befto:
Why dont you face your lane.

If you dont understand what's going then please stick to your laws and courts.

Our courts are here and yours is where ever you are.

Are you a lawyer?

I think that's very rude for yoy to come on his post n disrespect him in such fashion all he did was trying to advice us.

I must confess... this is good idea doing this excavation at this time. See sand for filling at my finger tip. Due to the highly compacted nature of this soil formation, the volume of sand that comes out of every cubic meter dug is far above one cubic meter..... "This ground dey vomit sand o" that's how my boy describes this scenario.
Bottom line is we will have more than enough sand for filling and save me some good money

Good idea to save cost of materials

Hello Nlders,

I'm an ardent reader and follower of this great forum.
So,I had to create this acct for personal reasons.

To avoid lengthy episodes permit me to keep it simple by going straight to the point. Thanks

As a young lady who's in her early 20s I find it extremely difficult to love a guy not to talk about being in a relationship with one.

There is this guy who can't just help but to love me passionately. We've been together for 9yrs now but who would believe we had sex just once? YES! Just once after enough fighting and struggling.
Sometimes,I had to lock myself inside to weep cuz it's painful and it hurts! Why can't I have normal sex like any other lady out there?

I just detest having sex with a guy and it's as a result of this that I've lost most of my relationships. This stuff is making me sick cuz I want to enjoy sex with a man like any other lady.

THE MAJOR PROBLEM IS THAT AM "BIsexual" but a larger part of me hungers for same sex

And the ladies are not even helping matters cuz they also yearn for me every now and then.,
,
I've tried hanging out with some cool guyz even to the extent of doing stuff with them YET! Nothing positive came out.

Presently,am dating a banker and believe me every other thing is perfectly in order EXCEPT the issue of sex.

Am worried cuz I know exactly what it means for someone you love so dearly to deny you of something.

I've prayed
I've also cried my eyes out
I've even gone for counselling @least to ameloriate this kind of lifestyle YET! Things are still the same.
Someone should pls tell me what else to do...

Lalasticlala

Early 20 n in relationship for 9 years.so I take it U r approximately 25 years old minus 9 means U started approximately 16 ??that's if he was the first.

erico2k2, the both equipment are mine but you could get a mixer in PH at about 15k per day while the poker goes for 10k per day.... operator pay inclusive.
Labour in this type of concrete work goes for 800naira per every bag of cement used... it's better paying per bag as it's puts seriousness into the workmen

thanks a lot

Nigeria is not big enough to be split into 5 countries. 3 will do but 2 is better. Remember, not all dreams come to pass. Prophets saw dreams and visions of Jonathan winning the 2015 presidential election, but it all failed.

Ever heard of a country called SLovenia? google the population, its 2M

So what is he giving her husband money for?

If it is to pay part of the bills, then there is nothing wrong. If the husband can give the wife money, why can't the wife give her husband money?

Well I wish most women reason like this.

Answers do not need to be biographical. The range of human activities is infinite and so you cannot have laws banning things in detail for every activity . Rather laws tend to be general in their wording and sometimes laws have to be tested in courts That is the nature of jurisprudence . In this case without detailed knowledge of the particulars one's comments can be generic only. The issue is not just the possession of the cards but the intent for their possession

The alleged offence here is in Nigeria so your odysseys into Heathrow are interesting but are not really helpful in understanding the issues here. This is not a matter of airport rules but whether the intent was to subvert extant currency regulations and whether full disclosures were made. We shall have to wait for the courts to pronounce ,since he has been arrested. It is the case that guilt has to be proven for EVERY alleged offence so nothing special in this instance. What seems certain is any person travelling through a Nigerian airport with cards not bearing their name can expect to be arrested and hopefully then can provide a satisfactory defence/explanation
This is quite common. Another crucial question is whether the status of the card is Prepaid which I believe many Nigerian VISA cards . IF That is the case then they are treated as similar to Travellers Cheques ie Monetary instruments and declarable.

It clearly states Debit cards.

Oga Befto

YES BRABUS did all this shoddy work. And I challenge him to come here to deny it !!
Defrauded me in the process and hence why he wanted to bribe my security with 10k to steal materials.
The fact that he comes online to offer advice and act like a subject matter expert despite no building qualifications but the qualification of a scam artist.

I am compiling a dossier of all other terrible work that he did and they will henceforth follow him on the digital world, the accomplice who defrauded me with fake building approval, I am putting final touches to dealing with him as well. I am not letting this GO.

I don't want to mention names oh but if anybody did that in my house he/she will refund my labour cost or else,Im going to my village priest,the Igwe must hear about it

omonnakoda:
The issue is not carrying the card that was not my question So I assume you don't know

the issue is is there a duty to declare ? Different countries have different rules e.g the US rule is "MONETARY INSTRUMENT" but that would vary from place to place. The status of a prepaid debit card has been subject to arguments lately
http://www.creditcards.com/credit-card-news/prepaid-rules-border-laundering-terrorist-1282.php
Well he has been arrested and so if charged the courts will determine whether the actions are lawful.

The situation in an airport these days is governed by all kinds of laws that cover not only false or incomplete declarations relating to financial but also to security domains,disease control and so Drug enforcement and other bodies have great powers to question and receive full declaration regarding itinerary,purpose of travel ,occupation,immunization and financial status ie possession of monetary instruments etc if the declaration form requires this information and it is not provided a crime may have been committed.
The issue is further complicated by the fact that there is legislation that empowers the CBN of Nigeria to limit the currency that an individual may use on a daily basis while abroad and an attempt to circumvent that MAY be unlawful of course these things sometimes need to be tested in court

1st when there is no law banning a certain action or thing it means its not illegal(hence there is no citation,it has not been taken to court)Im not a lawyer but what I do for work requires me to quote certain parts of the laws of the land each time I speak to a MOP

2nd Talking about Airports rules etc, I happen to go fru heathrow and Frankfort PHC 3 times yearly the monitory declaration requirements are almost the same thing,you are asked to declare anything above certain amount, in the Uk its £10000 or anything in gold silver etc to its equivalent, now you cannot quantify a credit,debit or prepaid card, even if its Amex card.Its true value wont be know.Like i said earlier, i have up to 12 cards to my name, I have never been asked to declare them in teh whole or Europe to America to Nigeria.Nothing in the landing form requires one todo so.At this point telling me I don't know dnt cut the cake these requirements just do not exist, statutory or not.The Onus is on the law enforcement Aegents to prove an offence has been committed if not they should be let to go about their Biz.

jaybee:
And where did it state the cards where not cloned? Are you the only expert card criminal that has monopoly on the criminal use of atm cards?

There is no need to try to be clever,I asked a question instead of you responding to that simple question U are coming up with the caged attitude.Calling me criminal was uncalled for I won't bring myself to this level of argument, its meant for kids.

omonnakoda:
Circumventing a regulation is legal?
In this case I do not know whether a crime was committed but I believe there is enough reasoon to arrest and then a determination of whether to charge him to court and then the courts can determine whether a crime was committed.

With regard to regulations . I think it is important to understand what is a "regulation". The government has powers to make laws to give statutory bodies the power to make regulations without additional legislation

examples


authority empowered to set speed limits,parking limits etc
authority empowered to ban items for import etc
authority (in this case) empowered to make regulations about currency
The issue here is CURRENCY not just cash.

authority empowered to declare quarantine etc

Breaching any of these regulations is NOT LEGAL and may even be criminal



What I find striking is your tendency to assert opinions very forcefully without any buttress or intellectual humility. Indeed empty barrels are raucous.

Learn to be humble that is the mark of a true intellectual the converse is equally true

What is the use of a certain regulation when its not made know to the public,even the speed limits U mentioned in the Uk thats contained in an act same as local govt B laws.statutury as the name implies has its own guidlines to which such body must operate
I shall give a simple example, in the Uk we have an act or parliament called the TMA 204(traffic management act)I wil use the single yellow line as an example.It simply says no parking however its up to the LGA to state the amount of time U can park on one, The city of westminster says zero time, but Camden says five.The TMA clearly states that the local authority must display a yellow time plate to advice drivers of waht times these lines are enforceable and also the amount of time they are allowed to stay on their website.

omonnakoda:
Based on what ? That is my question legislation ,regulation which you can cite or your opinion

there no citable legislature that prohibits the carrying of more than one ATM card.
