Ogegod87: @op, thanks 4 topic. i've actually tot about startin a thread lyk dis, especially about d ongoin hyundai ix3. i mean, r dey 4 real? has anyone won it yet?

Two weeks ago on my way home, I saw someone driving d Hyundai car painted in MTN colour without plate no, don't know if it was one of the 'phantom' winners or na one of MTN Ogas dey drive am to convince us that such 'blessings' do exist

I am still trying to understand how the egg heads in MTN came about this new wuru-wuru. Like someone posted, they certainly know that some nigerians will certainly fall for this and when u try to calculate what they are likely going to make from this, considering their customer base, it's mind boggling. And I wonder what percentage goes to the top 'ogas' at NCC

When I saw this advert on the front page of a national newspaper, I couldn't help but laugh. If MTN has so much money as to give out a brand new plane, then there should be enough to take care of the network problems we are experiencing at the moment.

Come to think of it, how many of these (previous) prize winners has anyone, on Nairaland, seen? Or has anyone on Nairaland won anything from any of the network providers, apart from the occasional free credit? Please share your story

Got this from a job site I subscribed to:
Fidelity Bank is recruiting and u can send ur CV to:
careers@fidelitybankplc.com and for those of u in Lagos, u can drop it by hand@2, Kofo Abayomi street, Victoria Island.

Also Citibank (but requires BSc 2.1), walk in and drop ur CV@27, Kofo Abayomi street, Victoria Island
However, when contacted, Citibank Customer Service disclaimed the advert but added that 'nothing stops anybody from submitting his/her CV to the bank'. With this, it will be wise for those outside Lagos to get someone living there to help them with their CV submission

I hope this helps someone out there

It doesn't matter who is more beautiful or handsome, the most important thing is they love each other just the way they are and are willing to make things work. No one is ever perfect. The so called 'ugly' girl cud just turn out to b a great wife n a wonderful mother, and I believe that'd make Teju a contented husband. I wish them the very best!

I was a bit surprised and of cos proud, when I heard Dbanj's Oliver Twist being played during d break in a table tennis match btw Hong Kong and China, early this morning, in the on-going Olympics. D koko master has really done alot for himself

If u are an OND holder in Building Technology/Civil Engineering looking for where to undertake ur industrial training, or u have completed the IT programme but looking for where to work till u go back for ur HND, and u live in Abuja, do give me a call on 08033793941. A friend of mine has such space available in his construction firm.

Pls, i need help. An iPhone 3g was sent to me from Australia and I have been trying to download some songs using iTunes, but I have to register an apple I'd with my credit card. Is it possible to use my GT Bank card? Thank

andyanders: My broda, don't mind people discouraging you now by telling you nonsense over what they do not have an idea of.
Forget people discouraging you by telling you that you needed 2.3 million or 11 million or that you needed to rent another house again.

Listen, depending the area you want the house, you can build your house with anything God put in your hands.
Block is not a house and also a house. If you have 12,000 naira, you can get 100 blocks and with 120,000, you get 1,000 blocks.
If you have that, start your house and work towards arranging up to 3,000 blocks which can give you good 2 bedrooms with 3 toilets in-suite.that amounts to 360,000. Buy your cement and get an experienced bricklayer and do not involve all these so called contractor as they will eat you dry.
If I have your number, I will call and advise you of what you can do and please, forget about those telling you that you spend millions to build house.
When you are talking about spending money, that becomes any individual's choice of the kind of fittings he wants in terms of roofing, and other kind of building materials. You can get toilet sinks of your choice,
Let me not continue because we love discouraging people. I had similar experience when my landlord increased my rent and I took the bull by its horns by taking drastic measure and it paid. I bought a land and it took me 3 months to develop a 4 bedroom apartment with 5 toilets and a 2 BQ. Now for a space of 4 yrs, I have built by myself a block of 4 flats rented out to people.

You can do same with nothing. Just have hope in God and move ahead. Most faceless people come on here to claim what they dont have and also even live in a slump claiming they have duplex and built their houses with billions. Forget them.

@andyanders, that's a very good advice. Pls, do let me have ur email address so that i can send u my fone no for us to talk more on the fone or u can send urs to my email add: gsmmayakis@yahoo.com. Thanks man!!

THIS IS CREATIVITY AT ITS BEST! I HOPE U DONT MIND ME POSTING IT ON MY FB WALL.

@Spyder880, if ur client hasnt made up his mind, yet, there are some really nice ones here in Abuja, especially in the estate i am working, that i can take some shots of and send to u, if that's ok. u guys are doing a wonderful job in here. KEEP IT UP!!!!

i am a little confused here cos i woke up one day and nairalist.com was 'dead'!!!! The properties section used to be an avenue where people meet and share what they have to rent/sell/buy. The properties section here (Nairaland) is quite comprehensive, but not specific enough. U come on and u dont know what is on for Abuja, where i live. I think the site shud be returned

@SuyaEater, it truly depends on ur taste. u could buy and remodify it, but due to flexibility, i'd suggest building from the scratch that's if the person has the capital for such

mens dept:
All I know is we can do better with those kits. May not necessarily decide if we win or lose, but since the 90's, our kits suck.

so what do u suggest? i think we had some good ones in France '98

Fellow members, i am a bit confused here and i need help. I have been hearing in so many quarters, even from U-20 coach John Obuh, that the reason why the team lost to France, was because the players wore white instead of green and, i am wondering, are we just being superstitious or there is more to it?, What do u all think?

@ese1985, i am building a 4 bedroom duplex here in Abuja and the estimate is about N20m. Like most people have posted in here, it'll really depend mostly on the nature of the soil, the area the site is situated, access to site, ur taste, the time u want it completed and so many other factors
