You people should also stop opening businesses at where you are known and if you need to do that, make sure you put strangers that won't smile with your friends and family when patronizing.

Some people are naturally Onigbese

E be like say your dealer gave you something extra potent for typing this nonsense smh

Shedrack777:
This Isaac fayose is a big fool. Don't he knows that it's not about the cows, but about the terrorist behind the cows

How is he a big fool? Are cows supposed to be roaming around a metropolitan city like Abuja?

So if they can't curtail the excesses of the Fulani herders or the owners of the cows, then what's the essence of allocating billions of naira for security votes?

PheelzAlmighty:
Is your husband not a handbag

Allow them..... It's their headache not yours

When e reach your turn don't love your partner conditionally....

If dem show APC their own bad roads in other states, dem go come talk say na propaganda lol

Nigeria is a funny county

Zamfara is an APC state, Oyo is an APM state

The outcry is noticeable lol

You see these poor and vulnerable folks…. They are top contributors of us having bad leadership in this country.

They are easily swayed with material things as little as a cup of garri…. That’s why Politicians will never allow you as a poor man get hands on money or a good paying job.

Sometimes I have no pity for their predicament

Sccarrr:

YoungBlackRico:

LMAO you Dey mind them….. dem no say Israel no Dey look person face, dem go bomb all civilians join body…

America had to tell them to stay out while trying to negotiate for peace, but it failed.

Israelites Dey pray make small debris enter their space lol

Sccarrr:
Iran too proved all that AMERICA can crush any country in matter of days na only in movies

USA can do that but they are not callous like Iran that don’t mind involving the death of civilians…….

USA get conscience and consequences for their military for any silly mistakes.

That’s why Iran get mouth to Dey talk and complain on their media.

Come back home to collect 500k change every month? lol coupled with insecurity and decaying infrastructure? You try lol

Icey419:
I dislike the operations of the Nurtw but putting a ban on them is harsh to say. It's just like saying you ban NLC state chapter from conducting its activities in your state. Remember, every state civil servants fall under this union umbrella

But NLC is not causing security tension in the state….

seunmsg:
The governor has no constitutional power to ban a trade Union. This has been litigated severally and settled. The only thing the governor can do is ban NURTW from state owned motor parks. Apart from that, you can’t proscribe the Union in the state or stop citizens from joining or participating in the activities of the union.

How much did you sell your soul to APC?

CaseSensitive:
Britain is ready to defend itself? With what?

Because you are used to seeing them on horses and carriages doesn’t mean UK does not wield top military asset with stockpile of Nuclear weapons.

UK is not a country you wanna toy with….. Because they are not active in warfare in recent times doesn’t make them a sissy

NwokoloOwa:
US its just a bully.

Its just a stupid war. I dont believe Iran can use nuclear weapons on any one if we all maintain. Even North Korea with their crazy leadership, they have never used their nuclear weapons on anybody.

It's only this same America that has used nuclear bomb on others. Only them policing others no to have. But they went ahead and used on others.

Very difficult to understand.

It’s not a stupid war…. What if those terrorist lay their hands on nuclear weapon what do you think will
Happen?

If Boko Haram has access to nuclear weapons, what do you think will happen to your country?

Forgiveness ke? Na Forgiveness to cough out the money for replacement?

QuinQQ:
Really sad. And it is now too late to reverse because we have even forgotten how to make these things. Infact we have even forgotten we used to make them oursellves!

Bro Akwa Ibom had Paper Mil, Sunshine Battery company, Qua Steel, Plastocrown, ALSCON, Abestonit, Akwa Palms, Greenwell fertilizer blending plant, St Gabriel coconut oil refinery, Lion Plywood and Timber industry, Jubillee Syringe company, Ibom metering solution factory etc

All gone!!! Not working… even the Flour mill not working

QuinQQ:
Exactly. When this company started in 1974 there was no China in ceramics. By 2000's when they closed see position of China above - 82% imported from China!

It’s getting sadder that we now import 100% of items we use here from China

Even Akwa Ibom had Qua Ceremics at Itu where they produced Water Cistern, Porcelain cups, flower vase and other ceramic items….

But the company died early 2000 and no government has even made attempt to revive dead companies in Akwa Ibom state.

It’s very funny that most of these companies were built during the military era

We have lot of dead companies in Akwa Ibom and the governor is concentrating on aesthetics

SixSeven:
Exactly what came to my mind. I am just surprised by the OP saying the 1993 person is that old


Nigergrob Ceramics Limited was a notable ceramic manufacturing industry located in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria. Established in the 1980s, the company became the subject of major Nigerian corporate and legal cases, including a landmark receivership case (U.B.A. Trustees Ltd v. Nigergrob Ceramics Ltd) regarding the extent of receiver and director powers. Financial distress and that litigation eventually led to its closure, turning it into a textbook legal authority for Nigerian corporate insolvency frameworks under the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA).



Story of their death:
In the early 1980s, Nigeria was trying hard to build up its local industries. A company called Nigergrob Ceramics built a big factory in Abeokuta, Ogun State. Their plan was to make floor tiles, wall tiles, and bathroom sinks locally because the construction business was booming. To buy all their heavy machinery and set up the factory, they borrowed a huge amount of money from United Bank for Africa. The bank managed this loan through U.B.A. Trustees Limited. As security for the loan, Nigergrob signed a contract that gave the bank the right to seize the factory and all its equipment if they failed to pay the money back.


Everything started well, but the late 1980s and 1990s brought tough economic times. The national power grid became very unreliable. Ceramic factories need their ovens to run constantly, so Nigergrob had to spend a lot of money on diesel generators. At the same time, the cost of raw materials went up, and they could not find local technicians to fix their complex machines. Production stopped, and the company completely ran out of money. Since Nigergrob could not pay back its debt, U.B.A. Trustees stepped in, locked the factory gates, and hired a legal manager called a receiver to take over everything and sell it off to get the bank's money back.


The original owners and directors of Nigergrob refused to leave quietly. They took the bank to court, arguing that the bank had no right to strip them of their authority. This became a famous legal battle called U.B.A. Trustees Ltd v. Nigergrob Ceramics Ltd. The case went all the way to the Court of Appeal. The judges finally ruled that when a bank takes over a broke company, the bank's manager gets full control of the business and the assets, but the original directors still keep a few basic rights, like the power to fight the takeover in court. Sadly, while the lawyers argued for years, the expensive factory equipment just sat there and rusted. Nigergrob never reopened, and the factory in Abeokuta remains abandoned to this day.
Nigergrob Ceramics died because the bank seized their factory over unpaid debts, while severe power outages and a crashing Naira made manufacturing too expensive to survive.

Does it mean the place is still under litigation?

TheStoriesOfMan:
Yes, if you want to buy prepaid meter, go to PHCN and do it yourselves.

Stop using a proxy or third party compromised officials.

Them do me same thing for my family house. Had to call DSS officials. Traced the official, picked him up and he confessed. I later got a new prepaid.

I know I spent money to use DSS on the guy, but I am happy I taught someone a lesson never to do shady deals with me.

Those PHCN guys are something else.

And you think you were right to do this? Our DSS don turn lap dog for our country

senator2k9:
We have had reports from our clients buying fake oil from gas stations

Na wa ooo…. This is crazy even at their own gas station? This is unbelievable sha

Imagine you as a Yoghurt manufacturer till selling the same Yoghurt you are manufacturing but the fake version…. It doesn’t make sense

I think this should be basic salary not gross …. Cos it’s better to stay at home doing nothing than to receive such meagre salary

laughter25:
I need advice please, I just converted my Toyota Picnic to CNG, now am finding it difficulty to start the car in the morning, different mechanic has done different things yet no solution, I have gone to the CNG people and they said the CNG option can not affect the car starting,. I don't want to remove the CNG yet because it has reduced my weekly fuel cost .
I don't know if any one here had a similar experience?

Start your car with petrol first before switching over to CNG, if situation persist, get a good scanner and scan to find the error code

nwirinedu:
I dont know what you mean by fake lubricants, in the 90s when the refinerires were functional, lubricants was refined here, there was nothing like syntehic oil, the vehicles ran on base oil and they lasted.

The lubricants you are importing now from China are actually recycled used industrial oils, they viscocity is very low, nowonder your brand new car's engine starts smoking after 5 years.

Instead of buying lubricants from the shop, I prefer buying it from the gas station like NNPC or Total lubricants (They are 100% genuine)

IronGalaxy:
You definitely stoop low in other people's countries.. you can never sell me the rosy version of Nigeria my friend

lol so you wanna sell me South Africa like it’s the land of milk and honey?

IronGalaxy:
my guy, you can never fool me.. when you see Nigerians escape with boats en route to Europe, that not "traveling" that's running away.. clearly something in Nigeria is not working, hence the mass exodus.. sanitise it all you want..

Choose what you want to believe…. Nigeria is working and few people who are travelling out for greener pastures does not represent the entire 220 million population.

I want to let you know, we might have our own issues to deal with but Nigerians will never stoop low to loot peoples shop in crisis like this…. We’ve had our agent car vandalized at Damen Shipyard in Capetown….

Parking a car in Durban is a heavy risk, cos your car can be vandalized at any moment…. Lots of break-In and stealing by the locals

IronGalaxy:
Selling your house to finance running away to Canada is not travelling my guy...

And we all know an average Nigerian dreams of "japa", you can't be "comfortable" and dream to flee your country of birth, even risk drowning in oceans doing so..

Selling of houses is a case of 2 of 10….. Nigerians are natural migrant, it’s not a case of being comfortable or not.

IronGalaxy:
Lol...Nigerians are far more poverty stricken than South Africans..far far more.. you have no business saying this

lol…… Poverty stricken? But they can afford thousands of dollars to travel out of the country?

Poverty Stricken? But an average Nigerian has their own house….

Do not allow what you see on social media fool you…. An average Nigerian is comfortable and the issue here is that want more!!!!

KingCold:
Lets remove them white folks whom you guys worship so much and the result remain the same

So the aka black diamonds are all black South Africans? LMFAO, y’all are delusional sha…..

RandDigital:
They believe we envy their ill-gotten Maybachs. That time we're angry about the impunity and brazenness - our own rich don't behave in an appalling manner like this. Then a thief comes and calls you all sorts of names.

So you mean all Nigerians living in South Africa are into fraud? Is that how everyone is judged there? Smh

Mattswaggz:
Lol.....on international water way....you guys never seize to amaze me.

You dey mind ignorant folks that think they know stuffs on maritime affairs lol

Lol….. If he has nothing to hide, he should go to court.
