Controversy is good for his bank account

He actively courts it

He should never be taken seriously

If your family is not blessed with a lawyer

Please try and get a lawyer as a friend

And ask him to explain to you as a friend what the problem with your position is

I have seen both lawyers and non lawyers explain to you that you are wrong

But you refuse to see the wrong in your position

This is the exact same mentality that operates when a soldier is killed by a community and then the Army invades the community and destroys every living and non living thing

Law is about balancing of rights, the rights of the accused and the rights of those not accused, the rights of the criminal and the rights of non-criminals,

One of the cornerstones of the American legal system is Blackstone’s Formulation. Sometimes known as the Blackstone Ratio, it is about the balance between protecting the innocent and punishing the guilty. In the American criminal justice system, you are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

William Blackstone was an English jurist who authored commentaries on the laws of England. Blackstone lived in England from 1723 to 1780. English settlers in the American colonies took his legal theories and used them as the basis for the American legal system.

The exact quote from Sir William Blackstone is, “It is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer.”

The goal of Blackstone’s formulation is not to allow the guilty to go free. However, it ensures that the innocent are not unfairly jailed or punished.

I hope you will never immigrate to where the law is practiced in a fair manner.

By your words, you belong to the jungle. I hope and pray you remain there.

The presumption of innocence is a constitutional right

Bank toilets in Nigeria are cleaner than government hospital toilets

Bank toilets in Nigeria have a pleasant odor while government hospital toilets have a very unpleasant odor.

Let me not get started on comparing the looks of both.

IyaTola:
When you're living in a house, it's actually more of a liability. Here's why:

1. *No rental income*: Since you're occupying the house, you're not generating any rental income from it.
2. *Maintenance and expenses*: As a homeowner, you're responsible for maintenance, repairs, property taxes, and insurance, which can be significant expenses.
3. *Opportunity cost*: The money you've invested in the house could be invested elsewhere, potentially generating a higher return.
4. *Illiquidity*: A house is a relatively illiquid asset, meaning it can take time to sell and access the funds.

While a house can provide a sense of security, stability, and comfort, it's not necessarily generating income or appreciating in value while you're living in it. Therefore, from a purely financial perspective, a house you're living in is more of a liability than an asset.

What if a portion of the house serves as an office? In short it is both a home and an office, then it maybe an income generating asset not just a liability

Between Royal and Goodwill which would you say is better quality and lasting?

When I wanted to buy I bought Royal

They told me Royal is higher quality.

On the question of which is longer lasting, I cannot say yet.

Product is not quite 3 years yet

How do you guys clean your solar panels pls?

I live in far up northern Nigeria and we've dust storms on a regular. So panels are often covered in thick dust, though they still work.

I usually clean montly with water and omo and soft mop.

I'm hearing now that omo is too strong for panels and can erode whatever protective film abi anti reflective film on the panel. Too much Oyibo for me.

What do you guys use to clean your panels or what's the best safe way?

Is omo really bad? Can I substitute with dish washing fluid or car wash fluid or what?

I just use water.

Or use very diluted car wash fluid and a cloth to wipe it clean and then rinse.

I haven't even researched if I am doing the right thing.

Good question.

Now I will

bleexInc:
Hello House,

Which battery is best to use with luminous Eco volt Neo 1500va 24V inverter. Considering that Amaron quanta battery got damaged in less than a year.
Thank you

Been running mine for 4 years and they haven't been damaged.

Are you sure this isn't a case of abuse?

BlueRayDick:
Can you please educate me on what rights Betta had that has been trampled upon by FG by removing her from office for breaking the law?

I want to learn

You aren't serious.

Please refer to your constitution.

BlueRayDick:
The way you are going about this thing , you are making it seem like she has a case of wrongful dismissal which she can win if she institute a civil suit against her principal . Unfortunately you are wrong in that regard .

She was not wrongfully dismissed , neither was she discriminated against .

She contravened the law and she was rightfully dismissed .Case closed ! The law says you should transfer any public money into a private account or you will be assumed to have done that with criminal intent . She did that and was rightfully shown out the door .

What do you think judges do in court ? They simply interpret the law . The law was very clear and she contravened the law . She can’t argue that she was not allowed to continue to break the law or that she should not be punished for the law she’s broken.

If you feel for her , that’s just emotion and has nothing to do with the law. You can feel for a man who steals bread out of hunger in Kano and his hands was amputated in accordance with sharia law; but the law is the law .

Have you ever heard that criminal proceedings and civil proceedings can proceed independently?

Diddy is being pursued in both ways.

The laws that apply to both scenarios are different.

A right can be breached in the process of enforcing criminal law and the one wronged has a right to pursue civil remedies.

One more point if you want to charge her for a crime, then remember that the standard of proof for criminal cases is "beyond all reasonable doubt". This means that the prosecution must prove that the defendant is guilty and that there is no other logical explanation for the evidence. The standard is higher in criminal cases because the stakes are higher, such as the defendant's freedom or life.


On the other hand for civil cases, the standard of proof is "preponderance of the evidence". This means that the plaintiff must prove that it is more likely than not that the defendant's actions led to the damages. The standard is lower in civil cases because the stakes are usually money.

Which bar is easier to climb? Especially since the money was not paid into her personal account?

Of course, I know why she will not sue.

This discourse is purely for educational purposes.

Theflint1:
Can she make this argument when the argument she's making is she wasn't granted an exception to
commit crimes?

The law is funny. she will be pursuing her civil rights (in the US) or her human rights (in Nigeria)

There is a wide berth between civil and criminal wrongs.

I am telling you on the basis of rights she will win, study discrimination cases to get my drift

GloriousGbola:
No chief.

Everybody is doing it is not an excuse. It is actually a surefire way to get set up if dem mean am for you

You need just one example of a different treatment to succeed at a case of discrimination.

That said your point is well-made and cannot be argued.

She could argue the sex angle, because I am a woman and win or because I am young and win.

I feel sorry for her and hope she makes a comeback.

Must feel terrible to be singled out.

Problem is when the media is on your case, it is not easy to escape, that seems to be the issue here.

Plus she may have stepped on powerful toes, seem to remember she reported a head of a parastatal under a ministry.

BlueRayDick:
She actually did something wrong . Section 713 of Nigeria's Financial Regulations 2009 states that “Personal money shall in no circumstances be paid into a government bank account, nor shall any public money be paid into a private account“

“An officer who pays public money into a private account is deemed to have done so with fraudulent intention,”

If you pay government money into a private bank account , it is deemed you doing so with fraudulent intent ; it is very clear .

It’s just like getting caught trafficking drugs and you start claiming you didn’t do anything wrong because you know a lot of people who have been trafficking drugs for years and have made fortune from it.

I agree with you that she was used as a scapegoat tho.

You have a point, if only that law was applied uniformly across the board, there would be no issues.

BlueRayDick:
Hmmm.... Don't forget that Betta Edu didn't pay any money into her own personal account o, it was the account of one Bridget Oniyelu that the money was paid into. Just like this one that involves the money being paid into the account of one Unoh Omolara.

The only thing that wouldn't make Edun complicit is if they don't need his approval as minister to move N55m into a personal account.

One thing that is obvious in all of these is that a lot is really going on in the civil service. I remember during that Betta scandal, people defending her were arguing that there's nothing wrong in moving funds into personal account. More like they are so used to impunity that they don't even know its wrong.

She was a scapegoat.

Unfortunate, she suffered discrimination, but she can't sue because she needs to be in the good books of the party.

It is the practice of the system, she did nothing wrong.

If everyone else doing it was not sacked, then her sacking is discrimination pure and simple.

Landlord said no. I might just have to use just that one.

Sad

Sterling Bank's solar panels are like wall cladding all over the building.

You need to plan to change accommodation, the restrictive covenants are too much

Danibestguy:
There's barely space for walking. No space at all for the port. Only choice is the roof.

I have seen people keep it by the frontage if it is a storey building.

Seen someone whose own was installed by or on the the fence here.

That may also be an option.

I pray you move to a better place

Danibestguy:
Hello everyone. I need your advice please.
I have a 24v system comprising of a 3kva sako inverter and a 3.2kwh lifepo4 battery.

Load is majorly a 100w fan + 130w fridge(on for 4hrs/day)

I want to get solar panels to complement my setup but my landlord will not allow more than one panel on his roof(Lagos landlord wahala).

Will a 550w jinko panel suffice for the load of 24v/250-300 watts?

Please note that I'll be supporting with utility .
Also note that my inverter starts up at 30v according to the specifications on it.

Why not put them on a car port? Why must it be on the roof?

Is there no space for a car port?

On another thread, someone explained what happened to Ebang in the following words

There's a power struggle within the Equi. Guinea ruling family. Ebang is a grand nephew to the President, Ebang's father the President of The Central African Monetary Commission is President Teodoro Nguema's nephew. The investigation for fraud and release of the tapes was orchestrated by Teodorin Nguema Mangue the country's Veep and son of the President. It's no secret among the country's political circles and ruling family that Ebang's father and himself were considered alternatives to Teodorin Nguema the Veep in a succession battle. In this case, Teodorin moved first to eliminate a possible threat to him succeeding his father as President when the time comes. With Ebang out of the way, he has no other rivals to challenge him when the time comes. A similar move MBS played in Saudi Arabia. As for the knacking, he can't be charged that as it was all consensual, but maybe for recording. If Ebang can do that, imagine what Teodorin the veep an openly confirmed playboy does in his spare time. 😂

GloriousGbola:
Reno omokri the alleged wife beater and confam trophy wife hunter should not be talking in this matter

Also divorce is not mandatory. It is optional.

That same God of the Bible told a prophet to reinstate his adulterous wife to show his people how forgiving he can be and was to his people.

The guy wants to trend and is twisting issues.

You no serious

Gtbank is making amends, they will be open on Saturday and Sunday

adrusa:
The argument between top tier solar panels and the lower tier ones is not settled. Some people are of the opinion that what you get per naira is what is most important. If a 300W low tier panel gives me only 70% yield, but costs me only 50% of what I will pay for a top tier 300W panel, isn't the maths already leveling up?

Good to know.

What hasn't been settled is the longevity of the lower tier panels.

I'd stick to the top tier

This is why we say buy top tier panels.

On a good day when the stars align you will smile

GloriousGbola:
this is an email from swift networks to all their customers

the problem with GTB right now [in my own experience] is you have to go personally anytime you need to get funds out. at least that is what happened to us when we were paid into our gtb account on a project. no alert, nothing. we went to bank with evidence of payment , after which we immediately evacuated the money

Thanks.

In other words, we are back to the stone age for now.

GloriousGbola:
e don be for GTB

Please what was or is the source?

I guess I need to take my funds out oooo

This is my main corporate bank

Sonnobax15:
as in, hope you didn't succumb to their billing?

Nope. No funds exchanged hands.

And I haven't heard from them since.

Saw this funny video a while ago:

Do you mean sexual moves on my part?

Sonnobax15:

Typical Nigerian banny, especially the ones wey dey play home-base league of relationship

I don give up on wooing Nigerian bannies these days,cuz,come to think of it, what's the essence of dating someone who's steadily hungry like she doesn't have a father? . They can't be supportive..... Can't bring up a conversation,and even when the guy manages to bring up one,they can't sustain it but be giving meaningless and short replies like--"fyn,ok,gud and so on" .

If you really want to know the "olodo" you're dating, just tell her to write a formal letter . You go too shame for yourself as a guyman,cuz , majority of these bannies roaming our streets these days have nothing upstairs,apart from thinking of inventing various formats of how to bill men unnecessarily

The worst part of it all is that when a guy refuses to give Dem money,they will be angry as if the native cockerel give the guyman money to help her hold for her before

Tbh, dating a Nigerian banny of this generation isn't different from running an orphanage,even tho the later is more heavenly and more humanly than the former

Very wayward creatures

In the last one week, I meet two.

Within 1 week of meeting out of the blue, I got an urgent request for 50,000.00?

I said wow.

You barely know me and the billing game is on?
