Travel › Re: This Expression Can Send You To Jail Abroad As A Nigerian by femi4: 4:28pm On May 22
Rapmoney:
Never use this expression: 'I flashed her' or 'I flashed him' when you find yourself in a country where standard English is spoken. Examples are the United Kingdom, US, Australia, Canada, etc.

REASON: It might be a slang for saying you called someone and hang up quickly for them to call you back in Nigeria, but in these countries, it means to show someone your unclothedness or nude, which is a very serious crime

WHAT TO SAY INSTEAD: The standard English for that expression is 'I gave him or her a missed call' or 'I gave him or her a quick ring'.

I hope you have learnt something today?
Your correction is not all that perfect.

Just say “I called him/her briefly"

Even British guys speak terrible english sometimes, we have stuff like 'i will ring her back" instead of "I will call her back"

Today makes it a week that my money in my opay account was mysteriously transfer to one kuda account named Sani Hannatu. I contacted Opay through tweeted and was told it was under investigation. And up till now, they have not said anything. Please, I dont know who has an idea on how to get my money back. Mehn! Opay do me something!

I downloaded an app through an Ad on one of the social media and after installing it, I noticed my phone touch pad misbehaving and i uninstalled the app but the interface of the app remain on my phone despite removing it from the app list on my phone. Yet, the phone touch pad misbehaving. I already gave up to buy another phone and suddenly, my phone screen went blind and later showing updating app. After 3 hours, it was still showing same. I restarted the phone and restored factory setting. I checked my Opay account and noticed my money was gone. sad sad sad cry cry cry. How do i get my money back?
You are at fault...you downloaded a mod app they used in transferring your money

Always download apps from playstore or recommended links

Your money is gone

Car Talk › Re: Have I Been Scammed? by femi4: 12:45am On May 22
Revealpanda:
I know absolutely nothing about cars and wanted to get my first car... I always loved 2013-15 Honda accord.... All my hope was on a friend who's been in car business for about 5 years now and knows his way around.

I went to where he is and we looked for a direct Belgium car, he did all the necessary test and assured me it was a good car... The person we were getting is from is also his business network of friends.

I made the whole payment without doing any test of my own because I know nothing.... We did drive test and everything and the car was okay.


On getting to my state I just decided to Google the Cars VIN number, I saw it online where it was in USA, turns out it seemed the car was used for Taxi in USA... While other than the headlight which was damaged in the VIN page it has no issue.


My concern now is the mileage... It has more than 200kmiles on it already... And via my small research such cars are bound to fail anytime.


I paid 13m for 2015 honda accord not to talk of transportation to my state which is 600-900km away from Lagos which te driver is saying he will take 700k to drive it to my state, not to talk of commission I paid my guy


My question now is was I scammed?

I've been depressed since last week
lol

Indeed you don't know anything about car

A car is as good as its last servicing not milage

For a car of over 10yrs old, you should be worried if the milage is less than 100k miles

You should focus on engine sound and regular maintenance not milage
Travel › Re: Is That Keke Driver Making More Per Kilometre Than You? by femi4: 12:40am On May 22
DesertFather:
Is that keke driver making more per trip than the uber/bolt/indrive driver?

Mathematicians in the house… Oya carry biro

I entered keke from Berger to Akute the other day. ₦400 per head, four passengers. I brought out my phone and started calculating. By the time we reached the first stop I began to question life choices.


The keke — Berger to Akute, 4.6km

Worst case: no stops, park ticket don swallow one seat, net fare = ₦1,200
Best case: two stops, extra pickups after ticket, net fare = ₦1,600

Fuel. Keke does about 22km per litre. For 4.6km:
4.6 ÷ 22 × ₦1,310 = ₦274





Okay. ₦186 to ₦273 per kilometre. Keep that range in your head. This is for the KEKE

Now my actual Bolt trip — Magodo Phase 1 to Denro, 7km grin

This happened. Fare was ₦3,500. AC was on because Lagos and because the passenger will review you.

Fuel. Corolla does 11km/L normally. AC drops that to about 9.35km/L in Lagos traffic. For 7km:
7 ÷ 9.35 × ₦1,310 = ₦981




Now look at this table.




Your Bolt trip sits right in the middle of the keke range.

A fully loaded keke on a good run — where passengers enter and enter and enter — is beating you. A half-empty keke is behind you. The entire difference between you and that keke driver is **two passengers.**

He doesn't have Bolt's 25%. He doesn't have your fuel efficiency problem. He has no AC to run. What he has is a park ticket, an agbero, and the mercy of God that his seats stay full.

What you have is a ₦3,500 fare that looks fine on the Bolt app until you carry biro.

And we haven't even talked about hire purchase yet. Whatever you pay daily to own that Corolla — ₦20k, ₦35k, ₦50k — that number leaves your pocket before you make a single kobo for yourself. Keke man has no HP(hire-purchase). Or maybe he does. That makes the stress for two.

I'm not saying sell your car. I'm saying many of us on these apps are looking at gross earnings and feeling okay without ever knowing our real number per kilometre after everything has gone.

The keke driver doesn't have an app showing him encouraging statistics. He just counts what enters his hand at the end of the day.

what does your actual per kilometre look like after fuel, platform cut, maintenance and HP? Drop your numbers — let's calculate together.
Your calculation didn't put traffic into concederation....traffic eats into their time n fuel

Pets › Re: Is It Advisable To Buy A 7 Weeks Puppy That Hasn’t Been Vaccinated by femi4: 12:34am On May 22
Angie30:
Hello,
I want to get a 7 weeks puppy but the owner says he hasn’t been vaccinated. When I googled it says dogs should be given their first vaccine against parvo by 6 weeks.
I once had a dog that was down with parvo and I know how much it cost to cure the dog plus the pain he went through, so I just want to know if getting this dog and vaccinating at 7 weeks is risky.
7 weeks is not too late...dogs have their natural immune system too

Car Talk › Re: Changan Cars Vs 2014 Honda Accord — I Need Your Honest Reviews! by femi4: 12:31am On May 22
ponlear:
Hello house,

​Please I need the car gurus, and actual owners on this forum to advise me before I make a major financial move.

​With the way the economy is going, buying a 2018+ Tokunbo car right now is looking like a luxury apartment investment. Because of this, I've been doing some serious calculations. My budget is pulling me toward two completely different directions, and I want to see what makes the most sense for a daily Lagos commute.

​On one hand, I’m looking at a clean Tokunbo 2014 Honda Accord. We all know the Accord is a sweet ride— comfortable, nice interior, excellent handling, and that 2.4L i-VTEC engine is quite reliable.

​On the other hand, my eyes have been firmly fixed on the Changan brand—brand new or very clean used one from China. Visually, these Changan cars are breathtaking. The interior looks like a full stack tech hub with the screens, 360-degree cameras, and panoramic roof. Plus, Mikano backing them with a warranty sounds like peace of mind when getting a brand new one.

Although, I heard mikano won't offer support to the imported ones. How has the experience been for those that own these Changan cars?

​But as a proper Nigerian, my mind is still playing ten-ten about switching to a Chinese brand over a proven Japanese machine. Before I drop my hard-earned money, I need the house to help me weigh these options

​Parts & Maintenance: If an alternator or sensor goes bad on the Accord, I can get it in Ladipo or any spare parts market in 10 minutes. What is the story for Changan parts? Can a regular mechanic handle them, or am I strictly tied to Mikano and what happens when I opt to import directly from China.

​Should I go for the tech and newness of the Changan, or should I just stick to the reliable, comfortable, and easy-to-maintain 2014 Honda Accord?

​Actual owners, mechanics, and car enthusiasts, please air your thoughts! no capping.

Thank you
Avoid honda like plague
Nairaland General › Re: What Did Curiosity Make You Do In Childhood That You Vowed Never To Do Again? by femi4: 12:29am On May 22
Stephen0mozzy:
They say "Curiosity killed the cat..."
Turns out there's an ending part to that saying, which is "...and satisfaction brought it back".

There's no one as curious as a young child, and for some of us during those young years, we let our curiosity almost lead us astray 😅. So let's do a little throwback to those moments when we really learned the hard way, we excitedly did something or try to find out how something worked, and we have never tried it again since then.

Share yours - What did curiosity make you do when you were still growing up as a child that you have not tried again after that event?

Lemme share mine...
