agaugust: show me the south african navy warship that can travel from Cape Town to Alaska U.S.A without stopping to refuel on the way

only nigerian navy NNS Thunder has travelled from Alaska U.S.A to Africa without refueling along the voyage, only nigerian navy has that type of blue water warship in the whole of Africa.

learn to respect naija your senior brother !

.

All SA warships can go round the planet.

agaugust: your source says a company is working on it for south african navy.

nigerian navy has already installed our own as at now.

show us proof that yours have been installed in south africa too . until then, we claim first position.

You are already too late chief, the Centre for Scientific and Industrial Research (government-owned) has long completed that project (2012) and as we speak those cameras are in operation in SAN. Make a thorough research before you pour your ignorance here.

[size=16pt]nigerian navy installs modern 48km long range spy cameras along nigerian coastline

...first in africa[/size]
.

(Reuters) - Nigeria's navy has installed eight automated, camera-equipped surveillance towers in the waters just off its coast, in an effort to tackle a surge in pirate attacks and crude oil theft that have blighted Africa's top energy producer this year.

Chief of Naval Staff Vice Admiral Dele Ezeoba told journalists late on Thursday that the equipment, most of it from Japan's Furuno and costing roughly $12 million in total, had high-frequency radio and long-range cameras able to spot ships up to 48 km (30 miles) away.

South Africa has already worked on that, Oops!!!

All South African satellites are less than 100Kg, unlike Nigeria's satellites which are almost the size of locomotive. The US has ceised long ago manufacturing such giant satellites which are very slow to operate.

agaugust: hahaha

your south african SumbandilaSat is dead since september 2012 over two years ago !

Launch date September 17, 2009,
Orbit life time 3 years

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SumbandilaSat

Epoch time december means the last time check when your dead junk metal dead satellite was seen floating around useless in space.

you dont know the meaning of Epoch ? you must be a real south african dude

Bwahahahaha, epoch means the period. By 14 December 2013, just last week it was still fully functional. By the way, let me help you with this, it might help you.

http://www.infosatellites.com/sunsat-satellite-tracking-norad-25636.html

The Sumbandila SAT is still fully operational as at 14 December 2013.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SumbandilaSat

agaugust: SA has [size=14pt]NO[/size] confirmed and fully fuctional satellites orbirting the earth. Believe it or not.

Why cant you ask our government? Or do you want me to do it for you and prove you wrong.

agaugust: how many ANC terrorists ever stood for trial under apartheid south african prosecutors ? how many of them did you ever ever arrest ?

The treason trial which saw Nelson Mandela incacerated for more than 26 years, had over 20 people standing trial. Over 5000 MK members did not stand trial.

agaugust: sorry dude, your above sorce article is out-dated 4 years ago year 2010, many things have changed in africa since then

.

The above is still standing even today. South Africa in 2010 was building a new one and no African country had ever build any ever since, except sub- stations to help communicate with their own satellites.

agaugust: you got it wrong dude, nigerian satellites DONT NEED the south african gateway to work in other regions, that gateway in your country has servers that serve your region only, if we shut it down, south africa will go into 'telecommunications black-out' until we switch it on again

south africa has NO telecoms satellite of her own, you depend on nigeria to keep your country linked to the outside world.

nigeria can throw south africa back to telecoms stone-age if we want, and sure we can listed to some of your military communications in secret by 'spying/bugging' your communications, decoding your military, political, and economic messages as they transmit through nigerian satellite relays...

south africa, nigeria is holdling you by your two egg-shaped balls....we can squeeze it tomorrow....and you will cry out for your mummy

.

We had telecoms long before Nigeria could ever think of launching her first satellite. If you dont know how satellites work rather leave this talk to experts.

Telecoms use cabling and South Africa is the headquaters when it comes to that area as well.

You are such a hell of a fool because once we shut down our servers, your satellite will malfunction.

The Square Kilometres Array which is underway in SA is to rule the whole world in technology.

scipher: your economy is largely dependent on ur resources... only your informal sector can help you boy.. oh, I forgot, black south Africans are not industrious... #bee thingz.

That is untrue, we have many companies which have been established in SA ever since our last rebasing. Currently, SA has over 200 companies whose activities have not been properly recorded in our GDP database ever since our last rebasing.

agaugust: It seems you dont know that a telecoms satellite is very different from earth observation satellites, i said for telecommunications satellites yes, but for earth observation satellites that do photography and imagery of locations, no need for i gateway i guess.

go back and read your own source, the nigerian satellite that has gateway in south africa is NIGCOMSAT telecommunications satellite.

anyway, it means south africa is depending on nigerian satellites too, we are saving you from stone-age backwardness in that area, sorry we dont really need you, the gateway could also be in zimbabwe if nigeria decides to move it, sorry south africa we are just using you

.

Your satellite depend on our servers, which are the only advanced servers in Africa. They were built by NASA in early 1960 and handed over to Centre of Scientific and Industial Research in South Africa. We do not depend on anyone.

Henry120: Read carefully................

Current nigerian growth rate is = 7- 7.8%
After rebase in my opinion. = 6%
I also said we have recorded in the past= 8.5 %

The economic growth of Nigeria is most likely to be less than 2.5% after rebasing.

Here under is confirmed to be reduced by 50% (half) after rebase, but economists are insisting it will be less than 2.5%. That I collected it from the financial news some time ago.

http://theeconomistng..com/2013/03/rebasing-to-reduce-nigerias-gdp-rate-by.html?m=1

Henry120: You are incredibly stu.pid.

**** we have recorded a growth rate of 8.5 % in the past. At no point did I say our average growth rate is 8.5%.


You have a comprehension problem.

I repeat, you have said your average growth is 7.8% go down to my post to find out the truth which i have quoted from you.

Henry 120:
Henry 120:


The growth would come down to 6%. Still miles ahead of SA. That's not half. Our current growth is 7.8% on average.

Now, tell us how does 7.8% become average of 8.5% maximum?

That which you have written above is the effects of drinking too much of cheap palm wine.

Henry120: Read carefully................

Current nigerian growth rate is = 7- 7.8%

I also said we have recorded in the past= 8.5 %

There is nothing that i will carefully have to peruse, because i have already done that. You are still illiterate when it comes to numbers.

Tell us how does 7.8% bbecome an average of 8.5% maximum? That is only possible in Nigeria.

Henry120: I want some of that good quality kush you are smoking.

I said the highest growth recorded is 8.5%. I did not say 8.5 was our average growth. Do you understand english at all?

You seem to be smoking from the pipe boy. This is what you have wrote below:

Henry 120:
The growth would come down to 6%. Still miles ahead of SA. That's not half. Our current growth is 7.8% on average.

You are indeed drunk from your palm wine.

Minimum = less than half

Average = half

Maximum= full.

Henry120: Nigeria's maximum growth rate was above 8.5 % at it's peak.

That is untrue, you claimed 7.8% on average amd tell me how does 7.8% become average of 8.5%? You must do your figures well. Bwahahahahahahaha!!!

Give SA only 5years it will topple Nigeria for good.

Henry120: We are africa's largest economy. Finito!!!!!!!

After how many years, being under the arms of a small country like SA. That could not last you long, because SA's economy is to begin recovering by next year and after the SKA which might again see SA performing better than Nigeria again. Enjoy it while it last.

Henry120: The growth would come down to 6%. Still miles ahead of SA. That's not half. Our current growth is 7.8% on average.

7% on maximum and that will be halved into more than a half.

na_chris_be_dis: the point is after rebasing, it will overtake your economy to he the biggest in Africa.

and with a low debt to GDP ratio and a continuous growth of 6-7, continuous investment in infrastructure to attract FDI etc.. it is definitely going to portray Nigeria as an emerging market and the biggest in Africa since SA GDP keeps slowing.

so yes it will affect it but not on a negative outlook.

enlighten yourself boy.

You will overtake SA, that i agree, but your economic growth will be halved. Remember, 10 is 10% of 100 but is not 10% of 150.

South Africa would like to congratulate Themba Maseko (24), the second South African and the first black South African to head to space.

http://m.news24.com/news24/Technology/News/2nd-South-African-to-head-to-space-20131222

na_chris_be_dis: your link only talks of an ice cube wheather satellite. show proof that you previously launched satellites are still functioning till date or remain an ignoramus.

meanwhile, Nigeria is due to launch another satellite with military applications built by Nigerian engineers soon.

Then, it proves to me that you didnt read the link.

na_chris_be_dis: point of correction. space hunks. not satellites.

gosh. are you really this ignorant

point of correction. space hunks. not satellites.

gosh. are you really this ignorant

Those are not junks, they are still fully functional to date.

South Africa is leading satellites game in Africa.

NaijaPikinGidi: Making a joke of yourself will not serve as an escape for your stupidity today! I'm sure you'd rather have a tokoloshe or sangoma control our satellites since you've got none in SA to control! Your loud mouths must be gateways for churning out crass stupidity day in and day out.

SA has three confirmed and fully fuctional satellites orbirting the earth. Believe it or not.

na_chris_be_dis: seriously. stop blabbing

That is the truth my friend, go and ask economists. After rebasing all the figures will be new and that will have a serious impact on economic growth.

[quote author=na_chris_be_dis][/quote]Unfortunately, such a snail pace procedure will only target high profile members of BH. Do you think that the whole force of insurgents can ever stand trial for all the crimes they have committed? Come on, that will never happen.

One of the major disadvantages of rebasing the economy is that the effects will reduce the economic growth by more than half.

chris365: Lol. You just made me laugh. Seriously. Stop blabbing

That is nothing but the truth.
