I didn't know that Benin is in the North East

Would you say Obajana (Kogi State) and Okene (Kogi State) are in the South-South?

I've traveled that route a lotta times. I wonder why they had to bring Benin into it and then name it 'Phase One', if not for cheap propaganda purposes. That road is entirely in Kogi State and could be comfortably called 'Obajana-Okene' road without any qualms. But, in order to make it look as if they are doing something for the South-South, they had to christen it a name that would confuse people. My dear! We are not confused, that road is in Kogi State and Kogi is not in the South-South, nor in the Niger Delta...

@the bolded, those roads are not in the South-South, please. There is nothing for Rivers and Bayelsa States in this budget. Like someone said earlier, what's in it for the riverine communities which are the mainstay of the economy? You said something about next year's budget, what happens if some of the roads in the North are put in next year's budget, while those for the riverine/coastal areas are started off in this year?

Kudos to the OP!
OP is not working with/for the Ministry of Budget and National Planning. He's only doing a patriotic duty of sensitizing the Public on contents of the 2016 Budget.
We don't need to channel our frustrations to him, rather we should appreciate him for taking his time to "summarize" the contents of the Budget on regional basis!
Thanks to those who will listen!

He is among the recently employed social media warriors that met with Osibanjo recently. He is actually doing a great job to earn his take...

Its your fcvking retarded's fault. he did give any room for production in 6 years in charge.

In those 6 years, the price for a ream of paper was a constant, K at N600. Now that the sophisticated and supersonic are in charge, its skyrocketed to N1,300 and its a pity that you still can't afford a ream of paper to write your petition. My bad! dear, your case is even more pathetic than earlier imagined. I'm sincerely and genuinely sorry for over-rating you.

Ha! Ha!! Ha!!! He pain am die. ..

ubcandid:
go to volks wagen place, stallion mottors and you would get a brand new Passat with that amount. with a year servicing or so.

Just like I said earlier, but they are making it look as if buying a new car in Nigeria has become rocket science (Apologies to Babatunde Fashola)...

except the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, who also has a plane at his disposal, made use of Sheriff’s private jets on one occasion or the other.


Some Rivers people nearly killed Amaechi when he got that jet.

Hey! That jet pre-dates Amaethief's tenure as gov'nor. Rivers State Gov't has always had its own plane. RVSG is not some broke-azss South West state...

PUSH1:


I will personally put in a petition against that drunkard

Its one year already and you are yet to buy even a sheet of paper, not to talk of pen or even pencil.

By the way **** I hope you know that a ream of paper which used to be N600 in May, 2015 is now N1,300.00.

Go and read about Equatorial Guinea.

BTW, Nigeria's total oil reserves (heavy and light oil) is put at about 76 billion barrels; Ondo state alone owns roughly 40 billion barrels of those.

You will argue still, because getting facts across to 'sincerely ignorant' people is like baptizing a cat.

Another El Rufai sighted...

7m wont buy any brand new toyota suv. thats corolla price range. Camry self is not 7m brand new.

Do you know a Prado GX goes for less than N10m? Ab initio it used to go for about N7m. Do you know that the price difference between the base Toyota Prado (GX) and the high end one (VX-L) is often more than N7m...

This is not based on hearsays or propaganda prices often quoted on the internet to hoodwink buyers. These are based on actual purchases made as a procurement officer. So I know what I'm saying, except if prices have changed drastically in the last one year...

ataspray:

7m wont buy any brand new toyota suv. thats corolla price range. Camry self is not 7m brand new.

Corolla for N7m?
Is it bullet proofed?
Is it a proforma for Fashola, Stella Odua or the Senate? LWKMD.

Anybody who sells a Corolla to you at N7m has seen your level of "muguness" and wants to cash in on you big time...

ataspray:

7m wont buy any brand new toyota suv. thats corolla price range. Camry self is not 7m brand new.

For the Camry, it depends on what trim level you are buying. Same for the Accord. Corolla and Civic are in the region of N4m-N5m, depending on the trim level. I have proforma's from Elizade, Honda Place and Volks Wagen Centre, all in ABJ...

If you are telling me those dealerships I mentioned sell low mileage cars as new cars, then, may be I might be wrong...

ataspray:

7m wont buy any brand new toyota suv. thats corolla price range. Camry self is not 7m brand new.

Please, check again, then revert to me.

How can you say you can't get a new Rav4 for N7m? The price was even less than that when I got a proforma from Elizade in ABJ. From Coscharis, Ford Escape was about that price. Honda Place's proforma gave the price of the CRV in the region of N6m. All the Hyundai I quoted are below the N7m mark.

This is called an RV. Recreational Vehicle. Its often custom made to owner's spec. I think former G'vnor of Akwa Ibom State, Senator Godswill Akpabio bought one made by Mercedes Benz before he left as G'vnor. Although, his wasn't as big as this, it was more like a minibus version...

I guess the OP said new. If its new, I'd recommend either of: 1. Toyota RAV 4 2. Honda CRV 3. Hyundai Santa Fe 4. Hyundai IX35 5. Hyundai Sonata 6. Nissan Rogue 7. Toyota Corolla 8. Toyota Camry 9. Honda Accord 10. Honda Civic 11. Ford Escape All these cars/SUVs are priced within the N7.0m range...

Mobil 1 5W 30.

One gallon cost 9k X 2 = 18k.

Last oil change was in January.

Please, what kinda car would that be. I'm just curious...

Bright2:
I use mobil 5w 30 synthetic for my honda pilot purchased for N11000 ,4 lit plus 1 liter making it 5 liters together though it was recommende i used 5w 20 premium oil but i only found 5w 30 synthetic in mobil station PHC & i bought it cos it's closer in grade. I don't change oil unless the indicator count down to 20% which could take a year cos i don't drive always.

What model year is your pilot? 5w20 is readily available in PH and Bayelsa. Go online and google 5w20 engine oil in PH or better still just Konga it...

Boss i dey loyal, only be say i never see your brake lights

So, how far? You don fit get the nozzle for me?

copiescopy:
Na wa o oo .. All this kin wahala na becos of Honda o. Come to think of it again all this started due to some simple misunderstanding by both parties . Its something that can be settled in a mature way . Thank God the issues are not something too difficult as both parties seem mature and i see this as the Buhari Factor . Its the APC change Mantra that is affecting every aspect of the economy that is causing all thing. Once again my brothers please make una settle this amicably .

You drew smiles to my face and made me chuckle alone in my room. Thanks for making my evening. Lol...

bashexyz:
I have done alot of business with luvinhubby. Sometimes i even collect parts and not pay till month end when salary enter. He's a down to earth man. I think he even gives people he meets from nairaland special treatment compared to others...

So this whole mix up is just clear miscommunication, which can be resolved amicably.

There is no issue here. All he had to do was to tell me what he said here all this while and I would have been cool with it, instead, he kept asking for my account number as if he was gonna send my money back...

copiescopy:


Guys make una maturely handle this matter !!

You both have ur nos and contact in between yourselves.This can be resolved amicably . I wish you guys all the best .

Thanks man...

anneki:


I believe this is how the wahala started. An account number was asked for and he was never paid / refunded.

Thanks bro, for understanding me. I didn't say N4k was a lot of money, but he kept asking me to send an account number and never crediting it...

GAZZUZZ:


Nah 4k refund for parts delivered but found to be faulty (broken could have happened during delivery no fault of his) that made you want to tarnish luvinghubby image here? And I was thinking it was over 400k abeg send me ur acc.

Dear Gazzuzz, if the least car I have is an 8th generation Honda Civic, I know I'm poor, but not that broke that N4K would irk me some. The problem here is that there was no communication. Instead of telling me he has carried forward my cash as a deposit, he kept asking me to send account number. Haba! Jama ha! I be human being and I work for the cash na...

denice1:


Why was the guy making so much noise for nothing if he got what he paid for.
Difficult to refund under such suspicious circumstances.

I'd rested this case before, as the cash involved is paltry. But, thanks bro for insulting me. You asked a good question and went ahead to rubbish it? If I actually got what I paid for, why would I be aggrieved? I'm aggrieved simply because I didn't get what I paid for and the guy at the other end refused to communicate. That was all. Moreover, N4,000 ain't a lotta money anyway...

luvinhubby:

You paid for sand protector, wiper blades & 4,000 for bonneth nozzle on Oct. 3 2015 & you had all the items sent to you in Nsukka .
5 after, days you called back that you are sending back the nozzle, that it was broken, which was rather surprising because i personally despatched those items, not any of my boys and the nozzle was sealed inside an envelope.

You sent back a broken nozzle and demanded a refund because as you said, you have sourced for the same nozzle from YOUR BROTHER WHO SELLS CARS in Cotonous, of which i told you is not tainable under such a condition but was ready to give you the benefit of doubt & do a deduction of 4,000 for in your next purchase but you unreasonably choose rather to press for a refund which to me as a businessman is not realistic.

My name is not Santa & my surname is not Clause, i am a businessman, anyday you are ready for the deduction on purchase let me know.

@Bolded, the SUV is still being driven with the damaged nozzle till date. The car was in Bayelsa at the time while I was in Nsukka with the Civic and thanked you profusely and excitedly. I spotted the broken nozzle right from the park as the driver handed it to me and there were no particles in the envelope you used to send it. How could that be suspicious?

Issues. I hate.
I ain't above board either. But, thanks for calling me Santa Claus.
You have my money, not yours.
You refused to return it, but yet think you are no Santa because you refused to return MY cash. Hhmm! That said and done...

You never told me what you are saying now. If you did, why did you ask for my account number? Was it for you to be able to go check my account balance? Lol...

I'm a gentleman who abhors trouble. All my cars are Honda and I'd sure need a lot of Honda parts as time goes by. If you had told me that I already have a deposit of N4,000 with you for future purchases, why did you ask for my account number?

You can also testify to the fact that, despite the foregoing, I still call you whenever I need anything Honda, remember the glass? The compressor? This should have shown you that I ain't mad or bitter with you, just that I am no Santa Claus too. I'm a businessman-cum-Public Servant and I need money as much as you do too...

I hate what has gone on here but you caused it because you refused to communicate your intentions/position to me, instead, you keep asking for my bank account details with a promise to transfer the said amount to me. And this happened 4 times in about a year's span. Maazi, nobody no know say if your money enter Ibo man hand, them no dey gree release am back to you again, except you go use am collect another thing. I don tay for Naija no be today, my Broda...

luvinhubby:

Oga stop disturbing my mentions and go do what we agreed that you do.

Sometime around June last year, I contacted you for the following items...

1. OEM wipers for 2010 Honda Civic EX

2. Sand/mud guard for 2010 Honda Civic EX

3. Washer dispenser nozzle for 2010 Honda Pilot Touring

You sent me your account number and I credited you with the amount you requested for. You supplied all the items, only for me to discover that item 3 on the list above is defective and I had to send it back to you. I was at Nsukka at the time. Ever since then, you have been giving me the excuse that you couldn't get the dispenser nozzle and at a point we both had to agree that you would make a refund to me. To which I sent you my account number.

Ever since then, its been one story or the other, only for you to be asking me to send you my account number whenever you pick my call after refusing to pick it for a while. We've repeated this cycle 3 times after the initial transaction, making it 4 times now, in a period spanning almost one year...

You are now acting as if I'm just out to ruin you. That was so pedestrian and lowly, please, you have my account number, refund my cash and I'll just move on...

luvinhubby:

Oga stop disturbing my mentions and go do what we agreed that you do.

What did we agree on? I don't get it...

You asked for my account number at FOUR different times over the period of one year, but refused to credit my account with the refund since you couldn't get the washer fluid dispenser nozzle for my 2010 Honda Pilot...

Are you mistaking me for someone else you've duped or are you just trying to be smart by half?

copiescopy:
Sorry for that bro , Nigerians sha and this kind of behaviour . I really dont now what to say .but I will advise you to take things easy with him if he really wishes to refund you maybe God will touch his heart and he will do so one day but then keep expressing your feelings as you are doing so he will know how you felt . I wonder if he was in your shoes to know how it feels .

Thanks! My Bro. This very guy, Luvinhubby, na senior hypocrite. E take God matter serious pass anything, as in, pass me and you, but once you bring Naira into the matter, na there you go understand say even devil get compassion.

@Luvinhubby, I'm calling you out, refund my money, your antics don tire me, I don chill for almost a year for you to send back my cash to no avail. This is your thread and I'm spamming it so that you won't have any excuse that you've not seen my complain...

Please, Nairalanders, beware of whom you transact with here on. There are so many wolves in sheep clothing...

copiescopy:
Bro,abeg take it easy with luvinghubby , you guys should settle amicably o ..Happy Monday and one love

For almost one year, I mean, ONE FULL YEAR, this guy keep refusing to pick my calls, when he does, he'll always ask me to send my account number, but he'll never send the money. We've repeated this cycle over 4 times and he still gat guts to tell you to contact Union Office over similar issue. That's why I dey tire for Nigeria online transactions...
