A good one.

But there are still a thousand and one other roads begging for attention if only the yokes on the necks of the LGs will be removed, we won't be praising Governors for every little things.
I thought Buhari tried it with an executive order and the governors quickly went to court and had it nullified. We are not yet serious in that country.

I see nothing wrong with this!

Of course, a man is free to marry as many wives as he wants. Ned nwoko married many wives and he's currently still searching for more.

Yul is an alpha male. He knows exactly what he wants. After banging the first wife, he dumped her and went for a new fresher pussy. That's how it should be!

CrimeRe: Suspected Yahoo Boy Spotted Stealing Panties From A Building (Video) by frowland(m):
Angel55555:
It looks staged ?
I might be wrong
Events that gave it out as staged;
1. Poor quality camera to make sure the identity of the person is not known.
2. The car was parked as to give the camera a direct view of events.
3. The choice pant colour of white for visual clarity/understanding.
4. The persistent showcasing of the white pant to make sure you know what he was stealing.
5. The background commentary as if we were watching football.
6. The YouTube channel itself.

All the above gave it out as staged and a click bait. Luckily the YouTube channel is making a hit as it have gotten large number of views already.

BusinessRe: How Do I Recover My Money From Union Bank? by frowland(m):
CaptainFM1:
Like I said in one of my post, the right thing is to credit the person first then follow suit with their investigation. It has happened to me in the UK once and that was what HSBC did.

So if you're crediting someone in weeks after and the person already gone 6ft below what then is his gain? Of what use is the reversal?
You never can tell how serious the person need that money at that point in time.

Our problem in this regard is because we don't have consumers protection/right. I bought a pair of addidas trainers in the UK and it opened up in 3days, luckily, I still kept the reciept. I went back and was giving a new one.

Another instance was when I tried buying a PC at Staples and my card was swiped twice. The first swipe already took my money and the second attempt, the attendant said I do not have enough money on my card. I look so stupid on the queue. Could you step aside? He said! Everyone was looking at me as if I stole the card somewhere.

I left there in annoyance, called my bank up and they confirmed the store had been credited. I needed to use the PC for a project over the weekend but I had to borrow someone's PC for that.

First thing on Monday morning, I called the store and started shouting on the manager and threatened that I will report them to consumer protection that they subjected me to racial profiling. Lo and behold, the manager called me in the afternoon and apologies for their mistake (double-swiping) and asked me to come pick the PC for half the price. They had to appease me somehow for the trouble. This happened on Friday night and was sorted by Monday Afternoon!

That's how urgent and serious customers query should be attended to. That's how it should be done. And if you've inconvenient a consumer/customer in any way, you should make up for it ASARP.
That is in an ideal situation where there is honesty and accountability. It’s not practically applicable in Nigeria as everyone is ‘seen’ to be dishonest with one another.

Secondly, as someone who once worked as a cash officer, his own case is unique because head office didn’t see the overage since it was dispensing and power went off.
The person who saw the overage is the ATM officer/Cash officer (This is the reason two or more person now enters the ATM machine to load cash and no longer one person). If ATM officer reports it, then it’ is captured and treated but not immediate because the customer might not be the only one in that mechine that had dispense error for that day.
If he diverts the funds then it is seen as it was dispensed and this takes more time to investigate.
Technically, the bank have to initially believe the customer and conduct some internal investigations to know where the money went to. After which the funds gets credited back, reason some take time.
Another angle is that the ATM machine and the ATM issuers are different banks.
You will need bank to bank reconciliations. He will get his funds, but have to be patient.

Finally, maybe due to curruption or so, most ATM I have come across outside Nigeria gives out your ATM CARD first before CASH. In this way, activities are logged. Instead of how it is in Nigeria where it is Cash first before ATM card.

Good day Nairaland.
Please how do I recover my money from Union Bank?
On 19th April 2022, I went to use their ATM at about 8:10 a.m and I was debited N20k without cash dispense because the machine went off while counting the money due to power failure from the bank's generator house.
After 24hrs I went to their branch to lay a compliant and they acknowledged the dispense error and started that it will be reversed after 24hrs which did not happen.
I called their customer care line 2 days later and one of their agent told me that it will be reversed after 24hrs and that she has sent It for manual reversal.
Despite this I didn't get the reversal.

I again went to the bank last week Friday, 23rd April and the customer service apologized that it must be reversed that day which did not still happen.
I chatted them up on Twitter, and they claim that it has been reversed, and after proving that nothing has been reversed they stopped responding to my messages on Twitter.
I sent them a mail and they didn't respond till yesterday, where they stated that the issue will be resolve within 48 hours.
Nothing has happened yet.
I tried calling their their customer service now and I noticed that I can no longer reach them with my two lines, probably they blocked my line.

P.s; I am fully aware that they have breached their obligation in respect to banker-customer relationship and that I would be entitled to damages if I sue them for this.
But the truth is, instituting a legal action now would be too expensive for me coupled with the litigation process.

Please what do you suggest I do apart from litigation?
Your money will be reversed. It happened on the 19th of this month? Then relax your money will return back to you.

"These are the munitions that the Ukrainian forces used to bombard residential quarters of populated areas, constantly endangering civilians," the ministry stressed, adding that the depots also contained ammunition for small arms, tube artillery, the armament of air defense systems and various grenades.

I am not saying the claim is true or not but Ukraine have been shelling rebel region Donetsk long before this current war started.

Foreign AffairsRe: EU Agrees To Pay For Russian Gas In Rubles Without Breaching Sanctions by frowland(m):
plaindealer:
Reading and comprehension na serious wahala for Nigerian youths.. grin

The EU is not paying dumb asss pouTin in worthless rubbles, they are paying in Euros and Dollars while the Gazprombank, the Russian bank converts the payment into rubbles.

If Gazprombank sleeps better at night by converting EU's Euros and Dollars payment into Rubbles, that is their problem, but they are not getting any rubble payment from the EU.
Russia bank will receive in USD and or in Euro and will convert it to rubbles at their own bank rate!!
Meaning the higher the rubbles, the more EU pays and the lower the rubble the lower EU pays.
Get the economics? ....or do you still need a breakdown?

Have you heard about the Enigma machine?
Yes the British intelligence was able to decrypt German communications - They ‘intentionally’ allowed the Germans sink series of Subs and ships even after they intercepted coms and got advance intelligence of the attacks. People died. Even a ship conveying families wasn’t spared.


They needed the enigma for much more bigger intelligence and with excruciating patience, they got it.

One thing about intelligence gathering is not always about stopping immediate attacks but maybe trying to know who they talk to, where the millions in ransom eventually go to and so forth. It is much more than just intercepting phone calls.

Are you saying that this man knows or knew the solutions to our problems all this while and he kept quiet? Why are some nigerians so wicked?? Must Osinbajo succeed Buhari at the expense of this country's survival? Spaghetti of 130 is now 400. Sardine of 180 is now 700. Noodles of 35 is now 100. Soft drinks of 100 are now 150/200/250, Cabin biscuit of 150 is now 400, Peak Milk of 170 is now 350, when will we have sense?? Is it that we have short-term memory in this country or are we cursed? How can anyone in their sane minds be wishing Osinbajo good luckhuhhuh I understand that we don't like Tinubu, but should we then crown a serial failure because we want to spite Tinubu that's already a billionaire? Who will loose at the end? Why can't nigerians think? We have fresh minds like Peter Obi, Fela Durotoye and co. Why then do we have to narrow down our options to a proven failure and an aged crook?
That is why it’s called democracy. Everyone have their choice of president (Some might even want Kwankwaso, while another random person might want Peter Odili). Their choices’ might be baffling but it’s democracy.
