Latakia:
And in another news Peterrorist Obi Pandora aka Naanu said certificate doesn't matter. He said this after been exposed of not having a degree certificate..

Naanu only submitted his GCE to INEC and submitted another degree certificate to Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. It has also been confirmed that the social media certificate he submitted was issued on Saturday a none working day and carried no official stamp and seal. The certificate was confirmed to be fake.

I think you are a paid charlatan. Its obvious from the way he talks and behaves he went to a university. And IF YOU YOURSELF WENT TO A UNIVERSITY AND GRADUATED, you would realize there is no stamp on the NYSC certificate (google pictures of it) or CHECK YOUR COPY IF YOU REALLY HAVE ONE. Then ask those with UNN certificates... but best of all, google it... Abi google lie pass you?

With the spread of the new corona variant - Omicron, countries around the world have been put on alert. Part of what they are doing to fight the virus is to put bans on flights into their country. These bans have been placed on many countries and one of the most affected happens to be Nigeria. According to travelban.org, Nigeria has over 53 bans from out of 243 countries. The issue has never been about the ban in particular but the way the ban has been placed. That is, Airlines originating from some of these countries can come over to Nigeria but Airlines from Nigeria are banned from entering their country. It also means that only their airlines have the monopoly of "not having the virus" or something like that. But this is clearly stamping out the competition and only allowing their country's airline to benefit. As the BBC in a report put its: "there is now a travel apartheid". Strangely, South Africa is among countries banned from entering the UK.

So as Nigeria plans to ban flights from Argentina, Britain, Canada and Saudi Arabia from this week, in retaliation for "being added to those countries' red lists over the detection of the Omicron coronavirus variant"; what do we say about these countries? Before then, how has the level of vaccination from the virus being and are people really adhering to taking it before traveling from Nigeria? News Agencies like Reuters in their COVID-19 tracker report, say that Nigeria's vaccination as of 9th December was barely 2.8% of the population for every 2 injections taken. Travelban.org puts its at less than 5% of the entire population. This is compared to Egypt which has about 21% vaccinated and South Africa which has over 23% vaccinated. Although, this is better than Cameroon which has only about 1.8% and Niger which almost have no data on the population vaccinated. With such low vaccination penetration one can wonder if there should be any Nigeria travelling out of the country at all?

I started this write-up in Opera Hub. But apart from that, I really want some more ideas on how one can avoid One Chance in Abuja. These are the most common I known and have told been from experience (like the individuals got robbed, so they take this particular precautions). I believe One chance occurs in other cities in Nigeria most especially Lagos, but these ones are the ones are know that work in Abuja.

As Abuja city has some unsafe areas or scary individuals, with space, areas or people who police or the security personnel are not able to notice; it calls to reason that citizens dwelling in Abuja should also have their own way to look after their safety when they board taxis. Most especially with “One Chance” or the kidnap, rob and dump activity that happens in a while in Abuja.
It’s interesting to note that the author, a newbie in moving to certain places in Abuja City (which I assure you is very wide compared to Lagos), was advised by some victims of one chance on how to avoid it. So let’s start.
Early last year, a lady residing in the suburbs of Abuja, in Kaura, got herself into a vehicle that stopped half way through their journey to her destination and it branched into a lonely path. There, the driver and the other two occupants of the vehicle, removed weapons and proceeded to rob her of her valuables, which included phones and the likes. She luckily did not resist them, so they pitied her and left her with N500 to use as transport. They then drove and abandoned her inside a bush along the Gwarinpa – Kubwa express way. This story is an example of a person who suffered from ONE CHANCE in Abuja, and for those who struggle or resist the thieves, the story is slightly different. Anyway, from this experience and those of others, you realize that there is a pattern to which you can avoid ONE CHANCE in Abuja.
1. Get use to entering vehicles at the park or designated parks where you notice the drivers and even the touts as it may be, know each other. Entering a vehicle passing by or “ALONG” can be risky in the far areas where the roads are sort of lonely.
2. If you can find a vehicle, look for Brekete Family Taxi. This is not an advert, but the BFT vehicles’ are mostly known to be safe and all registered; as such it is rare to hear of someone who suffered “ONE CHANCE” in a Brekete Taxi!
3. If you can afford it, use BOLT or UBER taxi services. Actually this is nice, because they practically pick you at your door step and stop at your destination…and can enter almost any estate without being stopped.
4. When you are not sure of a vehicle you are about to enter in, ask for the price. If the driver mentions something, haggle lower. If he accepts without arguing or a hitch…back out immediately.
5. Sometimes, looking at the occupants of a vehicle and discovering its only men inside can be a trigger (still in a case I know, the lady didn’t know that there was a man hiding inside the booth of the car till the driver stopped to supposedly check a fault).
6. Also if someone drops so you can seat in their middle. It’s better to refuse.
I believe there are still other ways to avoid one chance in Abuja. So, what do you think? What’s your own advice?

Is it me or people are blind? They said he insulted pmb AND THE GOVERNOR. In ebonyi or so, the governor too had someone locked, claiming he insulted pmb and the governor! Blame the governor not pmb! I dont like pmb but clearly governors use his name for devious sh-(?t...

I recently got a letter from Russia from a cousin who wishes she could talk to our president...her and her friends have had serious problems with funds right from the year they entered Russia on scholarship in 2013 (not their fault, no one told them you fend for yourself once you are on a Nigerian/Russian scholarship)...I wanted to edit it but...I guess its best the president sees the situation/pain in her words ...So here is Faeren Adzege, Best student of Set 2008 (I think) in Baptist High Jos, Russian Doctor in the Making talking...

Dear President, Our Daddy, our Uncle
Year in year out, it is the same ordeal for us. Was this part of the agreement we signed or am I being punished for performing excellently as a scholarship student? Then I ask, "do the men and women of power treat their own children this same way?" I mean, ten months of unpaid stipends with only nothing but debt, debt and even more debt lurking around me. I heard the 2016 budget has been signed, why then haven't we been paid till now? Who have we offended to be treated this way?
My name is Adzege Faeren and I am a Nigerian scholar currently studying in Russia under the Bilateral Education Agreement (BEA) scholarship scheme.
Three years ago, I was sent to Russia to study Medicine with many mouth watering promises accompanying it. One of them was the promise of monthly stipends from the Nigerian government. However, this promise has never been a reality for us. I am most certain that many people reading this letter are already familiar with this yearly outcry from scholarship students abroad, but, I will still cry anyway.
For the past ten months, we have not received any single support from the Federal Government of Nigeria in form of stipends. What's even more disheartening is the fact that the Russian government ALWAYS fulfil(s) their own part of the bilateral agreement i.e paying our tuition and giving us some monthly support (5% compared to the stipend we are supposed to receive from the Nigerian Government), yet our fatherland Nigeria forgets about us totally.
The inability of the Nigerian Government to pay our stipends in time have left us borrowing and owing. With a new session in view, scholarship students are left with the option of getting money through various illegal means or risk being thrown out of our hostels and subsequently getting deported. Also, we need to renew our health insurances and buy warm clothes in preparation for winter. Unfortunately, we can't get these done on credit.
Or is it the case of the undergraduate students who just finished their scholarship program (majority with first class honours), who are forcefully trapped in Russia as they haven't received plane tickets and the rest of their stipends so as to go back home? A lot more cases, worse stories, yet our parents at the top are undisturbed or don't even know at all.
This leads me to wonder, "will the president, vice president, senators, minister or whoever it is, treat us this way if we were their own children?" I am certain most of their children school abroad. What I'm not certain about is if their children are owed monies for this long or even owed at all by their parents.
Please, mummy and daddy, think of us as your own and do what you will to your own children, onto us. If not for anything but for the fact that we are all Nigerians and we, your children are doing you proud in our various institutions, in Russia. PLEASE, CROWN OUR EFFORTS WITH STIPENDS. When all the conditions are favourable, we will do even more to bring more glory to our great country. All we seek is to be thought of as human beings (who need money for daily survival), to be paid our arrears and please, for the payment to be made constant.
Thanks.
Your loyal daughter,

Either some of don't understand what is going on. Mandela's ANC really had terrorist inclinations, and that was the reason he as a person divorced his first wife. It is said that she kidnapped, killed and even did some horrible things which Mandela in prison did not approve of. If you watch the movie of Mandela (the old one) you would realize that at the beginning he was of the violent type...destroying electricity masts...but he changed. Still the past does have a way of catching up with us.

I started a blog page which is on Nigerian Black lover, its on google blogger and would want anyone interested in blackberry to read more on black berries there. You could get to comment on what u think there.

Yes, I have created a blog...it is just on how to write academic projects most especially nigerian ones. Here I will discuss a lot of what is actually done and later I guess discuss how we can make money writing project proposals which is something else. Believe me, it is a joy to research and write projects. SO catch up with me at howtowriteprojects..com . Yep, we will catch up fun there. and Yes, you want me to help you, catch me at gabrielagema@gmail.com or 08132094169

Check this new joint for how to write your academic projects without problem, it will be a news source for such and would even assist you if you need help simply by posting on anything writing indicating you help.

Never wrote such, but of course I should have been 13 or 14 by then and it was till I was 15 that I realize that one needs to lie down on a bed and .....before a baby can be created.

Modems to use depend on the best network in an area, like in the north using MTN or Etisalat modems is a sick thing to do but they are both cheap less than 6k. Then Glo which goes for 10k plus is really good but so is airtel. If you live in Abj, Lag, KD or Ph, Kano or any of the major cities I think is best to stick to Starcomm because of their pricing plan also...anyway, why not use your phone as a modem and let all these modems sellers die of hunger, I mean it really is better

If people in my working place did not see me reply this I would be killed by monday, it is almost three months I have been without a phone and naturally when I had one, it is was 60% off most times.(Somebody here says 93%) but for laptop, I say one week is the highest I can go without or else I have to rush to a cybercafe and feel my high I think

To me, I think they can but that is as unnatural as you having a friend and he never asks you for anything. Even if he doesn't you find a way to give him something or two. So not asking it is not the problem, probs is, any giving

I have read what the others said on this but look, I would have told you to find about a little more about him, if he is free then go ahead try finding how to hook him but if he is not get the hell out of the area, another issue I hope lust isnt working on you because it means a lot of we the men might get cosy with touches and stuff and it could change you thinking like if they mean it, whatever it is I think this aint true love

I think its that of 100 - 1, Nigeria vs India, and immediately I see that I use to guess that person is over 25, just kiddin but forget Thunder Balogun, it seems that person might be much older, yes, phone rumour that person is, whatever, I still stick with the Indian one

I think this new group is being trained or masterminded by Jack Bauer

Hmm, I am one of those movie addicts, few people born in the 80's that hasnt watched Good, the bad and the ugly, strangely I have the proposal, deception and some other movies in my ipod that am yet to watch, reason, lets finish the 24, legend of the seeker, 4400 and Naruto series,

The person who wrote this must be a guy, it sort of doesnt have a female touch, But any way, I like it , I ll try it,

If it will give you tears and you are not married , Yes. But if you are married, abstain from sex but keep the person around. He or she will understand the message

IF I love her and she loves me, why wont I at least its better than having a secret affiar

Because I have a friend who enjoys making girls his friend but he has a girl he calls his true love. And from the way the girls behave i have had to warn him and say boys and girls can't just be friends!

David in the bible told A Lady once because you came for your husband sake you are lucky, I would killed him and his whole family. I dont have that power to do (or even the thinking plus moral capacity to do that)what I paraphased but, the issue is anger causes us to do and write unthinkable things, I wonder what I wanted to do. Anyway, Gabry, thanks

When was her or his message posted and when did I post mine or when did I register with nairaland, so I prepared over 2 years just to answer that message.Help me with sick nigerians who are not trusty themselves, besides whats wrong if I claim that Gab is my name?

Learn to respect people's phones no matter what, if you want to see it, ask the person for his phone.He or she says no don't struggle. If you ever get the chance to see what is inside never let the person know you did. It keeps you safe and trust worthy. From what you say I guess ,

, he, he , he where are you? Infact I love such thigs it just makes the world more friendlier, and except she doesn't put her hand close to your, But still I , whatever

, My name sake
