RIP to him, but this guy was enlightened enough to know he should demand for a life jacket if he's to ride on a boat. Safety first, use a life jacket while on a boat or ferry, no matter how convincing the operator of the boat sounds, don't go on a boat ride without a life jacket if you're not a good swimmer

They are Yoruba

They speak Yoruba and answer Yorùbá names
Like their kindreds in Ondo State, communities in Àkókò Edo have distinct languages that varies from one community to the other, Yorùbá is just a língua franca in Àkókò land. For example, Epinmi Àkókò and Ishua Akoko are towns in Ondo state with a distance of less than 10 kilometers to each other but they speak different languages. while in Àkókò Edo wé have some communities that speak Ebira among other languages

He isn't desperate but he came 3rd and he's claiming he won, he's been going everywhere breaking fast with moslems, donating boreholes to communities in the north. It's now he's realizing northern and moslem votes are crucial to winning the presidency, last time he thought only the south and Christian votes are enough to get to Aso rock but the realities in the 2023 failure is making him desperate by going to demographs he neglected the other time

I am suspecting FG deliberately come up with this astronomical increase in tariff pretending it is for customers on Band "A" so as so test the waters. Anticipating a fight back by the people, they will slash the tariff to around 150 or 250 naira to appease the public but this time the tariff will be across board

Let's be sincere here, if we want any semblance of stability in power supply, the tariff has to go up, but with a caveat: all customers have to be metered. Without a cost reflective tariff there will little or no investment in the power sector.

Those who have ears, let them hear. And those who have eyes let them see. I have an aunt in her late 50s desperately trying to japa, a serving civil servant for that matter with a frail health. But to tell her all this will seem I'm discouraging her. What type of work does she think she can do abroad considering her age and not so sound health

Most Lagosians are not indigenes of Lagos, so students in tertiary institution fill in their state of origin. When it comes to indigineship, Lagos has the smallest population of indigines.

Properties › Re: What's The Labour Cost Of Plastering A Three Bedroom Flat by gabbasin(m): 8:03pm On Mar 19, 2024
It's a day job to plaster a room for a master bricklayer and one laborer, a 3 bedroom flat will make approximately 9 rooms depending on the size of the palour, dining area and kitchen. The outer area can be equivalent to 5 rooms. So just approximate the whole of the building to 15 rooms, master bricklayer @ 10,000 per room and the laborer @ 5000 per rooms makes 15k Labour per room. Times 15k by 15 and you will get 225k for the whole building. You can negotiate with your bricklayer with this calculation on your head, If you negotiate well, this can be done for less than 200k. Note that Bricklayer and labourer rates vary from one area to another

Only a fool will belive the story of the army guys going for peace keeping mission. That's what the government wants the media to tell you. That's what they want you to know.

For there to be a reaction of such magnitude, it means the fùck ups of the military guys deployed there don dey full. It was definitely a case of a deal gone wrong.
Even the fleeing members of the community under siege admitted that the soldiers were there on a peacekeeping mission and you are saying only a fool will believe the army narration.

Security vote being drawn by governors is meant to be siphoned, that's why when I heard some governors saying they won't collect salary, I just laugh on the ignorance of those who hail them for the decision. Those governors will get 100 times of that salary from the security vote. One of the steps to reduce corruption is to abolish the so called security vote
Politics › Re: Soyombo To Customs: Investigate The Murder Of 2 Anti-smuggling Informants by gabbasin(m): 11:46am On Mar 11, 2024
These smugglers are dangerous and murderous as they don't spare any informant either perceived or real, I was in the same Ado Odo years back driving around town when I realized I was being trailed by guys on motorbike, seeing a bike trailing me create fear in me thinking I am being trailed by robbers, I had to drive back to the town center, then these guys flag me down and ask me of my mission, I told them I am in town to attend a party, so they asked me the name of the celebrant which I did as the celebrant is a well known person in the town, they now let me go because they realized I am an innocent stranger. When I narrate my encounter to my host, he told me that the part of the town I was heading to when they started trailing me is a smuggling hub and there's a river nearby which is a smuggling route, and being a strange face in a strange car, I was taken for an informant or a security official on mufti. My host had to advise to be cautious driving around the town as I was lucky not being harmed before being challenged by the guys on motorbike
Politics › Re: Nigerian Government Owes N100 Billion In Electricity Bills – Distributors by gabbasin(m): 11:17am On Mar 11, 2024
Why are the indebted government agencies not metered? metering will go a long way to stop this level indebtness and enhance efficiency, but when the discos prefer crazy billing in the name of estimated bill rather than making sure customers are metered and pay according to consumption. It doesn't make sense when as a metered customer I consumed 2k worth of energy last month while my neighbour on estimated billing with less gadgets than me is billed 13k for same month. Seems the unmetered customers are paying for the discos inefficiency. To meter customers is now a challenge to discos, even if you want to pay to have the meter is still cumbersome and depends on availability.

Family › Re: Police Invitation; What Could Go Wrong At The Police Station? by gabbasin(m): 12:18pm On Mar 05, 2024
Afonja2000:
This my female colleague at work received a call from a female Police officer by name officer angel.

She informed her that her husband brought a complaint against her to the station and as a result her presence is required at the station.

It was when she got home tonight that the police Invitation was handed to her by a co-tenant.

Right now, she is contemplating if she should honor the invitation or not as she is not sure if the Nigerian police can be trusted.I suspect this your colleague is cheating on her husband with you as alleged

From what I could gather concerning her and her husband is that they have been married for less than two years. The foundation of the marriage was built on lies. The husband pretended to be what he wasn't during their courtship, which unfortunately lasted less than three months.

My colleague for reasons I'm yet to understand failed to make all the necessary enquiry concerning the man she was getting married to.

The man has been married before in which the first wife died as a result of maltreatment from the man and his family members especially from his mother and his elder sisters.

My colleague saw a completely different man from what she thought that she got married to in less than a month after their white wedding.
She was always treated like a slave by her mother in law and two of her daughters with broken marriages.

The husband always accused her of having extra marital affairs with no tangible evidence to back it up and usually have her locked out of their rented apartment.

This is actually the first time she stood up to her husband and the next thing he did was to report her to the police.

As an Accountant. I'm talking from experience. Stanbic IBTC pension states it clear in their letters that after 7 days without response they will pay their client. After all the money is no longer with the employer
My PFA too is Stanbic IBTC PENSION, and that's my experience in 2015. Maybe things have changed now.

Whether they acknowledge or not after 7 days of no response the pension fund administrator would go ahead and pay you your 25%.
in my own case, it took my former employer nearly 2 months to respond to my PFA. Every time I reach out to my PFA on the reason for delay, the reply I got is that my former employer hasn't responded.
