Wahala. It is not impossible. If the community can come and tax you when you try to drill your own borehole, nothing sounds strange again.

I will happily pay the borehole tax. But i go tell them to go pound sand when they want to come and fetch water.

Rewiring and laziness... Haha

Currently its only the security light that is still left. We even used the inverter to iron for the first time and no issues.

I recharged my prepaid meter last in February 50k. That was prior to when I upgraded my inverter and batteries.

I leave the connections to grid and gen intact as a back up plan in case of device failure or extended cloudy days beyond my 2days autonomy.

See my load profile on a typical day. Notice those peaks. Those are boiler and microwave usage.

My usage is 10.7kWh for that day and this would go up because we didn't use washing machine that day and 2 people traveled. Work that on Bandit A for the month.

Thank you for your detailed explanation. I plan to be like you when I grow up.

This week we got news that we have finally been dumped on Bandit A.

I immediately removed some of the few things still left og EKEDC to inverter.

1. Electric boiler - moved
2. Microwave - moved
3. Outdoor security lights - Pending when electrician comes
4. Washing machine - partially. I use extension box.

Observation.
-So far so good, its going well.
- I recorded harvest peak at 3.3kW for the first time too.
- My solar panels are split in two separate locations. The ground mounted has started seeing better radiation.

Madam, I am curious about something. I could be wrong, but you seem to have the means to go totally off-grid. So, what's stopping you?

Thank you very much. I'm kinda having a mixed thought about it tho. I have read reviews and most of it complain about the terriible battery life.

Battery life is not spectacular. But online reviews can be far from the actual reality.
Considering what it offers and the price, this phone makes a lot of sense. Or you could get 200-250k and get yourself a Pixel 6A

I'm sorry to bother you.

How was your experience with Pixel 4XL?
Was the battery much of a problem?

Please, briefly tell me what it was like?

I intend to get a phone with my little savings. My current phone is showing old age.

Thanks.

Hello! The Pixel 4XL is my main driver. It is a really excellent phone and the camera is out of this world. Camera zoom is limited though, cos no be the latest flagship be this. The battery is average and when charged to 80 percent plus should last you a day if you don't do much with it.

The face unlock is part of what I love about this phone and it will accurately unlock your phone in complete darkness.

mustyNEMESIS:
This thread motivated me to start cooking… I just started cooking last year. The biggest motivator is GboyegaD”. His food post always make me look lazy… so I started watching YouTube channels how to make naija foods… that’s how I started cooking… and guess what?? I enjoy it to the fullest… I work from home, so I have all the time to cook and try different naija dishes…. And today, I cook all my food myself…. Even though nah only me dey eat the food for the house…. I used to pay a lady to cook those soups for me, but not anymore…: my soups now make sense pass the ones they used to make for me lol…

So yes, this thread is a big motivator… Infact, I registered an account with Nairaland because of this thread. I’ve been a visitor here for over 12 years…

Love how GboyegaD dey arrange food for plate. Like an artist. It's always beautiful to see.
Haven't yet jumped into cooking a lot. But will snap and post when I do.

Passing thread through the eye of a needle teaches an important lesson, if you're observant to minor things like me.

It teaches that, sometimes we need to calm down, relax and take things slowly with keen attention otherwise, we would miss the whole point and end up struggling for little/tiny things as small as the eye of a needle.

Yeah, light might be very good where OP is, but that could very easily change tomorrow. Or the FG might wake tomorrow and decided to triple power costs.

Hi OP. Let me tell you something- fuel price like everything else will increase sooner or later. Add engine oil price and maintenance price and you will see that generator does not make any kind of sense in this Tinubu economy.
Since you have very regular power, what I would do if I were you would be to contact Cooldipo/Alejobs and get one of his MPS powerbanks, the bigger and more capable the better. Once you have that, start saving money to get 1 or 2 600W solar panels, sachet inverter and charge controller. This is because in case power supply in your area starts getting bad, you can get a technician to hang solar panel for you that will be recharging your Cooldipo powerbank.

I think different people have different soups they call black soup. In Nigeria, the Ondo and some part of Edo people particularly, Ikale have their black soup cooked with Eweta leaves. Some other part of Edo have their own that is a mix of Scent leaves, Bitter leaves and a mix of other vegetables. In this case where I have to improvise, I use Scent leaves, Bitter leaves, and Spinach.

Make you own thread and post there your opinions , do not litter here

I just saw the first 2 lines and was all smiles
The irony, Arabs and Muslims in the same line

By Muslims I guess non Arabs

Do you know what Arabs think about muslims from Africa, and those from asia too, or even what asian muslims think about african muslims ?

Every human wants leverage, sense of superiority, same with Arabs, they see and believe themselves as the original Muslims, and are loathe to consider the converts as equal, after all majority of the converts are descendants of slaves or subjugated people, and into that bring in skin color , the delusions about co-religious brotherhood won't last a second in real life.

Not that its my business heck even the Palest.inians for whom you are ass licking so much won't consider you worth deserving of an iota of respect after they achieve their aims. Everyone welcomes the gullible fool.

Power is based on differences, be it religious, be it race , be it skin color , be it language , be it tribe etc so play with fire with the understanding you or your descendants will end up suffering the same fate.

If you think you know south asian muslims or christians for what they are , good for you. I hope you get the opportunity to suffer at theirs hands, provided you escape what is happening in your own country. That would be real irony. Yet you go poking your nose into affairs of others.

Islamists countries actually killing muslims in large scale, no problem, but secular countries killing muslims who desrve to be killed is problem ? Too much entitlement ?

Citizens of Islamic countries or defacto Islamic countries should be the last to lecture others.

What's the point in dancing on the legacy where ones identity is eventually the result of slavery and subjugation. You think you free ? Be my guest, but real life will more than teach you the reality one way the other

Biggest comedy is idiots taking SM seriously, olodos will cry when they realize millions of comments are engineered on both sides via various means.

Even bigger mumus are those who think they know about other countries, they irony your ass is on fire yet you are more opinionated on the ass of others.

Concerned about south asian muslims grin
I spent my entire life observing them as part of job, so godforbid if you end up in their clutches ,they will first go for your family ie female members, special debauchery bec of skin color , all in front of you, rest I will leave out.

You might ask am I sure, I will say 90% sure, why because bad habits across generations, it is in their blood, they loathe themselves, inferiority complex which they hide bec they know they are the descendants of r@pe victims and weak people. Same psychology as to why a young victim of s@xual abuse more often than not ends up becoming a se@xual predator, far worse.

If you have something called decency, self respect, do not show yourself here again

"India has become a destination of choice for Israelis, particularly twentysomethings on their rite of passage backpacking trip abroad. Eli Sneh, head of Consular Affairs for the Israeli Embassy in Delhi, estimates that some 80,000 Israelis visit India each year – a number, he says, that is growing.
So what is it about India that has captivated so many Israelis?" grin grin grin

They share the same ideology that's based on a pathological haate for Arabs and Moslems. India has over 200 million Moslems and under Modi and his Hindutva policy has spent the last few years demonizing, persecuting and denigrating them. What they don't seem to understand is that 200 million is a lot and if the Moslems get fed up and start fighting back, the country is gonna be in deep trouble.

I remember an Indian going to Israel several months ago. He hated Arabs and was expecting to be welcomed with open arms. But they wouldn't even serve him in the bars.

On Twitter, Indians keep trying to famz Israelis and get insults for that. A few years back, Israelis even established restaurants in India from which Indians were banned.

[/b]PRESS RELEASE ON ATTACK ON TROOPS OF OPERATION UDO KA AT CHECKPOINT IN ABIA STATE ON 30 MAY 2024[b]

Troops of OP UDO KA deployed at Obikabia Junction Checkpoint in Obingwa Local Government Areas adjourning Aba metropolis in Abia State were attacked and sadly killed by terrorist of IPOB/ ESN. The troops deployed to enforce peace in the area and protect the citizens were massed attacked by the terrorist. The terrorist in 3 tinted Prado Toyota SUVs and others from builtup areas surrounding the checkpoint, sprang a surprise attack on the checkpoint.

The attack sadly took the lifes of 5 personnel of the armed forces killed in action. The armed forces mourns the death of these troops as each and every soldier lost in battle is a terrible loss. Meanwhile, investigation are ongoing concerning the attack.

Overall, it must be reinterated that the lifeline of the terrorist is the people and this situation is no exemption. Winning the war without the support of the people is close to impossible. The IPOB capitalised on this to perpetrate attacks on the troops. The situation leaves more to be desired.

Accordingly, it is absolutely imperative that the military retaliate against this dastardly act against troops. The military would be fierce in its response. We would bring overwhelming military pressure on the group to ensure their total defeat.

EDWARD BUBA
Major General
Director Defence Media Operations

Negodu press release. Does this sound professional to any of you? How does retaliating on civilians make any sense and why can't they go after the guys who actually attacked the checkpoint?
Have they checked CCTVs around the place to find out what these guys look like and stuff like that? No, of course not. They intend making civilians pay and this kind of thing will massively backfire soon.

I do not supoort oppression on the general populate or innocent civilians, but the IPOB and killing of uniform men is getting out of hand the South. This was out terrorism started in the N.E, I don't see anything wrong in this show of force, it's not has if the T129 ATAK helicopters was raining down fire on a neighborhood or an area.

And how do you know it has only been deployed to the Southern part of Nigeria, these are hardware that could be rapidly deployed anywhere.

Lastly I saw the video of NA arresting civilians and of which most where women, on my own side I condemn these andbits somehow unprofessional. But keys look at the other side of the coin, when such arrest are made they will get valuable information from this arrested people. Because this IPOB militant are not ghost and they are people's relative, who live among humans too.

For me I see nothing bad in deploying these assets to hot conflicts zones, they could be quickly deployed to other theatres too.

Oga mi, nothing in our constitution grants the NA the power to arrest civilians. So, why are they so casually breaking the law while in pursuit of lawbreakers? So many of those they are arresting will be t0rtured, others repped and some will disappear never to be seen again. Like this same thing has happened many times before, so we all know how it ends for those unlucky enough to be arrested.

Is it that the NA does not know that going after bad guys in this way will only win them more support? When IPOB comes to where these mass arrests took place and starts saying that the NA is out to exterm1nate igbos, won't all the listeners take them seriously? Hasn't the NA learned anything and why do they love repeating glaring mistakes?

The job of the NA is to defend our territorial integrity and not to be arresting civilians, shaving guys with dreads or closing plazas.

Imagine a valuable asset like this and it is not being used to go after the 100K bandits out there who are making things hard for everyone via food price increases and insecurity. Instead, the asset is being used to terrify the civilian population. Wonderful.

See, 5 NA were keeled at a junction in Aba. The proper thing to do would have been to trace the keelers. There are videos of these guys out there and face recognition software, plus other gizmos would be more than enough to pick up their trail and eliminate them. In fact, the whole IP0b, Boko Haram and bandit thing should have been wrapped up years ago if we had serious governments.

Instead, those gunmen in Aba were allowed to kee and go unhindered, with the NA coming much later to pack civilians who were nearby when these NA were keed. What law hands the military the power to arrest and detain civilians? What law gives them the power to dictate how civilians should dress and look? Can they not see that when they act like they are above the law, they lose respect, inspire resentment, contempt and anger?

When these gunmen strike again, you will see people hailing them and I don't blame them.
