I have this 1998 camry V6 with mileage 160k. The recommended oil was 5w30. Pls which oil should I go for? Some said I should buy Nigeria Mobil full snythentic 5w30 or 0w40. Can I also use Mobil XHP .

Kindly suggest plsssss

Good one, however, I will always say this that until all the monies recovered from all these thieves are used to revamp most of our dead companies like Nigeria Papermills, Ajaokuta, suger companies, textile industries that are scattered all over Nigeria...
I will never rate this govt as such...
Youths are so many and are ready to work.
Collecting #30,000 stipend every month end can not solve our many problems.
Pls baba Buhari/ Prof. Oshibajo should use their minds and good offices to revamp dead companies, let Nigerians beginning to depend on things made in Nigeria...
I always imaging the quantity of A4 papers being used by companies and govt offices daily, and funny enough, we are not producing single sheet of paper... This is a big shame on a nation of over 200 million minds with empty space...
All our textile firms are grounded since useless Badamosi Babangida took over power... Now All of us are depending on clothing materials from China , Indonesia, Malesia etc...
I will like this govt to stop given youths stipend, but rather use the money to genuinely buy and fix up our industries...
Nigerians needs local things for our survival, we need locally made books in our offices and schools, we need locally made shies and cloth, we need locally produced rice with no stones... We can do it only if we start it now... God bless Nigeria and the Nigerians... Amen

Disguising as men of God...........

Cases of car theft have become common in Nigeria. Though not a new trend, car snatchers have continued to devise new methods to carry out their nefarious act. Below are some of the new tricks to watch out for:

Ladies as bait



In this method, car snatchers use ladies to lure men into giving them a ride. The lady tells the man that she is heading to a location. There, some men, who are her accomplices, will be waiting at the location to snatch his car.

This was what allegedly happened to 65-year-old Mr. Ganiyu Jimoh, who was killed after being robbed of his vehicle.

According to Jimoh’s widow, her husband, who she described as an accommodating man, never liked refusing a stranger a lift in his Lexus RX 300 SUV.

Two weeks before he went missing, Jimoh had informed his wife that he had given a young woman a lift and that they both spoke at length. He went as far as exchanging numbers with the lady and informing her about the cost of his car when the lady inquired.

The day he went missing, the lady had called the deceased on the phone and told him to pick her up if he was going to pass through her route around Jakande Estate, Lagos, where they had first met.

The woman, who denied any involvement in Jimoh’s death, told the police that two men had accosted Jimoh after they stopped to buy fruits. She said the men drove the deceased away in the car.

Phoney punctured tyre alarm

According to the Ogun State Police Command, thieves and car snatchers mount motorbikes along major highways in Ogun State particularly along Lagos/Ibadan, Sagamu/Abeokuta, Abeokuta/Lagos and Sagamu/Ijebu Ode/Benin, to perpetrate evil acts. They pretend to show sympathy towards road users and eventually snatch their vehicles.

The hoodlums, in most cases, flag down motorists, or raise the alarm of a punctured tyre or damaged portion on one’s vehicle .They eventually rob anyone who yields to their fake care or alarm.

Under the cover of gridlock

There have been several reports on how motorists, who found themselves in gridlock, were forced to abandon their cars after the firing of gun shots by car snatchers.

Azeez Abiodun, a member of a 20-man robbery gang, while being questioned at the Lagos Police Command headquarters, Ikeja, said his team specialised in snatching vehicles in the metropolis.

He also admitted that he and his gang preferred to operate during gridlock. Abiodun added that the gang usually stormed an area on motorcycles and fired gun shots in the air. In the process, motorists would flee the scene, abandoning their vehicles.

He said he and his gang would then pick the car of their choice and zoom off. At other times, he said the gang would stand by the roadside, pretending to be waiting for commercial buses before snatching a car.

Bashing victim’s car deliberately

If you are behind the wheel and another car hits you from behind, storming out for an argument may not be a good idea as the offender may be a car snatcher, reports say.

Recently, five-man robbery gang that had been terrorising female car owners around Lagos Island, notably Epe, Ajah, Lekki Peninsula, Victoria Island, among others, was apprehended by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Lagos State Police Command.

One of the suspects, who identified himself as Ndubuisi Chinedu aka Stephen, 23, from Onitsha Ugbo, Delta State, revealed that whenever the gang sighted their would-be victim, especially a woman, they would drive fast and hit the woman’s car at the back.

The intention is to make the woman stop her car and come out to see the extent of the damage.

Chinedu said they would then wait for the woman to walk towards her car. The moment she moves closer, two of them would enter the woman’s car and drive off; while others would follow in their car.

Using domestic servants

Car snatchers also rely on informants to execute their act. Their informants are usually domestic servants or persons that work closely with their victims. These informants feed them with all the necessary information they need, including their victim’s whereabouts.

A personal driver to a retired clergyman and three members of a suspected robbery syndicate that specialised in snatching exotic vehicles were recently arrested by police in Oyo State.

Abiodun Fadairo, 23, had only been two days on the job, when he invited his gang members to rob his employer, who lived in Iworo town, near Ijebu Ode, Ogun State.

The suspects, including one Friday Pius, who was a domestic servant to the sister of their victim, were said to have stormed the cleric’s residence at about 9:30pm on January 10 and collected the keys of his brand new SUV, a 2009 model, and foreign currencies comprising $170; 400 Euros and 34,000 Cedis.

Using fake mechanics

One Samson, who was among the five persons suspected to be notorious car snatchers within Benin City, Edo State, and environs, confessed that he usually disguised as a mechanic to help stranded motorists fix their vehicles.

He said he made away with the cars after the owner submitted the keys. The Edo State Police Command said a Lexus RX 300 SUV was sold by the gang for N120,000 and another new Lexus SUV for N500,000.

The suspects, Alao Samson, Christopher Obanugo, Okwuchukwu Ntagu, Dickson Ogiemwonyi and a spray painter, Godwin Atanu, were arrested after they snatched five cars from different individuals.

Two other snatched cars, a Ford Focus and Toyota Matrix, were sprayed to other colours.

Drugging car owners

Four months ago, 49-year-old Garuba Ibrahim, arrested by operatives of the Inspector- General of Police Special Intelligence Response team, Abuja, confessed that he specialised in drugging his victims before taking their vehicles. His operation usually happened within Abuja, Benue and Kogi states. Eight vehicles suspected to have been stolen from his victims were recovered from the suspect.

Narrating his first car snatching operation, Ibrahim said he boarded a private cab from Makurdi to Gboko. On the journey, he bought food for the driver; without him knowing that Ibrahim had put drugs in the food. As soon as the driver tasted the food, he began to feel dizzy.

Ibrahim then brought the driver’s floor mat for him to lay on it. Before then, he had asked the driver for his car keys to scratch his ear and he willingly obliged.

Posing with fake wounds

Car snatchers, according to reports, go the extent of faking wounds to arouse sympathy of unsuspecting victims. This was the case of an alleged car thief, who was nabbed after he went to a church in Aba, pretending that he was involved in a fire accident.

The alleged thief was exposed after a doctor named Okebugwu Nwankwo, called him out and proved that his wounds were fake. Two stolen vehicle car keys were found on him.

Disguising as men of God

Some motorists allege that their cars were snatched after they offered lifts to car snatchers disguised as evangelists.

A taxi operator in Edo State was robbed of his Golf GT car in this manner. He alleged that three middle-aged men with Bibles along Akpakpava Street beckoned on him to stop while he was on motion and asked him to drop them at a church located along Jemide, Government Reservation Area. They claimed to be rushing for a church programme.

As the taxi operator negotiated into an enclosed street, one of the men pointed a gun at him and asked him to stop the vehicle. Apart from his car that was snatched, he was also disposed of his phone and some amount of money.

Pretending as stranded passengers

On many occasions, Nigerians have been warned against giving strangers a lift. The owner of a recovered vehicle, Mr. David Oriakhi, fell victim to this trick after he offered a stranger a lift.

On the day of the incident, Oriakhi said he had left his boss’ place around 5am hoping to get to his house before 7am.

Around Victoria Garden City, Lagos, a young man waved at him and requested for a lift. Oriakhi decided to offer him a helping hand. But on getting into the car, the man pointed a gun at him and asked him to hand over all his belongings to him. He was then ordered to make a U-turn and head towards Epe.

Oriakhi was saved by some members of the Rapid Response Squad, who chased the vehicle after he intentionally rammed it into them and shouted for help as the man ordered him to continue the journey.

Increase in car theft cases

About three months ago, the Delta State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Zanna Ibrahim, said cases of car snatching among other criminal acts in the state had increased.

He, however, said the police were patrolling busy places within Asaba and its environs where the car snatchers frequent to check their activities.

Ibrahim said, “My word for armed robbers, car snatchers and others is to relocate elsewhere or face the wrath of the police.”

Within the same time frame, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Plateau State, Tyopev Terna, advised car owners to be vigilant.

This advice was spurred by the increase in the rate of car theft in the state.

He said, “There was a rise in reported cases of car theft. But we rose to the task and burst the syndicate, who wanted to rubbish our efforts at reducing crime in the state. I suggest that car owners get pedal or steering locks. One could also install modern tracking devices to help in the tracking of their property.”

Similarly, in Sokoto State, the state police command said there had been rampant cases of car theft in the state.

Describing the case as worrisome, the command said it was tackling the menace with the support of vehicles owners.

“We have been receiving reports of car theft and car snatching, I advise motorists to install a tracking device in their cars or use pedal locks that are cheaper and very effective,” the command said.

In December 2016, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed that 2, 544 vehicles were stolen between 2013 and 2015, out of which 1,377 vehicles were recovered, and this brings the national recovery rate to 54 per cent.

Further analysis of the NBS data shows that while the nation’s stolen vehicle recovery capability was five out of 10 stolen vehicles, only 14 states were able to achieve better results than the national average. Ekiti State topped the list while Kebbi State is at the bottom of the list.

Edo and Kaduna states’ police commands had 76 per cent and 75 per cent recovery rates indicating that they recovered eight out of every 10 stolen vehicles in their states. Ogun and Plateau states police commands could also recover seven out of every 10 vehicles stolen in their states. Gombe, FCT Abuja, Zamfara, and Taraba states had their recovery rates ranging from 61 per cent to 67 per cent while for Jigawa, Bauchi, Kano, Cross River and Borno states, their recovery rates of stolen vehicles range from 55 per cent to 59 per cent.

According to the report, Lagos is one of the states with poor stolen vehicle recovery capability.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Olarinde Famous-Cole, advised motorists to be more security conscious when plying the roads.

Famous-Cole said, “Drivers should make sure their vehicles are secure when they leave them and remove all valuables. Also think about where you park your vehicle – is it in a safe place? Well-lit, well-populated areas or car parks with security features such as CCTV and gated entry will give you greater peace of mind. Check that your vehicle is locked before leaving it. Listen for the locking noise, watch out for the lights to flash or mirrors to fold, or simply pull the door handle.”

Also, a security consultant, Mr. Bunmi Odukoya, warned motorists against giving strangers a lift.

He said, “Car snatchers, most of the time, act like stranded persons. If you feel kind enough to give someone a lift, ensure you are not the only one in the car. Car snatchers are devising new techniques every day; hence motorists must be extra careful.”

coolesmile:
What was he paying so much money for?

Hole...

Larwin:
1) If the total drill is 55m, the installer might decide to install at 45m. He ll use his own discretion anyway, considering the formation of the area, the volume of water and the yield. In some instances, you can install very close to the total drill depth if the formation down there is strong and rocky.

2) The pump to install also depends on the yield. But most driller always go for a 0.75hp. It's a medium pump and it won't be too high or low. Also brand is very important. There are some brand that there 0.5hp is more powerful than another's 1.5hp.

3) This means the discharging rate is higher than the recharging. The pump has sucked all the water in the hole. You will ve to wait for some minutes for the hole to recharge again.
You have to control the pumping so that it won't burn your sumo pump. You can get a flow switch. This will automatically break the circuit after 40min and allow the hole to rest and regain water then start pumping again.

I hope i was able to pass some light out.
Thanks.

Thanks bro...please where can I get the flow switch in Ibadan?

I have these questions to ask....

1. If my total drill is 55m...what should be the total meters of pipes to be install with the pump?

2. How many hp pump should be install? .5 or 1?

3. If you pump for like 40minutes and the pump stop pumping water while the pump is still running...what could be the problem and solutions...

Thanks

President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday changed a plan by which he was due to return to London this weekend for another round of medical treatment, barely two weeks after his return from a hospital there.


Instead, his doctors will be arriving on Friday to carry out further medical examination on him.

Sources at the Presidency informed SaharaReporters that the president’s advance party had already left Abuja earlier in the day by Ethiopian Airlines before they were recalled to Abuja.

Our sources say the hawks within the presidency advised against taking the president abroad so soon after his seven weeks away, as that would begin to feed the rumor mill all over again about his ailment.

In a short televised address upon his return, Buhari had hinted about returning to the hospital shortly, saying there might be a need “for further follow-up within weeks.” Given the topsy-turvy political climate in the country, however, his advisers felt it was unwise to allow him to stay away for too long.

The president has traveled to London several times since coming to power for a medical reason before traveling earlier this year for a prolonged medical treatment. He had also traveled there in June 2016, reportedly consulting with an ear, nose and throat specialist after he contracted an ear infection.

The latest developments come as pressure is mounting on the presidency to disclose how much was spent on his 49-day “medical vacation” in the United Kingdom, with Nigerians saying they have a right to know.

Activists, including well-known lawyer Femi Falana, and civil society groups such as the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, the Centre for Anti-Corruption and Open Leadership, and the Campaign for Democracy, among others, argue that the medical bill is of public interest because Buhari touted transparency and change in public affairs when he ran for the presidency

IN THE NASS THERE ARE LESSONS.

The election of Principal officers of National Assembly by the APC led government has a lot of lessons.

At the lower house, it was a party decision to have Gbajabiamila as the speaker but the likes of Yakubu Dogara, Jubril Mumini, Lasun Yusuf and their supporters had different agenda.

When it was election proper, Jubril Mumini from Kano state, with smiles in his face nominated Yakubu Dogara. At the end, Yakubu Dogara emerged winner in a house controlled by APC majority. Jubril Mumini was very happy that day, jubilating with Dogara while his APC loyal members were seen dejected. Jubril was compensated with appropriation chairman committee. A big river to swim.
He never knew that it was same river that would consume him.

Where is Jubril Mumini today?

Dogara and his cabals had sacrificed him.

Prior to lower Assembly election, the president had called the senators of APC to a meeting which many members attended in waiting.

To the surprise of Mr. President and APC loyal senators, Saraki, Alli Ndume and few APC senators connived with PDP to elect their own officers. Many APC senators never had the opportunity to determine their own leaders.

Saraki became Senate President, Alli Ndume lost to Ekweremadu as deputy Senate President but was later compensated with majority leader.

Then, between Saraki and Ndume the going was good.

Where is Ndume today?

Removed as majority leader and later suspended for 6months by his yesterday's friends.

Remember there is tomorrow for everything in life. For those that suspended Jubril and Ndume, there is tomorrow.

However, whether it is politicking or scheming, do good always so that tomorrow will be good for you.

Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has said he cannot join the All Progressives Congress, even if he decides to leave his current party, the Peoples Democratic Party.

Fayose, who spoke at a gathering in Ado-Ekiti on Wednesday, said the practice of “use and dump” adopted by the leadership of the APC would not allow him contemplate moving into the party.

The governor, in a press statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, cited the case of the National Leader of the APC, Senator Bola Tinubu, who worked tirelessly for the victo‎ry of the party in the 2015 general elections in the country, but was abandoned by those he helped to put in power.

He said, “Some people have been making overtures to me to join the APC, but I cannot join them. With what have they repaid somebody like Asiwaju Tinubu? He worked and helped the party to secure victory but has been dumped. That is not a party I would be interested in joining.

“One thing I would not allow is for anybody to rubbish our leaders in the South-West. Our leaders, including Asiwaju Tinubu must be accorded their due respect, as any attempt to rubbish them will be taken as a slap on the entire Yoruba race.”

The clarification by the governor came on the heel of crisis rocking the PDP at the national level in which Senators Ahmed Maka‎rfi and Ali Modu Sheriff are locked in battle over the national chairmanship seat of the party.

This is just as the governor said his administration would complete the rehabilitation of the federal Ado-Itawure Road before the burial of the late Military Governor of the old Western Region, Major-General Adeyinka Adebayo.

He also promised to rehabilitate the Ifaki-Omuo Road, another Federal Government road, to make access to the state more pleasurable.

On the need to ensure coordinated development for the state, Fayose said a master plan for Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, would be worked out.

He noted that the government would need the support of landlords and property owners, as the government would not want a situation whereby indiscriminate physical development would later turn the town to an eyesore.

He promised that a Landlords’ Summit would be conveyed to aggregate the opinions and input of landlords to the evolution of the master plan.

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control says it has arrested some members of a syndicate who specialise in the forgery of NAFDAC numbers, certificates and documents of other government agencies.

Disclosing this to the media in Lagos on Tuesday, the Acting Director-General, NAFDAC, Mrs. Yetunde Oni, who was represented by the Director of Enforcement, Mr. Kingsley Ejiofor, said among the documents recovered from the suspects were certificate of registration bearing forged signature of the acting DG of NAFDAC; documents from government agencies, including the Corporate Affairs Commission, Federal Inland Revenue Service, Federal Ministry of Justice and Federal High Court; as well as a payment verification form from a non-existent Barclays Bank.



Oni said the discovery was made after the agency investigated complaints from three countries about some Nigerians who posed as NAFDAC employees to process registration documents for intending importers of regulated products.

Complaints were received from the High Commission of Nigeria in New Delhi, India on behalf of a firm called Bharti Phosphates, a German manufacturer of pet food supplement and one Mr. Akeem from Tunisia, who wanted to confirm whether he should pay money to a company in Nigeria called Samjoe Ventures for the registration and shipment of 5,000 metric tonnes of calcium carbonate.

She said after investigation, it was discovered that the three cases were hatched and executed by an alleged international criminal group headed by Mr. Eze Okoronkwo, a resident of Aba, Abia State.

Oni said, “Okoronkwo had other Nigerian collaborators, Indian collaborators as well as nationals of Philippines, Tunisia, El-Salvador, the United States, Canada, Mauritania, Denmark, Mexico, Greece, Switzerland, Indonesia and Republic of South Korea, who all acted as brokers to the syndicate.

“The syndicate had collected the sum of $13,640, while there were plans to collect a further sum of $57,720.”

The NAFDAC DG added that the group sourced for brokers with dollar or euro account with a promise that the broker would be entitled to 30 per cent or 40 per cent of the proceeds of the venture.

“They contact the companies thereafter through their known websites. (E.g. European Union Distributors website). The victim is then gradually fleeced, while being presented with fake documents,” she added.

In a related development, the agency paraded a distributor of fake Peak Milk and a manufacturer of fake water used in mixing injections, while disclosing that it had raided the premises of one Mrs. Nkiru Okoro of Ezedams Nigeria Limited located along Kilometre 16, Badagry Expressway, Ojo, allegedly being used as a base for the production, distribution and sales of suspected counterfeit alcoholic beverages.

Oni added that on February 24, the Federal Task Force on Fake and Counterfeit Water Production arrested one Mr. Daniel Ezekwelu for allegedly producing fake water for injection in two compounds at Ojoto, a village near Nnewi in Anambra State.

She said, “During the raid, two under-aged girls were found filling and sealing the fake water for injection under Ezekwelu’s cover.

“Items recovered include plastic containers, gas cylinders and packs of the fake water for injection packed as 100 to 10m vials and labelled ‘sterilised water for injection BP’, with manufacturing date of 2015 and expiry date put at 2020, and said to be produced by Hossanna Laboratories Limited, Surrey.”

A transport vehicle containing several cartons of suspected counterfeit Peak Milk from the East was intercepted by the agency as it arrived Lagos by 4am on February 17, according to Oni, adding that the alleged owner, Onyekachi Ikegwonu, had been arrested.

All the cases, according to NAFDAC, will be transferred to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for prosecution.
