Adverts / Re: Shop At Ease Anytime Via Aascargo: Woow by gbrandy: 5:34pm On Apr 26, 2012
I don't think so Hauwaf, these guys are genuine and deliver as promised, their charges covers your customs and delivery from USA to Nigeria door. we shouldn't kill every Nigerian business tagging them fraud. if you have any issue with your shipment call them and resolve it. I dont think they are fraud at all. infact they are doing a good job. A lot of people have used and continue to use them. I have no issue with them

Politics / Re: Subsidy War: Expect Mother Of All Strikes From Monday –– Labour by gbrandy: 4:37pm On Jan 14, 2012
@duality. Thank you for that comment. what a man does not know is bigger than him. The Issue we are facing @ the  moment in Nigeria is a very complex one. The president is up against forces and corrupt established strongholds. Oil matter is a serious matter any where in the world, democratic nations whose main revenue come from oil  have all had to battle against these cabals. some countries like some in the Arab world who succumb to supremacy of the elites (kings) e.g Dubai, Saudi etc. sort of have relative peace because the people have given up to the power that be.

Nigerian oil pricing, allocation and revenue sharing is a matter that all democratically elected presidents will have to contend with as long as oil remain the main source of income, except such president will have some residaul military influence like Obansanjo to suppress ( which is undemocratic) to achieve results such as that of the arabs, it is in reality a difficult issue to deal with. Goodluck is trying to be different, do what in the long term some few deep thinkers will say is bold move. My concern is the approach and the cohorts like the overzealous  Petroleum Minister Diezani.

The subsidy should not be there in the first place, it is only increasing avenue for NNPC bosses to steal public funds. We only have to read the KPMG forensic report on NNPC to have a little idea of what I call the 'stronghold'. why should we swap crude for refined PMS?, how do we account for the swapped crude and the returned refined products?, how can Ivory Coast maintain a refinery and refine for Nigeria and Nigeria cannot bring theirs up to scratch?, Who are these importers of refined PMS and how are they prequalified for the contract award? How do NNPC settle the federal account (remittance), what exchange rate do they use? NNPC keep record on excel spread sheet, and obtain exchange rate by telephone from CBN with which they remit money to Federation account. can you imagine!!

NNPC calculate and apply subsidy on behalf of the states and federal govt and remit what they deem fit irrespective of what is approved or projected. Jonathan will have to start some where to do the right thing. He has to close all these siphoning loop holes, now that is  serious war for him like we are experiecing now. In 2012 budget I learn no room for subsidy, that is good. next stage is to clean up NNPC and get our refineries working. In full capacity the three refineries and some proposed private refineries can meet domestic needs. we will buy fuel for even less than N65/litre if we allow this subsidy thing to go away for good, so that the atrocities and inefficiency of NNPC can be exposed and we will all know know who to blame. They use subsidy to gather billions of dollars and cover up their inefficiency. If we can apply 'public use' allocation of crude properly, refine it in Nigeria and sell to recover cost of production and refining, we will only have to pay N40/litre for petrol but fellow Nigerians that will not happen if we continue in subsidy.

There has to be disorder before order. I pray may that be Nigeria's case in this matter. Sorry I did not mean to be the devil's advocate.
Food / Re: Drinking/sippin Garri. Is It Gud Or Bad? by gbrandy: 5:53pm On Jan 12, 2012
Gari is made from casava and there is a specie of casava that contains traces of cyanide in the skin (peelings), traces of this poisonous substance could filtrate into the finished product (gari) depending on how it is made. Now boiling and baking gari into eba could to a large extend disintegrate/eliminate this substance, but drinking it cold could mean you are taking in this substance and in large quantity could cause food poisoning which could be fatal. Now it is very unlikely occurrence but there are possibility of it happening. Also, drinking gari and poor eye site as a side effect is a possibility and so is obesity due to the high cab content. I will drink gari but not as regular as eating it in the eba form
