Hello peeps,

How long does a bold 2 battery last on the average & how much does it cost to get a new one? mine doesn't even last up to 5hours these days. it is time to repalce the battery? just wondering. . .

The Chop & quench monster is on his heels again,



THE Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) yesterday at the Federal High Court, Benin Division preferred a 58-count charge of unlawful conversion and criminal diversion of N25 billion against former Governor of Edo State, Chief Lucky Igbinedion during his reign in office. EFCC’ Head of Media, Femi Babafemi confirmed the development, but declined details. But a source within the commission said Igbinedion’s trial is expected to commence next week.He added that should the former Governor fail to appear for trial, the commission would proceed with legal processes to track and arrest him.

He said the 58-count charge against Igbinedion had formed a legal premise for the commission to solicit the assistance of the International Police (INTERPOL) in tracking and arresting him.

The source, who said the anti-graft agency has already issued a watch-list signal round Nigerian borders regarding the former governor said the commission is confident that Igbinedion would be nabbed soon.

“We have placed him (Igbinedion) on a watch-list around Nigerian border towns and that decision to declare him wanted is a prelude to issuing an international arrest warrant on him to enable INTERPOL track him down wherever he is hiding in the world”, he explained.

He said: “Under the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) there is hardly any hiding place in the world for criminals and this fact is reinforced by how effective the INTERPOL has been over the years.”
He pointed to how Igbinedion’s counterpart in Delta, Chief James Onanefe Ibori was arrested in Dubai by INTERPOL after fleeing from Nigeria in a bid to avoid trial. He said a similar fate may befall Igbinedion whom he said sneaked out of the country last December when he got wind that EFCC had launched a fresh investigation against him. The former governor is alleged to have converted $6.2 million shares of the Edo State Government in AFRIBANK to his own while in office.

“Also, N120 million worth of shares of the state in Access Bank became Igbinedion’s equity without the approval of the House of Assembly or any law backing such a deal”, the source added.
The ex-governor also allegedly diverted over N300 million belonging to the state to himself to purchase Sheraton Hotel in Benin.

“We have uncovered how Igbinedion used state funds to acquire properties in Abuja, Sierra-Leone, Benin-City, London among others”, he stated.

He said: “We sent an invitation to him for a routine interaction but he had an inkling that maybe we had new allegations against him and he quietly sneaked out of the country.”

(Adds details)

LAGOS Dec 14 (Reuters) - Greek Coke bottler Coca-Cola Hellenic (CCH) (HLBr.AT: Quote) plans to buy out the Nigerian Bottling Company (NBC.LG: Quote) and turn it into a wholly-owned subsidiary, a filing with the Nigerian Stock Exchange said on Tuesday.

Shareholders in the Nigerian Bottling Company (NBC), which holds the Coca-Cola franchise in Africa's most populous nation, will receive 43 naira ($0.28) per share under the deal. NBC would then apply to be delisted in Nigeria.

NBC said in the filing that the proposed deal would give minority shareholders a 37.4 percent premium to the 30-day average closing price of its shares. NBC shares closed up the maximum 5 percent at 31.53 naira on Tuesday.

CCH, the world's second-largest bottler of Coca-Cola (KO.N: Quote), already holds more than 65 percent of NBC, according to analysts' reports. The deal is subject to shareholder approval.

Just wondering what this would portend for NBC. . .

scam . . .run for your lifeeeee!!!

Yes Poster! to answer you question. It works if you are with the right group. I guess the one you are signing up for is the regular 3rd party insurance.

anyways. . . I hope it is genuine? cos I understand there is also another category of insurance called 'police let me pass'. this type is only acquired for documentation purposes only.

still available. . .

this man don suffer. . .make una leave baba alone now. . .

no wonder. I tried to reach some1 earlier today & i heard an Indian lady telling me crap. . .that the airtel subscriber I am trying to reach is not available.

make I catch that woman 1st. . . rubbish people!

person no know who beta pass sef between the arabs and these indians.

can't possibly remember. . .but I know it was definitely before the hype about the millennium bug in the year 2000 cos my first e-mail address was ******1999@onebox.com;

we pray he does not export corruption to the west like our brother Amos Adamu just did.

@poster,

Please upload pics of this ride.

Congrats falcons! u've done it again! POWER!!! PRIDE!!! NAIJA!!!

I see the poster maintains his ride just as he maintains his car!

how nice!!

By the way, this topic aught to be in the family section~

men!! 5-1 and to think that I dreaded Cameroon before the game!

Well, kudos girls!

I drive a manual 'cos of the verve! it's so much fun when there's no traffic. Apart from the traffic issue, I don't think it's got any other disadvantage.

Well said sienna!

@Poster, even if u hit a lotteru today of a $1billion, it wont bring back respect from this particular woman. "She don see u finish"! U need to redeem your image. Maybe you should start by looking inwards at the way you've been playing your part as a spouse and as a father. Have haven't u done right? or what have u omitted?? My people say 'Monkey smart, monkey smart, Na because trees dey close to each other".
While I detest divorce especially under circumstances like this, ol boy, this na ur battle! U've got to fight it out like a man.

! Sounds like a story from a Nigerian home video! May God help u! i am indeed speechless.

Though this should be in the family section, This would have made bigger news if it were coming from Africa and some Arab country. . .

I wonder why the poster opened a thread for this? Is anyone disputing that ALAO AKALA is the undoubtedly the worst governor in Africa??

The bleaching governor of Oyo state,
Chairman Bleachers association of Nigeria (BAN).

C'mon, this guy deserves more than this! Can someone please upload "beautiful pictures" of the ancient pictures of Ibadan? So we can see his 'wonderful works".

hello mate,
