Ok question time:

1.If MTN is a reapoff y are they still having the largest number of subscribers.

2. Who are those still using the network even after knowing that it is a reapoff.

3. How do we deal with the situation,

To me the reason MTN has been able to stay in the market even after its clients knowing about their greed is stability. I have used all other GSM services (apart for MTEL) and I noticed that:

1. MTN is d only line that when u press d dial botton u hear someone on the otherside. Not hearing urself over again.

2. It does not take forever to check your balance or subscribe to any of their services.

I use other lines because they are cheap. But whenever I want to make an urgent call without dissapointment my MTN is there for me.

Most people will rather pay for a good xpensive product than manage a cheap bad one.

Mtn have the highest subscripbers which we use to recieve calls only:::::

workin hard to get money to purchase a wife cloth her and feed her, i think if there is going to be anoda life women should marry men!!!!!!

The fact is they are tire of the marraige, since less than 6 months both are dating, its tells alot about the marraige, the only problem here is the kids!!!!!

Pls and pls, the prince and mercy should say something, cos they are quite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The kind of proteins and nutrients that Fluid (spermatozom) contains can neva be exagerated,

That's gud from FG, wat of State and Local Goverment, because state and local government need the wage more than the federal workers. Imagine a teacher in local government wit a salary of 7500 monthly,,,, i dey vex!!

As simple, replace the 43,000 ghosh workers wit 43,000 unemployed youths, becos they money was been collected by some individual who created the ghost workers.

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has directed the Chief Executives of distribution companies to from Julyan of the last schedule of the 2008/2013 regime of Multi Year Tariff Order (MYTO) which increases the cost of electricity from N8.50 to N10 per Kilowatt hour.


A statement issued yesterday by the Media & Public Relations Unit of NERC quoted the NERC chairman, Dr. Sam Amadi as saying that the marginal increase was approved in 2008 adding, “We have the responsibility to inform the public as part of our commitment to transparency.”

It should be noted that the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) in line with the government reform system in the power sector is currently working on a new tariff system which is due to take effect from January next year.

The statement said that the Commission in its notice to Chief Executive Officers of electricity distribution companies on the take off date of 2011 schedule, warned them to ensure improved service delivery to their customers.

“The Commission hereby reminds you of the responsibilities owed your customers, particularly as regards its guidelines on Customer Complaints Handling, Connection and Disconnection Procedures, Customer Service Standards of Performance and Meter Reading.

We will be resolute and uncompromising in ensuring compliance and imposing sanctions on Chief Executive Officers and Managers of companies who fall short of the required standards,” the Commission said.

NERC in 2008 introduced MYTO to ensure that prices of electricity are predictable and to mobilize the required funds to the industry by attracting needed private sector investments through a tariff system that ensures fair return on investment, while protecting customers against profiteering.


NAIRALANDER, IM BUYING MORE GENERATORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Xtfield:
My first daughter is getting married next month. I was already dreaming of a bride price of about N3.5m because I have all receipts for her education plus professional examinations and got an accountant to work out the interest (she is actually an accountant herself). But the young man was lucky because when I went to my Dad in the village to ask what the family takes he gave me a list and behold I saw Bride price is fixed at N35000. So I guess I will have to grudgingly allow these lucky guy to pay just N35000. Or do you think I should appeal against these 'outdated list'? After all what can I buy wit 35k? And I was thinking of changing my car!!!

OBOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OGIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Chei!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is why Muslim young men get married in time, cos their dowry can be as less as 10000 naira, but for us Christians im not even thinking of getting married because of the price of dowry, nowadays girls are use for business in most families, the family don't think of the implication, some of them after marriage they would come to you for help, but for me i won't, that is why so many girls are still out there unmarried!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Jamiu Sikiru, a middle-aged resident of Ijebu-Ode chops off his penis in a bid to commit suicide, reports the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)

A middle-aged man, Mr Jamiu Sikiru, who attempted to commit suicide by cutting off his penis with a razor blade at Ijebu-Ode in Ogun, has regained consciousness.

Sikiru, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on his sick bed at the Ogun State Hospital, Ijebu-Ode yesterday, said frustration made him to carry out the act, explaining that he made several attempts to kill himself, "due to frustration and depression’’.

Sikiru had, on June 3, at the popular Oyingbo Street in the commercial area of the town, cut off his penis with a razor blade in broad daylight. He was later rushed to hospital in a pool of his own blood by sympathisers.

He said: "On my way from Lagos sometime ago, I picked a car borris from the road side in order to use it to poison myself due to frustration, but a friend, who later saw the object, told me that it was not borris that I was holding but rather a bullet.

"It was then I decided to do away with it because I was afraid that I could be arrested if the police found out that I was keeping a bullet.

"On a Friday after the incident, while I was returning from where I went to dispose of the bullet, I saw a police vehicle coming in my direction.

"And I thought it was me they were coming to arrest because of the bullet I went to dispose of. Immediately I saw the police, I decided to commit suicide by cutting my male organ with blade because I don’t want to be arrested.

"That was the last thing I remembered before I woke up in the hospital. What I need now is prayers for forgiveness for attempting to kill myself."

Asked about his family, Sikiru said he lost his parents a few years back.

The Chief Medical Director (CMD) of the hospital, Dr Wellington Ogunsanya, said Sikiru would be referred to a psychiatric hospital when he fully regained his strength.

Ogunsanya explained that Sikiru was responding to treatment and that there was a symptom of depression in him.

Ogunsanya said: "I will say he is stable physically but mentally I don’t think he is stable yet. There is symptom of depression in him.

"We are hoping that by the time his wound is healed, we will discharge him to his family and advise him to seek psychiatric evaluation.

"Although we are managing him for his depression by giving him anti-depressant, but he still needs expert evaluation.

The CMD,said that none of Sikiru’s relations had come to visit him.

According to Ogunsanya, hospital workers are assisting Sikiru with money to buy drugs and food.

http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/news/8749-cbn-to-guarantee-rescued-banks-100.html

Bank depositors scared of losing their cash were yesterday told to set their minds at rest.
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) will provide 100 per cent guarantee for depositors and creditors of any of the rescued banks that fail to meet its September recapitalisation deadline.

CBN’s director of Banking Supervision Sam Oni told reporters after the Bankers’ Committee meeting in Abuja that it would pursue recapitalisation to its logical conclusion.
He however, warned that if the lingering court cases stalling the recapitalisation of the eight rescued banks are not brought to an end on time, the CBN might be compelled to withdraw the guarantee those banks enjoy.

The eight rescued banks – Afribank, Oceanic Bank, Intercontinental Bank, BankPHB, Finbank, Spring Bank and Union Bank – that benefited from the N620billion bail-out in 2009 were last week given four months to fully recapitalise or be liquidated.

This followed the collapse of merger talks between the managements of these banks and potential investors, as well as the delay in their recapitalisation efforts.

Oni advised shareholders with negative asset value to begin to think of other better ways to amicably resolve the matter.

He noted that the warning had become imperative “because they (shareholders) don’t own the banks, the banks are gone, those banks are surviving today because the CBN is keeping them afloat through the CBN guarantee. That is why they have been able to approach other banks to source for money”.

He said should the CBN “pull out the guarantee today, those shareholders who think that they own the bank will realise that they do not own any bank anywhere”.

The rescued banks he said, need about N1.5 trillion to fill the hole created by their eroded capital, besides the required capital adequacy ratio.

Managing Director of Zenith Bank, Godwin Emefiele, said the meeting also dwelt on how to reduce the volume of cash transaction in the system.

To achieve that, banks he said, will be deploying Automated Teller Machines (ATMs), Point of Service (PoS) terminals in various locations as well as on-site and off-site locations for the banks.

He said banks will aggressively procure PoS terminals that customers will use anytime they visit Points of Sale either at shopping malls, airports, factory halls or even where there are key distributors of various companies who normally carry out transactions with the aid of cash.

He said the pilot scheme of the controversial cashless banking, which seeks to peg the daily cumulative withdrawals and lodgments at N150, 000 and N1 million for individuals and companies, will take off in Lagos where about 40,000 ATMs will be deployed per 100,000 persons in different parts of the state by December.

Managing Director of Stanbic IBTC, Mrs. Shola David-Borha said the Bankers’ Committe discussed ways by which the capital market can be deepened in such a way that banks can provide support for infrastructure development particularly through infrastructure bonds.

Specifically, she said: “We looked at the payment support package for the power sector for which the World Bank has issued a partial risk guarantee to cover the default of distribution companies.

Managing Director of Diamond bank Alex Oti said 1,000 crop farmers in Nigeria have had their names and addresses circulated to all the banks in Nigeria preparatory to having the banks support them to ensure that food production is increased.

He said banks’ commitment to funding agriculture is currently 2 per cent of their total loan portolio but the CBN intends to raise it to 5 per cent before the end of the year.

Hope this will help violent and seun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
