Crime / Re: Abia New CP Vows To Adopt Intelligence Policing, Community Partnership by HisSexcellency(m): 11:06am On Sep 19
Nigerian police needs to change this practice of sending officers/commissioners to unfamiliar territories.
What's an officer from Sokoto, Kebbi or yobe state doing as DPO or commissioner of police in Avia, Rivers or Ondo state. Likewise someone from Anambra or Oyo state servicing in Akwa ibom or Taraba State

TheBillyonaire:


You are wrong. All coloring are pigments added for differentiation. You have no idea how chemistry works.
This is absolutely correct, the OP is just doing "Over Sabi" on a topic he has zero knowledge of.

The different colors indicates the presence of additives or dyes, which serve various purposes:

* Some colors indicate the fuel is not for road use, such as:
- Red dye for aviation gasoline or racing fuel.
- Purple dye for agricultural or off-road use.

* Colors can indicate tax-free or low-tax fuel.

* Colors can signify the presence of specific additives, such as:
- Blue dye for gasoline with octane boosters.
- Yellow dye for gasoline with detergents or dispersants.
- Green dye for unleaded gasoline in some countries.

* Colors also help identify different fuel types or grades, such as:
- Regular, Mid-grade, or Premium gasoline.

* Some countries have specific color schemes for fuel types.

Color of petrol does not affect its quality or performance.

All these are quite unnecessary. Even in a family, any member can wake up one day and decide to dissociate from every other member of that family for whatever reason they so choose.
If any body says he/she is not Igbo, what's the big deal...... No one gets paid or given special benefits for being Igbo.

There are more important things to worry about in this country than ethnicity and tribalism.

Is this not still going to drive up pump price across the country as we will be competing with these countries for whatever quantity of products is refined at that facility.
Health / Bad Breath: Causes And Remedies For Halitosis by HisSexcellency(m): 4:32pm On Aug 02
Halitosis – the ultimate party crasher. You’re having a great time, laughing and chatting with friends, when suddenly you notice people taking a step back. No, it’s not your amazing dance moves; it’s your breath!

Halitosis, or bad breath, affects millions of people worldwide. But don’t worry; it’s not a life sentence to solo dining and social isolation.

In this article, we’ll explore the causes of halitosis and some effective remedies to help you tame the dragon’s breath.

Causes of Halitosis:

1. Poor Oral Hygiene: Not brushing and flossing regularly is like inviting bacteria to a rave in your mouth. They’ll party all night, leaving behind stinky presents.

2. Garlic and Onions: These tasty culprits can make your breath smell like something crawled in there and died. Delicious for food, not so much for your mouth.

3. Coffee and Cigarettes: Because nothing says “fresh breath” like a combination of caffeine and nicotine.

4. Medical Conditions: Certain conditions like diabetes, sinus infections, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can cause halitosis. Because your body loves to play cruel jokes on you.

Remedies for Halitosis:

1. Brush and Floss Like a Boss: Show those bacteria who’s boss. Brush for two minutes, twice a day, and floss like you mean it.

2. Mouthwash: The Nuclear Option: When regular mouthwash isn’t enough, bring in the big guns – antibacterial mouthwash that’ll leave your mouth feeling like a sterile lab.

3. Sugar-Free Gum: Chewing sugar-free gum stimulates saliva production, which helps wash away bacteria and food particles. Plus, it’s a great excuse to chew gum in meetings.

4. Tongue Scrapers: Because your tongue is like a furry little animal that needs regular grooming. Scrap away, friends!

5. Visit Your Dentist: Regular check-ups can help identify underlying issues and prevent halitosis. Plus, it’s a great excuse to get out of work for a few hours.

Bad Breath might be embarrassing, but it’s not the end of the world. By understanding the causes and using these effective remedies, you’ll be well on your way to fresher breath and a more confident you. Remember, a healthy smile is just a brush away!

Sports / How Nike Outsmarted Adidas At The Olympics Without Sponsorship by HisSexcellency(m): 4:21pm On Aug 02
In 2012, Adidas secured the title sponsorship of the Olympics for $150 million and thought they would overshadow Nike.

However, Nike used a brilliant strategy to outperform Adidas and dominate the Olympics.

With Adidas as the official sponsor, Nike faced strict restrictions.

They couldn’t use terms like “London Olympics,” “2012,” or even the iconic Olympic rings in their marketing campaigns.

This favored Adidas significantly and created a challenge for Nike to make an impact.

However, Nike came up with a genius approach to counter this challenge.

They identified three key loopholes and leveraged them to their advantage:

1. Alternative Londons
Nike was prohibited from referencing London, UK in their campaigns.

So it cleverly shot their commercials in various other “Londons” around the world.

These included London, Ohio; Little London, Jamaica, and London Gym.

2. Athlete Sponsorship
Despite Adidas being the official sponsor, athletes were free to choose their footwear.

Nike seized this opportunity by sponsoring 400 Olympians, providing them with a distinctive line of yellow-green shoes named “Volt.”
This color choice ensured high visibility on the tracks, indirectly associating Nike with the games.

3. Inspiring the Average Individual
While Adidas flaunted Olympians in their ads, Nike took a different route by featuring average teenagers.

Their “Find Your Greatness” campaign showcased everyday individuals pushing their limits.

This strategy emphasized that greatness is within everyone, not just elite athletes.

With these strategies, Nike out performed Adidas in several key metrics:

- It generated 16,000 tweets associating the brand with the Olympics, compared to Adidas’s 9,000.
- It gained 57,000 new social media followers, while Adidas added only 12,000.

- 37% of respondents believed Nike was the official sponsor – only 21% for Adidas.

Nike’s brilliance lies in being able to get itself in front of the audience, no matter the challenges involved.

Key Takeaways

Innovative Thinking: Nike’s ability to think outside the box enabled them to navigate restrictions and still make a significant impact.

Emotional Resonance: The “Find Your Greatness” campaign’s focus on relatable, everyday stories created a strong emotional connection with the audience.

Strategic Sponsorship: By sponsoring athletes and using distinctive gear, Nike ensured high visibility during the Games.

Nike’s campaign at the 2012 Olympics remains a powerful example of how brands can leverage creativity and strategic marketing to achieve extraordinary outcomes, even under challenging conditions.

Romance / Man Dumps Fiancee Over Inability To Afford Wig by HisSexcellency(m): 9:02pm On Jan 08
A young Nigerian man narrates the tough decision of calling off his relationship with his fiancee after she made a hurtful statement to him about his inability to buy her a wig.

A social media user identified as I am Ekene took to social media to narrate the tale of his past relationship with an ex-fiancee.
According to the young man, his fiancee had pleaded with him to buy a particular wig for her but due to financial constraints, he couldn’t afford it.

His fiancee, however, made a statement in an attempt to guilt trip him into buying the wig, he immediately severed their relationship.

His post;
A woman I was dating and engaged asked me to purchase a wig for her.
I told her I didn’t have the resources for it at the moment.

She looked me in the eye with bitterness and told me as long as I kept “maltreating” her by denying her wants, God will keep doing same to me.

I stood up from the bed at that moment, had my bath and went to work.

I spent the whole day in introspection.
I projected 10 years into the future and I didn’t see any scenario I was going to have a supportive human as a wife or be really happy if I didn’t constantly renew my subscription with her.

I had to let her go for good. It was an extremely though decision as we had gone really far with preps to spending together for a lifetime but I knew that lifetime will be hell if I eventually sealed it.

2023 taught me a-lot and I will rather stay single or a baby daddy than settle for nonsense.”

Celebrities / Mercy Eke’s Sister Defends Her Amid Age Falsification Allegations by HisSexcellency(m): 2:48pm On Jan 05
Mercy Eke’s age came under scrutiny after her claim of turning 30 conflicted with details on her international passport, revealing she is 35.

Mercy’s sister, Sweery, defended her against age falsification allegations, sharing a screenshot of Mercy’s birth certificate on Instagram.

Sweery emphasized that jealousy and lies were the only things against her sister, listing Mercy Eke’s achievements at 30, including 3 houses, 3 companies, lands, and cars.According to the birth certificate, Mercy Eke was born in September 1993.

The controversy initially arose during the All-Stars show when Mercy Eke claimed to be turning 30.

However, this claim was brought into question when a clearer picture of her international passport surfaced online, revealing that the reality star was in her late 30s, precisely 35 years old.

Surprisingly, the reality star sister, Sweery Eke took to her Instagram page to address the issue head-on

Sweery Eke shared a screenshot of Mercy Eke’s birth certificate, emphasizing that in the year 2050, people would still be talking about her sister’s success and age.

Despite Mercy Eke’s request not to address the matter, Sweery expressed that it was time to put an end to the ongoing controversy, citing the unfounded claims as mere jealousy.

She wrote;

“Even though my sister asked me not to post this, it’s high time we end all this madness. Y’all can hate from your trenches, my sister is clear. The only thing y’all have against her is the level of success. At 30 years, she owns 3 houses, 3 companies, lands, cars, and is living her best life.”

Sweery Eke went on to speak on Mercy’s accomplishments, pointing out the envy directed towards her sister due to her remarkable achievements at a relatively young age.

According to the revealed birth certificate, the reality star was born in September 1993, and she is set to celebrate her 31st birthday later this year.

“Y’all got nothing on my sister aside from lies and jealousy. It’s 2024, get busy or you will still be here running mad at my sister’s success and age come 2050,” Sweery Eke added.

She said, “We’ve had our issues, but not big issues. I have loved her, but sometimes, she pulls away, she pulls away from everybody, and you are like ‘ah, am I smelling?, What have I done, and you wonder. What is happening?

“Then we met to shoot a commercial, and before then, we haven’t seen, we haven’t spoken for years. And she was so nice to me. And then she left the set before us and said, ‘Kate I have gone, just want to say goodbye.’ But then, I respect her because despite the fact that she pulls away, I think she is like an Angelina Jolie. She just wants to be on your [her] own.”

Celebrities / “emeka Ike’s Ex-wife Lied” CIG President Felix Duke Says, Slams Actress Shan Geo by HisSexcellency(m): 2:55pm On Dec 30, 2023
“Emeka Ike’s ex-wife lied” CIG President Felix Duke says as he slams actress Shan George for supporting the actor’s ex wife

Felix Duke, the President of Creative Industry Group (CIG), has revealed that Emeka Ike knelt down in court to beg his ex-wife, Suzanne Emma, not to divorce him.

Duke disclosed this while reacting to the recent drama surrounding the Nollywood actor’s crashed marriage.

He said he was involved in efforts to settle the marital crisis from the beginning, as Emeka had been his close friend before he got married.

Duke said he fixed up an appointment with the former couple before they went to court. The former couple met him in a hotel at Ogudu in Kosofe Local Government Area, Lagos State.

Duke said Suzanne Emma acted like everything was okay, but after she left, she went back into crisis with Emeka.

He pointed out that all his efforts to settle them didn’t work because Emma refused to accept his pleas, because she had made up her mind to leave the marriage for the reasons best known to her.

According to Duke, “When Emma took Emeka to court, I was there. I went to court with Emeka.

“Emeka truly loved this woman but I believe she never loved him the way he loved her. From day one before Emeka met Emma, I have been friends with him.

“When he met Emma, he called me and told me, that it was so many years ago. He said there is this girl I met and I would want you to meet her and he brought Emma and introduced her to me. I was at their marriage when they had Micheal (first child), I was at the naming, Emeka was also at my marriage so many years ago. So we have been friends.

“I can tell you what Emeka went through. He was depressed after Emma left him, crying every day. I pet him and sometimes weep with him when he is crying.

“We kept praying together and I told him one day you will find love and he asked me: are you sure I will ever find love and I assured him he would.

“I followed Emeka to court and the judge told two of them to go outside the courtroom and talk and see if they can reconcile, but if they can’t, then they come back in, and he declared his judgment.

“When the judge told them that; myself, Emeka Ike and his wife, went out, and Emeka knelt down right in my presence to beg Emma, I even joined Emeka to beg her, but she refused.”

Duke said that whatever Emeka had said, was the truth as he witnessed everything. He said that Emeka lost his established school, properties, and had to start his life from scratch to rise again.

“Emma abandoned the school to run down because she was already out of the marriage. Emeka did not know that she was out of the marriage. Emeka still thought that he had a wife in Emma,” he said.



On Emeka’s first son Michael, Duke expressed displeasure over his involvement in the case between his father and mother.



Duke said: “He will go on social media to insult his father. Tomorrow he will go and beg his father. How is he going to erase all the nonsense he already said on social media?

“He expects his father to forgive him and take him back after all these? His mother pushed him to go and say rubbish against his father. This is to show that Emma isn’t a good woman. Who will want to do this to her son?”



Duke also called out actress, Shan George for supporting Emma. Duke said that while the crisis lasted, people like her never tried to settle the matter.



He said: “Has she visited Emeka Ike and his wife in their home at Magodo or did she ever visit their school? How did she know that Emma did not do anything wrong to Emeka?

“How can one person that doesn’t know anything about this whole saga, just wake up and begin to talk, because she wants to trend?”

Religion / Catholic Priest Calls Jesus A ‘palestinian Jew’ During CNN Interview (video) by HisSexcellency(m): 2:44pm On Dec 26, 2023
A Catholic priest who sat for an interview on CNN on Christmas day, claimed that Jesus was a persecuted Palestinian and that the story of his birth contains parallels to what’s going on in the Middle East.

Father Edward Beck, a regular contributor, joined Monday morning’s anchors to discuss the topic of how to keep faith alive this holiday season with everything going on in the world, namely, the war between Israel and Hamas, with Palestinians caught in the middle.

He claimed that the story of Christmas was actually one of a “Palestinian Jew”, noting how extraordinary it is to hear those two words put together. Father Beck went on to say Jesus was born into an occupied country, and that his mother and father (Mary/Joseph) were forced to flee into Egypt as refugees which is technically correct, as far as the Bible’s concerned.

Beck went on to say the same sort of thing is going on right now in 2023, and while he didn’t outrightly come out as explicitly pro-Palestine, that was how his remarks were perceived.

Father Beck has defended what he said in some back-and-forths online. Again, some took his words here to imply that Jesus was more so Palestinian/Arab than he was Jewish, but Beck says his words are being twisted, and his larger message of peace/unity overshadowed.

He’s also posted articles that reference the use of the word “Palestinian” historically and how it’s apparently been employed to identify Muslims, Jews and others who’ve lived in that region dating back millennia.

Crime / Nigeria Has 23,569 Male Convicts Out Of 24,013 Total Convicted Inmates – Prison by HisSexcellency(m): 8:12pm On Dec 21, 2023
A revelation by the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) has shown that 53,836 inmates in the 253 correctional centres across the country were awaiting trial as of December 18.

The spokesperson for the service, Assistant Controller of Corrections (ACC) Abubakar Umar disclosed this to journalists in Abuja on Thursday.

According to NAN, Umar said the summary of the inmates across the country by conviction and those on awaiting trial list was 77,849 within the period under review.

According to him, the total number of convicted inmates was 24,013 while the number of convicted male inmates was 23,569 and the number of convicted females was 444.

“Statistics shows that 69 per cent of the inmates in Custodial Centres are actually awaiting trial while 31 per cent are convicted inmates,” he said.

According to him, one of the challenges confronting the service was the dilapidated custodial structures which resulted in overcrowded and congested spaces within the centres.

The NCoS spokesman said the government had recently constructed 3,000 ultra-modern additional custodial facilities across the six geopolitical zones to decongest existing centres.

He said the initiative would help in decongesting the centres as well as enhance the welfare and the health of the inmates.

“That of Kano has been inaugurated and we are expecting speedy completion of the remaining facilities under construction.

“The ongoing construction of Abuja and the Port Harcourt centres had reached completion stages and they would soon be inaugurated,” he said.

Romance / My Wife Must Pay Me ₦1million Before I Grant Her Divorce – Man Tells Court by HisSexcellency(m): 10:55am On Dec 21, 2023
A businessman, Nasiru Yunusa has stated his conditions before he can grant his wife a divorce.

He told an Upper Area Court in Kubwa, FCT, that he would grant his wife, Aisha Hamisu a divorce if she pays him the sum of ₦1 million which he spent on her.

Yunusa and Hamisu got married according to Islamic law sometime in 2021 and share a 13-month-old daughter.

Earlier, Hamisu approached the court seeking dissolution of her marriage with Yunusa, on grounds of lack of care and respect.

She said that Yunusa packed her belongings from his house to her father’s house on April 19, 2022.

Yunusa however said he wanted Hamisu to return to his house but would grant her a divorce if she agrees to compensate him.

“I have spent money on a lawyer for court proceedings which has been going on and all I have spent on her is ₦1 million which I am ready to prove,” he said.

In response, the plaintiff said that she did not love Yunusa and could not live with him.

“It is not true that he has spent ₦1 million on me because I have been with my parents for the past two and a half years after he dumped my property at their doorstep,” she said.

“I had our daughter through a Cesarean section at Kubwa General Hospital and he did not pay a dime for hospital bill. I am ready to pay him back the dowry of ₦50,000 only to him.”

Politics / Rivers Crisis: You Ignored My Counsel – Eze Mocks Wike by HisSexcellency(m): 8:35am On Dec 17, 2023
Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, the erstwhile National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, has claimed the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike ignored his counsel.

According to Eze, the law of nature is at work against Wike, who is currently in a battle over who steers Rivers State with Governor Siminialayi Fubara.

Eze, in a statement on Saturday, hinted that it is the law of retributive justice working against the Governor, recalling that in 2014, Wike supported five lawmakers led by Evans Bipi to sack 27 lawmakers loyal to Amaechi, then Governor of Rivers State and elected Bipi as Speaker and today five lawmakers have sacked 27 of their colleagues loyal to him.

“When I told him that whatever you sow will come after you he ignored my counsel”, Eze said.

Eze further recalled that in 2018, when the then Governor of Zamfara State, Governor Bello Matawalle decamped from PDP to APC, Wike was threatening fire and brimstone that he should vacate his office in line with the constitution.

According to Eze, Wike used the same strategy on Dr David Umahi of Ebonyi State and his Cross Rivers State counterpart Ben Ayade when they decamped from PDP to APC.

“The constitution is clear and the law must be adhered to and going by that, the decampees have lost their seats at the state legislature, it happened in Cross Rivers State so all the noise about the ex-lawmakers in Rivers State is a noise of no value,” the party chief noted.

Eze said after losing the PDP presidential ticket, Ganduje has gone on to ensure that Wike is sent back to the classroom of practical politicking to learn the rudiments.

He has been tricked into thinking that he handed over Rivers State APC to him by wrongly dissolving the Rivers State Chapter and appointing some Wike’s loyalists as Caretaker Committee.

By doing so, Ganduje has created the opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the former Rivers Governor and his type of politics, whereas it was a mere ploy to drown him in the deep ocean of politics.

Eze commended Femi Gbajabiamila, the Chief of Staff to President Tinubu for turning “Wike into an unlearned comedian, poor cook, unskilled dancer and untalented entertainer.”

Crime / NAFDAC Busts Illegal Factories Manufacturing Fake Wines And Drugs In Aba (video) by HisSexcellency(m): 10:45am On Dec 16, 2023
The Director, South-East Zone of NAFDAC, Martins Iluyomade, disclosed this to journalists on Tuesday during a raid of the market which began on Monday.

He said the suspects in Cemetery Market occupy over 240 shops meant for traders which they turned into production centres for large-scale adulteration of beverages and drugs.

“What’s happening here at Cemetery Market, Aba is worse than Boko Haram. We saw how many shops were converted into manufacturing centres for all manner of wines, expensive drinks, and revalidation of the expiry date of products.

“We have the cooperation of the state government and so far we have discovered 240 shops used for this illegal manufacturing of fake consumables and about 10 persons have been arrested and the arrests are still ongoing”, he said and ordered the temporary shutdown of the market.

He disclosed that the agency got information about the illegal activities involving adulteration of known beverage brands in the market by a large number of persons in the market, stating that after doing some background checks, the agency discovered that “horrendous things” were happening there, and decided to carry out the operation without involving its Abia office.

He added, “Four trailers cannot carry the fake products we moved out from here. It shows the extent we have gone so bad as a country and the extent of dangers these people are creating.

“No wonder we have all manners of health issues and the funny thing is that we use our money to buy this evil. Our Director-General is not leaving any stone unturned in getting rid of fake products in our market.

“I will suggest that this market be shut down for now until we sanitise this market for a while. We have written to appropriate authorities to that effect and we think it is the right thing to do because when people are around, everywhere is rowdy.”

Reacting, the Coalition of South-East Youth Leaders frowned at the development, describing it as “man’s inhumanity to man”, advising that the matter must not be treated with kid gloves.
