Business / Irregular Charges By Gtb by influenz: 5:24am On Nov 29, 2018 |
Good morning, Please is any person observing this new trend with GTB? The approved charges for inter bank transfers by the CBN is N52. But I observed that GTB charges this twice. The first charge with be incorporated into the transfer amount, and then another charges will be debited on the account for the same value earlier added to the transaction amount. This is robbery. |

Career / 24 Inventions You Probably Did Not Know Were Made By Blacks by influenz: 2:55pm On Sep 10, 2018 |
We now live in a world where most blacks have been brainwashed and have forgotten their history. We published this article to remind blacks of whom they were and to re-ignite the zeal for invention which was once the dominant urge. Today, inferiority complex is the major challenge of most black people. And it is unfortunate that this has been taken advantage of. We hope that by reminding you or informing you of the great exploits of times past, we could heal the faculty of every wrong thinking black men and women. It is flabbergasting to find out the desperation of some women. They go through unbelievable lengths to want to look like white women. You were made black for a reason and until you embrace the color of your skin, you won’t be emancipated from your self-imposed mental slavery. Apparently, there is racism in the world. But despite this reality, no right thinking black man will feel inferior to another race or be allowed to be disrespected by another race. Before race, remember it’s human and there is but just one human race. Now, we take you through 24 incredible inventions by blacks. 1. Automatic Gear Shift The automatic gear shift was invented by a black man named Richard Spikes in 1932. 2. America’s First Clock Benjamin Banneker – He was a farmer, mathematician, astronomer, land surveyor, and the subject of a Stevie Wonder song. 3. Automatic Elevator Doors Alexander Miles – We’ve all gotten the elevator door hug and we all owe this man. 4. Blood Bank Dr. Charles Drew – For his invention of a method of separating and storing plasma, allowing it to be dehydrated and banked for later use, Dr. Drew was the first black person awarded a doctorate at Columbia University. 5. Clothes Dryer George T. Sampson – Giving laundry baskets a greater sense of purpose since 1892. 6. Dust Pan dust pan invented by a black man Lloyd P. Ray invented the dust pan. 7. Electric Lamp Lewis Latimer – He also invented the carbon filament inside light bulbs. 8. Folding Chair John Purdy – With patent partner James R. Sadgwar, Purdy made taking a chair with you purdy easy. Get it? 9. Gas Heating Furnace Alice H. Parker – Forever changing the way Americans stay warm in winter. 10. Gas Mask Garret Morgan – It all started when this guy rescued trapped miners wearing a hood to protect his eyes from smoke and had tubes leading to the floor to draw clean air. 11. Golf Tee Dr. George Grant – They say he was an avid golfer, but not a great one. Hopefully his patent improved his game. 12. Home Security System by Marie Van Brittan Brown 13. Ice Cream Scooper Alfred L. Cralle – He’s the reason why we love ice cream since 1897. 14. Ironing Board Sarah Boone – The reason we no longer iron across a piece of wood balanced on two chairs. 15. Lawn Mower John Albert Burr – The lawn mower’s best makeover ever brought better traction, rotary blades, and allowed cutting closer to buildings. 16. Lawn Sprinkler Joseph A. Smith – We should honor this man for helping with Father’s Day ideas every year. 17. Mail Box Phillip Downing – Before this invention, people had to make a long trip to the Post Office to mail a letter. 18. Modern Toilet Thomas Elkins – He influenced several major patents, but it’s this one we appreciate most (not to knock the multi-purpose table or refrigerators for dead bodies). 19.Mop Thomas W. Stewart – He’s kept us off our hands and knees since 1893. 20. Portable Pencil Sharpener John Lee Love – A carpenter clever with names for his inventions, calling this one the ‘Love Sharpener. 21. Potato Chips George Crum – I personally love this man for this invention. You can guess why.. 22.Reversible Baby Stroller William Richardson – He’s also the reason wheels move separately. We feel certain there are fewer crying babies in the world because of this man. 23. Super Soaker Lonnie G. Johnson – Being a NASA engineer is impressive, but we love him for inventing the Super Soaker! 24 Traffic Light Garrett Morgan – Three cheers for the red, green and yellow. Mostly for the green! And if you didn’t know, now you know lovelies. Be proud to be black. https://temmybalogun.com/24-inventions-you-probably-did-not-know-were-made-by-blacks/ cc: lalasticlala seun mynd44 |
Crime / Newslai Mohammed Reveals How To Detect Sex Of Unborn Child Without Scan by influenz: 3:32pm On Aug 27, 2018 |
The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has revealed how expectant parents can detect the sex of their unborn child without going through ultra-sound scan. NAN reports that the minister made this revelation during the reception of the wedding of Tolulope Ajibola and Kolapo Faleye, both petroleum engineers. Tolulope is the daughter Chief Simon Ajibola, a former Senator who represented Kwara South in the National Assembly while the groom’s father is Mr. Olufemi Faleye also from Kwara. Addressing the couple and guests, the minister said,: “I am so delighted to be invited to be the chairman of this wedding ceremony because wedding ceremony is a thing of joy. “I pray that happiness will not cease from our homes. Mohammed, though a staunch Muslim, quoted from the Holy Bible to the admiration of guests. Speaking extempore, he said: “I will start my address by referring us to the Book of Isaiah chapter 4, verse 1 which says: “The time shall come when seven women shall take hold of one man and say food, shelter we shall provide, please let us bear your name to save us this disgrace. “So, I rejoice with Pelumi that God has given you, your own husband. I pray your union shall be fruitful and enduring. “To the groom, I want to refer you to the Book of Deuteronomy 24:5 which says: When a man weds, he shall not be called upon to go to war or work. He shall stay in the house with the wife for one full year. “I am going to speak with Mr. Faleye to allow you to stay for one year so that you can do your duty. “I am going to end my address by giving you a valuable advice. By the Grace of God, Pelumi will be fruitful and give birth to male and female children. “I am giving you this advice based on 38 years of experience in marriage with my wife, here, pointing to Alhaja Kudirat, sitting by his side. “Whenever, Pelumi takes in and you want to know whether the baby will be a boy or a girl, you need not go to any hospital or do any scanning. “Follow my example which had worked and never failed. “When the pregnancy is eight months old, take a brand new N1000 note, put it in the navel of Pelumi. If the baby moves, it is a girl. If it does not move, it is a boy. Don’t ask me why.” http://dailypost.ng/2018/08/27/lai-mohammed-reveals-detect-sex-unborn-child-without-scan/ |
