Any Tecno or Infinix phone that costs more than $100 (okay, maximum $200) or its naira equivalent is over-priced.

Watch the fans come after me when deep down, they know it is true. How can you buy a phone with no second hand value for 128k? You can't sell it in a year's time for half that price that's if anyone will buy it from you for any price at all.

I think $60 is a fair price.

Below are the 6 signs your car needs an engine repair

1)The check engine light turns on
Dashboard warning lights are your car’s way of alerting you about problems it detects via its On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) system.
While the check engine light can be triggered by many different issues, many of them are directly related to engine performance,and ignoring the light will only lead to greater problems.

2)Your car is making strange noises
A knocking noise coming from your bonnet is a sign of a dying engine. This noise could be caused by wear or damage to your engine’s mechanical parts such as pistons, bearings or other moving parts. Other noises you should look out for include popping, spitting and backfiring from your exhaust.

3)You experience a loss of engine power
Your car engines will struggle to run at their usual level if there is an internal problem.The vehicle may stall, shake at high speeds or struggle when climbing a bridge.

4)Excessive Smoke from your exhaust
There are several reasons why your exhaust could be producing smoke.The colour of the smoke can give you an idea of what is causing the problem.

If the smoke is black, it means that your engine has incomplete combustion which leads to burning too much fuel. This could be due to damaged fuel injectors,malfunctioning sensors,damaged air filter and clogged fuel return line

Grey smoke may come from a stucked pcv valve,problems with your transmission fluid and excessive oil consumption.

Dark blue smoke means that oil is leaking into your engine’s combustion chamber. This can be caused by worn out piston rings,damaged valve seals and other worn or damaged engine components.

5)The engine is running roughly
A struggling engine will often shake or lose power as the revs increase. A few common solutions for this may be to replace the spark plugs,replace your ignition coils,check your fuel pressure,clean your air flow meter or give your engine a tune-up.

6)Your car produces oil patches
If you notice puddles of oil under your vehicle, this is probably a result of a leak in your engine. As the oil depletes, more friction will occur in your engine, generating excess heat. Oil leaks are common from engine oil seals, and sump plugs/sump plug washers.

So you will run to repair your engine because Check Engine light is on which could also be caused by loose fuel cap or faulty oxygen sensor? Some unscrupulous mechanic will take you shine and may even cause more damage.

There is a major problem if "Check Engine" sign is flashing.

Billyonaire:
This timid generation of humans do not recognize tattoo as a creative body art that it is. They just harbour stupid biased convinction that tattoo must be bad without asking themselves if Body art is what commits crime.

Why do they have throw in in football when the ball crosses the line? It is the rule of the game but Americans think football aka soccer is stupid. You learn x and y in Maths class even though they are never used in real life. Why? It is all about weeding out process. Like they say, life is not fair. Tattoo is a body art. Well... many employers beg to differ. The question is: Why would a prospective employee limit himself by not adhering to the rules of the game? It is not about right or wrong. Just like in football, if you don't understand the rules of the game, you lose. A beggar has limited choices.

It cannot get any more real than this lad. Reality just kicked him in the nuts.

Please I just wanna know.
This issue has been bugging me for some time now.
If there are any medical students here, please your opinion is highly needed.

I've been hearing that medicine is very tough and all that, but being an average student, can I still scale through?
Will it be as easy as it is with top students?
Don't get me wrong, I didn't choose medicine because I wanted to. It's been my dream right from JSS2..
But being at home for 2 years, due to delay in getting admitted, without going to school, little or less study has really depleted what I had back then in secondary school.
I just need advice.
Please there should be no insults.

Thanks.

Can an average student be admitted to study Medicine?
There is a reason why you are still at home.
It is called reality check.
Some people had dreams of being governors when they were in JS1. Then life happened...

I am waiting for their 2018 predictions.

It is currently the most significant way these scammers make fool of themselves.

How vivid can their shenanigans get?

\

Nigerians are limited by the bad economic policies of the successive mediocre leaders they elect. Instead of challenging their leaders, they find comfort in disturbing God or in some cases blaming invisible enemies and uncles in the village.
Armed robbers, kidnappers, looters, politicians and fraudsters pay tithes to these scammers called pastors as well. To them, the end justifies the means. As long as the private jets are fueled and another Rolls Royce is ordered, all is fair in tithing.
Greed is a vice. When MMM was milking them, they defended their gullibility with "after all, it is our money" until the inevitable happened. Now it is "I tithe". Oh well, more power to the pastors.
I feel sorry for the ones who attribute their success in life to tithes. There goes someone who has serious doubt in his ability. What again is the meaning of low self-esteem? Until non-tithers remain poor and tithers are millionaires, such success and tithing are mere coincidence.

Is she HIV+?

Her husband has balls mehn. Proposing to an olosho?

Well, i prefer a changed hoe who is sexually active to all these born again girls who are boring on bed.

Don't judge this lady until you hear the history of the so-called husband. I won't be surprised if he had spent a greater part of his life in prison. It is not uncommonly outrageous.

You know there is a problem when Christians are no longer preaching about faith, love and salvation. It is all about sowing proverbial seed to gain worldly possessions. Of course there is always a verse in the Bible to justify anything. Are you a man that lust after women? Then read the Songs of Solomon. Yes! In the same Bible.

That young man does not deserve a response; in fact, I’m not talking because of him but because my Papa, Pastor Adeboye had spoken, I’m speaking on the issue. Now, if it requires that we go into a debate, let’s have it. Yes, your tithe is not a license to make heaven but it is an acknowledgment of God’s mercy in your life. But because Papa Adeboye corrected the wrong notion and the young man dared to respond to him, I felt it was insulting. This is not about sentiment or emotion, it is about commonsense. You don’t respond to an elder in certain manner, especially a man of Pastor Adeboye’s standing.


There are things people shouldn’t just dabble into especially when it is not their field. Even if you mobilize the whole world against tithing, you will only end up being counterproductive because this is not your field. Men of God do not need to react to such issues because like I said earlier, once somebody has made up his mind on a position, nobody should argue with such a man. My reaction to such a man is, if that is your position, keep it, continue with what you believe but don’t confuse people to believe what you believe.”

There is nothing special about Adeboye. He will be food for termites just like everyone else. Heaven is very beautiful yet when
Adeboye and co fall sick, they run to the hospital because they are scared of going to beautiful heaven.
But they will mourn and grumble when denied common American visa. The same folks that distribute oil to cure their flock? SMH.

One tribe of Israel (Levites) was dedicated to priesthood and serving God. God mandated the other tribes to pay tithe to support them
since they have no holdings in land, farm or livestock. No Gentiles were asked to pay tithe under any circumstances. How Adeboye and co-scammers became Levites beats me!

All they are saying is: Stop scamming poor and gullible folks.

The family will face undue hardship and neglect.

Is it worth it?

Remember the Yoruba general that refused to fight? A very smart man. A living dog is better than a dead tiger
considering that the country he may die for does not give a hoot about his family's welfare.

That'll be suicidal.

They are already suicidal facing armed military with only flags.

How low can it get?

The military personnel know that anyone of them that die fighting for Nigeria, his corpse and his family will be treated worse at death:

Give the rest of nigeria and the military an excuse...

When you kill people and they defy all odds and keep coming back, that is a clear indication that it ain't going to get better. After all the killings, these fellas are back on the street waiving their flags again.

Aren't you surprised that Boko Haram is still in existence?

How could you waste four years of your life studying Political Science in Nigeria? Where would you get the experience to put on your CV?
With a pump action, knife, and zeal to die for a godfather, you could have gathered all the experience in one election.

Sorry...you hustled down the wrong alley.

The hardest thing to kill is an ideology.

Americans tried it with muslims and it didn't get them anywhere.

The worst fear is if and when these able-bodied men organize and start bearing arms.

A bird at hand is worth more than ten in the bush.
Nigerians are more interested in building new things than maintaining already existing structures.

Part of the fund being dumped in Lekki Trade zone could have been used in rehabilitating many parts of Lagos that seem only habitable for animals.

Nigeria Giant of Africa....hmmmmmmm

Giant of Africa is "oke afa na-egbu nwa nkita"

Nigeria is a "I get am before no be property"

Technology bridged the gap fast. Once obscure countries are now more habitable than Nigeria because at least you are guaranteed
24hrs power with good road network. What could beat that? No infrastructures, no development.

Ethiopia, the only African country that was never colonized---that is the real giant. Not Nigeria that Britain uses as toilet tissue. Heck! the President gets permission from them before any task in this 2017. Any little upheaval, FGN sends delegates to UK to explain. Go figure!

A society begets the kind of leadership she deserves.

In all these wailings, not a single soul asked the most important question of all: How do you bring down a big statue?

An actionable answer to the question may cure Okorocha's madness. They keep giving him unnecessary credit not minding that his brain probably has been scattered by all the spiritual slaps he allegedly got this year.

BecomeALandLord:
Hello everyone, I want to share something with us today.

This is an occurrence I've noticed severally in my career path as a real estate consultant and it's like a bug that won't go away.
It has eaten too deep into the hearts of people, it's really so pathetic.

Now straight to the point.
I've noticed severally and on many occasions the fradulent attitude of Nigerians towards their relatives based overseers.
This needs to stop!

We all know that this money isn't easy to get.
Pity the way your relative abroad has to hustle under harsh conditions to make money and send it back home for projects such as to buy a land or a house in their names so that when they return, they can have a place to call their own and have peace of mind.

Then they transfer the money to their relatives here in Nigeria for this projects and instead of their relatives to help them make this investments here, on most occasions they use the money for their personal gain.

It's really not fair!

This attitude must stop.

I have a client based oversees, he was really interested in buying a landed property from my firm.
His brother is based in Lagos so he sent his brother for inspection and I took his brother to the site.
After seeing the site, they sent him pictures of the place.
He loved the place and sent them money to help close the deal.
You won't believe that instead of paying outrightly for the property his relatives only paid 5% worth of the property to our company account and shared the remaining 95% among themselves.

My client was more than disappointed. I put myself in his shoes and it wasn't funny.

He had to transfer the remaining 95% balance directly to my company account from his base oversees.
Then he told his folks to come to my office to pick up his documents and send it to him through DHL.

Now, whenever he wants to acquire a property, he doesn't pay money through his relatives anymore.
He pays directly to company account and then ask his folks to come and pick up the documents.


This kind of relatives is exactly what hinders most Nigerians based overseas from investing at home.
Not all relatives behaves like this though, but the ones that act like this should stop it with immediate effect.

Let's be our brothers keepers .....what goes around surely comes around.

Not a problem.

That's why they invented Glock 19.

nNEOo:
I think these questions are indeed valid .....the pastor should , well , CLEAR the air without emotions or sentiments , just Bible reference .




I no 1 hear say we no the use old testament again oh


Thank you lord Jesus I will never be chained in false doctrine, #freedminds

Adeboye is not interested in clearing the air. His interest is not in the bible. He is more interested in the pecuniary gain from milking hapless and helpless ignoramuses.

It is all about the money!

INTEGRITYA1:
Hello Nairalanders, it obvious that apart from those in Academics and some professionals like Doctors, Engineers and some few others.
Most likely, there is no significant relationship between ones course of sturdy study and ones career path after graduation, to the extent that most people hardly revisit their core course while on campus and consequently they might not even remember to define their course of sturdy study.

Let see if at all, we are still in tune with our respective courses.

Your course of sturdy study then define it.

Obviously you can't.

When you mistake sturdy for study, something is inherently wrong.

Sad!!! British charity worker killed in Nigeria after being kidnapped, 3 others freed

A British hostage kidnapped last month in southern Nigeria has been killed and three others freed.

Ian Squire was one of four Britons taken by suspected militants on 13 October from the oil-rich Delta area.

The British High Commission and Nigerian
authorities negotiated the release of Alanna Carson, David Donovan and Shirley Donovan.

The British Foreign Office (FCO) said it had been a "traumatic time" for those involved. An FCO spokesperson said that Nigerian authorities were investigating the kidnapping, adding: "Our staff will continue to do all we can to support the families."

Why would any sane being leave the comfort of his country to go and try to save Nigerians that don't want to be saved?

It beats me. Only auto-reset can salvage Nigeria.
