Two days ago, a young man who goes by the name Aminu G Idris claimed that a Chinese Supermarket in Abuja denied Nigerians entry. Today Mohammad Jamu took it upon himself to investigate the case. Here is what he has to say with photos:


"Today I became a journalist!! how I saw the news trending about a certain Chinese Shop at Gwarinpa that refuses Nigerians access posted by Aminu G Idris and copied by Aishat Aishat Alubankudi immediately an investigative spirit took over me,
as I approach Gwarinpa I was filled with excitement of seeing a shop in Nigeria that denies Nigerians entry, at the gate I saw a writing that clearly took me aback and instantly quenched my anger, it was an advice to costumers from the shop owners after being attacked by armed robbers a couple of days ago and they were merely taking precautions so they advise only an individual at a time not group of persons out of fear and tremor of what they experienced in the past, poor them being foreigners in another mans land. They were friendly on entering the shop and to my surprise other Nigerians were trickling to see for themselves too. My advise to those celebrating the story please verify contents before posting to the social media your action alone can destroy someone's Business in Islam we call it (Shaidar Zuhr ) Bearing false witness and Allah has prescribed severe punishment for those who thrive in it"

/
The notice is suspicious.

It sounds reactionary.

I believe Aminu G.

kowema:
Is that the only supermarket in Abuja... It's not by force to patronize their business so keep moving.

People are just mentally bound.
If someone doesn't want to sell their goods for whatever reason to you then move on and stop quoting me..

This is the most ridiculous and abominable statement that I have ever heard this year. Apparently there is no lowest level in stupi.dity as you have clearly and ignorantly demonstrated by your careless statement.

Unbelievable!

During marriage rites and wedding, you enjoyed alone.

Now that trouble starts, you will not suffer alone.

Take a decision. I don't know what you expect strangers to do for you. Tell you to stay? Tell you to leave?

Apparently, you don't even know what you want and that's how you ended up in this predicament

Holywizard:
I am so sorry to say this but it is actually the truth.
Ever since I graduated last year my mum has made my life a living hell.
I ve tried severally to get used to her bad attitude but all to no avail.
She complains on every thing I do. In fact once she wakes up from sleep she must look for something to complain with.

Since I graduated, I automatically stopped receiving cash from them & they (she & my dad) doesn't even care whether I have money to recharge my phone. Since last year they haven't given me ordinary #1000 & once I complain they will say 'no money' but my mum especially keeps buying unnecessary things. No money but she'll buy new shoes, clothes, bags, cell phone etc which she won't even put on.

Last week, our last born of de family came back from school & she took him out for shopping & she spent not less than #50,000 on him. Everything she does now is on the boy. My mum can even wash the plates on behalf of him. Everything he does is right. She protects the boy like an egg.

When an old friend wanted me to come over to PH so that I'd be managing his business before I go for service, my mum refused, saying that the days are bad via money ritualism. All my elder siblings called me to talk sense into me that I should just stay back, I missed that big opportunity because I'd ve been having like hundreds of thousands in my bank account.

My parents doesn't care about my welfare. Right now I don't have up to #1000 in cash & in bank. I think they hate me & I
I hate my mum the most!!! I just feel like leaving the house for them.

/
What are you still doing at home after graduation?
They spent money to train you in school. It is time for you to go out there and become a man.
You need to move out to create room for your younger ones to be trained as well. You can even assist in training your siblings. At what point are you going to grow up? You are just an ingrate.

AceRoyal:
Kachikwu was and is right!
Build it first to appease the Niger Delta and then go after those who the government feels have defrauded them.
Only people devoid of proper reasoning will disagree.

Amaechi wants to remove his nose to spite his face.
He is devoid of proper reasoning on this matter.
Seems Kachikwu isn't a full zombie after all.

/
Build first.

Retrieve the money later.

Build with what? Air?

Government is running low on cash. Where will they get the money to continue building? Apparently there is no real valuation for the contracts. I guess folks want the FG to keep throwing money into the bottomless pit.

Why are they trying so hard to launder this Oba's image?

The other time, they photoshopped a picture of the couple to look as if they had a billboard in New York. Now, where 2 or 3 are gathered together, they attach the name of an organization to bestow prestige on him. His people back home cherish him. But all these attempts to elevate him to where he doesn't belong is an exercise in futility.

He should quit trying too hard.

A lot of people have dirty hands in Nigeria that they dipped where it didn't belong.
Assassination like this does not just fall out of the sky.

My prescription:

Rent/buy a lot of porn movies, watch how the actors handle business. Then when you get a new girlfriend, use the knowledge acquired. Thereafter no lady will say that another man is a better man than you.
It is not always about finance. I think you are lacking in "bedmatics"

Abiola won the election.

Could he have delivered Nigeria? No! He belonged to the cabal. The devils he dined with took his life.

If OBJ had died, folks would have said that he would have been the messiah that Nigeria needed. The same goes for YarAdua and GEJ. They all failed in all the indices used to. forecast their alliance with the citizens of Nigeria. Buhari? Don't get me started. It is the same ol' same old.

kingkakaone:
for all the evil america has done to nations just because of their oil they think they will have peace?

They always preach peace and yet buy weapons for militants so that they will come and steal the oil in the nation. Libya, Iraq, Syria, etc are all living proofs.

If I think of Libya, I weep for the wickedness of man to man. a once beautiful land has now become a place of pains and shame.

Every thing done has a reward. when their time for receiving their reward comes they will be surprised that internal conflict will help outsiders just as they've done to other nation

/
Why all the hate on America? What exactly has USA done to deserve all the hate?
Every human being has a brain. Americans have problems, they look for solution.
Most other shitty countries are only good for one thing--begging for alms or things they can easily acquire if they apply themselves well.
A country like Nigeria next to the ocean lacks water. A nation with oil experiences fuel scarcity? A nation filled with fertile land importing food?
A nation located in the hottest region of the world could not harness the solar energy for generation of electricity.

And the little she has, her people steal and deposit in foreign banks; turn around to borrow the same money at exorbitant rates.
When all the factors point to a group of people who have crab mentality, what is the easiest way out?
Blame USA.

GurlFriend:
Someone, in a broadcast message Whatsapp message currently making the rounds says the trending dance move 'dab' is demonic.

The message also goes further to spell out the full meaning of DAB.

When I read it, I just shook my head

Read the full message after the below. Get ready to be 'overgasted' and 'flabberwhelmed'.

Dab has a root in weed smoking.
Only weed smokers will understand the need for it.
One savage turned it into a dance move and the craze was ignited.

CProf:
Good day nairalanders,
I need your advice and help on what to do because I am totally confused.
I am 23, holds a Bsc from a Nigerian university.
I recently got into a masters program in the US with full tuition waiver and a generous monthly stipend that would cater for my living expenses. I already have my particulars to apply for my F1 student visa but I'm scared because of the uncertainty that lies ahead; also the exchange rate is not helping matters
I am sure I would get the visa but as I'm talking, I only have 100k left on me because I spent a lot during the application processes.
I can huzzle and get my flight fee because I still have 2 months to resumption.
Now, my headache is that I would still need up to $2000(roughly #700,000) to survive for the first month, pay health insurance and other small fees before I start receiving my monthly stipend of $1500.
School resumes August 14, what should I do?
Tried taking up loan from the bank but didn't work out.
I am confused at the moment.
Should I go ahead and get the flight fee, get to US with almost no amount except God provides an helper?
Or should I just forget about my America dream
I have exhausted all my options, God help me.
Please advice a brother.

N.B
My parents are old pensioners that only God knows when the government would answer them.



I am at a crucial point in my life.
Thanks

/
How are you going to spend $2000 in your first month.
You need:
1. Bus pass to get around ($70/month)
2. Food is cheap and readily available
3. 99 cents stores are there for your daily needs.
4. No health insurance. If you get sick, walk to the ER of any community hospital or any hospital....they must treat you.

So what will be taking your $2k the first month?
Do you have accommodation?

Humans are dumb.

Every material in use goes through tears and wears and may need replacement or servicing--same as human body.

Healing miracles exist. There is no more concrete evidence of it than seeing men of God go for medical check ups.

Pope, Bishops, evangelists, pastors all go for routine medical check up and surgeries.

But some of them want their followers to donate money, go home and pray.

PHOTONEWS: Military Raid On Civilian Home In Oporoza, Delta State

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10153558568462703&id=96184337702&refid=17&_ft_=top_level_post_id.10153558568462703%3Atl_objid.10153558568462703%3Athid.96184337702%3A306061129499414%3A2%3A0%3A1467356399%3A-8237463700391897848#footer_action_list

Why can't you state the facts?

Nigeria military raided Tompolo's house.

What is incomprehensible about that?

MrDavidson:
A crime was committed in Kaduna, but the killers were intelligently traced to Ebonyi, but that fake NDA would be ranting that Nigerian Army is poor in intelligence gathering. The way Nigerian security agencies arrest people in state A after they committed the crime in state Q always leaves me with awe and deep respect for them. They're not in any way dull or backwards as those militants are trying to brainwash their supporters to believe. I sincerely believe that NA is a great army - any day any time.

/
Come on.

That's very easy. Grab a couple of suspects. If they are unable to sort, tell them their crimes and beat the confession out of them. Call the media. Bingo! Crime solved.

Next episode...
\

LOL.

Why eat anyhow in Nigeria? The hospital bills when you get back to base and get sick is too much even for an ordinary malaria. God forbid if your insurance denies coverage. It is not as if you can run to the nearest Pharmacy to get medications like they do in Nigeria. One night in ICU will set you back at least $10,000. By the way, African restaurants are always booming in diaspora. Who are the ones patronizing them? Nigerians in Nigeria?

Peers are subject to envy. Exchange pleasantries but mind your business. Just like the OP, they looking for every excuse to criticize your actions to support the harboured envy. They do poison the ones around them. What makes you think you are safe?

One can only grow by aligning with people that are better than him/her. You can choose to hang around your peers and be the king of the hood but you end up limiting yourself.

Truth be told. You are exposed. Some things Nigerians take as normal (bribery, no electricity,etc) may be very irritating. Voice your concerns and you will be termed "forming".

It is always best to err on the side of caution.
\

Rest in Peace.

They promoted the hell out of this guy.

But he disappointed them very well.

Dude had no stamina.

multikolour:
No, humble and meekness type of leadership

/
It takes a lot of intelligence to differentiate between humility and low self-esteem.

When your underlings can push you around and act under you with impunity, that's not humility at work. That's a zombie at helms of affairs. But with the vast majority of unemployable educated illiterates that litter the Nigeria space, I don't expect them to understand the difference.

When you apply for a management position in any corporation, tell them that you are bringing meek and humility to the table. You will remain unemployed forever. Corporations want and expect good results. Nigeria is like a corporation. CEOs get fired for bad results. Meek and humility are not in the scorecard.

With a good PR firm as image launderer, folks will honour dinner invitations as long as there are no obligations attached. It is called business interests.

STANDING OVATION.

Some people have tattooed themselves out of the job pool.

A very big lesson in life.

This is Nigeria. Those with tattoos should go and apply in US,UK, Netherland police forces. Successful candidates will be working for Nigerians. And how majority of Nigerians perceive tattoos trumps any feelings the victims may have. No be their papa private business.

When the job market gets tight, the weed out process becomes more stringent.

Think about it.

If an authorized fighter jet enters the Nigerian airspace, what will happen?

Yeah. Everyone is a sitting duck in Nigeria.

Nigerians do not think outside the confines of their stomach.

\

There are many people who will want Dokpesi dead:

Political associates (failure to share largesse from 2015 election)

Business associates (inability to fulfill financial obligations)

Ex-employees (those he frustrated with months of salaries in arrears and subsequently fired)

The economy is bad. A lot of people are frustrated.

Why budget billion(s) of naira for the Aso Rock clinic that cannot treat even a freaking ear infection.

I have the suspicion that every Nigeria President always found excuses to run away from Nigeria.

PMB, The good people of Nigeria acknowledged your great effort so far in moving the country forward. We can see some evil elements trying to frustrate the good work. Let them continue with their bombing, I am double sure you won't dance to their tune, Nnamdi Kanu will remain in maximum INBOX and I hope the good people of South-South will wake up soon before it's too late. Someone is trying to use your land as a battle field, I pity the innocent people of the region.

In PMB voice : No terrorist group will hold us on ransom again. Let the Avengers terrorists continuing with the Oil pipe bombing. More dynamites to their launcher.

God Bless Federal Republic Du Nigeria.

I support Buhari because I want the best for Nigerians.

But Buhari is the one sabotaging himself.

Instead of fighting corruption (investigate, arrest, prosecute), his anti-corruption team is arresting and extorting. That is not a sign of seriousness. With all the overwhelming evidence, no prosecution and jail times given except unnecessary noise in the media.

I have said it numerous times that Buhari is nothing without Idiagbon.

santity100:
It is very painful that most states are unable to pay salaries for some months and even the oil rich states with huge allocations are in this category.

Despite all this Lagos State Government has continued to pay salary to its public servants on the 23rd or 22nd on every month and recently leave allowance was paid to public servant.

Kudos to Lagos State Government !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kudos to Governor Ambode !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard that Osun pays on the 18th...

Every 6 months.

Automaton09:
1. Verify the customer complain, simulate the scenarios that would cause the complain real time. Don't start by disassembling or testing until the fault have being narrowed down to systems, sub-systems or components.
2. Analyze the affected component schematic diagram after narrowing down the complain to a system, sub-system or component, look up the schematic diagram and electrical circuit of the components, confirm how it was designed to function and confirm the circuit integrity. Based on the symptoms and your understanding of its functional design, identify the possible cause.
3. Isolate the affected component, test there circuits and confirming functional parameters by design.
4. Fix the affected components applying manufactures repair pattern.
5. Ensure the affected components circuits works, by testing all the repaired components as specified by the manufacturer. If these steps are meticulously followed during diagnosis, your fix is sure.
IF IT IS NOT BROKEN... DO NOT FIX!!!
Emission basically means emitting substance. Reactions that take place during combustion and their resultant by products.
IDEAL: Combustion FUEL (hydrocarbons)+AIR (oxygen and nitrogen) CARBON DIOXIDE+water+unaffected nitrogen
REAL: Engine Combustion FUEL + AIR
UNBURNED HYDROCARBONS + NITROGEN OXIDES+CARBON MONOXIDE+CARBON DIOXIDE+water.
Exhaust gases
Hydrocarbon emissions(HC) result when fuel molecules in the engine do not burn or burn only partially. They react in the presence of nitrogen oxides and sunlight to form ground-level ozone, a major component of smog. Ozone irritates the eyes, damages the lungs, and aggravates respiratory problems. It is our most widespread and intractable urban air pollution problem. A number of exhaust hydrocarbons are also toxic, with the potential to cause cancer.
NITROGEN OXIDES (NOx) Under the high pressure and temperature conditions in an engine, nitrogen and oxygen atoms in the air react to form various nitrogen oxides, collectively known as NOx. Nitrogen oxides, like hydrocarbons, are precursors to the formation of ozone. They also contribute to the formation of acid rain.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a product of incomplete combustion and occurs when carbon in the fuel is partially oxidized rather than fully oxidized to carbon dioxide (CO). Carbon monoxide reduces the flow of oxygen in the bloodstream and is particularly dangerous to persons with heart disease.
Carbon dioxide does not directly impair human health, but it is a “greenhouse gas” that traps the earth’s heat and contributes to the potential for global warming. These are the reasons why they are termed as not being Environment friendly and needs to be controlled.
In automobiles because the substances emitted are not Environment friendly, systems are designed by the manufacturer to monitor and control them. This is made possible by the use of SENSORS and ACTUATORS. Since components in automobiles are designed to function with certain parameters and have thresholds which are environment friendly, it is very easy to monitor the functionality of these components via a reference table(ECP/PCM or Brain box as we call it locally). We will be looking at the components that make up the emission control system, there generic functional parameters, there principle of operations, there defects, how they affect the emission system and how the aid in controlling emission.
The Systems, Sub-systems and Components are: Catalyst, Oxygen sensors, Mass airflow meter sensor, Manifold absolute pressure sensor, Air intake temperature sensor, Idle air control valve, Positive crankcase ventilation, Throttle position sensor, Evap system, EGR system just to mentions few. Though we will discuss all and relate them.
KNOWLEDGE IS THE KEY TO EFFECTIVE CREATIVITY AND TRANSFORMATION.... Let's keep learning.

You can all keep ranting while the world appreciates GEJ. The traditional ruler only said gej "made a mistake", some zombies here decided to remix it as gej being the mistake.

Buhari wants to score cheap political point by cleaning up ogoni. He should go ahead, after all, that's the president's duty. But he won't deceive those who know him for who he really is.

You are more interested in how people who live thousands of miles away feel about Jonathan than how he impacted your life. LOL.

The word Hero has been abused. But then coming from Nigeria, the land where good means bad, I can understand.

If Jonathan is the best President that Nigeria ever had, look around you and you will see why Nigeria is and will remain a sh!thole.
