Single and rich? And you can't find a decent girl for love?

I don't want to imagine what your life would have been if you are poor.

Nigerians like to show off....therein lies your problem. It doesn't hurt to move around town simply as you without displaying those things that attract leeches. Nobody sees you and know your worth without you.displaying those things that give the clue.

Blame yourself.

What Igbo elders saw while sitting down about Buhari, others couldn't see it standing up.

My prediction is coming true.

Cecilia Ibru, Oh the woman who defrauded n milked Oceanic bank dry..

So, What killed the young man?

Who knows? There are gay insinuations.

It could be one.of those Nigerian rumours.
\

The right answer is NO.

But a lot of Nigerians do and will let it happen for a lot less. The ones that will not do it will be because someone else is aware.

Wealthy folks use phones you will find unbelievable.

The simpler, the better. Most importantly, less distractions. Conversely, poor people need all the distractions in the world away from their miserable lives.

I said it before the election. And I will say it again...

BUHARI without IDIAGBON is nothing.

The only name that shook Nigerians was Idiagbon.

Buhari was a ceremonial head to protect the political interests of the North.

One of his close friends colluded with a staff of the bank on the heist.

CCTv of the ATM should unravel the mysterious criminal.

On the bolded points, the Samsung S6 fails when compared to the iPhone.

Typing: I'm constantly making typographical errors on the Sammy, but it feels smother on the iPhone.

Calls: The iPhone has an inbuilt noise cancellation that works, its very noticeable when you are in a noisy environment. This comes in handy for someone like me who is always on the move and have to stay at the Airport lobby or the Train terminal especially the noisy Euston train station, you will be stunned at the clarity of the phone call on the iPhone, i don't even dare Pick a call on my Sammy when around these places.

/
When I am in a noisy environment, I change my location or cover the other ear with my hand (that's if it is a very important call else it can wait).

I use the most basic Android that I got for $25. It works like a charm....No complaints. My biggest concern is always about cracking the screen. New phones come out every month and I am not going to continue chasing technology upgrades when what I have is satisfactory.

My advice is only for people who have better use for their money. That's all.

Based on the earlier thread supporting the iPhone, I had to create a rebuttal thread so that people will know what they are signing up for when they decide to go down the rabbit hole of the Android OS.


For the purpose of this review, there would be a lot of references to iPhone 6 and Samsung galaxy S6.

1. You prefer the more intuitive and user-friendly, albeit less feature-rich platform/user interface combination
Despite the fact that the most recent iteration of TouchWiz is now more streamlined and intuitive than ever, iOS is still ahead of it in terms of overall performance. TouchWiz UI on the Galaxy S6 still feels "heavy" from time to time, and while it lags less than it did on Samsung's previous flagship offerings, we can't say that it is a better offering than iOS. On the contrary, the latter offers a more hassle-free experience all over the board. Of course, Android and TouchWiz in particular are the epitome of a feature-rich combination between a mobile platform and UI, but this might not be a definite plus for every consumer.

2. You don't want oily fingerprint smudges at the back of your phone

The Gorilla Glass 4-covered back of the Galaxy S6 looks strikingly good and provides a good grip, but wait until you handle the device for a while. Chances are that the rear of your shiny new Samsung flagship will be covered with oily smudges and greasy fingerprint marks. Of course, there's no way that can be remotely appealing. The iPhone 6 holds virtually no smudges thanks to its aluminium rear. The latter, however, is not as grippy as its Samsung rival.

3. You want a metal phone

Despite that the Galaxy S6 and the S6 edge are pretty much on par with the iPhone 6 in terms of exterior design, there might be some users that don't feel comfortable with the Gorilla Glass back of the Samsung flagships. As a refresher, Apple also made use of glass in two of its previous iPhone offerings, the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4s.


4. You want a top-performing all-around device

Say what you want about Apple's iPhones, but you can't argue that they hardly ever exhibit major flaws or issues that turn customers off. Unlike certain Android flagships from the current and last year, which brought issues that we're quite hard to swallow, you can usually count on the iPhone's consistency and reliability. Yes, the iPhone 6 doesn't have an SpO2 sensor or a laser-assisted auto-focus, but it surely takes drool-worthy photos and has a predictable battery life.


5. You want timely OS updates

When a new major version of iOS gets released to the public, the majority of iOS users receive the update in a matter of hours - there's little waiting involved. On the other hand, no matter how much Samsung is poised to keep its flagships running the newest Android version, updating its Android flagships will take significantly longer.

6. You care about the whole experience

From the hardware to the software, Apple takes care of everything iPhone-related. Normally, this ensures that all aspects of the device are tailored to work seamlessly between one another and provide an almost-unrivaled user experience on all fronts. Optimization and the fruitful marriage between software and hardware is one of the most noteworthy aspects of an iPhone. We don't say that you will be disappointed by the Galaxy S6, but you'll probably have to wait a little longer before you can enjoy a similar overall experience on Samsung flagship.


7. iPhones get the best apps first.
Even though the iPhone has a smaller market share, developers still tend to make the best apps for iOS first. Yes, you can find most of the same popular apps on Android, but they don't always have the better features and designs. If you care about having the best apps on your phone, you're better off with iPhone.


8. No Android Phone Can Match IPhones' Fingerprint Sensor

Some Android phone makers like Samsung and HTC have tried adding fingerprint sensors to their phones, but none of them are as useful and accurate as the TouchID sensor on the iPhone. A few years ago, Apple bought a company called Authentec that makes the best fingerprint sensors for mobile devices. No one else has been able to beat TouchID since.


9. Few Android Cameras Can Compare With IPhone 6'S Camera

There are very few Android phones that have cameras as good as the one on the iPhone 6 (The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 stands out pretty well though). iPhone 6's camera takes great photos, and includes nifty features like the ability to shoot slow-motion and time lapse videos.

Plus, rumour has it the next iPhone will have a camera that rivals DSLRs.

Further review by me.
My review is based on personal experience with two flagship devices on the platforms (iPhone 6 & Samsung S6), and using each OS over the years.

Here's a list of devices I've used so far:

Samsung Galaxy S3
Samsung Galaxy S4
HTC ONE M8 - 16 Gig with 32Gb memory card
Samsung Galaxy S6 - 64 Gb
Iphone 6 - 64 Gb

6 months from now, you will be writing another long epistle on Iphone7.

My take: Buy the cheapest phone that gets the job done.

All you need is a phone to browse, make calls, send texts, take pictures. Most people don't use other features/apps on their phones. For some, it is a status symbol.
\

/
My only surprise is that there are Igbo people still living in the far North.
\

/
Fair enough....

Since Nigeria copies everything America....

Legalize homosexual marriage ;legalize individuals' right to bear arms.

Let's see how it will end.

yibobasher2:
Noise maker......I can bet with anything, none of the Anambra boy has up to 100 million dollars in his account. We are talking of US dollars and not biafran dollars.

/
I know there wil be at least one punk that will bite the bait....very predictable

/

ZUBY77:
I guess Orji Uzo Kalu is from Sokoto.
Meanwhile, Ifeanyi Uba is richer than half of those things up there.

/
This is Forbes official list compiled to the best of their ability...it is like an ijebu man telling the history of a village in Sokoto.

Dangote is on top. A real list if extended to 30 wealthiest people in Nigeria will be 80% Anambra boys.

And the build-up starts.

He cuts the teacher today. Some other day, he will end up cutting the girlfriend. The anti-domestic violence crew will roar forgetting that the lady decided to settle down with such a useless fellow.

This is why I think domestic violence is by choice. The victims usually see the signal but choose to ignore it because "he is going to change".

Advice your sisters accordingly.

The man is incompetent, I tell you! As an economist myself, I know what I am saying!

You need to go back and study Economics more.

When you grasp the concept, then study world politics and global economics.

If it is too difficult, study Greece crisis, EU, IMF and what role Goldman Sachs played in the saga.

Soludo and Salisu brought showmanship into CBN governorship. That shouldn't be the case. Don't use their celebrity-styled tenures to judge others.

I move for IMPEACHMENT.

Well, let's give him 1 more month

\

Something is wrong with the 2nd pix.

Disgusting

/
High cost of traditional and church wedding added to high unemployment rate have more to do with it.

Person never belle full, na to marry join im wahala go hungry am? Liability upon liability leads to domestic violence.
\

\
What will really suck na to chop belle full, collect egunje, and still write nonsense about the governor.

Na MoPol go use koboko settle that one.

/
As an ardent supporter of PMB, my patience is beginning to wear off slowly. I thought he has all these figured out. ...just watching with side eyes.

I equally blame GEJ. If he had not sucked so bad as a president, PMB would have been given the same treatment he got on previous attempts. PMB got votes per hatred for GEJ. Nigerians would have voted for a monkey if it had contested against GEJ. That's how horrible the Otueke dude was.

I hope PMB will not be a reincarnation of Yar'Adua.

Just hoping...

/
10 years down the line, most of them will look back and ask "what happened?".

The grass always looks greener from the other side.

They and only they know how they feel about it. No window dressing or cheerleading necessary when they go to bed at night and have to be honest to themselves.

Yes. I am talking about the ladies.
/

/
Over-indulgence like that usually clears up in the morning....Then buyer's remorse takes over.
\

MrsChima:
You are entitled to your opinion.

/
That's why it was succinctly expressed by ME.
\

MrsChima:
She is not an independent woman and independent women hustle for their own money. All females don't support feminism just like all men don't support misogny.

Get it right.

/

No man or woman is independent in the real sense of it.

Success and independence are being mistakenly applied.
\

/
That moment when so-called independent women remain mute because a fellow girl don pour sand sand for their feminism movement.

This should go with the #beingfemaleinNigeria thread.

misssclassy:
[color=#000050]*It's Only in Nigeria that's it is a crime for a woman to have a car and not have a husband.

*When you are a Nigerian lady and you are still single at 30years, pastors will start casting out the spirit of anti-marriage from you.

*For a Nigeria woman, after school you must have two certificates.
University certificate and your marriage certificate.

*"Don't you know how to drive, see how you are driving like a woman"

*Every pretty light skinned girl is an ogbange

*Every single girl that dresses fine and has money is a runs girl.

*Every lady that wears skirt is a good girl. Every one that wears trouser is a bad girl.

I take solace in knowing that it is also woman to woman problem.

Everything happens for a reason.

When you take a deep look at the Nigerian society, you will understand that those questions and assumptions are not out of place.

Serves both of you right

What real man goes on a lunch date where he would be filibustered out of romance?
\

I thought they said she died after "Living in Bondage"

Smh for Nigerians and rumour-mongering.
\

Good.

People will go back to dancing shoki until October 25th. Then another mad rush to register.

\

There are too many things wrong in the pictures. From inappropriate combat gear, choice of rifle, no head gears, to mention a few.

But let me just keep mute.

The personnel with sniper rifle shouldn't be at that location. But I guess it was all photo ops.
