Legal counsel, if nothing else, can act as a buffer and a filter. Think about each and every time you went before a judge and argued those 18 motions. You cannot take back what you have said on each occasion, even when it contradicts what you said on a prior occasion.

Last time: For your sake, you HAVE an attorney. Stop sabotaging yourself and allow that attorney to work.

Hi powerhouse5050.
Take this advice very seriously and make sure you don't represent yourself again. Allow a professional do it. This is the rest of your life we're talking about here.

Hi OP. In trying to make sense of all your assertions, I have a couple of questions that I would like to ask you, if you don't mind.

You keep buttressing that you wore pants while the attacker wore khaki shorts. Seeing that the perpetrator wasn't apprehended immediately, do you agree that he would have had ample time to quickly change into something else?
Alternatively, you said there were 2 different footages. Where they of the same timestamp, so as to back up your alibi that you were somewhere else?

And about your call records... Was it established that you were on the phone with a MD at the exact time the incident was happening? Not some minutes before or after, but at that exact time.
If so, was this crucial evidence tendered at your trial - was the MD subpoenaed to testify?
If not, why?

Finally, at least 2 people are saying that after the cctv footage was shown to you, you confirmed it was you and pleaded guilty. Is this true?

IF you're truly innocent, I can't begin to imagine all you must feel. God help you!

1stGenAmerican:
So if I continue to spot lies and realize that you guys are doing more harm than good, you want me to shut the fvck up?

Your wish is my command

What people don't realise is that there's absolutely nothing wrong with a dispassionate, dissenting opinion. It provides balance at moments like these.

Is it advisable to drive the car while the naked wire is on the car?

Well, it's better to err on the side of caution. But, technically, you should be safe inside the car, as far as there's no defect to cause a breach.

the day i can remember vividly was on the 29th of november 2020.... I was driving home that night while it was raining cats and dogs. I was in my car and i entered the estate where i live... Suddenly, while still driving, a naked life wire dropped right infront of my car and was sparking, i was flabbergasted... I parked my car right infront of this naked wire and i got down. The wire was still Sparking right on the ground.. The security guards came around and an electritian was called.. Had it been i did not see the wire dropping, only God knew what would had happened, when i got home that day, i couldn't thank God enough..

Cars are Faraday cages, so nothing would have happened to you, as far as you were inside the car when it dropped.

Had my first dose of Moderna yesterday. Taking the 2nd dose on the 12th of next month.

Happy birthday to the Odidigborigbo himself!

You make very good points.

As much as it's tempting to get that thrill from speeding, deep down one knows it's wrong.

At high speeds your car feels so light, hence any sharp manoeuvring, maybe to avoid a pothole or an object on the road, can lead to fatal consequences.

TRS2020:
Please I am considering PhD in Massey University and University of Canterbury without funding...I was wondering if it is possible to find a job to sustain myself during my study period.

Which of these two schools is advisable in terms of location for more job opportunities.

I will really appreciate your advice.

Thank you.

I am considering going for my PhD, too. But I haven't settled on a school yet. Still doing my research. All the best of luck!

acunon:
Where is it located?

Asaba, Delta State.

As a matter of fact, I bought the TV a couple of years back from you.

My 48" Samsung curved TV UE48J6300 has a defective screen. Is it something you can fix and if so, how much?

McSquishi:
Thanks. I like a little bit of everything

Exactly how it should be.

While Biggie was one of the best emcees ever, Tupac was just in a whole world of his own. So, I always feel it's sacrilegious (to Pac) to compare both, in whatsoever form.

Dear Mama, for me. I get the same vibes from DMX's I miss you.

McSquishi:
These can’t be compared. Juicy is a song you listen to for fun, it gets everybody singing together, it makes you smile from nostalgia. Dear Mama makes you get deep & quiet, thinking of your mom & thinking of Pac’s story.

Better comparison would be between Juicy and I Ain’t Mad At Cha, Keep Ya Head Up, or even Changes.

I like your taste in music. Hope it's eclectic?

It's not set in stone. The bigger / less petty person always apologizes first. Inner peace is always more valuable than bearing grudges.

The scenario you painted is quite toxic and should be trashed out with a heart to heart.

This isn't commensurate with his crime at all.

Another day another sordid incident. Nigeria, my country!

Governor Okowa is a most astute politician. You just got to give it to him.

God forgive me. I chuckled a bit, at the way he was lamenting.

That being said, I don't condone or encourage fraud in whatsoever form.

And while I understand the craving for diversifying one's earnings, especially in this unprecedented harsh economic reality, we should learn from past experiences and be wise where we put our money.

Let her take the decision herself, because if she stays, only because you asked her to, she might always keep comparing you guys, in her head, and wondering what if?

Ultimately, it's her decision to take, not yours.

Nigeria, my country.

That guy repeatedly kicking her head like that is a big fool.
So annoying and irritating.

I should say it depends on the Church in question.
Most Churches have a welfare / benevolence department.

Sorry about your experience.

Truth is, even in Churches, cliques exist.
If you were in the inner caucus, I'm sure they would have more helpful to you. I am not justifying their actions. Just saying it as I see it.

Swipa:
It is embarrassing. That's why I don't put hope on getting awards and human accolades . Even look at the balon d'or and FIFA best awards and you'll see all kinds of politics being played. Greata won the time's person of the year for advocacy against climate change but the Indian lady who organized people and planted 50,000 trees didn't get any recognition. The same whining Greta was caught using plastic cups in a restaurant lol

"This life nor balance!"

Losing to Al Gore's work on global warming feels somehow to me, even as an environmentalist.

Zenor23:
Yes bro,you get it,that's why lil Wayne is always grinning.Surprised you don't know jhybo,check him out on IG.Dude is so talented and his lyrics are always deep.I learnt a lot about society from his songs.

Though I have an eclectic musical taste, I am not too keen on Nigerian songs.

The hip-hop and rap songs of circa 2000 - 2010 are more my thing.

Zenor23:
"As a real Lagos Island boy,I no dey trust anything.Mo le fi condom gan masturbate'-Jhybo in Iya Yin
" When you get golden teeth,everything go dey funny"-Jhybo in Jibola Jasper

I don't know this song. However, I think what the artiste is saying, in your latter quote, is that if you have golden teeth, you'll always want to show it off at any given opportunity.

What did I just read??!!

samwash:
NCC have lifted the ban ,but the network operators are yet to commence.
If I may ask did your friend retrieve it in the network operators office ? In which state?

They've commenced in Asaba, Delta State since last week.

And, yes, he retrieved it at the network operator's office.

NCC has lifted the ban on retrieval of lost / damaged SIM cards. I know of a colleague who retrieved his MTN SIM card last week Friday.

You can call your network provider's customer care number, for more guidance.

Nazgul:
Mr man, whether she loves her husband or not is none of your business. She's getting married and she wasn't pointed a gun and forced to say I do. Which means she willing agreed to marry him after breaking up with you. So what's your problem?

Men tell their side chicks how their wives disgust them, and how they'll divorce her and marry them just to get into their panties.

Women tell their boyfriends how their fiance/husbands maltreat them just to get their love and affection.

It's all a game, if you love yourself just stay away from her and her marriage and focus on your life. A word they say is enough for the wise.

My thoughts exactly.
