Goodmorning Nls. I got this army of cats terrorizing my ceiling, pls what can I do to Chase them away cos I heard that they don't like some specific kind of chemicals or smell.
Need help pls.

If you chase them away, be ready for rat infestation and that is worse than cats.

These guys don't joke with their tax laws at all.

I tried the potato in over salted food and it was amazing! It reverted to the exact salt level I wanted and the surprising thing is that the potato didn't taste salty after I removed it.

Did you put the potato inside the food on the fire? or did you drop the raw potato inside the food after you have brought it down from the fire?

I didn't have any funny experience with my first ever android phone (Samsung galaxy pocket) I read and knew about android OS very well before purchasing my first android phone.

Rukkydelta:
Why do you have to share my post for the whole of nl to see ?

How did I share your post?
MODIFIED : oops, I didn't know when I share it, it wasn't intentional. I was scrolling down and I didn't even know I shared your post.
I have unshared it sha.

That is wrong oo! In my opinion.

You try, you be fine guy. I wish u good luck. I don't participate and I don't vote in such things.

After Airtel released this 2G data pack, a lot of Naija bloggers came up with various (actually all the same) ways to make the 2G only plan work with 3G network. Many of us will agree that this walk arounds didn't work. (3G/4G Otptimizer, Script Manager and co).

So, I did my own research and found out that Airtel India also launched the same plan about 4/5 years ago. I'm sure we all know that the only set of people more desperate for internet cheats than Nigerians are Indians. It turns out our 9ja bloggers got the Script Manager stuff from the Indians and judging from the numerous comments in the numerous Indian sites I went through, Script Manager didn't work for them either.

Now, the method I'm about to show you guys is very frustrating and is meant for those who have already subscribed for the plan. (I can't advise my enemy to do this plan)

This is it:

1. Turn off your data
2. Set your preferred network type to 2G only
3. Turn on your data
4. If you are already downloading a file, the download should resume at this point (Move to step 6)
5. If you are not downloading anything, open any webpage in your browser.
6. Without turning off your data, set your preferred network type to 3G only.

N.B: You can only use 10MB at a time both on 2G and 3G before you have to reset the network. When your download pauses or your browser shows "Your current data balance is zero", repeat steps 1-6.

P.S: Funnily, I've used about 2.8GB this way but upon checking my data balance, it shows that I haven't used more than 200MB. So, what I deduced is that the data reads only when you're on 2G. I'll update this post with my testimony if I can use more than 7GB before it expires.

Sorry for the long post. Here's a smiley: or two.

PSPS: If you're downloading large files on your mobile, use Opera Mini. Uc browser has a way of making the file corrupted due to pausing and starting. If you're on PC, use IDM. Thanks.

What you posted is the absolute truth. That is how I MANAGE to download small things. This plan wanted to frustrate the life outa me. You are absolutely right brother.

Nice. Is there any resort on Tomaro Island? What is the proximity from Inagbe island? Can you share pictures? Would love to explore. Thanks!

there are no resorts on tomaro Island. It is just like 10 to 15 minutes boat ride to Inogbe grand resort. for pictures, I will share a link to a thread about tomaro island with you.

go through all the pages of the thread, you will find lots of pictures I posted about the Island.

Lexusgs430:
Nice but not cheap !!!!
NB: Imagine sleeping a night for almost 50k. That one nah original one-chance sleeping

That is why I always mention that I feel blessed on this my Island. I enjoy the splendor of Nature at zero cost. My island (Tomaro) isn't far from the resort.

Just go for gionee if u want to have peace.

Wakaholic:
Lol. You can check their website and contact them on the numbers you find there. You can also find room rates there (it's btw 45k-300k).The charter boat was 80k/return trip. However, you can take a day trip and come back to town if you don't want to spend the night. It's just 15mins from Victoria Island. I would have included the link but not sure i'm allowed to do that here.

Inogbe grand resort is close to my island. The Ooni of Ife owns that place. very nice place.

joey150:
Its not always accurate but it's a rough estimation and can help decide on better cables and charger adapters to use. Nice share o.p


I also bought a 4 port adapter. But mine works ok

If I had known about this app earlier, I would have bought a better charger. The two ports with 1.0A output is manageable sha.

Pamelayoung:
I just love this Mercy she is indeed a unique character

No be lie.

I recently bought a 4 port USB charger with a supposed output rating of 2.1A, 1.0A, 0.5A and 0.5A respectively. I was appalled by how slow the charger was. An output rating that was supposed to be two times faster than my "follow come" 1000mA charger.
It was a funny thing when I noticed that the ports that was supposedly rated 0.5A was faster than the port rated 2.1A. I went to playstore to download AMPERE and CHARGER TESTER(ampere meter).
These APP do basically the same thing. They tell you the rate at which your phone is charging. No more buying of fake or fraudulently labelled charger output rating. You can test the charger and be sure it is the output rating stated on the charger before you pay.
It also shows the charging rate when you try different cord and the type of USB cord you use, also affects how fast or slow your phone charges.
PIC 1: AMPERE
PIC2: CHARGER TESTER (AMPERE METER)

I am writing this for those who finds it difficult to use airtel 2g data to download. this will help you increase your downloading speed by some percentage i.e if you get up to 20kb/s it will be increase to about 80.72kb/s. to 100kb/s or even higher.

first step: use UC browser (Fast Download)

second step: Start your download with 2g

third step: switch back to 3g and wait for few minutes, your download with resume at higher speed.

Note: this is working for me perfectly, so if it work for you.

I cant seem to be able to subscribe to this plan. It keep telling me insufficient credit for this plan if I dial *482*1#

MasterCare4u:
Hello Everyone,
I sincere recommendation on GIONEE phone.

Has anyone use GIONEE phone? does it really have good battery life-span?
Thank you in advance

GIONEE phones are good. They are stronger than those Tecno phones out there. Battery life is good and the overall build is strong and sturdy. I recommend you but the M (MARATHON) series for big battery capacity.

I just cant subscribe to the 14 days package even when I have more than 200 naira credit on my phone.

seedorfy134:
am using it and it fast than before

I tried to subscribe to the package but I keep getting the response that I have insufficient credit for this package. This is even when I have over #200 credit on my phone.

CandyDiamond:
Majority of Yoruba votes in lagos goes to APC, with Tunubu influence and area boys on the hand of APC; please agree that Igbo people in lagos gave APC a hot chasing in last election in lagos.

The OPC and touts that destroyed both public and private properties during the build up to the elections were PDP supporters and are Yorubas. Agbaje is a son of the soil. He is loved and supported by a lot of Yorubas.

CandyDiamond:
It will be an easy task for an Igbo man to become the governor of Lagos state, counting from last election where Ambode narrowly defeated the Igbo backed Agbaje in the last election.

Agbaje had a very high yoruba votes. The reason Agbaje scored high was because yoruba votes was divided between Ambode and Agbaje. Agbaje wasn't a hated candidate, even among Yorubas.

Scholes007:
All I read was just your personal fear. Anyone elected as a governor must act according to constitution, it doesn't matter the tribe he/she is. Your fear is just tribal and I assume lagos politics should be beyond that.

Yes, those are my peesonal opinions not fears and I want opinion of others too.

artmostfair:
Your opening statement is like someone who sells bullets and guns in a store but turns around to claim that he doesn't like violence or war.

Deep down within yourself you know why you started this thread. Deep down in your mind you know what to expect when you ask a question like this in present day Nigeria.

And I know that this is for your enjoyment.

You are wrong, All these childish online diatribe is not my thing anymore. I am a Yoruba, born and bred in Lagos. My mother was raised in Isale eko gan gan. I was just wondering what will happen if an Igbo becomes our governor. An Igbo man (Ndubuisi Kanu) was once the Military administrator of Lagos state but that was before the (agitation), acrid animosity and the the charged political rivalry and division inroduced in the last administration which transcends to the present.
If an Igbo is elected Governor in Lagos,
1. will he be allowed to rule?
2. will he be impeached by the majority yoruba house of assembly?
3. How will the Yorubas contain the boasting of the Igbos that they have now "collected" Lagos they usually claim they develop
4. will there be a change in the state's LAND USE ACT ?
5. will the Yorubas be "victimised"?
6. will he try to depose the kings he did not like?
7. will there be favouritism, nepotism and biase to the benefit of the Igbos?
8. Will the EZE NDIGBO's stool be exalted to the position of the ELEKO of EKO?
9. On whom the control of the markets be vested?
So many scenerios was just playing out in my head IF that ever happens. What will the political and economic situation of Lagos be like?
I am not a tribalist, my GF that I have intention of marrying is an Igbo lady. I like her NOT because she is IGBO, but because she doesnt give me wahala, she is respectful, kind and understanding.

luckylucky:
Crazy! Yeah you are a crazy village boy

You are right, my part of Lagos us as quiet, serene and peaceful like a village. On the "CRAZY" part, we all "Livi lavida loca"

This thread is not intended for tribal dog fights nor was it created bearing any malicious purpose and intent. I no longer engage in online tribal dog fights anymore and I dont endorse it in any way.
Based on the online animosity and diatribe between Igbos and Yorubas and the whole "LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND" cliche, Lagosians (Settlers, Indigines and Lagos born and bred) should Picture this scenerio. WHAT IF THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF LAGOS STATE IS IGBO? Wetin you think say go happen?

Na abortion me I suspect too

omenka:
Oh yeah, almost forgot. The Lost Tribe of Everywhere.

Their latest claim is that they are from Burundi.

oops thats a new one. The LOST TRIBE FROM EVERYWHERE. I nor go talk because my girl na Igbo. A very nice one. IGBO AMAKA.

Davbams:
wetin Ooni see for this lady body sef...

Wetin happen? Olori nor fine reach?

Happy birthday Obiwon.
