op should ask himself....how many people commit suicide in Nigeria...mind you, those guys will keep selling as long as people wants to take their mind off Nigerian stress and not songs that will keep making you think of why really need to be alive.

Take it easy bro, being full blooded Igbos doesn't stop us from having our individual differences..is hating BUHARI now a criteria for being more Igbo than others?....instigating every Ndi-Igbo to hate Buhari because of stereotype is what I still consider a crude ideology......................

I am the type that calls a spade a spade, human beign without Law and order are animals and that is why the Bible put it thus; "the heart of man is desperately wicked"........no tribe in Nigeria is free from crime of different kinds.....though I condemn in strong terms the wicked activities of the herdsmen in Nigeria but am sure Buhari has no hands in it........

Where were you when the Spate of kidnapping was unimaginable in the south-East? Did u associate that with GEJ? What of Omatse killings that consumed many of our security officers in Nasarrawa state during GEJ regime?

Gov. Ugwuanyi has wadded into the case as the chief security officer of the state and many of us are following closely to understand the root cause of the problem...

Just understand it wch way it suits you because. Everything in life is all about perspective, dog is a pet to some people while it is a delicacy to others........life itself is a game that unfolds itself at its own pace.

I like your response...neutral and mature.

do people even tend to read before rushing to comment this days...I can see one of the reason why many fail English language at O level....ish!

although headline is a little bit misleading.

puffpuff:
They should ask them what they have done to my
family. They should ask Governor Fayose what he
has done to my family. That is the other side I
described as personal and I don’t want to go into it.
Ask him, as a big brother to me, what he had done
to my family.

It is an open secret in Ekiti that Fayose is sleeping with your wife ! As Fayose's concubine, she was politically favoured and financially spoiled that you can no longer lord over her. Hence a separation between you and her. What else? You ridiculed yourself by running errand for the destroyer of your home. How do you expect him to handed you such crucial position as chief of staff? You must be a learner

on point.... let him give us full details....you can't have it all in life

The Nigerian Communications Commission has stopped MTN Nigeria Communications from implementing a tariff plan called MTN TruTalk+.

The commission says the company will face serious sanctions if it goes ahead to implement the plan because it has yet to give any approval for such service.

The commission also barred MTN from further advertisement of such service in the print, electronic media or its websites.

The commission, in a letter dated May 19, 2015 with ref No NCC/MTN/18/15 and signed by the Head, Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement, Mr. Efosa Idehen and Head, Legal and Regulatory Services, Mrs. Yetunde Akinloye, said the records of the commission showed that the operator had no approval of the regulatory authority before embarking on the new promotional tariff plan.

The commission said that its compliance unit revealed that the new tariff with daily access fee of N5, allowed subscribers to call all networks at 11k/sec and N20k/sec to United Kingdom, United States of America, India, Canada and China.

“The commission’s investigations show that MTN Nigeria Communications Ltd has already configured this tariff plan on their network and has therefore implemented the same without the appropriate regulatory approval.” It said the action contravened section 108 (1) of the Nigeria Communications Act 2003. “Consequent upon the above, the commission thereby directs MTN Nigeria Communications Ltd to immediately discontinue this Tariff Plan and all associated advertisements regarding the same or otherwise face regulatory sanctions accordingly” it said.

The NCC said it initiated the action in fulfillment of its mandate under section 89 of NCC Act 2003 having carried out a compliance check on the recently introduced MTN Nigeria Limited TruTalk+ Tariff Plan.

Bottom line from the post is just for you to really know what you want to do in life before going for any undergraduate course and while in school, try as much as possible to discover other talents in you and your entrepreneurer skills...instead of spending all your pocket money on frivolities, learn to use it to take little calculated business risks and put your talent to good use. EOD!

zick19:
Hello my fellow nairalanders, i will love to share with you some worldly things that happens in the church of God nowadays but doesn't pleases God.
I'm a kind of person that loves visiting different types of churches but some things that we see in churches these days are nothing to talk about, here are some:

1 PASTORS PREACHES WITH MOBILE PHONES AND LAPTOPS; This is a process in which the devil is using to send the bible into extinction, i see no big deal in pastors making use of thier bible to preach but some pastors of nowadays also wants to feel among, if devil come and attack them, is it their phone or laptop they will use to fight the devil?? The mobile bible is meant for reading when you are in a free time or you are in a bus and you just wish to go through the words of God....

2 COMPETITIONS IN THE CHURCH OF GOD; This is another thing the church of God is fond of doing nowadays, because sister Mary is putting on an expensive dress with some kinds of heavy jeweries, sister Jane is already planning the one that will beat the sister Mary's own next sunday, or brother Michael just bought a new BB Z30 last week, brother John has also gotten a new BB passport this week, is that what you come to do in church??

3 WORLDLY DANCE IN THE CHURCH OF GOD; The trending dance step in the church these days is "shoki", you will tell God when your hand turn to snake and the person you are about to strike. Some girls also what they do is twerking in the church, which can even make the pastor backslide, you better watch your ways.

4 CLAIMING BIG BOYS AND GIRLS IN THE CHURCH; This one is common in we youths, when pastor ask us to stand up and clap or praise the lord, that is when you will see some guys folding their arms, some won't even stand up at all, please if you don't praise God, who do you wnt to praise??

5 [b]PREACHING OF WORLDLY THINGS; Some pastors of these days has removed the kingdom of God from their dairy, all they know is to preach about the latest car, latest private jet, the latest mansion and how to make much money, vanity upon vaniy, all is vanity.

6 TAKING NOTE OF PASTOR'S MISTAKES; No one is above mistake but youths of nowadays don't want to know that, all they do is laugh at the pastor's mistakes, later you will start saying your prayers are not answered.

7 TOASTING IN THE CHURCH OF GOD; Hmmm.... A new babe just visited your church and because you don't want brother Mike to outsmart you in talking to her, you now decided to do your parol right inside the church, please the church is not a hook up zone, if you are in church, it's God you are there to meet not babe......

I guess that is okay for now, God bless us all.

As much as you really tried in pointing out some salient issues, I think you may need to review point no 1. I believe you should know that the world is evolving, before the discovery of paper and ink...I think there are means by which history are being recorded, so if focus is now shifting to software and gadgets, I believe there is the need for them to also be compliant...it now depends on what kind of use its been put to whether +ive or -ive.

noblezone:
What exactly did you folks understood from what you read?

The woman simply said prices did not come down immediately because there were already some quantities of fuel in stock and needed to be sold before the price adjustments. These old stocks has an estimate of about 40 days before they are cleared.

What happened to simple comprehension?

When there is an increase, will they wait for the old stock to be fully sold out before pump prices are adjusted at the filling stations...you've got to think the other way round when commenting on some issues in Nigeria so as not to be caught in the middle.

constance500:
Ram and camera pixel nko.

You are right on point...the RAM has a lot to do when purchasing an android phone.

Do our media houses have to resort to cutting corners when reporting news in other to be relevant? Some journalists will sit at home and be reporting issues which they won't even verify before publishing....speculative journalism is the order of the day in Nigeria this days...many of the children in orphanage homes would have been adopted but thanks to all this busy bodies.

@OP...you need to know that in Yorubaland, it is not every name you can decipher their meaning...which means you are free to borrow names...or an appellation can just stick and the reason can only be made known to you from the family...most places in Yorubaland get their names from antecedents, but there are some that the explanations will not just appeal to you.

Arva:
I have so many reasons why I should date a shy and introvert guy which I believe many of you forumites will agree to. Usually we ignore the shy and introvert guys, and date the confident, thug looking, rich, tall and ugly guys. The latter kind of guys are not usually the best in my opinion. Have you ever thought about dating a shy guy? There are so many different benefits and you'll be glad you did.

1. They are less intimidating
Confident and extrovert guys can be so intimidating because they surrounds themselves with all kinds of girls and bad manners. Shy guys are less intimidating. They are very gentle and meek and are less likely to reject you. This is one big reason to start rolling along with a shy guy. You'll love them.

2. It’s easy to make them blush
Shy guys have the tendency to blush easily with the slightest of compliments. Just compliment them about their looks and appearance and you'll see the magic of their blush. That really melts my heart a lot unlike the confident and rough guys who will only say a "thank you". That's even if they say it at all. Try dating a shy guy today. You'll love 'em

3. Shy guys won’t cheat on you
Shy guys will never cheat on you. Relationship cheating is what many girls hate and shy and introvert guys will never stoop so low to have another girl behind you but reverse is the case for confident and extrovert guys. They like to explore anything they see with boobs and big behinds even if its not human . Confident and extrovert guyz are just so awkward. You'll never like them. I prefer the introvert guys. They'll always stick to you.

4. They are so true, real and genuine
Me loves these set of guys because they are so true to themselves. They will never deceive you. They are just so charming and will never lie to you.

5. They are good listeners.
Shy and introvert guys are just awesome for one thing. They are extremely good listerners. Never will they counter you in any discussion or disrupt the flow of the discussion. All these adorable guys do is listen, listen, listen and listen. Unlike the extrovert guys who will just keep shouting to the extent that other people around you will hear the content of your discussion . Shy guys will never stoop so low to that extent. They are always very quiet and meek.

6. They don't party, drink nor smoke.
I'm begining to convince you that shy guys are cool right ? Another reason you should date a shy guy is that they don't engage in party, alcohol or weed. They being an introvert will not even allow them such bad manners. Reverse is the case for the confident guys. They'll make sure they engage in all sort of party. They being an extrovert makes them to boast about the latest and most expensive wines and alcohols they've tasted, they amount of weed the smoke daily and the number of girls they've had sex with from funmi to funke to fumilade to fumilayo That's crazy isn't it ? Shy guys are just so cool to themselves. They don't need to brag about anything. Whatever happens never leaks out.

7. Shy and introvert guys are very educated and very intelligent.
This is very true. Shy guys are very educated and very intelligent. They being very intelligent leaves them with no time for social activities. They are so charming. Date an introvert today and you'll be glad you did. I had one as a boyfriend and I wish I had him back.
Feel free to add yours.

Where to find a shy guy.
1: Shy guys are very easy to find. If you are still in the university, you can find them at the back seat of your classroom. When others are gones after a lecture, shy guys always remain alone, sitting down, alone with their thought. This is always your best time to approach them. Just compliment him on anything and watch him blush. They are very friendly.

2: During your NYSC.
During your service year, you'll find many of them at the orientation camp. I had sweet experiences with one during my NYSC days. He was so sweet and charming. You'll always find them at the back of the crowd doing almost nothing. They just stand there and clap for others engaging in one task or the other. They are very gentle set of people so don't mind them for not partaking in activites. They don't want to look rough like the extrovert guys. Those of you going for NYSC batch c come november 2014, watch out for the shy guys. You'll love them.

3: During church service
These awesome set of beings are easy to find during church service. They always sit at the back, rarely dance when its time for offering and they rarely come out to give testimonies because they are shy. Isn't that cool ? Unlike the extrovert guys that will even go the awkward length of dancing shoki and skelewu during church service . Shy guys will never do this . Oh how can I even forget the way they blush when you ask them questions during sunday school. They are so adorable.
Feel free to add yours.

How to know if a guy is shy and an introvert.

Its very easy to spot these sweet guys. They will always blush at every single thing you say. Another way to spot them is to monitor their movements. Never will you see a shy guy going out unnecessarily. They are always indoors and only come out with their charming self at night. These people are just so cool. Date one today and you'll be glad you did. I can testify to this. We dated for years and sweet memories still ring in me.
Feeel free to add yours.

You are right on point.
And to cap it all, they will try and understand you in every light...and will never feel so free to discuss their ex or what happens within your privacy.

Ucheosefoh:
We the business administration students don't study to get employed but to be future entrepreneurs and employ people so don't worry about us we know what lays ahead and ready to conquer.

Nice one there...

I want to believe you actually prefer impressing your friends rather than yourself...you need to ask yourself just three question
1.What do you want?
2.What is at that makes you happy?
3.Do you really want to live your life impressing people who don't really care?

Only you can really decide what you want.

May God save us from this epidemic ooo...apart from racist issue, this ebola alone can make one suffer unnecessary embarrasment from immigration officers from other countries.

All you need to know
About Mobile Device Protection
By: Director of IT at PerformerSoft


One in every five people in the world owns a smartphone - that’s a bigger gadget-per-person rate than computers have to show for themselves. Many smartphone owners use it to connect with others, write down information, take notes, photograph and run businesses - yet many don’t know the first thing about keeping their devices safe.

That’s why we’re presenting you with these steps today. Follow them and you won’t have to worry about losing your information and photos.
Step #1: Password protection

The simplest way to protect your smartphone is setting a complex password that would be hard for anyone to guess. Some people use a security format that only lets you log in if you swipe your fingers a certain way, but if you look closely at your phone, you’ll notice that your fingers leave marks that will be easy for others to discover. A complex password is more secure.
Step #2: Automatic lock

Regular password protection only works if you remember to turn it on. If you’re worried you’d forget or be in too much of a hurry, set up an automatic locking feature. You can decide ahead of time what’s the time period that needs to pass from the last time you used the phone and the time it locks itself up. You’ll then be able to unlock it using a password.

Step #3: Smartphone encryption

Automatic or not, password protection is not enough by itself. Smartphone data can still be stolen when it’s connected to a computer. Prevent that by encrypting your smartphone.
Step #4: Internet disconnection

If your smartphone automatically connects to WiFI networks, it also automatically gives away information, like who and where you are. For greater security, erase WiFi networks you don’t use and define when your smartphone should log in and out of networks you do use.

Step #5: Bluetooth and NFC

Just like WiFi connection, NFC (near field communication) and Bluetooth can give away information about you and your smartphone. To avoid this, turn them off when you don’t use them, set your smartphone to be non-discoverable and only connect with devices of people you trust.

Step #6: Operation system updates

Keep track of updates issued to your smartphone’s operating system and be sure to install them. However, don’t install them right away. New versions usually come with bugs that can only be discovered while enough people have updated their systems. Wait a little, but don’t neglect this step. Newer versions usually come with heightened security.

Step #7: Security apps

Smartphones work similarly to computers, so they, too, have software products that are meant to keep them safe - usually in the form of apps. Be sure to install protection against malware, privacy breach and data loss at the very least.

Step #8: App selection

First, only download apps from trusted places like the App Store and Google Play, which won’t let just any app in. Second, review other users’ comments before installing apps, to ensure no security issues have accidently found their way into the trusted stores. Also, don’t allow apps to access data on your smartphone if it doesn’t make sense to you. A photography app doesn’t need access to your e-mail, for example. If it requests it, be suspicious and look for an alternative photography app.

Step #9: Link clicking

You probably know that links from spam mail can easily lead to computer trouble. Keep in mind that they can also lead to smartphone disasters, and that they’re not alone. Answering text messages from unknown numbers or clicking on links these messages provide may cause damage as well.

Step #10: Keep Your Phone in a Safe Place

Placing your phone on the counter, in your pocket or forgetting it on a bench can easily happen as we go through a hectic daily life. Yet it’s also the easiest way to get your phone stolen, so always make sure you store it in a safe place.

Step #11: Link clicking

You probably know that links from spam mail can easily lead to computer trouble. Keep in mind that they can also lead to smartphone disasters, and that they’re not alone. Answering text messages from unknown numbers or clicking on links these messages provide may cause damage as well.

Step #12: Automatically Lock Your Phone

Get the smartphone to automatically lock when you haven’t used it in a while. This could be 1 minute or 30. It will then only unlock with the help of a password. As any time you create a password, don’t create it to be “ABCDEFG” or your phone number, but rather something others wouldn’t easily discover.

Different operating systems have different ways to automatically lock themselves:
iOS: Log in to “settings”, go to “general” and stop at “passcode lock”. Just above it, you’ll find “auto-lock”. Click on it to set the automatic locking.
Android: Go to the home screen and click on “menu”. Then, go to “settings”, continue to “location & security” and stop at “screen unlock”. There, set your password. Next, go back to “settings” and choose “display” to set the automatic locking.
BlackBerry: Click on “options” in the home screen. Next, click on “security options” and choose “general settings”. Choose your password, enable it, then choose the automatic locking.
Windows Phone 7: Go to “settings” and continue to “lock and wallpaper”. Decide on a password and select automatic lock or time out.


Step #13: Remote Control

Smartphones allow you to set a remote wipe - to erase all data from your smartphone long-distance in case it’s stolen. At the very least, ensure you can track your phone and data.

Here’s how to do it on the major operating systems:
iOS: Ensure you have at least version 4.2, so you can download an app called Find My Phone for free. Once you download it, go to your settings app, choose MobileMe and enable the Find My Phone app. It will give you remote, internet access to your smartphone and data in case your device gets stolen.
Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone 7: Lots of apps and software products are out in the market for these operating systems, such as Zenprise, Lookout Mobile Security, Symantec and NotifyMDM.


Step #14: Avoid Attacks

Malware, trojan horses and viruses are growing in numbers as mobile device usage grows. They have even managed to infiltrate trusted app sources, such as Apple and Google’s app stores. The way to combat it is awareness and preparation. Read customer reviews before downloading an app, don’t click on links or open media messages you don’t fully trust - and hurry up to install an antivirus app. Lookout and Symantec could be great solutions for Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone 7 users. If you’re into Apple products, try the Trend Smart Surfing app.

Step #15: Don’t give Wide-Open Access to every app

Downloading apps exposes your information - and sometimes that of others, too - to app developers, who usually don’t share what it is they do with the information your provide. Therefore, pay attention to what kinds of permissions an app asks of you, and don’t automatically say yes because you’re in a hurry. If a text processor app wants access to your phone call history, there could be something suspicious going on, so don’t allow it. If you use Android’s operating system, you can download the Lookout Premium app to receive information about the permissions you’ve given different apps.

Step #16: Mobile Business Security

IT departments are usually in charge of making sure a company’s employees’ smartphones are secure, especially those who access sensitive information on their phones. To navigate through the multiplicity of operating systems and phones available on the market, many IT departments now turn to software products such as Zenprise, NotifyMDM and Symantec to protect their company’s staff’s phones.

Most cyber attacks still happen on computers, yet mobile platforms are becoming increasingly popular, useful and easy to use. They’re also less protected than computers on many occasions. Taking this into account and taking preventative actions can make your life and your staff’s life a whole lot easier.
Stay Safe!

Sorry to disappoint you @ OP...that was in the days of old like you rightly said...women of nowadays want equal rights, and don't forget that God created everybody for a purpose, so if God has destined the woman to be more successful than the husband and ready to be submissive, it takes an understanding man to give her the necessary support she deserves...so its not about laziness most times.

It is a pity that we refused to learn in this country, we should all unify against any act that brings dishonour to this country as long as we still co-exist, because when you go out there, you will not be recognised by your tribe...and imagine you are going for a legitimate business overseas, and you are being subjected to extra search or even being asked to back to your country just because of the suspicion of your nationality...wake up my people!

Royal Roy: Hopefully it won't be another repeat of Ibadan to Ilorin express way!!

as far as am concerned that road is no longer in the map of Nigeria, despite different crashes that occur on that road every now and then.

delors: I posted a comment a while that most of those phones and their apps are developed by young guys between 17yo and 29yo. This must be an imagination of a young boy whose phones must have been damaged over and over again, and he suddenly thought about creating a phone that is indistructible. Whta are our own youngs doing? Empty-swagging up and down, everyone wants to sing like wizkid...poverty of imagination and creativity.

Yes, you are right to some extent, but you forgot that we don't leave In the same environment neither are we exposed to the same technology or development, could you please tell me the wonderful innovations being shown on nigerian TV here and there, how many of it do you have developed both through government or private initiatives, so many discoveries has been made by nigerians but who is supporting in perfecting their discoveries? please, do think twice before you criticize

ACM10: This thread is useless without pictures

This are some of the pics I could quickly snap the last time I passed through osogbo.

Hello house...does anyone know their salary range and working terms? Any insight will really be appreciated...thanks in advance.

I often wonder when this country is going to move forward,with the way we followers usually prefer to be lead without having the urge to question our leaders why some things ought to be or not...I always read or see with disgust how, despite the fact that there is a great poverty,unemployment at the highest level,corruption everywhere, even in religious places in whom we should even find some respite, our leaders will prefer to flaunt their ill gotten money in our face,despite the fact that this money belong to the masses...this brings to mind what happened during PEJ,s visit to Rivers-state, it is totally a show of shame and should be condemned in the highest order and despite the fact that we could still get some people to criticize some of the ills in the society, some people put sentiment into everything...I pity the future of this country if we all continue this way, in a country where graduates that are supposed to be gainfully employed and plow back whatever little they can contribute to the economy are busy looking for maga, where the rich keeps getting richer and the poor, poorer-we need to awake and forsake tribalism and sentiment when there is need to caution our leaders on the way we are being lead...please this is just my opinion and if you are going to criticize...BE constructive...God bless Nigeria.

I will advise u to forget about those frauds,they will only waste you time, they may be all this people selling health products, they are fond of using different names to deceive innocent jobseekers

You are damn right, they are bunch of criminals...don't really know how they got my number because receiving invites for interview with different company names hiding under same guise...I couldn't just hide my frustration bearing in mind money and time wasted.
