I don't think it's scamming. Likely those who want to sell the account to him so they've taken up all likely names so he can buy it
SportsRe: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Genort Rohr by jedisco(m): 1:07pm On Oct 15, 2019
boninho:
He's tactically deficient, too conservative, very predictable with his playing system.... He's blessed with a very good talented squad but he's not progressive and innovative....hence, we can never see the very best of those players
So who would you like to replace him?
SportsRe: Why Do Nigerians Dislike Genort Rohr by jedisco(m): 12:59pm On Oct 15, 2019
Good question @op.

I wonder why we people are unnecessary critical of him when he is performing well given his group of players.
Ask those against him who they think should replace him and they go quiet
Let's not have another José Mourinho and ManU situation where we start looking back to reappoint him after being sacked. We know the crop of players we have and our expectations should be tenable.

I've noticed the brightest women have very few men showing them interest while the low iq ones are spoilt with choice. Its only on the internet i see men asking for intelligent women.
Sadly, that's the fact. It's that way everywhere but moreso in the black community. But then, 'low IQ' is also relative as I believe a vast majority of people have an area where they excel. Fact is the black race in general need to up their game. BTW, are you the one on your profile?
PoliticsRe: Osinbajo Arrives Norway For NABA Summit (Photos) by jedisco(m): 12:02pm On Oct 08, 2019
All of a sudden, different countries are now lumping African leaders together and organising 'summits' for them. Worse still, you see African leaders going there looking for free lunch that would still be looted back to Europe.We've had China, Japan.... now this!
When would Africa grow up?

I'm worried another form of neocolonialism is being hatched in the name of 'trade deals'
PhonesRe: (Mathematical Proof) - How People Justify Buying Phone Of N600,000 by jedisco(m):
In as much as it is good to be financially prudent (as I guess was the intention of the initial poster on the first thread), it is necessary to know that people would always spend on what they consider valuable.

People keep mentioning Bill Gates and Dangote who they know very little about. While those two may not be found with the latest iPhone, they can spend millions of dollars a week's holiday, art, horses, or watch some sport they have interest in. IT'S ALL ABOUT INTEREST!
Dangote may not have the latest phone, but would not fly economy on an international flight. However, right now with same budget for a flight, I'd prefer to fly economy and can use the change to get a good phone I'd use for at least a year. To me that makes sense but that does not mean Dangote is wasting money. It's all about things people attach value to.

The original poster also spoke about using a laptop of 60k cos all he does is reading and writing. Alot would prefer a more premium laptop cos of sleekness, better screen, speed, portability and ease of use even if they only read and watch videos on it. That doesn't mean they sre stupid or he's smarter than them.

People easily give financial advice when it's another person's money but hardly for theirs. Give advice but avoid being judgemental. Live and let live

BTW @op, it's proof and not prove

They always believe that everything begins and ends with the EPL even though La Liga has always shown its tactical superiority. Well it's part of the English media hype.

The government keeps sinking billions into 'rehabilitating' these refineries but they never function for more than 3 months. The only people who are being rehabilitated are those handling the contract.
Doing the same thing over qnd over again yet expecting a different result.

I wonder what people who said Guardiola cannot survive in England are saying now.

If this was a scoreline in LaLiga, some would say it's a weak league and cannot happen in EPL.

These are the kind of scorelines Messi would be producing if he ever played in the EPL

PetsRe: White Woman Feeding Her Puppy At A Fast Food In Onitsha (Pictures) by jedisco(m):
So what's the big deal about this?
Is it because she's white? Or someone just showing off his inferiority complex

Sometimes I don't understand why some of us view fellow humans as demigods just because they have a different skin colour. If it was a black person doing this in the UK or US, I wonder how many white people would even take note.

More annoyingly, it was even pushed to the front page
RomanceRe: Nairalanders,is This A Wife Material??? by jedisco(m):
donaldtruman:
Not at all....I ve had 3 previous serious relationship.
Is just that I don't know how I ve come to love this girl that I can't say no to her for anything and do all I can,even go hungry to make her happy.

Besides,I had it in mind to marry her but it is obvious that I ve been stupid based on d reactions coming in here.

But d question I keep asking myself is how do other single girls who do not even have a job afford their classy lifestyle? Like some of her friends who also ve boyfriends and just bought phones for #400k?

If it is not their boyfriends that bought it for them,is it that all these other single girls in Nig are all prostitutes.

Why am asking this question is b:cos d reactions here shows that I seem to be d only man in this country who has spent so much on a woman or did what no man has ever done.
To answer your question, most young dudes don't spend crazily on a lady. It's more common with older men who have only money to offer. People can get money from different sources but other jobless ladies using expensive gadgets shouldn't be your excuse for what's going on in your life. Fact is I've noticed that dudes with more money spend relatively less on ladies than their less bouyant counterparts as ladies tend to stick if they see you're loaded and have a clear plan for life even if you don't spend much on them

From what you said, the girl is milking you.Her utterances show she wouldn't be with you if your cash sources dwindle and she's likely sleeping around given the company she keeps too.

I've once seen someone do something similar but on a much smaller scale and the end result was devastating for him. The girl simply saw him as weak. Once a lady begins to see you as weak, you'd loose any respect she has for you.

Don't be fooled by her beauty. There are more beautiful ladies out there. Call of the relationship, cut your losses and move on!

BTW, don't you think your expenditure seems over the top moreso given your job role which may not have long-term security? I make over double of what you earn but haven't and don't see myself spending anything remotely close to that on someone I'm dating. You have to invest for your future.


P.S I'm still trying to wrap my head around your story and wondering if It's really true

CrimeRe: 50 AK-47 Rifles Recovered From Nasarawa Deputy Governor's Attackers by jedisco(m): 11:55am On Sep 01, 2019
I don't know if to be happy he was caught or annoyed it took so long.
It's clear it was well known he was a kingpin. So why did they have to wait until the deputy governors convoy was attacked before fishing him out.
If it was the average person they killed, nothing may have been done about him.
The Nigerian security agencies need to sit-up. In fact,we need a total overhaul

PropertiesRe: Experience With Applying PVA Over Simple Emulsion Paint by jedisco(op): 7:09pm On Aug 10, 2019
westliverenterp:
The walls will not be shinning as expected when you apply p.v.a to the painted wall. This is because the wall was not screeded before painting. Instead of using Satin paints in all the building why don't you use satin paints on the sitting room and the surrounding of the house. While the fence and the bedrooms should be painted with high grade emulsion. For efficient painting and screeding services call or whatsapp me 07088547073, 07051934963.
Thank you. I was told here on NL that matte paint may be a good option between the two. Would it also need screeding?

Someone also said using satin outside on areas with much sun may make the paint peel off the wall with time
PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by jedisco(m): 9:12am On Aug 10, 2019
gbadexy:
You may go with matte then. As pricing go, my matte is in the price range of emulsion grade of brands like eagle, president. I'm not even mentioning brands like berger and du lux.
matte is cleanable, flat and smooth on application even though the sheen and clean ability isn't as high as satin or silk but it still gives a classy finish.
Thanks. Project is in the north
PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by jedisco(m): 6:15pm On Aug 09, 2019
gbadexy:
Thank you very much sir.
@ jedisco, what you were told to do is apply a cheap/weak form of varnish on an emulsion but it's not worth it.
Firstly, the emulsion can't be as flat and smooth as satin or matte and it would be noticeable. The PVA would give it some sheen but it would be obvious it's just regular emulsion beneath it.
Secondly, you won't need to screed or prime if you just wanted to stick to emulsion, but add sheen to the emulsion and the contours the emulsion didn't reveal would be obvious due to reflection of light on the shining surface.
Lastly, PVA is not as water resistant as acrylic based varnish, so you may not be able to give the wall repeated cleaning.
Thanks. You gave a good overview of everything.
I was looking for an option between the two. Something with a better outlook than plain emulsion and not as expensive as satin
PropertiesExperience With Applying PVA Over Simple Emulsion Paint by jedisco(op): 9:25am On Aug 09, 2019
Morning house.

I have a building I want to paint with satin paint but I'm holding back because of the cost. Someone is advising me as an alternative to use simple emulsion paint and apply PVA after it has dried to give it a shinny, waterproof finish.
Has anyone tried this or expernced the outcome?

What would you advise?

SportsRe: Mikel Obi Admits AFCON2019 Will Be His Last Tournament For Nigeria by jedisco(m): 12:49pm On Jul 09, 2019
Simply a legend.

My respect for him soared during the Olympic games where he virtually shouldered the burden of the team both financially and on the pitch. Even during the AFCON we won, he was the leader.

He may not be playing well now but it takes nothing from him as one of Nigeria's football legends.

We should treat him with some respect he deserves

There are specific patterns one looks for in writing and its clear it was written by same person. If I decided to do something similar, I'd at least tweak the handwriting of one of the participants to make it believable to people with at least average IQ

BTW, I have come across this picture several times here and my reaction to it has been the same. It's just like most of the madeup chats and romance stories posted by different bloggers here to trend.
