Who is using the mi max 3 4gb 128gb here?
Please share how it feels.
Been using it for over 4 months now. Crazy good, sleek, fast with super excellent battery backup. My charger rarely leaves my home now and on some days, I don't bother charging despite being a heavy user.

I have lost count of how many times people walk up to me and ask which phone it is and how to get it.
I must also add that the initial Chinese done Global ROM had connectivity issues but this was later rectified via an update

PoliticsRe: Why I Support The Freezing Of Peter Obi Account by jedisco(m): 3:00am On Dec 10, 2018
litdutchboy:
As an educated Nigerian with vast knowledge of the politicians that have turned Nigeria to one if the biggest shitholes in the world through endemic and monumental corruption I support the freezing of Peter Obi's account.
Yes, the anti corruption war of APC is selective and only targets the opposition. As long as one of the thieves that have plundered Nigeria are caught in the crossfire, I remain happy.
Peter Obi boasts about the N75 Billion naira he left after his tenure in cash and assets to the state.This is despite the fact that Anambra has no single world class hospital,portable water for citizens,drainage system,transportation system or world class standard road is a disgrace.

During his tenure Peter Obi refused to conduct local government elections, so he could control local government funds throughout his entire tenure. He only decided to finally conduct the elections a few months before he was to handover to Obiano.

Peter Obi built a Multi Billion naira Shopping Mall in the heart of Abuja during his tenure.Obi’s admirers like to claim that the money he invested in the mall came from wealth he acquired before he became governor in 2007. This begs the question why he never built something of that scale before he had access to state funds.Construction started on the shopping complex roughly a year into Peter Obi’s tenure as governor.
The Federal Inland Revenue Services (FIRS) sealed Peter Obi NEXT INTERNATIONAL for failure to pay Company Income Tax, Withholding Tax and Education Tax since 2006.This was during the time he spent billions of naira to build one of the largest malls in Abuja during his tenure. He also built the biggest shopping mall in Port Harcourt, commissioned by Governor Wike.

This is really funny and looks like a paid post. You should learn to give credit where due and criticise constructively.

While I wouldn't hold brief for any politician, most of your post lacks a basis. Ask anyone in the know about happenings in Anambra before, during and after Obi's tenure. Fact is that while virtually no state in Nigeria can boast of truly world class roads, Obi did a lot in improving the road network of state owned roads in Nigeria. Today Anambra has one of the best network of Stare owned roads in the country and that is due to the continuum from Ngige to Obi. He had a plan and went about it judiciously.

Secondly, the current state teaching hospital was built by Obi. This was a huge improvement over what was obtainable previously. Currently, the hospital is used as a training center for students and professionals alike.

You're trying to belittle his efforts in putting up savings for the state is another one. If half of the governors in Nigeria had governors that could take their states from debts to savings of 75 billion after their tenure, Nigeria wouldn't have had the last economic woes where majority of states couldn't pay salaries and needed to be bailed out

you keep mentioning world class this and that.... Mention any state in Nigeria including the FCT that has a world class standard of any of those things you mentioned above.
I value improvement when I see one.

Also, while personally I support separation of powers and strengthening of the local governments, looking at Nigeria today, its hard to fault him on what he did. The greatest corruption takes place at the local government level as there is virtually no accountability there. What we should be asking for is strengthening of the system with delegated responsibilities for the LGs.

Like him or hate him, Obi is an economic guru. He earned his bragging rights before getting into politics and it's virtually impossible for someone with such economic knowhow not to be doing well for him self. That his businesses are flourishing is testament to his ethics. Afterall, the typical Nigerian governor would have siphoned the 75billion to himself and borrowed more too.


Finally while I may have some issues with Peter Obi, I give him credit where its due and recognise him as one of the best governors Nigeria has produced.

PoliticsRe: Boko Haram: Atiku, PDP Should Stop Mocking Our Fallen Heroes Over Attacks, Group by jedisco(m): 3:36pm On Nov 24, 2018

A civil society group, the Coalition Against Terrorism and Extremism in Nigeria (CATE) has warned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and it’s presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar to quit playing politics with fallen national heroes.

Ahead of the 2019 elections, the opposition appears hell bent on dragging the ruling party to the mud – despite a recent pre-dusk raid on 157 Task Force Battalion in Metele, Borno State.

The group made this known in a press statement signed by its National Coordinator, Gabriel Onoja.

According to CATE, the PDP is trying too hard to undermine the remarkable progress of the Nigerian military under the current dispensation which has helped to push Boko Haram to fringes of the Lake Chad only.

CATE expresses its condolences to the Federal Government of Nigeria, the Military and the families and loved ones of the departed soldiers but is of the view that their memory should not be desecrated by those turning their sacrifices into campaign barbs.

“We specifically refer to the statements issued by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. They both only stopped short of mocking the fallen soldiers by the utterances and misrepresentation of facts contained in their responses to the attack and the resulting deaths.
What is thishuh?
No source? I thought all front page topics are verified or has Nairaland started offering sponsored posts?

Just checked and saw that the op just registered today and has about 4 topics already and with all "her" topics being political. There is certainly something fishy and it looks like money has changed hands

@Seun and @Mods I think you should look into this. Hope someone is not collecting money from politicians for propaganda by pushing such unverified topics to the front page

Hello guys.

I've finally been able to solve the network issue with my mi max 3 that equally plagued most earlier bought devices that had the unofficial global ROM installed.

The MIUI 10 update which is available via OTA at about 765MB solves it. So no need of flashing the Chinese ROM. Quite a relief
PoliticsRe: Is President Buhari Right About The Nigerian Media? by jedisco(m):
He is absolutely wrong

Firstly, we're talking about a president who dodged his presidential debate and has never had a live presidential chat with the local media- something which should be done monthly. He set out by gallivanting around the world and only granting exclusive reviews to foreign media when outside the country forgetting about the local media. Maybe he thought that way he could sustain the propaganda by foreign news outlets who brought him to power. He perhaps thought foreigners would be involved in voting. However of recent they've seen him for who he truly is and have been dragging him and his so called integrity on the floor. He now remembers the local media when he's already sinking. Shows a man with slow thought process.

He should start by organising a live presidential media chat. But I'm sure he's handlers wouldn't allow him or they'd insist he should answer questions from a book because he's sure to make more bigoted and explosive statements whenever he speaks without being told what to say

Secondly, he has to perform at least to an extent so that the media outfits have something to constantly report. But here we're talking about a disaster of a man who twice pushed Nigeria into the greatest recession she has ever seen. Even his paid BMC crew are finding it hard to Photoshop his already battered image. Hence, most times they resort to insults.

Just look at how they're throwing personal attacks at Atiku instead on focusing on telling the electorates what their master has achieved.

Fact is that now that he's desperate, he'd start throwing tax payers money around in a bid to salvage his drowning image.
HealthRe: Life Expectancy In Nigeria Now 55 Years – WHO by jedisco(m): 10:52am On Oct 24, 2018
SEONaijaExpert:
I disagree

I understand the average Nigerian is under pressure to make ends meet but if this was a stats for the US, I'd agree because of the diverse health conditions that's more rampant.

We're stronger than this. All these conditions stated are not peculiar to Nigeria and they don't kill Nigerians as it's painted here.
You're quite wrong. The average health indices for Nigeria is quite poor. The number of Nigerian children that die of malaria and diarrhoea or women dying as a result of complications in pregnancy is staggering especially compared to a lot of nations.

just so sad... saw this news on front page and had to call my parents in ungwan Sunday area in Kaduna... they told me of a man I know very well, who went to kasuwa magani on that faithful day and till date no one have heard from him, the dreaded truth is just that he might as well be a victim. his phone is switched off.
I wouldn't blame the people for any reprisal attack. the government should be more proactive, these senseless killings just have to stop.
After three days of the incident and no response, the bitter truth may be that he was a casualty.

It's not just the reprisals that worry me. It's the fact that for several years, the State seems like it's always waiting for the next riot. This has been going on for decades unending and no Government wants to bring lasting peace

PoliticsRe: 24-Hour Curfew Declared On Kaduna Metropolis And Environs by jedisco(m):
It's confirmed. There is chaos all over Kaduna.
It's linked to the killings which took place in Kasuwa Magani on a very busy market day (the market is a very busy village market not too far from the central town which has had similar issues but to a lesser scale in the recent past)

How could the Government and police try to cover the deaths. First, they reported no casualties, later only two then only yesterday
they reported 55. When I myself saw over 70 dead bodies which were deposited in one mortuary alone not to talk of other big hospitals in the state whose mortuaries had been filled up. Worse still, two more consignments of more bodies were still on the way to that center as other centers had stopped accepting bodies. That's aside how many more still in the bush and bodies which had been claimed.

How can well over 400 people be killed in a market on a market day not by guns but cutlasses and matchets in a move which was obviously preplanned and the security agencies couldn't act on intelligence to forestall it or nip it in the bud? Then the next day, a prominent traditional ruler is waylayed and kidnapped. The thing they could do is a declaration of a curfew after casualties were well into the hundreds
The annoying thing is that almost all the bodies were agile young men. Also all were mutilated and cut absurdly with matchets like they were animals. It was something I had never seen before in my life. A gory sight.

In all these, it was rumoured that the police stood bye and watched the killings which were obviously preplanned until the villagers gathered to protect themselves, that was when they stepped in. Then they now come to deny the deaths.
Left to me, the market should be closed for the time being.

The issue is that this started towards the evening. From experience of similar occurrences, no one can predict what would happen at night. That's when most killings take place. More so, Kaduna town has too many hot zones and it's difficult to bring calm once it has escalated. For now, the curfew has not been fully effected and people are still moving though carefully.
It's by tomorrow that the security agencies may really control the issue

It's going down. The town was already tensed on Friday as people suspected this might happen. Youths who had seen the bodies or heard of the scale of the massacre were already getting restive. I had to limit my movement on Friday. The deaths in Kaduna Magani should have been well over 500

Greetings on your contributions here.

Please, I have a Honda Accord 2003. The steering has a little clearance and the steering rack has been leaking oil for quite a while now so I usually top it up ftom yime to time. Last week, I bought ABRO oil to top up. Today, I noticed the steering started getting stiff. I took it to my mechanic who checked and said the power steering pump wasn't working well and needs to be changed or repaired. He also advised I change or repair the rack too.

Pls do you think I can use it for a while if I repair it or is it better I just go ahead and buy a new one? Also, I'm thinking it may be due to the new oil because I can't remember using this oil with it before

Fast forward to Sunday Afternoon we chatted and she said she was a bit bored so I invited her over. I picked her up half way at Opebi and we drove to my crib after a brief stop over at Chicken republic for takeaway entertainment.

We got to the crib and after eating and while watching DSTV i made a move and she said it was early but was moaning and we Fu.cked two rounds then I dropped her off at Ikeja with some little transport money 2k. I never asked her out or told her i needed a GF.
