Lazy Nigerian youth, work as farmers?

They rather go to America to work as security men, so they pose for instagram at least once a week.

One idiot said "A western prison is better than Nigeria". I wonder what c-murder's face will look like when he hears the crap.

Even snakes and dogs' (animals) lives in the US are far better than the lives of the ordinary Nigerian citizens.

Awaja:
Religion is slowly intertwining with politics,upcoming politicians beware.

Right from the day of Adam and Eve, religion and politics were interdependent and interwoven. Even the ancient Roman Catholic was never separated from Italian politics.

XXLDICK:
This is bad.

voting is not compulsory

religion should interfere with politics and vice versa. one thing I love about America is that religious institutions aren't allowed to interfere with politics

That's the orientation Islam gives Muslims. In fact,Islam forbids Muslims to vote for non Muslims. So if Christians are given such a political education and reorientation its not bad as well. Christians are always insensitive to political issues, and that's why we are having this political instability in Nigeria. Now its operation show your voter's card.

Armed robbery is bad but jungle justice should be discouraged.

A thread on why PREPAID METER being distributed TO ALL may never be achieved in Nigeria.
After the Nigerian Police, Nigerian Electricity distribution companies are next on the list when it comes to corruption. This has been in existence from time immemorial, just like barracks, many government have come and gone but the deep rooted corruption in the system remains
In April 2016, I moved in to my current apartment. The apartment was still connected to an old meter and there was an outstanding payment of about N385,000.00 to be paid.

This wasn't revealed to me before I made payment for the rent, as usual (that's how they all do)
This became a worry and an absolute headache.

I asked the landlord why it was so and she made me understand that the apartment was not in use for 5years.

I asked how come it wasn't reported to NEPA so they'd stop the billing, she gave me a copy of the letter she wrote to them
So I took the matter up, wrote several mails to Eko electricity company and the matter was on for 11months, note that in the space of this 11 months, I never got a monthly bill lesser than 24,000.00

You want to ask if I have a factory in my apartment? No I don't.
So it extended from wanting the company to zerorize the ridiculous outstanding balance in the billing account to fighting and contesting the outrageous billing system which do not in any way represent my true electricity consumption and wanting a Prepaid Meter

The battle began.
After several exchange of mails betweens myself and Eko Electric and no solution was forthcoming, I moved the matter to NERC, the regulatory body for all electricity distribution companies in Nigeria.

I filed a petition against Ekedp and the undertaking in charge of my area.
Lo and behold, after three days from the petition submission to NERC, I got a call from the marketing manager for my area pleading for me to make myself available to allow them come to my house and take inventory of the electrical appliances I use.

NERC is working yeah? Right.
A staff of the Ekedp came to take the inventory and at the end of the computations, we calculated and multiplied each appliance by the estimated units they consume per day and multiplied by 31days.

Recall I said I never got a bill less than 24k in a month?
Then we arrived at a figure that even the Eko electric staff who came to take the inventory opened his mouth and couldn't close it.

What I should be billed based on having 24hour light per day(which is not even possible) in 31 days was 4,800.00

I almost ran mad.
I took a copy of the report, scanned it and attached it to my next petition to NERC.

At this point, the marketing manager attached to my undertaking had started calling and begging me to stop the petitions.

That they could all get sacked if matters gets escalated further.
Then in September 2017, after all the troubles and how I never got tired if pursuing the issue, I got a mail from Eko electricity to come with some required documents in order to fill a form for a PREPAID METER.

I went there and did as they requested

At Last.
On 27 November 2017, I was on leave.
I was at my gate then this Alfa looking guy was parading and trying to see house number on the fence. My instinct told me to ask if he was asking for Ayo, then he said yes

He was the prepaid meter installer, he was with my new prepaid meter
I also recall that before the whole issue started, I was discouraged severally that I can never be given prepaid meter due to the outstanding balance on the billing account, I paid no mind to all the people that said that and went ahead with my case.
I got the Prepaid meter for FREE. After a week, bill was brought and boom, outstanding balance has been cleared from 385,000.00 to zero balance.

How did I achieve this?
I mean I didn't pay a dime to anyone and I never for once bribed my way in all my dealings.
I achieved this simply because;

1. I knew my right.
2. I wouldn't settle for mediocrity
3. I never stopped pushing even after several months and it seemed unachievable
4. I was ready to take the matter up anywhere
5. I was informed.
Now imagine how many people are out there who don't even know how to go about such tedious and draining process.

I learnt that a lot of people even paid as much as 40k to get the prepaid meter. Something that's supposed to be free.
Since the prepaid meter was installed in November 27 2017, I have not exhausted the 303 units that came with it which is calculated to be 7,200.00

And I still have 140units left to use.

That's over four (4) months now
Do you now see why these people will never allow dream of every homes having a prepaid meter become a reality?

Because such development will block all holes where the electricity distribution corrupt members of staff perpetrate their fraudulent activities and corruption from.
They know that they will be forced to give light more in order to generate revenue and will not be able to charge people outrageously as they are currently doing and remitting the proceeds of their criminal act to their pockets.

Stand up and Fight for what is your right.
Prepaid meter is your right, fight for it to the latter.

If you believe that your monthly electricity bill do not represent your consumption, make a case.

If you're in Lagos, Ikeja Electricity company and Eko electricity company are there for you.

If they fail, involve NERC.
That will be all, for now.

Nice

adekhingz:
Your sentiments won't let you reason properly, and I won't blame you for that. IN BOTH situation, both were FORCED to act against their will. And both acted in their religious interest. Other girls were set free, but Leah wasn't because she refused to wear Hijab and denounce her religion. At the call to bar, Other girls were allowed to enter the hall, but Firdaus wasn't because she refused to take off her Hijab against her religious teaching. The NBA is a NOT terrorist institution, but that CHRISTIAN TERRORIST woman who refused Firdaus' entry into the hall is no better than the so called BOKO-HARAM sect. If it were to be that their religion places premium on observing the ethics of "covering the hair" as Islam does; if not for her hate for
Islam; if she were not a TERRORIST, she would have listened to her colleagues and allowed the poor girl enter for her call to bar.

U are a GOAT

I don't troll on Ladies...


Take off before i change my mind

You really need to work on your written English.

ALVA001:
Continue to tell that to your self.
Everyone has a right to belief whatever they belief. Deal with it.

Your use of grammar says it all. You are inhuman.

Ayam speechless.

But wait o.... How is it a crime? Even though its a crime... Who committed the crime? Is it Kiss Daniel or the company who pirated the LV? Ayam not understanding.

babytoun:
Even iwobi would struggle to get a starting spot in some smaller epl teams

But not Bournemouth. I am not even an iwobi's fan but ibe is not better than him.

babytoun:
first he is very strong in possession. can't be bullied like iwobi , can shoot accurately with both legs but most importantly he is an assist king ...can always give a final killer pass to the top striker

He doesn't even get regular playing time at Bournemouth and you are here selling him to us? That guy can only run past the opposition goal post that's all....

pelezico:
Played football with his dad and knew his mum too. His dad's Igbo but gave his son a Yoruba name. I thought I heard he was selected to play for England today.

How is ibe a Yoruba name?

PaChukwudi44:
soldiers are everywhere during "peace" meeting but this same soldiers are no where to be found when the fulanis attack.God will surely punish Buhari

And they were no where to be found when boko haram came to drop off the DAPCHI girls.

Doing my laundering myself is more expensive so I rather give them out to a dry cleaner.

DrRasheed:
And some dimwits are packing their hard end monies to depart there....


Nigeria forever...

Is naija better? Our police here is even worst....

Yusman316:
None of what u mentioned started with this government, so what is ur point?

Goat.... They they were inherited by the present government? Are you satisfied with my answer now?

What about Dapchi girls? Were they also kidnapped during GEJ's administration too? So in your mind, there is no corruption in public places in this APC administration? So where are the jobs? In fact I can't waste my energy on you.

MORNDEW:
See them, the illiterates am talking about. No level of comprehension, have no clue of any headlines, just rush to a post to comment out of sense. And fellow illiterates will like it. What has these got to do with the topic?

You that is literate, just listen to your sick brain. 'What has these got to do with the topic?' is a wrong English. The correct one is 'what has this'.

DPS/NL invites you for an interview for an opportunity to work with us. T/D/V: Tue 13/3/18 at AQ 15 Daura Road, Opp Yabi Plaza, Magajin Garki, Kaduna: Ref:DPSNL28.
I can't remember applying for such job. Don't even know the name of such company.

John8587:
You know, it's hard to make you fools understand. Just like some Christians are there shooting porn and having parties that i know are surely not promoted by the holy bible yet we(muslims) don't condemn all Christians but the moment one muslim did something wrong, y'all suckers will be wailing and generalise the concept.

Nicki Minaj is a Christian yet i don't think any good Christian woman will want to be like her. She made her choice and that's it. May you find sense in this weekend.

Who told you Nicki Minaj is a Christian? Don't even use that as a yardstick to defend the indefensible. Hope you know DJ Khalid is a Muslim? Let me tell you Islamic laws are for the poor and wretched Muslims.

christejames:
lol!

Would love to hear from you then. Just give me a PM... I can't wait to be convinced.

OK then. Sent you an email...

Spoiled children

Go and learn how to write in English language before you hate on people. Its "spoilt' not 'spoiled'

Why I have made up my mind to buy BLUBOO DUAL its because it has everything I need in a smart phone.
Finger print scanner, 4G, 2GB RAM, OTG, LED notification light and the cameras are top notch. And the battery which is 3000MAH is enough for daily usage.

christejames:
Nice submission but I would only fault where you said Buhari is undefeatable hinging it on the votes from Gombe but I would like you to know that he is a member of one of the major political parties in the continent that just got rejuvenated coupled with the abysmal performance of the ruling party, you still think majority of Nigerians will repeat the same mistake they made in 2015?

This PDP currently is for the youths.

Hmmmmm...... I wish we could talk this over the telephone. I am so lazy on the keyboard. I have so many reasons for saying that. Thank you.

christejames:
Not really here as a visitor, been here close to a year now and have been working with the state's development board so I know what I'm saying. San Hussein is even at the downtown area of the City and I don't classify that area as classy or pristine but there are a whole lot of development in that state for a state as young as that and also in the north, it speaks a lot about the quality of leadership which Dankwanbo wields.

Dakwambo consolidated on what Goje started and he has out performed Goje.
Gombe people don't like Dakwambo for reasons best known to them. But we that are strangers in Gombe sing Dakwambo's praise because the man is a good administrator. But I don't see Dakwambo defeating Buhari come 2019 because only Gombe votes can not give Dakwambo the presidential ticket.

kelvinjeremiah:
Nope

Thank you. I am not buying again.
