Dear God, thank you for Nigeria. You who created the earth from a comatose state, can create and recreate Nigeria again...please work in and through Buhari and Osinbajo to make Nigeria a paradise. Grant them grace, will, the right people and resources to achieve this. They won't fail, fall nor falter. They will do much more than we expected. They will indeed fight corruption, transform our Energy sector, create jobs, strengthen education, stimulate Education, alleviate poverty,etc. During their reign, there shall be peace, unity, prosperity, comfort and righteousness in this Land. Please be their very present help every time. When they have done eight years, may we beg them to do another four. This and many more we ask in Jesus Name...Amen!
Go for Access Bank. Although I detest their work culture, banking these days is about moving and getting higher levels. For all you know, you may not be promoted in GT even after 3yrs...that's banking for you.
christopher123: Too much of everything is just bad this include education and certificates, this is one reason that too much educated people get employed and less educated people employ them. This is the trend in the world and it can never change. The over educated man will analyse analyse, peruse and criticise something before an action is take. But the less educated man will fold his sleeves gives it a trial, that is why today we have the COSCHARIS,DANGOTES, FACEBOOK, JOBS, ETC these dudes have little education and they employ these so called book worm and they blow grammer.
That is by the way, why am taking time to tackle this, I see people saying this is a nice article I just laugh..What is nice about this article and the writer. To me he is just swriting bunkum and bullshit I must be frank. What is so special about refining crude oil. It is simple elemnatary chemistry. For thos of us that studied chemistry and did practicval. I mean those that went to good schools and I appreciate the school I attended in imo state with the best lab. That is by the way the principle of refining oil is called fractional distillation and the experiment is simple not rocket science and I wonder why Nigeria can’t build packets of small refineries with small capacities for each state. I wonder how Nigeria won’t allow individuals to fabricate refineries with small capacities to service state. Some person is making a presentation with diagram For heaven sake Biafra forces drilled and refined their oil under war conditions and these refineries were a mobile and dismountable ones and they powered their aircrafts with that and their tanks so what is even special about refining this crude, ordinary fractional distillation. Go to creeks and see how local illiterates are refining oil with drum and for those of us that is impressed with this grammar let me break it down for you how fractional distillation works …..Fractional distillation is the separation of a mixture into its component parts, or fractions, such as in separating chemical compounds by their boiling point by heating them to a temperature at which one or more fractions of the compound will vaporize. Funny enough crude oil refining is even simple distillation and I keep asking how and why we cant just think. The core refining process is simple distillation . Because crude oil is made up of a mixture of hydrocarbons, this first and basic refining process is aimed at separating the crude oil into its "fractions," the broad categories of its component hydrocarbons. Crude oil is heated and put into a still—a distillation column—and different products boil off and can be recovered at different temperatures. The lighter products—liquid petroleum gases (LPG), naphtha, and so-called "straight run" gasoline—are recovered at the lowest temperatures. Middle distillates—jet fuel, kerosene, distillates (such as home heating oil and diesel fuel)—come next. Finally, the heaviest products (residuum or residual fuel oil) are recovered, sometimes at temperatures over 1000 degrees F. The simplest refineries stop at this point. Other refineries reprocess the heavier fractions into lighter products to maximize the output of the most desirable products. Just know that the cabals or bunch of mudaphukers will paint the picture that refining crude is just a sophisticated thing but igbos have done that ages and Nigerian can grasp it, the reason why refinaries wont work is simple, Nigerian intellectual laziness and dirty tendencies and also inability to think out of the box and finally we have been ruled by bunch of donkeys in the name of rulers and leaders. What is in refining oil. Get a container set it heat and at a particular temperature PMS comes out and a particular temperature DPK and other products come out. If they cant get it right they should consult the Biafrans if they are proud to do this they should consult the creeks boys in Bayelsa, I shouldn’t be teaching you chemistry but the truth must be told, kabals wont allow the refinery to work…SIMPLE
BREAK DOWN OF SIMPLE REFINARY The most important refinery product is motor gasoline, a blend of hydrocarbons with boiling ranges from ambient temperatures to about 400° F. The important qualities for gasoline are octane number (antiknock), volatility (starting and vapor lock), and vapor pressure (environmental control). Additives are often used to enhance performance and provide protection against oxidation and rust formation.
Kerosene is a refined middle-distillate petroleum product that finds considerable use as a jet fuel and around the world in cooking and space heating. When used as a jet fuel, some of the critical qualities are freeze point, flash point, and smoke point. Commercial jet fuel has a boiling range of about 375°-525° F, and military jet fuel 130°-550° F. Kerosene, with less-critical specifications, is used for lighting, heating, solvents, and blending into diesel fuel.
Liquified petroleum gas (LPG) consists principally of propane and butane and is produced for use as fuel and is an intermediate material in the manufacture of petrochemicals. The important specifications for proper performance include vapor pressure and control of contaminants.
Distillate fuels such as diesel fuels and domestic heating oils have boiling ranges of about 400°-700° F. The desirable qualities required for distillate fuels include controlled flash and pour points, clean burning, no deposit formation in storage tanks, and a proper diesel fuel cetane rating for good starting and combustion.
Residual fuels are heavier oils, known as No. 5 and No. 6 fuel oils, that remain after the distillate fuel oils and lighter hydrocarbons are distilled away in refinery operations. Many marine vessels, power plants, commercial buildings and industrial facilities use residual fuels or combinations of residual and distillate fuels for heating and processing. The two most critical specifications of residual fuels are viscosity and low sulfur content for environmental control.
A variety of solvents, whose boiling points and hydrocarbon composition are closely controlled, are produced in refineries. These include benzene, toluene, and xylene.
Petrochemicals are products derived from crude oil refining, such as ethylene, propylene, butylene, and isobutylene, that are primarily intended for use as chemical feedstocks in the production of plastics, synthetic fibers, synthetic rubbers, and other products.
Lubricants are produced in special refining processes. Additives such as demulsifiers, antioxidants, and viscosity improvers are blended into the base stocks to provide the characteristics required for motor oils, industrial greases, lubricants, and cutting oils. The most critical quality for lubricating-oil base stock is a high viscosity index, which provides for greater consistency under varying temperatures.
Coke is a residue high in carbon content and low in hydrogen that is the final product of thermal decomposition in the condensation process in cracking. It is almost pure carbon with a variety of uses from electrodes to charcoal briquets.
Asphalt is dark brown-to-black cement-like material obtained by petroleum processing and containing bitumens as the predominant component. It used primarily for road construction and roofing materials, and thus must be inert to most chemicals and weather conditions.
One of the most insightful, intelligent and encouraging posts I've ever come across on Nairaland. Thank you.
emusmith: If you're trying to advance the kingdom of God in some capacity, you can bet you will come up spiritual attacks.
Many people are facing spiritual struggles as they attempt to advance in the things of God. One of the primary tricks of the enemy is to get a person deceived and not realizing the depth of what is taking place in their lives.
Oftentimes people assume that the struggle they are facing is just a natural battle yet just beneath the surface there is something far more complex taking place. They are under a spiritual attack!
What Is A Spiritual Attack? A spiritual attack is a series of events coordinated by the demonic realm in order to abort promises, shipwreck faith, oppress a believer and stall out destiny.
Paul reminds us: "lest Satan should take advantage of us. For we are not ignorant of his devices" (2 Cor. 2:11)
The Bible tells us that the devil has various plots and schemes he uses against human beings. Many people wrongly assume that Satan is stupid, yet he has been studying the thoughts, actions and behavior of humanity since the beginning of time. He knows how to tempt people.
His minions are masters at pushing the right buttons at the right time! We must not be ignorant to the strategies of the enemy. We can not live our lives with our spiritual eyes shut. We must walk in the spirit and be aware of what is taking place around us.
How can you identify a spiritual attack? Here are eight symptoms of an attack:
1. Lack of spiritual passion.
The enemy comes to steal your tenacity for the things of God. Suddenly your prayer life seems stalled. Your commitment is tested and you can't seem to push though. You feel as though you are just going through the motions.
2. Extreme frustration.
During a spiritual attack the enemy uses a variety of circumstances to oppress the mind and bring great frustration. A person who is under siege finds themselves on edge and anxious.
3. Confusion about purpose.
During a spiritual attack there is often great confusion about spiritual direction. This is one of the chief goals of an attack, to get a believer out of destiny. That wrong move begins by bringing confusion.
4. Lack of peace.
The enemy bombards the mind with various thoughts and ongoing temptation in order to rob peace. The mind becomes irritated and exhausted. The enemy does all that he can to bring mental fatigue.
5. Unusually sluggish and tired.
A lack of energy and vitality are often the result of an extended attack. Certainly these issues can occur with natural problems, lack of sleep or health battles. In this case though, the root cause is the effect of prolonged spiritual battles.
6. Strong urge to quit assignment.
Every believer is born with unique purpose. As God created a purpose for each believer, He also gave unique gifts and grace to fulfill that plan. When a person is living in the high calling, they will prosper in various areas: They will receive financial blessing by excelling in the area that God has called them to. They will feel satisfied and fulfilled living out their destiny.
Simply put, the enemy hates when a believer is boldly walking out their purpose and plan. He does all that he can to MOVE the Christian away from their destiny. During an attack he will overwhelm them with thoughts and desires to give up and abandon their post! This is one of his greatest purposes behind spiritual attacks.
7. Drawn back towards old bondages.
In a long spiritual battle a person is often pulled back towards negative cycles that they broke free from. The enemy wants to enslave them once again in the same old bondages. If he can discourage them bad enough to give into sin that they were free from then he can loose shame and condemnation upon them causing them to spiral down into deeper defeat.
8. Questioning direction and call that was one so clear.
As the enemy attacks the life of a believer he begins to give them reasons to give up on the very thing that God called them to. This is one of his master tools. He releases confusion, shame, intimidation and a variety of vile schemes to create a cloud of uncertainty. Again, his ultimate goal is to get a believer off the pathway of destiny, A person who is under attack may find themselves deeply questioning the road that they are traveling. Usually they begin to reexamine decisions that were once crystal clear.
Oftentimes a person in the midst of an attack will question prophetic words, spiritual breakthroughs and significant experiences that they had. This is a step towards moving backwards in the Spirit.
3 KEYS TO FREEDOM
Here the are three keys to your freedom:
1. Break it with faith: You've got to believe inside you that you can be free from that attack.
2. Break it with prayer: Device a prayer scheme. Get a prayer partner. Go to a praying church.
3. Break it with resistance. Submitting yourself to God and keeping that "weak spot" in perspective is the best way to resist it. If immorality is your problem, you shouldn't be alone with a girl in a room.
The enemy loves to remain hidden. He deceives and tries to fly under the radar but the Lord is shining His powerful light upon the attacks! Spiritual eyes are being opened and freedom is coming forth. Exercise your authority and break the attack today!

Thank you for your post...it set me on fire tonight...God bless you.
Firefire: [size=18pt]I’ll make Naira equal in value to dollar, says Buhari [/size]
Owerri – The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday said he would ensure that the Naira was equal to the dollar in value, if voted into office. Buhari stated this during the South-East presidential rally of the party at Dan Anyima Stadium, Owerri. “It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar; this does not speak well for the nation’s economy,’’ he said. He urged the people to vote for APC, noting that he would ensure that corruption was tackled headlong if elected. Earlier, Gov Rochas Okorocha had urged APC supporters to vote for the party’s candidates at all levels, noting that a vote for Buhari without support to others at the state would amount to nothing. Okorocha said Buhari would address the problem of electricity, bring back the kidnapped Chibok girls and promote industrial growth. He said that Buhari was loved by the people in the region and urged them to elect him and other APC candidates during the March 28 and April 11 general elections. Former governor of Anambra, Mr Chinwoke Mbadinuju and former Minister of Education, Chinwe Obaji, were formally welcomed to the APC at the rally. The rally was attended by APC supporters from Abia, Ebonyi, Anambra, Enugu and Imo. (NAN) -
Please try not to waste my MB again. I even thought I would see Buhari saying it in your appended videos...only oyinbo just dey read vanguard inside the video. Be guided!
Did they say don't panic in 2011? Where did Jonathan lose the massive support he had in 2011? This is what you get when you decide ignore the OBJ and Tinubu factor. He will only win in the SS, SE and maybe 2 states in North Central because of people like Abati. Jonathan is likely making history as Nigeria's 1st incumbent president to lose.
Nna mhen, in my polling booth in Itire-Ikate, Surulere, Lagos, booth 047 or so. .Presidential - APC:98, PDP:112. Senate: APC:89, PDP: 122. HofReps: APC:92, PDP: 114...Dem no want change Anyways our APC chairman here is hated. The guy didn't perform and he's going for House of Reps.
Family House is a very good place to stay...I lived there and was a Papa. But please, if you are in courtship, don't stay there! And let me add, I got my current job through the family house.
People saying number 7, number 8. You want us to always scroll back to the post? Imagine us being on the 4th page? Haba nau. Ok now for me, number 39 got me thinking...its so funny
Vikkie14: Again? He don start again. Dix how the whole saga started-- unguilded utterances. It makes a lot of difference. The kind "opposition" we have here is terrible. I think opposition is to speak out and point in the right direction when the incumbent is going astray but our own is to say "BH is a result of bad governance", "Treat BH with kid gloves", "BH should be given amnesty like Mend" and "we'll make the country ungovernable for them". I wonder now if there's not a correlation btw Mend and BH. Dont compare Nigeria with the West, Their own "Opposition party(s)" support their military and government of the day, you wont find derogatory,instigating comments against their Military or President. What kind opposition is APC playing here!!!
Bidemi Ayeni wrote: ONE HONEST LEADER. How can a former Head of State who earns 300 million Naira per annum, say he has no N27 Million to buy presidential nomination form? A very pertinent question, I must say. And as someone who believes in knowing the truth before acting, I took my enquiry to the Nigerian ministry of finance and this was the response I got: Yes, it is true, All heads of states collect on the average 23 million Naira every month, apart from General Muhammadu Buhari. He (General Buhari) objected to collecting most of the allowances,insisting they were bogus and therefore amount to corruption. He personally wrote a letter to the ministry to that effect. As a result he collected only N2.3M a month equivalent of 10% of what he is entitled, which he believes is his legitimate earnings!! Imagine how honest this man is!! May God give us the wisdom to accept reality. Please let's vote wisely, we need a leader that can fight corruption. Buhari is that leader.Investigation also has it on authority that he is the only one amongst past presidents who returns his car after a 4 year cycle for a replacement as required. Others get the new and keep the old.
kachiwhyte: In this day and age, the world over. What right does Goodluck Jonathan have to direct INEC? Especially in line with who & who is eligible to vote. His statement that he directed INEC, (note not advised INEC), leaves much to be desired. This is a clear indication of how much he mis understands the laws that grants INEC independence in carrying out its duties. INEC is an independent body, with full constitutional backing and unambiguous guidelines on how to carry out its functions. Goodluck Jonathan has no right what so ever to give INEC directives. The statement brings to bear the overwhelming influence that Goodluck Jonathan intends to wield in the on coming elections. Note also that such influences are the recipes for violence.
Does this not mean that he can also DIRECT inec to rig the elections? Nna na word you expose up here o.
Kai my people...we don't believe these promises because the current governtment hasn't delivered on its many promises. I don't understand...is it that you guys expect things to continue this way in this country for another four years? I may be wrong though, you guys have really benefitted from this administration and I haven't? Your life has improved government-wise and mine hasn't? My conscience can't just allow me vote for JEG. I don't see the current trend changing under this current government even if given another 50years. Abi na my brain and your brain e wan take rule this second term? Kai! Nigerians and, "as it was in the beginning, so shall it be, world without end".
Do not expect any igbo within or outside S.E to vote for buhari That's not possible
Igbos will vote jonatan come feb
Gej 2019 as sure as heaven
Compare your likes with the others in support of GMB. It shows you are on your own...and how dare you speak for us? This kind of reasoning is what has kept us where we are politically.
That was because the men had many wives. The mans room had to be free cos no one wife can dominate the bed. The man had a woman in his bed every night. The wives had their duty roaster and besides, those men had plenty kids you can imagine how it will be if all the women and kids lived under the same roof and the husband slept with all the women in the same bed every night To make life easy and avoid wahala, each wife was assigned her hut, where she and her kids will have freedom and privacy. No who took my salt? Who stole my meat? Who removed my soup from the fire and put her stupid pot? Who removed my wet clothes from the line? Mama mary go to the back its my turn to sleep on our husbands right hand side That was why. Those women had no choice. If they did, they would not have lived that life. Ask any woman from those days. Ask them why they did not leave, 90% of them will say...... leave to where? No escaping the obvious they had no choice o.
