Finstar:oga you go just die for nothing,better no try am with o |
he's not a staff of the bank but that of NIMC |
now I believe that juju is real |
NafeesaAA:Hold ur leaders both past n present responsible,mind you buhari is the president of Nigeria n not d president of northern Nigeria |
freenortheast:Go jor, who's hating who?If not buhari with is actions,we talking about injustice here bro |
giftq:honestly i wonder why,you don't tell me 'Bleep me' to my face n expect me to be smiling n hailing you,I think they 're suffering from low self esteem too |
buhari stands as the worst president in Africa not only in Nigeria,he just can't pretend to show is hatred towards the south. |
fiizznation:fool shut up,if it was the other way round tell me u will feel ok with that,this is a big slap on the whole southern Nigeria.what a shame that some bastards here 're still supporting the bigot .. |
Dasherz:i concur lemme add mine,his sitting position too,i believe you don't gun urself n ur head remain up word like that |
Reference:exactly,this is all about interest . |
VERDA:word |
Mynd44:if by any means you 're trying to mock ekiti teachers you fail woefully,those guys 're really giving in there best for those kids |
truth is they 're all guilty here kachikwu- for crying wolf where there's non baru -for not following due process (not submitting those document to the acting president as of then) pmb- for signing those document after transferring power to the then acting president |
abescom:Buhari is far from been a good man bro,if he 've integrity he wont ve been signing documents after transferring presidential power to the then acting president osibanjo,that's an impeachable offence,what's worrisome in this whole scenario is that why would baru take those documents to London in the frst plc when we 've an acting president??he's either acting on the order of pmb or he did not regard osibanjo as anything as of then if so he should be sack n don't come here n b telling me that it was because he's d minister of petroleum because as a minister u ve no power to sign such magnitude contract alone. |
Evablizin:hehehehe |
Nollyvin:they should remove him ASAP o if not he's bound to make another mistake which myt cost nigeria |
fear day catch me o,today na today,naija don jam but we go overcome |
Deejaygold:no vex they don resolve am |
thunderbabs:yes |
Network is ok now |
mu2sa2:try downloading d recent app Gtworld on play store its more friendly |
[quote author=erenax post=61061831][/quote]bros fear God |
joinnow:this is just 2017 method of Yahoo Yahoo.means to attract people to add up that name,she won't depend anything from u but will promise to send u same,days later them wier wier crew will call u that ur goods 're ready but u need to clear them with certain amount If out of greed u send it that's all,be wise |
y do I feel this shit is a scam ,while gullible people will keep adding that name uncle wier wier will keep getting more money ..imagine some greedy people feeling they don jam maga n.a. clearance money be una way of donation to wier wier |
asuustrike2009:i bet to disagree hausas do |
Asidethetruth:i don't,can u kindly explain please |
Asidethetruth:lol there's nothing impossible about it,tho I know its won't be an easy task. |
grew up in the north n Hausa was made compulsory in jss level ,it was hell then but now I know d usefulness n advantage I get been able to speak Hausa n Yoruba,currently trying to learn igbo,this is a very good move if u ask me |
WrathOfHadez:let us worry about that,oga face ur tribe |
sarafa68:you 're welcome sir,thanks for banking with us. |
To those shouting hire,can you employ a thief to guide ur house ?? |
Here are three of North Korea's recent technical milestones in long-range missile technology which stand out and why they matter. 1. Firing almost vertically and reaching higher altitudes There are significant challenges to testing a long-range missile in a country that is too small to run test flights within its own border. Initially, North Korea's only option was to launch these flights over its neighbours. It did that in 1998 by test-firing the Taepodong-1 missile over mainland Japan, to instant international condemnation. Now, North Korea has started launching longer-range missiles in what is known as a "lofted trajectory", firing the missile almost vertically. This allows the missile to land a short horizontal distance from launch but travel a great distance overall. Higher altitudes are a strong indication of new, more powerful engines and a greater ability to carry a payload that distance. These launches enable Pyongyang to conduct realistic tests of longer-range missiles. They also allow engineers to gather data sent back from the test missile to better understand the challenges faced when a long-range warhead re-enters the Earth's atmosphere at hypersonic speeds, something that generates vast amounts of frictional heat. This is exactly what North Korea did when it tested the Hwasong-14 (Mars-14) on July 4. According to the US military's Pacific Command, or PACOM, which monitors these launches, it flew for 37 minutes, rising to a maximum altitude (known as an apogee) of nearly 2,800km, over seven times higher than the International Space Station which is in orbit only some 400km above the Earth. A steep, near-vertical launch allowed the missile to travel a distance that roughly simulated long-range flight by travelling higher than most missiles but splashing down only a short distance away into the Sea of Japan, limiting the diplomatic damage that would inevitably be caused by a random projectile flying through a neighbour's airspace. The ICBM, a clunky Cold War-era name for a long-range missile, is formally defined as one that can fly more than 5,500km. According to David Wright of the Union of Concerned Scientists, if the Hwasong-14 was fired under proper flight conditions, it could reach a target more than 6,700km away. This puts the missile firmly in the long-range or ICBM bracket, and means it could potentially hit the US base on the island of Guam as well as Alaska, although the naval base on Hawaii and the rest of the continental US are still out of reach.

Solid fuel means faster launches First tested by the North just over a decade, ago solid-fuelled missiles are faster to set up and easier to fire. Unlike liquid fuels, which take time to load and are extremely toxic and corrosive to handle, solid fuels are easier to maintain and are more stable. A crude analogy between the two is to liken solid-fuelled missiles to setting off gunpowder-filled fireworks rather than filling each one with liquid fuel every time you wanted to fire one. Solid fuel reduces launch times from hours to minutes. Reducing the time from when a missile battery is taken out into the open to be readied for a launch, and therefore is exposed to enemy observation, makes it far less likely to be discovered and destroyed. Using solid fuels also scales back on the additional vehicles needed to transport volatile and dangerous liquid fuels, making a missile battery smaller and harder to spot. As this fuel is more stable, it can also take a few knocks when moved around. If you are not automatically redirected, click here. 3. Toughening up missile batteries Fortifying a missile battery so it can travel anywhere on land rather than along North Korea's tiny road system - the country has 724km of paved and 24,830km of unpaved roads respectively - gives it more places to hide. North Korea has done this by ruggedising the missile transporter (formally called a transporter erector launcher or TEL). Tracks are used instead of wheels, allowing the heavy vehicles to cross rough ground off the road system, which would be monitored by an enemy trying to track down missile batteries. The thin-skinned missile is also sheathed in a canister so it survives bumpy off-road travel. These improvements came together in the successful February launch of the Pukguksong-2 (Polaris-2) medium-range missile. Analysts across the world quickly realised the test's importance as the combination of solid fuel, a ruggedised transporter and a protected weapon, meant a battery could potentially hide in forests, underneath cliff overhangs, under bridges - virtually anywhere - and launch within minutes from a cold start. What is next for North Korea's missile programme? Producing next-generation missiles that can reach the US will be key for North Korea. This will not be an easy feat given the trickier aspects of long-range flight. Designs must be able to withstand the stresses and incredible heat produced in missiles by re-entering the atmosphere. The challenges will come from improving the warhead and delivery system and coupling the two. North Korean scientists will struggle to extend the missiles' ranges while shrinking their still rudimentary nuclear devices so theý are light enough to be carried by the missile to the target. Then there is the quest for accuracy, if the missiles are to have any military use. North Korea has bragged that its latest batch of missile tests were extremely accurate. It is still vague how this accuracy is being assessed given that North Korea does not have a network of satellites able to guide distant warheads to their targets, relying on the projectiles' much less accurate inertial guidance system. This electronic system is used in older missiles such as the Scud. It works on the principle of the missile using internally measured basic data on its speed, direction, and so on, to try to roughly assess where it ended up rather than being told where it was exactly by, say, the Global Positioning System (GPS). If the sharp tempo of tests doesn't abate, North Korea is likely to see substantial improvements in its missile programme. Kim Jong-un seems determined to "frequently send big and small 'gift packages' to the Yankees", as he instructed scientists after the July 4 test of the first ICBM, according to the country's state media KCNA.
