You are not too bright, are you?
Actually, you're the slow one. The fact you can't make a distinction between regime and people proves that abundantly.

I still don't get the reason for the 8 you Muslims have towards America. angry
Funny enough, China nor send una religion.
It's one of the wonders of the modern world. Funny enough, they'd grab an American visa with both hands - maybe to hopefully work from within to turn the country into Sudan or Afghanistan.

Most Countries are only allies to US to avoid getting bullied. The United States has no true Friend.
They have made so many foes/adversaries because of thier reckless foreign policy of invading weaker sovereign Nations at will.
It's not about religion.
Are Cubans, Venezuelans, Vietnamese etc Muslims??
You didn't cite a single country here where people actually hate the US.

Their common sense ought to tell them to accord them with respect

I was at the ATM queue yesterday and military personnel are allowed to withdraw without standing on queue

It doesn't take anything away from us
Good you did that. But it was a privilege not a right. This is a campus - and everyone's temper was up due to the long queue to get naira. Should soldiers turn into beasts beasts for not being allowed to beat the queue?

Those students are ill mannered from resisting a uniform personnel using ATM

Do they expect him/her to queue?

They lack moral
Soldiers/uniformed people don't queue (to use ATM)?

Not good enough. Soldiers who attempted to jump ATM queue and later descended on civilians ought to face disciplinary actions.

Soldiers behaving like street thugs is why Nigerians don't respect soldiers.

Lol. You think POS owners are the problem? First, most of them don't have cash. The ones that have paid dearly to get it and are only giving it out at small profits. You can blame the bank officials involved in racketeering but the scarcity brought about by the CBN/government is the reason for that.

People that have bought expensive fertilizer and fuel to grow Agric product are now at loss, many rural markets in the North where Cash and carry is the norm are grounded especially grains vegatables and animals no new notes no old notes on sight and all Agric commodity price will crash, who will then go to the farm if there is no profit?

APC will pay a very heavy price for this decision, Buhari will never try this during his Second Reelection period
Unfortunately, people are too short-sighted to reflect on these facts.

Parachoko:
Can you kindly explain how it will still stop vote buying?
"...with old money".

I'm concerned about the suffering this has brought upon ordinary Nigerians, not vote buying. I think the CBN should focus on monetary policy - as it affects the ECONOMY - and leave stopping vote buying to the DSS and police to handle.

No, I don't think changing money will stop vote buying. I only mentioned that tangentially for the benefit of Emefiele and those who're concerned about it.
Phones › Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by JuanDeDios: 2:34pm On Jan 31, 2023
myspace:
Unreliable internet has always been an issue for me in Lagos. The best Internet Service Providers use Fibre Optics but have very limited coverage areas. So when I heard Starlink would be rolling out their Low Orbit internet service in Africa, It Immediately piqued my Interest.

I made a preorder for the service in May of 2021 with a refundable deposit of $99. I did this due to the projected rollout of the service by the end of 2021. I did not get any update from Starlink until early december of 2022. I was told to pay up a balance of $501 so my exquipment would be shipped.

8 days after making full payment, my Starlink Equipment was delivered to me by DHL. It is a plug and play device that is easy to install by following very simple steps on the manual. I mounted the dish on my compound, at a postion with good sky visibility and the device connected to an available Satellite within a few minutes.

My Internet experience is now the best I have ever had it, here in Nigeria.

Total cost of Equipment $600
Monthly Subscription for Unlimited Internet $43


God Bless Elon Musk
God Bless SpaceX/Starlink
God Bless Nigeria

Politicians will be be happy with this
This will actually assure traders they can continue to accept the old notes till the deadline. It will also assure rural dwellers who haven't been able to pay in their money. It still prevents politicians from being to buy votes with old money. Win-win.

All that's remaining now is to increase supply of the new notes.

This statement from INEC sounds more like...APC got the data before we could manipulate it.

Does it take days/weeks to synchronize data? I thought it was supposed to be real time.

Folks don't let INEC insult your sensibilities. Any synchronization not done same day is scam!!!
Fair point. It'd be interesting to hear what the Appeal Court will say about this.
Romance › Re: Ugandan Court Orders Woman To Pay Ex-fiance Over Breach Of Marriage Promise by JuanDeDios: 2:49pm On Jan 30, 2023
advanceDNA:
Yes.....An ordinary BREACH OF A PROMISE TO MARRY is not a GROUND FOR A SUCCESSFUL LEGAL ACTION if there are no other conditions to follow....like evidence of fraud, or other damages that may rise if yhe partied are common law partners.....

. if i meet u last week monday and we have chemistry or what stupíd pple call love at first sight ...and propose last week monday and later this week monday I say i am not doing again...u think any judge will let the case go to trial because of just a breach of promise u have been claiming??...lol....

Of course anyone can sue....heck i can even sue u for passing in front of my house..
..the question is...will any judge let it go to trial for that very reason im suing you...

However....If there is a sprinkle of evidence, like threat to life or attempted robbery to argue about in court....then the judge can apply an addendum and let it go to trial
I'm not sure why you keep attaching "common law partners" to this. I'm talking of an ordinary PROMISE TO MARRY. Note I did not say the court will compel you to marry anyone but that damages may arise (e.g., "I declined you offer to study in the UK because he promised to marry you" OR "he wasted 3 years of my life during which I would have married other people"wink whether there is an element of fraud or not. Anyway, I think yours is NOT the correct legal position, but I can't pursue the argument further here right now.

U cant force one to do anything that is not in the constitution e.g tax payment

, no one owes anyine marriage...... like i said...the man isnt directly sueing her for not marrying him per se....he's sueing for deception when she could have walked away when she knew she's not interested...


The loop hole to exploit for sueing is the damages incurred because of the person's promise.....in fact if there is no proof of damage as a result of the promise or no eay to prove her motive was greed he wont even get anything.....

In this case the man got compensation for damages becos its easy to show proof of damages which is financial because women with their greediness will collect money from a man....


If u read the case well....she said she ddnt want the man from the start....it was her parents arrangement..but shes as adult so she could have walked away or told the guy.....so greed eas involved from the start

If she had a genuine reason for not marrying him, e.g..he beats her or he's violent, or his salary changed or lost his job....the man wont get a dime
This is what I said: BREACH OF A PROMISE TO MARRY IS GROUND FOR A SUCCESSFUL LEGAL ACTION UNDER THE COMMON LAW (which operates in Uganda and Nigeria).

From all you've written, I take it you DON'T agree with my assertion above. I'd like to ask: are you a lawyer?

You Are bringing something else into it...dating and comonnlaw partner are not the same......common law partner breach is enforceable after living with someone continuously or off and on for two years and latter decide to walk way.....
A PROMISE TO MARRY is sufficient to give rise to a court action under the common law - you don't have to be common law partners. From the story, I believe the issue is a promise to marry - I didn't bring it in. If she had broken it off for a good reason (e.g., he is a thief or he's a rapist), no restitution order would have been made.

Its not the marriage proposal that law biding or a sueable offence
its extortion under the pretence of i will marry u.....she should pay for the financial damages done to the man for playing him....its a simple and fair judgement
Actually, it's the marriage proposal. You can sue in common law if it's broken off without a good reason. If the court finds in your favour, it is that based on that finding that the court will award you damages either to recover what you lost or your time that was wasted.

Since when did a marriage proposal become law binding? It wasn't even written and signed or anything, just verbal something

If she pay make I hear, unless it's a banana Republic over there
ijustdey:
Reports, however, said it was not certain if Kyarikunda will appeal against the judgment as verdict was flawed because an engagement, unlike a marriage, should not be legally binding.

Under the common law, a promise to marry can give rise to a successful legal action. Always has. The judgement is sound.

First, you can't hoard and sell an item that is readily available. Hoarding is always an outcome of scarcity. Second, this doesn't happen without the connivance of bank officials - I hope they get arrested too.
