The admission is either a mistake or the school is looking for students.

Dual camera?! Huawei did it, then HTC did it before Apple, so how come it's now Apple that Samsung is copying.

Etisalat did it 1st and without warning too, atleast MTN gave warning that it will commence tomorrow.

It's not the xposed, the person you gave it to installed a new probably updated ROM into your phone.

If you do, could you please give me a basic beginner tutorial? just something for me to start with.

Mark my words, by the end of this Buhari's four year tenure everyone would recognize him as a full blown tyrant.

I don't know how you use it so I can't tell you what could be causing you problems, but my best advice to you would be, download clean master app and use it to free up some RAM frequently.

This boy is so annoyingly childish..

Why did you quote him? he's looking for attention and you just gave it to him.

INTROVERT:

Sorry o, na joke i dey joke.

INTROVERT:
LOL... FTC ON 4 TOPICS IN A ROW. WHO E HELP. THIS THIEF TOO LIKE SUGAR O. IF THEN WAN PUNISH AM WELL. MAKE THEM MAKE AM DRINK ALL THOSE THINGS UNDER SIX HOURS MAKE HIN BELLE SWELL AND HIN YANTCH SCRATCH AM WELL.

you get serious problem

What about those of us who don't have interest in swallow? should I still call off the wedding?

DSS have the power to arrest anyone they suspect of wrong doing while the EFCC has the prosecuting power. Don't get it twisted.

Are you saying the police can't arrest a bribe giver?

Not if they have prior notice, police do not investigate financial crimes, that's the EFCC's job, this particular case involves gathering of evidence and intelligence before they could take action, which is what the EFCC is there for and they're also better equipped to handle it.

Instead the DSS raided people's homes in the middle of the night like militant forces.

amagunnerfan:
DSS is secret police for a reason for Christ sake. There is something called intelligence. So how did EFCC unearth all those millions in MRS English murderer's account? Black magic and not intelligence in your thinking right?

Don't get aggressive with me abeg, I no get power this evening.

Now, secret police or otherwise, it's still not their job to handle financial crimes, the way it works is, if they get wind of any financial crime taking place they hand it and any evidence over the EFCC, simple as that.

Also finding out how much someone has in their accounts is a far cry from finding out that not only does someone stash cash in their home, but also how much is in there without ever making visual or physical contact with this money.
That sounds more like magic to me.

You say there was $2m in his house, then you also say that you were denied entry into the house and the money was taken away from the house, you never laid hands or eyes on this money but you know it was there and how much it was? OK ooooo

Now, why is the DSS raiding peoples homes in case of financial crimes? isn't that the job of the EFCC? OK ooooo

That's not Jelly bean that's KitKat and if you're having performance problems with that phone then you're doing something wrong.

It's what I use too.

Go ahead with your update, but that you will lose root access if it's rooted.

It's called lite because it's a downgrade.
What's the anger about?

If he buys an expensive car you will complain, if he buys a fake cheap one you will still complain.

So no one should say anything about him? also SaharaReporters is a news outfit it's their job.

A SaharaReporters investigation into the latest ‘luxury’ car purchased by embattled Senator Dino Melaye has found that he is masquerading a cheap MG-TD replica car as an expensive Rolls Royce car purportedly worth N180 million. SaharaReporters confirmed that Mr. Melaye is pandering his cheap replica as a Rolls Royce after consulting several experts with deep knowledge of both Rolls Royce and MG-TD cars.

SaharaReporters learned that an associate of Mr. Melaye has been circulating a press release claiming that he “bought a classic Rolls Royce estimated at $400,000 (N180 million).” The same statement continued saying, “that the Rolls Royce is a rare collectible item that is not only scarce but very expensive.”

The press statement, now known to be totally misleading, erroneously claimed that “the Rolls Royce which is a 1923 model is 93 years old, and is used by only a few persons in a special grade.”

Example of what an actual 1924 Rolls Royce looks like

SaharaReporters contacted three antique car experts located in the United States to confirm details surrounding Mr. Melaye’s alleged luxury car. All three experts categorically stated that the car in the photos circulated by Mr. Melaye’s associate is not a Rolls Royce. All three experts also said that the car in the photographs is a British-made MG-TD, two of whom said it was a replica with parts from a Volkswagen Beetle.

One expert speaking to SaharaReporters, George Medynski, the owner of Tuxedo Moto Sport, formally M&G Vintage Auto, who has been specializing in maintenance and restoration of British vehicles for decades, viewed photos of Mr. Melaye’s vehicle and described it in precise detail.

He told SaharaReporters that Mr. Melaye’s car “was one of the worst replica MGs” he had seen. He observed that “you couldn’t get any cheaper, crappier and it is probably worth nowhere near $10,000 and probably cost between $4,000-$6,000.”

Mr. Medynski then added, “I am offered these lepers all the time.”

“It’s not a Rolls Royce and it’s not even a real MG-TD,” he stated emphatically. He also said that it was most certainly a replica of a 1953 MG-TD, totally different than the 1924 Rolls Royce make Mr. Melaye’s associate was stating.

Providing specific details of the car, he said, “look at the front-end picture. On the inside of both wheels you can see that’s a Volkswagen suspension from the old Beetles.”

He also said, during his evaluation of the images, “it’s absolutely worthless. The body is made of fiberglass, the gauges don’t look right, the gas tank, everything” is wrong compared to the original MG-TD.

These kinds of cars, just like the one Mr. Melaye is masquerading as a Rolls Royce, “were popular in the early 1970s [in the US] when you can take a Volkswagen Beetle and make it whatever you wanted,” whether it was a dune buggy or some other inexpensive car.

Mr. Medynski, who has been working on MG-TDs and other British cars for decades, described the British MG-TD as “having a coach built body [made from wood with metal folded around it]. It was probably the last kind of car to come out of England coach built.”

“They stopped making [MG] coach built cars in 1955 and MG went out of business in 1980,” he continued. “They made 30,000 MG-TDs and out of that 30,000 in the world a real nice one is probably worth $45,000-$60,000, the replica is worthless.”

It has also been noted that the hood ornament on Mr. Melaye’s fake car looks nothing like the ‘flying lady’ ornament indicative of Rolls Royce cars, including the 1924 make he is pandering.

SaharaReporters also consulted Hemmings, the leading online car collector marketplace where luxury and antique vehicles are regularly posted for sale, to assess prices for the MG-TD vehicles.

The most expensive MG-TD car available on Hemmings website was priced at $39,500. The average price for this year and make of car was under $10,000, according to a SaharaReporters query of the site.

Actual 1953 MG-TD

A source speaking to SaharaReporters on the condition of anonymity, who has intimate knowledge of Mr. Melaye’s assets, disclosed that the car circulated by Mr. Melaye’s associate is new to his fleet and has not been in his possession since 2014, as alleged in the statement.

This same source said they believed Mr. Melaye wants to mislead the Nigerian public, and especially his NASS colleagues, because he is an insecure man wanting to appear to be a more powerful than he is.

“Apart from the attention he wants from the public he also wants to attract women,” because of some of his insecurities, this source elaborated on why he would pretend his car is more opulent than it really is.

It will be recalled that Mr. Melaye has had longstanding problems with women, including his ex-wives, some of whom he physically abused, and threatened to impregnate Senator Remi Tinubu during a Senate meeting earlier this year.

SaharaReporters reached out to Mr. Melaye for comment on his supposed luxurious purchase but he did not respond to our correspondent's queries.

It's not funny, what is that dirty looking old man supposed to know about ICT?

There's so many young Nigerians that would be perfect fits for that position but no Nigerian leadership is for the old and connected alone.

The distance between Egypt and Israel is about 613 Km but it took Moses and the Israelites 40yrs to complete their journey. Possibly, each day they only walked 43 meters. I wish Moses was alive to explain this kind of laziness.
