I mean.. I have never owned a BMW nor a Benz but from what I see on the road, a BMW is fine fine and fast fast..

I saw a 2014 over-sharp Nigerian used BMW car going for 1.9 million.. 2014!!! Is the seller mad? He's defo not a scam but is he crazy

a 2014 Benzo costs 5 times that price Nigerian used or not!

I am pained..

Before I settled for my mumu all for everyone camry 2011, I had a BMW in mind.. na mechanic tell me say NO NO..

No tangible reason ooo but I con dey fear..

Weyrey fit never even own proper honda accord for him life.

Guy it's simple .

German engineers are better than Japanese engineers don't get it twisted. And their products are better. A BMW is definitely better than a camry.

The problem is that they are too precise. They design cars to be operated under certain very specific conditions. If you use the car as stated in the manual, the car will last for years. Once you deviate anything, if you use the wrong oil, wrong roads, the car will breakdown. That's the precise nature of Germans.

I read a news article about a customer that complained to a filter manufacturing company that their filter was defective. They investigated the water that the customer was filtering and found out it contained 2% KMnO4, instead of the 1% that was specified in the manual. They laughed the customer out of the building.

Japanese engineers on the other hand know that their customers are coconut head . Maybe because they are trying to gain dominance, but they are more likely to think about how the customer will use the product.

That's why for this UAR, Japanese cars are better.

Anyways...

Did you vote in your last LGA election?

Let them open a "fund my campaign" platform and if they are worthy, am sure Nigerians would support them.

Will YOU support them?

The clamour on having Peter Obi for president has set a benchmark most aspirants cant match...

There are many people based on track record that can turn Nigeria around. Donald Duke , Fashola (I dare say Osinbajo). However most of them don't have the financial backing to run and would have to have a godfather, which as you know spoils everything. Peter Obi is a godfather himself. Coupled with growing feeling that its time for an igbo presidency. Peter Obi happens to be at the right place at the right time.

I know someone has to be dropped, but the guy seems bright and is humble.

Am not going to collect your CV.



My boss said the second he spotted it, he stopped reading the essay. I took my time to finish the essay though, the guy is quite bright.



Recent ke? He has been on it.

I will report you to your boss

How I wish all this 600 useless journalists can be punished, tarnishing the image of this country and blackmail people names with there quack report

They didn't tarnish anything. They merely leaked documents and then individual news outlets like premium times wrote stories.

Op, I earn my income in country my business situates and pay taxes there. If I earn income in Nigeria, I pay taxes to FIRS. If my investment in UK makes profit, why should I pay double, one to UK and another to Nigeria? You are not learned enough forthe topic you embarked on

Beautiful response. One Heineken for you

festacman:
Peter Obi can now sleep. It is not looking completely a bad company. There is now a touch of holiness to the sh*t.

By the way, it is looking increasingly obvious that starting with Peter Obi was a hot agenda agending on Monday morning.

The Pandora papers include names like English PM, Carlo Ancelotti, Angel Di Maria, The King of Jordan etc. It's just who has an investment n tax free countries. It's not even journalism, its just a leak.

Churches should not be patronizing tax havens. Always give to Caesar what is Caesar's. Most tax havens are mammon worshipping entities

Very sensible and straightforward. Like this kind comment you go see e go reduce body heat, cool temper.

dizon:
The kind of politics we play in this country is satanic. People will just go out and manufacture all sorts of lies against someone just because of politics. I read the entire jargons they wrote about this man and I don't see any crime he committed in the entire long story. All I see is an attempt by desperate politicians to paint him bad.

I made a post yesterday that people don't read. Most times you see in nairaland a long post, and then some comments like 'I did not read the writeup' or 'who do they want to read this writeup?'. And that's how they mislead people. They will use a headline to make people draw conclusions and then explain the headline later in the article to cover themselves against litigation. If people would read more... and I'm not talking about understanding ooh. Forget understanding first. Just read!!!
Anyways, Whatever

It's sad that this won't make front page because the mods will deem it tribalistic. Forgetting that it actually happened ...smh. Let me still try my luck. Lalasticlala, Mynd44.
Secondly, Murtala Mohammed and Ibrahim Taiwo being killed is not Karma,justice was not served in anyway. They killed close to a thousand innocent people so I don't know why them losing their lives is Karma. Stop celebrating their deaths. Unless you're telling me that two lives are equal to a thousand? It's best to forgive and remember. FG can possibly look into reparations to the indigenes, but it won't happen in my lifetime. Its annoying when a single person (or two) carries out this kind of thing because no amount of 'justice' 'Karma' 'retribution' or whatever will truly be able to mend it. What is the price of a thousand lives?
Anyways, whatever.

Gbajure:
Wikipedia is NOT citable source pls and always updated an more info comes in. However, PT is part of the consortium that initiated this report and hence has first hand information.

But the Igbos are just another group of humans. A tribe on another level. They will believe anything so far it is about others.

Emefiele is destroying the exchange rate but not even a whimper from the usual loud mouths. But when Adeosun was in office, even monetary bad news are due to her incompetence. Biafra must just be granted .

Thanks for the info. But your second paragraph and downwards is off topic

Guys please oh. I can't say this loud enough. There is a subtle misinformation campaign going on. Nothing up there is a lie. But it is not a Pandora papers report. Please don't ignore this. It is not a Pandora papers report. Op should correct the title. This is a premium times article. Here is a list to everyone named in the Papers. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_named_in_the_Pandora_Papers

Don't be lazy. That's how misinformation spreads. Go and look at it. The scandal is about a separate set of laws that apply to rich people. Premiumtimes is being very dubious right now. They will start sneakily adding Pandora to every article to confer legitimacy (also knowing that people don't really know what the Pandora papers are all about). Note that they didn't say anywhere that it is from Pandora papers.
They know that people will read only the headline and skim. Don't be manipulated by headlines.
Read!!! You were taught how to in primary school.

Happy for Messi...

But Barca is just another Arsenal of Spain...

I still don't understand why Koeman sold Suarez citing that Suarez left because he wasn't willing to prove himself.. Like WTF does he have to prove when his records speak for him...

You want Messi to remain at the Club yet you keep letting go easily all his best friends on and off the field..

All these new armature coaches that are forming professional last last body go tell them.

Lampard, Koeman, Arteta, your days are all numbered..

You forgot Ole, are you a man u fan?

It’s a very dope phone, it’s just that it’s very worn maybe because he didn’t take care of it

I saw this on Twitter. It seems that people are slowly waking up. Even on reddit die hard Trumptards are beginning to question ‘the plan’. Well, ‘the plan‘ is to take their hard earned cash to use for the criminal lawsuits that are definitely working, so yeah - ‘the plan’ is working

This is a brilliant analogy, dude!

Sister op....you might have a hole in the heart

Anyway it might just be your unique problem


Like me I have this unique problem....
I tend to start sweating when am in car that is not running fast and not moving straight...then before you know it the tendency to vomit sets in...to make it worse if the smell of petrol in the car us much then forget it i can't control the vomit.....i will have to vomit

motion sickness?

How far Michelle? What you described is called Heatsroke or heat exhaustion sometimes. Sometimes it happens normally and sometimes it might be because of underlying cause. You have to see a doctor for this one, I don’t think you’ll find a definitive answer on Nairaland. It’s your health so don’t leave it to others ok?

Don’t let stereotypes and stories from people stop you from missing out on a potentially good thing. Live without fear. The best person I have ever met in my life was a brotherhood boy that I bullied in secondary school. He paid my wickedness with kindness in spite of all my bullying, even to the extent of giving me his own biro in exam hall,(no, not a spare, the one he was writing with). I didn’t even realize how awesome this dude was at the time, I realized how emotionally far ahead of me he was on reminiscing. That boy changed my life outlook, and his parents,(both of them are brotherhood) did a damn fine job.

It is easy to stay and point accusing fingers on these people. But we forget they are product of the society. They are our people. Scrapping them off is not the solution.
Most of them are ex convicts. They are not properly rehabilitated .Giving such person power is dangerous . They will easily obey the bosses orders and hit anyone.

Mental freedom begins by excersicing control over ones emotion. Ones emotion does not dictate what one does. Frequent outburst over little triggers signals one who is a slave to his anger. Theft and corrupt practices are signs of a slave to emotion of desire and greed. Whatever controls your emotion controls you.


Men who are unable to cry in public for fear of being labelled a weakling are in gender bondage.He cages those tears,act tough ,engage in drinking and smoking and other maladaptive act to suppress those emotion. A free person would choose to let the tears flow. Women who abandon their career to cater for kids out of duty as a woman and not out of love and personal choice is a slave to traditional gender roles.


One who is naturally kind and compassionate but will not hesitate to watch a thirteen years old boy die over opposing view is not free to his conscience. As long as we need an ancient book to tell us what is right and what is not,We cannot be mentally free. The book is thinking for us.


One who prefers candidate A but goes ahead to vote candidate B because his politicalGodfather, parent or religious leaders asked him to will continue to be a pawn in their hands. A governor who takes decision to please the Godfather but not in the state best interest is a slave to The godfather.

To be liberated from societal conditioning, we need need to examine the effect certain words have on us . He notices thoughts that brightens his mood and those that does not Why do I feel angry each time someone insults my Tribe, My prophet, my political party? These tribes, prophet, party existed long before I was born. I am not them. My happiness should not be tied to someone perception of them.


Next is to challenge our thoughts. Why do I belong to this group in the first place.? Could it be because my immediate family belonged here? If they belonged to the opposition, would I be a member of the opposition? Am I biased? Then he plays the devil advocate. He tries to see things from the opposition point of view. What if they are right?


We exlores our tendency to hand over decision making to Those perceived as superior to him Do I easily hand over decision to authority? Are authority always right? The present covid 19 pandemic showed a case of different medical doctors with conflicting view on the efficacy of Chloroquine in the treatment of the virus. Since experts could disagree over an issue, why can’t an individual disagree with the expert?

A mental free person explores various opinion ,engages in self- thinking and detach oneself from society labels. You are not your gender. You are not your tribe.you are not your religion  .These are roles assigned to us while we are young. They were neccesary at that time when we lacked the ability to think. Now we have a choice to examine them . arriving at his own decision. His decision may not allign with that of the majority.He does then anyway.


Examining ones name, do I really love my name? You can begin by choosing a different name. One that reflects whom you really are or aspires to be. We can choose the values dear to us and live by them.


The journey towards mental freedom is not achieved over night. It takes periods of continuous effort . The society would never be in support of your quest.No jailer wants her captive to be free.

My boy

I blame him for Sani Abacha, every single one of our leaders has been short sighted

While we are all happy that the people are not being suppressed, let’s remember that it isn’t over yet... Supreme Court is the final card that APC have to play

I’m here to clarify the pharmacy comments. In some countries pharmacy(like medicine) is not offered at B.Sc level. You read a normal course for three years and then master in pharmacy for two( same thing). So if you go to those countries with your B.pharm, it will be treated like a normal B.Sc and you’ll still have to do two years masters. In order to practice. I think if you do pharm D in Nigeria then you’ll be able to practice anywhere with just licensing exam. Quote me for clarification or corrections
