EducationRe: Name Or Surname,which comes first??? by kobenol(m): 1:20pm On Sep 09, 2015
Actually Nigeria Identity Management Commission NIMC has described the correct order for personal data collection and storage for ease of retrieval and sorting.
It is SURNAME, FIRST_NAME OTHER_NAME.
That is the acceptable fornat for documenting everybody in all institutions from government to academics to Medicals and every platform.

But in personal introduction and informal to less formal settings usually when surname may not be mentioned it is usually FIRSTNAME SURNAME.

In order to differenciate these two formats to not confuse a data entry officer, a comma comes after the SURNAME if using the first instance format.
PoliticsRe: Lagos Threatens To Seize Trucks Between 6am And 9pm by kobenol(m): 2:08pm On Sep 07, 2015
Although we might easily presume that this new directive is the perfect solution to magically end the road traffic accidents.
It is so far from it and rather unfair. Folks in construction would be terribly hampered by this development, why because heavy duty trucks are relied upon for delivery of equipment and material resources and critically even when on time-bound deliveries.
Traders and people in supply chain will cut losses as they won't be readily competitive in deliveries and so many instances.
An ideal solution especially to menace of falling containers would be to proactively enforce safety buckling and latching of said containers properly to the flat bed carrier trucks especially from the wharf, this would go a long way to imbibe this culture in drivers for other transitioning.
Again, the road safety and Vehicle inspection service should simply be doing their statutory roles rather than targeting naive unsuspecting drivers for extortion.
The recent container mishap should have been sighted and apprehended for inadequate safety checklists by these officers had they been doing their job before such unfortunate incidence.
The 6 - 9 directive will only easy traffic situations for office and school commuters and that I guess is not the real solution to these spate of accidents.

Dude is a creative artist. He Can easily represent ideas in real life. He's got that knack for problem solving as well. He'll go on to be a civil engineer or mechanical engineer.
Let's wait twenty years... he'll be on some ground-shaking project, of course leading the design engineers.
Bravo young man.

O.k Danyl
how is your experience on their servers, also customer relations and support?
Perhaps I'll acquire a domain through them imminently.
I've experimented with a few free webhosts, you might wanna check http://www.000webhost.com It's very good and hasn't failed me. Though initial setup may take a couple days
WebmastersRe: How Authentic Is Domainking.ng by kobenol(m):
I did a who is search on them, they seem to be a group of Indians running the show, they however also have UK business address I didn't yet do a trace on their IP but my guess is their Servers may be in the UK.
http://whois.domaintools.com/domainking.ng
domainking.ng I'll presume is part of the larger domainking.biz
They have the cheapest domain name registration as I can yet find especially com.ng
TravelRe: Do I Need A Visa To Travel From Nigeria To Barbados by kobenol(m): 1:43am On Feb 24, 2015
Nigerians are an ubiquitous lot. You get to find them anywhere, everywhere.
In fact a particularly highly industrious tribe with excelling trade attributes are whom you find more all over the globe, perhaps only less the Antarctic.
It is quite jokingly said if you dont find these lots in your vicinity, that area is not liveable...Lol

EducationRe: Should I Go For Nysc Now With A 2.2 Or Drop Some Courses And Rewrite For A 2.1 by kobenol(m): 10:16am On Sep 18, 2014
@Poster
Have you done the arithmetic of possible credit points attainable in an additional semester, cumulatively divided by your total number of units since inception?
Factor in the unfortunate incidents of late assignments, ill health in exam, lateness to same, inexplicable undesirable grade outcome?
You're prob'ly in some state / fed. uni, some nasty staff with terrible attitude could as well hang your NYSC mobilisation later on, inadvertently maybe, but you can't tell.
Just graduate and launch out to life. Heck what's 2-1 when you already got brains and smartness?
Some employers will not bother to ask your grades you know?
They might just ask some intelligent questions and you impress them and you're hired.
Don't delay. I would graduate in your situation. I did anyway.
Christianity EtcRe: Video Of How Synagogue Church Guest House Collasped Plus Aircraft Hovering by kobenol(m): 6:46pm On Sep 16, 2014
And I watched this video yet over and over,
Except it was a doctored version,
I find it was caught by some CCTV cam
That structure collapsed, agreed,
In a controlled manner
Even if construction handling was poor,
Buildings don't just crumble
under five seconds, NO!
There surely is steel rebar reinforcements
that bear enourmous tension
within concrete structural members
viz slabs, beams and columns.
Also, foundation inadequacies don't fall buildings
in a sudden failure pattern as viewed, NO!
Somebody google
"Leaning Tower of Pisa"
...leaning since some 800+ years.
The seven-storey structure
been leaning since inception.
Leave that aircraft part,
It didnt drop any explosive,
Even if it did, it couldnt have achieved
such a finetuned implosion by dropping.
That structure collapse screams Implosion
All I'm saying is a structure only yields
with very conspicuous attributes
- deep cracks, buckling columns,
sagging beams, hogging slabs,
sinking partitions, leaning walls.
Not a 10-second hollywood grade
action.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Reasons New Graduates Cant Get Jobs by kobenol(m): 11:58pm On Dec 03, 2013
[quote author=Ad+]Most Nigerian graduate are really unrealistic in their quest to secure jobs. When I finished school, I was doing test with oil firms but I later realized that the queue was just too long so I decided to do something about it. I went for experience believing that if I get it, I would not have to stand in queues to get an oil job. I started with small firms that paid me as low as N13,000 a month. In such firms, I was everything. After 6 months, I would resign and move to another firm. As I moved, my experience increased and my money also increased. Today I am grateful to God that I work as a consultant now, fully qualified and still moving higher. N13,000 is not up to my tithe now and age is still on my side all thanks to God.I will soon move to that oil firm which I desired for years ago as an experienced hand.
Also, most Nigerian graduates do not understand the terrain. You as a Nigerian graduate is competing with a foreign graduate (LAUTECH graduate against an Oxford graduate) who has a better edge than you, so you must work harder and know something he does not know.
So stop blaming corruption, think global and work with that mentality.[/quote]Bros. I liked your post, except you mentioned LAUTECH and fell my hand big time. I'm an alumnus. huh
Now therefore, go ye and ask for forgiveness from Dear God..lol!!

you back it up
Oh really...I thank you now therefore.
Hence I better get the ailing bluetooth working, plus remove the frustrating Win. Activation Technologies nagware.
ComputersRe: How To Restore Window 7 As In Fresh Install by kobenol(m): 10:55pm On Dec 01, 2013

Pls kindly enlighten, I have a 500GB HDD Dell laptop which I previously partitioned win. ("C"wink to 15GB and a large "grin"400-plus GB for my main storage..
I did an unofficial win 7 ultimate upgrade and b. tooth has refused to work..
I wish to restore to factory default but fear it might mess my partition scheme and perhaps expunge all my digital life.
I have no spare disk to copy the 400plus Gig. Movies and stuff and don't wanna lose it either.
Your advice is needed pls.

PhonesRe: BlackBerry Q5 Vs Samsung Galaxy Note 2 by kobenol(m):
jobgetter: @Kobenol thanks.Pls simply put,whats the sms activation code for the 2+1 plan.Hope the speed is not very poor?
Now sincerely I hate this part where you're asking the obvious again. Read my first reply VERY WELL, you'll find there are several "2+1" subscriptions viz: BB unlimited, BB complete, BB Social etc and each subscription code is listed accordingly, even there are weekly and daily variants as well say 3wks and 3 days)
e.g you want 90 days BB social 3GB 2400Naira, send "bsm3" to 440
...or 90 days BB unlimited 6GB 3000Naira, send "bbum3" to 440.
The net speed will vary according to your area. It's not too bad in my Area (Ibadan) though MTN beats them I dislike MTN itself except when I get to browse free on their network.
.
p.s 2+1 means you pay for 2 periods and get a third free..

The "sms" activation usually works unhindered, you use Airtel's default gprs settings i.e apn as "internet.ng.airtel.com"
However, I heard some sims (though I never encountered) would still not gel upon subscription, a work around to this is to subscribe for 10mb for 100bucks on top the BIS, then exhaust so the data a/c resolves itself.
Hope all the above jargon helps....
Still on still I don't quite feel Airtel's internet speed, MTN tops far more...#JustSaying
PhonesRe: BlackBerry Q5 Vs Samsung Galaxy Note 2 by kobenol(m): 7:49pm On Nov 26, 2013
I never resson blackberry...their OS is the whack of the century..
If you want a really powerful devise, iOS is it...
However Android rocks and rules my world by reason of its flexibility.
If you're wondering which data plan...Airtel BIS plans cuts it clean especially the 2+1 variants.
e.g 6Gb 90days for 3k...best deal in town.
