Greetings, I dont know whether this is the correct section to post my questions but mod can move it to where it will answered proper.

I had this LG 1.5hp air condition system fixed. Lately i have put it to work and i realize that the AC cannot be powered with 230v current. Looking at the image below, you would observe that the output of the 5000w stabilizer is 230v but at times it fluctuate between 220 - 230v.

what can i do to keep the voltage stabilized at say 230v and for the AC to work appropriately.


thank you.

It is both a step up and a step down transformer depending on where u used as ur input. In ur case, ur supply from ur transformer is about 50v, plug the side of the step up/down labelled 110v to ur wall, the other side labelled 220v become ur output which would be like double of the 50v from the input side. If u want to use it as step down, plug the 220v to ur wall. Look at the pack, u will see it boldly written step up/down. U know those guys selling just call it a step down transformer.

Juliusmalema2:
5000 volts? No. Most stabilizers have minimum voltage of 80 volts, what this means is that even if the voltage drops to 80 volts ur stabilizer should output 220 volts. But below this threshold, that is 80 volts, ur stabilizer will not work well. So in summary ur stabilizer is a device that helps to maintain ur output voltage at 220 volts. 5000va(or watts) is the power capacity, that is the total power of the equipment u plug to it shouldn't exceed 5000 Watts.

petitmonde:
that is if your are using 1.5HP machine.
For how long are you gonna be having sleepless night just to get water. If you happened not to be around and someone else put on the machine with fluctuating light, the coil could get damaged.



If you can, please do this. If 0.75hp go work well sef, get am.

Brazilian ‘baecation’ with Nigerian lover turns ugly. Namibian drug mule’s fate from hell
The former nightclub waitress and mother of one could face as many as 25 years in South African jail if convicted.

Pauline Mbangula, a Namibian woman arrested in South Africa on Sunday after airport X-ray screening allegedly detected drugs in her stomach, was apparently on a Brazilian ‘baecation’ with her Nigerian lover, who convinced her to smuggle the drugs by swallowing them.

South African Police Service (SAPS) national spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe told Namibian Sun that by noon yesterday, Mbangula had expelled 68 bullets of suspected cocaine.

“She will be taken to hospital to check if all those bullets are out. She is being closely monitored, and has not been detained at the cells because she needs to release all those drugs from her system,” Mathe said at the time.

Mbangula (30) allegedly took a flight from Luanda to Brazil with her Nigerian lover, who told her they were going on vacation in the South American country.

“Mbangula travelled to Brazil under the pretence of going on vacation with her so-called boyfriend. Upon arrival, he convinced her to ingest drugs, and upon returning to South Africa, she was supposed to meet someone - still unknown to the police - who would walk her through [the checkpoints],” Mashadi Selepe, also a SAPS spokesperson, told Namibian national broadcaster NBC yesterday.

‘Part of a larger syndicate’
Mbangula was arrested on Sunday morning at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg for smuggling 68 confirmed drug pellets. Acting on a tip-off, SAPS, along with the South African Revenue Service (SARS) and immigration officials, were alerted to a drug mule arriving from São Paulo, Brazil, at approximately 07:25 on 22 September.

Selepe further confirmed that following her arrest, she was taken to a local hospital, where medical X-rays confirmed the presence of foreign objects in her stomach.

She yesterday described Mbangula as having a "fragile demeanour and looking vulnerable", based on observations.

"She seems to be part of a larger syndicate,” Selepe added.

In an update late yesterday, Mathe said: “Another medical examination/X-ray has confirmed that all drugs have been removed from the Namibian drug mule’s body. [She] has released 68 drug bullets from her body. The estimated weight of the drugs is 850 grams".

She added: “She has been moved to a detention facility and is expected to appear in the Kempton Park Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday, 25 September, on a charge of dealing in drugs and drug possession. Additional charges may be added at a later stage”.

SAPS said the value of the drugs must still be determined.

Not a criminal’s playground
General Fannie Masemola, National Commissioner of SAPS, commended the multidisciplinary teams’ vigilance in combatting crime at OR Tambo. "Our men and women in blue are hard at work intercepting hardened criminals. South Africa is not a playground for criminals, and we are squeezing the space for transnational organised crime," he stated.

International drug trafficking intercepted in South Africa could lead to imprisonment of up to 25 years.

According to research, this dangerous trafficking method involves ingesting tightly wrapped drug packages, often covered in latex or plastic, which are stored in the stomach or intestines to avoid detection during travel. However, this practice poses significant health risks. Any rupture or leakage can result in severe complications or even death due to drug toxicity.

In 2006, Namibian woman Darlin da Silva Paiva, who was allegedly used as a drug mule, died after pellets of cocaine burst in her stomach, triggering a deadly chemical reaction. She was carrying 31 pellets of cocaine with a street value of N$205 000. Her husband, Bruno da Silva Paiva, was found with 13 pellets in his stomach, and was arrested in connection with the crime.

Who is Pauline Mbangula?
Born in Grootfontein in 1994, Mbangula lived in Walvis Bay for many years. For quite some time, she worked at a popular Klein Windhoek nightspot as a waitress.

However, earlier this year, the mother of one migrated to the north, where she stayed for some months before returning to Windhoek, where she allegedly found the going tough.

Sources from her social circles confirmed that she has been ‘struggling’ financially lately, and had been staying at a friend’s place in Otjomuise as recently as last month.

David Umahi, minister of works, says the first phase of the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway project will be completed on May 29, 2025.

Speaking on Thursday in Abuja during an inter-ministerial press briefing as part of activities to mark Nigeria’s 64th independence anniversary, the minister said after the project is completed, it will be tolled for five to 10 years to recover construction costs.

The construction of the highway began in March. The first phase of the project, made up of 47.47 kilometres of dual carriageway, was awarded to Hitech Construction Company Ltd.

“We started the coastal highway, 700 kilometers that is traversing Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Edo, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Cross River states,” Umahi said.

“People did not understand the merits of this project. People did not see this project as an investment. And so today, the first section is going to be completed by May 29 and we’re going to toll it, and we’re going to get back our money within five to 10 years.”

According to the minister, the federal government is planning to implement additional initiatives, including developing land along the corridor for tourism, factories, and housing, as part of efforts to further enhance returns on the project.

“We also acquired a number of land within the corridor, because we’ve seen that tolling of roads alone is not just going to give you return on investment immediately,” Umahi said.

“So, along these corridors, we are acquiring land where we use for tourism, where we use for factories, where we use for housing and so on and so forth.”

Umahi also said the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway is designed to relieve the strain on Apapa Wharf.

“This has long faced challenges due to its shallow berths that limit cargo handling capacity. These constraints have necessitated the costly process of transloading, where goods are shifted between vessels, resulting in significant daily financial losses for Nigeria,” he said.

The minister further said the importance of the seven axle road under construction is to facilitate the seamless transportation of goods from the Dangote refinery, fertiliser plant, and other major industries within the Lekki free trade zone.

“This critical infrastructure will connect to the Sagamu-Benin Expressway, ensuring smoother logistics and supply chains across key regions, including the north, south-west, south-south, and south-east,” the minister said.

Umahi added that the project is set to tap into the renewable energy potential along the coastal corridor, with plans to harness wind energy for future development.

Ahhhhhh! I was strolling by this thread and didn't want to comment until I saw someone defaming Gen Z yet again, I was forced to correct that wrong impression.

Yeah. The ones I know who use it affirm it's for complementary purpose.

But even the ones using it absolutely, it's their choice nau. They didn't kill anybody though.

John Chukwu

John Chukwu was Nigeria’s most famous comedian in the 1980s. He was a stand-up comedian, had a radio comedy show (Band Wagon Comedy Hour), a TV comedy show (Laff Mattaz), and a night club. He compered many major events in Nigeria, like the first Nigerian Music Awards, which he hosted with Julie Coker. In 1985 President Babangida had to send the presidential jet to pick him up from his home state so that he could MC the Command Performance to mark Nigeria’s 25th anniversary.

John Chukwu fell ill in 1990 and his family reached out to Chief MKO Abiola and President Babangida. MKO contacted a hospital in the UK and arranged for John Chukwu to be treated there. President Babangida also pledged some money towards his treatment. Unfortunately John Chukwu died before he could be flown out of the country.

He was even lying to defend himself. He called that "accidentally knocked his head in public." Imagine what he will do in secret.

We need more of this.

We have so-called Omoluabis & other Nigerians who have never heard of Western Nigeria Finance Corporation (WNFC) established in 1958. WNFC was responsible for the creation of several notable businesses, including Epe Plywood, Premier Hotels, and the Western Nigeria Development Corporation (WNDC). These ventures contributed to the growth of the region's economy and provided employment opportunities for its residents.

Western Nigeria Development Corporation (WNDC): A holding company that oversaw various subsidiaries and investments.
Leith Ross Limited: A textile manufacturing company.
Western Nigeria Printing Corporation: A printing and publishing company.
Western Nigeria Transport Company: A transportation company.
Western Nigeria Flour Mills: A flour milling company.
Western Nigeria Investment Company: A holding company for various investments.

These companies played a significant role in the economic development of the Western Region of Nigeria and contributed to the region's industrialization. Odua Investments is a continuation of WNFC. It was created to manage the assets that WNFC had accumulated over the years, and it has continued to play a significant role in the Nigerian economy.

The equivalent of WNFC (Western Nigeria Finance Corporation) in Eastern Nigeria was the Eastern Nigeria Development Corporation (ENDC). Established in 1956, ENDC played a similar role in promoting economic development and investment in the Eastern Region.

Just like WNFC, ENDC was involved in various sectors, including agriculture, industry, and infrastructure. It established companies and supported projects aimed at diversifying the region's economy and improving the livelihoods of its people.

In Northern Nigeria was the Northern Nigerian Development Corporation (NNDC). Established in 1956, NNDC played a similar role in promoting economic development and investment in the Northern Region.

Just like its counterparts in the West and East, NNDC was involved in various sectors, including agriculture, industry, and infrastructure. It established companies and supported projects aimed at diversifying the region's economy and improving the livelihoods of its people.
