A worker with Médecins Sans Frontières, also known in English as Doctors Without Borders, has joined a host of other Nigerians to mourn the loss of former Nigerian president, Shehu Shagari, who died on Friday, December 28th, after a brief illness.

Ibrahim Ashafura, took to Facebook to reveal that he was supposed to take care of Shehu Shagari on the day he died as he shared a picture of him looking after the ex-president.

He wrote; Inna lillahi wa Inna ilaihi rajiun. May your gentle soul rest in paradise. I was supposed to take care of you today. I still can't believe you are gone. Shehu Usman Shagari. Former President.

Shehu Shagari died at the age of 93 at the National hospital in Abuja.

Buddhist methods are the only time tested proven way. It involves segregating Male/Female, and high amounts of discipline instilled by a ritualized lifestyle in nature. Most importantly lack of stimulus and exposure except for the most Senior monks who eventually graduate and can interact with society without temptation. It takes decades of training to achieve this ability. There is no way for the average untrained Man to do this.

It is impossible to expect humans in regular city environments where Sex is everywhere on TV, Ads, Social media, etc. to conform to rules made 2000+ years ago.

So if you want to control the urge, join a buddhist monastery. Otherwise you are out of luck.

After all, is said and done, the Lagos State Government finally set a date to commission its 820 buses to the public.

As earlier predicted, we released some exclusive pictures of the BRT buses to you when they were in Ikeja BRT park.

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode on Wednesday said plans have been firmed up to roll out the Bus Reform Project of the State Government in March with 820 high and medium capacity buses, saying that the initiative would redefine public transportation and make the State to be globally competitive.

The Governor, who said this during an extensive inspection tour of ongoing projects across the State which lasted from morning till late in the night, said the initiative was basically designed to inject 5,000 buses, modern terminals, facilitate ease of mobility for residents and also rev up Lagos economy, among others.

While inspecting the assembling plant at Awoyaya in Ibeju Lekki area of the State which is also serving as the temporary holding bay for 500 out of the 820 buses, Governor Ambode expressed optimism that the buses would be rolled out after the elections, while the next phase of the project would be to assemble the buses in Lagos.

"This is an assembling plant. The dream is that beyond the procurement of 820 buses by the government, the next set of buses in the vision should be assembled in Lagos in this assembling plant and another one in Epe.

"That is the dream and the whole project is scalable and in this scale right now, we would run with the 820; you have seen the maintenance workshops and all that, and then the next scale which is the next phase is for Nigerians to be able to assemble the buses in Lagos and then we create employment opportunities and also allow the GDP of Lagos to grow. The buses are ready and we think with everything we have done, we should be able to roll out these buses may be immediately after the elections," he said.

AutoReportNG was able to get some exclusives of the assembly plant in Ibeju Lekki...

GOVERNOR UDOM EMMANUEL'S INTERVENTION ON ARO CHUKWU - OBOTME ROAD

For Udom Emmanuel, construction of economic viable roads remains his priority. This is because he is interested in connecting the state to economic nerve centres of the state.

The Aro Chukwu - Obotme road in Ini LGA is one road that has touched the lives of the people in that area. The road had suffered so much decay in the past decades.

The road which leads to Aro Chukwu from Ini LGA and it is very strategic as commuters are so happy and relieved.

Recall that Ini LGA is rich in agriculture and hence the need to give them a road as this to enable the farmers export their produce to other parts of the state and country at large.

This is why you should support Udom Emmanuel for a second term.

And she will head it, our country is not going to be engulfed by fire, probably you guys will set your own house on fire and Not Nigeria.
You people should free the woman, on 2015 you guys tagged her Buharis sister, come 2018 you guys called her niece, later in same 2018 you guys called her distant niece and now 2019 you guys are calling her inlaw. Can't you see that you people are confused, you people are just looking for what to hold on when the game is over.
I will urge you people to brace up and face your campaign, channel all your energy on why Nigerians should vote for you.

Today APC governorship rally was held in Sokoto under the supervision of Senator Wamakko and it was breathtaking.

The mammoth crowd that followed the APC candidate all the way from the streets to the venue was stunning.

Sokoto was at a standstill today and this is clearly far beyond what PDP could gather in their Presidential rally in Sokoto.

APC owns sokoto. Wamakko has stamped his authority on that undeniable fact.

The video clears all doubt to the fact that PMB/APC owns sokoto and Tambuwal is on his way out.

Ur number 1 answer is wrong....enter into any banking hall..theres a frame placed in every bank called STR / CTR... suspicious/ currency transaction reporting....all deposit in excess of 5M for individual nd 10M for company accounts is reported to CBN nd NFIU(Nigeria financing intelligence unit).... so he needs to break it into more than 2 units...


No2... he can withdraw..but they will give him some stress...but if he can show some evidence of the land sale like receipt and agreement just to make them comfortable...that will do just fine...so far he's not trying to withdraw the whole 10M at once...

No3..his account could be frozen depending on the kind of account he opened...there are 3 levels of saving account..if it's level 1 or 2 he opened which cumulative balance . 100k nd 400k respectively then it will be frozen once 10M hits the account...so he will need to submit extra document to convert the account to standard level 3 savings account. KYC would be carried out..b4 he can then withdraw..
No 4...there are 3 levels of savings account..
Level 1..u open with just a passport photograph highest single deposit is 50k cumulative balance is 100k
Level 2..opened with a photograph and any kind of bloody ID card...highest single deposit is 100k maximum balance is 400k...
Levek3...the standard Savings account..opened with valid ID..pasport, nd phcn bill...pay a u like..withdraw as u like..
But all kinds of accounts weda Sav or current is still subject to the CT and STR policy...
So OP should know his level b4 he will go and credit 10milla inside one yeye account.....bankers are not nice when it comes to suspicious entry..they will tell u straight up..we know it's ur money but u can't just withdraw at the moment...

oluplus:
Dear OP, there is no maximum limit placed on a fully KYC tier 3 saving account, so no need to worry. My only concern is we will ask questions. We may not be interested in what the money is meant for but more concerned about the source of the money. We will definitely flag it as a suspicious transaction since such an inflow is entering the acct for the first time. It must be reported to regulatory authority so as avoid being sanctioned.
You should also ensure that your Bvn is in place and must be the same with your acct details. (name and DOB). With this., you will be fine.
God bless

Happy Holidays to you again!
I hope you're having a great time
where you are and thanks for
the best wishes.


OK... there is a low-intensity war
in the NE and the nation-wide military drills
are just meant to show preparedness
like it's done in most countries of the
world like Singapore and other Western
countries from time to time.


Have a great 2019 ahead... all the

Seasons Greetings konquest, just saw this post while doing a little research on the origin of the word "Okoro".

In Urhobo/Isoko/Itsekiri "Okoro" means man/boy, example of names associated with Okoro are;
Okotie (Okoro-tie) - short man
Okorodudu (Okoro-Odudu) - Black Man

Edo also bears "Okeren" (Might not get the spelling correctly) which means boy (Corrupt form of Okoro), I also heard those from Ilaje and Ikale bears something related to this, and when I asked about the meaning they told me it means "Aged Man".

Igbo also bears Okoro, and it means boy/banchelor/young male adult. but haven't heard of "Okoro" been translated as "Bitterness", my question is, how can Ekiti have a different meaning to this particular word even when it means boy in other Eastern yoruboid dialects.

Sir Olu Okeowo,the property merchant,Philantropist and chairman of Gibraltar construction Nigeria limited,is one of few silent Nigerian billionaires that love to spend big on luxury cars.

He along with the founder of First City Monument Bank founder, Otunba Subomi Balogun and Aare Bolu Akin Olugbade (both of whom have at least 11 and 10 Rolls-Royces respectively ), leads the proud owners of the Rolls-Royce brand in Nigeria.

His passion for cars has seen him splashed about ₦2 billion Naira on Luxury cars in his Ikoyi Mansion alone, making his car collection one of the largest and most expensive car collections in Nigeria.

While there’s no way of telling exactly how many cars he owns, the walk around Video above shows he has not one but over 5 Rolls-Royces models that includes 4 Phantoms and 2 Ghosts in his fully air-conditioned garage in Ikoyi,lagos.

He also has Bentley models like the Continental GT and the extra luxurious Mulsanne Extended Wheelbase, along with other cars like Mercedes G-wagons,Cadillac Escalade SUV, Toyota Land Cruiser, Range Rover SUV,just to mention a few .

The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) has disclosed that it registered over 69,000 business entities in two months. This was coming after the launch of its Business Incentive Strategy (BIS).

The acting Registrar-General of CAC, Lady Azuka Azinge, who said this during a media roundtable in Abuja recently explained that before now, the number of business registration they had in three months of the same period was about 50,000 and in two months, the number grew to over 69,000.

She also said they are still expecting to have a very large number of businesses registrations before the end of December.

According to her, the main aim of crashing the cost of business registration in Nigeria from N10,000 to N5,000 for a period of three months (1st October to 31st December 2018), was to enable massive registration of small businesses in the country.

“People are already asking for extension and we have just written to the minister of Finance to extend it for another three months. The initiative is being commended by most state governments are asking and several associations saying that we should please give more time to enable them register.”

She said the initiative was in line with the major thrust of the president Muhammadu Buhari's administration which centred on revamping and diversification of the economy through constantly supporting MSMEs. The CAC boss said the Commission has also provided a user-friendly Company Registration Portal (CRP) via its website which gives customers real-time access to the services of the Commission from their offices or homes.
