Being oversized is better that undersize as you can work on the former like slim fitting, or nothing can be done to it?

Not in every situations. My wedding ring was oversized. Had to get a small one till the real band will fit well.

Possible cause.
1,check engine belt
2,check your engine RPM,if it is very low.
3,faulty torque sensor,is located under the compressor.


Would have them checked and revert back.

Thanks.

Good day Sir. I drive a Toyota Corolla 2002 without any AC issues after years of usage. I noticed the AC switch blinking while driving today and stopped cooling, I had to switch Off and On again which started cooling again and after about 5 minutes again, the Ac switch started blinking again without cooling. Please what could be wrong ?

NO.

I have peeps who are working with govt.

That law is only applicable to private guys.


Bros, I work with FG and I'm telling you what's obtainable where I work. Majority of them don't follow up on these things until they're closer to retirement. You need to see how senior colleagues that retired after spending about 30years in service are complaining. I just told u about a former registrar who retired earning a little above 50k after retirement as monthly pension and was earning over 400k before retirement, where as the old pension scheme will continue paying your basic salary excluding allowances till death which amount to the 65-75% you quoted above. Things don change now ooo.
That's all I have to say. Civil servants don wise up oo, all planning their future.

Pls comparee wat you dad is earning every month to what is counter parts in the govt sector are earning.

You will know the diff bt Govt pension amd private.

The money saved in your pension fund cant carry you for a long time.

How much can the average worker save in his pension fund/

The government contribute part of the workers pension till they die,while the private guys are on their own after retirement.

So what the private guys are earning doesnt qualify as pension.

I just their own money saved somewhere for them they are getting,but the govt guys get both.

you'll get paid for 10 years after retirement but if you picked Annuity you'll be paid for life.How much will they pay the worker every month is what matters.These guys are cunning.

Will the worker earn 65-70% of his salary bf retirement as his pension for life/.

Private gus must save for their pension,but the govt guys are an opposite.
They enjoy double portion anointing for life.



The 2004 pension reform act mandates it that your employers must pay 7.5% while your own 7.5% would also be added making it 15%. Where my father retired, the company followed the act fully. He got all.

The pension from private companies cant carry you till very old age.

They are just saving part of their workers salaries via all these pension mgt companies.By the time the worker will retire reccesion must of erroded the cash.
The money saved by private pension fund managers cant carry the retired workers for a long time after retirement.So it doesnt qualify as a pension.

You can calculate it.

The govt guys get real time pension in sync with the current economy till they die.

All this pension fund managers have infiltrated private companies with their pension things.

Kindly as them about my write up.

Calculate/forecast how much they will save for you in your portfolio and how many years that money will last you if your retire at the age of 57 and live till 85-90.Compare it to the govt guys.

The only benefit of working for any govt is pension.


Bros, things don change oo, pension is now contributory which means what you saved is what you'll be paid after retirement. The one you're referring to is the old pension act. The new pension act don spoil things, all Govt workers should start planning their retirement now because it's no longer juicy as it used to be. Imagine a former registrar of a Fed Poly earning about 55k monthly after retirement. How would he cop? and that's for someone that got to the peak of his career oo, spent over 30 years in active service.

As regards getting paid for life, it all depends on the option you picked, either Annuity or Program withdrawal.

guy google is your friend research.

What they are giving you guys is not actually pension.Wait till retirement.

Na all these pension fund mgt things.

It good sha,but cant be compared to the gov guys.

If they work for 10-15 yrs they are sure of a pension for life.
Yours cant carry you for life.
if you live very long.

Bro, the guy is actually correct. Pension is contributory according to the 2004 pension reform act, your pension is contributed monthly into your pension account registered with the PFAs and whatever you contributed after retiring is what you'll get depending on what you picked. if it's Program withdrawal, you'll get paid for 10 years after retirement but if you picked Annuity you'll be paid for life.
My father retired from the private sector and he gets his pension monthly. I work with FG and if I have the opportunity of getting a multinational job, I'm leaving. In fact, the new pension act is very good for those in the private sector because what their company deposits into their PFA account is higher than what any Govt job will deposit into your PFA monthly.

On the issue of paying you pension for life. It depends on what you picked, either Program withdrawal or Annuity after retirement.

Okay so I'm back with my review of the a7 pro...
I'll try to be straight to the point...

1. Design: This device looks very nice and premium... The ocean blue makes you feel like you bought three colours for d price of one �, and the glass back and somewhat metal sides feels really great.

2. Camera: This is one aspect i don't understand the fuss about in some users negative reviews... This camera is really good. As a reminder from Redpanter1, i actually did a camera comparison with a friends redmi note 8 and the guy had to start cleaning his camera lenses. That's how good it is. The only thing it struggles with is in portrait photos in the back camera, u have to be really steady, i installed gcam-go and the front camera portrait totally blows mind. Sure, it's no google pixel, or IPhone X or S10, but it's definitely impressive.

3. Battery: Maybe not as good as you'd expect, but considering that nice full hd display, i can't complain. It should give about 7 hours screen time for normal usage. Modified: I'm currently at 3hours, 50mins SOT with 52% battery left. So you do the maths.

4. Display: Absolutely Beautiful!! I can't say any more.

5. Charging: Takes under 2hours to get a full charge, around 1hr 45mins. That's fast enough for a budget device.

In summary this device is the best you could get for its price and it's definitely punching way above it's weight(its actually a tiny bit heavy), my first Umi device and I'm totally impressed. It was nice murdering my redmi guys(i think the note 8 is around 71k now) with my 41k device in camera and display comparisons (xiaomi fanboys abeg mk una nor come for me). Any questions prospective buyers wish to ask, i gat you. Let the umipeppering begin!!!

I need link to download the g-cam go please.

temmym4:


He said he wants to Upgrade na. Will he remain stagnant with one car for the rest of his life?


OP. I dont know your budget, but from your selections, in order for you to continue enjoying the same Toyota reliability.. drop the Honda Pilot.

Also, If fuel consumption is your first priority, then you will be needing an I4 engine (V4 is wrong) and not V6. Toyota Highlander comes with V6 engines, so your only option here from your personal selection is the Camry 2007 - 2010 (Muscle). Do have it in mind that it comes with it's own known issues too just like your current Camry 2000 has it's own despite its reliability (absorbers, timing belt breakage and the likes) but note that every car has got it's own known issues, might be minor or major depending on your own chosen make/model.

Then, i would have recommended a corolla 2003 - 2006. Thats a good one for you if you dont mind the engine size and the compact body compared to your current car. You will surely miss the Engine and size though , but the reliablity is worth it. Even much more than your current ride.

Finally, whatever you will go for, make sure u check the Internet and ask users around you for its pros and cons.

Good luck.

Toyota Highlanders also have the I4 engine, 2.4L 2AZ-FE. Easily available here in Nigeria.

The write up is beautiful and entertaining. The writer did a great job.
Lagos' traffic can actually give sumborri high blood pressure.
I remember the day I went for a conference in VI. I left Ikorodu (Agric o) 7am; got to VI 12.30pm.
When I got to the venue, I saw people trooping out - lo and behold, they'd finished the conferece.
Me I kuku entered the venue, sat down and enjoyed sweet a/c for like an hour. Also chatted with one of the facilitators.

I kent comman waste transport fare biko tongue


Yours was good bro, 7am - 12-30pm.

There was an era when you have to pay your land use charge bill to the bank and take your teller to Alausa to get receipt and cleared. I left Ikorodu garage at 9am and got to Ojota at 3:45pm. I was about turning back at that junction because the normal Alausa staff won't attend to you at such time, called Dad to update him and encouraged me to get to Alausa, funny enough the trip to Alausa was really free and I was attended to that day.
Since I relocated out of Lagos since 2017, I've been grateful honestly. I even wake up 7:30 here and still get to office before 8am. Na real Eko for show.

Bro. the story might not be true but some people are so lucky with good job in this country oo. A girl of 20years was recently employed where I work, an FG job for that matter and running her Msc also. Monthly gross pay is over 100k. Imagine what she could save between 19 she got the job to 24 years. I also have a boss who got to the peak of her career which is level 15.7 at 45 years and still got about 25 years left in service.
