Eya I know you must have been using it by now. Pls what advice do you have for me about price and the camera because I wanted reversing my decision to get Gionee marathon M5 for this Infinix hot note pro

Now that Infinix finally decided to introduce updates for most of their phones, they are one of the best low/Mid range Android phone manufacturers. That being said, the Gionee M5 is still waaaay better in my opinion(except for the 16gb internal mem) so if you can afford it, then go for it

First off, I want to start by saying that it is high time we Nigerians (esp youths) woke up saw our world as it really is. That being said I will like to satrt from the top. [img]Alamieyeseigha-.jpg[/img]
Mr. Alamieyeseigha was democratically elected into power as the executive governor of Bayelsa state, Nigeria during the 1999 elections and reelected during the 2003 elections under the umbrella of the PDP (said to be the largest collection of corrupt people in Nigeria).

Two years after being reelected (september 2005 to be precise), he was detained in the United Kingdom for charges of corruption and money laundering with l of One Million Pounds (£1m) found in his London home and £1.8m or $3.2m found in cash and his bank account. He was also found to own real estate worth abou Ten Million pounds. After being granted bail for which he was asked not to leave the UK (all these happening while he was still the executive governor of Bayelsa state) he jumped said bail in December 2005 by allegedly disguising himself as a woman. Although he debunked this allegation, he allegedly blasphemed by saying that God transported him from the UK to Nigeria. I remember vividly the heroic welcome he was given by the people of Bayelsa state on his arrival back to Nigeria.

On getting to Nigeria, the Bayelsa state house of assembly impeached him on allegations of corruption, and his deputy Goodluck Jonathan was promoted to the governorship status. The following actions were funny at best.

On July 26, 2007, Alamieyeseigha pleaded guilty before a Nigerian court to six charges and was sentenced to two years in prison on each charge; however, because the sentences were set to run concurrently and the time was counted from the point of his arrest nearly two years before the sentences, his actual sentence was relatively short. Many of his assets were ordered to be forfeited to the Bayelsa state government. According to Alamieyeseigha, he only pled guilty due to his age and would have fought the charges had he been younger. On July 27, just hours after being taken to prison, he was released due to time already served.

What baffled me the most was that even with his convictions, sentences and whatnot, he (Alamieyeseigha) and his friends, wellwishers and people of Bayelsa state all maintained his innocence and treated him like a saint ans saviour of the state, even when he JUMPED BAIL!!! which was one of the most embarrassing things a governor can do to damage the standing and political intergity of his country. Even when in december 2009, the federal government hired a British law firm to help dispose of four expensive properties acquired by Alamieyeseigha in London. He had bought one of these properties for £1,750,000.00 in July 2003, paying in cash and used it as his London residence, and as the registered office of Solomon and Peters Inc.
In June 28, 2012, the United States Department of Justice announced that it had executed an asset forfeiture order on $401,931 in a Massachusetts brokerage fund, traceable to Alamieyeseigha. US prosecutors filed court papers in April 2011 targeting the Massachusetts brokerage fund and a $600,000 Maryland home, which they alleged were the proceeds of corruption. A motion for default judgement and civil forfeiture was granted by a Massachusetts federal district judge in early June 2012.

It came as no suprise when in March 2013 President Goodluck Jonathan granted Mr. Alamieyeseigha a presidential pardon, thus acquitting him of all corruption charges.

Just this week, a few days after his death, arising from complications due to high blood pressure and Diabetes which led to renal failure, the governor of Bayelsa state, Governor Seriake Dickson alleged that "his death was due to harassment from the UK and the Federal Government amid calls for his extradition to the UK to face corruption charges" and described Him as a man of peace. He (Alamieyeseigha) was said to have fled from Dubai in order to avoid being arrested.

All these now bring me to my questions:

1. If he (Alamieyeseigha) was innocent as claimed by himself and a host of Bayelsa people, why did he jump bail?

2. As an elder statesman, who claims "to want the best for Nigeria" why didn't he give himslef up to the UK authorities to be acquitted so as to have the extradition orders lifted in order for him to be able to seek quality medical health care.

3. If he was indeed well meaning to his people, how come he couldn't have built a hospital(s) which could cater for such needs as his medical issues, thus ensuring that he will not have to be flown out of the country for medical treatment.(This question is general and also applies to senator Akpabio who had to be flown out of the country in order to be treated for being involved in a car collision even after claiming to build a world class hospital during his tenure as a governor of Akwa Ibom state)

It pains me that even after seeing the writings on the wall, we Nigerians still tend to tout corrupt politicians as being matyrs, as seen in Governor Seriake Dickson's statement on the death of the ex. governor. It makes me wonder if there is ever going to be hope of ever being free of corruption in Nigeria.

PS: This article is not meant to be derogatory of insultive of any tribal faction or group and I will be happy if it is not treated as such.

sirwilly1:
Thank you very much. Your answers are very helpful. I'm going for the original version of kaspersky 2015(1 user). It was when i went to buy it that i saw internet security written on the pack and got confused.

You are most welcome...

asumo12:
dem get oooooooooo!
bangbetan was the ex LG chairman that man na scam...

well then it's high time you peeps protested at your LGA office...

Answer to your first question is yes... Windows 8+ all come with Windows Defender (an in built antivirus)
Question Two: I personally don't trust Windows Defender that much and will suggest that you get a third party antivirus
Question Three: Getting an antivirus depends on how much you are willinag to pay (for the original, fully licensed copy) if not then you can download Avast and get a free license online
Question Four: For most antivirus apps, their internet security features are heavily dependent on the type of license you have. For example, Avast free license does not include a full internet securty capability

hope these answer your questions

Damn... that f'd up...if you don't mind me asking, una no get Local Government Chairman?

auditioning for boyfriends for her daughter

*Yawns* Good morning...

Back to the matter. The OP is actually right. But the world is rapidly changing and these things, half nude pic etc are not really taken as taboo in our society anymore. Especially in Nigeria where we are all trying to copy the peeps in Obodo Oyinbo

First of all, to be sincere Tecno used to inspire me with how they came up as the first company to offer affordable android phones to the Nigerian populace. As a matter of fact, my fisrt ever android phone was a Tecno N3( i really loved that phone). But then they spoiled it all with below par performance, very low quality hardware and silly Roms(yes, most of their Roms are either filled with bloatware, malware or just plain childish and non-encouraging) and their ability to produce phones with specs that seem as if they were not properly thought out( imagine the P3 which was to be an upgrade of the N3 was actually worse tahn its predecessor). They developed the same mentality that Nollywood has; "to release low quality products knowing fully well that they are not acceptable outside our shores because they believe NIgerians are foolish and can't tell the difference in quality. The final nail that shuts the coffin isn't even the exhorbitant ptices of their so called "flagships" but their non changing stance on software upgrades. As of this moment, no Tecno phone has OTA upgrade capabilities and any Tecno fan who wants to use a newer android OS have to buy a new phone. This stance of theirs has singlehandedly brought down the admiration with which myself(and i'm sure many others)
looked upon Tecno. In a market where even a #16, 000 Infinix Hot phone is now upgradeable, no one in His/Her right mind will want to go for a #70, 000 non upgradeable phone... #JustMyOpinion

The OP's idea is good natured but silly. The first Christians did not even have Bibles but they still cast out demons. Even the King James Bibles is just less than 500 yrs old. so what did those christians use then, scrolls?

Ridiculous people wif their ridiculous post... SMH

just like one mumu was saying that KJV is the only acceptable transmission of the Bible.

Shoro niyen?

Dabss:
you can't say the cameras are the same because they are both 8mp. The 8mp in iphone 6 is better than the 20mp in htc m9.


Dont let them us megapixels to deceive you.

not in this case bro. the only diff btw the hot note and pro is the 2gb+32gb mem... everything else is a lie. even the model no is still infinix x551 and hoy note is still the name on the back cover

Mcbussy:
So that stewpid video was a lie??...and I ordered 2. D funniest thing is that d 2nd 1 is for sum1 that's banking on d 13MP. Hmm...she'd be so disappointed.

If that phone ain't 13MP...Damn Jumia!!!...i'll never buy anything from them again

Well if it's any consolation, the 8mp is sharp

Jumia/ Infinix really need to stop lying about specs... imagine taking delivery of the hot note pro and finding out that the rear camera is 8mp and front 2mp...very annoying
where is the 13mp camera that is being advertised online

AMINDA:
How's the camera quality? Is it better than the hot note?

the camera is the same as the hot note... 8mp

kayodedada1:
Thought infinix hot note pro back camera is 13mp?

Nah... the camera is 8mp

seriously... this same picture trended before the release of both the iPhone 5s and 6... Una no dey tire?

spreading false rumors all around
