I hate the fish too but my wife loves it. She makes it almost all the time..
In fact the one she made yesterday, I was just eating it with strong mind ni, everything about it irritates. Just knowing that it's cat fish I am eating alone is enough to make me puke.
the only exception is if it is dried/smoked.

If it's dry, I can manage it. But you see that peppersoup or grilled, I don't near it.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
Smoked to total dryness.

If you chop egusi wen I use this thing cook, you'll realise how blasphemous your comment it.

Long live catfish inside egusi

Thought I would have seen your picture on your profile, so that I begin to prepare for bringing you to my house.

What's with all these truck accidents sef?

If our FRSC and VIO are working very well, there are vehicles that shouldn't be on the road.

Back in the days, we used to see vehicles with stickers "Off-Road" pasted on it, meaning it should be moving on the road because it's dangerous. You will be ashamed to drive such vehicle as the owner.

Nigeria has faded like okirika cloth

This is one fish I dislike with passion. How do people manage to eat it sef?

yemclef:
Why do you intentionally become a pessimist?

Because unlike you, I still have my brain intact and face realities.

You have done a wonderful job here.
Endeavour to shed more light on CONTRAILs, HOLDING PATTERN and others for the benefit of those who were not in the know of basic flight info before now.

Thanks

Damn! Nice ride

But on which stretch on that bumpy road, bro? Probably after Ahoada.

Try it on PH to Eket/Ikot-Abasi road.

At what speed should the O/D be engaged on an Auto transmission?

O/D is always "on" by default.

When you press the O/D button and it illuminates on the dashboard, it is "off".

onez:
This is the type of post that should grace front page and not all these tribalism.

Thanks

Another white elephant project that will soon be abandoned.

Safer in what way?

Is it not Dei-dei arm men stormed recently and abducted people?

Wike, you can't be a judge in your one case.

Our legislators are very funny creatures.

So, with the numerous problems in Nigeria, it's the national anthem that is their problem?

This is exactly what you get when people who lack idea of how things work are put in positions.

Let's keep deceiving ourselves by pretending we are moving forward as a country.

Why do Nigerians like to jump fields? Tiwa is a successful music artist. She should remain in the music industry and not switch to movies.

That was how Tonto Dikeh and others tried their luck in music and failed woefully.

You can never find Nwanosike on the peaceful and honest side.

No mind me I am sure this post will get to front page. The mods have to sha do better.

So, Mynd44 and Fergie001, you guys wants me to kill cow before you push this to front page to educate Nigerians?

I wrote this same thing on LinkedIn and Facebook and garnered a lot of good comments and likes. People appreciated it

But here in Nairaland, you prefer to allow people wallow in Ignorance.

This is why I no longer write educative posts here again, even with my other moniker.

Remember uan no dey pay me o

Peace out!

She should be sacked with immediate effect and jailed. That's impersonation.

It's not good to reward bad behaviour.

Igbo people have the people at heart unlike the Northerners that are decimating their people in the name of bandits and BHTs

Yes o. Na my wife bi dis.

So I saw a lot of comments made out of ignorance on this thread

https://www.nairaland.com/8096708/why-does-petrol-colour-differ#130020767

Let me clear all doubts and fears by explaining it.

You see, when PMS (petrol) is produced in the refinery or imported from abroad, it is colourless; very clear just like water. But for the users, you and I, to differentiate it from water or kerosene, that "pinkish" colour is intentionally added.

The process of adding that colour is called "Dye-ing" and it has nothing to do with the octane rating or quality of the petrol. It is just for safety purpose.

And Yes, you can actually have different shades of that "pinkish" colour because the petrols are coming from different sources with different amounts of "dye". That is, the "ppm" differs, hence the different shades. No need to be scared.


This is also similar to the "smell" you perceive in your kitchen when your gas is leaking. When cooking gas (LPG) is produced, it is odourless. (It actually has a smell but not that one you perceive in your kitchen)

That "smell" you perceive is intentionally added so that you can tell when the gas is leaking.

The process of adding that "smell" to cooking gas is called "Odourization", and the substance used for the odourizing is mercaptan. Usually Ethyl Mercaptan. (Only chemistry people will understand this )

That "smell" also has nothing to do with the quality of your cooking gas. It is just for safety purpose.

But is there adulterated petrol? Definitely yes, but it's not really what the masses assume. (I will talk about this on a different post)

Now you know!!!

Mynd44 and fergie001, let's educate people.

immortalcrown:
Someone honoured your invitation and you rewarded him with torture and detention. So, being civil is now a crime? I always say that the makers and the enforcers of law in Nigeria are more unlawful than the rest.

Miscarriage of justice has always been the order of the day by the Nigerian security agencies. They scapegoat innocent and peaceful individuals.

In a sane country, nobody will be arrested unless the beaten soldier identifies the person to be involved. But in Nigeria, a fight between an officer and one person in a marketplace warrants the arrest and detention of all the people in the marketplace, especially if the market is perceived to be dominated by non-Hausas.

Why did he honour such invitation? And he's even an Igbo man. It's illegal to be legal in an illegal environment.

Thank you so much.
I love your post.

Thank you. I am happy they you like it

emmahoney:
Petrol (also known as gasoline) can have different colors due to various reasons:

1. Dyes or markers: Refiners or distributors may add dyes or markers to identify specific batches or grades of petrol. These colors can indicate the type of petrol, its octane rating, or its intended use (e.g., regular, premium, or diesel).
2. Additives or detergents: Some petrol contains additives or detergents that can impart a color. For example, some petrol may contain a red or yellow dye to indicate the presence of a specific additive package.
3. Contaminants or impurities: Petrol can become discolored if it contains contaminants or impurities, such as water, dirt, or other substances. This can cause the petrol to appear cloudy, hazy, or colored.
4. Age or degradation: Over time, petrol can degrade or oxidize, leading to a change in color. This can result in a darker or more yellowish color.
5. Regional or country-specific regulations: In some regions or countries, petrol may be required to have a specific color or marker to indicate compliance with local regulations or taxes.

Common colors of petrol include:

- Clear or transparent: This is the most common color, indicating a pure or refined petrol.
- Yellow or amber: This color is often used to indicate a mid-grade or premium petrol.
- Red or pink: This color may indicate a high-octane petrol or a specific additive package.
- Green or blue: These colors are less common and may indicate a specialized petrol or a specific regional or country-specific regulation.

Keep in mind that the color of petrol does not necessarily affect its quality or performance.

So, I saw this picture on a blog and too many comments were made out of ignorance.

My landlady is a down to earth kinda person.....

She's always buSy at her store,hence,no rules...

But as a sensible tenant,there are things you shouldn't do cuz you should be wise and mature enough to know they aren't right......

Since I packed in-here,I've experienced so much peace of mind.....

On the other hand....my landlord good, my landlord good, na im dey make person no build house o.

LordIsaac:
Octane number rating: from regular to premium😊

This is wrong. The colour has nothing to do with octane rating

Saskay44:
What's the difference between the both

That colour has nothing to do with adulteration or octane rating

It called "dye-ing".

That colour is just to differentiate it from water or kerosene. Petrol is colourless but it's dyed so that you know that it is petrol and not water.

It is similar to the cooking gas (LPG) smell you perceive at home. Normally, LPG is odourless but it's odourized with mercaptan for you to identify when it's leaking.

Amaewhule is not the current speaker of RSHA.

Tinubu is an akpa amu.

What type of economics is he using on Nigeria?

Oh, I remember now, they are teaching Peter Obi and Obidients a lesson
