Technology Market / Re: Is This An Original LG TV by lyricalz: 11:01pm On May 02, 2020
emoch:
So I was trying to get a TV from a friend and I stumbled on this series of LG TVs from retailers from Alaba. It was all packaged in LG carton but I became suspicious when I was told the price. I think they were cheap for the prices. The 55" I wanted to get sold for 130k. I asked for the model number and was told LG 55UK64. I googled this model on Fouani site but couldn't find it neither could I get any tangible review on them.

I want to know if anyone has an idea on these TVs if they are original LG products or just imitations.

Pictures taken from jiji


you sef you like awoof o, clean tokunbo original of that same LG 55inch is more than that, it's pure and applied chinko.

Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria. We behave reckless and stubborn in Nigeria, but when we travel out to white men's country we act coordinated at our best.

Simple lockdown and stay at home order has become very difficult to obey. Why offloading lifeless goods during this period of lockdown ? Well the driver of the goods must have bribed his way through the security personnel.

Wisdom 101 teaches that you don't argue with a man carrying gun, whether Armed Robber, Army, SARS or Police.

Anyways RIP to the death.

That white men country you talking about is organized itself so who ever gets there will cordinate himself. But Nigeria is the opposite, how do you expect people to sit at home looking at their ceiling on empty stomach, is that what the white men do?
Health / COVID-19: What The Government Can Do To Alleviate Hardship This Lockdown. by lyricalz: 12:37pm On Apr 14, 2020
This is a bit long, but I think it's worth reading.

Government across the world has been battling with this pandemic, while rolling out measures to alleviate the pains and suffering that will come upon the common man and the most vulnerable.

In a country like Nigeria where the economy is not in a good shape even before the pandemic, it will be really hard for the government to begin payment of unconditional cash transfer for all her citizens, a polulation of over 200million people.

Although the government have been rolling out measures to fight out covid-19 by totally locking down some states, and also some palliatives to ease the effect of the lockdown.
The government also announced unconditional cash transfer to the most poorest people in the society, this indeed is not a bad idea, but the issue with this and controversy sorrounding this idea is the question of how the government came about the list of the most poorest in the society.
How about those artisans and traders whose source of livelihood solely depends on the income they make daily, most of whom have spent all their capital and little savings during the first phase of the lockdown. What about those working in small enterprises and institutions who don't have hope of receiving April salary amidst this lockdown?
Although lockdown have been a proven solution in slowing down the spread of Corona virus, let's not forget the hardship this will bring to the common man.

In my opinion I think the best solution is not sharing 2derica(about 2kg) of rice and a loaf of bread in our neighborhood.
Unconditional cash transfer to citizens is still the best option and choice to make. Yes the government can do it, and they have the capacity and resources to do it, the question remains if they have the political will to do it.
For those who may be wondering how, yes Nigeria has a population of about 200million, but with the help of technology we can narrow down the beneficiaries.
Let's be reminded that, there are people who have zero account balances in their bank accounts as at this moment. As I moved down to the bus-stop this morning to buy food, I saw people begging, able-bodied men and women begging for peanuts just to buy food to fill their empty stomach, who knows when last they ate.

The government can use technology with the help of bvn, to fish out account holders who have a minimum of certain account balances in all their bank account at a certain date, probably people above 18years of age. In my opinion these are the poorest and most vulnerable. Like I earlier said don't be surprised to see a man/woman with children having 0 naira as bank account balance.
Even if it's 10,000 each for the first phase it's something. At the end of the sorting we will discover that the beneficiaries of this gesture will be minimized to a population of about 30-50million as against the initial population of 200millon.

Don't tell me the government has no capacity or resources to do it, if all political office holders can forego their fat salaries and allowances for a month it will be more than enough, that's the sacrifice that we all have to pay for the poor in our dear country. Afterall the private sector has done their best in the form of contributions, our politicians are busy sharing bread. Had it been this is an election period, I don't think the masses will suffer, bullion vans will be seen everywhere.

With technology ALMOST all things are possible, but with God ALL things are possible. May God keep us save and alive. Fellow Nigerians, this is just my thought and opinion. Thank you.

Properties / Re: How Do We Eject These Stubborn Tenants In Lagos? by lyricalz: 9:11pm On Jan 08, 2020
Justcome:
I will make this as short as possible

There is this tenant that we gave quit notice since 2018 because of inability to pay the house rent. Up till now he has not moved out, we handled the case legally and its still in court till now.

This is the 3rd year that the man and his family have stayed without paying 1 naira because of our poor judicial system, we are still hoping the court will eject them this year.

Now there is another tenant that is very close to the man's wife, she did not pay 2019 rent and she was given quit notice 6 months ago to leave before December 31st, up till now, nothing has happened, we think she wants us to open a legal case so that she can stay for some more years free of charge like her friend.

Please what can we do concerning the two tenant situations?

The house is situated in Lagos. Ayobo area to be specific

I swear you weak gan, I have handled such tenants that's more even stubborn than these, since his rent expired we have no binding contract again, first I disconnect the light to his house, mumu was running on Gen, secondly I disconnected water supply to his apartment, I also cover the well and lock it with padlock, anybody that wanno fetch water from well comes to me for key and they return it back immediately, the mumu go outside go they fetch water. third I removed all the windows in the house, told him I wanno upgrade them, omo e no reach 1week before the mumu japa.

Thielngr:
My wife is frustrating my life I don't just know what to do.. I feel like killing myself just to end this marriage, staying with her is like living with Satan...

Everyday trouble for 10yrs now..I am tired...she has refused to work or do anything, she doesn't respect or regard me, she goes out and comes back at will without telling me where and why

She is always insulting me while looking for a fight with either bottle, hammer or the kitchen knife of which I have endured all these years because of our children, her pastor told me 8yrs ago that she will change but she is becoming more aggressive which has prompted me to cry out.

What should I do? I need urgent advice

Family / Re: My Genotype Is AS And My Fiancee Is AS; What Do I Do? by lyricalz: 6:57pm On Oct 08, 2019
BroAchival:
Greetings to this great house,

As I type this message, my heart is heavy.

Up till today, I have never known my genotype till I went to do medical fitness test for my job/employment process.

I've being dating by girlfriend for about two years and seven months now, and I've always seen her as a perfect match to me, not because she's perfect, but because she's very loyal, reserved and calm, respectful, teachable, willing to learn, beautiful and very supportive to say a few.

Kai, the thought of losing her is killing and unexplainable. cry She had been a BLESSING to me all these while.
We've really worked on ourselves and helped each other to overcome our weaknesses.

With the challenges of my new and better job, will I really have that time to woo women and start the process of working on a woman to blend and suit me?

And this is a girl I'm planning to settle down with by the middle of next year, after I must have gotten used to my new job.

I have always believed that my genotype would be AA, but I was wrong!

Somebody told me that there's nothing God can not do, that he has seen people giving testimonies about change of genotypes. I didn't doubt him, it's just that i'm not the "churchious" type who easily believe all those stories.

Now, my questions are:

1.) Is it possible to have just two children without an SS child?

2.) How do I relate this sad news to her (after she has turned down several serious marriage proposals because of me)?

3.) Please, what do I do?

Please, help me and send this to front page for greater views and advice.

Matured and very serious advice needed.

Thanks.

it's hard to lose someone you truly love, you gotto follow your heart and not their mouth.

My advice to you, is to let her know. At least you both know the consequence that will arise, if both of you can face the consequence because of love then the choice is solely yours, you can afford to face the consequence while she can't, so better sit her down and let her know.

Because if you don't follow your heart now, it may be a mistake that you will forever regret. Let it be a decision that you and her will make and not the advice from nairaland, afterall it's your life.

Good luck.
