Obviously the governor NO SABI anything his running elite government using state money to feed opposition.

HIS ONLY ACHIEVEMENT IS THAT HE AS KILL OPPOSITION IN THE STATE AND CHOOSE TO LIVE OUTSIDE THE STATE HE GOVERN.

But still we don't pray for agovernor like Ladi Adebutu in Ogun state.

At the bolded, I've heard that too about that man. Flying chopper every weekend.

How can this be when his traducers accuse of fixing the road that leads to his town so that he can commute from Govt House to his town every weekend...

virginchaser:
Many here comes to press their key boards on things they know nothing about. I don't know much either but i do visit places in that state regularly and i sees physical development on going at different spots.

I have a farm at Kobape and a pigry at Oba. The Sagamu-Abeokuta expressway and Housing projects at Kobape junction for me rubbishes the accusation of nothing to show either at state or local government level

A governor like Adebutu based on what antecedents?

Authority1o1: Okay...


You're going to drop your jaw when you learn the amount of money generated through tax in Onitsha alone, not to talk of Enugu and environs. But why has this road remained this way?

This project has nothing to do with the magnanimity of MTN, which is a business, so don't get all happy. Every dime going into it will be recovered with toppings because you will be made to pay for it.

Which makes me wonder what the main tax paid by people is used for.

Why must you complain about everything?

Even his complaints are senseless and idiotic

He got born-again and turned gospel at a time.....I remember when Feladey came with Pastor Ladi Williams crew in 1997/8 to LASU for a crusade. His dexterity on the keyboard was awesome....

I mean no apology, but to be honest, Nairaland as a platform is breeding and harboring a lot of bigotry. The attention of the Nigerian government should be brought to this end.

Nairaland is the rubbish dump of Social Media na!

Because quota system doesn't fly overseas and these Igbo boys based abroad are the best they can get.

Ok, read what you wrote again....if it makes sense to you....them enjoy yourself

Uchasa:
Your question is preposterous. Which basketball club in Africa apart from Rivers Hoopers has won something valuable? Yes, Igbos dominate D'Tigers and D'Tigress, because there are more Igbos playing basketball, not because they have the best talents. Having the best talents is more of a subjective assertion. Talent is inherent in specific individuals, not heterogeneous ethnicities.

My question is to debunk a lie that suggests that previous D'Tigers teem have been chosen by quota system. That is a big lie.

It is only situational that the team us mostly populated by Igbos....no one had denied the igbos of a shot in basketball...

These boys are obviously this great because they're mostly American or European based with NBA exposure...there is no other science or conjecture that supports an assertion that Igbos are now being allowed to play basketball...

emmysoftyou:
even this guy was picked on merit . He was the first Nigeria gymnastics..

Pic below

As gets picked on merit. You lot forgot that for some sport, there is a qualifying benchmark....

Boudiccao:
It has everything to do with Igbos because the boys are Igbos whether they are based in Nigeria or not.
The implication is that they got the chance to represent and play on merit knowing that Quota system doesn't fly overseas of which if they were based in Nigeria would likely not even be selected because of being igbo in lieu of the unwholesome sentiments and resentment of Igbos within the govt of the day.

Igbos must be giving you nightmares mares.
Cry all you want. The boys are Igbos and they got to play on merit!

I challenge you to name a D'Tigers team that had been chosen by quota system; What competition? Who was the coach? Who were the players?

Kinzo0917:
If na northerners full this team, we the southerners would ve be critical and complaining and bitter. Now d reverse I'd d case

I am tempted to agree with you. The cry of they are mostly igbos becos this team was "chosen on merit" is very deceptive. Can someone provide me answers to the following

1. When was ever the D'Tigres team chosen not on merit?
2. Like we have Kano Pillars, Mike Meteroes etc. Which notable Basketball club exist in SE that has won something consistently in the local league?

This team are all from the States... it has nothing to do with "Igbos" and people's jaundiced interpretation of "merit"

Springboot:
This is the most ridiculous post I've seen on nairaland, whoever put this on the home page is sure an illiterate. seun can you educate your moderators please, how can you compare gala, sardine etc to a medication like ALS? That's a single dose, are they suppose to give you overdose because you want quantity? Oh I pity the youths of today.

Bros,

The lady OP is the first of the fools. Except she's complaining about reducing the source of her abortion ingredient, reduction in size of medication should even be seen as reducing toxicity in the body

KingLennon:
So u blame the reduce in quantity to child bearing? What about the high tax rate or the inflation? You must not always prove to everyone that u have the sense of your moniker...

High tax rate compared to which country?

nairavsdollars:
From Gala to Titus Sardines and now Andrews Liver Salt, why is everything getting smaller

You want Andrews Liver Salt to be increased in quantity? You know Andrews is a drug, you want that to increase in quantity... why? For you I can't think of any other reasons except a care for your "birth-control-substance"

Proadroit:
Lool this clown thought i wont read through those articles you pulled off google in a rush to counter my question. The fact remains no bank account has been hacked remotely. No one can hack a bank account without having someone working on the inside to hack thar account.
The guy efcc pulled obviously had an insider according to the report. The other article on cbn was because a group of hackers took down cbn website, no bank account was hacked. The other articles alluded to growing cyber crime brought about as a result of people making payment on fraudulent websites.

You didn't even read through the trash you rushed to paste here. You the one with a high level of ignorance.

Politicians are deceiving your kind with lies about their reason for voting against e transmission of result and you all are buying it. You are defending people that dont want free and fair elections, people that want election results to be manipulated right before they are counted. These are the same people that are glad to send confidential information via email, do electronic bank transfers but they dont want you the masses to enjoy e transmission of election result because of some illusionary hack. Continue to be deceived by them.

So let's address your folly in specifics. Was this statement not made by you?

so whose bank account has been hacked by an external party of recent via electronic means. I am not talking of atm card theft, i am talking of remote Access to people's bank account.

When a simple Google search put paid to your ignorant submission, then you shifted the goalpost with the below

The fact remains no bank account has been hacked remotely. No one can hack a bank account without having someone working on the inside to hack thar account.

1. Make up your mind on which ignorant pedestal you want to stand, because neither cannot but crumble
2. The highlighted part shows you don't know squat about Cyber Crimes and security. A simple google search you will not put to use, you come on NL to disgrace yourself, trying to show a knowledge you patently lack.
3. You see that ignorant line of yours is simply put to shreads by a recent report of December 2020

Hackers use mobile emulators to steal millions of dollars from bank accounts
18 December 20208110
IBM Security Trusteer’s mobile security research team has uncovered a major fraud campaign that used mobile emulators to steal millions of dollars from financial institutions in Europe and the US within a matter of days.

The research team says that the hackers used an infrastructure of mobile device emulators to set up thousands of spoofed devices that accessed thousands of compromised accounts.

In each instance, a set of mobile device identifiers was used to spoof an actual account holder’s device, likely ones that were previously infected by malware or collected via phishing pages.

Using automation, scripting, and potentially access to a mobile malware botnet or phishing logs, the attackers, who have the victim’s username and password, initiate and finalise fraudulent transactions at scale. In this automatic process, they are likely able to script the assessment of account balances of the compromised users and automate large numbers of fraudulent money transfers being careful to keep them under amounts that trigger further review by the bank.

An emulator can mimic the characteristics of a variety of mobile devices without the need to purchase them and is typically used by developers to test applications and features on a wide array of device types.

IBM Trusteer says that the scale of the operation is one that has never been seen before, in some cases, over 20 emulators were used in the spoofing of well over 16,000 compromised devices.

Says the company: "The attackers use these emulators to repeatedly access thousands of customer accounts and end up stealing millions of dollars in a matter of just a few days in each case. After one spree, the attackers shut down the operation, wipe traces, and prepare for the next attack."

In subsequent attacks using the same tactics, IBM Trusteer was able to see evolution and lessons learned when the attackers evidently fixed errors from past attacks.

IBM Trusteer's intelligence team has also observed a trending fraud-as-a-service offering in underground venues that promises access to the same type of operation to anyone willing to pay for it, with or without the required skill.

"This lowers the entry bar for would-be criminals or those who plan to transition into the mobile fraud realm," says the research unit. "It also means this at-scale automation scheme can be adapted to almost any financial institution in a variety of countries and territories and is likely to become a growing trend among cybercriminals."

This is called dokono in Ghana and it's better than all Nigeria meals I tell u

My husband, a Yoruba man always confesses
that my food is something else

We hear you....

He has lied to you to make you feel good. That contraption on display, is that food?

Proadroit:
so whose bank account has been hacked by an external party of recent via electronic means. I am not talking of atm card theft, i am talking of remote Access to people's bank account. As long as you cant find an answer just know those that voted against electronic transmission of results are against free and fair elections. They want an election where they can hire kids in the north to thumbprint specified candidates and manipulate ballot papers right before they are counted.
Do not for one second think their action is in your best interest.

You asked a lame and ignorant question, and you concluded with the "as long as you can't answer ..." who told you there is no answer. What do you ignorant lots use google search for?

Yet you transfer money from your bank account using electronic means?

and several account and banks gets hacked and funds stolen. Is it full-proof?

And another person who knows the area. That's my LGA. That hill has been troubling us, not just us but those who ply that route to Abia state. Thank God the governor finally remembered to do it

Bros,

A lot of people just rant on NL, just for stupid clout and unfortunately unintelligent people are loudest here. The quality of questions are so disappointing, the submissions are low bar... peoplethat have no information and association withtheproject location are the Frontlinecommenters, and there comments largely beggers logic...you sometimes wonder if NL is a cesspool of idiocy

Why are Yoruba's always angry when they see good things happening anywhere in Igbo land?


Saddists they are.

Carry go governor Umahi, the Eku bara oha 1.

Yorubas angry with what here specifically?

The names in the list I provided speak for themselves, very few of the folks named were of Northern Extraction

As for me..

Educated in London for secondary school at an elite London school

I went to a Russell Group top 10 university

Undergrad Degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics
Masters in Computer Science

Worked at a large number of Fortune 500 companies, notably JP Morgan, UBS, Nomura and IBM

Income circa 250,000 GBP per annum and Assets in the tune of millions

Core specialisms in Finance are FX, Interest Rate Derivatives, Equities and Credit products
Technology specialisms SQL variants (Sybase, Oracle and MS SQL server), UNIX, Linux, React, Node JS, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript and MT4 C based trading language
I have also managed teams across two major investment banks.

You?

Btw I am not even the best or the brightest of the cohort of Nigerian boys I was educated with in London. Two of my Igbo peers launched multimillion pound companies in Britain. One of whom was even on TV with the prime minister extolling the virtues of one of the products his company developed.

There was only one Northern boy in our school group, he flunked his exams and turned to islamic extremism the last time I checked. I wasn't so across tribal divisions as a child, but the Igbo boys were very clear that they felt he wouldn't amount to much. To the Northern boy's shame he didn't fail to live up to their low expectations.

Even then I have never shown any malice towards northerners, as I said to others I feel we are too culturally different to share a nation. So lets go our separate ways. If your people do better than those in the South (which I doubt) more power to you..

Why do you want to be hitched to a people who you don't get along with? It makes no sense..

Shey you've landed? If you have all you claim, then it's a huge shame that you also have this to booth

1. Over-bloated Ego
2. Inferiority Complex - WFT are we going to do about all the stated CV, fake stats and investment claims
3. Lack of Polish - You claim you're educated, yet you come across as brash wannabe
4. Intelligence and Emotional Balance - Your sense of judgement, arguments and submission ain't just it
5. Fear of God - Why derive pleasure in hatred and deriding other human beings because of where they come from?

Don't worry about me. I do not need to splash my "achievements" on NL for some fake accolades.... but one piece of advise - If all these qualification are not fake, nor what you choose to aspire to be, then be grateful for God's gift and be humble with it. You've not achieve anything special yet

nograv:
It was at this line I realised you were a comedian...

I have worked abroad in both the US, Europe and Asia in finance. Across financial modelling, software engineering and trading. I am yet to meet a Northerner working in any gainful employment in these sectors.. I have met many a Yoruba or Igbo, but not one person from the North.. Mtchew lies..

This is how you give yourself away when you try to blow a trumpet of what you're not.... Are you the standard or reference of distribution Academics and Professionals of Northern extraction across the world? You come across as trying to sound as who you're not, stating vague or at best low level stages of profession

MrBachelor:
Straw man fallacy.

The argument is not about the benefits of fixing the road but notifying road users first so they won't be caught unawares.

Well that's what happens where you create or stick to context of your choice or comprehension deficit. Whoever said the argument was about notifying users in our exchange. It was about was this worth the reportage?

Why not leave Universities to determine that age benchmark for entry instead of this time-wasting endeavour

Esseite:
He would be cutting off.. export and import cost since vessels would be berthing at the refinery jetty.

Yes, that is what I mean by "other costs", but (rough math) lets assume all logistics cost is ~15%, landing cost today is ~#230, in a PIB world Dangote will sell petrol at about or more than current price. Also note that Dangote has heavy loans tied to the Refinery and if the moratorium period is over, he'll be under pressure, so expect no form of subsidy from him....

Kandeed:
ok.... meanwhile you made me insult you and also made me sin against God. I'm sorry man

I will rather say humbling yourself and not debasing your fellow man is what you should pray to God for

Sunisonflex39:
They should have put a signpost of so and so date that construction will commence

Sure! but we need to rationalize it thus, do we want the road to be fixed or we want our current "(in-)convenience" to continue. The untold hardship we went through at the early days of Lagos-Ibadan expressway, this is little compared to that. When someone put up a phone call to Fashola, he explained the reality of the choice being made. When that road is completed and beautifully done to standard, I bet you road users will not remember the incovenience
