They sure look nice.


Hotels and canteens should be interested. If well-packaged maybe even supermarkets. So logistics/marketing matter.

If for example x number of X and Y can be ready & supplied fresh at 7 am for breakfast etc.

If school canteens, you may have to give free samples for a trial. Anything to get business moving.

A small kiosque in a good part of town (near banks, business district, offices) with beverages to go with it run by an employee might be an addition.

A lot except due to time difference and strict phone policy at work, you don't mind being woken up at midnight!

I am surprised you bear an Igbo name. The Igbos I knew 25 years back were excellent at customer service and wooing potential customers. I must have been away for too long.

Anyway the relative I intend to buy one old banger for can look for one by himself.

Properties / Re: Help Before I Make A Mistake AGAIN, Building 3 Nos Of 2 Bedroom Flats. by marabout(m): 12:44am On Apr 07, 2013
@bebe2,

I am not an expert.

But please clarify what that 1 million demanded by contractor is for. Foundation, to window level, lintel level? Roughly how much will filling cost? My experience is that contractors keep some expenses vague (sure some cost cannot be known beforehand) and that gives the chance to inflate things later.

I am in the same boat as you with little time to spend in Naija, and usually need people to do my my projects.

If you're not sure of adequate ROI because of location (check from other sources), you may want to build a smaller structure like a bq to save the land and spend the big money on a more profitable project.

If the 150k/flat/annum projection seems plausible, ride on now that the energy is still there to do it.

Since there's nothing to deter people, it has to be higher.

If and when Ibori manages to do "Alams" from London, there will be a red carpet welcome for him.

Sports / Re: Captain Arm Band: Should It Be By Age, Seniority Or Merit? by marabout(m): 8:55pm On Mar 25, 2013
@ Poster,

Don't forget that Amokachi was an over-aged player, one of three allowed in Olympics. Since it's more or less a youth team, it makes more sense to appoint an under 23 as Olympic team captain.

Otherwise seniority/experience/performance/consistency and number of caps are considered in senior national teams
Don't forget that somebody who got his first cap at 17 can become captain at 25 while another who was first capped at 28 may never become even become a vice-captain.

The Nation called Montserrat is different, it's in the Leeward Islands/West Indies.

Jubal01: I dont pity such stupid gals. All de do is 2 follow 'rich' guys whom they barely met. Serves them right. Their parents sent them 2 skul, nt 2 b harlotting. Devil punish them.

First of all, you have no evidence that they were runs girls. Just your imagination. Normal people going about their legitimate business are kidnapped everyday. Some never come back alive.

Secondly, I don't think you're a christian. Jesus saved a prostitute from death by stoning. The crime of prostitution under Nigerian law does not attract capital punishment. Maybe in Boko Haram Republic.

It is somebody's loved ones you're talking about.

Look at yourself in the mirror first.

baby4u2: This joke will die naturally soon. It will get stale and boring.

But one thing is for sure, if all the public officials have some form of technology, they will hope to never be in this guys shoes, ever.

There is no need for back and forth on if he's competent or not, his oga and establishment will decide whether despite his error he can still perform his duties.

Meanwhile what is really the website of this NSCDC. Is there one
.

On the contrary. I could find its way into Naija lexicon. As in "Oga at the Top" things/style/situation to symbolise a clueless public official just bluffing his/her way through Naija jungle by pandering/dobale to his/her superiors.

I Cannot categorically tell you more now. Dazall grin

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: After Getting Her A Job, I Was Abandoned by marabout(m): 11:26am On Mar 02, 2013
@OP,

It is the "Madonna Phenomenon".

Madonna the singer used different people at different stages of her career and dumped them once she got to another level.

People (especially women) are like that. They think they use their feminine charm to fool you and get their way.

I had a longstanding female friend who became like a family member. Very pretty. People would think she was my babe BUT I value friendship and don't mix love affair with it.
In difficulties when other friends left her, I was there to help. Financially, morally etc.
I thought she made mistakes but who doesn't. As a friend I have to help and advice and not judge. Through me she settled down with a friend of mine and they have kids now.

Ol' boy, not even the birth of my kids moved her to visit. Only expressing remorse when we bump into each other downtown.
That's just one case. These days I a bit suspicious of people wh want help.

I still help though.

Islam for Muslims / Re: Islam Takes Root In Brazil by marabout(m): 5:50am On Mar 02, 2013
One question I always ask myself is: if all these Abrahamic religions/prophets were from Okitipupa, Kisunmu, Timbuktu, Soweto or any other Black African place, would other races in the World have embraced them??

I am Afraid not. How come that the oldest race (blacks) have to now borrow religions from others?

I think blacks just like one kind of subjugation or another.

I think the biggest problem now with religion is intolerance of some small BUT VOCAL minorities who are hijacking the discourse. Whether it's some crazy American evangelicals burning other people's religious books or Boko Haram and the like liquidating people in the name of religion.
