You are an agric graduate and you want to cross over to medicine? Have you practiced farming to the point it has failed you anywhere in Nigeria? When medical doctors are even thinking of starting farms over unpaid salaries and all. May God help you

Can you sell at 7 naira? I need 1000 pieces, coming to pick them from Owerri. Please reply

And they had to go and sight this ambiguous project in far away Oron? Didn't they see Ikot Epene there that is a nodal town with access roads to other states? Or don't they know that matters of health emergency require swift access?
If a doctor refers a patient from Umuahia for example, when will he reach Oron in one piece given the state of our roads? Or do they think such a project would only be servicing the needs of their people only?

Nigerians are such wonderful characters. There are phenomena that surround rivers in Geography, river piracy, river beheading, river capturing. A bigger body of water can encroach the path of another and literally steal all its water, more like rediversion. A simple helicopter view or drone recording could point out this fact. And to think people are already praying on it. Is the prayer directed to God or mermaid?

Mr man, you better beg them to retain you in the US army if you want a better life! You are just going to end up collecting 100 naira from motorists and punishing local Ekiti girls for dressing wayward if care is not taken. A word is enough for the wise

Subscribed. Can we have someone say 'I have tried it and it works?'

Paying graduates peanut is the new norm in Nigeria. The government championed this shitty development through NYSC and now, this nonsensical development.
If you spent so much in government institutions and worked really hard all to graduate and be receiving a paltry 23k, then be worried. Will you be able to proceed on Master's, get a babe and talk of family, private apartment and so on with the way tomato prices are currently! Let's think!

How much can I get the seeds in owerri?

This is from Kemi Olunloyo's Wikipedia page, (middle name is omololu) so we may know whether to take her opinions seriously :
''Deportation from Canada
In August 2012, Omololu-Olunloyo was arrested in her apartment in Toronto by agents from the Canadian Border Services Agency. After being determined a flight risk when her refugee visa was not renewed, she was remanded into custody at an immigration detention center for 7 days before she was deported to Nigeria."

Let's also remember how some Redeemed branches was using the pulpit to campaign for APC during the campaign days. I hope Redeemed members are happy with the way the country has turned out now. I wonder when Jesus demonstrated this manipulative giving strategy

When you have the likes of Lai Muhammad at the helm of affairs, you will not wonder why things are stalling. Instead of putting real brains to work, he installed northerners who are not always known for strategy. Even Fashola that did well as a governor has no clue as to what is happening because he's a SAN. Bunch of square pegs in a round hole!

I hope he comes back with a better hearing ability after the session with the ENT specialist. Buhari is not known for considering the opinion of others!

I hope as many Imo igbo's get to see this. You people welcome northerners with open hands in your state but they don't think twice to behead one of your citizens. I know how many 'amahausas' are in owerri with a lot of people from the north, your governor even went as far as building a mosque for them with state funds, a predominantly Christian state, that is.
Go and learn about the Mile 12 crisis to know why you ought to keep your benevolence in check

Poorboy:
TRUE BECAUSE IT'S THE POOREST STATE, NOTHING THERE TO FIGHT FOR... Crisis in the Niger Delta is because of Oil (RESOURCE CONTROL), In the South East because of Biafra(SOVEREIGNTY), North because of Sharia Law(RELIGION) SOUTH WEST empty land nothing to fight for....

You are really a poor boy with this reasoning. I am sure you are typing this from the refuge of Lagos. South West is relatively peaceful not because there is nothing worth fighting for, but the 'omoluwabi' ethos make us better humans by not fighting senseless, waste and lost causes as highlighted.

samcolee:
I was at the scene. I don't have any pity for this thief at all. B4 they could kill him twas very difficult cos of a ring in his leg. And he was chanting name of a cult group and they were no where to help him. If you know the number of people that they've stole bike from you will have no pity. Not to mention the one that went totally mad after his bike was stole right at his presence. He's still mad. No pity!!!!!!!!!!

These are the sets of people we really should be afraid of. You still came to the Internet to praise such a barbaric, inhumane practice, not only that, you were even there. Those that don't value human life can't enhance it. Some words are better left unsaid!

Unenlightened people. Meanwhile, on the same front page, a motorcycle thief from the South West is opening his mouth wide for the camera. These idiots won't burn the wicked politicians that hold their resources at ransom, just a poor, hustling thief.

This is cheap publicity coming from Pastor Anita. To those of you capitalizing on the divorce case to score your points against Pastor Chris and you are even Christians, you have my pity. Pastor Chris is one of the pastors heavily loaded and worth listening to. Let God be the judge, not you.

You had better warned your governor to handle the fulani menace like Fayose did in Ekiti state. These sets of people are not the types to be conservative with. You are monitoring them with helicopter right? I am sure that helicopter will be available to stop them when they sneak in to remote villages at night to rape women and do what they like doing best. A word is enough for the wise.

My name is Ekpang Michael Etta, a graduate of the department of forestry and wildlife University of Calabar Calabar, currently undergoing my NYSC. I was the lead programmer at the just concluded Nasa Space App Challenge 2016. I and my team (Team Amazing from Enugu) created an app called vergee to help stop the Fulani herdsmen problem in Nigeria while also providing Norman farmers with resources as they arrive in an unknown location.


We are so excited to say that our app just took one step closer as the Top 25 global finalists were announced this week for the NASA Space Apps Challenge. VERGEE was named as a Top 5 Finalist in the “Most Inspirational” project category, and is proud to be representing Nigeria in the international competition.

With over 1200 projects this year created by over 15,000 participants, our project rose to the top — a testament to the innovative capacity of Nigerians

On the weekend of April 22–24, 2016, developers, makers, engineers, and entrepreneurs took on NASA-designed challenges, creating a diverse range of solutions. Over 15,000 people world-wide took part in the 2016 NASA Space Apps Challenge, with 1,287 projects produced.




Vergee is a mobile and web base platform that makes the lives of nomad farmers easier by providing them access to information(water point, obstacle, police station, safest route, weather forecast, veterinary doctors etc.) when they arrive in a new location.

Please join in our excitement and support #vergee as we proudly represent Nigeria in the final phase of the NASA Space Apps Challenge.

There is currently Nothing on Internet. Org free platform for agriculture. There is also no application for fish farming that can benefit a lot of enthusiasts and experts alike. May we discuss?

It's just like the time one of our mediocre politician was trying to promote cashless policy but still wants to introduce 5000 naira note. You want to decongest Lagos traffic but yet want to introduce alternative buses when you know quite well you cannot get all the danfos off Lagos road in 1 day.
It brings to mind how molue drivers/NURTW thugs burnt BRT buses in the early days because they claimed it wants to replace their source of livelihood. Don't we still see one or two molues still strutting around Lagos today?
We all know that BRT ticketing and maintenance units are managed by private companies that belong to actual people, but the identity of those people is hidden. Instead of creating more private companies to pocket funds daily, why not truly liberate Lagos traffic by:
Finishing the 10 Lane roads, the metro rail projects, creating bicycle tracks and building new interchanges that could ease the free flow of vehicles?

Do they really think we are foolish to believe this piece of poo? When did fulani herdsmen start wearing jeans, pullover and 'somodobo'? They could have as well dressed them in suit and tie. The ones we see around are not as fresh as these propaganda. They probably want us to hold on to the idea of getting some (paid) culprits to have something to talk about. Be wise people, Nigerians ought to be able to separate facts from fiction.

How come this sad occurrence easily brings to mind the death of Dapo Awopegba and other students coming from a function roughly around this time few years back? Bus was also driven by their fellow student'? I presume something really diabolic is really going on somewhere. You Futarians need to ntensify prayers!

By the time these lovely flash drives spend 6 months in Nigerian systems, those interesting pictures will first delete, it will format and reduce the memory size, then load what remains of it with virus manipulated pictures of Satan and Jezebel wedding. No be Naija we dey so? Besides have you really thought of how our people will react to having several of their wedding pictures shared to several people! If you can do something like this, why not consider another business model like engraving names for university students? That has a better business opportunity than wedding in my opinion. Do you also do otg flash like this because that may seem more marketable here these days

Why pay 1k for 1.5gig when you can get 3gig on the same airtel with 1500 naira by having the data zapping problem solved on your Android by changing the IMEI to a BB10 device? He who has an ear, let him hear.

Please God help us out here. A video that was made available to CNN, our president has not seen it and he also hopes the parents of the victims do not see it. In fact, he rather prefers to hide away in Aso rock than having an audience with the poor people and telling them the situation of things. No wonder dollar keeps rising, oil keeps falling, inflation and unemployment are at a high and no one seems to know what to do!

SageTravels:
How can I change my phone IMEI

Google it

SageTravels:
I tagged this a must read because I am very angry and I would not like my beloved nairalanders to be a victim of this Airtel scam

I bought New Airtel sim thinking that I will be buying data at cheaper rate. On the 5th of may I bought 3 GB BB unlimited plan at the rate of N1,500. I browse mostly in the evening since the nature of my work will not allowed me to press my phone during working hours, so i use the Airtel to chat in the night and keep myself busy.

Yesterday 10th of may my browser stopped working. I contacted the customer's care and they told me I have exhausted my data I was like how did a whole 3GB just disappeared in less than 5 days I did not connect it with my laptop. I didn't download much just 5 apps that was not even up to 80Mb.

This is not good at all.

Pls share your own experience.

There is now a solution to it on Android. But I fear if we all let you guys know it might overwhelm the 'secret'. Just change your IMEI to a BB10 IMEI and the data charge will stabilize. Been using it for a week plus now and no regrets

dhardline:
I suggest that the federal Government should immediately inject the funds that would have been

used to pay subsidy into the salaries of FG workers and also make available extra to be paid to

states so states can also increase the pay of workers under them so as to cushion the harsh

effect this increase will cause the people. Since the money is no longer going to the cabal then let

it come to the people.

So what of the poor wheelbarrow pushers, the tomato sellers and barbers, who will increase their income?

Pastor Sam Adeyemi said something about the capacity of Nigerian owned companies to weather a long storm. Can any local brand live to be 100 years like the likes of Heinz, Coca-Cola etc? You will wonder with the way these banks rebrand often, they are able to hold themselves up.
Thankfully it is not Heritage bank again this time, as I shall publicly announce my account number for sale immediately.

afezy110:
you must have all heard about this plan..You can subscribe by dialing *440*16#..I've been using this for a while now but I've discovered something the mb easily zaps on android phone compared to BlackBerry phones..but I've found a way to fix this.
DONT MAKE ANY CHANGES IN YOUR APN
Just tweak this imei:356760051192242
restart your phone
Problem solved
drop your testimonies

Bros you do well o.. Have you been feeling my prayers? I hope it doesn't fluctuate before the end of the month.

He better connects those Ekiti Autonomous villages to the major roads before he starts appealing shit. In your face, Lagos went to sign a food pact with a Northern state while foods are wasting away in Ekiti. I hope the Ekiti people are well fed enough not to queue for 'stomach infrastructure' if the foods were really wasting away. No offence

And some people are still trying to buttress his points. Do you all really think just because we are Nigerians too we have to be associated with your mediocre worldviews?
Future thinking countries are trying to get their citizens into space tourism and economy. Go and Google Mars One Mission and learn, this slowpoke is actually putting stakes on masquerades.
Well, those masquerade jobs belong to your children and their children, not mine in Jesus name!
