I want to confirm if anyone has experienced my current situation. I graduated some months ago and my school senate list has been uploaded to the NYSC portal. Now I have applied for a correction of date of birth on my JAMB portal and an indemnity form was given to me which I will need to attach some backup documents to and submit to my school, after completing the due process JAMB will make the correction. I am planning to register after the correction has been made on my JAMB portal, my question now is hope I will still be mobilised based on the new date of birth?

WELL ITS WISE TO BUY SOMETHING THAT HASN'T GOT ISSUES. YOU SHOULD INVESTIGATE IF THAT PARTICULAR ONE IS AN OIL BURNER THOUGH I DOUBT THE OWNER WILL BE ABSOLUTELY HONEST.

MANY YEARS BACK TOYOTA ISSUED A (TSB) RECALL ON THESE AND FIXED THEM. I DON'T KNOW IF THE FIX HELP UP BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT MANY OF THESE CARS (OVERSEAS) WERE NOT UNDER WARRANTY AT THE TIME OF RECALL SO THE OWNERS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TAKING THEM IN FOR THE RECOMMENDED FIXES FROM THE MANUFACTURER.

BUT THEN AGAIN MANY DRIVE THESE AROUND AND KEEP TOPPING IT UP SOME EVERY MONTH, SOME BIMONTHLY. GENERALLY, AS THE ENGINE GETS OLDER, IT BURNS MORE OIL AND AT A FASTER RATE. SO DECIDE WELL

Thanks so much.

Ombudsman1:
I AM TALKING OF THE OIL INSIDE THE ENGINE GETTING BURNT HENCE REDUCING THE VOLUME OF OIL IN THE ENGINE. AS A RESULT OF THAT, OVER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, THE OIL BECOMES DEPLETED INSIDE THE ENGINE AND YOU NEED TO TOP IT UP HENCE THE CARRYING OF EXTRA OIL ALWAYS

I can now understand perfectly. Thanks so much. Please hope it's a very manageable issue?

dicksonadams:
you can buy, but you need to always carry say about extra 3 liter oil with you between oil change. then you are good to go.

Do you mean the oil inside the engine?

Ombudsman1:
OH OK. THEN YOU MUST TREAD CAUTIOUSLY. ITS 2AZ-FE ENGINE (YEARS 2007 – 2011) ACTUALLY BURN OIL. NO CAP.

MY GUY WAS ALWAYS CARRYING OIL UPANDAN TILL HE SOLD IT. HE WOULD ALWAYS TOP UP EVERY TWO WEEKS. ASIDE HAVING TO CONSTANTLY TOP THE OIL UP, CAR WAS NEAT AND PERFECT. NO OTHER ISSUES

Do you mean the oil inside the engine? Because I noticed there was oil under the white container of oil

Ombudsman1:
ITS AN XLE TRIM. I THINK THAT SHOULD HAVE THE 2GRFE V6 ENGINE. THOSE ARE NOT OIL BURNERS AT ALL.

ONLY THE ISSUE OF A VERY BRIEF RATTLE ON COLD START IN SOME

No, it's not a V6 engine it's 4 cylinders

Dozieson:
Please check if it is burning oil. That could be the only fault. That engine is notorious for oil bum

How do I check for it?

Please I need more responses.

Association of Nairaland Car dealers would say yes, like some rightly advised, visit jiji and ask your local mechanic around you, the prices in nairaland are always too outrageous.

Alright, thanks. I will

Originalsly:
If all is well ....then you should get it as soon as possible. Chew on this .... one year old ... what was the exchange rate back then? .... how much was the car valued back then? It probably cost him N3 million at the time .... which was maybe around US $8K . The Naira has lost more than half its value since ... and the car lost maybe around US1K in value which will ring its present value to around US$7K.... which is over N5M. Instead the owner is asking for just over US$4K ... N3.5M. It's a good buy to get the same car at $5K a road..... then to add shipping and clearance fees etc.... what will be the final cost? When the Naira depreciates ... it takes time for the price of assets to catch up. Buy now before it catches up.

Thank you so much for this. I like the breakdown

Thank you all. More responses please

Thanks.

I am about to buy a Toyota Camry 2009 XLE for 3.5M direct from the owner. The car clocked one year it was cleared this month and is still very neat without anything to fix. Please I want to know if it is a good deal.

Enroll for CIPM to be a certified human resource personnel.
I opine that Human Resource management is better.

Thank you so much for your response.

Professionals in the house, please I need your advice on choosing between Marketing and Human Resource Management for a postgraduate course as a Psychology graduate.

Based on the reality of the labour market in Nigeria and possibly in abroad which one has more prospects?

More responses, please.

I use Redmi 10c. I bought it last year and it's been a great device. Good Battery, Good Performance and Sleeky Look. Can't say much about the other phone

Thank you, God bless.
What about the camera quality and general performance?

Please technicians, phone dealers and users in the house advise me, I am trying to choose between Redmi 10C and Tecno Camon 16 Pro both of them are fairly used and they are going for 55k and 54k respectively but my fear is that I don't want to make a wrong choice. Which of them should I go for and why?

Thanks

When you start to see all your kids in dark complexion, can you be disciplined enough to feel joy?
Go on your knees and say, "Dear LORD JESUS, thank YOU for YOUR love and mercy, please guide me to make the right choice in picking a spouse in JESUS name, amen.
And watch everything fall in place

You have not committed your desire solely to GOD yet

Thank you so much for this!

N2B2:
Abegi!

All this grammar to hide the reality, which is: you will make this complaint again after marriage and make her suffer.

Just free the poor girl.

What if we turn out to be a good role model to couples and I don't make her suffer like you're saying?? I only came here to seek advice on areas I was having issues with. You have aired your view and I appreciated it.

Future is not meant to be viewed with too much negativity. I am of the opinion that marriage need efforts from both partners to work out even if one marries Miss World. Marriage is about making decisions to be responsible, what comes may.

If I don't have the intention of getting it right from the choosing level l wouldn't have been seeking advice here. We are brothers, be constructive in your criticism and be kind and gentle with your advice.

Thank you

Favfables:
OP...

In your words, "she's a perfect definition of a wife material, and she meets 70% of your requirement as an ideal wife"

So you want to bypass the above for looks??

Looks that will definitely fade in the next couple of years... That's what you're prioritizing over 70% ideal wife material?

Tis well o...

Well...

The decision of whom to spend the rest of your life with is not something you should be lackadaisical about, just pray about...

Much thanks for you and to all Nairalanders that have rendered their piece of advice. May God bless you and yours. I have chosen values over mere look and I will fervently seek God's will towards the relationship as you've advised.

Godada:
Like you rightly said: truth does not matter, perception is the reality.

As a person that have been in this institution called marriage for over 15years, here is my candid advice....

Value character above beauty. Beauty fades.
Character doesn't.

Any man that wishes to go far needs a stable home, and most times, it's the woman that guarantees this.

The Good Book says,
It is better to live in a corner of the housetop [on the flat roof, exposed to the weather]
Than in a house shared with a quarrelsome (contentious) woman.


You should review your expectations on the subject matter that concerns the beauty of your lady.

The thing is this.....If she meets up to 70% of what you want, you have struck gold.

Let me reveal a little secret. You train yourself to love someone. It's an action. It's something you do every day and voila...you are in love

While you are at it.....build on your communication. Nothing beats communication in building a home.

I must confess this has 100% settled this issued for me sir. I wanted raw truth from experience and this I have gotten in the most basic and comprehensible manner.

Thank you so much for taking your time to break this down to me sir, may God in his infinite mercy keep on blessing and upholding your home.

helinues:
Unstable look, hope that's not effects of pancake?

Some ladies can almost use one at once

Funny you.
She doesn't wear make up only her natural beauty with her natural long hair.

Pierocash:
You never loved her person. You are been driven by lust for beauty that is why her looks is what determines your feelings for her.


You are emotionally unstable,and I am afraid for her,you will be a very big problem for her after marriage.

Lol.
Like one scholar rightly opined truth does not matter, perception is the reality, that's the way you perceived the whole matter. My brother, issues of this gravity is more than you are seeing it, it's better for me to seek advice now and get it right than....

Your opinion is very appreciated, I will look into some iotas of sad truth in your submission.

Thank you for giving me some of your time.

MufasaLion:
Your solution is within you and it is that you would have preferred if he was light skinned but sadly she's not, hence the reason for the beauty fluctuations. You also want your offsprings to be light skinned or brown skin as least, but you can only get that if your partner or spouse is light skinned in order to compliment yours.

I'd urge you to think over your choice again and decide whether you wanna continue with your dark skinned babe or go for a light skinned woman that you will see and be happy with her look always.

Follow your heart!

Thank you for this very candid advice, may God bless you. I had the intention of marrying a light skinned lady but you know sometimes life can be funny, there'll come a time that we will have even our deepest and most cherished goals and plans adjusted because we humans only make our plans but God....

I'm about to adjust to that new reality now and that's why I'm seeking advice from intelligent and experienced nairalanders if it's something I can truly outgrow. I also want to know how important look is in a marriage and what really matter in a marriage if beauty will not really count in the marriage in long run.

Once again thank you
