₦airaland Forum

The issue of adopting the pay-per-view model against the usual monthly subscription model which is obtainable in Nigeria has been a subject of discourse for a while now. Most of the DStv/GOtv subscribers are complaining bitterly about the price reap-off of this current subscription regime and consider it as a cheat and believes that we should only pay for what we consume.


Now, Multichoice Nigeria has announced it would be launching a Pay-Per-View (PPV) option in the country. The company says this would allow subscribers watch some important programms not available on their bouquet. Though, at an extra cost to the willing consumers.
According to the HPR, “Pay TV operation is not like the telecom version where you pay for the amount of airtime you want to use. Pay-as-you-go, as believed by some customers, is not obtainable in the pay TV business,”

“Paying for PPV in Europe and the UK is equivalent to paying for two months subscription in Nigeria. We know Africans love boxing that is why we are bringing the best thing that is happening in the world to Africa.”
Many subscribers of Multichoice Nigeria's pay-TV service are currently having issues with the company on its fixed subscription regime.

Some of the company’s pay-TV subscribers state that Multichoice should extend the pricing model to over all its bouquets. Consumers say the current pricing regime is unfair and waste of resources as they usually don’t get the value for their money.
One subscriber lamented bitterly, saying: “Having a pay-per-view could be a good alternative, as to me the current subscription regime is a cheat on me. Initially, I used to do the full bouquet like N13000 ($42.5) and then I just thought I was wasting money and reduced it to around N3000 ($9.. What I really watch on the DStv is the E!,” said Ms. Olamide, a DStv subscriber.
Another Explorer subscriber of the DStv pay-TV states that: “The current regime is a reap-off on subscribers as we should only pay for what we consume.”

“I feel the PPV thing should work. I suggest this should be based on option as there many channels and for the explorer package where they record some of the best movies for you to watch. Then, how would do this as it would also affect them.”
This might be a good development as there is no sufficient electricity to enjoy the value of your monthly Pay TV subscription.

iPhone X accompanies many amazing features like Face ID to unlock the device, realistic Snapchat lenses, animojis, and buttonless home gestures. This buttonless home geatures made some Android fans bow, as they wished they had the feature on their OS.

Top 3 Features of iPhone X

1. Animoji: Animojis stands for Animated Emojis, and they use the iPhone’s new advanced facial camera system to map your facial muscles to that of an emoji’s so you can record and animate it in real time.

2. Button-less Home Gestures: Apple had to ditch the home button on the iPhone X in order to facilitate their all-display design. it can respond to a tap, your voice, and even a glance.

3. Secure Facial Recognition: You can register your face with the iPhone X so that it automatically unlocks when you look at it. The face unlock uses 3D imagery that's even more secure than Samsung Galaxy S8.

And when it's stolen @ gun point? The phone will save your life and its own? Or if it falls, will it open parachute?

Additionally,

The Sharpest Display on iPhone: The iPhone X features a colorful OLED display with more than 2 million pixels. That means sharper text for reading, more impressive video playback and more.

Price: Yea! the iPhone X is expensive, but it's mostly Android users that are complaining about the price. No matter the price tag Apple place on their iPhone products, millions of fans will still queue - for hours - to lay their hands on it.

Akpororo was recently slammed by rapper Yung6ix after the comedian made a joke about the singer spending over 3 million naira on drinks rather than purchasing a hit song. His DJ, Timmy , also joined in and got really personal.

He made videos calling out the comedian, saying his wife/mother of his child was once a sex slave and had aborted six times for a dancer. The DJ also threatened the comedian, saying "Your jokes would put you in trouble and make you get shot."

Ying6ix has now admitted in an interview with HipTV that he reacted without seeing the video about the joke.

According to him;

Is he a comedian?

Good morning wonderful nairalanders.

I Am having a very delicate family issues now. I am an only son of my family and 5 sisters all married, since I brought my wife to be to them they all love her with passion and they keep telling me to take good care of the girl, they keep warning me not to treat her bad.

My sister love my Wife with passion including my aged mother but my wife to be in return hates them openly to me.

She doesn't like me mention them before her or discuss any thing with them. But she adores her family so much. We have finished traditional marriage remaining church wedding which is next two weeks from today.

During our preparations my family has noticed her long mute with them in issues of our wedding arrangement, they ask me but I told them that my wife is a shy type that doesn't talk too much but I was lying.

N/B they have not done anything evil to her and they will not think about it because they all fear me but my confusion Now is why my wife hates them? One of my sister lives in the same city with my wife but she hardly visits her.

My fellow comrades please what do I do? I can't hate my sisters because they and their husbands train me in the university . I came from a poor home but seeing the love I have for education all My sisters and their husbands swear that I must attend university . My God's grace I am working in one of the best organization in the country now am comfortable. Do I chase my family away now because of a woman I am getting married to? Help am confused.

Thanks in anticipation

If you marry her you're finished. She hates your family now, she will hate you next. Run when you still can.

#3 A USA ACCOUNT WILL GIVE YOU A PROUD-HUMBLE BEGINNING WHEN STARTING OUT ON FIVERR AS A NIGERIAN SELLER

https://i1.wp.com/hustle.ng/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/WhatsApp-Image-2017-09-10-at-1.40.25-PM.jpeg?w=1000&ssl=1

Yea right! Your early days on Fiverr are bound to be humble! Taking jobs of $5 that’ll cost you hours to complete, sticking around buyer request in search of the next prey and staying logged in all day just to make sure nothing good passes you by. Meanwhile, it can even get worse if your account is Nigerian.

The image Nigerians have in the digital world is nothing close to goodness. Nobody would be willingly willing to give you a job as a Nigerian with no great reviews. Believe me, even Nigerians with hundreds of reviews on Fiverr are still struggling to survive, not to talk of you, a new seller, that doesn’t even trust himself yet.

Buyers would keep avoiding you like a plague, you’d be spoken down to, you’d think they pasted sh!t on your Fiverr profile, you will experience days of no message, nights of the same. As a new seller, you’d be poohed out, wagged out, coopered out, ausgespielt, and white-eyed. E go tire you! You will give up!

But with a USA profile, you can get some shoulder pads. It’s enough to keep you proud as a peacock, not below the navel. But this still doesn’t give you automatic sales, it only increases your chances.

The bottom line is…

Start off with a US account, use a VPN, or better still, use epic browser with built-in VPN. I’m not saying there’s no hope for a Nigerian account, you can still use it if it’s sure for you, sebi you say you stubborn ni…

Bro, I have an idea. What if I notify fiverr that I want to relocate to the US. Can they change my account from Nigerian to USA?

Here's mine

My problem with the competition is that the winning logo says nothing about the concept they told us to work with. No eagle, no speed, just a golden globe and aircraft.

All the same, it was a good experience. I made top 20 as well.

Some pastors will never cease to amaze us. Here are trending photos of a pastor whose church members were spotted kissing his shoe in front of the congregation during church service. According to multiple online reports, the pastor claimed that he walked through heaven so now his followers are supposed to kiss his shoes to get the blessings.

Netizens as usual have reacted to the development. See below;

All pastor followers are as gullible as ever. Even if you are not licking his shoes but you're still paying your hard earned money to him as tithe. He's living large and hunger wan finish you..... You're still the same. Stupid and foolish.

A short clip has surfaced online of two Super Eagles stars, Victor Moses and Ahmed Musa, appearing to snub president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick, on arrival in Yaounde, Cameroon, has surfaced..

The Nigeria national team touched down in the country on Sunday afternoon, ahead of their 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against the Indomitable Lions, which is billed for Monday evening.

As the players and coaching made their way off the aircraft, they shook hands with Pinnick and other officials.

However, Leicester City Musa seemed to walk past the NFF president without acknowledging him and Chelsea star Moses did same a few moments later.

The interesting part of this is that the wedding is going to be a private one.

LOL. If you're an iPhone or Samsung S7 user, then you should type Next ooo. Because I can bear to imagine the shock of a broken screen. A girl friend of mine broke her Samsung Galaxy S5 screen. I heard it's 45k or there about to replace.

Hello guys,

It may sound sarcastic but you might just find ways to protect yourself.

I've broken virtually the screens of all the Android phones I've ever had. The last one that got me to tears was this my Tecno L9plus. It cost me N20800 to replace the broken screen.

So from my personal experience, I will tell you five ways you can mistakenly or carelessly break your android phone screen.
Forget screen protectors. They only protect your screen from scratches. If your phone falls and any of the four angles hit the floor.... Forget it, the screen protector is useless.

1. Put the phone in your chest pocket.
This might sound stupid but yes, sometimes you just want to put it there for a second just to use your two hands on something. Bend down and bammmm your heart is broken. Guys are so prone to this. So, be careful. Don't even try it. Let this post flash through your mind whenever you're about to put your phone in your chest pocket. Never say it can never happen to you.

Let me see how interested you guys are and I will post another real possible way you can mistakenly or carelessly break your android phone screens.

Type NEXT and we shall continue.

Carl care are making a fortune from us. We need to guard ourselves.

On this forum, I am always able to communicate via threads and posts and I have no time for PMs as it is not my intention to form a cult of followers. Lets explore together and share the knowledge to those who care to think outside the cosmic programming of religions and politics.

Your logical reasoning is in agreement with Jehovah's Witnesses on this issue of Hell.

The Bible never mention Hell and Fire together. Hell could never have been a place of torment. The root meaning of the word Hell means to hide or to cover. Even Wikipedia confirmed that some unscrupulous individuals associated Hell with torment.

Kudos bro. Once you don't agree with their general but wrong beliefs, they see you as strange and they'll start calling you names.

Ololanla:
Heaven is real, Hell is real.

Heaven is real, right? And it's a better place abi? This world is full of suffering and pains, right? And you will have to die to go to heaven, right?

Why is it you all don't want to die? Shebi na heaven unar go go?

Die nar and go there to enjoy.

Foolish hypocrisy.

Immediately, Hushpuppi's reply came in swift. He responsed saying, 'as my personality isnt for everyone, so is my response'

E still never get private jet. Making him pay for the hanger in 3 weeks, e go poor pass me. Even if he can afford it, e won't get it cos he still wants people, the general public to see him.
When you're really rich, you don't make noise. You don't create childish online presence. Poverty mentality is vividly seen around these guys. I'm not rich yet, but WHEN I am, my impact on my community will speak. Not me flashing my wealth upandan.
