Brillantman: Gazzuzz, please choose one out of these cars and reason, I'm intend to get it for my brother.
Lexus RX 300 (2001-2003) Lexus EX 300,330 (2002-2006) Toyota Camry (2007-2009) Toyota Highlander (2001-2004)
And please she'd more light on this, my Audi A4 transmission light (PDRNS) came up at the same time when I was driving from Lagos to Ibadan, I had no idea of the trouble ahead, I thought it was something kazeems will correct when I get to Ibadan, only to be told that I have to change the gear which I did, I paid 170k for that, after three weeks, kazeem called me that my car is ready, elated because of the car performance that I've missed and which the likes of any Japanese cars that I have couldn't give, I rushed down to pick my car, the third day, same thing happened.. I wept. A friend of mine who is a soldier heard and think that kazeem had robbed me beat him mercilessly until I choose between having my car spoilt indefinitely or kazeem killed through beating by my military friend, I opted for the formal. After much persuasion, kazeem agreed to replace the gear again which he did after a month. I told him to call my military friend when the car is ready that he shouldnt bother contacting me because I've lost interest in the car and his services, he agreed. My friend called me that my car is ready and I went there hastily thinking that all is now well with my choice A4, after driving downtown for 30 minutes, behold, it did happened again. In a nutshell, the car was butchered because I can't risk anything on it again. I miss the car and it's performance, v6. 3.0, heavy and balance on the road, I'm still thinking of buying this particular car again but I want someone who can tell me with all honesty what went wrong with the first one. Thank you
So why didn't you change the transmission to a manual one?
Boko Haram has dramatically increased the use of children in suicide bomb attacks on civilians in Nigeria, UNICEF reported Tuesday. There has been a four-fold increase in the use of weaponized children as part of the Islamist insurgency which has ravaged the country’s northeast for eight years, UNICEF said in a statement.
So far this year, 83 children have been used as "human bombs," the majority of whom were girls.
Such attacks are used to sow fear among the population, especially of children who have been released, rescued or escaped from Boko Haram or similar Islamist terrorist groups.
“There is an extraordinary level of tension obviously in these communities and... people are afraid of children who have been victimized in this absolutely appalling way," UNICEF spokesperson Marixie Mercado said, as cited by VOA News.
"There are instances of children being ostracized by their communities and worse. Terrible things are happening to children after already horrific things have happened to them,” she added.
In total, 55 attacks used girls, often younger than 15 years old, 27 used boys and one even used a baby strapped to a young girl to carry out a suicide bomb attack.
A total of 19 children were used in such attacks last year, reports AP.
UNICEF described such terrorist attacks as an "atrocity," while stressing that the children involved are "victims, not perpetrators."
"There were two girls taught by Boko Haram to be suicide bombers ... The girls confirmed that they were taught that their life was not worth living, that if they die detonating the bomb and killing a lot of people, then their lives will be profitable," Nigerian aid worker Rebecca Dali said, as cited by Reuters.
So far, 1.7 million people have been displaced by the Islamist insurgency in the northeast of the country, 85 percent of whom come from Borno state, the main focus of such attacks.
The insurrection is now in its eighth year, having claimed the lives of more than 20,000 and forced more than 2 million people to flee their homes, reports Reuters.
At least 170 people have been killed since June 1 of this year.
Mercado added that while Boko Haram has not claimed responsibility for all such attacks, no other group is yet known to employ such tactics.
In response to the Islamist threat, Nigeria launched the Mobile Strike Force which is designed to specifically end the Boko Haram-led insurgency.
According to the Nigerian Bulletin, Maj.-Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru said: “That is why we launched MST. We finally want to wreck them. This force will have various fighting platforms and equipment to attack deep into the hinterlands and achieve the conduct of long range voyages. All these will undoubtedly help us to succeed in Operation Lafiya Dole and improve our efficiency.”
It is another year end again, please drive with care... avoid excessive speed..ensure you sleep well before engaging the wheels, and if sleep comes please park and nap. avoid night journeys on bad roads and when you do not have good headlamps.
