Phones › Re: Why Glo Will Lose The Data Wars! by mildflame: 3:51pm On Aug 20, 2016 |
Politicalidiot: Today after almost a week of testing, I have finally gotten tired of Glo. Now, it is necessary to note at this junction that I am a heavy user of all the networks - MTN (2 Sims), Airtel (2 Sims), Etisalat (1 sim) and Glo (1 recent sim). Like everyone within the past 2 months, I had been inundated with the recent Glo data offers (#1000 for a Bazillion gb). So exactly on monday this week, I decided to take the bite and try out Glo again (after an almost 3yr hiatus). Its been 4days now, and even though I hardly write, I had to sit down and pen these cogent reasons on why Glo will be the loser of the data Wars.
1. Super Poor Network Connection: Yes. As everyone knows, Glo and poor network are 5 & 6 and its only someone working in Glo office that will tell you otherwise. Get used to super slow network the likes you probably haven't seen since the late 2000s. I could wager my money that even the Airtel 2g is faster that Glo 3g at times. Proof? A simple Google or Nairaland search will convince you (check the post date.)
2. Frequent Disconnection: During my few days of Data hell, it was as if Glo owned my phone. What with the frequent data disconnections and network vanishing at intervals. I had never experienced such sorcery prior to Glo. This may have been the end of my sorrows until....
3. GPS: Remember when I said it was as if Glo owned my phone? Yea right. They had to one up themselves didn't they? Any time I put on my data connection, so would My GPS be unceremoniously turned on. I suspected foul play on Glo 's part and a simple Google search brought me to this page on NL - https://www.nairaland.com/2899604/gps-keeps-turning-automatically-after/1 confirming my suspicion. Glo was the culprit!!! Did anyone inform Glo I played Pokemon Go? Wetin person dey use GPS do for naija? I tire.
Glo seriously just had to know where I was. . Even if you turn it off, within a minute it was back again. And God help you if you sleep off without putting off your data. Just kiss your fully charged battery Goodbye. Especially in this era that Nepa doesn't have joy
This was the last straw. I couldn't take it again (I probably will until my subscription expires Sunday. So, yes. I posted this with Glo). A bad User experience coupled with poor network? Glo is silently but surely heading for the data Gallows. Coded MTN Staff |

EsuKekereOde: This is exactly what we're saying. Indicting everyone around you as your enemy. They're after you, they want to put you down, take your life bla bla bla.
Now, you relatives must have been responsible for the hard times you faced when growing up.
This is what differentiates the average white man from a typical African man. In Africa, everything must have spiritual cause. No wonder we lag behind in every facet of life. Our extreme superstitious disposition is cancerous to innovative ideas and solutions. It retards our intellects. Your UNDERSTANDING and COMPREHENSION beats my imagination Personal Encounter/Experience means what to you? I don't blame anyone for anything cause my DESTINY is in my hand and in perfect CRUISE CONTROL |

johnydon22: Fear: Is a very important aspect of our natural self, it is rooted in survival and is a fueling value for our Survival Instincts
But when this Factor is misplaced, misused, far stretched and imaginative, it becomes a dangerous value, it becomes detrimental to survival and a psychological prison that can mar our psychological well being.
I live in a society deep in the heart land of Enugu like all southern states is lit with magnanimous religious activities, a gripping clutch of outright superstitious fantasy, a pitiable belief and fear of witchcraft.
"Mrs Mmuo has been accused by her daughter in-law of being a witch. She lost two babies in miscarriages and the last was a still birth. the only chant she knows right now is
"My mother in-law is a witch, she ate my babies, my pastor confirmed it"
Mr Obiajulu has been branded a wizard by his Children, he had laboured to see them through school now they are independent. the first son had some troubles in his business and the man of god's never wrong pointing hands fell on his father.
Now the song is "My Father is a wizard working against my progress, man of God confirmed it"
Yes little children are not left out of the party, any child with a slightly unique but different character is a witch, a reincarnation of an ancestral spirit .
The prayer house even used Cane on the little Ada to get her to confess. Marks of darkened cane stripes adorn her flesh as a testimony.
"Holy Ghost fires" rents the air as the church beside attack spiritually the witches of the night while the rest of us need to twist and turn in bed unable to close our eyes from the shouts and bangs robbing us of sleep.
The average Nigerian society is riddled by the fear of Witches and Wizards, by the fear of such vague abstract notions that is no more than a psychological epilepsy conceived by a misplaced fearful mind.
it is a dangerous belief, a social menace and a stumbling block to our psychological growth.
-Every whiff of wind is a witch-craft manifestation.
-the rats and cockroaches in the house trying to find something to eat are in fact monitoring spirits sent from the village to monitor progresses.
-The cry of owls in the night is actually that of a witch in assignment..
-A child talking in the sleep is possessed.
- Every weird looking uncle or grand mother is actually one responsible for your problems.
-Every night mare is a revelation that an evil is attacking you.
It has gotten to the point that Husbands can accuse wives, mothers accuses children, wifes accuse mother in-laws, uncles, fathers, grand mothers, grand fathers.
everyone is caught in that web of fearful accusations and untold scare.
If you wear a red shade, you will see everything in a shade of red, the trees will beam down with red leaves, the sky will be smeared with red
It is time to take out that red shade, time to rid your mind of unhealthy baseless beliefs rooted in sheepish fear, ignorance and simplistic gullibility to what bible wielding, tongue firing, swag bearing men of God said.
The mind can be our greatest ally and our greatest foe, if you convince yourself that you are being chased surely you'll live the rest of your life running from nothing other than your own mind.
You'll spend your life battling imaginary enemies every night and day in an unending streak of illusionary wars.
You will be a prisoner of your own mind, a captive of your own fear and that can only diminish your ability to live freely.
It is time to take out the red shade and see clearer time to shed these vague abstract fears and breathe freely
Nothing diminishes the human potential more than victimization of one's self. Stop blaming every other thing for your misfortune and thereby making yourself the victim.
One problem with such fearful vague fantasies is that it keeps you busy fighting over enemies that are not there, compounding your problems with imaginary causes thereby invoking the need for imaginary solutions.
That is when our belief and fear becomes an enemy to self.
The rate of such demeaning belief etched in the minds of the average Nigerian makes this society an easy prey for selfish con men who would utilize this fear to extort the masses while dipping them deeper into this illusionary show down of fearful fantasy.
It is either you choose to be master of your own self by ridding your mind of any diminishing belief and fear or you subject yourself to the rule of your fears.
Removed the red shade and put on a clearer one That a suit wearing man accused your mother to be the architects of your problem doesn't make it true, your illness are natural, your dreams are a projection of your mind, nobody is tying down your progress.
In a life and society ruled by random uncharted interactions there is bound to be an uncaring outcome from these events. Good and bad can happen to anybody irrespective of their belief or character, what you make of such situations is all that matters.
Roping them around belief in witches rather compounds your problems and keeps you busy chasing and fighting nothing ..
We should all gun towards a healthy mind, unshackled by fear of vague concepts and unbound by imaginary battles.
Our youths should stop mobbing old men and women in the name of killing witches such practises are long gone in the global scale and are regarded as the dark ages in human history.
Children should stop being beaten, maimed and even burnt because of flimsy baseless accusations emanating from a con mind swallowed by a fearful and gullible mind.
With the sad eventuality of this demeaning beliefs in such a vague notion as Witches, with it's effects found in almost every nook and cranny of our society.
One can rightly assert that belief in witchcraft is a social menace, one we must evolve and leave behind for our own good. ACADEMIC/ THEORETICAL write up, you know ABSOLUTE NOTHING |
Christianity Etc › Re: The Menace Of Belief In Witchcraft by mildflame: 2:18pm On Aug 03, 2016 |
I smile whenever I read WRITE UPs like this Experience remains the ultimate teacher, if you have never encounter a ONE on ONE situation you will basked in " non-existent" mentality. While growing up, we(FAMILY) and our tenants witnessed WITCHCRAFT at the hands of a relative we sheltered thinking we were doing good to a soul. I personally was the main centre of ATTACK and 2 others( Amos n Ify). WITCHCRAFT EXIST in AFRICA EUROPE and ASIA and the AMERICAS what they feed on is your FEAR but your BELIEF is key
I will soon write on my PERSONAL encounter here on NAIRALAND however the TRUTH remains that your DESTINY is in your HAND |

Politics › Re: Effects Of Brexit Results On The African Largest Economies by mildflame: 5:18pm On Jun 24, 2016 |
CaptainEColeJnr: NIGERIA Nigeria: bad timing Britain’s exit from the EU couldn’t have come at a worst time for Nigeria, Africa’s largest economy. At a time when the government is trying to fix an economy on the brink of a recession by removing strict currency controls and also liberalizing oil prices, the immediate effect of Brexit will test the nerves of Nigeria’s economic managers as global markets plummet.
Bilateral trade between Nigeria and the UK,currently valued at £6 billion(about $8.3 billion) and projected to reach £20 billion by 2020, will be disrupted as trade agreements made under the auspices of the EU have to be renegotiated.
“For Nigeria, global risk aversion as well as a softer oil price is likely to mean that new portfolio inflows are slow to materialize,” says Khan. “This may delay the normal functioning of the newly liberalized FX market.
”Data from the National Bureau of Statistics shows that the UK was Nigeria’s largest source of foreign investment in 2015.A slowing British economy and its reverberating effects could signal a drop in investment, trade, and also remittances from the Nigerian diaspora who sent home $21 billion in 2015.Reduced trade and investment from Britain willnot necessarily be plugged by the rest of the EU, say Lagos-based economist Tunji Andrews.
“The EU will be looking to strengthen it’s internal ties, plus there’s cheaper oil from Iran, cheaper labor from China and the eastern block.
There’s really nothing we have as a competitive advantage to them right now.”Brexit is already fueling other independence campaigns. Within hours of the vote, leaders in France and Holland, Italy and Denmark called for their own referendums on leaving the EU. This sentiment is shared in southeast Nigeria as well, where government forces have spent much of the past year quelling violent protests by activists advocating for the secession and establishment of an independent country called Biafra. Having already called for a referendum earlier in the year, pro-Biafra activists may now be further emboldened. GUGURU and EKPA analogy... |

FredN: It is not irrational fear when they are actually trying to kill you. Why should they leave millions of undeveloped, inhabited lands and start slaughtering farmers over small small farms?
Muslims are very afraid that is why they have hijacked all the apparatus of the state to push for their obvioua inability to peacefully evangelise and convert people
Before 1960, Nigeria was 10% Christians, 40% muslims. Today 52% christians hence we see state govt forcing Muslim and christian schools together, boko haram, parents refusal to allow muslim girls marry christian men but promoting the reverse, if a muslim converts to christianity he becomes a target for killing.... muslim nepotism in appointment and religious bias in voting Before 1960, Nigeria was 10% Christians, 40% muslims.
