why confusing the lady bro? if u r the consular, will u grant her visa when u know a return flight alone cost 165k-170k, her balance will remain 230k.. will 230k be enough to take care of her bills over there and still come back here without feeling it?

So pls how much do you think is the minimum amount one can have in an account and not get rejected based on financials.

PDP and confusion.

How can Sunday be October 1 and then Tuesday is October 2?

Have they deleted Monday from their own calender?

They are also setting themselves up for serious logistical problems based on this calender.

In their bid to outsmart APC with their schedule, they didn't put enough time-lag within the events. This is a precursor to serious problems, confusion and manipulation without enough time for resolution.

....I tired.. Ooo.
With all the likes for PDP.... They lost..EDO...ONDO....EKITI...ANAMBRA
Planning to loose osun
Osun is between.. Oyetola and omisore

It started with Kogi.

nurey:
the 1999 to 2003 was plagued by transmission issues

the 4cylinder variant is extremely underpowered, don't buy if you will be loading car constantly

the rear suspension aren't load friendly, at full load it's possible to experience rear scraping

the body begins to fall as it age its also an Honda doesn't tolerate bypass.

Is it all of them that are not load friendly or you are still talking about the 1999 to 2003 models?

Also pls what do mean by Honda does not tolerate bypass?

I have noticed the body falling with age issue. It's also common with the Sienna of 2004 and above. That streamlined body of Sienna 2003 and below is very strong and looks good even after many years.

But lower years of the Odyssey has that body issues in contrast to the lower Sienna.

Thanks for the free info you avail here. Please how much will clear a 2006 Honda Odyssey?

weyreypey:
For sale 1.3

You that have been condemning Honda since. Where you carry this one come out from?

Anyways, tag the OP, he is the one still looking. Which year is this? 2008 I guess.

obekediamondfuto:
sorry but ur post mimicks the ops post and with the pic in view and also seeking for maintenance tips then...... u must be the op or in the same shoes as the op

What's the point in opening a new thread when one can key into an existing one.

weyreypey:
I will henceforth fear your recommendations.

E be like say Honda don do you strong thing in the past right?

obekediamondfuto:
op has gotten a Grande deal of a cheap Odyssey .....forget the other cars here.... it's a distraction....

in fact with this Odyssey u posted, u have arrived.

congrats on ur new baby boy

It's not the OP that posted pic oh.

I was the one and I'm not the OP. I just used the opportunity to ask my own questions from luvinhubby on where I can get the middle row seat.

obekediamondfuto:
except u r a mechanic, I suggest u pray never to know what it is

Do tell. I am curious. I have changed a lot of things in my 1998 Accord including shocks, linkages, bushings, etc but I'm still hearing strange sounds.

Originalsly:
Nice sharing. I think the most important point is to get a certified mechanic who is very knowledgeable of the brand car you want to buy. But there is always a risk....faults can be covered and only surface with time. Not a mechanic.. but from observations... toks VW is unreliable... even when pretty new... they shut down for one reason or other... same with LR. Then to find parts and on spot competent mechanics add to the mess. There is a reason why they depreciate in value so fast...yet look in pristine condition. @Op... you have spent too much on that car.... and would be spending a whole lot more if you continue to depend on it. Most likely you cannot regain your money if you sell it as is...I suggest you try arrange having it parted out....you would make back your money and a lot more.

Sincerely I can relate to this. I have seen a number of them break down on the road despite looking modern and sleek and will be wondering what went wrong.

I once assisted a guy in towing his sleek looking VW. The car just disappointed him in a workday morning on the bridge heading to Muson centre and VI.

Based on the lamentation of the gentleman about the car and what he has faced in the hand of mechanics, I made the decision never to buy a VW.

MPVGoddess:
Not all Nigerian used cars are bad.

E.g., engine mounts, radiator hoses, cooling lines, window regulators, door handles, spark plugs, tires, ignition coils, brake pads, brake disks, brake fluid hoses due to wear and tear or leakage or mechanic failure to secure from abrasion, tie rods, tie rod ends, radiator fans both the blades and the motors, strut and shocks, hubs, distributor, rear springs that work with shocks, shafts, air filters, belts, speed sensors, MAF, oxygen sensors, wiper blades, strut mount and bearings, lower control arms, thermostat, water pump, alternator, belt tensioner assembly, sway bay links, sway bar bushings, power steering pump, A/C condenser, fuel pump assembly , muffler

Have I replaced major components? Yes. E.g., transmission, engine, catalytic converter, suspension sub-frame is a pending replacement which I will do early in the near year

Pls what is suspension sub-frame?

luvinhubby:
Very very good mini van.


But uses same gear as baby boy V6, you must up your game on gear maintenance to enjoy it.

Asides regular oil change, what other maintenance tips are required pls? What duration or mileage intervals do you recommend the ATF change? And please how many DW-1 will I require for its oil change?

Also do you have for sale OR have an idea of where and how much one can get the middle row seat for a 2006 edition? Pix of interior colour below.

HungerBAD:
Wow.

Pictures don't lie.

Premium times just lost all credibility after their lie. The Moderators of Nairaland should make sure all stories from Premium Times is properly vetted before pushing it to the front page.

Premium Times seems to show some sentiments to Saraki. Since his romance and eventually defection, their reportage has been biased towards the APC.

Deltayankeeboi:
Elections are not won on nairaland. APC will never learn. Go out there in the streets and see reality for yourself.

You wey no know the way song take start, you dey hurry to dance.

Who know you? As you dey like this so, how many votes you fit boast of giving buhari.

You think it is by shouting saibaba saibaba everywhere on nairaland.

You don chop this morning? Lol better go hide your head somewhere.

PDP we taking over.

Saibaba!

Buhari is winning reelection. The SW is voting for him.

dhardy09:
Its Clearly Over for APC come 2019 Because all i can see is Vote Splitting Between 2 Northern Presidential Candidate Next year for the North While SW SS SE is a game over for APC 2019 NC would be decisive Expect Buhari back home It Happened to Jonathan so its pay back Time

Continue deceiving yourself. APC is winning the SW and they will also win the NC with a slight margin.

Hello Sir

This VIN is incorrect, for a 2006 Honda Odyssey the VIN should be

5FNRL387X6B080810

Thank you. You are right, I misplaced the B for 8. I am curious. Does this report cover the recent Houston floods?

Furthermore, pls what is the cost of a full report showing maintenance and other history? And what is your procedure for payment and receipt of the report?

Oga milito, issues lyk dis is as a result of overcharging. People use batteries for 4 years and above without bulge, worst case scenario is the battery won't be able to back up. As for bulge,it means something is wrong

I guess as much. The inverter has the option of 10 and 20 amps charging current. But I set it at 20amps, hope that is not one of the reason?

solibayo:
Gurus in the house...i need your opinion and help please

just 6 weeks after installation, the useless prag inverter gave up..

usually nepa takes light by 12 midnight and bring by 4am....now even b4 4am..dis unverter would be screaming low battery and shutdown anything frm past 3am...just dissappointing for a setup costing over 700k.

lesson av learnt so far is never pay any technician/artisan in full upfront and also never ever buy a prag inverter...never..dat brand is just useless!!!

can u believe that after the inverter packed up just 6 weeks after installation, it took this idiot installer another 6 weeks to show up and take it to the service center?

zeestone99:
I myself I v nt been a fan of prag, jst an overpriced nonsense, the only feature I lyk in prag is the dod feature, wher u can set d dod of ur Ba3s, 4 instance u set at 50%, it means it shuts dwn at 50% depth of discharge, that way u protect ur Ba3s and they last longer..
I tink that feature comes from their 4kva and above, u see dt other one dt luks lyk stab(wit disco light) is jst an overpriced nonsense... There are still things you can do to save the situation. Start from the controller, upgrade to Mppt, get additional panels, boost charge the batteries individually to break sulphasion etc

Call/whatapp 08117398294 for proffesional consult

That your statement in bold is the type I have.

I'm beginning to suspect that prag inverter for the opening developed by my full river batteries (see pix). Although the batteries have used 2 yrs 5 months, pls will you consider that a good lifespan for full river batteries not overflogged?

Presently, the inverter and batteries only gives back-up power for minimal load of lights and fans, about 5hrs at full charge. It still gives these hrs just because I use 5w LED bulbs in my crib. If I put any additional load like TV that it effortlessly bears before, all the lights in the house will just shut down, the inverter itself will just freeze up and not respond to power on/off button at the front until I power it down from behind. It will also be making one crazily shrieking alarm.

This is different from the low battery alarm, it just started doing this,. I'm even at loss if this is as a result of the weakening battery or the inverter is having a problem.

With the opening on the battery, is it still safe to use at home (see pix)? I'm considering using for at least 2 more months before replacement.

Also I have recently noticed that my petrol generator no longer charges the inverter properly.

Now, whenever I put the inverter on the generator, the generator will react vigorously and start making stressful noises (this just started happening). And all the lights will not be stable, I have lost some expensive LED bulbs which made me to just give up on charging the inverter with Gen.

With the inverter load taken off the Gen, all the lights become stable. Do you think the inverter is faulty or something is wrong with the frequency of the Generator as mentioned by someone earlier, that generator frequency may affect inverter. The inverter is 2KVA while the Gen is 3.2KVA.

[quote author=Ubermind post=53399352][/quote]Thank you for the updates. Please I want to know if NECO O'level certificate is accepted for those going for PG studies.

And is the O'level of those going for PG studies also to be weighted in arriving at their score?

What is the consequence of using a WAEC certificate with 2 critical subjects not passed, if NECO is not allowed.

Thank you.

energywatchng:
Yes we also work as electrical consultant and advisory ... send me a mail energywatchng@yahoo.com then we could discuss from here.

Alright, thank you. I'll send you a mail.


IKEDC installed one metre at one of our facilities and since the metre was installed, our least bill has been 5m per month. For Nov, they even went a step further and billed us 7m despite that they only supplied 194hrs of electricity for the month. I'm seriously of the opinion that the metre is not giving accurate readings.

Anyways, we'll talk more directly.

energywatchng:
Are you an electricity user?
Do you have a meter?
Is your meter bad?
Are you been given crazy bills?
Do you want to have an idea of your actual electricity consumption?
Do you want to have an idea of what you should be billed?

This is for you

www.energywatchng.com/billingcalculator

Here is how it works

Your Disco: You select the disco that is covering your area e.g. Ikeja disco for a resident of Surulere

Your Tariff: You select the tariff class use by your disco for billing you e.g. R2S for single phase residential customer

Supply Availability: This is the average number of hours you have light in a day e.g. in Allen we have light averagely of 13 hours (This supply availability will act as a guard so you dont put appliance usuage greater than the number of hours you have light).

Your Appliances: you select your various appliances, the quantity

Daily usuage: this is the number of minutes you use a particular selected appliances calculated in minutes (60 mins = 1 hour) so if u use it for 4 hous u put (4 x 60) = 240 mins.

Add Appliance: You click this to add a selected appliance, so u can select other ones

when you done you click calculate energy & billing. (5% VAT inclusive with the current tariff rate).

Be sincere when rating your consumption so you can have an accurate answer, also make sure you have a good internet connection to run the calculation.

here is the link www.energywatchng.com/billingcalculator/

Drop questions here if you having difficulties.

Can you carry out the work of an electricity consultant in analysing the load of a facility vis a vis calculating the estimated monthly electricity bill with the aim of establishing if the installed metre is giving accurate consumption figures.
If yes, please drop your details.

If no, do you have someone you can recommend?

If yes, please drop the person's details.

If no, do u have a company that carry out such that you can recommend?

If yes, pls drop their details, if no, thank u for your time.

Lt. Col. Lawal Abubakar is the ADC to the president

"Abubakar explained that the decision to strip the DSS officials of their roles was part of efforts to enhance security within the villa.

He said the development was necessitated by “recent events.”

He however did not disclose what the events were."

From the bolded, I think the story that the DSS bugged Aso Villa before GEJ moved out is true. This is highly unpatriotic and treasonous. I am with Buhari on this one. He needs to put them at a distance at first. If it was discovered that GEJ has anything to do with this attempt to spy on the president, PMB will definitely rescind his earlier decision not to embarrass him.

xana101:
lol. seriously i need to see the pix of the dog. it must be a very big dog

eighTHREAD:


Pls post pix of the dog scaring people

Funny enough he is just like any fully grown GSD. And very friendly. But does not trust people until a very long time. Will try and snap some recent pictures and upload during the weekend. I leave early for work and come back a lil late.

I envy the options u have to walk your dog. That area is very cool. I keep a male GSD, but walking him is usually a problem for me because of the populated area that i stay. I always get embarrassed by utterances and reactions of people on the road.

Even at a distance away, some people will just be shouting at me rudely that i should hold the dog properly oh.

Some on seeing the dog will just run and the dog instinctively too will try to chase them; I will now have to be struggling with the dog and apologising over and over to different people. I just don't understand how someone will see a dog on leash and still take off, when no be lion. The thing always surprise me, and i still experience it from time to time.

People are so funny. Some on seeing us will start sneering and even barking at the dog. Kids and even some adults sef, can u imagine. Lol. And the dog also do not fancy strangers and will communicate it to them sharply. Again I will have to struggle to control the dog and appealing to them as well to let him be.

The wahala don tire me. I hardly take him out now and he is adding weight seriously.

Etranshub:
ohh I see, the dog seems cute tho. I sure can make pick up arrangement, kindly send me a msg on 08167488947 and I will call you back to discuss details

I guess u finally got the GSD. So how is he doing on the farm? Hope he is performing to expectations? And not too aggressive?

ISPON IS NOT OWNED BY ANY INDIVIDUAL, HEARING YOU SAID THEY PAID HEAVILY I LAUGH, HSE COMPETENCE LEVEL 3 IS HIGHER THAT GENERAL HSE YET THEY WANT YOU TO GET THE LOWER ONE THAT MEANS THEY MEAN WELL FOR YOU AND THE LOWER ONE IS EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE BECAUSE IT IS THE BED ROCK...YOU MAY BE IN 300LEVEL AND YET YOU DON'T HAVE COMPLETE WAEC RESULT, CERTAINLY YOU WILL BE ASK FOR IT SOMEDAY...LOOKING AT YOUR CREDENTIALS GIVES ME JOY BECAUSE YOUR MEMBERSHIP IN ISPON WON'T BE JUST GRADUATE MEMBERSHIP BUT SOMETHING HIGHER , I CAN ASSURE YOU WITH THAT...IT IS QUITE PAINFUL BUT TAKE THE PAIN AND DO IT BECAUSE IT PAYS AT THE END RUN...ISPON IS NOT A BUSINESS VENTURE AS OTHERS AND SO THEY DON'T CAMPAIGN FOR PEOPLE TO JOIN BUT THE BENEFITS IS JUST TOO OVERWHELMING...IF YOU ARE A MEMBER IN ISPON AND YOU ARE STILL LOOKING FOR JOB THAT MEANS IT IS A GENERATIONAL PROBLEM ...

When I did the HSE courses years back, we were exempted from the General due to our background that tilts towards HSE. It was based on ISPON's advice, not as if I took the decision myself. My issue now is why they shifted ground when it is obvious that I have gone pass the rudimentary HSE level. The only explanation is that the policy is there to rake in more funds for them.

I never implied they are owned by an individual. If you follow the process the National Assembly uses in passing private bills, a lot of lobbying is usually involved. And you cannot lobby our Honourables and Senators with empty hands, if you understand what I mean Also, for the bill to get the attention of the President to be signed to law, a lot of the lower staff of Mr President would have been handsomely taken care of. If you work close to govt, these things wont seem strange to you.

Bearshare:
A better and superior alternative would be applying for the membership of the National Industrial Safety Council of Nigeria (NISCN). They are the parent membership of which even ISPON claims to be under.

Check it out www.niscn-ng.com and confirm their superiority from ISPON's website too http://www.nispnigeria.org/

Thank you. Pls give me more information. I have perused their website and got some information but I need more. They don't seem to have an office in Lagos, or do they? If I do the application and pay the fees, is it their Abuja office I will send the application form and other documents to? Pls how long does it take them to consider an application?

I'm disappointed wt ISPON. I was made to understand some years back tht to qualify for membership, what I need is HSE Levels 2 and 3. And I did those courses.

Now I need their membership for some jobs I need to carry out & they are mandating me to do another General HSE to qualify for membership nothwithstanding that I have NEBOSH, other international HSE qualifications, HSE related masters degree and years of HSE experience. Its just as if they are asking me to go back to secondary sch. To me this is just an unnecessary waste of time & money.

I know they must have spent a lot of money in ensuring their bill is passed but that does not mean they should be more concerned in squeezing out money on different fronts in a way tht counters their earlier stance. All professional bodies usually have some levels of their qualification they can knock off in lieu of some other more advanced courses, degrees or experience.

Now tht the ISPON act mandates all HSE professionals to register with them, it is not a good idea to start off with arrogance.
