Family / Re: My 2-Year-Old Daughter Is Using Foul Words by Mottomata(m): 4:23pm On May 08, 2022
princeemmma:
Recently I heard my daughter saying "Zazoo zeh" she is not up to 2years though. Am that kind of person that always caution myself and watch the kind of music I listen at home, but she did not learn the word at home, am sure she might have heard it somewhere in her mom shop, because my wife shop is located somewhere very rough, a lot of children in the environment. But my wife does not see this as a big deal. She always told me that she can't stop the little girl from playing with other children in the hood and that's true. That day when I heard her say that word, I called her to myself and told her not to say the word again that it's not good saying such word, she nodded in approval.

Two days ago I heard her saying this common words "Eni pe". I felt really bad, because I don't want my daughter to learn those bad words, but my wife feel am overreacting.

Am I overreacting truly? How do I stop my daughter from saying such words?

Please help a friend

You aren't overreacting. You won't be able to stop her from saying such words. However, you should keep reiterating that such words aren't okay to say. You should also teach her the kind of words you'll want her to say. At her age, you'll need to guide her to follow what you want her to follow.

If you can, reduce the number of times (hours, days) she spends at her mum's shop.

You also can't stop her from playing with other kids.

Education / Re: Chrisland Breaks Silence On Sex Scandal, 5 Pupils Misbehaved In Dubai by Mottomata(m): 4:53am On Apr 19, 2022
emperor863:
This episode is a big scandal that the school should not be allowed to wriggle out of. How can a school of such calibre (or any school for that matter) allow such underage children to cohabit to the extent that they were able to engage in sexual activities and even recorded it on their phones. Is it normal for boarded students to have access to mobile phones? What a big shame.

The parents of all the children should bury their heads in shame because ordinarily, at that age (of ten years) the children should not even develop an urge for sex. Only God knows what type of moral and home training some people give to their children. That girl obviously was not having sex for the first time.

The parents should be brought to book on this because the law can do virtually nothing to these children on account of their respective ages.

Lastly, this should be a reflection of what the society really is. If this has happened, it means it can happen (or is also happening) in hundred of other cases in the country - especially among the upper crust of the society where a lot of scandals abound. Whether we like to believe or not, similar thing is happening in boarding schools all over the country.

May God heal our land and cleanse it of all satanic influence.

I align with your submission. The parents of the boys and the girl should be brought to book.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Cyril Ramaphosa Blames NATO For Ukraine Crisis by Mottomata(m): 7:05am On Mar 18, 2022
drlateef:
All sensible right thinking people will toe the line of China and South Africa. The only reality they have to understand is that, any entity that threatens your existence must be confronted. It’s a declaration of war for Ukraine to bring NATO to the backyard of Russia. And Russia has made it pretty clear for many years. But the puppet of NATO and the west in Ukraine does not listen. He has brought death and destruction to his own people. History will vindicate the honest party.

You've hit the nail on the head. This has always been my stand on this issue. Existence and survival first before sovereignty. As an individual, I'll shutdown any person that threatens me, especially if I have the capacity to do so.

Did you resolve the issue, what was done to resolve it?
Car Talk / Re: Camry 2003 Xle Battery Failing Intermittently by Mottomata(m): 5:44am On Jan 03, 2022
Dear OP,

Here is what you should do:
- Confirm parasitic drain on your battery;
- Get a new replacement battery

Just before you get an electrician, you should try this:
- Allow vehicle to park for a long time at least 4hrs
- Open the fuse box and check if any of the relay(s) is/are hot.
- Añy hot relay is most likely the culprit

Note: confirm and fix parasitic drain before inserting a new battery else the new battery will not serve you well.

Fahdiga:
What's the purpose of forcefully vaccinating people against an infection they might still contract despite being vaccinated. I think there's more to this mandatory vaccinations. Maybe money realized from the sale of vaccines. Why forcing people to get vaccinated when some of those that have been vaccinated are already dead or are infected with Covid 19.

Exactly my view on this covid vaccination. A vaccine that does not immune you against covid

Nice information however the bolded statement is incorrect .
Manufacturer will not even bother to put cat on Vehicle made for countries without strict emissions law eg nigeria and some Asians countries.
U can even checkout this; lot of toyota yaris from Elizade , Honda civic from Honda place kia and Hyundai sold from Dana doesn't even come with cat and oxygen sensors.
So cat is strictly for emissions purposes and doesn't concern performance issue on vehicles .

Thank you for the correction!

Car Talk / Re: What Next With This Honda Accord. by Mottomata(m): 9:18pm On May 17, 2021
That's a fact Piyke. The car's mpg will be affected. These are basic engineering principles
Piyke:


Not true. The car will struggle to reach optimal operating temperature and the ECU will continue to command a rich profile for the Air-fuel mix. This will certainly affect mpg.

FxHouse:
It is important to note that everything being fixed now (and more), was already addressed by radautoworks, except that the op failed to provide parts to address these issues, and even the ones he provided weren't durable and they were gotten from the person fuelling these whole drama.



In order to show that these whole charade is geared towards bringing down a HARDWORKING and REPUTABLE individual for reasons best known to everyone involved, I'd want for nairalanders to follow without bias


.

1. In over 3 years (and counting) there has never been any thread about doing anything bad to anyone, finally there is one (which was the intention from the very beginning) and all of a sudden, "raduautoworks do not know what they are doing?"

Meanwhile, the op's superarrow (of destruction), that radautoworks is being compared with, has had several complaints over the years that got swept under the rug.  Even if radautoworks messed up, why all the hate from different angles and sides, some even go as far as spewing their hatred by commenting with more than one moniker, creating new ones.

 



2. The op only chose to focus on the negative and hammer on it like every other thing was not done right, but there were other jobs that were done perfectly, part of which includes;

(i) Engine tune-up: a combination of services
(ii) Remove and replace steering rack, pinion assembly and tie rod
(iii) Remove and replace control arms (both)
(iv) Remove and replace rear axle
(v) Remove and replace front CV axle
(vi) Remove and replace oil sump
(vii) Materials required



3. The op got another free repair that amounted to N119,432 due to him providing some wrong parts gotten from yours truly.


Finally, I'd also like for you to please list out the cost of repairs (even though you're doing it for free).


@radautoworks, please keep up the good work you've been known for over the years, we understand their pain. Their envy and hate should not be a cog in your wheel of success, keep spinning, you'd crush them like you always do. Keep winning ma'am, a lot of us recognize your hard-work and trust me, we dey your back. kampe, we stand for you gidigba.

#WeMove

I have been following this thread from day 1 and I'm truly disappointed with radautoworks.

What I expect you to do is to see this whole episode as a learning curve. It will help you strategize on meeting your customers expectations.

Key attributes of successful people/organization is accountability, RESPONSIBILITY, inward looking (not blaming people up and down), integrity and honesty.

No business or organization dey grow finish as no human being dey grow finish. You need to continually seek knowledge and improve your process.

I'll stop here

Setting out a repair plan.

Some invasive jobs on the list will render vehicle temporarily disabled until work is completed, those jobs will be shifted to last so we can get more work done with a functionally running engine in case drive tests are required .


We will work in this order.

Items 7, 4, 1, 2, 5, 3, 6 then finally 8.

Let's start.


Logical plan. Good luck

Well the lower and upper limit should be 700-900k.

If the engine and transmission is very good with no visible and hiding fault then you should go for it.

I'll advise you go with someone that is experienced with Mazda MPV. (I can help if location is not an issue)

Reach me on 08172076529 I'll give you more details

These are my assumptions:

2. The BH have the funds, the technology, the logistics, the smartest folks and unity of purpose

3. There could also be sabotage on the part of the NA
