oyienootieno:That vehicle is scrap! Anyway you have been advised to have a copy of all those conversations. That vehicle is unsafe! Please don't repair it! Sell it as scrap, let them provide the balance for a new one for you. If you have insurance, also consult your insurance company in addition to your lawyer! 1 Like 1 Share |

Audinowing:Don't listen to anyone who asks you to go to the police alone or first Have you ever heard how a written statement has been torn and has continued to be torn until a version of the story that the police like is written? You need a lawyer to help you separate facts from fiction and emotion from issues In the end the decision will not be based on how you feel about what happened but how the issues result in things like negligence on the part of the police and the truck driver To put those issues in such a way that you put the point across as powerfully as possible is where meeting a lawyer is the best thing since sliced bread! 2 Likes |

LAFO:Wrong order! Lawyer first. Anything you write will be used against you. Do you know the law of evidence? Do you know that facts, any facts you put down will end up in court? So why statement first, lawyer later. It should be the other way round! 27 Likes |

| Career › Youths - Stop Complaining! You Have What It Takes To Make A Difference!! by MPVGoddess(op): 1:18pm On Apr 24, 2017 |
So you haven't found a job? Have you asked yourself why? What are you doing wrong? You want a job? How will you be paid? With money! Who is going to make the money? Can you clearly articulate to a potential employer how you are going to make him money which he is going to pay you? OR Can you clearly articulate to a potential employer how you are going to save him money with which he will take a portion to pay you? Stop complaining, and make a difference. You can only make that difference if you are ready for introspection. Watch this video to appreciate why you need to look inwards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhk_5UBZDQA No employer loves you or wants you. Consider an employer as an enemy with whom you have no choice but to dine with and at the same time as one whom you have to please to stay alive and you are well on your way to making a success at finding and or keeping a job. No employer loves you but the same employer needs you No employee loves his boss, but the same employee needs the salary he is offered so dearly So can you prove you deserve to be paid a salary and can the employer justify paying you that salary? If the answer to both questions is yes, then you will find and keep a job! |

liquidcrystal73:Thanks, let me investigate that but one more piece of detail which may be crucial, the none-power door left passenger does not flush with the vehicle body when closed and secondly if slight body pressure is exerted at the end closest to the fuel tank door, the door ajar light on the dashboard goes off. What do you make of the above? |

| Car Talk › Re: Installing Speed Limiters In Vehicles Does Not Make Common Sense by MPVGoddess(op): 7:41am On Apr 16, 2017 |
They want to do it to private cars also.... I knew that that was the plan It is time to begin to fight that policy and give it a befitting burial Don't say you did not know, here is the link to this update https://www.nairaland.com/3742943/frsc-install-speed-limit-device The big question is why does the government not purchase speed scanners but prefers to pass on the burden to consumers in the first place? The second question is where in the first world is this done? One and one should rise and act before things get worse than this! |

grandstar:Not always is over-speeding the cause, at times it is unwillingness to compromise, to give way on the part of the trailer drivers, at other times, it is the failure of the bus driver to assume the worst when dealing with other road users and take precautions based on a worst case scenario Last time I was in Nigeria and had to use this same bus line, I wore my seat belt, I was the only one that did, every other passenger except the driver did not wear a seat belt ( am not saying that it would save lives in the event of a frontal collision, but it would/could minimize damage in such an event) 2 Likes |

Very popular in Nigeria BUT Never tow a front wheel drive with the front wheels on the ground AND Never tow a rear wheel drive with the rear wheels on the ground AND If you have to tow an all wheel drive, get a flatbled truck OTHERWISE Sorry will be your new name! CARE NOT WHAT THE TOW MAN SAYS care how your pocket will feel when it gets a bit lighter! Off with your money he goes (which is all he cares about), and you'll be left alone to nurse your bruises 2 Likes |

| Car Talk › Re: Buying A Used Car? Use This Check-list by MPVGoddess: 10:22am On Mar 03, 2017 |
Good post! Let me post a steal from other website. The signal to noise can be fierce, but I’ve learned that you don’t buy a car that doesn’t attract a following. You then troll the forums on that car. Of course, folks only post bad things, but I knew “timing chain” and “wheel bearings” for the caddy, and when the VW began to spit parts, I knew “TSB and DPF”. The GM was built after the chain issue and there was oil change history, but wheel bearings are now 3/4 replaced. If the car doesn’t attract a sophisticated audience, then you won’t get the fixes for common problems and sources of uprated/fixed parts. Some things will never happen to you. I have ONE radiator on my BMW in 300k. Forum says I should be on #4. Timing Chains are often a result of low oil and delayed changes, and you can track the changes via forums. I had the Torque Converter problem with the Honda, also commonly reported on forums-and I was able to go to the dealer with that knowledge…if I hadn’t pointed out the TSB, learned of on the forums, I’d have paid for the fix. (local Acura shop is horrible) If you care about that car, you will at least go into the used world with knowledge. I’d not know that gaskets are a problem with subaru, but when a non-automotive friend called with just that problem, I was able to tell him it was a known issue, for him, Subaru had already said “too bad” having goodwilled the fix 15k ago, and he still had a car with oil leaks and no recourse. He doesn’t read forums, isn’t a geek, and was shocked “they knew” and “they all (a bunch anyway) do that”. The reactions of folks to when stuff goes wrong is interesting too. Someone can’t get bluetooth to work, they lose it and it is 25x posts. Other folks go in for an engine swap, two posts. Still, when I considered a diesel BMW, the information in the forums saved me a LOT of money……that 335d was a good price, before you have to rebuild the top end due to EGR issues-a 10K day, and folks posted the repair orders so you knew exactly what was the problem. source: http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2017/03/used-cars-avoid-like-plague/ Morale: Which mechanic ( kazeem or educated) has the time to go through forum posts for all the makes/models he services? As you know in Nigeria, there is very hardly specialization You are your first mechanic This is the age of information It is your car You will see the check engine light first and it will bother you You will have to deal with driveability problems day in day out You will be the one out of a vehicle is the ride spends more time in the shop than out You will be the one paying for repairs If all of this is going to be on you, you had better do a good job of choosing what ride it is going to be! It all boils down to information! |

makes no sense a 6 month time-frame would have shown forethought have they thought of the implications for public safety due to congestion if everyone descends on their offices at the same time? how officers will attend to those that come? How many can be attended to in a day? How many can be attended to at a time? How much space is there for those waiting to stay while others are being attended to? How about the parking space in and around their offices? Policies made without detailed consideration of what if scenarios 1 Like |

buckdudebuck:I said used radiator is a big NO-NO. You can look up the reasons online. I also said because very few dealers import single panel radiators, car owner who cannot afford to self-import a brand new single panel radiator (because it is non-existent in the market) should buy what he sees - a brand new double panel radiator and not a used single panel radiator in the name of staying true to the original design. |
