GlobeTrotter2:From this I can say that Russia was the one that showed the US the way to go about encircling your your enemy. US learnt from Russia with the Cuba crisis issue and now they are doing the same back to Russia. |
Anyone here using the chaka app, and hows your experience with it. I have been noticing that out of trading hours, most of the time the app hardly connects and you can't use the app. I downloaded and started using it this year some weeks back. Anyone experiencing the same. |

seunmsg:Chief, abeg watch the way u dey take talk. no be everybody u go dey insult up and down. U just jump, quote, dey yarn something else. If you read my comments well, I only stated about special forces staying in hotels, did I in anyway reference the article and say that the pictures posted were special forces personnel. |
Special forces do stay in hotels when they don't want to be associated with their embassy due to covert missions that their country doesn't want traced back to them, also with this, whatever action they take, they would not have official protection from the embassy in case anything goes wrong. They can also use safehouses for their stay. Also its not only special forces that can come into a country, there are also private limitary contractors that can be used. |

I would also like him to be made head of the police if its possible. Before his time as military administrator of Lagos then armed robbers were running rampant round the state until he came in, enhanced operation sweep, robbers disappeared within a short time. |
Marwa is seriously on fire |
IBILEmayweather:Why not PWAN, thought they are reliable. What were your experiences with them. Thanks |
Jacku:What is VoLTE? As the name suggests, Voice over LTE happens when your carrier allows you to place a phone call over your LTE connection instead of the older legacy voice networks. For example, Verizon Wireless traditionally used 1XRTT for all of your voice calls, relying on LTE for data. This used to be why Verizon phones couldn't simultaneously use voice and data. Likewise, AT&T and T-Mobile relied on a combination of LTE for data and HSPA+ for calls and would drop down to a 3G signal when talking to someone on the other line. With VoLTE, neither of these scenarios is necessary anymore. https://www.androidcentral.com/volte |
11Anonymous:Me self, the matter shock me. When Ntel rolled out theirs, I do not think it was phone by phone. They just had voLTE as default, so if your phone supports it on their band, you are good to go. This one that MTN is rolling its own out phone by phone, i don't understand o. |

Earlier in the day, down on the front page, we had an army general ambushed and soldiers were killed in same Taraba. What is happening there? https://www.nairaland.com/7120465/7-soldiers-killed-taraba-bandits |
blackpanda:I wouldn't totally blame the people. The leadership is suppose to provide a working enforcement procedure to combat all these failures from the citizens. If we are to look at other societies, we can't say their citizens don't do bad thing, they do but the government makes sure they pay for this. An example, from what we see and hear about the UK and US, if a road user commits a crime on the road he is fined a lot to deter them from doing this again, but for us here, do we have any worthy enforcement, rather the enforcer(police) is corrupt, we are not fined a lot, so lot of people think they can get away with crimes. Another example, during Fashola's time, any road user going against traffic or using one way is usually taken for mental evaluation, that really stopped most user from going against traffic because nobody wants to be taken to a mental institution for test. |
My question is, what is a 'no trace account' and why is it that easy to create such account from your phone. The banks need to routinely change their security and confidential account openings procedures. |

walemoney007:Buba Marwa no even send them. |
We have been reading of this set-top boxes but we don't have an idea of how to get it or buy it. No advert on where to buy it |
But is it not we Nigerians that will still pay the tax for the companies. At the point of check out, the company will just add the required tax to the final payment, so we will end up paying the tax not the company. |
Technology Times has learnt that Mafab Communications Limited, winner of one of the two 5G licences sold Monday plans to launch a mobile network operator (MNO) in Nigeria by 2022. Mafab Communications Limited consortium led by Nigerian tycoon, Dr Musbahu Mohammad Bashir, Chairman of Althani Group counts high-net worth Nigerian investors including Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, ex Lagos State Governor and current National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC); Colonel Sanni Bello, former military Governor of Kano State among other investors, Technology Times can confirm authoritatively. Barring any last-minute change, Mafab plans to launch a greenfield MNO to roll out 5G service that will make the 5G auction winner Nigeria’s next MNO to compete with existing operators like MTN, Airtel, Glo, 9mobile, and nTel. mafab-backed-tinubu-launch-5g-network-2022mafab-backed-tinubu-launch-5g-network-2022 Dr Musbahu Mohammad Bashir, Chairman of Althani Group and lead promoter of the Mafab consortium is going ahead witn plan for an indigenous MNO, after the consortium won the 5G licence. Barring any last-minute change, Mafab plans to launch a greenfield MNO to roll out 5G service that will make the 5G auction winner Nigeria’s next MNO to compete with existing operators like MTN, Airtel, Glo, 9mobile, and nTel. Mafab’s MNO plan comes just as the consortium and MTN Nigeria, the largest MNO in Nigeria, won the two licences in 2.3GHz spectrum bands put up for sale by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) for deployment of 5G service, with each winner to pay $273,600,000 per licence. Yesterday’s 5G auction that raked in $547,200,000 for the Nigerian Government will also see MTN Nigeria shelling out an additional $15,900,000.00 after the MNO’s offer ranked higher than Mafab’s $11,120,000 to win the right to be assigned its spectrum lot out of the two licences at the assignment stage of the bids. Meanwhile, Technology Times has learnt that following the success of the Mafab consortium in the 5G auction, Bashir, the lead promoter of the consortium, who has always believed that there is to need to deepen local content and increase the participation of Nigerians in the telecoms industry has opened talks with U.S. and Chinese equipment suppliers to decide on the choice of equipment supplier for the planned MNO in Nigeria. “There is no plan to sell the Mafab 5G spectrum”, a source in the know of the group’s plan says on condition of anonymity citing that the investors are convinced that an indigenous company can still thrive in the Nigerian telecoms industry. Meanwhile, Prof. Umar Garba Danbatta, NCC Executive Vice Chairman of NCC who doubled as Auction Overseer following the outcome of the 5G auction, the provisional winners, Mafab and MTN are expected to pay the $273,600,000 winning bid price for each lot of 100 MHz TDD “are expected to pay the Winning Bid price, less the Intention-to-Bid Deposit, by February 24, 2022.” Danbatta says that the auction process was efficient, fair, credible, well-organised, and transparent and was designed to deliver the ideal outcome. The two winners emerged in a keenly contested that witnessed 11 rounds of bidding that lasted eight hours at the keenly-contested 3.5GHz Spectrum auction conducted by NCC in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja. In the first Round of the auction, the bid price was fixed at $199,374,000.00; $201,367,740.00 at second Round; $204,388,356.10 at third Round; $209,407,962.50 at fourth Round and $215,782,901.30 at the fifth Round. The auction prices increased progressively to $224,414,217.43 at the Sixth Round; $231,146,643.96 at the seventh Round; $240, 392,509.71 at the eighth Round; $251, 210,172.65 at the ninth Round; and $263,700,050.00 at the Round 10 of the auction exercise. The auction process reached its peak at Round 11 when the bid price graduated to $275,904,886.25 with all the three bidders still actively participating. The Main Stage of the Auction, however, ended at the conclusion of the 11th Round, with Airtel listing an exit bid of $270,000,000, while MTN posted an exit bid of $273,000,000, giving way to the Assignment Stage. At this point, Airtel had dropped off from the race having posted a lower exit bid, thus leaving Mafab and MTN as winners of the two available lots. At the end of the auction, Danbatta says the strongest bidders have emerged provisional winners, raising a substantial amount for the Federal Government. He congratulated the winners and thanked the Federal Government for its support and commitment to the deployment of 5G technology in Nigeria, which, he said, will bring substantial network improvements, including higher connection speed, mobility and capacity as well as low-latency capabilities to communications services in Nigeria. Sequel to the successful auction by the two winners, Danbatta said in line with the processes outlined in the IM, the provisional winners have proceeded to the Assignment Stage. According to Danbatta, “MTN Communications Nigeria Plc made an offer of $15,900,000 for the assignment of a preferred Lot, while Mafab Communications Limited made an offer of $11,120,000 for a preferred Lot. Thence, MTN Communications Nigeria Plc, having made the highest offer was given the right to select its most preferred Lot and it selected Lot 1 (3500-3600 MHz), while Lot 2 (3700-3800 MHz) is consequentially assigned to Mafab Communications Limited at no extra cost.” He thanks stakeholders, who have contributed to the success of the auction process saying that the huge investment that will accrue from the sales of the spectrum band auctioned will result in increased transformation in life and businesses.

I was surprised to see that Nigeria also abstained. |
The funds will be disbursed in six tranches over six months, with a 30-year tenor, and a 2-year moratorium at an interest rate of 9 percent.This looks more like a loan, since they have to pay back. |
mysticwarrior:Bros you try o. You remember Cynthia Rothrock, Above the Law... hmm |
Michealvegas:None for now. Something I've noticed is, most services offering unlimited are all fixed, such as the various Fibre offerings. What I currently use is Spectranet and i use them because they offer 100% data bonus on subscriptions on some days of the month. |
Michealvegas:Just checked on this. Its offered by cool links here in Lagos. The packages are interesting. My issue is the fixed dish installation. More info here: https://www.coollink.ng/konnect-nigeria/unlimited25/ |
Why don't you ask your provider if they have external antenna to help boost the signal. I think some of the ISP offer this option for low signal service. |
