Business / Re: Police Return N9.9million To Owner After It Was Mistakenly Transferred To POS by Naijaepic: 8:14am On Mar 15
I wanted to agree with you initially, but hey, this is Nigeria.

Utility bill is not something you change every three months interval, someone might have open bank account 10 years ago without updating his/her address to the current address (old utility with old address might be on the account)

For phone number and email , it might not exist on the said account.

For sms alert, I know quite number of people that instructed their bank not send sms notification, for whatever reasons.


fidelmarshal199:
The tragedy is that it took the Nigerian Police force 3 months to locate someone with an active bank account and bvn. It won't take fbi more than 2 minutes to detect the location of the person.



Actually, the process isn't really complicated just that our policemen are too lazy. Merely taking a police report to the bank, the bank will print the utility bill the customer submitted which will probably display the address of the customer and also provide the phone number and emails. It's as easy as eating a banana

Business / Re: Unilever Ghana Has Relocated Its Tea Production To Nigeria by Naijaepic: 8:39am On Mar 14
Read this book, "The confession of Economy Hit man.

There's a grand scheme to ensure that third world or developing countries wealth are spend at large scale on projects that have less impact on their people. Most of those projects require taking loan from international agencies, this ensures that generations unborn will be indebted.

It is part of the plan to always ensure the wicked among us will be supported to hijack leadership position.



RepoMan007:
Ghana is slightly ahead of Nigeria in the destructive path we both towing economically.

They have used future cocoa to borrow and squandered the funds on frivolities.

Heard Nigeria has resumed construction of evil rail line to Niger republic again. That's a govt that was printing money to pay salaries two months ago. It s like Nigeria/Africa is under a spiritual cabal that secure the loyalty of whoever gets elected one way or another.
I don't know what that rail will serve to do if not to take resources out of African faster.

One thing missing is the fact, India as whole have civilization that span over two millennium, common language, common religion believe, though segregated into class, that ensure by virtual of birth, someone can be in the lowest of subhuman class.

If you look around, you will see manufacturing companies that had span 1000 of years, yet using same manual method.

Here in Nigeria, nothing bind people together, culturally, religiously and politically.

Meanwhile, fellow colony Nigeria is still here collecting food donations from Ukraine angry

So it’s their word against OP. It’s a case of “he said “ , “she said “ , “she didn’t say “ . Op can say the money was transfered to his account as a loan which he has promptly repaid with evidence. It’s all word of mouth at this point . No evidence . The law is based on fact and evidence. It’s a lesson for everyone , even if na your brother , make sure you put pen to paper and sign with witnesses as well. It’s hard to defend cases without evidence . Op would likely win in court .
Foreign Affairs / Re: Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger Confirm Plan To Form New Confederation by Naijaepic: 8:50am On Feb 16
For the Electricity part, I think Nigeria will suffer most, here is the reason.

River Niger run across over 5 countries in West Africa, include both of our neighbours countries, such as Benin, Niger and Mali.

Remember, this is a natural resources that any countries can construct Hydro dam on it course within their geographical area.

So, it just matter of time, when Niger, our close neighbouring country construct Hydro dam on it course. it will definitely have adverse effect on our usage in Nigeria.

Don't forget, River Niger on which Kanji Hydro power station sat on past through Niger.

The country can as build hydro dam on it, which imply less water flow to Kanji dam.

There's reason it was collective agreed to have the hydro build at on section of the River Niger.

River Niger span more than 4 countries and each country can not be allowed to build dam on it course.

Career / Re: I Am Approaching 40 And Am Scared My Dreams Are Not Realistic by Naijaepic: 10:15am On Apr 29, 2023
I went back to university at above 35, (official age).

Graduate few months to 40th.
Been self learning Python streak, when it was not popular in Nigeria tech space (everyone was in developing Web applications with php).
I had close friend then that anyway tell me, what can you build with Python (in reference to Web, he is a PHP guy)

Got remote intern almost a year after graduation (stipend of 50k/month)
Almost a year later, got full time job that paid above 700k, but today same job is paying me above a million as monthly salary.

My advice, it not age, age is just a number, it is a mindset that can change your destiny.

Do not wallow in self pity. Girdle your bet and pursue your dreams.

PS: between when I finished university and get my first intern role, life was at the lowest ebb for me, to pay house rent, I went to Abuja, meet a long time person, I explain that am in dire need of money to pay house rent, but I make sure I did not beg to be given the money for free, I told I will work as labourer on his farm, the person have farm outside Gwagalada.
I stayed in the farm for 3 months doing all sorts of odd job, the day I was tasked with removing dead snails from its shell (no body on the farm was eager to do it, but been a who am I, I do it anyway). It is that night, I told myself, I will pursue my dream.


Modified:
Yes, what work for Mr A, might not work for Mr B. for people saying if you have married, it won't work, I completely disagree, I already married with two kids, when I took decision to go back to university.


My university certificate has nothing or little to do with my job opportunities, but for documentation, yes I was asked for it.

Good day Nairalanders
I will be 40 on Oct 19 this year and I am scared the kind of life I have always desired may not be
achievable. Let me list these things that worries me so that you can probably advise me or assist me in achieving any of them.
1) By 40 I had wished I will be living in my house with cars in my garage
Current situation- I am a salary earner who eagerly waits for the salary to drop before my family can eat conveniently every month.
2)I love cars and driving. Was thinking of getting a good car for Uber business.
Current situation- I have not been able to gather enough money to buy a car for Uber or personal use.
3)Seeking greener pasture abroad.
Current situation- I have not been able to have enough disposable income to even get a passport to start with in the first place.
4)Self development. I had interest in programming so I decided to learn coding and all that. I started with free code camp and also this thread by iyenimofe on nairaland has been so helpful https://www.nairaland.com/1383359/learn-web-design-live-nairaland/6#17571611
The issue I have progressing is that of enough data subscription to watch more tutorials.
5)Acquisition of at least Masters.
I have a passion for learning and self development but I struggled to have my HND with distinction. Gathering enough funds to start my masters program has been an uphill task.

Little about my background
I am an HND graduate
I have a sister who am responsible for also.
I have a wife and two kids.
I work 8-5weekdays

Education / Re: UNILORIN Set To Introduce Train, Electric Bus Services by Naijaepic: 4:25pm On Apr 20, 2023
Looking at cost of the train infrastructure and number of mass that will eventually use this means of transportation, i.e train transport , I don't think it is a viable alternative.

REMEMBER, academic environment is seasonal, that's there are peak and low periods, throughout a year, school will went on break atleast for 2 months, also, ASUU can be on strike for more than 6month or even more.

So, an infrastructure of such magnitude will not be use adequate, except if FG will be paying the university whatever lost incurred.

Romance / Re: Is Light The Fastest Object In the Universe? by Naijaepic: 8:03pm On Apr 05, 2023
is this just a rambling or you have evidence to back uop assumption.

in one sentence, you claimed that you are not physicist, in followup sentence, you put forward some assumption without evidence.

helinues:
I do not think so. Though I am not a scientist nor a physicist but with my little understanding about cosmos, there are other objects faster than light.

In quantum physics, if you divided one element into 2 and place it far from each other. Let's say one at Milky way galaxy and the other at the Andromeda Galaxy, whatever effects you make on the one in Milky way would instantly affect the one in Andromeda. Such instant connection should be faster than light.

Black hole, the gravity of a black hole is so strong that light can't penetrate through the event horizon, meaning the speed at which it's spinning could be faster than the speed of light.

Also when you consider the journey of neutrino reaching earth from such great distance, the speed could also be faster than light.

Not sure of this if this is the right section though

Do you lived in Lagos?

Though it may not necessarily be the order of the day to spent upto hours in traffic, but on some occasions, it can happen.

Let me give you an instant from memories, the year is around 2002/2003, on that faithful day, closing for Lectures at FCET, Akoka, around 3pm, head to Jibowu/fadeyi bustop, on getting there, there is heavy standstill traffic inward from Surulere and extend towards Onipanu. After standing and pursuing all coming bus in spite of those filled up with normal Lagos face of people hanging, I decide to move to the next bustop, and from next bustop on the next until I get to Anthony, Maryland, ikeja, but in all this, the main express road, all feeders Road was in total lock down, the causes or the source of that traffic jam no one can explain,

There's some days in Lagos, someone will spent upto 6/7 hours in transit.

Pls learn to read and digest properly!! Are u saying u agree that someone could travel from Ikeja to Ajah and be stuck in traffic for over 6hrs

There are way huge planets either in our solar system that are multiple bigger than earth, aside probably pluto (not anymore recognised as member of our solar system), Mars and uranus that are smaller in size compared to earth, other planet are bigger.
Jupiter is size ten multiple of earth size.

Moving out of our solar system, there are millions of solar systems within our immediate Galaxy, the milky-way, yet to be explored full, talk less of discovery all the planets within each solar system, then we're are yet to talk about billion of galaxy adorned the sky above.
So in all this, the possibility is can be better imagine.
