Did you get a solution?

georgee:
I will upload pix if my PipulTV box inside the carton.. It is still for sale ooooo... Nairalandbuzz, epp me tell me ur friends who might be interested

mvem:
and why do you think Nigerian Scientists don't have the sample. The Science community is a global one just like in academia where knowledge is shared among scholars. The new virus is being studied all around the world by independent researchers, government funded researchers and private funded. WHO has shared its knowledge of the virus to all the countries of the world and research is going on in identifying more about the the Virus and creating a Vaccine...Lai Mohammed don't have to go and get the sample, the way you guyz talk here

rottennaija:
That's misplaced priority. First of all, how will they test the efficacy of their discoveries? And how will they know it works unless the have an infected patients or the sample of the virus to test it with? How will they get the virus sample to test? You will end of having people who work for their selfish interest thereby working against the interests of the general public.

This is an unworkable solution.

Why not call for the assembly of the best scientist and biochemist in Nigeria, give them a good lap, feed them, provide 24 hrs electricity with the best electronic gadgets and laboratory equipments and have them work together towards having a solution to the virus?

Common, who advises these people self? They need better advisers.

peeps4u:


You are not too smart.

The issue has been people watching with their data and not free data from 3500 as promised.

If you're not watching with free data from 9mobile, keep shut and dont come here again to shout sub is live.

How do you strongly claim sub is live when you said you're in canada while those in Nigeria are still lamenting of not being able to be activated?

georgee:

How more f*oolish can one appear?


A supposed grown up man like you still believed in this lie despite Ben's previous lies, promises and failures, and to even think you felt you coild mock people with the new announcement.

An intelligent person will rather be patient to see if Ben would deliver before this show of shame on this thread.

Shame!

Ishilove:

Thanks dear. What is paining me is I am on malaria meds and trekking upandan like a refugee

TheMan3:
you guys make a mistake of putting beauty of environment as priority as against humanity. What happens to the families of the millions that has just been rendered jobless by this small move? Do you know how many children that will drop out of school because of this?

Let's have love of humanity in our hearts first before anything. Nobody will love to do okada or Keke work everyday if they have jobs.

If we are to compare Lagos with Tokyo and newyork, does Lagos have well organised subway system? Are there functional high speed trains? What about monorails and trams? Are there jobs? What about social security, access to credit and business support system?

Bottom line, before the government brings a policy that will in one swoop render over a million people jobless, they should ensure the society is working.

These people are trying against all odds to put food of their table, and the same government that destroyed the society is still the same one opposing them. This Is sad.

Dont put beauty of the state before humanity.

Why Nigeria must switch to Compressed Natural Gas

Nigerians are said to be consuming about 45 million litres of fuel daily, while the nation’s major refineries could scarcely produce 12 million litres of the product. The development leaves the country with no option than to continue to import the product, which is currently facing serious constraints as a result of foreign exchange scarcity in the country. There is no doubt major consumption of fuel in the country is being borne by vehicles which have continued to increase in droves. The partial removal of fuel subsidy by the current government which saw increment in the pump price of fuel to N145 which is said to be unsustainable currently due to foreign exchange constraint and the economic recession in the country.

It is believed that one cheaper and cleaner energy source vehicle owners in Nigeria have not adequately explored is the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)in spite of huge deposits of gas in the country. Currently, Nigeria’s gas reserve has hit 190 trillion standard cubic feet. Compressed Natural Gas is a fossil fuel substitute for gasoline (petrol), diesel fuel or propane/LPG. Its combustion does produce greenhouse gases. It is a more environmentally clean alternative to petrol and diesel fuel, and much safer than other fuels in the event of a spill. The idea of using natural gas as fuel for vehicles is not new as there have been natural gas vehicles in Italy since the 1930s. There has also been a rapid growth of natural gas vehicles market in the last 10 years. Currently, 25 million natural gas vehicles are said to be circulating in the world consuming about 1000 billion cubic feet of gas annually. The growth in the use of natural gas for vehicles in the world hit 30% in the last three years. It is said that Compressed Natural Gas can earn the federal government over N200 billion from every one million cars converted into CNG from petrol engine.

Compressed Natural Gas for vehicles was launched in Nigeria in 1989 with two small compressors and dispensers installed in Warri and Lagos. Twenty-five vehicles were converted to run on natural gas but this was inadequate to meet the demand. In 2007, the Nigerian Independent Petroleum Company (NIPCO) Plc got licence to operate Compressed Natural Gas business in the country. Thus the company diversified into Compressed Natural Gas refilling facilities in partnership with the Nigeria Gas Company for the deployment of CNG in the country, which resulted in the establishment of Green Gas Limited. Managing Director, Nigerian Independent Petroleum Company (NIPCO) Plc, Mr Venkataraman Venkatatapathy, advised motorists to embrace the use of CNG as alternative to petrol as well as lower operating cost. “On mile to mile basis, CNG will be cheaper than petrol by over 50 percent and as compared to diesel (on dual fuel mode) it will be over 45 percent. "To replace 20 percent of current petrol consumption of Nigeria, natural gas requires is less than 4 percent of the total domestic gas consumed currently and less than 0.5 percent of the current gas production.

Foreign exchange saved will be close to $2 billion." He also said the use of CNG has social and environmental benefits to Nigerians compared to other energy sources. Some motorists, who spoke with our correspondent, confirmed the benefits of the CNG since they switched over to it. Femi Adeyemi, a commercial bus driver, who plies Ibadan route, said he needed the sum of N2,600 to fill his tank from Lagos to his destination. This was a far cry from the N7,000 fuel he buys to run his journey. Oluwole Obasa, a truck driver spends the sum of N6,500 to fill his tank from Ibafo to Ilorin compared to N21,000 he spends on fuel. Today, Obasa and Adeyemi are counting their gains in the last two years of migrating to Compressed Natural Gas, but the company is still not satisfied with the level of consumption of CNG in Nigeria.

The recent involvement of one of the subsidiary companies of one of Nigeria’s billionaires, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, in the CNG business in the country which was anticipated to be a game changer has not really put paid to the popularity and consumption of the gas in Nigeria with over 170 million population Sagas, a division of Borkir Energy Company Limited, a subsidiary of Dangote Group recently signed a 20-year sales and purchase agreement with the Nigeria Gas Company Limited (NGC) to supply and distribute the CNG to all its filling stations nationwide. ‎Stakeholders are of the opinion that inadequate investments in the CNG project in the country, cost of conversion kits as well as harsh regulatory environment are the low points of the use of CNG in the country.

They recommended that government should consider liberalising the process of licensing of CNG in the country, saying the development would earn more revenue for the government as well as create job opportunities for more Nigerians thereby narrowing the poverty level in the country . General Manager of NIPCO Plc, Rajesh Prabhu, expressed the need to have a special price for natural gas to encourage investors in CNG to deepen the market in the country. He said 10 percent of imported vehicles should be on natural gas, while the cost of conversion kits should be critically looked into. He also advocated the need for the federal government to boost gas infrastructure in the country.

To former president Olusegun Obasanjo, inadequate promotion for the CNG was responsible for the low and unimpressive consumption of CNG in the country He therefore advocated the need for paradigm shift in the attention given to CNG, adding that the development has economic benefits and would reduce unfriendly automobile emissions and exposure of Nigerians to the innovation of powering vehicles on gas.

Where's is here?

Offpoint:
That's how I bought airtel line last year from their office, registered the line and went home. Two days later, I decided to register whatsapp with the line, that evening that's how I received whatsapp message.

A guy threatening me, telling me I stole his one month old 2 weeks ago and I even have the guts to start using the phone with his sim.

He threatened me with God, Ogun, sango, Poseidon, Hades, Odin, Amadioha, police, army... dude literally threatened me with everything he could.

I tried convincing him it's a new sim I just bought and was even surprised receiving his message cuz I've not given that number out yet.

The guy wasn't listening, after threats he was even begging I returned his phone cuz he saved for over a year to get that phone and he only used it for 2 weeks.

It wasn't until I showed him the sim card with the number on it before he believed me.

I was so pissed I call Airtel Care Deck and served them their own portion of what the guy served me... still not satisfied: I headed straight to their office and served them deserts.

Imagine if I was caught with such line in public, how will I convinced them that I didn't steal the guy's phone?

Re-assigning SIM is really dangerous.
