I did not say that poor maintenance culture is a good trait.

But the fact remains that most Nigerians have very poor maintenance culture!
That's correct. That's why European cars are often viewed as problematic lot.
I watched a program where a,jaguar built in the 70s had more electronic gizmo than the average Toyotas of the 2000.
I quite understand your point though

Las las,anything wey u see, just take it and bounce. No need to dey form Rambo or else na jail go be your portion
A man got info that someone was straffing his beloved wife in his bedroom. Dude teamed up with his bro and stormed his house when the unfortunate mofo was around digging his wife and cut the guy like suya meat.
He was arrested and was heard saying he is happy that he has send the mofo to hell but i know by now he will be regretting. You can. Also ask Mrs sanni how she feels now.
My advice to any man... When shit hits the fan, just bounce. There are other sweet women out there. Life is too sweet to get locked up on death row as Rambo

The diligent man will stand before kings and not ordinary men.

She was at work by 6.30am and meet the governor. That is commitment, dedication, diligence and patriotism in a state with so much insecurity. She deserves commendation

I salute her courage.
This sums it up aptly.
I would have used her example in my training /seminar for some bankers but it occurred after my training.

Any car that cannot take abuse is on t suitable for Nigerian roads and Nigerians because an average Nigerian has very poor maintenance culture!
As if that is a good trait. An abused car is functioning below optimal level. Imagine nigerians removing thermostat in a vehicle undecided

Lol
So sorry about what the car put you through then
I can never buy any Honda products with what people say about that car, my uncle enjoys repairing that fvcking car all the time. Maybe he was destined to use that car lol
Hope your present car is not giving you stress at all. And what's the type?
Well you will be forgiven in your sterotypical thought pattern since you have not bought a car or even used a Honda,brand.
Honda goes head to head in competition with the toyotas in the US and Canada. Go and find out.
They build great engines.
The only thing to note is that Honda dont take abuse. Give it the right parts and fluid and you are good to go.
Some of the models were recalled for particular factory errors. (Transmission).. The accord and civic of 2000 to 2003 models suffered transmission issues. Toyota also had several recalls, more than Honda sef.
So dont base your opinion on hearsay. Do research and get hard facts and evidence.
Uncle Tom has been rocking his baby boy since 2008 and it is still in pristine condition. The man is legendary for maintaining cars sha.
The bull dog is also rugged. The op probably bought an abused one, a lemon or he was terrible at maintenance.

Nigerians are quite funny.
Nigerians would speak all the English on social media on why 30k min wage is very necessary and why 19,800 is too small but do very little or nothing to increase the countrys income.

Nigerians would be the ones asking for capital project across the country knowing fully well more than 70% of our income is spent on recurrent expenditure but would still scream when the govt decides to collect loan to fund those capital projects.

Oil price today remains below par to service the demands of Nigeria but Nigerians won't factor in every necessary stakes in the economy before making decisions, they are only concerned about what affects them, how they can collect from govt and bring nothing in return.

Yes politicians are corrupt and bad but Nigerians are worst.

Only a weed smoker can rule this country cos every body is mad that's why yaradua is seen as the best president...
I truly wonder how you reason! It is mind boggling!
In the other thread, you were saying it is right for the nigeria police to abandon the supposed corpse of bsndits killed..
Now to this thread.
There are lots of ways to raise fund for this country.
Reduce the cost of governance.
Cut down foreign trips
Reduce bogus salaries and allowance of those in governsnce. Nigerian senators are the highest paid.
Instead of bicameral house why not unicameral.
All this expensive cars and furniture for political officers should be scrapped.
The list is endless.

I lost a secondary school classmates who's an airforce on the 6th of January this year to bandits attack in birnin gwari.
Now an inspector also lost his life in the operation.

God please protect our armed forces, Nigeria has suffered enough to banditry already ..

they'll be mistaking if they think your an idiot.
Even an idiot knows you are an idiot .

You expect the nigeria police to carry the dead body of the bandits away from the forest for befitting burial abi?
Use your skull atleast if you don't have brain..
That is the stsndard thing to do. Carry the corpse, carry out investigation on them to unravel their identity, tbeir ties with society and maybe other members at large. That is what a competent police force would do.
But you guys are used to mediocrity that's why it sound strange to you.

I agree with you. We have to be careful with these clearance sales. Some of them are now more expensive than brand new items in the market.
Intact i am no more buying this fairly used not because they are not good but because Nigerian business men are unscrupulous, greedy and heartless. They would rather bring a dead item so that they can maximize profits.
I will stick with LG/Samsung or if i am on a tight budget, Hisense brand new. If i was in lagos i could have taken the risk in buying a fairly used TV after doing due diligence

Well here is the advice of an older person. Let her get hers first. Then you can get your later.
Let the,better and stronger car go to her. Put this in consideration. If you need advice on cars to get, quote me or go to car section and create a thread.

Technology MarketRe: My Experience Buying A Used TV by nams77: 7:38pm On Jan 30, 2020
Sellfish:
So i decided to upgrade my old 37- inch LED TV to a bigger, newer, and better one....My budget was 150k and I didn't care if it was used or new...I sha wanted it at least 10 inches bigger, better and newer than my old one

The major things I was looking out for were:

Low power consumption....if the TV's operating power consumption is more than 50 watts, I am not buying grin .....I use an inverter so I don't need any yeye TV that will suck my power unnecessarily....I borrowed a watt meter from my nigga to check power consumption as I already knew I cant trust the power rating on TV labels.

Screen mirroring.....I used to think USB playback on a TV was a very big deal until I went to this my uncle's house and saw his son play a full 1080p movie via his phone mirrored to their 60 inch TV...There was no loss in Quality of picture or sound...The mirroring was perfect in all aspects..I then made a mental note that my next TV was gonna have that...Screen mirroring or nothing tongue

HEVC video format playback capability and also ability to read SRT movie subtitle files....Basically 95% of all the TVs I had seen and operated including my old LG cannot play movies in HEVC format or even read SRT movie subtitle files angry....That meant I basically had to do a laptop hdmi connection whenever I needed to read movie subtitles and/or play hevcs movie....Too stressful...Life should not be this hard undecided
...So I needed a TV that could play anything playable via USB.. as in anything playable...My HDMI should be strictly for my Playstation grin

Very good Color accuracy...I can see very well...one doctor said I have 20/20 vision...So I get very irritated if i have to look at a bad screen...exact reason why i stopped personally using laptops with less than 1920×1080p resolution grin...So I needed a TV with a good color accuracy, deep blacks, nice viewing angles and sturvs...I needed my new TV to be almost as clear as my 1080p laptop screen grin....

Backlight dimming option....I hate having my screens too bright...So my new TV had to have an optional backlight setting....Many TVs i operated didn't have this feature....So their screens ended up being too bright and wasting power...reducing TV backlights reduces eye strain and the TV's power consumption drastically...I cannot come and go and buy something that will damage my near perfect eyesight...never tongue

Nice Upscaling capabilities....I needed a TV that will make even a 200mb movie reasonably watchable on it ..my old TV and many others I had seen did horribly in upscaling...so I made a mental note about that as well smiley

Other stuff I needed in the new TV was at least 3 USB one of which must be USB 3.0, 4 HDMI, memory card slot, ethernet port, functional Wifi, and an acceptable sound output...I cannot buy TV and come and go and be looking for soundbar to buy angry....Of what use is a TV if it has pangolo sound... huh


And i needed the new TV to be at least 55 inches...I kept extra 30k to add to the 150k in case
I wish you can carry out this kind of due diligence by assisting me to get a smart TV. Lol. I am in the south and confused about getting a new hisense or used tv

tetralogyfallot:
Wow! This is such an interesting expository. I also remembered when I was yearning to change my 150watts led TV to an energy saver one. But thank God at last I got the best TV when it comes to low power consumption, good picture quality, screen mirror, smartness, play every movie format including SRT subtitles, very good sound quality, inbuilt satellite receiver for free to air which am watching as am typing this piece, it also has a playback when your hard drive is connected to it this feature makes me to pause live programs and even rewind them and can even save them if I like. The power consumption is just 34watts which is the least I've ever seen on a 43 inch t.v, the model is LG 43LH604v. U can never go wrong by choosing this t.v.
Wow. Are u saying with a satellite TV you got to watch mbc 2 channels free?
If so, i made an error when i bought my last TV. Should have gotten a satellite TV then.

chival:
Your destiny is in your hands. Rise up and take it. People with a lot less than you have, have been known to make it. Determination is key. Take these steps.
1. First off rise from the bed of self pity. Leave your past in the past and don't look back. You are all you need to be happy and to succeed. Tell yourself that a hundred times a day if need be.
2. Channel your energies into developing yourself. Are there skills you possess that could stand you out? Develop them.
3. Determine what your goal is and take steps towards that.
4. Finally, if you are a Christian, pray. Develop a close relationship with God. Talk to him as you would a friend. Tell him to show you what to do and how to go about it. Consult God for every single thing. He actually answers. I know this from my own experience.
The future is waiting and it's bright. Claim it now.
Young bro, i wanted to say something but this above post enscapsulate everything.
There are only two forces that can't fail or disappoint you. God and yourself. That's all you got. Stand up and fight for your dreams and unborn kids

FamilyRe: How Do I Take Back The Custody Of My Child From My Wife? by nams77: 8:43pm On Jan 23, 2020
Dsimple:
Well, although you may not understand but I made a covenant with God while I was praying one night when I was very poor and had no hope that if God can give me a sustainable source of income which is more than enough to take care of my own feeding, I promised to get married. When I thought the prayers was answered was when I traveled out and that was the exact time that my ex broke up with me and she was the only one available at the time.
Yes, I was naive to trust someone I met on social media, it was a mistake all single guys should learn from. Take note!!!
Again, she was hopeless and considering taking her own life, in fact she only confided in me cos we met online and she thought we will never meet. I MARRIED HER OUT OF PITY.

To also answer the guy that suggests I must be an angel that had no faults whatsoever, the truth is, we started having problems when she woke me up in the middle of the night one day asking me to promise her she will be the only wife I'm going to marry, without thinking twice knowing full well that she's got spiritual companions and I don't know if they are around to witness my response, I vehemently told her that I can marry as many as I want since our religion allowed that.

Also, immediately we got married, she gave me her two SIM cards and requested I get her another Sim cards without pressuring her to it, this won my heart that she doesn't have the mindset to cheat on me. I was wrong....

Last year was when I got to know she has boyfriend, what I don't know is if she's been sleeping with them.
Among her boyfriend is or was my landlord whom I have his phone number and who never knew her as my wife, the day she packed out was when I knew because the man posted her pictures on his whatshapp status with some heartbreaking words and when I confronted him he apologized that she was the one who called him and offered him the chance for them to date but they are yet to go down.

Secondly, there was a guy she do call her uncle, he works at the ministry of interior in Abuja where we stays but was not present when we had our wedding. She'd once told me that the man is her mother's younger brother which I believed but when she travelled, she left one of her SIM card and I slot it in a phone one day to get a phone number from it, I was so surprised to see numerous messages from this man saying he loves her and some romantic words, I held my calm until she came back cos I don't want to cause another quarrel while she's with her mother.
When I asked her to tell me the relationship between Mr Dapo of the ministry of interior, she maintained her earlier stance that he's her uncle, then I asked if he's her father younger brother or mother, she replied her mother then I laughed and said have you forgotten that your mother is from Ogun state and Dapo is from Ibadan in Oyo state and she was short of words.

So I ordered that I will change her SIM card which she replied by telling me "them no born your mother well to change my SIM card" as usual people came to settle us and that I think is the reason she packed out. Aside that, until she ran out of the house, we had no other quarrels but she told her mum that I slapped her which is far from the truth.
Focus on your life. E no pass so

“Question those in favour of Amotekun. Most have but the vaguest notion about it. They know few details yet vigorously attribute to its opponents the most negative intentions. Ask those who oppose Amotekun. They are equally ignorant of its provisions. They oppose the initiative not on its merits but merely because it was proposed by their political opponents or because they don’t see an avenue for personal gain from it.
