Stay there... do you hear the story of the terrorist who got arrested and his Iphone needs to unlock for investigation??.
Iphone Inc. Refuses to unlock that phone till today cos it's against the human right law, u cannot intrude someone's privacy without their approval, weda boko haram or anybody.
A phone maker is different from a network provider who got licence issued to it by the laws of the land, to operate in the country and has to be guided by the laws of the land.

BusinessConsumer Protection Council Orders Dstv To Compensate Consumers by nickxtra(op): 4:53pm On Feb 21, 2016
The Consumer Protection Council (CPC) has ordered MultiChoice Nigeria Limited in the provision of its Digital Satellite Broadcast Television (DStv) to compensate consumers within 90 days and introduce toll-free lines to them, following confirmation of its investigations on allegations of violations of consumer rights. Consequently, the Council in Abuja yesterday directed DStv to release of free-to-air channels, even when subscription expires; compensation consumers across board for lost viewing time and reasonable equitable spread of popular sports channels, among others. Director General of CPC, Mrs. Dupe Atoki, expressed optimism that compliance with these reforms would bring about a new dawn for Nigerian consumers, who would henceforth enjoy value for money in their engagement with the company. Atoki reiterated the Council’s commitment towards sanitising the nation’s market-place for the benefit of consumers, assuring that no stone would be left un-turned to ensure it is no longer business as usual and shoddy service delivery becomes a thing of the past in the country. According to her, “During the course of our investigations, the Council observed that the company’s billing system, whereby “billing is not contemporaneous with the provision of service” was not in the best interest of consumers and therefore ordered MultiChoice to install a billing system that ensures billing starts with the provision of service” She said that the pay-television company was also ordered to within 90 days provide across board compensation to its subscribers, considering the fact that many of them have over time lost legitimate and paid viewing time by its conduct of not restoring service contemporaneously after payment as well as other instances of disruptions. MultiChoice was ordered to keep local and free-to-air channels open so that subscribers would have the opportunity of watching these channels, even when their subscriptions have expired. DSTv was also instructed to present written assurances in line with Section 10 of the Council’s enabling law that it will not engage in any conduct which is detrimental to the interest of consumers. In the same vein, the company shall for 18 months from the date of the orders, subject its processes to the Council’s inspection to ensure compliance with the directives contained in the orders. Similarly, the company was also directed by CPC to within 180 days adopt a “technology that supports suspension of service when subscribers are otherwise unable to enjoy their service on account of being away for a limited period of time”, provided such a request for suspension of service is done for a period of between 7 to 14 days and not more than twice in a year with a 72-hour notice to MultiChoice. On non-availability of popular channels in certain bouquets, the Council ordered the firm to within 90 days ensure “a reasonably equitable spread of popular sports and other channels hitherto concentrated in its premium bouquet over all available bouquets”. In order to aid easy and fast access to the company by subscribers who wish to make complaints or enquiries, CPC directed MultiChoice not only to maintain local toll-free telephone access lines for its call centres, but should also ensure the call centres operate for longer hours during public holidays and weekends. MultiChoice was also directed to formulate within 90 days a written compensation policy which should “outline amongst other things, the procedure for compensating subscribers for injury they suffer on account of MultiChoice conduct and take into consideration not just viewing time lost, but inconveniences suffered by subscribers”. The Council further directed MultiChoice to “develop a Customer Care Manual which shall contain mechanisms to address customer complaints in an accurate, friendly, timely, efficient, courteous and honest manner”. It was also directed to ensure that the list of all its accredited dealers and installers and their details be freely given to its customers at the point of subscription and also made available on its website and other information channels. In addition, the pay-media company is not only to ensure these accredited dealers and installers carry certified means of identification issued by it, subscribers must also be periodically educated on the means of identification, while it should also reasonably and adequately compensate subscribers where they experience loss of signal on account of faulty, poor or unprofessional installation by agents of MultiChoice. On the pay-television firm’s agreements with its subscribers, the Council disclosed that several provisions of the Service Level Agreement and the Terms and Conditions of Subscription signed on by subscribers were found to be grossly unfair, unjust and one-sided, directing that such provisions should be expunged, re-drafted and submitted to the

FamilyRe: Should A Baby Sleep Under A Ceiling Fan And On Cold Floor Ties? by nickxtra(op): 7:40pm On Feb 18, 2016
RiloKiley:
Isn't she a bit too old to be sleeping in a crib, just saying? Like chidoks said, let her sleep beside u on the bed. You guys can sleep naked since the weather is so hot , but not on the tiled floor. It does not retain heat and will remove all the warmth from the baby which can lead to pneumonia. Then there's the risk of her inhaling dust and getting bitten by crawling insects. Then body and joint pains. Bad idea generally.

Keep her in your bed, let her sleep inside while u sleep outside so if she wants to sneak out u will know. Also rub her baby dusting powder to keep her cool.
Cheers.
Thanks for valuable comment

It's really not a good idea, the courts have declared him "wanted", not " guilty" those terms are not interchangeable in law. They should push for trying him in absential not sieze properties if they're wise. There are legal repercussions to such.

It's because of the hot weather. She sleeps on her crib, but goes down on her own and sneakes into the living room to sleep on the floor. She always refuse any attempt to take her up from the floor.

PoliticsI Will Support You Till Death, Edo State Former Governor Tells Gov. Oshiomhole by nickxtra(op): 3:07pm On Feb 18, 2016
A former governor of the defunct Mid-West region and Bendel State, Samuel Ogbemudia, has pledged to support Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State for the rest of his life, saying Mr. Oshiomhole had transformed the south south state.
“I will continue to work with you until my grave,” Mr. Ogbemudia was quoted by the governor’s spokesperson, Peter Okhiria, as saying on Wednesday.
He made the pledge when Mr. Oshiomhole the former governor at his residence in Benin.
“I have withdrawn my membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), so, I am at home as a non-political, non-partisan politician. But every human being is a political animal, and I cannot say I have left politics.
“But as I have said, I have been with you from the day you started helping me when I was Minister of Labour. That day I called you, and you asked me, ‘What do you want me to do for you?’ and I said, ‘I don’t want strike throughout my tenure’, and you said, ‘we were elected to cause you discomfort, and if I don’t do it again, it means I am failing in my duty.’ I said, ‘No, you won’t fail.’ And throughout my tenure there was no strike and we worked well together.
“So, as you have come here, I didn’t see any other way to thank you than to make sure I work with you, and I will continue to work with you until my grave.”
Speaking on the issue of job creation, Mr. Ogbemudia said: “Since the oil price is dwindling, our future now lies on agric. I think anybody living today, and cannot find a white collar job, can get two or three of these ponds, mobile or earth ponds, and produce fish that will give you at least half a million every six months. There is somebody I know who has about two hundred of those ponds. If Edo people handle it, it can produce enough fish for export for the country.”


In his remarks, Governor Oshiomhole paid tributes to the former two-time governor for his exemplary leadership in the State and the inspiration he has provided for humanity.
“I have come to pay you an official visit. There is no Edo man of my age who does not have a kind place in his heart on account of the solid foundation that God used you to lay for our state.
“Now occupying the office, I see what is happening. I am appreciative the more that your solid foundation you laid, you did out of your conviction; they reflect the purity of your heart, and your genuine commitment to uplifting the quality of life of our people.
“So, whatever you did, you did, not because you needed votes. You did because in your heart believed that your people deserved good governance and that government must lay solid foundation, build infrastructure, address all of the issues that you did, set up institutions, encourage people to go to farms, set up technical schools, and in fact, I can’t list them. Even you cannot remember all of the actions.
“And to imagine that you did them as a military man, the people of my generation cannot but appreciate and salute your leadership and exemplary leadership. Even under the military, you were concerned about my personal wellbeing.
So, sir, you have always been there for me, even in my days in labour. And I am very happy. I decided to come this time in a more formal way than I have done in the past.”
According to Governor Oshiomhole: “Your decision to withdraw from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and remain a father of all of us, even as you remain politically concerned about the future of our state, but without being so on a partisan platform, for us, it is yet another example. I have come to congratulate you on your decision. I believe all of us will learn from you. You are still mentally alert, and available to reflect on issues around us, and to proffer advice and suggestions to the stewards of the State.
“May God continue to lead you as a shining example of how we can find peace and relevance beyond the bounds of partisan politics. So, today it is basically to congratulate you for that laudable decision that you have taken. And may God grant you much longer life, good health, more wisdom, and never be tired to advise the government of the day.”
