Politics / Re: Who Can Lead The PDP Back To Aso Rock? by nkowaputa(m): 9:36pm On Aug 29, 2017
MrPolitics:
it isn't an easy thing to defeat a ruling party, especially in a country like Nigeria.

it took 16 years and a coalition of heavy opposition political parties and individuals to defeat PDP as a ruling party

by 2019, APC would have spent 4 years in power and might still be considered "fresh" by th nigerian electorate

but, if possible, which of the political heavyweights in the PDP do you think can fly the party ticket to victory?


1. Goodluck Jonathan
Former President Jonathan is eligible for 1 more term as the senate bill to prohibit him hasn't been passed. he still has a huge following especially in the south east and south south

2. Sule Lamido
Former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido is a popular politician in the north.

3. Ibrahim Dankwambo
Governor of Gombe State. he's believed to be a fresh young and competent

4. David Mark
Former Senate President.

5. Ayo Fayose
Governor of Ekiti State. he's believed to be the main face of the opposition, and his constant criticism of PMB has gained him a lot of popularity and attention nationwide

even besides those on this list. who in the PDP now, do you think can defeat the PDP in 2019

PETER OBI AND ANYBODY FROM MIDDLEBELT.

Politics / Re: 10 Things Nigerians No Longer Talk About by nkowaputa(m): 9:08pm On Aug 16, 2017
judondasylva:
Some things Nigerians No longer Talk About ....

1.No one talks about where our President is ( we've all accepted our fate of being ruled by a president residing in London. Maybe, Arsenal FC would sign him incase Laccazete fails).

2. No one talks about MMM ( their fate is solely in their hands)...

3. No one talks about Evans ( wherever he is now , no one knows and no one cares to know. he was probably watching Real madrid's match last night while sipping a coffee )

4. No one talks about all the recovered loots / funds . ( where is the whole money hiding )....?

5 . No one talks about Dasuki gate and his chronology of looters....

6. No one talks about the so many Dollars recovered from Whistle blowing avenue and the one Wike was claiming ownership ( hancha adago mmiri now ).....the whole whistle have suddenly rusted and can't make any more sound....

7. No one talks about the payment of 5k stipend to the jobless youth as promised by The APC government....

8. No one talks about Steady light in Nigeria anymore...(better go buy your own generator and scamper for petrol.)

9. No one talks about petrol price going back to normal 65naira or even 96 naira before they removed the fuel subsidy and we all shouted ," Eureka....... Anyone can now import fuel and the price would soon crash like the walls of Jerico....( how many have you imported or anyone from your kindred ).......143/ltr pricing cemented

10. No one talks about where the removed fuel subsidy money delved ....( guess all roads and infrastructures have been fixed )
.....i told them, the only reasonable thing and direct impact this so called government gives to her citizenry was payment of subsidy, atleast, we could buy petrol at a cheaper price and keep powering our houses at least to charge our mobile phones........
During subsidy, it was alleged that some individuals/cabals loot via it but atleast, we were sharing in the loot by buying at cheaper rate, Now, it's been removed and the looting is exponentially transformed .

....
Oh my God....how did we get to this level.... Scam is even little to say the least....
Add more because i'm sure they are still many...

People are too hungry to talk these days.

The figure can't be that high, unless some people are helping themselves also

How can it not reach when idle plane parked is £4000 per day. That is £400000 as at today. Then other logistics beside the hospital bill.

If and only if your children were students in LAUTECH. the 2 state governments are incapacitated financially yet you could send the children of your cronies to Ukraine with Osun state fund?

Travel / Re: Video: 2 Algerian Pilots Have Been Suspended For Letting A 10-yr-old Fly A Plane by nkowaputa(m): 2:34pm On Aug 03, 2017
Sleyanya1:
Trust me the experienced pilots already knew they'd be suspended or worse, notwithstanding they made a decision to help someone achieve his Dream.


P.S: It was under their instructions and supervision.

I strongly think they made a good decision.

God bless them.
I once watched a documentary on a plane crash. A pilot allowed his 2 children "pilot" the aircraft in turn while he and 3 other pilots watched/supervised. Something went wrong and the plane crashed.
The good father killed not just his children but other 159 passengers on board.

Search for " passengers pay attention " on Facebook and watch other air mishaps and investigation reports

Travel / Re: Uber-Like Service For Powerbikes? by nkowaputa(m): 1:13am On Jul 06, 2017
Tomide12:

So I've been hearing a lot about this app called MAXGo and i thought i'd give it a shot. The app which is similar to Uber, Taxify and Oga taxi but For PowerBikes, allows you request a power bike to come pick you up and drop you off at your location. Unlike Uber though, the riders are trained and certified by MAXGo. I was initially skeptical about it, but after i was stuck in traffic around law school in V.I, i just thought i should give it a try.

Besides you get some money in your app wallet when you download the app, so your first ride is practically free.

I was pleasantly surprised at how effective the app was and the ride was actually cheaper than Okada, plus it's a Powerbike and i also got a helmet which is something i have always wanted with Bikes.

I got to work in Lekki in less than 15 minutes (thank GOD cos i may just have been fired if not) and the rider was very nice and pleasant. All in all, i was impressed.

Now where it gets interesting is these guys have a very mouth-watering referral system and if you get a couple of people to download and use your referral codes, your rides will be practically free. This is asides the 100 Naira they give to everyone on sign up.

I think it's a cool app with some really cool incentives -> www.max.ng/go

The game might just be changing for UBER and Taxify as they now have some interesting competition.

Isaiah preached the coming of our about a many many years before he was born​

the coming of Jesus just tells us God always keep to his words...

so he actually came to change the law of the jews

Fallacy!

Jesus clearer said: I have come to fulfill the law, and not to abolish it. This he said when he was asked if it was right for a man to divorce his wife and marry another according to Moses law.
However, In Jesus Christ we find the fulfillment of God's promise through the prophets.

How do I start my life afresh because I am so confused.
It is not going to be easy for me because I have invested so much in this marriage.I have done so many things because of love.It is really hard for me.I am at the receiving end.

Will I be able to pull through this?

Death is the worst thing that can happen to man. Yet when Jesus was told his friend Lazarus is sick, he said IT WAS TO BRING GLORY TO GOD. Lazarus died but that was not the end. Christ brought him back to life thus, his death brought glory to God. When it seems finished, the Power of Christ is made manifest. Forget your investments in the marriage and run to Jesus like Martha and Mary her sister. Visit a catholic chapel visit Jesus in the Eucharist. Peace

Making Malami Attorney General



Buhari actually called Femi Falana on phone telling him to get prepared to work in his cabinet(Falana himself attested to this in an interview with Channels TV) but Falana is not a politician just like Evans is not also a politician, the politician from Ekiti got the job and today, here we are!
ONE MINISTER PER STATE. Yeye!

FEMI FALANA as ATTORNEY GENERAL will not be losing Anticorruption cases serially the way this dunce is losing it.

LET US choose the best among us, if not, we will all suffer from our foolish addiction to mediocrity!

Saraki As Senate President


I have criticised PMB on several occasions. On the emergence of MESU as SP, on retaining certain mediocrities within his government, on his lackadaisical attitude towards providing leadership needed by the APC etc but on this war on corruption and continuous loss of prominent cases of corruption, I cannot blame him.

His major campaign word in 2015 was "if we(not I) don't kill corruption, corruption will kill us.."....tHIS statement means that war against corruption involves Division of Labour. PMB will fight it, Judiciary will fight it, NASS will fight it, PEOPLE will fight it. Every one has a responsibility. And Division of Labour is not a mere sharing of duties, the duties are shared according to area of Specialisation. PMB's job is prosecution and he has set a motion for the prosecution of untouchables and mighty. From the Senate President to the High level Judges, Lawyers(S.A.N inclusive) to former powerful office holders. His job is to prosecute. Unfortunately, Buhari only exists in the executive, if he had headed judiciary and NASS too, we won't be losing glaringly good cases on the alter of hypocritical technicalities and meaningful laws to help the war would have been passed. Also, if PMB had not tried or given impression that he will try the high and might of the NASS and judiciary, if it were to be war on corrupt teachers, vendors and farmers, may be the other arms would have cooperated.

MESU earthly but temporary triumph yesterday is the failure of the people of Nigeria who choose to remain helpless and always think that their governmental duties end at the poll! Unfortunately, their mouths are only good at doing one thing...Abusing PMB!

Crafty MESU dropped all his lawyers and went for Agabi. He knew what he was doing. He knew he can't defend himself because he is a thief, so he went for a plan that will compromise the case. Recall, PMB stood his ground and took him to court. Agabi was Danladi's former boss, Danladi's brother works in his Chambers till date and the Prosecution Lawyer Rotimi Jacobs was his former Personal Assistant. Unfortunately, the inexperienced Attorney General did not reconstitute or advise PMB to reconstitute CCT before the announcement of prosecution and he didn't change Jacobs when MESU changed his own lawyers knowing well the relationship between his own lawyer and Mesu new lawyer.

Old man Agabi, a rich and comfortable lawyer who in his heart of hearts know that Mesu is a thief ought not to have taken such a case. Gani Fawehinmi once rejected a similar case from a Governor. Everyone has failed Nigeria and the future of the incoming generation because of vanities!

I stand with BUHARI......IF WE DONT KILL CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION WILL KILL US.

Senate has full control of itself. Judiciary has full control of itself. These two are PRO CORRUPTION ARMS without remorse. Executive is also corrupt but there lies the hope if anything good will happen but unfortunately, it is the only arm that has no control!!!

I pity Sagay. I Think the man should resign too unless a new deal is cut. However, my respect for Sagay knows no bounds!!!



Pls tell me 3 thing that made you believe in Buhari?
Age?
Personal and merited achievements?
His oratory?
His business or academic successes?

If you were a HR would you have hired Buhari to manage a 1 billion dollars investment of your family?

Stop creating excuses. He wasn't going to add anything positive to Nigeria.

Car Talk / Re: What Are The Functions Of The 'd', 'd3', 'd2' And 'd1' Of Automatic Cars by nkowaputa(m): 6:38pm On Jun 10, 2017
Hi guys,

I was involved in an argument with friends yesterday, over the use of the Driving gears of an automatic gearing car.

Different car products have different automatic gearing system. Mine is a Honda Accord 2006 (Discussion continues) model,and the gear system is pictured below.

It has a 'P-park', 'R-reverse', 'N-neutral' 'D-drive' 'D3', 'D2' and 'D1' gears.

The argument relates to the functions of the 'D', 'D3', 'D2', and 'D1' driving gears respectively, and under what circumstances should each one be used?.

So tech guys in the house, it's time to show off your knowledge.

Merci!!!


I use d2 and D3 to beat a driver moving at same speed with me.

slex:
Greetings everyone. I feel so bad , sad and traumatised right now because of how someone just decided to wake up one day and do evil to me. My essence of writing this is to use Nairaland as a means of educating more people on the dangers you may face when your ATM card has been compromised.


Yesterday after finishing up work for the day i did my usual closing time ritual; i shut my system down, switched off the AC and the sockets then started my journey and this was already 6-01pm. When i reached Chevron round about at exactly 6-37pm I heard the usual notification tone on my phone that i had received a message. I ignored after 2 mins i heard another then i removed the phone from my pocket and checked lo and behold what did i see?N20k debit alert from GTB twice.

I was like WHAT!!! when did i initiate these transactions and while still looking at the messages surprised another N20k debit alert came in after a few seconds yet another N20k totalling N80,000 naira. Like a man possessed I quickly Hotlisted my Account by sending an sms with the Hotlist format and after that i received a message that my Account has been hotlisted from GTB but it was already too late. The balance left after the N80k taken was just N7k.

My people , the feeling of seeing your money leaving your account in ral time is a very crazy experience I felt so helpless. Anyways I have gone to a GTB Branch and complained but they are telling me it can take a week to 3 months for investigations to be concluded. Me i want my money refunded and i dont even get why it has to take so long (45 days max) to resolve that issue. Thank God i have 2 other accounts but this has got me thinking that our banks need to protect s their clients more.

The thief used a POS/Web transfer channel to remove the money why?because he knows if he uses an ATM his face will be captured by CCTV or the camera on the machine meaning No be today him de do this kain thing.

tthere should be some sort of way to prevent unauthorised transfers honestly. Either when you want to pay with a POS machine a message shoud be sent to you requesting authorization before payment can be done on a POS machine. How this thief bypassed OTP authorization to remove money from my account beats my imagination.

Please be careful everyone.

From a pained member. embarassed


Was ur card stolen? Do u remember where u used it last?

Last night I bought fuel at oando and paid with pos. The attendant gave me my receipt and then started walking away. I shouted "my card" then he said sorry and brought it back.
Yes! He may have forgotten or he may have planned it since he saw me type my pin. If he left with the card and harmed with my pin, he would have withdrawn the last 8725 naira in my account.
