Hello
I still dey wait for una insights O!
Thanks!

Hi y'all
I need a quality computer case for an ATX PC build
I was wondering if I could get brand names like Corsair, XFX, CoolerMaster, Nanoxia or lesser brands like Thermaltake ,Zalman or Silverstone from computer village
I spoke to a computer engineer and his insistence on ALL cases gotten from the village come with their own power supplies put me off as more often than not those power packs can't handle power drawing tasks like CPU overclocking or support high end graphics cards
Thanks for the replies

Copacetic:
Tinubu is the only one of them that has been consistent in his call for regionalism and true federalism. The loser will be Nigerians and all those who want true federalism. It looks like the One Nigerians won today, but make we dey look.

One Nigeria?
With Saraki or Atiku?
2 power hungry vultures
Seeing Saraki believed he had the critical mass, how come he choose to stab his fellow party men in the back
Is it because PDP promised him his believed 'birthright' for a bowl of porridge?
Is that why he choose to polarise the platform on which he emerged even before the 8th Assembly was constituted?
And he intends to hold this façade together for the next four years?
Also, how did David Mark emerge MAJORITY LEADER in an APC dominated senate?
I do not think you believe in Santa Claus cos if you looked closely, you would have seen Wike, Mimiko and the new Akwa Ibom governor backslapping with the new senators
Question: What were serving PDP governors doing in the NASS?
I say it again, the race for 2019 has UNOFFICIALLY started today

Idrismusty97:
Buhari is definitely not the loser here, He is actually a winner . Watch how events unfolds...

I beg to differ
How did Buhari win? Do you think Saraki's emergence gets Tinubu's monkey off his back?

For those supporters of PMB who feel offended by my use of the word 'learner', do know I mean no harm nor insults
For the children of hatred who fail to see the emergence of PMB was the desire by generality of Nigerians to break free from the shackles of bad leadership and ineptitude, please find another thread to spew your half baked truths

How credible are the rates in this information?
A friend came over the weekend and mentioned dollar going for 217 at MMIA BDCs
That aside, Naija banks (in my case GTbank) will tell you to fund your dom account by yourself (in other words: black market) when you need foreign exchange

As omonnakoda rightly said,they are NOT Nigerians
Please can you stop this imbecilic moronic cravings especially those claiming them for their ethnic groups
True they might have Nigerian heritage, but which amongst them proudly associates with the wasteland Nigeria has become of today?
We should rather see them as citizens of a nation that works and see how we can model Nigeria to such a pattern
My 2 pennies!

RIP Father Sly

Who made the Rivers REC a professor?
Does he not know that the whole world is watching this?
How come a very serious issue is been trivialized by him?

Look up KLM or Turkish Airlines
Both fly in to Manchester!

Akinife:
I really appreciate the great job u guys are doing....please I need ur collective advised on which is bette. To apply to university of Pouthmouth (masters) by myself or to make use of agents.( please note, my money never beginning grow like grass).
Thank you!

You can do it ALL ON YOUR OWN
The information contained in this thread https://www.nairaland.com/826936/uk-student-visa-tier-4 is fantastic
And if you decide to use an agent, use reputable ones
Personally, I was offered assistance regarding my then Tier 4 visa application FOR FREE and I took it
Although I had gotten my CAS prior to their offer
Thus you can deduce, the schools give the agents some remuneration
Wish you the best

Abegi, can I get a heads up on sending some stuff back to Naija from this place?
If I decide to pay for excess baggage allowance, I'll (my bank account) end up in the red for the next 3 years
Thanks for your all replies

From my little understanding of statistics, I see Jamaicans, Algerians, Iranians and Zimbabweans are more criminally inclined than Nigerians
Sorry to disappoint those expecting Nigeria to take top spot

“An excellent plumber is infinitely more admirable than an incompetent philosopher [PHD holder]. A society which scorns excellence in plumbing, because it is humble activity, and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy, because it is an exalted activity, will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy. Neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water.” John Gardener, US Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare.


The above nailed it.

b1oodykiller:
BUHARI caused it because he is a terrorist

There you go again
If a liar tells his yarns well enough, soon he will believe it to be the gospel truth
We keep hearing this worn out bullsh*t repeatedly yet the FG provides us with no verifiable proof
Pray , if it is Buhari behind BH, is he more powerful than the president or the country?
Why not throw the legal kitchen sink at him and lock him away forever?
Is it not an indictment of the cluelessness of Ebele Jonathan that he's allowing a terrorist sponsor walk freely and kill the citizens he swore to protect?
Please tell that terrorist thingy to the gods
Nigeria burns and all you can offer are this worn out lies.
As Fela used to say, next base ojare!

fitzmayowa:
@OP, please correct the headline...its Baga not Bama as you stated...

Sorry, my bad!
Done now.
Thanks

b1oodykiller:
I guess sahara bokoharam repoters

It is people like you, people who have sold their future for the pittance that Reno Omokri doles out to the laptop squad that will utter such
Pray why can't the security apparatus nail Sahara Reporters , Buhari or any alleged Boko Haram sponsor or sympathizer with verifiable intelligence reports?
It the same old worn out lies, religious bigotry, innuendo and beer parlour gossip you keep peddling to atone for Ebele Jonathan's incompetence
If you had half the sense of a goose and took out time to read the story, you would have seen instances to know it was a BBC news sourced story
Meanwhile Nigeria burns daily and all you can do is take sides rather than sourcing for solutions that will quench the fire, still the storms and take over
With people like you, it is true that if you put a foolish man in a milling machine, you still cannot grind out and separate his foolishness from him

The militant group Boko Haram has seized a town and key multinational military base in north-eastern Nigeria, officials and eyewitnesses say.

A senator in Borno state said troops had abandoned the base in the town of Baga after it was attacked on Saturday.

Residents of Baga, who fled by boat to neighbouring Chad, said many people had been killed and the town set ablaze.

Baga, scene of a Nigerian army massacre in 2013, was the last town in the Borno North area under government control.

It hosted the base of the Multi-National Joint Task Force (MNJTF), made up of troops from Nigeria, Chad and Niger.

Set up in 1998 to fight trans-border crime in the Lake Chad region, the force more recently took on Boko Haram.

Boko Haram attacks towns and villages on an almost daily basis, abducting people including young boys and girls, BBC Africa analyst Mary Harper reports.

The military, which includes Western advisers and surveillance, seems incapable of dealing with the problem, she adds.

'Helter skelter'

Residents who fled to Chad said they had woken to heavy gunfire as militants stormed Baga early on Saturday, attacking from all directions.

They said they had decided to flee when they saw the multi-national troops running away.

Maina Maaji Lawan, senator for Borno North, told BBC World Service civilians had run "helter skelter" - "some into the forest, some into the desert".

Communications with the town were cut off and exact information about casualty numbers could not be confirmed, he said.

"We are very dispirited," the senator added.

Confirming that the military had abandoned the base, he said people's frustration knew "no bounds" over the apparent fact that the military had not fought back.

"There is definitely something wrong that makes our military abandon their posts each time there is an attack from Boko Haram," the senator said.

Amen to what?!
Abati is someone who doesn't subscribe to Christianity, Islam or Judaism, how come he is suddenly a pastor leading new year prayers
Another bigot using religion to divide and rule to further his master's cause
Nigerians, shine your eyes in 2015 and do not be deceived

I watched the first two videos and could only shake my head
We might snipe at the tribe this dudes come from but the stain extends to all Nigerians
The interrogating officer mentions the accused paedophile man i.e. Alex Okonkwo as having 'a joke of a passport'
In the other video, he tags the dude as a devil by shining a torch on him during interrogation
That is hard to swallow coming from a Thai but what do you expect when we fail to respect ourselves in the nations of the world because our leaders don't give a phuck about us
Naija is truly finished!

N:B
What is it with Nigerians begging with the name of God after been busted?
A piety which does not transform our character nor draw us closer to the Eternal Spirit
How did Paul put it, having a form of religion but denying the power thereof!

Would it work?
If only Labour (and especially Milliband) would get their act together

Lexusgs430:
Teresa May is drafting a bill, insisting all students after completing the course the visa was granted for, would have to return to their home country and re-apply for whatever fresh application process.

SEASON'S GREETINGS EVERYONE!

Every passing day it gets clearer than daylight that Goodluck is incapable of leading a country as complex and multifaceted as Nigeria
Pray why does this government continue to make elementary errors of judgement in even the simplest of decisions?
It is like a child who talks ,then understands and then thinks
How can you be seen hobnobbing with the supposed sponsor of Boko Haram?...a man the DSS says it is investigating on this allegation
All because of 2015
You cannot give what you do not have
This is a core celestial principle and anyone who understands principles know they cannot be violated without repercussions
This man keeps dragging Nigeria in the mud of ridicule with his actions , decisions and inactions everyday as he has brought the office of the Presidency to his level
As someone said on a radio program, how can this man who cannot educate his wife take Nigeria to the promised land?
Very soon, he will be vomited out of the bowels of Aso Rock in which he believes he's so safely ensconced in
Just wait and see

GeneralShepherd: Are students exempted from vat?

Choi see Naija guy
U no wan make mama Charles chop your money

I've had info which made me stack up my receipts initially (some saying you have 6 months after your purchase to claim back the VAT) but after critically analysing the info I've gotten, its a NO!
Check it, Tier 4 visas are exempt from council tax, you have NHS access etc which basically points that you are entitled to rights visitors do not have access to
Or does those more steeped in the knowledge of British life have contrary opinions?

^^^
Also keep your receipts n case you want to return items or claim back the VAT paid when you are leaving the UK seeing most prices have a 20% VAT charge on them

@ cavenchy, do you shop for your clothes @ Argos?
That is so lame man

@ esosa4real,add Vectone to your list for mobile network list
Look up all the networks suggested to you online and do your research from Naija
If your cousin has supplied his address, you can order a free SIM to be delivered there waiting for you before you arrive or buy at the airport

On clothing if you want mass production dress ( but cheap and of good quality) check out Primark
If your aim is dress that stand out (yet still with reasonable prices) visit a TKMaxx store
You might also pay Sports Direct a visit though they do more of casual and sportswear

You can book online for trains but know that the nearer the time for your journey that you book, the more expensive is the train
Same goes for buses but trains are faster
If you already know your itinerary, you can book from Naija or tell your cousin to help you purchase the ticket and reimburse him when you arrive

Poundland, Pound Stretcher, Lidl, Curry's PC World, and Aldi along with some names dropped for you by cavenchy are places you can get different things ranging from games to accessories
Amazon and Aldi can also help but deliveries take about 3-4 working days minimum

Other stores abound, just shine your eyes
The way the UK is built, their cities and towns have major shopping hubs and axis
Ask your hosts or the hotel staff but most of all have a tablet or good phone that can support browsing on the go
Goggle maps might come in handy to help you trace out postcodes

RedEboe: I can bet my very last kobo that any American (Black) who's opportuned to watch Ejeajo video will laugh off his seat saying, "Who are these African booty scratchers trying too hard to sound like us and dance better than Usher?"
I felt the same way watching Peter Okoye putting in so much "gra gra" into his dance moves.

African Booty scratchers
That is so mean and wicked

spikesC: Lets go to Mobile

Any suggestion?

I would like unlimited data or least 4GB
Any amount of text
500 minutes or more

But my main interest is the data

Sim only or s4 with great price

Anyone has fresh insights about this question as regards the best mobile network bundle price-wise for Naija bound calls apart from Lyca, Lebara or Vectone?
Preferably one that has data in the package
Lebara offers Freedom Pass but no thank you

Bambamzzzz: have been trying to book a return ticket for dec and am not getting below 280k

Like Summer, December is a peak time for airlines
Late November or about 2 weeks into January 2015 will have better rates

Booty4me: Op lol... Old gist. Are u a learner

This new piece is about 3 years old na

Bambamzzzz: when is the return date?

Find out from your school when they'll have breaks (which can can take advantage of to travel to Niaja) before you buy your ticket
Even at that, you can always extend your return ticket's initial date for a minimal fee if the selected date doesn't suit you again
Just contact your airline before the due date and they'll tell you how to go about it

3sha4lyf: Wow! Similar thing happened to me. I then blamed myself for alerting them. Only to find that it was someone I know who sent me sum suprise funds. Was lucky I could fall back to lloyds while they carried out their investigation even after I told dem I now know the sender. Lol.

Lucky you

spikesC: Lucky you. Seems tickets are going down now

Summer don finish na

“Indeed, initially we printed 5,000 forms that were distributed to the NGOs and other Support Groups but the forms soon ran out and we had to print additional 2,000.
“As I am speaking to you now we have at least another 1,000 groups demanding to be screened.”
Alkali added that “with the report of the Screening and Evaluation Committee now submitted to us we are going to the next level, that is to say, we shall undertake content analysis of the reports with a view to properly positioning the various support groups for the challenges of the 2015 general election.

So people have to constitute pressure groups before you will agree to contest for political office?
You mean the doofus cannot on his own decide he is running and sell us his vision i.e. if he has any
If this is not breaking the electoral campaign law, I wonder what it is?
Here in the UK, everyone knows David Cameron will be challenged by Ed Milliband in next year's general elections yet neither apart from the occasional political barbs aimed at each other in the press neither have started campaigning
If my memory serves me right, election campaigns start 90 days to an election in Nigeria
Why Ebele is jumping the gun to start campaigning beats me hollow seeing he'll stand in front of TV screens to claim rule of law
Well he is still the same person who went on national TV with Sambo to lie that the PDP has no zoning policy prior to the 2011 elections, so it is not surprising
Nigerians rulers are really pathetic!
