abduldope: guy abt takin a jornalist to d bank n be a HERO dat means no reward frm GOd i guess... Cus it wld sound as if u do am jst mk pple HAIL U

SORRY Sir. I humbly beg to disiagree, U guessed wrongly, u missed it, your 'meaning' of Hero is not very correct, & pedestrian, common bus-stop usage.

Access to dictionary is now free on the net

Hero: person of noble Qualities, ideaalized for courage, outstanding achievement

A Journalist on the other hand is basically a trained dutiful public witness, who help to reflect all sides to a case.
Don't forget that if the case had been the error of an official without conscience, attempt may be made to turn OP to a victim. This was done to a student of the Polytechnic Ibadan a few years ago ...........

[size=18pt]WHY I Will Score U 40%[/size]

DRY-ACTION, I am proud of you, u are now an NL HERO, I am one of your respondents from your first thread where you sought advice on this issue. & this was what I said .......


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Report to your Bank Manager, accompanied by Journalists & become a Hero

[size=18pt]Touch it & u may END UP IN JAIL[/size]

IF u Finally get there, u will notice a lot of writings on the wall

Be Gracious enough to quote this WARNING on the wall, to warn others

If in doubt seek Legal Advice

Or go to First Bank HQ, ask of what happened to a customer who mistakenly saw the balance of another customer of same name on ATM & spent it, they may be kind enough to give u his cell address

Those who are now 'Approving' that u should do the 'needful' will not be there when your picture appear in the newspapers for the Wrong things & some innocent members of your family are holding Tearful get-togethers, God Forbid

......... U missed 'accompanied by Journalists' However, there is always space in the Biggest Room in the World, the room for IMPROVEMENT. & this is how you can leverage on it ....

Go to the corporate headquarters of the Bank & drop a letter to the MD, through the corporate affairs Head, comending the Bank & their Branch Manager for helping you earn N20,000

Appeal that your mentor has suggested that you tell the story to the Press as a way to help improve morals in the nation at large

Add that it was also suggested that the Bank will need to varify the anthenticity of the story at some stage, so the need to alert them in advance

But it is also considered that using the Banks publicity apparatus may give it a better professional packaging as well as ensure some image control/monitoring/benefit to the Bank in some way ...............

Whatever process is used in getting a media support for this story will convert it from being a Nollywood Tale by the Moonlihgt, to an ESSENTIAL part of your CV which can fetch a better job/Award/appointment now or in the Future

40% is a pass mark in some schools, its just that NL mentors (TEAM INTEGRITY) think a distinguished member like you deserve something better, for being positive in the midst of High intensity negativism pervading our Forum & nation at large.

We need good role models & u have been identified as a good Prospect, I pray u do not disappoint ........

IF u take any of these steps, the value of this incidence will increase by some high percentage, & those laughing at you will frown at their own folly ........ & DRY-ACTION would be converted to Super-Action or 'Super-Dryakson', as you may desire ........

Apple has acquired Chinedu Echeruo’s HopStop.com, The Wall Street Journal’s publication, AllThingsDigital reports. Founded in 2005, HopStop.com makes mobile applications for both iOS and Android that covers over 300 cities and that helps people get directions or find nearby subway stations and bus stops. Terms of the deal have not been disclosed as at the time of this publication.

HopStop has oft been compared to Israel’s Waze which was recently acquired by Google for $1 billion. The move is seen as Apple’s plan to bolster its map offering especially given Google’s recent acquisition of Waze.

A serial entrepreneur, Chinedu Echeruo grew up in Eastern Nigeria and attended Kings College, Lagos. He attended Syracuse University and the Harvard Business School in the United States and founded HopStop.com after working for several years in the Mergers & Acquisitions and Leveraged Finance groups of J.P Morgan Chase where he was involved in a broad range of M&A, Financing and Private Equity transactions. He also worked at AM Investment Partners, a $500 million volatility-driven convertible bond arbitrage hedge fund.

He founded and raised nearly $8 million for his two U.S based internet companies; Hopstop.com and Tripology.com. Tripology.com was acquired in 2010 by American travel and navigation information company, Rand McNally. He was named Black Enterprise Magazine’s Small Business Innovator of the year and listed in the magazine’s Top 40 under 40 and is currently a partner and head of the Principal Investing group at Constant Capital, a West Africa based investment bank.

True to form, Echeruo is working on yet another venture but this time, focused on small businesses in Africa. Check out a video of Chinedu Echeruo below at last year’s TedxIkoyi where he talks about his latest project for small businesses in Africa; “crowd sourced business in a box.”

dryakson: It sounds silly but belive me or not it is PURELY real. I receive credit alert about a week now notifying me of 800,000 naira into my bank account from an unknown person, I was extremely surprised I even thought is 800 naira until I refresh my eyes and saw 800,000.
I quickly login my mobile money app to see my balance and the money was there.
I called the callable to if anyone sent money to me but non, though I didn't tell then about the 800,000 I asked tactically and uptil now nobody knows about the money.
My fellow nairalanders please advise me before you people hear story that touch.

Should I go and withdraw the money?

Should I wait like months or even year?

If it happens to be the bank mistake, will they hold me responsible after I spent the money?

Please advise me on what to do.
Thanks

adejodan: @Oduz, it seem you are knowledgeable about the business but you threw more questions to the poster than he even asked. You said there are 3 major kinds of oven, what are they? Please mention. The vital thing in bread production is marketing according to you. So hou should he market? The brand of breads that went into extinction, what happened? Did people refuse to eat or competition drove them out of business? Answering these questions will give life to the thread. Thanks.

1) Imported Electric oven (as shown above)

2) Locally fabricated electric oven

3) Mud clay oven, powered by wood fire

wealth kehinde: U should get the message from the group and the content. Abi which one b ur own?

Nobody is above mistake, rather than admitting your error & pointing out that you have now corrected it, you are 'forming'

Anyway the error was captured in quote, so your 'forming' does not add up,

So how did the meeting go today?

Best of luck on your job search

jenijoe: I work with an NGO chinedum asanobi foundation,(CAF) we are concerned with unlocking potentials of the underprivileged and down trodden in our society through training, education, and meeting their physical and psychological needs. We work directly with aged people, drug addicts and teenage pregnant girls. I need advice on how we can raise financial support and collaborations out there. How can i contribute more to development of this foundation aside my job functions.

Kudos, Name your website if any, or Drop your mail or PM me for some relevant useful materials to these challenges

At last I managed to wangle my way to the meeting for the first time despite all odds. To God be the Glory

Sincere appreciation to all those who nominated and voted me as a Director without even asking for it, and without being a major Financier,

But with just one simple collateral; INTEGRITY

Sincere appreciation to the major Financiers & Initiators, for putting their trust in the idea, in spite of a shakky start

The future seems bright if we all remain alert & strive to upgrade our transparency & integrity, our country can not go far without such values

I promise to strive to protect this overwhelming TRUST & support given by over 80% of Partners in attendance

With your mutual positive support & vigilance we can turn this to a truely productive multimillion Naira Enterprise within 2 yrs

chronique: Well,maybe you need to read the thread created by inspired motors,warning potential victims about been wary of these dudes as Nigerian customs do not auction cars online. Victims have narrated their experiences there and we've tried as much as possible to collectively sensitise people on these tricks. Moreover,the thread is right there amongst the top 5 threads on autos section. How people still fall for this cheap scam still beats my imagination. Tryna suggest am a member of the gang cos I said I do not pity them(victims) no more? Well,your opinion is your opinion;I've been on this forum for 5 yrs and haven't had anything/anyone soil my name. Maybe you need to re-read my post to understand where I'm coming from. Why not ask yourself why people who negotiated/transacted with dealers with genuine cars aren't getting scammed? Why are the victims of these cheap fraud always people who responded to ads of these so called maiduguri/kebbi/badagry "car dealers/customs officials"? The underlining factor here is that the cars must have been quoted at below obtainable market prices,hence the lure. I'm not just talking about "goatleg's" issue;I'm talking generally about other victims. I think you'd do well to look at this issue objectively rather than placing sentiments on it.

Points noted, thanks for making the effort
My desire is to make people look beyond the auto section & see other dirty traps that these rats are laying around
Particularly their post event strategies to prevent being traced, most of this things are psychological games
If encouraged the victims are most likely to be dedicated to the eradication of these mess, than those of us who never experienced the pain
Establishments like banks & even nations are scammed, in the course of basic transactions, are these due to greed
The victims need all the support we can give them, to attain a cleaner Naija, that future generations can be proud of
Stay blessed

Royal Roy: Saw the page you asked questions & somehow you were ignored!!

Seems something is going on as nobody is saying anything about it since almost 5 days Stpat have been off the thread.

Abi all of them don't have internet access in the last 5 days?

Let's give them enough time to strategize on how 'to deal with Oduz' the spoilsport

walata1: I AM BUYING ABOUT TWO(2) ACRES OF LAND IN OGUN STATE. CAN I DO THE C of O IMMEDIATELY I AQUIRE THE LAND. PLS ADVISE. THANKS

YES, why not

walemglobal: Are these guys real? NL.... are they real? For the past days now going to 4 days now the Op lines has not been going through day or night. Also we have sent him several emails not a single response. Came here also to leave some lines but nothing.

Even looking at it at this angle, he or the so-called partners has not been to this thread for days now. I would personally like to know if these guys are serious and trust worthy.

Pardon me if am wrong here, but lack of communication for days is not a good sign. I have personally checked on the OP various thread on NL to see if they have opened fresh thread that I might missed rather than this one, I can bet you, my findings shows nothing other than this.

So, why all of a sudden that none of them has come to this thread for days now, and records shows that Mr Patrick was here yesterday in the morning but wouldn't respond to some questions neither would he leave any line here.

Guys, it is worth digging in more to know about this thread is real.

That's my own feelings.

Are they real?
I asked that question on this thread, many months ago, on the first meeting date precisely
Bus Stop meetings, no fixed address etc.
I cautioned on need for transparency, raised objections, but many kept quite

Best wishes,

chronique: I'm tired of all these things. Even with all the shouts and sensitisation we've been doing here,you guys still do not learn. How much was the car that you fell for it? This thing only happens to greedy people. We'd advertise genuine cars here,buyers would be negotiating at ridiculous prices(as if they heard that we stole the cars). At the end,they fall victim to scammers. I know how many nairalanders I've personally deleted from bbm cos of the stupid prices they call when negotiating. I wouldn't be surprised if these set of people are the ones that end up being duped. Except you are pre-ordering a car,never ever pay an advance for a car that is in Nigeria that you or your rep hasn't seen. It just doesn't make sense. It's greed that would make someone pick interest in an advert that says a tokunbo 2010 venza is selling for 2m naira.

Sincerely speaking,I do not pity buyers who get duped as most of them are equally dishonest.I've experienced a situation where a buyer and a seller from my end mistakenly met themselves while we were transacting and since they hail from the same place and speak same language,they spoke their dialect and decided to cut me off by arranging to meet elsewhere. If the eediot had been scammed now,he'd run to NL to say it happened through me.

My point here is this: the reason most people fall for it is cos they are either greedy or eqaully dishonest and such people,I do not pity.

Finally,the way and manner you were duped is just too easy. No hard work was done by the scammers. I know others would read this and still fall tomorrow.

To the moderators: you guys really need to sit up cos a lot of nonsense is going on on this forum.

My friend are you real? Leave this your Apostles according to St Chronicles
OK, What if I come up with a new opinion that anybody that condemns the victims is a member of these GANG
Planted to discourage them (victims) from sharing experience for others to learn from,
Watch your moves man, u are not talking to babies, enough said

This is very unfortunate, Not only Auto Sales, a lot of 'interesting' biz proposals on NL are manned by scammers, mostly with multiple usernames, to suggest support for the ideas, even if you avoid them, once you innocently commend the idea or have traces of any philantropic gesture on NL, they make private contact with u, to ensure they 'suck your blood'. I pity Seun, because NL seems to have a promising future, except for the proliferation of scammers & scamming gangs. But they can be tamed by commited researchers, & victims who are ready to go all the way on prosecution, despite the corrupt police bad eggs.

pdozie: Hi,
Any update or report on financial status or number of Pioneer members should not be posted here. It should be made available in the meeting and any other avenue the meeting will agree to.

Good request, but Why not here?
& If not here, why not immediately by mail or other platforms, fb, or the official website
Note that the fact that funds have been deposited means that the failure of you signatories/promoters in being ambigous about meeting date, which was promised for August is bound to raise Questions on the integrity of the project & you promoters
Nice to hear from you anyway,

You have been named as a signatory to the account, kindly CONFIRM to give us the big picture, rather than a one sided report we have been receiving so far. Thanks

ranksz: Whao what a month. stpat1 says he has been unable to post on the thread because he still under suspension by the MODs. pls lift the ban o.

1 more day to go for us to know how many Pioneer partners we have.

Where & when did this happen?

I Hope the MODES did not ban him on the website and facebook page

Another reminder, that a multi-million cooperative requires serious TRANSPARENCY to sustain members morale & enthusiasm

By today we should know what the contributions bottom line is

stpat1: The next meeting will be announced by the end of August.

The end of August is here, we hope this promise will be fulfilled faithfully

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

But I cannot sight any act of thuggery in this video, in fact the man was not allowed to talk & he cooperated

@ Poster, which kin' tin b dis? U fall my hand

Sounds like pile, but could be a thousand other things, best is to try & see a doctor, (I'm not one)

Thats a sensitive area, so act fast & don't be shy about being physically examined

Egba girl: The only question I have is: why are they not wearing trad? Like their pops and the rest of the group?

Bad Girl, u beat me to it, I was just going to point this out.

('Ba wa, Ba wa eburo mi' (spoken in conc Egba Language)- Translation; It is so true, so true my sister)

In their old age, whether they take to music or not, this picture could be of some value, but that value comes down less wearing an industrial comodity like this stuff because african fashion itself is still evolving, and do have their own tales, half of the materials in Fela Museum today are his unique fashion, not this kind of stuff, it's not as if He never wore these stuff, but they tell no tale, so no curator worth his name will give them much attention.

Summary, the T- Shirts won by Femi's Children here are not much different from the T- shirts worn by their Grt Grandfather Rev Ransome Kuti while he was recognised in his community 105 years ago as the first student to register at Abeokuta Grammar School

Kudos to Femi & his boys nevertheless, it takes quite some effort to blow the horns, not something u can be 'forced' to do .........
