These are really interesting times, opportunity to learn more about world politics.
It means no matter your disagreement with your home country, all it takes is for one foreign policy to remind you that your host nation is not your home country.

This belief that killing someone brings money has to stop. It is the major cause of many of these killings, otherwise, what will be anyone's business with a young harmless girl.
The way we worship material possession also has to change

Lol. What of if na Saturday or he wear nika or T-shirt, this procedure non go work?

nurey:
How are you sure it is engine oil? It could be power steering fluid sef because it would only pump when engine is on just a guess.

Get 1 or 2litres of diesel, a brush of small size, on sunday, wear boxers, singlet and eye glasses and devote 2 hours of your time to wash the engine sparkling clean with the diesel and brush.

After cleaning, start vehicle and survey around engine area to know the leaking point. That will tell you what you need to fix or change to stop the oil leak.

Or

Pay a technician to find the leak but ensure he is right to avoid spending or opening engine unnecessarily.

Nice one OP.
This is how to show your works, when one employer sees this work and decides to employ him now, all those who were idling away their life will now start looking for who to blame for their life.

When we grow up, we wee take up the offer.

Well, Hyundai Kona (Full Electric, 250mile range) is currently being assembled in Nigeria. Why not just go all the way

That's my wish list for next year... This year, it's to add another 30kwh lifepo4 batteries to take me completely offgrid

We are very law abiding when it provides us excuses for not working.
Nice 1.

d142475:
The governors are not serious-they are the most clueless sets of people in Naija. If a governor has the capacity and man power to generate electric in his state, why will a governor have to wait for Abuja’s permission to do so? They’d point to the constitution as if they observe the rule of law in their day to day governance. They are lawless in many things, including trampling on the constitution (e.g local government autonomy) when it favors them, but when it comes to working for the people, they’d point to the limitations of the constitution to cover up their laziness and cluelessness.
With or without that law, Abuja would not even stop any state that has the wherewithal to generate power. If private individuals illegally run refineries for their own benefit and nothing is happening to them, a whole state government can damn Abuja and generate power for her citizens. Let Abuja do their worst (but I’m sure they won’t even oppose it). Our governors are just lazy and clueless !

If there was a time to be more appreciative of having renewable energy, it should be in these times of fuel scarcity. At least one only need to worry about fueling the car.

Everyone that has ever take pictures with this guy will start looking for eraser to clean those pictures. When it rains, it pours they say

I am also concerned about inverter freezers. My experience with the inverter fridge did not meet my expectations. They do not drag too much current when starting, they freeze fast, trouble starts when there is no power and in a short time the fridge is already getting hot. Works best when you want to power your fridge 247, so I will like to know if the thermocool inverter freezers also require 24hrs power or I am better off buying a regular freezer that can stay frozen for at least 72 hrs of no power?

ceaser:
I'm not sure this is inverter freezer. This model number does not appear to be of inverter type. Also the label with "Nigeria's first inverter freezer" written boldly on it will be on the lid.

If a 219L inverter freezer is rated 115w consumption, a 146L inverter freezer will probably have nameplate consumption much less than the 105w you have there.

I think you missed that particular ongoing discussion hence your response. The escrow statement you quoted was a side deal between someone who already ordered a car from Amd but wants to sell it as soon as it arrives. The prospect wants some form of protection since he is not dealing directly with Amd, so one party recommended that Amd is used as escrow until the exchange of the cars takes place. At least that is how I understand the situation.

peeps4u:
But does it eliminate 'Escrow scammed me and ran with my money"?

1. The reason the prices are a bit lower is because the money is paid in advance. So you want amdman to use his money to buy a car for a buyer at the same prices those who pay in advance also pay?

2. You want to shift the risk to amdman, what happens when the buyer gets the car and escrow runs away?

3. Tell us how paying to an escrow is a less risk for buyers. Isn't amdman also trusted enough for a while on NL? Isn't buyer also sending the money to an escrow based on trust? Is escrow traceable or registered and VERIFIED with Nairaland to be sure money can be recovered should he/she elope with money? Check when the thread started and tell why should an escrow be more trusted than OP who has handled amounts NO ESCROW on NL has ever handled?
Does paying to an escrow have an insurance policy? How is it safer than paying to amdman who is as trusted as any escrow on NL

I just want to learn

Who even flogs a child less than 5 yrs old? Even devil non wicked reach like this.

Where the pregnancy when Nairaland say she get around december?

Very unusual for oga Emmawumi to be absent for such long spells, hope all is okay?

Using your graph, its seems it has a 4 year cycle. If that pattern is correct then there should be a pull back or loss in value this year. Right?

jedisco:
The last selloff wasn't due to a supposed Russian ban (which never happened). It was more due to response to macroeconomic policies by the us govt to fight inflation. Effect can be seen across most global markets. Russia is actively working towards a framework to help bitc0in miners operate in their country. Bitc0in has been made legal in India. Western nations are fine-tuning regulations around bitc0in so that folks who own them can pay taxes and institutions can offer them as products. Already, an increasing number of western banks now allow folks to buy bitc0in in app.

If I put 1k away anytime someone predicted bitc0in will go to zero, by now I'd have over a million in that box.

This is the bitc0in returned ROI over the past 10 years, for a market moving that quick, volatility is bound to occur. And guess what? That volatility is what many see and new opportunity and why some of us are in crypt0

I wonder how the market will react to it in the coming days

OBAGADAFFI:
“It will cost the company about 5,000 dollars to replant a hectare, meaning that we will require about 100,000 dollars (N50 million) to replant the entire 20 hectares and bring it up to its present years of maturity over the next seven years.

How can anyone do this kind of dastardly act? This is so devilish.

This is so bad.

Can someone confirm this?

9icetoo:
VIS is a federal agency. There can be no such rule. You are free to renew your road worthiness from any of their centres in Nigeria.

So if you were on holidays in Abuja, you will need to drive back to Lagos to renew your road worthiness if it expires in Abuja?

Hmmmm.... The weight of this your question is up to 300kg. Very heavy

Twenty8:
I think I read something about personal trainer? Is the personal trainer a guy or woman?

What I think you are looking for is only for those who have a subscription with CSCS. That way, you can see all shares from all your brokers in one place.
However, if you use just one broker, you can also ask them to send you your statement of account with them.

yinkaoke:
Thank you, this is for unclaimed divided l need the one that that spill out your name should you not remember where you invested.
Thanks so much

These 2 guys couldn't have put it any better.

SincereBigot:
i dont understand why some Nigerians feel someone will be working for them and giving them return on investment

why cant he plant the corn for himself and make all the profit? ok so you will be at your house sleeping and you expect a nigerian to be trading forex for you or planting corn for you or rearing goats for you just to give you return on investments? as per say na ur papa abi

una go soon learn

Guyman02:
People continue to fall for this easy scam.
What they do is to acquire a single farm land, plant rice or corn or fish and poultry worth for example N10m, they show their mumu subscribers this one farm and tell them that they have something similar in Kafanchan, Kebbi, Shiroro etc with beautiful pictures in their website and brochures.
They will use this single farm valued at N10M to get N500M from 'investors' who will be paid huge interest by Ponzi scheme from the monies of the new entrants until the bubble will burst when the Ponzi reaches its peak.
The farm will quickly be sold to a buyer with all the documents and everyone disappears only to return with a new name in another location but if the money fleeced is huge they relocate to abroad with their families

You have taken many lives, wrecked many jobs now you want to face people's career.

What kind of headline is this for Christ Sake?

Forgive me for digressing, I just entered here from the Toke Makinwa thread, so once again forgive my bias.
With that disclaimer out of the way, I have two questions for you.
1. Are you a man or a woman?
2. If your answer to 1 is man, is this lady in question your wife, mother or sister?
This is 2022.

Nchabuomo:
It's for a lady. Just regular stuff... going to work and maybe shopping...little or no inter-state

I remember that thread, all those who accused that Alfa of killing the kids should begin to tender an unreserved apology. But the truth is that in present day Nigeria, it is very very hard to trust anyone so I do not blame those who suspected the alfa.
This woman was lucky she was alert to the situation and got to report first. I don't want to imagine what would have happened if someone had spotted the boy and reported to the police, then she would automatically have become a kidnapping suspect.

How do you do this? Do you have to handle the logistics and storage. I am assuming you are not located in the region where those commodities are being sold.

jedisco:
Government borrowing rates are very different from individual rates.

More than 10% for government bonds is extremely high. Very few countries offer that- and such countries all have one thing in common. They have about the worst performing currencies.

Business folks may get higher rates of returns but it comes with added risks. You don't expect PFAs to put folks pensions in recharge card business. The reason I didn't partake in the last bond was cos I had used free funds I had to buy grains backs weeks. A bag of maize I bought for 17.5k then now sells for 25k. That's over 40% in about 2 months and prices may still rise before the rains. But then, it doesn't come with the safety a government backed bond gives

All those saying that their fathers will go and use the money to buy beer, are they saying most fathers are dysfunctional and irresponsible? Most of the men and fathers that I know are the ones who handle more than 90% of the bills so where are you guys seeing these types of fathers?

1. If there is one year I can say no mistakes, perhaps this should be the year.
2. Mostly my previous years investment, then I bought over a previous Sukuk because the others wanted it liquidated for whatever reason.
3. Wasn't really active in the NSE this year, hopefully, that will be corrected next year. Also, on the business end, give my consulting IT business more visibility globally so as to improve on my offensive.

What are our investment mistakes in 2021?

What are the Investments and businesses that gave us the best returns in 2021?


What are our investment plans for 2023?

I be think say u non go stop. You and Xiaoli are fighting the wrong guy. Oga Emma is often times also a victim, he is just suggesting that we sometimes let it go so that we can still have time to focus on what is truly important, which on this thread is investment lessons.

Munamoqel:
I no get time for long eassy .just tell me the stock to buy .

I agree with the bolded as that has been my own experience too. You could even notice the battery voltage gain up to 0.3 increase in volts when you switch off the inverter when not in use.

I like your workshop, na workshop wen de non de do anything na em de look organised

ewizard1:
So I have decided to use GiF and Photos for interpreting results.

Picture 1
The 2 test apparatus with their leads laid out.

Picture 2
https://j.gifs.com/w0ZqxR.gif
Connect the battery to the inverter when it's off. Noticed the quick 0.05A draw then down to 0.00A. That's the capacitor getting charged.

Picture 3
The inverter (still off) connected to the battery. Power Supply detects 0.00A draw.

Picture 4
The inverter turned on with "No Load" Power supply reads 0.56A.

(My Opinion)
There isn't and shouldn't be consumption for an inverter when it is in OFF state. Also, there isn't any term for it.

The terms "Idle Consumption" and "No Load Consumption" is the same consumption with different pronunciation.
