Rrchrd: I'm a young man of 30+ searching for a serious relationship, recently I met this Damsel in the hope of starting a relationship with her, my instinct told me to invite her to a church first which i did, she told me that she is a traditionalist that she doesn't go to church I thought she was joking until she sent me her picture she tight white garmet while practicing the stuff that she is an Ezewanyi.
She said though that her parents are christian but if she dare go to church that she must fall sick.
Wait oh !! Is Ezenwantyi that powerful with supposedly super natural power? If yes ,why was one easily kidnapped as reported on Nairaland recently?
guobe: When I went for a hair cut yesterday evening, I saw the burial poster of a young woman on the entrance iron lock door of the shop near the barbing shop.
I went through the burial poster and discovered that she died at the age of 40.I was inquisitive and asked the barber what happened to her and he told me she was the person that had the shop the burial poster is and she had Sickle Cell and died from it's crisis.
She died behind leaving her husband with 4 kids. I was completely broken with what she might have passed through in life. So so sad. I pray light guides her home . May her gentle soul rest in peace.
Adeui ma, may your gentle soul rest in peace with Almighty God! This reminds me of my beloved friend at Wesley High School, Oturkpo- Benue State Master Ogbole Ichapa that the cold hand of death snatched from us as a result of sickle cell complications. Master Ogbole continue to rest with the Lord.
dederocs: There are intelligent ways to do subsidy, Dangote can get trucks and deliver it himself to filling stations. Subsidy is how he can give back to Nigerians for being his main customer base down the years.
The greatest mistake of the Nigerian state was allowing the market forces determine the prices of petroleum Products for in country consumption. As it were, the demand for Petroleum Products are perfectly inelastic,as such considering the need for energy security a price modulation mechanism is apt otherwise considering logistics in the supply chain, the Offtakers will be swirled by arbitrage and price variability will take over.
SharonLoveth: • US officials have made early assessment of evidence -source
• First officer asked captain why he moved fuel switches and to return them to original position -source
• Air India CEO noted preliminary report found no mechanical or maintenance faults
WASHINGTON/SEATTLE, July 17 (Reuters) - A cockpit recording of dialogue between the two pilots of the Air India flight that crashed last month supports the view that the captain cut the flow of fuel to the plane's engines, said a source briefed on U.S. officials' early assessment of evidence.
The first officer was at the controls of the Boeing (BA.N), opens new tab 787 and asked the captain why he moved the fuel switches into a position that starved the engines of fuel and requested that he restore the fuel flow, the source told Reuters on condition of anonymity because the matter remains under investigation.
The U.S. assessment is not contained in a formal document, said the source, who emphasized the cause of the June 12 crash in Ahmedabad, India, that killed 260 people remains under investigation.
There was no cockpit video recording definitively showing which pilot flipped the switches, but the weight of evidence from the conversation points to the captain, according to the early assessment.
The Wall Street Journal first reported similar information on Wednesday about the world's deadliest aviation accident in a decade.
India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB), which is leading the investigation into the crash, said in a statement on Thursday that "certain sections of the international media are repeatedly attempting to draw conclusions through selective and unverified reporting." It added the investigation was ongoing and it remained too early to draw definitive conclusions.
Most air crashes are caused by multiple factors, and under international rules, a final report is expected within a year of an accident.
A preliminary report released by the AAIB on Saturday said one pilot was heard on the cockpit voice recorder asking the other why he cut off the fuel and "the other pilot responded that he did not do so."
Investigators did not identify which remarks were made by Captain Sumeet Sabharwal and which by First Officer Clive Kunder, who had total flying experience of 15,638 hours and 3,403 hours, respectively.
The AAIB's preliminary report said the fuel switches had switched from "run" to "cutoff" a second apart just after takeoff, but it did not say how they were moved.
Almost immediately after the plane lifted off the ground, closed-circuit TV footage showed a backup energy source called a ram air turbine had deployed, indicating a loss of power from the engines.
The London-bound plane began to lose thrust, and after reaching a height of 650 feet, the jet started to sink.
The fuel switches for both engines were turned back to "run", and the airplane automatically tried restarting the engines, the report said.
But the plane was too low and too slow to be able to recover, aviation safety expert John Nance told Reuters.
The plane clipped some trees and a chimney before crashing in a fireball into a building on a nearby medical college campus, the report said, killing 19 people on the ground and 241 of the 242 on board the 787.
NO SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
In an internal memo on Monday, Air India CEO Campbell Wilson said the preliminary report found no mechanical or maintenance faults and that all required maintenance had been carried out.
The AAIB's preliminary report had no safety recommendations for Boeing or engine manufacturer GE (GE.N)
After the report was released, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and Boeing privately issued notifications that the fuel switch locks on Boeing planes are safe, a document seen by Reuters showed and four sources with knowledge of the matter said.
The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board has been assisting with the Air India investigation and its Chair Jennifer Homendy has been fully briefed on all aspects, a board spokesperson said. That includes the cockpit voice recording and details from the flight data recorder that the NTSB team assisted the AAIB in reading out, the spokesperson added.
"The safety of international air travel depends on learning as much as we can from these rare events so that industry and regulators can improve aviation safety," Homendy said in a statement. "And if there are no immediate safety issues discovered, we need to know that as well."
The circumstantial evidence increasingly indicates that a crew member flipped the engine fuel switches, Nance said, given there was "no other rational explanation" that was consistent with the information released to date.
Nonetheless, investigators "still have to dig into all the factors" and rule out other possible contributing factors which would take time, he said.
The Air India crash has rekindled debate over adding flight deck cameras, known as cockpit image recorders, on airliners.
Nance said investigators likely would have benefited greatly from having video footage of the cockpit during the Air India flight.
Alusiizizi: Senate Approves Creation Of 12 New States 18, 2025 7:51 AM
In a landmark decision, the Nigerian Senate has approved the creation of 12 new states, marking a pivotal moment in the nation's political and administrative landscape. This historic move, following the third and final reading of the Senate Committee on State Creation’s report, aims to address long-standing demands for equitable representation and improved local governance across the six geo-political zones.
• South East: Anim (from parts of Anambra and Imo States) and Adada (from Enugu State) • South South: Toru-Ibe (from sections of Ondo, Edo, and Delta States) and Obolo (from Akwa Ibom State) • North East: Savanna (from Borno State) and Amana (from Adamawa State) • North West: Tiga (from Kano State) and Gurara (from Southern Kaduna) • North Central: Okura (from Kogi State) and Apa (from Benue State)
This expansion of states underscores the Senate's commitment to fostering national unity, inclusiveness, and sustainable development. It represents a significant response to widespread agitations for increased state representation and grassroots empowerment, promising to bring governance closer to the people and potentially accelerate development in previously underserved areas. An official gazette detailing the administrative frameworks for these new states is anticipated to be released soon.

Nice initiative, thought the representation is inequtable. Why was Ogoja missing in the log?
Chinjo2: This is how Ayade killed the dream of Donald duke. This is the same scenario playing out in Edo State where the governor is busy destroying everything that were done by Obaseki instead of him to build on them. Nigeria politicians are evil
The prevailing insecurities in the country was the root cause.
Kingpele: Prepaid meter is the best way ,our wife (my brothers wife) neighbour at the market is complaining that she parked into a new house and was told that the former tenant was owing up to 100k electricity bill and if she want the ight to be reconnected she should pay it ....the woman is yet to pay it and don't have light almost one month now....but with prepaid meter ,it can't happen ,is just pay as u use
Seconded. However, contact periodic meter integrity check to mitigate bypass by indiscipline tenant.
Nice initiative by our amaible Governor. However, why not charge some token for the sustainability of the scheme, in addition extend the service to the generality of Kaduna populace in the area of coverage.
U09ce: Since it's Lagos, it would be approved expeditiously and the job would be given to a good contractor. Other regions, revoke contracts from credible vendors and hand them to cronies who take till eternity to deliver the projects
You are really on point!! A case in point is the Kaduna - Abuja expressway that was revoked from JB .
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has criticised the opposition coalition working to unseat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.
Wike is right!! However, the paradox before us is that his excellency Dr. Aregbesola isa student of President BAT political tutelage.
EmperorIsaac: He was rich enough to buy a place in Medina for such. I hope though that he eventually accepted Jesus as His Lord and personal savior. That is the only guaranteed way to eternal rest. May God help those of us still alive to tread in the path of Christ (Amen).
May Pa Aminu Dantata soul find rest in the bossom of Almighty God. Back to your post !! Don't precipitate an unending debate on who goes to Almighty God hereafter.
WorldRichest: And the Yorubas including Wole Soyinka, Tunde Bakare and others saved Goatluck Jonathan from the hands of the then illegal president, Mrs Turai Yar’Adua. Dumb David Mark aligned with the core North to perpetuate the evil until the Yorubas invaded the NASS. Where were the South Easterners then?
David Mark was the purveyor and facilitator of the Doctrine of Necessity!
fuckingAyaya: Imagine American military telling Trump that they traced a terrorist to his hideout and neutralized some of his boy's but he narrowly escaped.
NB: on their own soil
They will regret the day they were born!! The POTUS don't associate with failures.
vicfajeze: Make them probe the yeye guy upon all d money him done embezzled
At any given time T, you will be insinuating a case of graft, official corruption and embezzlement in the NNPC Ltd, as if they illegally plug money from tree over there.
Chilipepper: We all face tough moments in life times when we feel overwhelmed, confused, or just need someone to talk to. Among this list, who is that one person you feel safe confiding in when things get really hard?
Nobody!! Optimism and surroundings everything to Almighty God is always my exit route.
Babangidapikin: The United States should stop living on old glory, they're countries with highly advance weaponry one that you cannot imagine.. it is going to be a David vs Goliath . Better talk to Israel to stop been the aggressor here, else you are going to start WW111. I believe the CIA has Seers you can ask them to confirm.
Man!! The little civil liberty and freedom you enjoy from terrorist and dictatorship today is as a result of the fear of United States of America!!
abc115: "Furthermore, I also confer posthumous national honours on Ken Saro Wiwa (CON), the leader of the Ogoni Nine and his fellow travellers, Saturday Dobee (OON), Nordu Eawo (OON), Daniel Gbooko (OON), Paul Levera (OON), Felix Nuate (OON), Baribor Bera (OON), Barinem Kiobel (OON), and John Kpuine (OON). I shall also be exercising my powers under the prerogative of mercy to grant these national heroes a full pardon, together with others whose names shall be announced later in conjunction with the National Council of State."
President Bola Tinubu
What a commendable Presidential gesture!! Now the national healing began.
AustineE1: While those aforementioned are assumed to be having peace of mind wherever they are,such can not be said about those evil leaders that passed away.Even if you do not believe in the religious view,nature has a way of rewarding bad or good. While their offspring here on earth may equally bear some of the consequences of their evil parents, Idi Amin,Mobutu Seseseko or even Osama Bin Laden's son will almost always need to hide their identities,as many people still bear grudges with their parents and often see these kid's as coming from evil offspring. Mahatma Gandhi's children will be revered and people tend to treat them with utmost kindness.
You can't say much on their state of sojourn in the life after! Perhaps they seek the face of God for forgiveness before death came knocking.
