SOLD for 20k to this wonderful boss. He scanned it and it was original not fake drink



Thank you sir

This is the stuff of Clearance sales.

Very fast sale.

Happy buyer

Happy seller

Happy readers.

TimeManager:

Yes, he said it because he did it as Governor and when he became minister, the two key components of power generation and distribution had been privatized by the previous Administration with encumbrances in the contracts making it extremely difficult to terminate. The only major duty he had was regulatory and build capacity.

-kiss the truth!

You know my respect for Raji Fashola dissipated in 2015. This was my all time favourite Public Administrator.

He did two things that shocked me into
realising that there are no saints in Politics.

I watched him closely on TV as the Ministerial portfolios were being read out. He looked calm and apparently reflective. I felt that he would immediately after that jamboree meet with the President and decline at least one portfolio. He didn't and I knew that he was now an administrative disaster just waiting to happen.

Truly, the contracts governing the sale of the power distribution companies were not progressive or result oriented at least to the Nigerian people as represented by the government and worse still they could not be terminated. He said so in different fora and who could know better than Raji Fashola S.A.N? At that point the honourable thing to do is to resign from the position stating your reasons clearly.

Perhaps some of us would have forgiven his loose lip proclamation about the provision of public power not being rocket science.

flore1823:

Oga leave name calling and address points the buyer raised.
Just give a reasonable reason why you sent him a different AC when it wasn't what he paid for?
Nah so y'all always do once money reached your hand, address d issues and stop beating around the bush smh.

Sometimes I wonder if we actually allow our education to dictate our reasoning.

It beats me that several responses have supported the seller whereas the fundamental issue here......at least drawing from the evidence provided by the buyer in the chats exchange screenshots......;

Seller advertised items

Buyer made his choices from the advertised wares and informed seller.

There were delays in delivery .....avoidable or unavoidable but the issue was there was some understanding.

Items prepared for shipment and taken to the first option third-party delivery agent; GIG. Photo taken at GIG office with the chosen equipment wrapped.

Price exorbitant, second option; Venue Links tried price also high... Please note no pictures at this point.

Goods now delivered through a seller recommended but relatively unknown logistics company......I don't remember if there were pictures of the items at this point.

Good sent, delivered.

Buyer received items. Definitely not what he wanted.

A classical case of what I ordered vs what I got.

Today I decided to embellish my eggs with vegetables just to take the boredom out of regular scrambled eggs or the plainness of an omelette.

Pictures below.

Ingredients later.

Jackanda1:
I've never felt so pained and defeated. I didn't do any research at all.

I applied on the recommendation of a friend.

You need a minimum of three months to prove your actual value to the firm. In all tasks go the extra mile. Become almost indispensable. By the end of the first or second month they will try to preempt your request for a raise by paying higher that what was initially offered.

Take the increase quietly and then by the third or sixth month when the picture of your duties and contributions are clear you can sit down and negotiate hard.

epainos:

So, using Google is hard for you to find his old family ...the abandoned twins with their chocolate skinned mom....and his new yellow pawpaw he is carrying about?

And you think responding with some civility would do you any harm?

Not everyone on Nairaland is your mate Sir. If you met some people on this forum in real life you would genuflect to greet them.

Your English is quite good and that should ordinarily indicate some breeding and pedigree.....but alas that is not the case.

epainos:

This last part of the article cracked me. Reno that abandoned his family in the US and moved in with another woman in the UK.

Is this actually factual?

Rostikol:
He should use 200 million dollars and rebuild the National Stadium Surulere, and write his name in gold.

Having such big money is not about hiding it in a bank, or in assets, just so you can be high on Forbes list.

Spend the money on public works to help your countrymen.

If I were him, I would be looking to spend a minimum 3 billion dollars of that money on public works.

This is a very sad.
He does not owe you/us.

The money is entirely his.
He chooses how he should spend it.

You too can make money and then decide to build us a brand new stadium and hospitals and free hospitals and schools. We would be grateful.

It is only government that owes you these public structures.

Allow the man breathe. He has committed no crime.

I come in peace.

I took my time to read through the whole thread.

Two very pertinent questions came up as far as I am concerned.

If this man was a shareholder in Julius Berger, Nigerian Breweries, Cadbury or indeed any other First Rate MNC a d the company was awarded a contract, would this be our reaction?

Secondly, there has been stories of him being the most performing minister in this administration? Should we then throw out the baby with the bathwater?

It took a lot of convincing to get Barth Nnaji to come and take a Ministerial appointment. He started a great job and by now going by his antecedents we would have gone far with power generation, transmission and distribution. He was however sent home even when it was obvious that certain powerful elements wanted him out.

Even if his success is just the provision of passports for every Nigerian through a hitch fee and timely process then he deserves to remain in that seat perhaps with a strict warning.

Great thread.

Is there anyone here who is knowledgeable about Smart Collection?

It's a good everyday perfume to use while the expensive ones can be used for serious outings?

Better still...is there anyone in Nairaland selling smart Collection?

Lawn tennis is no longer used
Tennis is Tennis

This is very correct Sir.

The contemporary use is Tennis.

Even though I wonder about how Table tennis will no be described.

oladipuposadeeq:
most people don't know the actual spelling is weigh bill na primary school student correct me self I wan enter ground that day but we learn everyday sha 😪

Bros! I salute. I want to make a little contribution here.

The correct usage is Waybill.

Weighbill( or sometimes weightbill) even from it's simple etymology became acceptable because of preponderant use. That however doesn't make it right.

A similar example can be seen in the use of long tennis to represent lawn tennis. However after all said and done what is most important is effective delivery of meaning...... communication.

Sangoamadioha1:



My argument is that he is part of the problem and he is not happy petrol importation will soon stop. This is my opinion based on how i see it.
Because govt is not working on the one he wants then what government is doing is rubbish.
Pray, does he have monopoly of knowledge. The government, after due diligence, say this is the one we are starting with but Mr knowledgeable, who watched refineries collapse under him, says no it must be done his way or it won't work.

Ps Even under Abacha we were importing fuel (if you remember the time bad fuel came into the country during Abacha's time). The refineries started their decline under Mr knowledgeable's time.

You are expending a lot of effort to make this gentleman look bad before us.

You even went as far as assuming.......and even broadcasting the assumption that being a former M.D he must be involved in some dirt/fraud or another.

You will have heartbreak the day you did over that some people have attained great heights in government, worked their bum off without stealing a dime from public coffers.

If you had listened to the interview you would have known that this man is one person who tried his best in the circumstances he worked. That's the best he could offer then and that's what he did.

OssyMalik:
there's no where the product is sold for the amount you stated. I bought directly from the importer and I didn't buy at 5k.
The product is still available. Buy yours before it goes out of stock

Okay.

Best wishes.

OssyMalik:
I didn't buy it for 5k sef.
Still available in stock

It's a good brand but unfortunately, it has a lot of competition in the mainstream market.

The poster that offered you 5k is quite generous. It's a fair price.

Around Ikeja underbridge you will get this product for between 3.5 - 4.5 depending on the product origin and your bargaining ability.

Then again your sourcing price will also determine the selling price. If you buy at a high price you cannot offer competitive prices. And then there is the looming issue of delivery cost which further soars the cost of acquisition.

Think about it.

tugbala11:
yessooo

As an employer of Labour myself with an office in Surulere, once i saw your CV stating locations in Ipaja, Ikorodu, Abule Egba, Iyana Ipaja, Alagbado, Ajah, Akowonjo, Ojo, Ikotun, Mile 12, Ojodu Berger/Alagbole and other distant locations, you will never be called for interview because once you get started with work after the initial gragra and desperation to work, natural occurrence associated with coming and going from long distance will surely occur as we are human excpet you state that you have place(s)you can relocate or stay that would be close r to the office inside your CV or body of applications.

Most Nigerian youths dont think proactively in that line and see critical reasons why they are not getting enough or quality interview oppurtunities

What we experience as applicants/ organisational staff in this Lagos especially is Absolutely NOT ideal or normal. How can you be staying in Ipaja/Ayobo and go work everyday in Ajah? by time you do such for 6 months, 1 year or 3 years, how you expect to remain the same and not grow old prematurely? Thats absolutely insane! But some see it as normal. Some employers dont care wherever you will be coming from. Just ensure you get to work at assigned time

With me, good staff benefits, welfare and vibrancy matter in order for you to be productive

But to make, man/woman must survive!

This post exudes balance. Kudos Sir. You captured this very well. With the soaring costs in transportation you actually get better value when you live as close as possible to where you work. There is no science in the matter. The only problem we have now is that people don't do any analysis anymore. All they ask is " what is the offer?"

valentineuwakwe:
Who even takes Reno seriously? A man with a rogue past and family life....abegi

Sometimes I really wonder how low one man can sink.

Despite all his education and exposure this man keeps hitting unprecedented lows.

Peter Obi, Atiku and Tinubu do not owe Mr. Ibu in this matter. Neither does Dangote, Otedola or Maduka.

It's a humanitarian cause and has to be done voluntarily. What Reno is resorting to is very cheap blackmail. This is even enough reason for Peter Obi to refrain from helping in this particular case.

I hate to think that a fully grown human being can play this kind of stupid game even I. The face of this calamity.

Truths9ja:
bros. It happened not once not twice not thrice to humans. There are some hours for this body we are carrying about can work. Ok

Different human capacities. Understand yours and work accordingly. Don't overstretch yourself because of the bait.

You could be causing problems for others. A supervisor can be sacked for ignoring your tardiness.

I rest my case.

Truths9ja:
I don hear you ok.

Bros no be fight abeg. I come in peace. I am just one always trying to see things with some form of balance and objectivity.

Sleeping on duty!

How does that sound to you?

Just imagine what can go wrong just because one person fell asleep on duty.
