WebmastersRe: How Do I Fix This "Problem Uploading Post" Issue? by opson2016(m):
I already have how to resolve this issue on my website, but let's solve it here.

Try clear the cache on your phone. You can use CleanMaster or any other cache cleaning application of your choice.

For me, I don't use any of the applications. I do it manually.

This is how you can do it:

Click on settings

It will display options

From the displayed options, click on "Apps"

It'll display all the installed applications on your phone

Allow Apps load

Click on.first Apps

It'll display options

Look for "Clear cache" click on it to clear cache

When that's done go back to click on the next Apps,

Repeat the process till you're done with them all.

Switch off your phone, allow it to cool down and switch on again.

Caution:
Pls don't click on clear data.

If that didn't work, lemme know I'd give you teach you another option.

Npower Update:

Npower commissioned firetoms to send ref number.

Dear Applicant is intentional-- Npower Technical staff


A technical staff member has given reasons why it started using genetic email like Dear Applicant, and why npower commissioned firetoms as their consultant.

It'd be recalled a publication on infobase about conflicting reference emails sent to applicants elicited reactions from Npower team, applicants, and firetoms.

Earlier in the week, i received a call from a guy who claimed firetoms was a consultant to npower, he refused to mention his name which made me doubted him.

To clarify this I called the support centre and was directed to the technical unit.

A lady who spoke with authority said Npower commissioned firetoms because Npower went through downtime period.

What is Downtime Period?

She spoke about other other issues:

is not a matter of dear Applicant, they said mails from no-reply@firetoms.com are fake.
A guy called me this morning saying he's from firetoms. He said he got my phone number on infobase, but he refused to identify himself.

He however said firetoms is a consulting firm to Npower. I'm yet to believe him since he refused to identify himself.

I'm doing everything possible to get to the root of the matter. If he said he's a consultant to npower but refused to tell me his name, it means something is wrong .

All messages sent to Npower on Facebook got no reply. When I called I was told they're not aware of firetoms

I'm sure something is hidden about firetoms.

He was reacting to an infobase report entitled "Watch out! Scam npower reference number in circulation"


Is it true that the said firetoms is a consultant to #Npower?

And is #firetoms has the order from Npower to send reference number to applicants?

If the domain email is from Npower.gov.ng it means you're safe.

But if it's from noreply@firetoms.com it means it's from another website posing as Npower.

What I'm saying is if you got it from firetoms try and call Npower support centre to ask, and I'm sure you'll be told any email from firetoms isn't from Npower meaning it's phishing

Well, I think I'd be stupidity to exchange abuse with you Ill only urge you to check other threads I've written on nairaland even at the initial stage of Npower when there were no support centre numbers, I published my telephone number, and I've assisted lots of people in that regard.

So, you're entitled to your opinion, OK?

And for your information, some applicants have confirmed they did get such scam email.

The Npower email you got might be from a scam website.

This is because fake Npower reference no is already in circulation.

Acknowledgement of your application


We hereby acknowledge receipt of your application and documents. Your unique application reference is "NPTC 1986664518". Please keep safely for future reference and access to your N-power portal. Your application will now be processed and documents reviewed. Once your application has been fully processed, you will receive further information via your email and also via your portal account. You will require your username and password to access your portal account. If your email or telephone number change in the future, simply access your N-Power portal account and update your record.

I think Npower team is trying to figure out how the screening is going to be handled. That's the major reason application was extended. That's just the truth.

In my next article on my website, I'm going to address the ups and Downs of Npower registration.

Wish you all the best.

CrimeWhat Are The Causes Of Everyday Jungle Justice In Nigeria? by opson2016(op): 5:54pm On Jul 20, 2016
The spate of jungle justice in Nigeria is increasingly becoming worrisome.

Several suspects have been killed along the way, while some suspects have sustained life-threatening injuries before police could come to their aid.

Some of the instances of jungle justice are:

Laptop thief beaten to death in Lekki, Lagos

Rapists burnt to death Benue

Phone thief stripped naked in Abeokuta and lots more.

Why do we have cases of jungle justice in Nigeria everyday?

1) Is it because of poverty in the land?

2) Is it because of no confidence in the police

3) Wickedness

4) Or because thief isn't meant for our society?

Jobs/VacanciesKidnappers Use SMS Job Interview Invitation To Kidnap Job Seekers by opson2016(op): 7:31am On Jul 11, 2016
KIDNAPPERS in Rivers State have devised a new means of getting at their victims and making their families part with huge sums of money as ransoms.


It was gathered that kidnappers had begun to send text messages, inviting their victims for job interviews but they hold them hostage as soon as they turn
up at the addresses given to them by the abductors.

A civil servant in the state, who simply identified himself as Joseph told Southern City News how a friend’s cousin was kidnapped after honouring an invitation for a job interview.

Joseph said in a text message sent to our correspondent, “Don’t honour any job interview invitation via sms if you did not apply for it. A family friend’s cousin got one of such sms and he attended the supposed interview only to be held hostage.


“His family was contacted and asked to pay N5m. As at yesterday (Saturday), the kidnappers told the family that theywould accept N2.5 million, which the family cannot afford.

“The guys (kidnappers) are threatening to kill him (their victim) by today if the money is not paid latest today (Sunday).”

When contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Nnamdi Omoni, told Southern City News that he would brief the Anti-kidnapping Unit of the
State Police Command on the new development.


Omoni promised that the command would put measures in place to ensure that those behind the dastardly act were arrested and brought to book.
