TRADELYN:8000watts blender? That’s a lot of power; like 10 horse power. Are you really sure of what you are selling? |
Wasky101:Well, there isn’t much town planning here; the roadside don’t have tree shades for the people considering the day time heat here. The pedestrian walk ways have been take over by POS shacks.

Developing countries received the minimum from the exported Ukraine grain despite western nations clamor for help to poor nations Western nations lied when they claimed Ukraine needed access to sea shipping to alleviate the surging food prices and risk of famine in poor countries, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said. Most of the cargoes that came out of Ukraine under a Turkey- and UN-brokered deal with Russia went to the EU, Putin stated in a speech at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia on Wednesday. He added that he terms of the arrangement should probably be changed. Putin made the remarks in reference to the arrangement allowing civilian ships to enter and leave Ukrainian Black Sea ports to deliver grain cargoes. The scheme was put into action in late July, with Turkey hosting a center that coordinates the deliveries. The Russian leader noted that the deal was touted as a way to curb the surging global prices and help the most struggling nations. In practice, almost all of the grain shipped from Ukraine went to wealthy EU nations, he said. With an attitude like this, problems with food availability will only grow worse, Putin warned. On August 30, the UN Food Program reported that it had sent a second shipment with food assistance from Ukraine. The ship was carrying 37,000 metric tons of wheat grain to Yemen. Putin stressed that just two ships out of more than 80 that left Ukraine were actually traveling on hunger relief missions. Earlier this week, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused Western nations of failing to remove secondary restrictions on the export of food and fertilizers from Russia after the Ukraine deal was reached. The UN, which co-signed the agreement with Turkey, pledged to use its clout to have the restrictions lifted. https://www.rt.com/russia/562332-west-deceived-poor-nations-grain-putin/

confluence:According to the report, the government relies on the oil firms to tell them how much they have produced. What a shame! Sometimes I am just so tired reading any news about this country... the lunacy and idiocy is so sky high. I tire! |
carreport:The Vikings don in UAE has been in jail for over two months now. They he’d him incommunicado. I hope he had listened to me to quit this childish game but he didn’t. Now wife, kid are in agony. UAE opened their heart to us in the early 2000; even in 2010 upto 2015...UAE was fair to us. Then the NigeriaN agents started to abuse this openness; bringing in hundreds of youths to seek for job. Many wanted easy money other than the mundane security and cleaning jobs Dubai had to offer. They left job and setup bootleg liquor sales in park and at rented apartment. The ladies started prostitution. Earlier on it was a bit subtle...sitting a bar waiting for hook ups. They got brazen ...catwalking the city center in wide hips. That not enough, they started to rob exchange centers, shoplift at malls. It was just too much to bear for any country. ROSCO became so popular in UAE that they started to deny entries to females of certain age from a number of countries. The same ills done to UAE by Nigerians have been exported to Bahrain and Oman. There are no jobs in this region. The ladies there are running prostitution rings and bootleg beer joints. Some “agbor” boys are gaining notoriety for their Yahoo, sagging pants and rascality in this sleepy hot desert nations. We should expect more bans for Nigerians traveling to the Mideast I think we really need to look inward and stop this free-for-all-do-as-you-like mentality. That’s the same mentality that make us do “anyhow” here in Nigeria. We need to fix Nigeria. I bet you, you can never find this level of poverty seen in Nigeria in these nations like Qatar, UAE, Oman.... even ummalquwain the least Emirate in UAE does not have this level of depravity seen in Ejigbo -at the heart of mainland. See photo 3

I thought Amechi was a hands-on-deck kinda guy. This should not be happening under his watch. The adamawa company is dodgy and this contract, if true, smells of fraud. |
[quote author= post=116090618]Wailers will always wail, No matter the news. It's in them just like Peak Milk ![]() Happy Wailing ooo [/quote]Brother, you seem to always want to be on the side of government. I wonder why? Honestly brother, these guys both past and present have failed all of us. See this Omani airport below, it was built with 1.8 billions usd, that’s like less than a month of oil sales here and we have been unable to build a better one in Nigeria but rather we are patching broken tiles at MMI Airport (see photo). Isn’t it a shame? Please don’t support these crooks. They are really not doing us all well. Other countries have so left us behind. I feel so sad visiting other countries and they getting better and better every year and we in Nigeria are regressing. It’s sad.

Two can play that game. I think Zelensky and the SBU are playing a very dangerous game that may cost the lives of all those administering Ukraine at the moment. Russia has previously made it clear that the decision centers will be targeted. Members of the parliament, ruling party members, governing cabinet and the aides to the president. Zelensky is really pushing the envelope by targeting pro Russian administrators and journalist. Zelensky has been left unharmed because Russia needed someone to control the chaos in Ukraine while the war raged. They left the governing structure in place despite the feigned attack on Kiev at the onset of the war. It’s sad this clown thinks all of this is a comedy because he has been left vertical since the war began. |
HarryDuce:I think the better questions go be say: (1) who get akpo field? (2) who hire the tanker? (3) who load the tanker? Orobo no get just drive enter akpo to carry crude. Na big men runs wey cast be this. And no be today them don dey thieve the crude... na them them... ITT |
Politicians have failed this country. How come we keep pandering to their whims and caprices? But my people never want to learn from their past errors. They keep repeating the same over and over again. Why would any reasonable Nigerian ever follow folks like Reno and the kogi dude with exotic cars -what’s the name again? These are part of the political class whose policies are designed to enrich themselves at the expense of the masses. They are charlatans, frauds masquerading as political analysts. Look at the mess they have brought upon the economy, with idiocratic policies. The looming inflation will be on steroid for an import-dependent nation. Nigeria customs have raised surface duty to a minimum of 3 Million. For some age of cars - I think 2002-made cars and upward- are paying over a million duty minimum. It going to be tough for government to further raise revenue through customs. and they don’t have the brains to think of a more sophisticated taxing regime other than using “o wo mi da” boys for a largely informal economy. I am afraid the “Japa” exercise will continue. Many have lost hope on this entity. Doctors and nurses are leaving to west. Since this is a good export for an impoverished country, why can’t we build more nursing schools and medical schools? Train more of them and export to the west..... this is a no brainer! Nigeria needs a radical leader, a person with the cojones to stick a finger at the hornets nest and tell the rampaging politicians, “o to ge!” .... a person who will tell the Nigeria people, “ change your way.” ..... to the churches, “ stop the scam.” A leader who can think and enact policy that would revive the dearth of the nation. We need a Sankara! |
LifestyleTonite:I think the Ex-General has not had the chance to watch Africa Eye documentaries on banditry. If he had, then he’d have known that the military and police are failing. A national army is struggling to contain a bunch of armed aggrieved Fulani youths in their thousands who feel banditry and kidnapping is their own way of getting a share of the National cake just the way the politicians are doing. Aside the jihadi inspired violence on the Borno axis, The zamfara axis was an opportunity for the military to restore some lost pride after so many failures battling Jihadist in the NE. They should have made a minced meat of these boys in bushes of kaduna and Zamfara. Isn’t that a failure? Now the boys have grown so much balls from successful encounters with the Nigerian army and police, they are now threatening the central government in Abuja, even successfully raiding a HighSec prison. Isn’t that a failure? What’s the DSS doing? Why haven’t they infiltrated these boys in Bush for over many years? What do they do with their budget? Guarding politicians? Raiding opponents on the whims of the president? What do they do? If journalists can gain access to the bandits, then our intel folks are a failure too Let’s call a spade a spade... situation is difficult here. |
Well, if we really want to get this country off this mess, we must not give in to these two-tongued folks who often change allegiances when it suits their pocket. Keyamo was part of the current administration that did not live up to the hype in 2015. We don’t need any more hype to grow some brain. Like Reno, Sowore, Charlie boy, adeyanju, these folks are often after their own. Don’t ever take them serious. These are a bunch of educated morons who can not provide real solution to our problems. They could come on air and in script bamboozle you with jargons but give them a position of authority to make some change they fail woefully. Enough of these charlatans! |
OkoYibo:Okay, now it is so obvious who you are. Anyway, thanks for the chat. |
OkoYibo:Hmm... just curious; this thread is about Chimaroke Nnamani, not about Peter Obi. Why are you bringIng Obi to this discussion? I hope you are not one of ‘em paid warriors? Please don’t support Chimaroke... he is bad news, please! We are tired of these charlatans masquerading as saviors -thinking his sins are forgiven. |
OkoYibo:What are you saying? Is Chimaroke not the clown who was a doctor in the US, had the chance to rule Enugu state but absolutely misgoverned the state? This guy is an absolute crook, no doubt; stole so much from Enugu state and did nothing for them. Dude built estate and stole almost all of the housing in the estate for himself and cronies. Please don’t support this fraud. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/251170-n5-billion-fraud-10-years-arraignment-former-gov-nnamani-re-arraigned.html |
patrona92:“The stars are not aligned here.” BSC- current job—masters program are just so wide apart. This kin package go hard o! |
Jeval:I think the V.O. liked the fact that you were honest through out the interview. You know this US Visa thingy... sometimes honesty might work, other times mar. |
Shizzy03:I think the V.O. judged your application based on the fact that you had done masters in the USA and returned back to Nigeria. That’ would convince anyone that you are not an intending migrant. Congratulation |
[quote author=Presto12 post=115437361][/quote]“... been to Canada a couple of times” sealed the deal for you. Congratulation |
ImamOfPeace20:I think you had a good reply to her questions. But the issue I see here is funding.. you have to work on the funding part. - it appears a bit disjointed: 4500 from dad, 24k MPOWER Loan, a bit here and there. You know one thing about US visa, there are many factors that could convince a visa officer to grant a visa. From the onset of the interview, visa officers view every applicant as a potential migrant unless convinced otherwise. Forget that thing about open mind... their mind is closed until your circumstance convinces them to open up and take a look at your situation. There are many factors that could convince an officer to issue a white: good funding, working at a top tier firm, rich and popular dad, relevant course of study, appearing intelligent, good looks, and believe this -good vibes etc.. Try again, bro. |
james078:Hi James, I am writing this as a morale boost for your effort. I know you are frustrated when you read posts from people who are so deranged in view of Nigerian issues. I wish I had the energy at this age to follow up the crazies on NL who are paid trolls and the not-so-bright folks who view Nigeria as a stomach infrastructure project. A lot of us read these comments but are so turned off to comment because they are just too many kids on NL Who are so quick to show grass ignorance on matters. It’s frustrating fending ‘em off. I wish I had your energy. Thanks for fighting ignorance on this platform, and educating those willing to learn. Thanks |
techkay:First of all, so Many things went wrong in this transcript. The truth really did hurt you in this case: 5 years just to visit hubby with the kids Hubby supporting you all from his GTA The weight of your salary @ current position Read your transcript and put yourself in the position of VO whose primary task is to check migration from this end. |
xpressionx:Honestly, I do think our army are not adequately trained and equipped. Why day-light recon in thick foliage, not knowing they will be ambushed? This is no brainer Don’t they have a terrain map as a national military? With the terrain map, you know your waylay points and cut off points. Don’t they have night vision goggles? If they can’t afford military night kits, at least they could buy the cheap hunting night kit on JIJI. IR heat sensors can reveal the militants position in a forest despite camouflage I think for years our military have been siphoning off budgeted funds without buying proper gears for the men on guards; just AK47 only Either the commanding officers are poorly executing the counterterrorism operation due to lack of adequate training or due lack of equipments. Drones are cheap for Christ sake... the Russians have been successful at using these drones to hunt out dug-in enemies

Yankee101:If it’s a good export, why don’t we produce more of them: build more medical colleges. Let’s diversify the economy here. Their remittances will help our sorry state |
HybreedRep:Hi hybreed, I have some new appliances to sell, need customers. How can you help? |
ceejayro29:Hi ceejay,do you know any site that quotes daily USD parallel rates? |
dmostcheerful:Bro, you think dollar will fall by Monday? Please clarify |
matrixme:It has an extractor fan on the adjacent side to take the exhaust gas out. Look closely at the door, there are vent lines for fresh air. Basically, this is a box frame padded to cancel noise, and with an extractor fan to exchange air. Fan has been wired to the AC outlet of the generator. Once the generator is started, and power supply turned on, the fan rolls. I think price and copycats will be a hinderance to this innovation. A person on WhatsApp quoted 295,000 as preorder price. .. twice the price of elemax and more expensive than a 2kw “quiet” inverter generator. |
MALIGNANTGuest:I like the way they setup pancake shop and some other hangout joint next to the laundromat. Nice to relax while you wait out the washers. I wish we have this in Nigeria around the neighborhoods. People need facilities to make their live easier. The craze here in Lagos are supermarkets, but I wish they are more structured like malls with other facilities in them I have a friend who wanted to setup this laundromat (smaller scale) with gas boilers and semi-automated industrial washers. He wanted to bring in these machines from Korea. Running this setup with small generator will be difficult. I think if these honchos in charge of Nigeria can just give a thought the misery here and use a fraction of their wealth to just fix up this place. The country go nice.. |
Viscuz:It’s always some stupid intelligence report. They didn’t need to raid. Just get one of Aboki guys to pass you intel on who is the political honcho mopping up dollars... BDC is licensed to sell forex... raiding, if no warrant, creates another illegality that might bring the issue to court; and they will cash out. Stupid! Always going for the fingers... go for the head, damn it! Why do we even have DSS? |
shantti:You left the message (Spamming her Mailbox) to attack the messenger. She never attached you... she just put out a message that these folks should stop spamming her mailbox... now you jumped into the fray to attack her person, leaving out the message... does that seem right? |
