Travel / Re: Flood Destroys Bridge On Yola-Numan Gombe Road by pak: 12:10pm On Sep 24
The only option for travelers seeking to leave Yola now is to divert at Ngurore junction and connect Jalingo-Numan road to burst out at Numan and continue the Journey onwards Gombe.

The problem with that route is not even the distance but the fact that those roads are probably the worst in the whole of Nigeria
Health / Re: Top Cleanest And Dirtiest States In Nigeria 2024 by pak: 1:56pm On Aug 27
Only Uyo (Akwa Ibom) can claim to be cleaner than Gombe State.
Gombe should be in the top 3.
Jos is trying but no, you cannot compare it to Gombe.

Kano is the dirtiest state in Nigeria - full stop!

Family / Re: Woman On Vacation During Husband's Funeral Apologizes For Her Absence(photos) by pak: 1:49pm On Aug 27
CyrusVI:
cheesy

From a normal(Philosophical) standpoint, she hasnt done anything wrong. The ex-husband is gone, why would u put your enjoyment on hold to honor a dead person that doesnt even know anything anymore

From a cultural POV, she's wrong.

Its why Our cultures and traditions should be followed even when they seem illogical to us. They may not really mean anything serious but they still do mean something serious


Therefore, Shes right and wrong and her apology is both needed and needless


From a "Philosophical" point, you would have realised she could not even be bothered to be by his side in his dying moments and was not willing to honor him when he was alive and sick

It's like there's a monarch in every street in the West.

Title is a bit of a click bait. He isn't technically a monarch.
Riverine communities are often grouped in small cluster of houses and each cluster will have a Baale who answers to a larger authority somewhere.

Politics / Re: Food Importation Will Erode Gains Made In Rice, Maize, Wheat — Naija Farmers by pak: 7:58am On Jul 11
Tokskob2008:
Instead of foodstuffs to get cheaper because we now rely on local production it got more expensive.

Which gains have the local production witnessed for the past 9yrs


God bless you abundantly for this.

The goal of all this ban on importation was to improve the economy, create more jobs and make food cheaper cos they are locally produced.

But what do we witness?
The economy has gone from bad to worse, unemployment is sky high and most food items have had tenfold increase in price since the domestication process began. So why should we stick with what is clearly not working ?

Infact, bringing down the cost of food will lead to lower unemployment because consumers will now have disposable income to patronise other businesses

She's had at least 2 husbands from all accounts.

Memories
30+ years ago, my father left everything in Lagos behind and invested all he had in Fish processing for exports in Ilaje.

One of his biggest mistakes, he never fully recovered

I wish the new crop well

I am in love with the strike force of your second team. Van Basten is my all-time football hero. Romario (I'll never forget Man-U vs Barcelona (1994 season Champions League). Honourable mention goes to (Mr) George Weah.

I'll be back with my list.

Naptu2, this is from 12 years ago. You never replied with your list.

Still waiting bro.

For me, the only (painful) change I'll make is to put CR7 on the left attack and move Cryuff to team 2

Crime / KD Boy (13) commits suicide after allegedly being brutalised by Soldier (Vid) by pak: 4:18pm On Jun 09
A 13 year old Wisdom Hasimu has committed suicide after allegedly being brutalised by a Soldier and members of the civilian JTF over an accusation that he stole N10k from the Soldier's 16 year old girlfriend.

The case is said to be with the Kaduna state Police command but I guess this story should get some publicity so that it does not get swept under the carpet.

The incident happened some days ago and was reported by channels TV yesterday

Programming / Re: Haskell Or Generally Functionnal Programming Is The Future For Me by pak: 4:45pm On Jun 02
melodyogonna:
what's all this noise about haskell recently how is it better than languages that are both functional, procedural and object oriented at thesame time like python and c++?

Python (my primary language) implements certain functional concepts but it is not a purely functional language.
It still primarily imperative.

Sports / Re: Edo Queens Wins Nigeria Womens Football League by pak: 7:33pm On May 27
naptu2:


That's just the Super 6. There is a regular season (the teams are divided into 2 groups of 8 ), then the top 6 teams at the end of the regular season play a Super 6 competition to determine the winner of the league.

The French League does something similar with their Super 4 Playoff.


Thanks for the context

Food / Re: What Is The Nutritional Difference Between Butter And Margarine? by pak: 4:28pm On May 10
CosmeticChemist:
Butter is of animal fat origin, while margarine is derived from the hydrogenation of vegetable fat ( fat of plant origin).

Margarine is usually more healthy because it is lower in saturated fat.

Oli used in the production of margarine, are usually fractionated before hydrogenation.

This is my favorite answer

Have you ever been invited for an interview by crossover for work?

What was the experience like and what should I expect?

What kind of questions are they likely to ask ? and is there any kind of preparation I can do to increase my chances ?

It's taken almost 6 months of assessments and multiple attempts to get to this stage and I am really hoping I can get the offer.
