The biggest culprit is the mumu girlfriend that called the police for a man with a manic episode.

Unless she is white or spends all her free time watching E! she would have been following the news and known about the rise in the number of black men killed by police when doing nothing wrong or involved in petty misdemeanours (jaywalking/selling loosies)

Why the hell would any sensible black person in the US call the police on their loved one during a mental episode when stats show that 42% of those killed by police over a 12 year period had a form of mental illness.

Sylverly:

TB Joshua always see them before they crash (not so for his building thou, could be sacrifice to the gods)...and he always know where they crash


Just when his fame is going down, there comes another opportunity for him to pull a major popularity stunt

Just wait and see

Bruv u get winch?

There is a thread on the homepage about how Joshua predicted this.

The advert on that bus is pbotoshopped.

Vote Buhari/Osunbajo in 2015

Rubbish..... We need a picture with a note on it saying 'Olamides yansh' then we can help.

Thats Doreen Amamong..... Small world.

You can still travel to other countries but you will struggle to get a visa to any Schengen country, US and Canada. You still have to declare your previous immigration record whichever country you are applying to.

False.

Countries do not routinely share visa applicant details. You can apply for US, schengen or Irish visa but obviously you wont declare your deportation.

I personally know 2 people who have had UK home office wahala.

First guy was deported. Went to the high commission and applied for a UK visa with another name (before finger printing), collected 6 months, then 2 years and finally a 5 year visa. By the time the 5 year visa expired, the finger printing process had started so he has never bothered to reapply for a UK visa. Since then he has been to over 20 countries including the US and several Schengen countries. He has a house here he rents out so anytime he needs to come over, he flies to Ireland on his Irish visa and people wey sabi can fill in the rest.

2nd guy ran away from a police investigation and returned to naija. Kept coming in on his 2 year visa. When he reapplied, they pointed out the error of his ways in running from plod and They kukuma dash am 10yr ban. Since then he has obtained a student visa and studied in western Europe and has also applied for and obtained a 2yr US visa.

Bullshit.

Maybe it was the bloggers first time of flying.

The flight took over an hour (maybe 65 minutes) instead of the scheduled 55 minutes. And so what? Flight times are estimates.

I am not surprised at the bloggers rubbish story. I am more intrigued by the moderators putting this rubbish on frontpage.

A passengers opinion of a flight is not sufficient evidence that a plane is faulty and will crash. Reminds me of the morons at Channels TV interviewing an anonymous employee of Dana after the unfortunate crash. The anonymous employee had such a poor command of the English language and had not one aviation terminology in their vocabulary. She just kept repeating 'the plane engine was faulty'

Chiefpriest1:
No. Though the bible does not explicitly talk about gambling, nevertheless gamblers are driven by the love of money,especially sudden riches which the bible condemns.

What is the difference between a trader working on the derivatives desk at UBS and a man who goes to play Baba Ijebu?

Nothing! They are both betting on outcomes of events they have no control over. For some reason the guy at UBS would be seen as a respectable member of society but the guy going to Baba Ijebu will be viewed as some kind of outcast.

Double standards me say. If you dont think they are both gamblers, ask Kweku Adobili.

Bought £1 at N290 - GT Bank exchange rate

Please when is the next TB auction?

Wednesday 17 December

EGUNMOTORS:
91 DAYS – 10.050%

182 DAYS – 13.4900%

364 DAYS – 13.5800%

auction results for 1ST week of December 2014. 3/12/14

Rate don dey go up

Yes!!! Wa sèrè. Christmas go sweet DIE!

I upped my bid from 12.5% to 13% for 364 days after the CBN announcement. My hunch was correct. The analysts were way off!

obiak4:
proshare analysis to me is not exciting at all was expecting a double digit ++ for 91day let me just keep my finger crossed if not o.y.o

Exactly!

But they are the analysts/experts so I no go argue. 364 day Tbill was 12.4% last auction before the rate rise and devaluation, yet they reckon we should bid maximum 11.2% for 364 day Tbill.

Since the economic downturn of 2008 and Lehman Brothers collapse, I dont trust anything these analysts say. How come the thousands of analysts working in the major banking corporations didnt see the recession coming infact many of these organisatiins were consumed by it.

Can anyone recommend a real online platform I can use to trade Nigerian stocks.

Thanks

feelamong:
ok.. FBN coming to Range once again!!

just threw in my order at 9.28...

hopefully will buy the next batch at 9.00

Do you use a 'real' online trading platform to execute your orders or do you leave instructions with your brokers?

Seun:
When is the next auction?

Tomorrow Wednesday 3 December

weimar:
5. I think we too, can influence the purchasing price for TB, that is, if we all decided with one voice the amount we want to purchase TB. As for me, I am asking for 16-18% on 3 Dec 2014. I am certain I will make it this time.

Chei! You are making a nicca get greedy. I have already asked the bank to up my bid rate to 13%. Hmnnnnn. Decisions o!

An extra 3 - 5% is worth hundreds of thousands of naira to me... Maybe I should just sit out this auction. But then is a jump from 12.4% to 16% really feasible?

angelo82:
Officially,Interest rate is now 13%..........


http://www.proshareng.com/news/25226

Bro. That report long die and I am not too sure what to make of it. I already put in a request for 364 day Tbills on 3 Dec at 12.5%. Does this report mean I should increase my bid rate to 20%?

N3.78 close pf play yesterday.

After seeing his picture I am sure I have seen this man quite recently either at Squires on Dagenham Heathway or Lekki Lounge in Barking.

This kind of confirms Otigbas claim that there was no prosecution.

Chillisauce:
as at december last yr, the exchange rate from USD to naira was 158.
Now its 178

if you changed dollars to naira and had 12% as interest, you even lost so much money.
Do you know of any investment that would bring good returns while protecting your capital in foreign currency.
Fidelity looks good but im not sure what its going on for now.

This is a good point.

This is something I put into consideration. I changed my money at N248 and if I wanted to buy now it is N280. The good thing for me is I have no plans to change back to £s anytime soon. Like I said earlier, the money I have invested in T bills will have just sat in my account (If my fingers didnt get itchy) or more than likely would have been spent on a car.

I mentioned treasury bills to some people on a car forum. They obviously thought it was a scam that you can get 10-13% in Nigeria and up to 22% in Ghana. Some wanted to have a go but I let them know that because I am originally from Nigeria, I can afford to leave my money indefinitely in Nigeria but they on the other hand would be short term investors and there was a chance they may not get back the full capital due to exchange rate variations

justwise:
If i knew that this man is an immigration officer and he is in a position to deny other people visa because of fraud then hey yes! I will report him.

I will go extra ordinary miles to report him, i will not stop until he is necked and locked up.

What loads of nonsense....he has no moral right to deny anybody visa as a result of fraud since he is an immigration fraudster himself.

Good job the whistleblower!! You got the right man.

Please learn to read and understand. The man is/was a nurse at the Home Office. He is not in the position to deny/grant visas.

IMHO this is no crime. The speed at which such an old story was moved to the front page without any replies makes me suspect you are the whistleblower

Who be this whistleblower sef. Bad belle pipu. Lef the man na!

nitrogen:
We are getting there, liquidity level as at today is less than 100 billion naira, though FAAC should come in later, interstingly, Nibor rates are above 18%, God dey.

We are heading towards 13%, Insha Allah.

My bills mature soon and I'll be putting in a bid at 12.25% on 4 Dec.

I would have gone a bit higher, say 13% but I need to be successful otherwise Xmas go dull.

Thanks to Feelamong for opening this thread and to the others for their contributions. This thread has financially blessed me and has helped me to learn to save money.

I would have used the money I invested in Tbills to buy a new car which I didnt need and it would have lost half its value by now. Instead this thread prompted me to do something different. I took the plunge and went to Naija and I have not one regret. I have made just short of N1 million over the past 18 months and my capital still dey kankpe (subject to no civil war)

I still get that itch for a new car but my money being tied down and so far away means na for dream and picture I go dey drive that new car.

Anyone got the rates from the last auction on Wed 19?

CBN last updated the treasury bill page on their website in September. What a shame. Giant of Africa.

MacluvPH:
Youngman,forget this horrible excuses if you don't have questionable character they wouldn't ve picked you up.why out of many thousand students in that school its only you that they picked.please is there something you aren't telling us?Anyway sorry though.trying to prove a point.

You are either a slowpoke or you live in the hintherlands. When I was in uni, After any cult clash, the police will arrive about a day or two later and pick up anyone walking in the vicinity of where the clashes took place or a dead body was found.

seye4nii:
just reading about this tread 2day i think am so lucky to get here becoz have been thinking about TB, can i know the next auction please because i will be going to nija in 3days time and i will like to invest on TB b4 coming back to UK thanks everybody AM REALY HAPPY

If you already have an account in one of the sensible banks, you should be able to put in a request in time for the auction on 19 November.

I am assuming you plan to change pounds into Naira and deposit into the account. You must have your request to buy submitted by Monday 17 Nov and the funds must be in your account by Tuesday 18 Nov. If you want to be sure of success, ask the bank to use their bid rate.

If you dont have an account yet and you are planning to open one, you wont make next weeks auction. Earliest auction you can reasonably make is Wed 4 December.

I dont know this chap but I read on Forbes that Folorunso Alakija (Africa's richest woman) was one of the top speakers at the conference he was to host and was headed to.

Now we all know that Alakija was a tailor who miraculously became Africa's richest woman in about 10 years. Without having invented anything noteworthy or patented any medicine that cures a debilitating disease, I think it is safe to conclude that her money isnt clean.

I am disappointed she was listed as one of the top speakers at a Christian conference. They may as well invite Abramovic next year
