He would have listened to his sister. She was right afterall. If she is a good person she would have proved his family wrong. Peoples perception of others change by thier actions. |
Languages you can profit from after school: 1. French 2. Arabic 3. Spanish 4. Chinese (Mandarin) 5. German |
We have graduated from a corrupt country to a very corrupt county. Back then people bought certificates to get jobs, now people buy certificates and buy jobs.... then still buy appointments. |
Someone's gonna pay for this. The marriage has kicked off with a bang. |
Too bad, car issues can be frustrating. But if i may say this, you didnt buy a lemon, you bought a poorly maintained car. The issues you are experiencing was due to the previous owners poor maintenance culture. That car come with thesame engine and transmission in a corolla that is regarded as bulletproof . The term "Lemon" is American English for a vehicle that turns out to have several manufacturing issues affecting its safety, value or utility. Any vehicle with such severe issues may be termed a lemon, and by extension, so may any product with flaws too great or severe to serve its purpose. Your issues are not a manufacturing defect but consumer abuse and neglect. Good luck on your ride. |
Toyota are reliable, so reliable that their value holds up better than some luxury brand names like.... Make i no find trouble. This is not a Nigerian thing either. In America, Australia & Europe, Japanese cars are generally more reliable because they are less complicated, boring and they stick to their winning formula. Toyota is amongst the top 3 most reliable car brands for years. The best selling car in America and the world at large is the Toyota Corolla which is also the most sold car in history with over 50 million units since 1966. All these figures and accolades are verifiable facts and statistical data compiled over the years from across the globe. Honda is also very reliable and always on Toyota's tail but some little issues with previous models in the past put them behind. If these cars weren't so good their sales figure will show it . Toyota ranks 11th in Forbes most valuable companies in the world, the next auto brand is Mercedes Benz at number 23. |
Go with the CRV 2008 PROS; Its easy to maintain Trouble free Good ride hight Good looking Women look good in it Space for groceries CONS; Resale value Not a fast car Not luxurious Not third row seat No V6 option |
Go for it, very reliable car. At par with Camry |
The Matrix shares thesame reliability with your Corolla, same engine and gearbox, but a more stylish exterior and practical interior. Its more or less a wagon and seats fold to carry more load. The 2008 Rav4 is not as reliable, there are complaints with the 4 cylinder burning oil while the V6 has transmission issues. I have had friends with bad experiences but from 2010, Rav4 has a new engine and more reliable. For rest of mind go with the Matrix or Rav4 from 2010. |
tsdarkside:It isnt funny, it is life. It isnt strange either. The black race comes in many colors, from dark skinned to light skinned some even as white as the Caucasians, but have you seen a black Caucasian? In the US, a black person is anyone with any known African black ancestry. This definition reflects the long experience with slavery and later with Jim Crow segregation. In the South it became known as the "one-drop rule". meaning that a single drop of "black blood" makes a person a black. It is also known as the "one black ancestor rule," some courts have called it the "traceable amount rule," and anthropologists call it the "hypo-descent rule," meaning that racially mixed persons are assigned the status of the subordinate group. |
tsdarkside:Dont be Silly being mixed has nothing to do with it, one of Ghana's great leaders; Jerry Rawlings is mixed. There are many more who love their black heritage, hope you know Bob Marley was mixed. |
3 of the top ten deadliest terror groups are terrorizing Nigerians and this country is still intact, against all odds. This is truly Gods own country! God bless Nigeria, my country. God bless Nigerians, my people. |

She has set her standards, she knows what she wants so its left for you to meet up to her level or go for your level. Atleast she let you know why, others will just leave you and jump ship..... If she isnt already, behind your back! |
The brand you see the most on the roads are the best. The ones you see the most in mechanics are the worst. |
iskalamong:You'll need to visit a phone repairer, nothing i can tell you from here will help. Besides i havent heard of teclast before. |

GrandMufti:Nigerian banking apps dont search for root so they work. But most countries abroad dont. I stated that already. |
Rooting makes you a SuperUser and removes all restrictions and the inbuilt security Android provides, its like removing all the margins and lines of an exercise book leaving you with plain white paper for you to scribble as you wish. It comes with advantages & disadvantages but if you are not tech savvy, developer or mobile security expert its best to avoid rooting. A small mistake will render a rooted phone useless because all protections & restrictions are off cos you now have access to system files which you may not understand. ADVANTAGES: 1. Full customisation; from boot screen to custom recovery to a custom rom and total redesign of your homescreen. If you dont understand the terminology i used then avoid rooting until well read! 2. Downgrade/upgrade Android Os or installing custom roms that add more functions and or tweaks. 3. Rooting will allow you alter or remove restrictions on some apps and also install some outdated/banned/region blocked apps. 4. It allows you to modify or instal modified/tweaked kernels and governors. 5. You can undervolt or overclock the processor of the phone. I undervolt to save battery life, then change governors. This was one of my major reasons for rooting back in the day when phones came with small batteries. To be honest most people dont need all that power in our phones that causes over heating and battery drain. 6. With rooting you can improve camera quality by installing third party cameras, google camera, or modify init.d scripts. 7. It allows for changing of imei, which is illegal and can send you to jail in some countries. There are many other things rooting allows, although these days some of these things can be done without rooting but there is always a catch, were as rooting gives total freedom. DISADVANTAGES Disadvantages mostly affect noobs, people who lack the understanding of rooting cos it is highly technical. 1. It exposes you to malware and cyber intrusions because you have lifted all android restrictions and compromised the security model of Android. Rooted phones will no longer install official updates and security patches to keep your phone safe & secured. But if you are rooted with Magisk and understand how to modify boot.img then there is a way of installing OTA.... I hope i havent lost you here? 2.You can mistakenly delete or tamper with system files thereby turning your device into a brick. 3. Banking apps abroad check for rooting and will not work on rooted phones as a security measure to protect users. Something our banking apps dont do but should. For you banking apps to work you must do some added stuff called "magisk hide" which is not a 💯 guarantee. 4. You can mistakenly wipe you system/os if you dont know what you are doing. There is also a way to reinstall.... If you know what you are doing. 5. It voids some warranties & return policies in some countries. The 2 major disadvantages are the banking apps & exposure to security risks. The rest comes from mistakes and not enough knowledge on rooting. Rooting and being a SuperUser is what makes Android fun, its not for everyone. If you dont want you can always unroot the phone back to stock. Hope my explanation was easy to understand. |
AdamuKD:The parents stayed home and sent their kids this time. As someone asked, what were kids doing in a polling unit? |
sukkot:You missed my point. Chose whoever you feel is the right leader, whats right for me may not be whats right for you or anyone else but let our right not be solely because we share same language or comes from thesame region. I did not put any names here, how does this sound as dictatorship? In dictatorship you have no option/choices & no opinion. |
While the beatings went on, fellow Nigerians, human beings stood and watched because it was not their sister or tribes person. They stood and allowed a woman, maybe someones wife, or mother get beaten to a pulp and dragged like a dog! Nigerians, slowly loosing their sense of humanity. |
Nigeria's problem lies in Tribalism & Religious sentiments. Even when its evident that our own is bringing us down, how has it favored the North or Nigeria at large? Nigerians, wake up and choose the right leader. Let your conscience guide you and not the color of your skin, the language you speak or where you hail from. |
Both iconic stars, Stallon had Rocky & Rambo while Arnold had Terminator, Commando & Predator. Arnold Schwarzenegger remains the bigger star! I am sure 80% of Stallons fans didnt know he started off as a porn star. |

Anambra is just devouring its prominent citizens. |
Ancecoker:Lol. Before your pastor comes, person wey get mind don carry am dey go BDC. You have to call your pastor to pray, you no get mouth? Abu your pastor na God PA? |
This is in South Africa. Cultural differences allow such to happen without much fuss. Nigerians always castigate, bring in religion and all manner of self righteousness but given the slightest opportunity we will do worse. We should accept that Africa is culturally diverse, whats morally accepted in one country is not in another. In South Africa women may choose to go naked when celebrating their Zulu festival, the Zulu reed dance and other ritual rights. They dont look at nudity the way we do. Cultural differences will not allow our woman walk naked on any occasion. |
IslamIsIdiotic:We were fooled twice from 2015 but we no just get shame! Abeg this your saying get space for the third time? We may just remix this old saying into "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me thrice, i no just get shame". |
