She wants to start a boutique business after graduation. She must be entrepreneur inclined. I am not defending or speaking on her behalf. Just thinking aloud. LOL...

Obiodunukwe:
Sad situation

However the title of the thread and the newspaper headline is inaccurate

Using sensationalist headlines such as- IGBO girl kidnapped or abducted does not represent the true facts

This girl voluntarily through a web of lies left her home to be with this evil people. They didn't kidnap or abduct her

I pity her mother but the truth is teenagers are very gullible and do not think things through . It is the duty of parents to bring up their children properly. How can a mother allow her child (a 14 year at the time) to go to another church and then spend days there for a retreat ?

This is a typical story of a gullible and Ill trained teenager being taken advantage of by religious zealots. And this has been going on for centuries. In the south, many youths leave their homes to join SU evangelical teams that travel across the country, some join Christian and Muslim sects that steer these young ones from their families and education.

There is very little the government can do but parents can do so much by nipping evidence of disobedience in the bud much earlier.

Will u shut your mouth already. Dont pretend you dont know about christains been kidnap in secular arab countries like syria, iraq, pakistan. They are brainwashed or forcefully co-erced into converting to islam. In islamic countries, this is not a crime. This trend is fast spreading in nigeria. Its time the national assembly rise and pass a bill that will punish individuals who indulge in this act or else this phenomenom might mark the beginning of a new systematic religious warfare in a secular country like nigeria. Imagine if other christain dominated regions of nigeria decide to start the same act. Its a matter of time before we have another crisis in our hands. This culture is alien to nigeria. We better squash it before its too late. The earlier the better.

Will lynching a gay solve their economic woes? Rather than kill (whichever way we look at it is sinful) a gay for his sexualty, they could be banned from the society or allowed free passage to countries where their kind is welcome.

Lamexx:
Permit me to say that the Op was very foolish. As soon as u lose ur ATM card, you call the bank customer care to block your account. You don't even need to go to the bank. Just go online and copy their customer care number and call them.

Back to your question, yes I don't need to know your pin before I make transaction with your card online. All you need to make purchases online on international merchant sites like Ebay is the name on the front of the card, the card number on the front of the card, the expiring date of the card and the three digit Security number behind the card. So if you are in the habit of doing "big man" and giving ur ATM card to someone else to make withdrawal, you are at risk of an online card fraud and trust me you cannot sue the bank then. They will simply deny you that's why you are asked to protect your card and card details

But do you have to insult him? Its comments like yours that discourage victims from sharing such experience on forums like this. I dont understand why we are quick to insult others just to prove a point.

Seems Ops facebook account was hacked and his ATM credentials was used to enable social media platform banking. It seems social media banking does not require the use of PIN for authentication (somebody should confirm).
We shouldn't blame the bank this time, the customer should have blocked the account on time.

Another security loophole in the banking system.

Lesson to all construction companies in Nigeria. "Please stop employing quack building contractors". The nigerian building industry has been plagued by this phenomenon. It is high time we standardize this industry.

Severe climate change is taking a serious toll on our everyday life. Nobody should scream blue murder as we all consume meat, beaf, suya and ll the derivatives of cow meat. Instead of shouting "Kill the Fulani herdsmen", we should all sit down (the fulanis inclusive) and ask why the sudden upsurge of farmland invasion in the nation.

This problem will persist if we refuse to talk and rather blame the other party. The truth is, if we decide to chase the fulanis out of the country, are we going to stop consuming meat or are going to import substitute?
I believe this problem is multi faceted and there isnt a one off solution as we can only manage it.
Before somebody asks that i be hanged (LOL) , please ask yourself "Do i eat meat". If you do, then "YOU ARE ALSO CULPABLE".

Handcuffs! Really..

What Lekki Gardens did was wrong, no doubt, but handcuffs!! Common!

I am sure you would ask that they be gagged in the mouth if you had a relative among the dead. In russia and sane countries, they are prosecuted and tried in cage. I pray they are jailed so that other fraudulent construction companies out there will learn a lesson. It is terrible to imagine how heratless we have become as humans. Endangering the lives of others just so we can satisfy our sense of greed. As we speak, many construction companies still employ the services of unqualified building contractors. Its high time we respecting the life of a fellow human in this country.

The country is suffering because a large number of laws as regards land and its ancestral inhabitants was bundled and delegated by people who are alien to the regions in question, all in the guise and aid of a fraudulent land use act perpetuated without the consent of the aborigines.
The statement of the so called king, who claims that his power of supervision spreads from his kingdom to as far as Ogute is everything equal to fraud. The region he so claims spans over two LGAs in edo state which has people of different tribe and dialects.

These whole crisis does boil down to the continous existence and refusal to abolish an obnoxious, few serving and archaic land system that does nt serve the interest of the average nigerian.

MadCow1:
Na blood be that?

This looks like a bomb

So if there was no blood then its not a bomb. Nigerians go kill person with laughter...LOL

It doesn't. Microsoft issues regular updates every 10th of the month which include malware, adware and any-ware checks. They make sure to stay up to date by employing hackers who routinely hack their OS and applications. From forums I've stumbled across its common knowledge Apple hardly update their OS or create patches.


Same way most viruses work. Same Modus Operandi, different name.


Probably a 2015 means of attack. Before this article I never heard of something employing this method.

Your best against a ransomware is to regularly backup sensitive datas. Is there any OS update or patch that has not been compromised? You as an administrator do not want to listen to microsoft developers lecturing you on why you should backup your files despite assuring you of its OS update. 4096 bit RSA encryption keys is not an admin's nightmare, its the worst nightmare.

antispexish:
They sha want the naira devalued sha!. They will not succeed.!

They want us to devalue the naira so as to make manufacturing costlier, thereby killing the local industry. Subsequently, they will take over our economy and dictate our policies. Angola yielded to the advice of IMF and today their economy is struggling to recover even as oil prices have dipped. If the CBN finally devalues and we remove import restrictions, its only a matter of time for coke to be sold for 200 naira.

charix:
Simple solution: Speed up the time to make updates. Case resolved.

It goes beyond OS update. The mode of operation of a ransomware seems legit since file encryption is basic to the system operations. In this case, it is done without the approval of the device user.

To use the analogy of a house you own. The house is built with a door so you could lock the door to prevent unsolicited access by unwanted users. Imagine, someone approaches your house when you doze off on you doorstep and locks you out with a padlock that is encoded with number combination .

what is the max speed?

He is lucky there is petrol scarcity.

Like the french will say "Terri-bley". Do we still have a minister for power?

And there is a ggovernor in akwa ibom who is enjoying the show.

Propaganda... So only the terrorists died? We are not fools

If you are tired of the results the NA, get a backpack, a compass and googgle map. Find your way to sambisa forest. Nonsense.

Honest technocrats not pilfering politicians.

If it is true that a court in kaduna had granted the gwaris full ownership of the land in question, then the governor and his govt should respect the rule of law. What is the essence of democracy when you have no respect for court judgements.

In america, the states have 80%control of the resources within their domain while in nigeria...............fill in the gap.

A crime anyways is a crime. I know a greedy grassroot politician that wastes over $3,000 weekly on forex that he knows natting about. I just hope this one learns a lesson and change his ways. Fraud is crime, no matter how u look at it.

PDPs 16 years ruledid more damage than abacha loot. Never again will PDP rule this country.

Google has done more good than harm. Op, is just being silly for believing that everything written on google search engine is originally google.
I use google only when it suits the situation and not a matter of health.

Has river state governor been impeached?

There are many Freddy Kruegers walking amongst us.

qualityovenbake:
The Mile 12 Ethnic crisis, involving Hausa Vs Yoruba happened (at Ikorodu ),

The 3 kidnapped secondary school girls happened (at Ikorodu )

Now this guy was hacked with machete to death at Ikorodu

Too many killing in that area, what is happening at Ikorodu ?

Population explosion

Someone would have to interprete the thread to fulbe cause there aint many literate fulanis on nairaland.

airsaylongcon:
Jamb is really screwing this CBT up. But as with all software, I guess their solution is exhibiting the bathtub curve where there's a huge number of failures at inception. Don't worry guys it will be resolved at subsequent exams

This is nigeria. You cant be too sure it will better next time. Jamb has a lot, lot of explaining to do.
On a advisory note, jamb should liase with ALPHABET INC or MICROSOFT. I am sure those ones would be willing to give helpful tips on how to handle huge datas that require realtime processing.

Mprepz:
I just fear for what Boko boys are planning right now

In the face of humiliation and defeat, the sect tries hard to balance a psychological hold on the populace by carrying out carefully planned, deadly attacks, which in most cases attracts floods of criticisms geared towards the govt and the security agencies. This is a phenomenom that modern day terrorists have gotten accustomed to. This is why security cannot be left to security agents alone.

Everyone has to be involved.

Op, try get a ultra violet ray protector. The light emmited by electronic devices like laptop and smart phones can cause cumulative fatigue that can be detrimental to the eye especially if you are already suffering from mild eye defects. The EM wave emanating from a computer device is similar to that of the sun, difference been the wavelength.

We need to introduce capital punishment for kidnappers and pipeline vandals. If proper investigation is carried out the police will discover that the suspects are also into pipeline vandalismor bunkering.
The message has to sent out there in clear text; "NO MORE FREE MONEY". If you want to make money, then you will have to earn it.
