don't worry GEJ we have seen the much u can bleed for this country. u have played ur part in under-developing this country. thank u very much!!!

what do u make about this statement from minister for information, culture and tourism lai mohamed.....

" I think it will be tragedy for this country for PDP to come back because they have not even apologised to the nation for how they destroyed our economy, destroyed our infrastructure, destroyed our qualities, and so far from their campaign,…ask them, they have not told us how they will do things differently from what they did to get us here."

TheSuperNerd:
The point you've made is all fine and good. A slay mama or slay queen is a mundane and Vain idiot aiit.. I get it.

Buttttt.... going by dictionary definition also, there is absolutely nothing wrong or degrading in saying,

I slay.... he slays... she slays.... coz I may he slaying in physics or maybe slaying in business or in ICT...

The phrase, "He/She slays" is actually great to use. Your dictionary up there says so too. Check the last explanation of the dictionary meaning you shared

guy er u sure that u read and digested that definition very well! if he slays in physics that means he calm to know physics while he don't even know what is an atom in physics.

Early rise - Early Fall. Soccer Managers, you definitely know this kind of players, it is time to let him go. besides any that much not to make the bench is condescending for a player in his ranks. Ihenacho would have been a better player if started in holland, portugal or belguim. Starting his career at Man City was a missed shot.

i don't believe you. he was a better player at man city before gardiola came. he choose g.jesus a head of iheanacho. at leicester, they have bigger players but the current coach is impatient, give him more time he will perform.

thank u my brother....... Nigeria must be one!!!!!!

A former governor of Ekiti State, Otunba Niyi Adebayo, said on Monday that Governor Ayodele Fayose became governor “by accident.”
Adebayo said this while fielding questions from reporters at the National Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress in Abuja.
He was responding to questions about the level of the APC’s preparedness for the 2018 governorship elections in Ekiti State.
According to him, the APC is prepared to reclaim the state, all that is left is for it to hold its primaries and pick a candidate.
He dismissed claims that Ekiti State was a stronghold of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party.
Adebayo said, “Basically, I believe the present governor got there surely by accident and I believe people are more than ready to change the place.
“Pertinently, I am somebody from Ekiti and the key player in Ekiti, I can tell you categorically that we are more than ready. I am sure that you’ve all heard that we are ready for elections in Ekiti.
“I believe all we have to do is to go through the process of selecting our candidate and once we have our candidate, I don’t see us having any problems in the general election in Ekiti.”
Reacting, however, Fayose’s Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Idowu Adelusi, said the comment showed that Adebayo had yet to recover from his electoral defeat of 2003 and the APC’s loss of 2014.
He said, “How could someone who defeated the incumbent twice be an accidental governor? The comment shows that they (APC) have yet to recover from the shock of the defeat.
“They should wait and see but one thing is obvious: the performance of Governor Fayose in his first term has completely erased the reign of former governor Adebayo from the mind of the people. Governor Fayose has performed better than all of them combined.
“The performance of Governor Fayose has erased the APC from the mind of the people. Come July 2018, the Ekiti people would overwhelmingly vote for the PDP candidate because the party has been more beneficial to the Ekiti people than the APC.”

The move to Man City was a very very wrong step. Stalled his development as a player. He should downgrade to championship, work on his strength as a striker and make the move back up.

I thought he would make it at lester city fc but lester city has hot and matured strikers. verdy, okazaki, mahrez.

LEICESTER are prepared to let flop striker Kelechi Iheanacho leave – even if it means making a loss on the £25million (about N10billion) striker.
Iheanacho
And he was only given a 10-minute runout against League One minnows Fleetwood in a 0-0 draw on Saturday.
A well-placed source said: “The problem is Kelechi is earning around £115,000-a-week (N48million) on a five-year deal and no club will currently want to take him on those wages.
“So Leicester might have to let him go for a lot cheaper than they paid for him if they decide to sell now.”
The 21-year-old forward blasted seven goals in nine starts for Man City last season and Pep Guardiola was reluctant to see the Nigerian leave last summer.
But things have gone badly for Iheanacho, who has made just two Premier League starts, scoring just once in the EFL Cup.
Speaking after the 0-0 draw with Fleetwood – a game which Leicester failed to have a shot on target, Puel said: “I think Kelechi is a young player and he needs to improve aspects of his play. “Also it is difficult because he is a player behind Jamie Vardy and it means he doesn’t get many opportunities.”
Shinji Okazaki is also playing well, so it is difficult for him.
“He works hard on the pitch and in the training sessions and he needs to continue.
“I hope he can have some game time in the future.”
Newcastle, Stoke, West Ham and Swansea were all chasing Iheanacho in the summer, but are unlikely to want to pay his wages.
Man City also have a buyback clause in the deal, which allows them to get first refusal on the player for a fee of £50million.

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has charged the Minister of Sports, Solomon Dalung and other sport administrators in the country to ensure that the nation’s team, the Super Eagles are not mere spectators at the competition.

This is as the Minister of Sports lamented that the greatest challenge before the national athletes in the forthcoming Commonwealth Games was lack of training facilities.
The Minister disclosed this to State House correspondents after briefing the President on the progress recorded by the country in sporting activities in 2017.
He said, “2017 was a very good year in sports for Nigeria, we had the best outing. We had a Democratic elections into the federations and that has helped us tremendously because the federations are up and doing and their hauling in medals in almost all the competitions.
“I briefed him about our plans for 2018 because it is a sports year right from February to August, there is no dull moment. Right from CAF African Nations Championship (CHAN) to African Youth Champion in wrestling taking place in Port Harcourt, to Commonwealth Games scheduled for Gold Cost, Queensland. Australia, between 4th and 15th April 2018, to Basketball, the World Cup in June and the African Championship of the Athletics Federation In Asaba.
“We need the support of the president as usual and funding as it is required to enable our teams succeed.”
On how ready the country was for the competitions, the Minister said, “Well so far so good. For the commonwealth games we have had all the budgetary allocations released and we are on course. The athletes are in camp, they are training. We have athletes in Port Harcourt while others are in Abuja.
“The challenge basically has been lack of training facilities. As we all know training facilities has to do with infrastructural deficit in sports because of long time neglect.
“The visit I made to Lagos the athletes are in high Spirit and are maximizing the available facilities on ground to do their best but we will cap it up possibly with our budget support with foreign camping. After reviewing what is available to us If we can guarantee it then we can export some of our areas of comparative advantage we will send some of our athletes to foreign countries.”
He said that President Buhari encouraged him to in 2018 sustain the tempo of the successes recorded so far in 2017 especially with the World Cup in Russia.
According to the Minister, “He challenged me to ensure that Nigeria does not go to Russia a mere spectator.
“Of course I also informed him that part of the measures we have taken to address some of the challenges is to ensure that by March all the players are paid their match training and camp allowances upfront but for the bonuses is in terms of progression according to performance at the World Cup.”
Fielding question on the reason behind the non maintenance of infrastructure, Dalung said it was lack of patriotism and absence of maintenance culture.
Hear him, “Well, I think the take off point is lack of patriotism and then the absence of maintenance culture. When we are talking patriotism we have to begin from the foundation, that is the award of the contract. For instance, the National Stadium in Abuja, the contractors retained maintenance. And the cost of maintenance in two, three years is close to the entire contract sum.
“The contract is faulty because it maintains maintenance within the contractual agreement to where it did not foresee circumstances or economic realities will not be there to support it.
“Secondly, lack of patriotism in terms of our maintenance culture. For instance the national stadium lagos, does it mean that 2003 the stadium was shut down and no maintenance at all? Because that is the only reason to explain its present deplorable state.
“Thirdly, every year, there is a budget for the maintenance of that particular infrastructure, the question is what has become of this budgetary allocations?
“Even if issues were picked one after the other, we should have had over 16 to 18 year’s impact but certainly not this dilapidated state it is. So certainly, so the absence of patriotism and maintenance culture is behind this infrastructural decay that we have.”
On whether there was going to be sanctions, answered, “Definitely there will be investigations because the best way to stop a problem is to try to discover what happened and then put on records for the benefits of future generation so that it serves as a good guide.
“So investigations is imperative but sanctions will be determined by the legal system and not the bureaucratic system where you appear before a committee and explain. It has to go beyond that because huge budgetary allocations were made and if they are no real impact to justify how they were spend, people should be made to account.”
Commenting on how prepared the country was for the World Cup and whether there were going to be friendlies for the senior team, he said, “For the World Cup, apart from the friendlies we have now, I think we have lined up so many friendlies to play with countries participating in the World Cup, top ranking countries that did not make the World Cup, so as to strengthen our preparation.”
On the release of the budget for the World Cup he said, “The budget has been approved but has not been released. The difference we have in the budgetary allocations this time is that the budget is funded by both the government, private sector and the federation. Because o insisted that the era where government alone will fund such competition a lot is no more acceptable.
“There are grants released by organizers to complement efforts of government, this must be declared and included in the budget. And then the monies realized from sponsorships and marketing will also have to be declared to constituted the budget that will be declared for the World Cup.
“So we have a round figure that has been budgeted which is N3 billion but the Nigeria football federation will raise about N1.5 billion from what we are getting from FIFA and corporate Nigeria, the private sector. Government is expected to turn in N2 or N1.5 billion for the competition.”
Also speaking on when the money expected will be released since the competition will start in June, Dalung said to get government money involved process but the beauty of it was that the ministry had made the request early and has gotten the approval.
“The next thing is the funding and it had to do with the 2018 budget which we are waiting for,” he stated.

This is wrong by all standard

This soldier is still a child.

This is a violation of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the involvement of children in armed conflict (OPAC): Adopted by the UN General Assembly on 25 May 2000 and entered into force on 12 February 2002.

And Nigeria is a signatory to this Geneva Convention abolishing the use of child soldiers.

do u remember the meaning of NDA if u do u won't say what u just said.

Another MMM Scam. Everybody beware.

These TSTV guys are actually reckless. I am really surprised that they brought the minister into this.
I believe that this is another MMM. Buyers beware. This is based on the following:
1. Bein sports acquired the EPL, Champions League and Laliga only for MENA (Middle East and North Africa). They do not have the right for Nigeria. DSTV owns the rights for Nigeria till 2019. You cannot give what you do not have. When a new service is launched, you have to wait for the next bidding round to have a shot at acquiring the rights. You cannot jump in the middle and start showing it. Things are not done that way in the PayTV world.

2.
A lot of channels listed like CNN, National Geographic, Discovery etc were acquired by DSTV on an exclusive basis for DTH in sub-saharan Africa by DSTV. Channels like Star Movies, MBC2, etc are only cleared for middle east and Asia. I really doubt that they have the rights to those channels. They may show it for one or two months before they are asked to take them off air.

3.
I check with a content aggregator on the cost per subscriber for these channels, assuming they can buy the rights, it came out the about 23 USD per month. That is excluding the sports channels. Based on today's naira exchange rate of 365 naira to a dollar, the cost is 8,395 Naira per subscriber. The content owners globally charge per month for their content. They do not charge per week or part of the month. The content owners dictate the terms. Nobody can pay 8395 Naira and charge 3000 Naira. Not possible.

4.
The cost of decoder package is as follows - decoder 25 USD, smartcard 4 USD, dish is 5 USD. Total is 34 USD (12410 naira). If we add shipping and clearing, you can get 15,000 Naira. To charge 5000 Naira for the package, you will need a lot of cheap money from bank to fund the decoder purchase. Buying 15,000 and selling 5000 sounds interesting to me.

5.
To do internet via satellite, you need VSAT equipment which is expensive compared to the dish/lnb you need to receive dstv. Minimum cost of vsat equipment should be not less than 50,000 Naira. If you use the traditional dish equipment, you can only receive. You cannot do internet with it. Unless TSTV will supply you 40,000 Naira vsat equipment for 5000 Naira.

6.
I went to lyngsat and checked the ABS 3A satellite, I did not see any information about any TSTV channels. Lyngsat is the database of all channels currently on satellite.

7.
When you launch a new DTH platform, you start with a test transmission. This allows you to work through some issues that might come up. It also gives people chance to see some of your channels to make sure they are real before committing their money. There is no test transmission from TSTV.

8. EFCC Fraud Charges
EFCC arrested this guy last year for fraud. Not credible.
http://motherhoodinstyle.net/2016/01/23/doctor-who-proposed-marriage-to-wifes-close-friend-4-months-after-her-death-dumped-after-hes-nabbed-by-efcc/


In conclusion, people should ask enough questions before investing their hard earned money. If it is too good to be true, it's probably is. Let this not be another MMM.

I know that only an igbo man will say TSTV is a scam. this is how u people want to bring us out of Nigeria and kill us all.

Stupid act from the pauperized journalist.

The stupendously rich leaders have refused to live by example but you are there forming Mr integrity on empty stomach.

Buhari lied his way to Aso rock, Fashola embezzled millions via website design and borehole drilling, Tinubu acquired the whole of Lagos...the list is endless.

Can someone remind this dolt the penalty for false whistle blowing cos the table will surely be turned against him.

when u don't take advantage of others then u will never be rich think out of the box brother. tinubu took that advantage so leave him alone.

It was never in doubt that okoroawusa was never clean and associated with devilish omen. During the electioneering campaign, it was rumored that okoroawusa is a cultist. It was not a very good ending for some of the people who accused candidate okoroawusa of being a member of devilish cult. This devil incarnate must be chased down. I do not necessarily give a hoot about anything Nigeria but okoroawusa is very fascinating.

do u know that every poor man in Nigeria calls a rich man a ritualist?

Slai1:
I think anyone using the recent pictures of the president to challenge those who spoke out for the right thing to be done when the Precidency was incommunicado with Nigerians for over 2 months about the true state of the President's health are being overtly stupid.

Those that asked for sincerity and truth never said they wished the president dead, they merely did what could be rightly done in any sane society. For speaking out loud, why would the first citizen's true state of health be shrouded in secrecy, controversy and politics.

Again, that the president is strong enough to pose for photographs is not good enough. The task of governing 180million people is much more Herculean than that.

If you ask me, President Buhari will recover better and live longer if he frees himself from the rigors of running Nigeria. Truth be told!

what call u do if he can't continue
