There's quite a few of these ex rugby guys in professional services now. The Director of Finance at a consultancy I did some work for was came from Harlequins.

Andy's captain at Worcester was a guy called Chris Pennell who I believe is now a Quantity Surveyor. His other teammate Tome Howe now runs a coffee shop. These are young young guys in their early to mid 30s.

Money no dey Rugby again.

Yeah average salary na like £70k for league so all of them go need to work except the odd few with good commercial endorsements that play for England

Most of them are from private school background and well educated so dem dey blend easily, even Andy dey use Finance terms like who get MBA. I think rugby is just a choice for them rather than a career, these guys mostly come from money and are just extending their childhood by a decade by playing rugby

I was on this thread when people who were living in Rivers state, commended his good work on the road infrastructure. Even BlueRayDick, who doesn't live in the state, had something nice to say about the roads in Rivers state when he last visited. Also,i was in Abuja sometimes earlier this year and the good roads struck my attention among other notable developments. Wike's hwork speaks for him. If he dares contest for president in this country,he will surely have my vote.

You're right to an extent. I knew all those Worcester boys quite well before the club went under, and the likes of Christian Scott Williamson came from quite possibly the highest achieving black family I've ever met. If youve watched any of the top boxing matches this Riyadh season, there's a tall black man that stands in the ring with bow tie next to Sheikh Turki - na Christian Papa be that.

Then you have the likes of Ollie Lawrence wey em papa dey wear 30k Rolex come games when the boy was still in the reserves.

But most of those boys were not really moneyed like that. Many of them were middle class at best -at least the ones that I know. The key is to bag a rich wife, and na why Cheltenham and Royal Ascot dey always dey PACKED with rugby boys.

Iran is an independent state, they should decide for themselves the kind of weapons they want to keep. If some states can have nukes, there's no reason for other states not to have nukes....
We are trying to reduce the number of countries with nuclear weapon not add to it especially for such an unstable nation with numerous terrorist group. Iran signed the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapon so legally they are not allowed to make sh.it.

Just under 72hours baba have acknowledged Russian military innovation & cutting edge technology.

Dogalmighty17:
Paper tiger. Enough of Russian noise and this idiot Russian paid OP WriterNG.
If dem born Russia well, let them try rubbish. Few days after Biden gave Ukraine the permission to strike inside russia with US supplied weapons and a few hours after russia supposedly changed its nuclear doctrine to ensuring a nuclear response even to conventional weaponry attack inside russia, Ukraine struck several targets with American made weapons. Russia can't do sh(i)t!

We still remember 2017 in Syria where the US wiped out over 400 russian troops in less than 15 minutes and the US lost not a single soldier in that response to Russia attempting to attack a US base. Russia could do nothing. It rather denied its own soldiers and the US continued to mop them up and flatten any structure they were hiding in.

The US brought in f-16s and f-15s plus a couple of f-22s and AC-130s. The sand were the bombs from the american planes exploded on turned to glass and countless Russian soldiers were vaporised.

Russia should getat!
Dogalmighty17:
For once l will put aside my beef with this Russian paid troll, WriterNig. Even though dude is very stupid.

Anyways. Yesterday, humanity witnessed for the first time, real time deployment of an ICBM in combat. The weapon Russia launched had 18 MIRVs(independently targetable re-entry vehicles). The warheads were not armed but if each of them was armed with a nuke, nothing less than 8-12 million people would have died yesterday.

The missile is known to travel at speeds up to or even exceeding mach 15. Each warhead, after separation was suspected to be traveling at 7km/s. There is no known anti-air or missile defense system that can stop a missile traveling at that speed. Indeed there is non that can stop an ICBM in its re-entry phase.

Russia had notified the US, Britain, Germany and France two days before that missile launch which is why these countries closed their embassies in Ukraine yesterday.
More exciting events are still coming up. All the unbelievers go believe

Change is constant, Iran should leave the NPT. Every country currently in possession of nukes should dismantle them let the world be nuke free if they don't want others to have nukes.

Imagine Russia military might then you have China with the industrial capacity to manufacture things at the highest level even greater than the US & EU combined then NAFO is toast.
The West made the biggest mistake by pushing Russia away from Europe. They will surely regret it.

If things go well in decades the nuclear powers may have reduced their arsenals and posture to a point where we are comfortable discussing multilateral disarmament. Because ultimately no one wants to ever use one of these weapons, it's just difficult getting everyone to the negotiating table due to the imbalance in power.

BlueRayDick:
Waste management in Lagos is controlled by LAWMA(Lagos Waste Management Authority) , but the collection and disposal of waste is handled by private contractors under the PSP arrangement( Private Sector Partnership)

It simply means the PSP operators are under the control of LAWMA(the government agency) . So it is a public-private sector partnership thingy.
Yeah, Theflint1 clarified.

I have a laptop with sound issues. I have been able to narrow it down to a faulty audio chip on the motherboard.

Are guys who repair laptops skilled enough to replace the chip or I have to bite the bullet and replace the entire motherboard.

The laptop is just a little over a year and is out of warranty.

If you can narrow it down to the motherboard yourself
Why not complete the lord’s work by getting replacement and fix it yourself

Sure, you can get people that'd work on it, at least I can vouch for engineers in computer Village.

You mean replacing the motherboard? That will cost too much money. Trying to see if the chip alone can be replaced. I don't have the tools nor knowledge to do that on my own.

Never let anyone who isn't an expert in repairs touch your laptop

Nobody dey gum body here. Na u wey no wan acknowledge the new geopolitical reality.
I've stated here before that Moscow is pivoting towards Eurasia/Asia for strategic partnership and alliance.
China is helping Russia to boycott western economic sanctions
But China is also benefiting from transfer of military technology from Russia. US has been crying that Russia is supplying key submarine technology to Beijing.
