CelebritiesRe: OAP Daddy Freeze Shares Video Of Tupac Talking About Religion - Very Inspiring by pressplay411(m): 7:18am On Jan 29, 2017
They just couldn't let Tupac continue, they had to take him out.

He was not just liberating minds, he was unravelling the control system. And they couldn't have that.
PoliticsRe: Energy Theft, Major Cause Of Crazy Bills – IKEDC by pressplay411(m): 7:08am On Jan 29, 2017
When will people stop lying?
If you're under IKEDC welcome back to the Dark age.
The truth they'll never tell us (gotten from an internal source) is that IKEDC is in DEBT! A huge one.
They owe the generating coy hundreds of billions and can't afford to pay up. In fact they are said to even be rejecting Power supply from the said coy to avoid accruing more debt.

Apparently once again funds have been diverted into special accounts.
I've always said the Power problem of this country is not technical but Human.
Nigerians are just Fantastically Corrupt! We just hate it when foreigners tell us the truth.

CelebritiesRe: 'Why We Arrested Harrysong' - Five Star Music Releases Official Statement by pressplay411(m): 10:17am On Jan 28, 2017
Artists forget that music business is a business.
I believe Harry song was too excited by whatever robust deal they offered him from the get-go, forgetting that if a record label signs you with 5M, it's because they expect a ROI of 50M at least.

On the flip side, 5-Star label probably over used Harry Song during the course of his stay with them without enough compensation. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure he wrote virtually all the songs that came out of the label especially most of KCees's songs.
Harry song was probably also constrained and frustrated by not having the freedom to record and drop albums. Hence his inability to fulfill his 3-album obligation.

My advice, both parties need to hold an arbitration and resolve this amicably lest Harry Song would ruin his career, and 5-star would find themselves too busy Recording losses instead of hits.

EducationRe: Zodiac Is A Scam......see Reasons by pressplay411(m): 12:40pm On Jan 27, 2017
You made some valid points but I think zodiac readings are right to an extent but not accurate.
And it depends on the site.
That said I don't believe anyone should let daily horoscopes guide their way of living.

I have tested it occasionally with friends and family and I kid you not there's a direct relationship between a person's birth day and their personality traits.

No doubt it's also a business so there's an influx of quack sites out there that just make up stuff and people are gullible enough to believe.
I once tried a Numerology reading that I was even falling for till I got another message that I had to make some payments to get in depth readings. Good thing I asked a friend to also try it only to find out he was sent the same readings with a little tweaking here and there.

Point is, you just have to know how to filter out BS from the internet.

BusinessRe: Five Banks Dominate Cbn’s $1.1b Forex Disbursements by pressplay411(m): 10:14am On Jan 27, 2017

Point taken but we need to look at this in context.

What else do you want Emefiele to do? To sell dollar that is not available or do you think he has one dollar printing machine in his house where he can just go and print dollar?

The dollars we have now is even from the inflows that come in from export proceeds and oil revenue.
I'm only engaging this argument cos of the intelligence you spew. But I can't be convinced Emefiele is not a crucial part of this economic and financial catastrophe.
I was most surprised even Vanguard awarded him Personality of the year even with the state of the country. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/personality-year-cbns-godwin-emefiele-battling-forex-headwinds/

No one is saying he isn't working, we're saying his job is to manage the country's finance by regulating the financial system through sustainable monetary and fiscal policies.
It should interest you that the CBN Gov had decided nothing needs to change cos we're still operating and maintaining the same policies that failed the country last year.

Tell me, is this not a clear act of incompetence? Why does he always disagree with his Minister of Finance?

We know the country is broke because of the militancy in the ND affecting our quantity of oil sales and that's why we're experience the effect of these backlogs. Is it when the country is rich that we know a good manager or when the chips are down?

His job is to fix the economy, if he can't, he needs to step aside for someone who can. The earlier govt realises this, the better.
PoliticsRe: Buhari Cannot Be Forced To Address Nigerians On Rumors Of His Death- Presidency by pressplay411(m): 9:02am On Jan 27, 2017
We fail to realise that some people have a full time job to torment Buhari and frustrate his adminstration.

What's the big deal in a 2 weeks' leave?
What's the point of the leave if he has to address any issue while he should be officially off duty?

But just to douse this embers, I think our sad media won't rest until Buhari releases an Instagram video posing next to the Queen holding a calendar displaying today's date.

Even then they won't be convinced so really why should he bother? He should just enjoy his leave.

Bros Emefiele has nothing to do with zenith having the highest volume.

Banks were asked to send in bids for this since like two weeks ago and also asked to send in to clear back log of transactions for target sectors. A lot of of these banks didn't comply and we're sending in for back log of invisible transactions (school fees etc) and those bids were dropped. The results of the bids are on the CBN website for all to see and also published in the national dailies

We really need to stop all this sentimental posts

God bless Nigeria.
Well said but you know I'm only stating the obvious, sentiments aside.
Emefiele should be fired for abuse of that office as CBN governor.
If this country was your private entity, apparently even you would have fired him already because the country losing millions of dollars daily and going into the drains and this man is either clueless about fixing it or as I believe he's a major part of sabotaging the economy just to frustrate this administration. I mean GEJ handpicked him to that office for chrissakes.

quote author=pressplay411 post=53135943]Forex experts kindly translate to English.

I'm not surprised Zenith has the highest volume. Wasn't Emefiele the former GMD of Zenith bank?

Saying the disparity between official rate and black market rate is the cause of increasing cost of goods, doesn't that also mean banks still sell bulk of the currencies to BDC against instruction of CBN?
I guess Op edited. Last I checked FBN wasn't even on the list which I found surprising.
PhonesRe: NCC To Fine Network Providers N5m For Unsolicited Text Messages by pressplay411(m): 6:50am On Jan 27, 2017
marryjesus:
Henceforth, any network provider that sends unsolicited text messages (SMS) to subscribers would pay a fine of N5million. The Chairman of the Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC), Prof. Umar Danbatta disclosed this yesterday at the 46th convocation of the University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN).
He spoke on: “The Role of ICT in Tertiary Education in Nigeria-NCC interventions.” Danbatta explained that the commission has contributed over 1.4 trillion naira to the country’s economy since its inception.
The chairman urged policy makers to adopt information communication technology (ICT) to grow the economy. He canvassed the use of ICT in addressing the challenges in agriculture, health, energy and education sectors.“It is in the interest of the country to harness the potentials in the information-driven age to facilitate the socio-economic development.
“The commission will continue to facilitate the improvement of the content delivery and capacity development of tertiary institutions,” he said.
He emphasized that NCC’s commitment to improving learning in tertiary institutions to reduce time wastage in accessing teaching and learning materials.
According to him: “Functional SAT 3, Main-One, Glo 1 and WACS and In-Country Fibre Optic Cables Distribution and Last Mile, were other viable investment opportunities for business people.”

CelebritiesRe: Man Calls M.I A 'Senseless Snake' For Defending Islam by pressplay411(m): 8:48pm On Jan 25, 2017
DeLioncourt:
The point is that, the people doing these things are terrorists and therefore should not be used to represent a religion. That was simply what uncle M.I meant.
If someone beheads another and shouts Jesus is Lord just before doing so, it does not mean that christians are killers.
If someone misinterprets Matthew 11:12 and uses it as a reason to carry out violent acts, it doesn't mean that the bible told him to be violent.

The fact that some extremists carry out violent acts in the name of a religion, doesn't mean that said religion supports such acts.

Several muslim faithfuls and muslim clerics have come out openly to denounce and condemn the acts carried out by these terrorists...yet you ignore those ones and castigate the whole religion.
That's just bigotry.
But a Christian would never do that. Period.
Every Islamic terrorist believes his fight for a divine course as inspired by certain books in the Quran and preached by his imam.
So let's call a spade a spade. Islam overall might be a religion of peace but it also condones violence/war/haram in the name of Allah.
