Quincykay:
Makes a lot of sense and it's the future. It's unavoidable.

It's the less maintenance for me that's the biggest selling point. And next, Naira for Naira, it's a quarter of the price of the "fuel".

Don't forget BYD. They're in Abuja now.

PoliticsRe: We Are Building Roads To Open Up The FCT – Wike by Quincykay: 6:21am On Dec 06, 2024
veraponpo:
Nigeria is gradually building a country we can all be proud of.

True federalism through fiscal federalism is on-going.

Local government financial independence is achieved already.

Legislative and judiciary financial independence is achieved already.

Our currency trades in its real values now, no more pegging.

Students loan is now running in Nigeria, just as they do in the advanced nations like the UK and USA.

Our FCT is now having an international status and aesthetics.

Terrorists are now running from our army.

Power can now be generated by each state.

Investors are coming back gradually.

If you like, don't talk to your governors, Nigeria of years before has changed now, we now practice a federal system of government where development is to handled by each sub-national

God bless Nigeria

CareerRe: Workers Call Customs Officer 'Ole' At Tincan Island On Her Retirement Day by Quincykay: 12:07am On Oct 27, 2024
She is actually a terrible woman. I was relocating to the country. Shipped my thinks and two SUVs. They said I'm importing furniture. I said, I'm relocating to Nigeria!!! This is stuff from my house. 3 weeks later in a hotel in Lagos trying to clear my things, she abused my agent everyday. While I was there, I saw her "obtain" from people's containers everyday. Wine, clothes, daipers, even baby dolls!!! I asked those around, what is she doing with all these things. They said she had a shop in town. She left everyday with armed army guards. Everyone begging begging and begging for her attention to solve one issue or another. Meanwhile, your goods are entering demurrage oh! On the final day, was a Friday, they said come back Monday. I wan die! Monday ke!? My oyinbo partner then went in and bribed some people and lastly her. She said we can't just go like that oh. Gave us her small touch light phone and asked to load it with credit. Na so we begin enter codes. One by one from the recharge card. Don't remember the amount now but over N20,000. Some in N200 paper. Online wasn't really a thing then.

Nigerian officials can be bad, but trust me, this was another level of EVIL!!!



Zonefree:
I bet she's a good woman.

In Nigeria, if you restrict workers from stealing, you're evil.


May God bless her more.

Finally. A good response. The fact that it took this long down the thread to see this IS the problem. Solve your own problem. Stop blaming others.

PoliticsRe: El-Rufai: How Old Men Like Me Can Be Chased Out Of Politics by Quincykay: 7:48am On Feb 20, 2021
Why are so many people abusing him? Even if you don't like him did he lie this time? Abusing on Nairaland will not change Nigeria. Get involved. Thats all. Even touts that smash ballot boxes are involved. If all we're willing to do is press our phones then we should not complain. I for one I'm not getting involved. So I won't complain when Naira hits N1000 to $1 lol grin
PoliticsRe: Dangote Refinery Can Bail Nigeria Out Of Economic Recession – IMF by Quincykay: 6:28am On Feb 11, 2021
I honestly can't wait till that thing is up and running. And for those that are doubting, he's running the cement factory just fine no?
And nobody gave him concession. He got off his butt and hustled to get it. Maybe not all of us could have had the resources to hustle like him, but there are other rich and influential people in Nigeria that have done nothing. Kudos to him!

Abeg, leave the man to complete the capital projects he's working on in Nigeria. He's not doing anything wrong. Especially not anything worse than the other non-performing "big men" in Nigeria.
PhonesRe: How Did I Get The NIN Without Registration? by Quincykay: 8:48am On Dec 21, 2020
I was pleasantly surprised when I saw a NIN on my GTB app. So the comments here verify that if your BVN starts with 221 you do get one. My question now is, my NIN is a 10 digit number. The code verification is asking for an 11 digit number.
PhonesRe: How Did I Get The NIN Without Registration? by Quincykay: 8:44am On Dec 21, 2020
That means you're using the older app the newer one gt world, shows it when you press menu.

Thanks for this info. Just saw mine on my GTB. I couldn't see it on the app, but saw it when I logged in via browser.

Elom musk is not having a good year,first the low sale of his electric cars and now this.
You couldn't be more wrong. Elon is probably one of the few having a FANTASTIC year!

1. Tesla shares have reported for the 5th year straight growth. Over 400%
2. Sent Six people to the ISS (2 missions) for the fist time from US soil since NASA 9 years ago.
3. His world wide starlink internet that will eventually give high speed internet even to my village started about 2 months ago.
4. His Tesla model 3 is finally meeting demand manufatcuring.
5. He just surpassed Bill Gates to become the 2nd richest man on earth at $147 Billion
... and many more!

If that's a bad year, where do I sign up!!huh

CrimeRe: Umahi: Facilities Destroyed During Riots Won't Be Rebuilt By My Administration by Quincykay: 8:43am On Oct 26, 2020
Fantastic point!!!!

People blame govt and politicians as if they're foreign invaders. They are young Nigerians that grew old. Be good to yourself and neighbor NOW so you'll be a good leader later.

allanphash7:
.....interesting perspective

"*Do we need youths to have a better country?*

Sadly, our current leaders started leading as youths.

Check their respective ages and subtract the last 20 years of democracy from it and let's see what we have.

Let's take Rotimi Amaechi for instance.

He is 55 now.

He's 6 years into Minister. That means he became Minister at 49.

He was Governor for 8 years. That means he became Governor at 41. Prior that, he was Speaker for 8 years, that means he was Speaker at 33. Freaking 33!

How youth can youth be!

Do the maths for all of them and you will see that youth has brought us nothing.

Fashola is 57.

He was in Tinubu's Cabinet.

Tinubu became Governor 21 years ago.

Remove 21 from 57, that's 36.

How youth can youth be?

Wike is 53.

He has been in power for the last 15/20 years.
That's 33-35.

How youth can youth be?

Dimeji Bankole was a freaking 37 as Speaker in the National Assembly.

Ahmed Lawan is 61.

He is been in the assembly since 1999. That was 21 years ago at the age of 40.

Even if President Buhari is 80yrs now, he was head of state in 1983, 37yrs ago, remove that from 80, that means he became the Head of State at the age of 43yrs and has bn instrumental corridor of power ever since.

See what we have.

What did we gain?

We don't need the youths.
We need a change of mindset and attitude, we need a change in the way parents nurture and train their children.

Both young and old.

Else, it's the same story.

Youths have always been in power!
They became old in power!

Yet we are here!"

RomanceRe: Do I Tell My American Patient He's Being Scammed By A Nigerian Romance Scammer? by Quincykay: 10:57pm On Aug 13, 2020
ALEX182:
I said, matured responses. This happened this afternoon at work bruh. It is really troubling me and that's why I asked for advice. I don't have time for fake tales. Ok.
Don't mind them. Same thing happened to me in Canada. Lady came to my computer store to ask me to help get print out her emails. No how you'll gander some text from it. She was being scammed. Actually. Had already been scammed. $65,000. She was at this time freaking out a bit cos of lack of communication from the Nija scammers. Instead of them to just ignore her. They apologized and asked for another $7,000 to pay some taxes on the money she was expecting as profit so they could send it. I told her, "please, I couldn't help but notice..." She then motioned me to stop! That she know what she was doing. So I kept my mouth shut. Fast forward a few days, her attire had changed. She'll come into the internet Cafe part of my store looking toosh. And sending more money. When yawa blew. She had apparently borrowed money from relatives etc and now totally backrupt and depressed. I felt bad. But she told me straight up to mind my business... So..

Fix power, demand and supply will regulate itself. You don't need to ban cement importation for instance...
PoliticsRe: Buhari Reveals What Will Determine Reopening Of Land Borders by Quincykay: 7:26am On Feb 22, 2020
Reading comments on Nairaland is just funny. It's too hard to rule Nigerians. They'll complain whatever you do. Those people doing the smuggling are Nigerians. Don't bother bringing tribes into it! He's not here forever. Next election, run so that you can fix all Nigeria's problems.

The issue is not buhari alone. It's vastly - mainly Nigerians! We too dey break laws! If we all choose to strive to practice being good citizens, the impact on the country will be more that any politician's.

PoliticsRe: Sorry To Say, The Nigerian Government Is Better Than The Nigerian People by Quincykay: 5:58am On Jan 21, 2020
This is gospel truth. I wish there was a way for everyone to have a sincere reflection on the points raised. People yell, Nigeria is bad... a hellhole! But is a country not it's people? Nigeria is filled with Nigerians. So if Nigeria is bad, then... (do the math). EVERYONE IN GOVT IS A NIGERIAN! Again... do the math.

I'm in construction. Whenever we go to a site, the gateman/guard that is smiling and shaking in front of his oga (our client) is the same one that will frustrate everything we try to do on site when the oga is gone. Because he has a little power. Every single time, every single site that has one, without fail! But begin to give him N200, buy him a drink and he's on your side! Is that not receiving bribery at your place of work!?

Now imagine that gateman, that curses the thieves in government everyday for his woes, becomes a community leader, a LG chairman, a commissioner, a house of rep member, senator, governor or president. His subjects are doomed!
PoliticsRe: Buhari Unveils $732 Million Broadband Project To Boost Economy - Bloomberg by Quincykay: 7:34pm On Jan 11, 2020
They can do more than one project at a time. Sign more than one PPP at a time. Obviously some companies see the potential in Nigerian broadband to invest in it. That doesn't stop investment in roads, agric, electricity etc. If we do one at a time, we'll never grow!

joeluv:
They should finance another ppp project..... This is not our problem now. Our roads are so terrible. Better roads at this point would affect the life of common man better than this
PoliticsRe: Buhari Unveils $732 Million Broadband Project To Boost Economy - Bloomberg by Quincykay: 2:30pm On Jan 11, 2020
This is an excellent development. Those who know, know. This is the information age. And it's a PPP arrangement. Investors prefer when govt has a stake in what they're doing just for some show off faith. Plus it's usually a requirement for financing. There is a lot more to internet penetration to a society than complaining on Nairaland!
