@poster,

You can also try this guy called Babalola. He is on 08034767744. He used to share a workshop at Rumuogba Estate close to Cita school but right now he has moved to his own workshop at Danjuma street Trans Amadi. Since I bought my Camry in 2005 and my wife's Pathfinder in 2006, he has been working them and I have been happy with his work. He is quite good and reliable.

Yeah fine boy no pimples but black spots and rashes.

Please dont ever yield to his advances. If you give in, he will surely take you as a cheap girl without value. Also if your girlfriend finds out she will never ever trust you again and may even scandalize your name for stealing her guy from behind.

Please politely tell the guy off and if he insists, threaten that you will report him to his babe ( ur girl friend ). I have spoken.

@poster,

My younger brother in US can bring in a better Pathfinder at just half of your price and one with a lower mileage too. I wonder what you think we are. You can take the car to Abuja legislators.

@Poster,

Where is the car? We need to see the picture to know if it is worth the price you are asking.

Her problem may not just be marrying a Pastor but remember that a Pastor's wife has a great role to play in his life and ministry. May be she feels she does not have the calling or the annointing/grace to shoulder some of those responsibilities like heading and organizing the women in the church etc. In some churches too, there are occassions that the Pastor's wife is expected to mount the pulpit and preach. Do you think she can afford to do this if occasion demands.

I support the lady in question because marrying a Pastor is not just like marrying any other man on the street.

Are you asking? You dont know that there is so much fun and sexual escapades in NYSC camps and most women will not like to miss out such fun. So the best way not to scare young guys is not to wear wedding rings.

Quite shameful indeed.

Is it even easy to steal a car in America and successfully ship it out of the country. Stolen or bought, none is cheap. But why not name your price my guy.

At 80K miles ( over 100K kilos) you say that the car is just like new. Please bring down the price, more people may be interested.

Beyond Discussion:The Accord legend continues
The all-new 2008 Honda Accord moves the world of mainstream transportation towards a refined, dynamic and sophisticated direction with an expanded range of innovative technologies designed for more power, greater efficiency and enhanced safety across the entire lineup of sedans and coupes.

The Accord is simply one of the most popular sedans ever made, and is, along with Civic, Honda’s best-selling vehicle.
Completely redesigned for 2008 with increased dimensions for a more spacious interior, the sedan styling theme expresses a powerful presence with sharp and strong character lines.

To Deepak Daryanani, the Marketing Director of The Honda Place (Honda marketers in Nigeria), there is nothing more that needs to be added to the current Accord, at least, for now. And he is wont to summarise his assessment with: “The former one was End of Discussion, but this one is Beyond Discussion.

“ The all-new 2008 Accord sedan won’t just take you there; it will announce your arrival”, Honda Japan proudly says of the car. The sentiments were echoed by Daryanani, who described the new Accord as the largest among its competitors. Some of the statistics reeled out show that the Accord is, for instance, longer and wider than the Camry, (while the Accord’s length is 4935, the Camry’s is 4815). It is the largest, most luxurious Accord ever.

“With the innovative features in the car, the Accord is moving closer to the BMW … we are no more the mid-size sedan everybody knew; we are now moving towards the premium luxury segment”, Daryanani told a group of journalists to whom he introduced the vehicle at The Honda Place showroom on Victoria Island, Lagos

"The all-new Honda Accord has become more advanced and refined with a new level of engineering sophistication," said John Mendel, executive vice president of American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "As the Honda brand's flagship automobile, the Accord is designed to exceed expectations with premium technology, a more spacious interior and increased power, while retaining the fun-to-drive character and innovative feel that has always distinguished the Accord."

The Accord is available in sedan and coupe body styles (the latter is not available in Nigeria) with 2.0 and 2.4-litre 4-cylinder and 3.5-liter V-6 engine choices. Available transmissions include a 5-speed manual (standard with all 4-cylinder engines), a 5-speed automatic (standard on sedan V-6 models, available with all 4-cylinder engines and V-6-powered Accord Coupes,)

The 3.5-litre i-VTEC V-6 engine version (which may not be available in Nigerian market) produces 268-horsepower - the most ever for any Accord - while introducing a new generation of fuel-saving Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) technology and achieving a Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (PZEV) rating. The VCM system operates in six-cylinder mode for power and 4- and 3-cylinder modes for efficiency, resulting in an EPA city/highway fuel economy rating of 19/29 miles per gallon (Accord Sedan V-6).

Also current for Accord, an Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure enhances frontal collision compatibility with vehicles of different sizes and bumper heights. Additional safety equipment standard to all Accord models includes Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), also known as Electronic Stability Control; side-curtain airbags; dual-chamber front side airbags with passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS), active front seat head restraints, anti-lock brakes and more.

Interior
Premium quality with a simple, modern and spacious design describes the philosophy behind the Accord's interior. The larger Accord Sedan total interior volume of 120.0 cubic feet (+3.3 cubic feet compared to 2007) moves the EPA classification from the midsize sedan class to the large sedan class. The additional space is intended to provide "equal" seating comfort for front and rear passengers.
The Accord interior is designed for a dynamic, intuitive and upscale presence, starting with an easy-to-read information display on every vehicle.

A zone styling approach separates operation-related instruments (top) and information-related instruments (lower). At night, the controls are further separated by colour to distinguish between climate controls (aqua green) and audio controls (white). Classically-styled gauges for the speedometer and tachometer are perfectly round (instead of being truncated at the bottom). Steering wheel audio controls are standard on every Accord. Careful attention was paid to the symmetry of the exterior and interior of the vehicle - including sight lines related to the dashboard height and the visual presence of the hood to the driver.

Redesigned front bucket seats are larger, and feature substantial lateral support to complement the Accord's sporting side. The fold-down lockable rear seatback increases cargo-carrying versatility; the sedan includes a lockable pass-through.

Chassis
A performance-inspired double-wishbone front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension are designed to provide world-class chassis dynamics. The Accord Sedan wheelbase of 110.2 inches is 2.3 inches longer than the 2007 model, while the 62.2-inch front/rear track is 1.1 and 1.0 inches wider, respectively. The Accord Coupe wheelbase of 107.9 inches is 2.8 inches longer than the 2007 model (track is identical to sedan). Ultimately, the suspension design with wider tire sizes, standard ABS and standard Vehicle Stability Assist is intended to enhance driver’s confidence and handling performance.

Safety
Through a comprehensive and evolving approach to vehicle safety, Honda seeks to provide a high level of occupant and pedestrian protection in all of its cars and trucks, regardless of size or price, as well as increased compatibility with other vehicles as part of the Safety for Everyone initiative introduced in 2003. Consistent with the Safety for Everyone initiative, every 2008 Accord integrates sophisticated safety technology that includes the ACE body structure; side curtain airbags; driver's and front passenger's dual-chamber side airbags with a passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS); and dual-stage, dual-threshold driver's and front passenger's airbags (SRS).

Additionally, the Accord has active front seat head restraints that are designed to help reduce the severity of neck injury in the event of a rear collision. Standard active safety features include VSA, a four-wheel disc anti-lock brake system (ABS) with brake assist and electronic brake distribution (EBD), front seatbelts with an automatic tensioning system and load limiters, and a pedestrian safety design in the front of the vehicle. Passenger-side seatbelt reminders and daytime running lights are also standard equipment.

History
The Honda Accord was first Japanese-nameplate car assembled in the United States and calendar year 2007 represents the 25th anniversary of its manufacture there. The first Japanese-built Accord was introduced as a 1976 model, and by 1982 it was being manufactured both in Japan and in a brand-new automobile assembly plant in Marysville, Ohio. The success of the Accord set a path for Honda, and conclusively proved that assembling cars in America was a viable proposition. Seven more Accord generations followed, leading to the eighth-generation 2008 Accord.

@poster,

Apiril fools day is only on 1st April. I am yet to hear of this brand of car

The Minister of Commerce and Industry, Chief Charles Ugwuh, who disclosed this at a meeting with local automotive manufacturers/assemblers and major importers/distributors in Abuja, said the new rule was to avoid the importation of vehicles that would require excessive maintenance.

Ugwuh, who also disclosed that government was rolling out a new policy for the development of panel van and light trucks that Nigeria needed, challenged the local manufacturers of concentrate on making panel vans, light trucks and mid range trucks that could move commerce and industry forward.

He said, “We came to a decision to concentrate on panel van, light trucks and mid range trucks. The national efforts should be geared towards developing functional vehicles that will move the commerce and industry.

“We agreed that we will concentrate on panel van, light truck and mid range trucks, so, based on that we would now have target investment in that direction and mobilise resources to achieve that.”

He assured the auto manufacturers that government would provide some incentives and protective measures, which include “enforcement of the patronage gazette for products of local firms by all tiers of government, in all government contracts, in all multinational grants and in joint partnerships agreements.”

The minister further revealed that government would maintain the requirement that cars imported in to the country should not be older than eight years, stressing that “government’s focus is how to realise the new policy of the development of panel van, light truck and road in truck that Nigeria needs.”

He stated, “Government will introduce a certain degree of consistency in duty charged with used vehicles attracting higher tariff (minimum of 50 per cent than new ones), while manufacturers and assemblers should enjoy low tariff on all inputs.

“This will discourage the continue purchase of used vehicles whilst that of new ones will be encouraged.”

If it is good for a guy to have as many babes as he wishes, I feel it should equally be good for babes to have as many guys as they wish whether sex is involved or not. Just play safe if sex is involved.

@begood1,
God forbid sha but I will see what can be done if I can't get a replacement.

Thanks for the reply but unfortunately the car is in Nigeria now and I was thinking that the manufacturers may just need some informatiion from me about the car and with it get another remote. Another option is to go to any Nissan brand new car dealers in Nigeria and see if they can be off help.

The car is 1998 model.

nossycheek, please let me have your contact email address asap. I have someone in USA who will surely be interested in the 34 year old. She somehow matches what the guy wants in a wife viz, tall and fair. The guy is also Igbo and quite a good guy.

My wife took my children out during Easter and unfortunately misplaced the remote control of her Pathfinder Jeep. All efforts to find it proved abortive.

The car was bought/shipped into the country from USA in August 2006. I plan contacting the manufacturers in USA to see if I can get another remote from them. But before doing that , I need advise from experts in the house.

@poster,
You are as cheap as the girl you are trying to condenm here. The girl saw your unclothedness the way you saw hers, so what are you talking about. When I was a bachelor, I gave a babe lift one evening and it took me up to two hours to convince her to follow me home. We slept same night and she turned out to be a very good girl and we dated for two and half years.
Today she is happily married and I am also happily married too.

A girl can play so hard to get and at the end of it you find out that she is a LovePeddler. Our sisters deserve some respect please.

If the man is good in bed it means they both gained on this side of sex. On the Clubbing, they both gained and on gifts which I assume that the man must have done the buying, the lady gained here.

So all in all they are both winners. All relationships must not last very long or end in marriage.

I'll rather suggest that you write the anonymous note to your friend's wife. Giving her the details of the info you have about her and warning her to desist from such acts or risk being exposed.

You are very far from each other and maybe someone she is seeing regularly is warming her. You know the nearer the warmer

The many effects of joblessness. Please go and find work and do.

That's great and wonderful indeed.

@dayleke

The clearing cost me N180,000 (one hundred and eighty thousand naira only)

My sister just be very careful with this relationship. You must have read what many of them testified here that adultry is a very serious offense in their place but they failed to tell you that it is only for the women. While the men are allowed by their traditions to indulge in as many adultrous relationships as possible any attempt by their wives is always tragic. So will you love to marry a man whose traditiion allows him to misbehave any how he wants while caging the wives?. The result could be disastrous as anything can happen outside. He might meet a woman outside who will do anything to eliminate you or some other disastrous consequences.

Please do not be decieved by this burning initial love. After some years of marriage when the love begins to wane down and shifts to the children, what happens.

ABEG SHINE YOUR EYES BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE

@fadar,

I just cleared a 1994 Nissan quest sent by brother in USA from Tin Can wharf in January. So Nissan quest like any other Vans of any year are not affected by the age limit.

@Jassie,

So you have not seen a naija used car costing almost 2 million naira. To me it does'nt matter where a car was used but how well it was used and maintained. If you are interested in the car, you can ask for price reduction and not that since it is a naija used car it must be sold at a give away price.

@nalijah07,

Who said that it is a standard practise for a married man to take care of his wife and the family of the girlfriend. If a man feels he has more than enough to fend for his family and a girl friend's family that is his own headache. I have seen men who prefer to spend more on a babe outside than their own family. I have also seen girls who use means (juju) to tie men to their whims and caprises.

Most illiterate couples believe that the more children they have the better, afterall children come from God. They may not have the intention to train their children (girls) up to university level but the girls may grow up and then have the intention to further their education as to better their future. A couple could have the number of children they can fend for but economic downturn can disorganize the whole plans.

My brother try RSUST if UNIPORT is very far from you. You will get over dose of what you want. Even College of arts and Science Rumuola and St John's campus of COE are there for cheap, easy and decent babes.

GOOD LUCK MY GUY but remeber to play safe.

One of the main reasons has to do with economic factor. A situation where most families find it very hard to eke out a living not to talk of extras and they have daughters that aspire to further their education. Such daughters will easily fall prey to men who are readily available with cash to help them in school. I have come accross countless undergraduate girls who say that they are training themselves in school. Who actually do the training but married men. You also see young girls come out from school with high hopes of getting jobs to help themself and family but after several years without jobs, they are bound to fall prey to men with cash. Before my very eyes a married man is paying the bills of a man, his wife and entire children because he is going out with one of the daughters, all because the couple is not economically bouyant to fend for their large family. The couples are not happy about this development but can do little about it, since any business they try hardly thrives.

On the side of the married men, I dont know why majority of men think it is their natural right to be "polygamous". They feel they cannot stay with one woman alone. So if men who are well to do can control themselves and help people where absolutely necessary without asking for sexual gratifications, it will go along way to curbing these malaise.
