CharlesPhc:
Very simple, the constitution says ‘where there is no substantive Chief Judge, the most Senior Judge of the High Court AUTOMATICALLY assumes office as the Acting Chief Judge. At this point its not in the power of the governor to ‘appoint’. It’s within the jurisdiction of the NJC to say who is the Most Senior Judge of the State High Court of Rivers State period…!!! The power of appointment of the substantive CJ lies only in the hand of the Governor based on recommendation from the NJC. At this stage what we should be talking about is who is the most senior judge of the Rivers State High Court. That Judge can perform the duties as the Acting CJ without even the ceremonial oath of office by the governor. The issue in my mind is that since the matter is in court and the court has adjoined to June, NJC's acting on the matter by appointing Daisy Okocha as the Acting Chief Judge in spite of the subsisting Court case may amount to contempt of Court

This discuss will be richer if you quote the constitution correctly. Section 271 subsection 4 states, 'If the office of Chief Judge of a State is vacant or if the person holding the office is for any person unable to perform the functions of the office, then until a person has been appointed to and has assumed the functions of that office, or until the person holding the office has resumed those functions, the Governor of the State shall appoint the most senior Judge of the High Court to perform those functions'.

Note that the constitution says, 'the Governor of the State shall appoint the most senior Judge of the High Court to perform those functions'; so your assertion that the Governor does not need to appoint an acting chief judge is wrong!

Will get back with a preliminary cost; also, if you post your email, I'd send you what I call a layman's bill of engineering measurement & evaluation (BoQ).

Like the ad, no matter what they are selling. Great touch to pick a Nigerian and Moses for that matter, me likey!

The site too at least 3 times longer to load. Have been trying to sign on to the Internet portal to check my balances for the last 8 minutes; no show! Closing the browser (Chrome) to start again.

Have finally been able to check my account. This time the online portal opened in about 1.5 minutes. Still too slow; don't care for all the graphics which just eats your data plan!

Aside from the uncouth manner the Governor spoke to the woman, really what does the law say about street trading? Are the wares seized and the offender persecuted or are the wares just seized or is the offender just persecuted? The Governor cited obstruction of traffic flow that could lead to death as justification for this show of poor leadership; what about Governors whose motorcade drive recklessly and have killed scores of people (ala Dr Iyayi of recent memory)?

I'm exceedingly angry right now!

Mariarocks:
I think she's leaving Ghana on friday. Me, I could hardly care less at this point about Melvin and Maria working out. That discussion has exhausted me but I still hope they do. I just personally love the Maria girl and her, Bev and Feza (yes Feza ) are my favorite chase girls. I just love those girls. Especially Bev and Maria.

I fear you O! I likki Maria a lot; Bev gragra too much but nice soul but Feza; ah, I fear you!

Mariarocks:
Taaaaa this thing doesn't count. Let me tell you, a few hours ago Elikem was leading with about 2% ahead of Melvin and I was pissed so I personally kept clicking and clicking Melvin till he was 2% ahead of Elikem. And then I did the same for Beverly to increase her votes amongst the girls. LOL it was just fun to do. . But seriously those polls don't mean anything. Shebi Angelo finally overtook Dillish and he still left

I know it does not work but only ardent followers of BBA know that. Passersby don't know that and may be swayed but it; so no dulling for any polls anywhere; Melvin must win dem all! Na 'sherubawon' tinz na!

Mariarocks: I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE MARIA ON SUNDAY .

She don comot for Ghana? I like the chick but I doubt if she and Melvin go work. One never knows sha especially with the the Meryl turned out to be a keeper, maybe na Namibian tinz1

Looks like the voting is done daily; does anyone know how is ended yesterday?

Just listened to Angelo's 'Hang Out' session. The guy is a really cool dude and fun too. As for his relationship with Beverly, he wants to continue it but leaves it to Beverly to decide. He also said Candice agreed with him before the show to see how things pan out while he is in the BBA house. Looks like Candice has lost her man (don't like it one bit) and hope Beverly does makes the relationship work!

Vikin:

Mainly for diplomats and some professional bodies...

Ordinary citizens are under standard passport...

Confirm at immigration website

So all government workers have a passport called 'official' passport?

databoy247: Nigeria and South Africa on Tuesday signed an agreement aimed at ending visa acquisition by holders of official and diplomatic passports.
Ministers from both countries have been charged to ensure the effective implementation of the newly signed instruments and the conclusion of outstanding agreements.
Both Presidents, Jacob Zuma and Goodluck Jonathan met in Cape Town, South Africa where various issues were discussed on how to improve on relationship between both countries as they agreed on so many issues aimed at boosting development in the continent.

I know what a diplomatic passport is, but what is an official passport? These people should just use words that make things plain instead of using words that can be exploited by funny officials? Are there unofficial passports?

Yes, I mean mytv channels. I've a 4940 which does not show any mytv channels either. Pardon me, I don't know what you mean when you say 'paired 4840'!

olenyi:

Do u mean mytv channels? They said dey are going off all receiver except paired 4940 and its brother.

Regards.

My Strong decoders (4669X and 4940 - home and office) stopped showing Intelsat 7/10 channels. The channels are still listed; have re-scanned and still nothing. Appreciate any help I can get.

Why did he contest if he didn't have a clue how to solve Nigeria's issues? Stopped reading anything he says a long time ago!

ziccoit: how does this reduce the price of gari. O ti tan.

Why should gari price reduce? Shouldn't farmer be millionaires, abi na only you sabi make money?

I thought it was illegal to denominate anything in Nigeria in dollars? Sanusi where you dey? Hope say you dey hear wetin dem dey talk about pipo wen don go bananas?

Seriously, the rich in Nigeria have no imagination whatsoever, they should see what Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and co are doing with their wealth. They are like Richie Rich, the cartoon character, poor little rich folks!

My CRTV does not show any pictures nor does it have sound. It comes up now when you scan 12551 V 19531 (12522 that's on Lyngsat is not working) but doesn't show anything. Anyone with a solution?

Took my 4669X to a dealer to 'wake up', cause I didn't have an R232 cable plus my desktop's monitor was bad. Have bought the cable now and once I get the monitor, all this nonsense of upgrade wahala should be over. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Tried to upgrade my brand new 69X from 1.07 to 1.09AAC cause many of the Infinity Channels had no audio. I downloaded from the site given here to a pen drive and uploaded to the 69X. I didn't want to go straight to 1.20 which I also downloaded. Everything went well (no PHCN wahala) but the front panel just went blank after completing the upload. I have switched it off severally but it only shows ----- and then blanks out. I bought it from a MyTv dealer and think it is original; have I fried it? How do I get it to reboot and work properly? I don't have the R232 cable and only use flash updates (done it before for my 53X). Please HELP!

Am in PH and would be glad if Lov4Sat can help; box to box or using R232.

I call it Manchester City 0 - Manchester United 2

Beautiful pictures. Good layout and it should be extended all over the Abuja Municipal. All government did was build roads and provide the necessary environment. The houses are owned by people especially southerners. Nigerians are not yet developed to self-regulate, so the government has to strong-arm us.

As for the wealth of the ND being used for Abuja, that's what you get for a rubbish federalism. As folks have said, if the governors since 1999 have used 70% of the resources they got for the development of their states, we'd not look like frontier towns in the wild wild west of America of yore!

Abeg make una leave this divisive north-south dichotomy and everyone face the state government where dem live to make sure say development dey. I tire for all this state indigene thing sef! If I pay my taxes in a state (where my papa no be from) and don live there for 5-10 years, who say I no be indigene? Even sef, how many indigenes dey development dem state (even sef, no be Onitsha person dey do all the business ofr Onitsha)! If America do like we dey do for this indigene thing, Jeb Bush & George Bush Jr no for bi governors of 2 different states (Florida & Texas)!

Abeg I don install mixit 3 times using kenneth, moz and 9ja but couldn't vote even after using life mobile lines. Wetin I dey do wrong?

I agree with you montelik, they have a right to speak their minds but when they can clearly see that its making their friend uncomfortable, they ought to have dropped it.
Back to voting jare.

Uti should have stopped already when Mwisho told him to. uti gets irritating when Sheila is around, we all knew this and were ready for it but abeg he shouldn't make our work difficult jo!

I feel like stangling Munya sometimes, that boy is irritation, period! He told Mwisho don't argue with fools yesterday night after the argument that Mwisho didn't congratulate Tatiana on winning the box task. Eish, if I see that boy in real life, I'd give him a thorough licking. Damn!

Am not watching but why is Biggie showing the barn at this time? What is Biggie up to? I think Uti is smart enough to manage his distress until the game is over. Abi dis na Biggie ploy to make Uti lose the game?
