The Mazda CX 7 and 9 seem affordable and nice bargains. Although I prefer d CX 9, I want to ask if there are particular problems with d ride i.e. Engine, gearbox or braking system. If there are none I feel strongly its a gud buy and I am tempted to switch from d 2007 acura mdx am planning to buy to d CX 9.
THE CX9 IS KIND OF BETTER THE ACURA BUT YOU CAN READ THE REVIEWS ON edmunds.com.

[quote author=LAfricana post=34672782]the shit is just about to get serious cool




look at their guns, like hunters own... who still uses AK47 in 21st century.. More power to thier elbow though



check my signature wink[/quote

THE AK-47 AND IT'S VARIANTS ARE STILL IN USE ALL OVER THE WORLD BECAUSE OF IT'S RUGGEDNESS AND FOR A TROPICAL ENVIRONMENT LIKE NIGERIA WHERE A GRAIN OF SAND OR DROP OF WATER CAN JAM YOUR WEAPON,THE AK47 OR ANY OF IT'S VARIANT IS THE BEST WEAPON YOU CAN USE. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE BETTER WEAPONS LIKE THE IMPROVED M16,MP5,IMI TAVOR (ALREADY ISSUED TO SSS,ARMY AND NAVY SPECIAL FORCES),IMI GALIL,AR15,F2000 (ALREADY ISSUED TO SSS) ETC BUT THE AK47 FOR THE NIGERIAN ARMY IS MASS PRODUCED BY DICON ( Defence Industries Corporation of Nigeria), AN INDIGENOUS COMPANY SINCE SOME WESTERN COUNTRIES HAVE REFUSED TO SUPPLY OUR WEAPONS.


Even after six decades the model and its variants remain the most popular and widely used assault rifles in the world because of their substantial reliability under harsh conditions, low production costs compared to contemporary Western weapons, availability in virtually every geographic region and ease of use. The AK-47 has been manufactured in many countries and has seen service with armed forces as well as irregular forces worldwide, and was the basis for developing many other types of individual and crew-served firearms. As of 2004, out of the estimated 500 million firearms worldwide, approximately 100 million belong to the Kalashnikov family, three-quarters of which are AK-47s.[3]

The AK-47 was designed to be a simple, reliable automatic rifle that could be manufactured quickly and cheaply, using mass production methods that were state of the art in the Soviet Union during the late 1940s.[44] The large gas piston, generous clearances between moving parts, and tapered cartridge case design allow the gun to endure large amounts of foreign matter and fouling without failing to cycle. This reliability comes at the expense of accuracy, as the looser tolerances do not allow for precision and consistency.

Have u ever wondered how you can identify fake custom papers?

All you need to check is what we call "CUSTOMS REFERENCE NUMBER" or c-number on your UNCTAD/ASYCUDA form.

This particular form is actually used to input details of your vehicle and payment of duty into the customs' database.It shows information like the consignee info ( agency handling your job),the means of entry (road for vehicles through land borders),office of entry (idiroko customs command or seme customs command),location of vehicle and place of discharge(idiroko border or seme border),name and address of person/persons responsible for financial settlement (the owner of the vehicle) etc.

When next you're presented with customs document,all you need to do is take note of the customs reference number ( c-number),which is five digits like the sample shown below and take it to any customs command near you,ask for their asycuda unit and present your c-number which is just like your unique pin and for a token sum,you'll be able to verify if the papers are fake or original.

With some cotonou smuggled cars showing up on our streets with forged documents,this is stress-free method of verifying your papers.

If you are planning to buy vehicles from cotonou or planning to ship your vehicles through cotonou,if you've bought your vehicles and you want to pay customs duty at idiroko/seme border,kindly contact us today at jelad ventures.

NOTE :- WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT CUSTOM AUCTIONS,DUTY PAPERS FROM ILORIN OR TINCAN (IF THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT FROM COTONOU),THE BORDERS WE OPERATE FROM ARE IDIROKO AND SEME BORDERS. TINCAN IS AN ENTRY POINT FOR VEHICLES AND GOOD COMING IN FROM THE SEA WHILE SEME AND IDIROKO IS FOR VEHICLES COMING FROM COTONOU.

PROMPT RESPONSE.

This is one of the reasons why we at jelad ventures are the best in what we do.

Right from the time you make inquiries to the time your vehicle is delivered to your doorstep,we make sure that it's fast tracked.

In order to fast track our services,we've reopened our idiroko route and your vehicle leaves the border immediately the papers have been processed unlike seme where you've to wait till six in the evening.

We also make sure that we start processing your duty papers even before the vehicles get to the border,even for vehicles still in transit for importers that are shipping through cotonou port. We make it a point of duty to partner with sister agencies with bigger and efficient work force.

Your vehicle plate numbers and registration papers like third party insurance etc can also be gotten before the vehicle's entry into Nigeria for just thirty-five thousand naira only.

Our fast and efficient services has seriously made jelad ventures a name to be reckoned with at the borders of Nigeria.

NB - issues may come up if there is network disruption at the borders cos printouts cant be obtained from customs if they don't have access to network or if car is delayed in Benin by their authorities,these conditions may delay us but at the end,we assure you that your vehicle will get to the border in time.

THE OFFICERS STILL DISTURB US AND AGENTS CAN TESTIFY TO THIS COS THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS CORRUPT.

THE STRUGGLE STARTS FROM WHEN THE AGENTS WANT TO OBTAIN VALUES FROM VALUATION,LET ME USE A 2003 FORD EXPLORER PICKUP AS A EXAMPLE.

BEFORE WE USED TO OBTAIN $1,400 (N124,110)AS VALUE AND WE USED TO CHARGE OUR CUSTOMERS ACCORDINGLY,ONLY FOR US TO DISCOVER THAT BANK CHARGES HAS BEEN INCREASED TO $1,600 (N141,840).THE MAJOR THING ABOUT THIS VALUE ISSUE IS THAT YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY AS LOW AS N10,000 TO AS HIGH AS N50;000 TO OBTAIN THESE VALUES FROM VALUATION. NOW,IF I HAVE CHARGED MY CUSTOMERS ACCORDING TO $1,400,HOW DO I TELL HIM/HER THAT THE VALUE HAS INCREASED AND MORE CASH IS NEEDED?

YOU'LL STILL HAVE TO STRUGGLE WITH CIU,ASSYCUDA ETC AND ALL THOSE ONES TOO CHARGE YOU AS IF THEY ARE NOT BEEN PAID AT THE END OF THE MONTH. WHEN YOU NOW TRY TO DRIVE THE VEHICLES OUT OF THE BORDER,THERE ARE SO MANY OFFICERS AND MEN WHO WILL STILL DEMAND THAT YOU STILL PAY MONEY AND IF YOU ARGUE THAT YOU HAVE PAID ACCORDING TO THE VALUE THEY'VE GIVEN YOU,THEY EITHER TURN THE CAR BACK TO THEIR OFFICE OR MAKE SURE YOU SETTLE THEM WITH THE CLAIMS THAT THE VALUATION OFFICE WAS WRONG WITH THEIR CALCULATIONS. THE SAME OFFICERS WILL SMILE AND WAVE AT VEHICLES THAT HAVE PAID LOWER THAN THE STIPULATED BANK PAYMENTS JUST BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN SETTLED AND HARASS THOSE WHO HAVE PAID THE RIGHT CHARGES. THESE SAME OFFICERS WILL STILL WAYLAY VEHICLES WITH SHORT PAYMENT OR SMUGGLED ON THE EXPRESS AND THE QUESTIONS YOU WILL KEEP ASKING IS "HOW DID THEY GET INTO NIGERIA?".

RIGHT NOW I CHARGED N300,000 FOR A 2009/010 CAMRY A LADY IS ABOUT TO BRING INTO NIGERIA AND SHE REFUSED TO GIVE THE JOB TO ME JUST BECAUSE ANOTHER AGENT TOLD HER IT WILL COST HER N240,000,I WONDER HOW THE AGENT WILL GO ABOUT IT WHEN THE LEAST BANK CHARGE ON THAT CAR IS AROUND N200,000 - N220,000 AND AT THE END OF IT ALL,THESE AGENT WILL STILL SMUGGLE THE CAR RIGHT UNDER THE NOSES OF NCS PERSONNEL AND THE LADY WILL BELIEVE SHE GOT THE BEST BARGAIN,NOT KNOWING THAT AGENT MUST HAVE SHORTPAID THE GOVERNMENT OR SMUGGLED THE CAR.

THESE ARE DAILY STRUGGLES AGENTS GO THROUGH EVERYDAY JUST TO MAKE ENDS MEET AND AT THE END,CUSTOMERS BELIEVE WE ARE MAKING MONEY OUT THEM,THEY DON'T KNOW THAT NCS PERSONNEL ARE FLEECING IMPORTERS AND AGENTS AND ARE SMILING TO THEIR BANKS 

WE NEED SANITY IN NCS AND A CHANGE IN THE HELMS OF AFFAIRS IS WHAT WE NEED.

MR ABDULLAHI DIKKO INDE  IS CURRENTLY SERVING AS THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF CUSTOMS AND WE THINK IT IS HIGH TIME HE IS SENT PACKING FOR GROSS MISCONDUCT AMONGST OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE NIGERIAN CUSTOMS SERVICES,INHUMANE POLICIES ETC.

MANY OF HIS POLICIES ARE SERIOUSLY HURTING CLEARING AGENTS AND IMPORTERS ALIKE.

WE BELIEVE HE SHOULD BE SENT PACKING FOR SO MANY ISSUES LIKE :-

1. MULTIPLE CHECK-POINTS ALONG BORDER ROUTES - BETWEEN SEME AND AGBARA OR IDIROKO TO SANGO OTTA,WE HAVE ALMOST TEN TO TWELVE CHECK-POINTS ALONG THE ROUTES,ALL OFFICERS AND MEN ARE JUST THERE DOING NOTHING.

2. HIGH HANDEDNESS OF NCS PERSONNEL - IT NOWS SEEMS MOST OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE NCS HAVE NOW MADE IT A NORMAL THING TO STAY ON THE ROADS TO VICTIMISE INNOCENT IMPORTERS AND CLEARING AGENTS. HUNDREDS  OF VEHICLES ARE SMUGGLED INTO THE COUNTRY RIGHT UNDER THE NOSES OF CUSTOM OFFICERS WHO COLLECT BRIBES FROM THEM WHILE INNOCENT AGENTS AND IMPORTERS ARE ALWAYS VICTIMISED ESPECIALLY ALONG THE SEME ROUTE.
ALL THEY DO ALL DAY US SIT DOWN AND DEMAND FOR BRIBES AGENTS AND IMPORTERS,THESE PEOPLE ARE EVEN THREATENED AND THEY CLOSE THEIR EYES TO SMUGGLED VEHICLES.

3.CUSTOM DUTY - UNDER DIKKO'S WATCH,CUSTOM DUTY HAS BEEN INCREASED AND IS ALSO ABOUT TO BE INCREASED AGAIN AND IT WILL ONLY ADD MORE TO THE BURDEN OF IMPORTERS AND AGENTS. WITH ALL THE INCREMENTS,WE ARE YET TO SEE THE CAR MANUFACTURING COMPANIES.

SOME BORDERS IN THE NORTH ESPECIALLY ILORIN EVEN PAY LESS THAN WHAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS STIPULATED YET THESE CARS ARE ALLOWED INTO NIGERIA WHILE THOSE WITH DUTIES FROM SEME,IDIROKO OR TINCAN ARE HOUNDED ON THE ROAD BY NCS PERSONNEL.


4.CORRUPTION - UNDER HIS WATCH,THE NCS HAS GROWN SO CORRUPT THAT ALL THE OFFICERS AND MEN THINK ABOUT IS HOW TO BECOME MILLIONAIRES OVERNIGHT. THE COST OF DUTY PROCESSING KEEPS RISING JUST BECAUSE EVERY OFFICER WANTS TO CHARGE MONEY FOR EVERY BIT OF PAPER THAT COMES TO HIS/HER DESK AND THESE CHARGES DOESN'T HELP AGENTS AND DEALERS ALIKE.

THESE AND MANY MORE ISSUES ARE FACTORS MILITATING AGAINST MR ABDULLAHI DIKKO INDE  AND SINCERELY I WANT PMB TO SACK HIM SO THAT SANITY CAN RETURN BACK TO OUR PORTS AND BORDERS.


PLEASE SUPPORT THE HASHTAG , #abdullahidikkoindemustgo. WE MUST PUSH THE GOVERNMENT'S HAND IF THEY REFUSE TO DO IT,WE ARE TIRED OF HIS POLICIES AND REIGN IN NCS.

Politics › Port Harcourt Refinery Embarks On Rehabilitation Programme by saintjoel(op): 10:28pm On Jun 04, 2015
PORT HARCOURT Refining Company (PHRC) Limited, has unveiled plans to embark on rehabilitation project to meet local needs of petroleum product in the country.

The Managing Director of the company, Dr. Bafred Audu Enjugu, said last week in Port Harcourt, that the management of the company, with support of the parent Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), have embarked on rehabilitation of Area I which hosts the crude distillation unit (CDU) to pave way for Psimultaneous operations and upgrade of other units ahead of July when crude supply to the plant is expected to be restored.

According to Enjugu, Area I of the refining complex is prioritised because of process sequence while the optimization units such as the Catalytic Reformation Unit (CRU) and the Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCCU) are to be rehabilitated subsequently. The later units, he said, further process initial output of the CDU to produce premium products used for blending primary products of CDU to achieve products of high octane rating.

Enjugu explained that the contract could not progress when Technimont submitted outrageous charges and failed to provide performance guarantee for the job.

Pointing at the strategic economic and security importance of the refineries, Enjugu said that NNPC cannot give up on the refineries, and thus decided to mobilize its retired and active workforce as well as credible indigenous contractors with reputation of performance to take the challenge.

“The people are eager to prove that the plant can be recovered to full capacity, and I can tell you nobody knows the plant half as much as those who have spent their lifetime running it and maintaining it,” he pointed out.


On the standard of work, Enjugu said that all the technicians deployed in the work are skill certified, adding that their knowledge, experience, discipline and perseverance would be brought to bear on the job.

“On standards, I can tell you that it is more difficult not to comply than to comply,” he stressed, adding that the plants have sufficient intelligent sensors that call attention to errors, omissions and faults.

No lost time on injury is expected during the rehabilitation project, he explained, pointing out that safety experts from sister refineries of NNPC at Warri and Kaduna have been mobilised to Port Harcourt to assist during the entire period of the work.

On the values to be created by the ongoing rehabilitation of the plants, Enjugu pointed out that the strategy has afforded Nigerians the first full opportunity to handle a significant scope of refinery rehabilitation in the country, explaining that success of indigenous technicians at the job would resonate across Africa.

The Executive Director in charge of Operations at the Company, Engr. V. A. Ugochukwu, explained that the refinery had concentrated on production of low value products in the past because units that optimize full value production were not available due to long period without required Turn-Around Maintenance.

He said the company’s operations and maintenance team has robust experience to bring the plants to full operations, to add maximum value to crude oil, and pump out premium products to the market.

Executive Director in charge of Services at the complex, Ralph Ugwu, stated that the rehabilitation project is receiving full host community support and has seen unprecedented staff enthusiasm in tackling such an intricate and complicated challenge.

According to him, the rehabilitation work is to be carried out by indigenous workforce without compromising standards, adding that the project model would give full expression to the targets and objectives of the highly applauded Nigerian Content policy which, he explained, has been very successful in the upstream sector of the petroleum industry.

ANOTHER BONUS FOR PMB'S GOVERNMENT.
