otomatic:
When the currently most profitable bank in naija, ZIB, is giving maximum interest of 0.5% for deposits of 200m and above and 0.4% for anything below, i become suspicious of any MFB offering 14%. Are they a wonder bank? Better park your cash with a regulated asset management company o.

Can you name one or two that you consider the best to '' park our cash in '' I know of Stanbic assets managers, is there any other better?

Just go to a garage and board a bus. Transport fare will drop drastically from tomorrow morning due to the lifting of interstate movement ban.

Its one garage in Cele that is charging that but I hope when I get there it would have dropped.

Has GT appeared at the towers? All GT are to resume on the resumption date at the towers which should be on the AP

Have they done medicals? Medicals, security screening etc will be done during orientation if they are going by previous recruitment process

When/How long is their training? Training is usually after orientation, duration depends on qualification, by last recruitment; Engrs/Tech - 8 months in Warri, Admin/Office - few weeks (can't remember now)

When is resumption/ posting to SBU? Posting to respective SBU/HQ is usually after training by last recruitment but previous recruitments has had posting done before training because training was in batches has the training venue couldn't take all at once

Hope that answers ur question

Car Talk / Re: Oil Change: Toyota Corolla 2003, Advice Needed Urgently by sammily(m): 9:44am On Nov 10, 2019
VolvoS60:
There are several brands you can choose from. Just make sure your choice meets your car's oil quality (API SL or the corresponding ILSAC qualification) and viscosity (5W 30) specifications - as already mentioned.

You are also free to choose between synthetic or mineral/conventional oils available. Just make sure you comply with the manufacturer's service interval (time in months or mileage). Note that you may have to reduce the service interval if your vehicle is used under severe operating conditions (which vehicle in Nigeria isn't? undecided)

I use synthetic (the term 'synthetic' can mean a thousand things but that's a topic for another day) oil for my 07 Corolla but that's only because I don't usually cover up to 5,000 km per annum. Since I don't cover the mileage recommended, I usually extend my oil change intervals (OCI) 6 months to between 10 and 11 months. I use synthetic oils as an 'insurance' of sorts. If you cover longer distances in a shorter period of time then conventional oil may be perfect for you, budget wise. Just make sure you change it regularly - and on time.

I have used (in no particular order) Castrol, Mobil, Liqui Moly, Motu etc. motor oils - with mixed results. Don't be misled by marketing hype - if you truly want to know what's going on in your engine and the oil you use - then you'll have to incur the expense of used oil analysis (UOA) with a reputable lab. That's also a topic for another day.


Among the lubricant brands you mentioned, which one do you think is the best?

Radarada, so people gat know say i wan invest in tbs, investment that ought to be private, now you will have to bring someone along each time you want to invest your hard earned money, like a kid that doesn't know his right from left ,this is so annoying. If my wife can't follow me down to the bank, so no tbs investments for me .i know banks are trying so hard to deter customers from investing in tbs,so they can lure you to do their own meagre fixed deposit. The new cbn policies on OMO is giving them new wings, forgetting that tbs investors are damn educated n can read in between the lines. Also, there is no how secondary markets will be scrap, how abt those that want to auction their tbs before maturity, who is going to buy from them? I know all these shakara from banks will pass soon, when they realize that investors stand their ground n even lecture them the difference between OMO n FG tbs.

One option which I employ is to collect a copy of the treasury form and make several copies myself and then give my wife to sign as witness, but leave the date empty. Then whenever I want to invest, take one of the forms along, fill in the necessary details at the bank and submit. Shikenna!!!

Car Talk / Re: My Avalon Having Issues by sammily(m): 10:46am On Sep 29, 2019
UcLloyd:


OK, thanks for the suggestion. But I don't think is from the air filter, cus it doesn't climb hills as well, though I recently changed the fuel pump

We are saying the same thing. Your engine is loosing powe and since you've dealt with fuel, the next is air. If ur air filter is okay, try to clean the mass-air flow sensor. There is a special spray cleaning fliud for that or you can use electronic cleaners also. It doesn't leave any residue after drying

Please help me, my 02 avalon is having issues. My area is usually flooded after any rainfall and most times I swim the water flood with the car to go home.It doesn't fire well and it breaks before it picks up speed. My mechanic is saying I will have to loose the top to work on the valves, but I don't trust his analysis. I need more advice, please

From little experience, if a car is hesitating and loosing power, the engine may not be getting adequate air. You should try to clean or change your air filter and also clean the mass-air flow sensor. This can restore engine power if there are no issues with your engine.

Guys remember the importance of having next of kin on all your investments, do not work all your life and let the banks rip you off. A lot of people have worked all their life only for a sudden incident to cut their life short and the banks always smile and keep their account balances after a few years of inactivity. At the end, it was investing foolishly.

Make someone in your family your next of kin or better still make someone you trust aware of certain investment in certain institution where you have invested.



Many people wil keep their investment a secret even from their spouse, i don't blame such persons because a lot of women will squander your millions once they know you have it. The best option is to use your childrens name as best of kin then tell your spouse you invested at so so place, you dont have to tell her the amount but once she knows your kids are the next of kin, she will be very reluctant to squander the resources.

This message is from the Federal Ministry of TotoNaRubber.



Nice information but note that next-of-kin DO NOT have access to the money in a bank account when the owner is deceased. The family will have to go to Probate court to get letter of Administration or Probate letter (if the deceased died testate). That is the only way.

I'm experiencing the same thing with my 06 corolla too. I read somewhere to check the cable connectors under the front passenger's seat, that the cable can come loose and trigger the airbag light. I've checked mine but the light is still there, you can give it a try, maybe it might work for you.
