orisebawo:
Are you for real, I am a yoruba man and I respect Awolowo very well but your assertion that  he had no equal is nothing but a fallacy, the Awolowo I know was a tribal leader i.e a local champion and he was never denied the presidency, he just didnt have the skills needed, he failed to evolve from a yoruba man to a Nigerian, he promoted tribalism by implying that the yoruba tribe was the best . When I read about Yoruba  leaders still going to Ikenne to meet with Awolowo's wife, it further buttresses my point that the Awolowo's are just trying to remain in the limelight and not really after any development and apparently not making any impact.

SPERMFLAKES must occupy where your brain-cells should be.
How did he fail to evolve from a Yoruba man to a Nigerian when his task was to govern the Western Region?
So Awolowo should leave his duties and help the East and North develop their regions?
Jesus Christ. . . . .How dumb can some people reason?

The Awolowo's should leave the younger generation to lead, afterall how old was Awolowo when he was the premier of the western region.
I respect him for what he did in western nigeria but that is where it ends, he was not a true Nigerian like Abiola, who was recognised all over Nigeria and is the only man that was denied the presidency.
I am not slighting him I am only saying the truth.

This further proves your first degree illiteracy.
Abiola never held a political post. . . . . .He was a philanthropist. . . .
Comparing Awolowo to Abiola tells me your IQ is lower than your shoe-size.

Just As Obafemi Awolowo is the same as a Son of a naughty woman, A coward, an ungrateful F-oo-l and a complete saboteur to me.

I doubt you know the meaning of that word. . . .
If you do, you are insulting Ojukwu - your HERO!!!
The hero that left his people to rot by going on EXILE.

Orikinla:
What the great Ọbáfẹ́mi Awólọ́wọ̀ achieved as Premier of Western Nigeria in one year is what Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has failed to achieve as the head of state of Nigeria. Since Ọbáfẹ́mi Awólọ́wọ̀ passed away, the Yoruba nation no longer has a leader.

I agree 100%. . . .

dayokanu:
Some interesting facts.

Germany's average age is 24.95. One of the youngest in the tournament along with countries like Cameroon, North Korea and Chile.

Germany, Italy and England are the only three squads whose players all play in their respective domestic leagues.

On the other hand, Nigeria is the only team which has no player playing in its domestic league.

Don't mind those useless Azurris. . . . .They are trying to belong to that elite crew.
They dropped Guiseppe Rossi because they wanted to name a squad of STRICTLY Serie A players.
Rossi is miles better than Quagliarella!!!

bandely:
I got mine, thanks Akin

Bandely, you are one lazy-phuck. . . .
When are you putting up the World Cup thread?
All you keep doing is chasing Akinalabi for $$$.

Justcash:
LOL! Mr Sauron: That is your point of view.

My point of view is that Awolowo was no where near Sam Mbakwe and Okpara in purposeful leadership.

A child in it's mother's stomach thinks that the size of it's mother's stomach is the size of the world.

Of course. . . . . . .
Sam Mbakwe built 2000 Universities for his people. . . . . .He also implemented free education but those boys in Aba refused.
What didn't he do? He is even greater than Nelson Mandela of South Africa.
How anyone can tell me a secessionist like Mbakwe deserves a mention borders on LUNACY. . . .

Mbakwe and Gbenga Daniels have the same level of credibility in Nigerian Politics and that's about it.

Katsumoto:
Bros I agree with you. However, the greatest Nigerian leader is always a subjective issue and for obvious reasons, Ndigbo will never accept that.

The facts speak for itself. . . . .Who cares what the Ndigbos think?
How many Prime Universities were in the West compared to the other regions back then?
Which of Azikwe or Balewa had the foresight to implement Free Education to liberate their people from illiteracy?
Only a consummate retard would even debate how astute Awolowo was as a leader. . . .

Justcash:
That Awolowo was tribalistic and regional in his approach is not an insult to him. It shows that with his position, he had to be so, in order to make the right impact and deliver to the prople he is responsible to. The west was known to be Yoruba land. He operated with that at the back of his head. He dint care If other national benefited, his sole aim was to ensure the development of yoruba land and people.
Nnamdi Azikiwe was more concerned about leading Nigeria as whole, even at the detriment of his tribe and people. He actually saw Nigeria as a whole, and could actually answer Nigeria than Igboland when asked where he was from. This explains why he even fought to be a political figure in Yorubaland. If Zik had Igbos at the back of his head, he would have concentrated on Igboland and competed to become the political figure head there, in order to represent them and compete for development. These were what Awolowo never Ignored.

Heap of applesauce. . . . .

There were 3 leaders in charge of 3 regions in Nigeria.
Awolowo had the West, Balewa was in the North and Azikwe was in the East.
How can anyone tell me Azikwe's share of expenditure went into developing Nigeria as a whole? How could that have happened?

debosky:
Have mercy dude, they've already lost BalaamBallack

DD likely out, so is Rio, so is Ballack, so is Essien. . . .premiership players dropping like flies.

Waiting for Mikel, Eboue and Van Rapist.

Katsumoto:
I never asserted that Awo was the greatest leader Nigeria ever had. I was only responding to your comment that since he only developed the west, he was a tribalistic leader.

Awolowo was the greatest leader Nigeria ever had.
If anyone says otherwise, i will piss in his face. Just because he didn't dance to the tunes of the Biafra drums doesn't make him a villain.
Awolowo couldn't sacrifice Yorubaland to be used as a battle ground at the expense of Ojukwu's selfish wet-dreams.

What are we talking about here? Awolowo never ruled the Nigerian State as a whole.
He was just a leader of the Western Region and if we compare the South West to the other parts of Nigeria(until IBB developed Abuja), the people in the East and those in the North will feel short-changed.

The development and the industrialization in the West were heads and shoulders above the rest of the country.
He educated everyone willing to go to school in the West and that included the Igbos and the Hausas/Fulanis staying in the West.
What else do these Igbo men want from him? His lungs?

dayokanu:
Why Rio why not Rooney

Don't worry, Lahm will soon fall down from the 15th floor with multiple fractures.

dayokanu:
Rio just wan get excuse to enter Soweto and smoke weed

He could order weed if he wanted to without feigning injury.
That donkey known as Heskey practically broke Rio's knee with his overzealous attitude. . . .Him wan play against USA by force.
Useless slowpoke. . . . .

soyad:
I pity IGBO people , why is that you guys alway think upside down . For any one to say that Awolowo did not do anything for Nigeria is pure madness .Do you know why Igboland is notorious for armed robery , kidnapping and crimes generally , it is because no Igbo leader was intelligent enough to do what Awolowo did for his people . Until you people change ,negativity will remain in your land ,it is an advice

Not all of them think upside down.

debosky:
Finally @ Kit

You know me bro - I don't chase women belonging to other men, I just go get mine.
Let's just say there was a disagreement that has now become history.

Stop lying. . . . .
You broke Ennyluv's marriage two years ago.

Elpieda:
@sauron, thanks for that, I actually think mine was a combination of both because in one of my cases, the personal banker said the fraudster got a hold of all my card details including my PIN, They were like it was probably gotten from a form i filled or something and they even asked if i gave out my PIN to anyone but i keot saying no i did not, And they were like maybe some friend of mine has access to my card details and all that stuff, but in the end it get resolved and I think there should be some way to detect stuff like that, cause if they dont find a way to correct this then millions of people will keep getting their money stolen and thats sad,

Every system can be taken apart. . . . .The fraudsters are not resting on their laurels.
Most times they place devices on the ATM. . . . .Wait around in a car with their laptops and copy every date.
Sometimes, gas stations and restaurants are also potential fraud sites. . . .Most of those handy machines have been tampered with to copy data.

see this joseph the dreamer ,   There's a better chance of a heavy snowfall in atacama dessert this summer

better bet your money on a better team

U don't make money betting on a better team. . . . . .What are the odds Brazil/Argentina/Germany/England will do well. . .the odds are very low.
But bet on a team like Naija qualifying from their group and you are talking of 20/1 upwards.
I am putting a cool 200 pounds on Nigeria to do well. . . . .I got nothing to lose.

Emile Heskey is a bumbling retard. . . . .
Na him go tackle Rio Ferdinand sha. . . . .What a useless baboon.

chic2pimp:
Drogba or no drogba I am banking on Ivory coast to qualify out of that group by hook or by crook. Youse two should not discount Nigeria's chances. I've already put money on Fat Yak to be the worldcup leading goalscorer.

Drogba or no Drogba. . . . .Brazil and Portugal will qualify COMFORTABLY from the group.
No one can stop those two teams. . . .Ivory Coast nor get luck.
In the last world cup, they were in the same group with Argentina and Holland. . . .

jalether:
You left out world class players like Taye Taiwo, Yobo, Shittu and almighty Etuhu. other teams better watch out

Jalether? Jalether? Jalether? How many times did i call you?
If you want to make quick money this summer. . . . .Put your bets on Nigeria.
You have been warned. . . . . . .Nigeria will cop me stacks of $$$$$$$ this summer.

Elpieda:
@poster I am so sorry this happened to you, You know this got me thinking and wondering how the Fraud detection system works in Nigerian banks. I will tell you my story and that may probably help you take the necessary action.
I am based in the states and I have had an ATM fraud twice. The fraudster used the money to buy airline tickets the first time and the second time, the money was used to buy baseball tickets and to make matters worse, the baseball tickets were sent to my house address, That made it look like i authorized these transactions myself. I went to the bank and filed an ATM fraud dispute claim. You sign some documents and they send it to their fraud detection department to investigate it. The investigation usually takes a few weeks and within those 2 weeks, there are able to know if it was authorized or not. I had my money refunded to me in about a week and within a 90 day period, the fraud investigation went on and they were able to detect the fraudtsers. I dont know what they did with them but my money was refunded in full and I suffered no liability, But like I said earlier thats the American system. It might not waork that way in Nigeria but I will say dont give up on fighting it out tooth and nail. This will teach GTb that they have to tighten up their ATM security measures because of the high level of risk involved.

The thing is. . . . . .There are two kinds of card fraud. . . .
Card Present transaction(ATM/Chip & Pin) AND Card Not Present Transaction(Internet transaction/Telephone transaction).

For the latter, Banks usually refund the victims cos anybody can get hold of any card and use that card to pay for services/order merchandises.
This kind of transactions are not PIN-verified so the Banks take any liability resulting from such transactions

In cases involving the former. . . . .Banks are reluctant to pay the victims because they don't want to believe the victims' PINs can be compromised.
Naija being Naija, i am sure they wouldn't want to pay any kinda refund to anyone be it his own fault or the fault of the system.

Ghana missing Essien and mensah out for ghana. ivory coast will also be missing DD. these 2 counties ought to be Africa's best representatives

As things stands, SA is the only african team one can bank on to go far in the torny. even at that, the chances of that happening is extremely slim.

Nigeria nko?
We have Martins, Utaka, Kanu and Mikel. . . .
Surely, we have the best squad of the African teams.
I am banking on Nigeria to make the Semis.

Are you sure about that cuz he apparently let the hospital on crutches.

Leaving with crutches is a precautionary move. . . .U know how English folks wrap their jewels in cotton-wool

Sad day for Drogba. He would miss the worldcup

I am not in your poverty bracket and stop telling retards like yourself you don't post a lot cos you have got a job.
It's simply because you cannot afford basic necessities of life. . . . .

How ironic you know i shouldn't sniff glue and yet you couldn't prevent TUBERCULOSIS wiping half of your household.
Misplaced priorities i guess.
Rapjunkie, give up. . . . .I blame the recipient of your Y-chromosomes for not using it as a mouth-wash.

Tell us why you couldn't spell 'TUBERCULOSIS' and the reason you cannot discern the difference between "You Are" and "Your"?

Stupidity platelets flow in your veins(isn't it obvious)?
U even forgot what the topic was all about. . . . The OP did not ask you to tell us which of 'SWTD' or 'Badman' was better lyrically.
So keep your blurry eyes on the ball as much as you can. . . .

1) I dont take Star, i am not that cheap, i dont shop in Netto or 99p shop

As an Ibadan man, it's probably 33.
It's even cheaper than STAR.

2) SAF own money? No wonder they are debt-free

United were debt-free before the Glazers took over and used the club to borrow money.
Until then, SAF made Man Utd the richest club in the universe so he's entitled to spend $$$$$

You provided so much link that even JM's dog saga was provided. I pity Seun i could have gave more than 100 links of Baba Fergie's fines.

Mourinho knew the rules and yet he smuggled his dog into the country without proper checks.
He got arrested and was cautioned. . . .He's a disgrace. . . .No wonder he paid out the biggest fine handed out to a single manager(200K GBP)

what is the topic st.upid?. . . . .

Lemme refresh your failing memory. . . .The topic says HHWA and the Politics of Music.
It's not about 'Badman' and 'SWTD'. . . . .It's about challenging Mode-9's credentials as the best lyricist in Nigeria.

whats any of this got to do with badman and swtd?. . . .  . . illiteracy is a disease of the mind. . . .  .next time u see a book. . . . .dont tear out the pages so u can save money on rizzla. . . . .

Dear Nairalanders,

I work with an ATM firm so i know the importance of protecting your pin and card from falling into wrong hands.  
The same situation happened to me. Money was fraudulently withdrawn from my account while i was sleeping in my house with my card in my wallet and i didnt get any alert and e-mail. GTB is fairly efficient with their alerts (txts and mails), so it was strange i didnt get one. I reported the issue the very next day and blocked the card. i was later told that my money was withdrawn from a UBA branch at Ijanikin. After writing the mandatory letter, i was told to wait a week or two. i later got a letter from  a charles Ndak with a generic reponse basically blaming me for the unlawful withdrawal. I know that a stripe card (card without the chip) is easy to clone but then how do they (the fraud guys) get your pin? is it generated using a pin generator? I went to Mr Ndak's office but was prevented from seeing him. But was given the help line and was assigned a person  to help me out. Everytime i called, i would be told that a request had been made to UBA for the images that were captured during the transaction so we can identify the person. I called everyday for almost 2 months and i was told that i should be patient, that they were retrieving the images. Only for them to tell me that the ATM's camera wasnt working at that time. imagine?
I have a few questions;

1. Why is it that i didnt get alert only for the fraudulent withdrawals whereas i had been getting for other   transactions.? Because i know that when a transaction is made on an ATM it 'hits' the banking application and after the transaction has ended an alert is automatically sent to your phone or email as requested. So how come it is[i] only[/i] for fraudulent transactions that people do not get alerts

2. Why did they have to wait almost two months to tell me that there were no images of the withdrawals because the camera wasnt working?

3. Most importantly, why is only GTB that this issue happens to? it is too frequent!!!

4. Can this issue be reported to CBN and how?

Report the issue to CBN. . . . .
This is a classic case of an inside job. Someone inside GTB is making the withdrawals and taking customers' money.
Any card can be cloned. . . . .Cloning a card isn't the most difficult task for someone working in a bank who's got all y'all details.

U need JESUS!!. . . Amen!
