Phones / Re: MTN, Glo, Airtel Set To Increase Data, Call Tariffs by shevon: 10:57am On May 23, 2018 |
DSS1335:Abi o, 0.005% of 15billion is just 750k, and that is why they are complaining of multiple taxation and cost transfer to customers? The annoying thing is that the increase in call/data rate is neve commensurate to the charges being levied on them: We might end up pay nothing less than 1% more because government is imposing about 0.005% levy on them. Besides, this, what has cost of call got to do with electronic transactions that is data based? |

Celebrities / Re: Ozzy Etomi: "Husbands Pay Housewives Salaries" - Waje, Dencia & Eku Edewor React by shevon: 12:13pm On May 10, 2018 |
Faithway10: Of all of them, Eku Edewor is the only person that is thinking rationally. I am not in support for any woman not to be empowered, either by way of getting a paid employment or having a business of her own, either started by herself of the husband: every woman deserves to be independent. But in a situation where she finds herself as a stay at home wife/mother and the husband does does not even have enough to save after handling all the house expenses (including taking care of the wife's needs) where is he supposed to get the money to pay the wife salary? If the man can comfortably afford to take of the home and also have a side chick (like some men do ) and does not think he should pay his wife salary, then he deserves any name he is called within the context of this discuss. I understand some men have trust issues, like Sai B (if you are thinking Bubu, na you sabi) and would force their wives to stay at home instead of being ogled by other men, then you should have a plan to give her what she would have been earning if she was forced out of a business or job. So many factors are supposed to be considered when discussing this type of topic, it is not fair to just generally say stay at home mothers or wives should be paid salaries (not that I am against it if the partner can afford it) 2 Likes |

Business / Re: CBN To Order Banks To Repay Illegal Charges With Interest by shevon: 3:11am On May 09, 2018 |
allanphash7:Those ones are just robbers. Sometime last month, I went to fix my phone and forgot my GTB card at home, so I transferred money from my GTB to Access Bank account on the 10th. I also tried to buy N100 airtime to make a quick call that day and it failed, complained about it and the debit was reversed on the 13th. Could you believe Access Bank charged me N50 for stamp duty for the transaction that occurred on the 13th? When I called, email and called them out on Tweeter to complain that I was charged for getting a refund for a failed transaction, their thieving service reps said it was not for the transaction stated in the narration but for the inflow into my account on the 10th. The simple question I asked was: Are you sure you know the CBN rule concerning stamp duties? They all said they do; I had to go and pull CBN circular showing transactions that were exempted (intra or inter bank self to self transfer, deposits less than N1,000.00 and payments into a savings account). Even the eleribu that I spoke to on the phone was still arguing and asking me if I were a banker. Do I need to be a banker to know my rights? Last last, I had to start mentioning CBN in my tweets before they reversed the stamp duty. They assumed they were dealing with a Nigerian that will swallow anything they threw at; dem for surprise wetin I for do if dem no reverse my N50 7 days after I reported it. Awon ole jati-jati. |
Politics / Re: Lawmakers Vote Against Giving Fathers Paternity Leave by shevon: 12:34pm On May 04, 2018 |
In a society that is working, this shouldn't be an issue. I remember when my boy came, I was in Romania and I was asked how I was going to use my Paternity and Parental leave. I told them we had nothing of such for men in Nigeria, they were surprised because in Romania, aside the 15 working days the father of a child has to stay at home after birth, he still can alternate with his wife if they choose to take Parental leave of 24 months. Under their law, within that 2 years, whoever chooses to take the parental leave will receive 85% from the mean of their net income within 12 months prior,but the amount cannot be less than RON1,063.00 (which is about N98,000.00). So, if the man likes, he can take 2 months off while his wife works and when he returns to work, the wife will continue to stay at home. The amount stated above is subject to some conditions which is no big deal if you ask me and they also have some other benefits too. I sha don tire for this our Labor law, honestly, it doesn't favour the works in any way, especially when you consider what expatriates enjoy when they work in this country for the same company you work with. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

soberdrunk:You don't know Romanians then. I've lived there for a while and I can tell you for a fact that they adore blacks. Like when I was staying in Campina, my friend and I were the only blacks in the whole town and they gave of VIP treatment everywhere we go. I travelled a lot while I was there: Sinaia, Bran, Brasov, Snagov...; everywhere we went was the same. The only place you'd go to and see more black people is Bucharest. Even a guy we met that invited us to his house had people troop in to see "black" people is his house, he was so proud. His wife even told us if she had met a black person, she would not have thought of marrying a Romanian. So, I doubt her familie is not happy she's marrying a black person. 1 Like |
