Family / Re: My Mother Threatens To Commit Suicide If I Don't Leave The House by SKYQUEST(m): 1:33am On Jan 01, 2023

You don't need to tell people all this. Everyone is passing through one challenge or the other

Let the OP be. Sometimes, some heart burden just get lighter when you let it out. However, one cannot cut off his mother from his life. Even if she is a witch, she is your mother. Somehow, things will just sort out itself.
Education / Re: ASUU Rejects 35% Salary Increase For Professors; Wants 100% by SKYQUEST(m): 8:08pm On Sep 09, 2022
Nigerians please keep dreaming. You want quality University education and people going there wants to pay peanuts because government should fund it? If you want world class Universities in Nigeria, it will not be government that will fund it, take it or leave it. Basic universal education: Primary and Secondary is what the government has the responsibility to make compulsory and available to every Nigerians. That is where the majority of education funding should be going. You want Nigeria Oxford or Cambridge, students sponsors should pay for it. That is why these two schools and others in its categories are world class. ASUU will continue to go on strike because government cannot fund the Universities to world class, it is not possible except every other things will shut down!
Romance / Re: She Cheated With A Married Man Now This. Please Advice. by SKYQUEST(m): 4:13pm On Aug 09, 2022
cowboyvs:


The painful part is that this girl has a wonderful side that no guy can easily ignore. She is not demanding, she is loving and caring. She is beautiful and clean. Infact, I will certify her 100% in other aspects except the area I jst pointed out. It feels so crazy losing that kind of girl because of such a stup*d indiscretion by her.

if you put her away, nobody will blame you because infidelity is a very grievous consideration which no man will excuse. However, you need to think twice about putting her away. One, you thinks she does not give you headache, she is respectful and she is non demanding. When you eventually get married to a woman and she lacks these three, then you will REALLY UNDERSTAND the true meaning of a woman giving you peace of mind. Two, I believe at her age of 22, a number of women are in the exuberance of youthful exploration and they will make plenty of mistakes. Fast forward to a more advance age when their head cools down, they will not be able to imagine that they did so many such horrible things.

I see a good woman in that girl despite her behaviors. The most important factor you should consider is not her infidelity while courting her but the fact that if it possible for you to live with her without giving a thought to her past misdemeanors. If you cannot please walk away right now because that mindset will determine how much good your marriage to her will be.

Once again, a woman who will respect you and give you peace of mind in your marriage is priceless, I hope you will find one,

Business / Re: Share Your Experience As A POS Vendor by SKYQUEST(m): 1:10am On Jun 11, 2021
I once made a transfer of N100,000 to a customer using a POS. It appeared to have failed so I did another one. Fast forward to balancing my account at the end of the day, account "no gree" balance with huge difference. I checked and discovered two successful transfers of N100,000 to the same account. Following morning, I located the customer who came to make the transfer and the beneficiary was contacted. The beneficiary bluntly denied he had two N100,000 transfers in his account. We appealed to him to go to his bank to confirm the second transfer. Third day came, he claimed to have gone to his bank and insisted he has just one transfer of the transfers. Consequently, I then used my contact in his bank to check his account and behold it was confirmed he had the two N100,000 transfers in his account. With this information, we confronted him headlong and within 30 minutes "ogbeni" wired N100,000 back into my account. POS business, "plenty profit, plenty risk!".

Crime / Re: EFCC Arrests 16 Alleged Internet Fraudsters In Lagos by SKYQUEST(m): 12:01pm On Jan 26, 2021

I wish all the internet fraudstars will turn into Armed Robbers and kindnapers that's when some people above me will understand what's like in living in a jungle where resources are not being distributed.

Some guys just come here and claim saints use other countries as Yardstick but don't really know what's going on.

As for me only guys doing LOCAL should be dealt with just like other countries do, International scammers should be left alone unless he got reported that's when prosecution can take place .

Arresting guys who are not reported by their victims or interpol is not a wise Move . You're only denting your image . You'll never see criminal cases uploaded on FBI page .

What breaks my heart is that people who criticizes yahoo boys don't actually hate crime but feel oppressed . If you support any politician that steals from you directly and criticize someone that doesn't care about you're big a hypocrite.
Boko haram , bandicts, Niger delta militants are given Amnesty for causing mayhem while guys who choose to mind their business are prosecuted very Soon those guys will go back to their vomit that's when Nigeria will be sweeter we're on a long Ride grin grin

Before you quote me know that No country is being built legitimately is either you steal from another country or oppress one . Even the so called sane country that you run too And the big companies that you work for and wear bow tie to form legit don't have a clean foundation .

How many of you will resign from your company if you find out That the firm is built on Fraud? "there's no clean Money"

Keep rationalising your wickedness. Your days are numbered!

...the report says 15 suspects were realeased UNCONDITIONALLY. Shyy! No bail money was given and received? You mean these people got into Nigerian police custody and got released without even paying the minimum N20,000 bail money to SARS, when some even pay over N100,000 to get their bail. Shyy, my grand mother is a virgin!

iamvictorbassey:
Lemme take time this evening to enlighten you guys on why some happenings in Nigeria will never be looked into. Because I've noticed that most Nairalanders are not in tune with reality, rather idealism.

Now, there's something called "food chain" if you remember your primary 4 science. That's what's playing out here. You can continue to wail and scream all you like it's not gonna change a thing.

The SARS unit you meet on the road, before they were given such strategic location to mount, their OC (Officer in Command) already gave them a target to meet of maybe 10,000,000/week depending on how sensitive the area is. Now if they don't meet this target, they'll be replaced (in which they don't wanna risk).

The OC has been told by the Deputy Commissioner to meet a target of maybe 100,000,000 from his 20 teams (X) the number of OCs in that state.

The DCs have taken 200,000,000 to the CP.

The CPs X 36 states have taken 3,600,000,000 to the IG

The IG is gonna take 1B to who put him there. And so on till it gets to the C in C or fades away from our understanding.


And you sit here on Nairaland and say the foot soldiers should not meet their target? Laughable.

Are you saying that the C in C should issue an order asking them to stop doing what is bringing Money to their pockets? Laughable grin

Get this straight from today, whenever something which ought to be done right is intentionally done wrong just understand that someone/some people are on the benefitting end.

You think all your hashtags (ENDSARS), posts on Nairaland et all, blog posts don't get to their notice? They do. But Oga they won't end shit.
If you think they don't see it, why is that one small hate speech about them (that we did not even hear about o) DSS will go and pick the person. (Even this one I'm typing sef, I'm not safe) grin. But full protest and online campaign will not be heard. Oga read in between the lines now.

You can scream all you want online, nothing is gonna happen.

What pains me most is, it's the southerners (SARS Officers) that kill themselves (the southerners) the most. I can drive in the North for 2 months before seeing SARS once. But southerners don't like each other damma, so they kill themselves like goats then blame northerners everytime for their woes. As a SARS officer you can't try all these rubbish up north. They'll transfer you that same week.


This makes a lot of sense

Twice I have filled the Sterling bank Dispute form on their mobile app, twice I have spoken to one of the bank staff on the issue, but till date, June 1, no positive response or reversal into my bank.

If you try to read the file with the read_csv( ) function, an error will be thrown because the file is not a comma seperated values (csv) file.

Try run the under listed code on the file:

import pandas as pd
from pandas import DataFrame
df = pd.read_excel('split.xlsx',names=['Benf'])
#seperate each of the column elements into different list
a = df.Benf.str.split().str[0].tolist()
b = df.Benf.str.split().str[1].tolist()
c = df.Benf.str.split().str[2].tolist()
d = df.Benf.str.split().str[3].tolist()
df=pd.DataFrame() #create an empty dataframe
df['First Digit']=a #add the first column to the dataframe and name it First Digit
df["Benford's Set"]=b
df['Data Set X']=c
df['Deviations']=d
df

You will come up with an excel file that looks like this:

Worst atrocities than this case has happened and still happens because there is no system in place that will punish this kind of police officers; if my dear President or Lagos state governor reads this story, they will probably just wave it off as the usual thing; business as usual. But if I were in that position, every officer in that police station and every Nigerian who has a hand in this national embarrassment, will not only get sacked and loose all his entitlements, I will make sure they all go to very long prison according to the dictates of the law. But who I'm I, and this is Nigeria where nothing really work while they are busy fighting corruption.

Even if you want to go into yahoo having a basic understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and python will give you a upper hand in it. Or better still you should learn and read more about SOCIAL ENGINEERING. Proficiency in social engineering alone can make you do wonders in yahoo and fraud in general. You can even do outsourcing (the route I intend taking) on upwork if you know the basics of of JavaScript and python. I ventured into yahoo but guilty feelings inside of me could not allow me to do it( oh Bob conscience wan kill me) So I had to settle for a web development course on udemy. When I understand the basics and inner workings of web development then I can source for projects and outsource them for a little profit.
