Short-sighted position. Bandits and Boko Haram were there when Obasanjo was in power. The leader of Boko Haram was killed in Obasanjo era. Bandits have been there since 1960s. The Chief Justice that delivered judgement against open grazing in 1965 did so after clashes between farmers and cattle rearers. So, this man should go back to history books.

You no history so?
Yusuf was killed during OBJ's era or Yaradua?

. With due respect to everybody in Bitcoin business, I want to ask : Which country uses NBtcoin as a legal tender in the world? Which country accepts virtual currency as a. legal tender for business? Answers to the questions justify the ban placed on the Bitcoin business. It is indeed a shady method of transaction of businesses

When you could have simply used Google?

Misinformation

Bitcoin was not banned.

Only financial institutions were stopped from processing cryptocurrency transactions .

Was anyone arguing about people buying their cars back, is it the same as the fictitious 250k fine you were parroting, your attention span and comprehension skill is quite bad though!
Lol, you see you're the one embarrassing yourself falsely claiming a 250k fine when none exist in the new Lagos Traffic Laws. I even told you to get yourself acquainted with the new Lagos State Traffic law signed this year but instead, you insisted on parroting the same tale. Now go and read paragraph 65 of that law since y ou want me to cite it.

You now believe they can buy back their vehicle which is an option? , so what is then the excuse you are making for the man?

And yes, if you have ₦250k within a period of time, you can get your vehicle back before it goes into action. Its like an 'unwritten law' within that department.

Have a nice day.

Nightalan:
Can you cite the paragraph of the new Lagos State Traffic Law signed this year that says you pay "250k" within a stipulated time frame or risk forfeiture?
What is logical about parroting the same nonsense over and over again? You're ill informed, probably not even based in Lagos but you're here with your hoity toity simplistic argument about what you know nothing of.
You deviated because my initial comment you quoted was about the new draconian law which did not leave room for owners of impounded vehicles to get their cars back and not sorely about the isolated incident of this thread alone. You're pretty slow.

I knew it was heading to name calling and insult once you have nothing to say.

Now, post the so called law you're claiming leaves no room for owners to get their cars back.

There has been cases of people buying their vehicles back, except you don't have a TV or have access to news. (some even made news here, look for it, I ain't going to do that for you)

Any attempt to go gutter again, I will leave you to your folly.

Penny wise... Pound foolish!!
Just send her packing and lease out the house, it will yield profit in return for you. That would have been the best pay back!

Maybe the land is in her name

Nightalan:
Get yourself acquainted with the new Lagos State Traffic Laws, particularly on One-Way driving and it's penalty which was what my comment was referencing but you keep deviating and can't even keep a straight conversation. This back and forth has ran it's course. Your attention span is terrible. Bye!

What on earth are you saying?
The one way law says "pay ₦250k within a stipulated time frame or outright forfeiture after expiration with an option of you buying it back at the auction.

Point out the deviation or are you looking for a way to run away from a logical conversation as a typical Nigerian?

Nightalan:
No one is holding brief for anyone deliberately caught breaking the law, but when the people enforcing the law are making it impossible for it to be obeyed simply because they want to extort and prey on you, you will understand it's not always black and white!

Extort?

Are the laws not clear?
Did they ask him for any other fine out of the official fine which is ₦250k or forfeiture after a certain period?

peeps4u:
I have broken traffic rule before, got stopped and paid fines.
Nothing spiritual about what happened. He got himself in the mess by attempting to turn and run on that busy road. It has nothing to do with village people.

Simple!

Nightalan:
It's always easy to pass judgment when you've never been a victim. There are so many streets in Lagos, especially in the suburban areas without a single sign.
There's one in Gbagada, close to Grace High School, there's a police station right at the beginning of the street, in fact it's the first building, but there's no single signage that the street is One-Way. Instead the policemen will rather hide and sit under the tree beside a kiosk waiting for unsuspecting drivers new to the area to apprehend and extort. It's a norm in many parts of Lagos. So get off your high horse!

You see them!

So to say the right thing means passing judgment?
You think we all can't break laws?
This una attitudes won't make this country good at all.

If he mistakenly broke the law, a law-abiding person won't try to run away, but I believe you don't understand that aspect.

It takes a law breaker to want to run away after committing an offense.

yeye dey smell.

Nightalan:
Fear of your car being auctioned at Alausa will make people start doing crazy and unimaginable things to escape! It could have being worse.
The Govt needs to review that law.

Why all these when you can save yourself unnecessary wahala by obeying the law?

Not someone like you
except we have short memory in this country
or we just love to be crazy and suffer.

flokii:
I don't envy folks living in those countries with extreme weather conditions.. If only we had good leaders and everyone doing what is right, who would dream of running overseas? instead the Whites would be the ones running to Africa to enjoy our weather.

I hope Blacks in Africa get their acts right someday.

Like they fell from the sky

when you were busy collecting monthly salary for doing nothing, you expect them to still do something?

So is it FG that is to do what your governors are supposed to do for you?

Is it the FG that is building other states?

timilehin007:
shey u don build airport for Benin Republic abi

They have airports.

Rewriting of the constitution (by representatives elected by real people from every LG) is one way

bixton:
Who do you think will create it @ the bold?
It's the response that will make all other things fall into their rightful place in time.

Another option is a referendum by elected representatives from every region.

e Don do.

Na construction thread we dey.

bixton:
To the first bold....
If we had not had the nigerian/biafran war then it would still be.

To the second bold.....
Nothing stops those of the old region to have a common ground to work together to bring economic prosperity to their region.

The mentality of the typical nigerian is to work as an individual rather than as a people.

Do we have a common goal as a Nigerian?

What makes a Nigerian a Nigerian when we don't even know in clear term what makes a Yoruba from Ijebu and the yoruba from Ilesha Yoruba?

When we have a common goal or ideology, then you can talk about working together.

Make I no flood this place.

godquality:
Guys am back again with another question. the roofing is completed now. Am grateful for the advise received so far from you guys. it helps in shaping my knowledge on building.

So am trying to get the windows for the whole house done. i have seen a lot of aluminum casement windows with in-built burglary. How strong are these or would i need an additional burglary proof?

Or would it be just better to get the windows without the in-built burglary and get a separate iron burglary.

If its not a bungalow, maybe you can do seperate burglary for the ground floor and the 3 in one for the top floor.

1979 - 1983 are the symptoms but it’s normal teething issue in a developing world. It took SA decades to get it right. We were just trying to get along so conflicts are expected. Aren’t we living with it right now?

What we’re witnessing now is 10x the reason the 2nd republic was truncated by the millitia boys. Remember, they cited charges of corruption and administrative incompetence as reasons for military intervention.

The 1985 overthrow cited misuse of power, violations of human rights by key officers of the SMC, and the government's failure to deal with the country's deepening economic crisis as justifications for the takeover.

That’s how everything started.

The 1983 overthrow cited the same, hope you know?

To me, our problems started from the first republic enroute the second republic.

The greatest undoing was changing from regional system of government to what we currently have.

It's a total rubbish.

All the high buildings you're talking about are products of regional system of government.

So the Italians will send their army to fight rebels in THE Congo?
You think war is all about having "army"?
Do they have the fund to fight a war?

Kobicove:
Let's not fool ourselves, the best army on the African continent cannot withstand the Italian army!

Except EU reacts, his death counts for nothing because Italy is a shadow of its own self.

We are paying the price of a truncated democratic process.

A lot of thing were going right till militia boys started participating in politics and wearing overflowing agbada.

The leaders who enjoyed the good times in the 50s and 60s and chose not to do the right thing are the symptoms and not the cause of Nigeria problems. The real cause is unprincipled politicians and abuse of democracy.

God has given us real and selfless visionary leaders in the 70s and 80s but the military coup of 1983 truncated our young and developing democracy. Most of these visionary leaders were thrown into prison, incarcerated and thrown into exile.

Our political landscape is now filled with theorists and selfish politicians. Ever since we lost our democracy in 1983, we’ve been finding “x” in Nigeria.

Imagine all these beautiful projects were done with cocoa money, not oil money o.

Leaders are made, not elected.

Some of our country's problems started from 1979 (Shagari), not really 1983 except we want to be blind to what happened between 1979 and 1983.

That 200,000 usd could build another house na

This amount can't build another house of this status.

I wonder the kind of house it will even build in the US.

8 months indeed

Did he congratulate her last year?
2 years ago?
3 years ago
So why is it news now?

Nero2424:
I pulled this from the first page of this thread

"Note: Please no products or services advertisements... there are plenty of other threads for that already. No buying and selling on this thread"


No advert means no advert. anyone who will look away when some people put up their advert here and ask someone else not to put up one here is not being fair.

Fair point.

Pls Explain to us how these products are used In the construction process, I like to learn"

I am waiting for him to explain to us too.

Those types you see here.

Are these products not related to construction?

In as much as I don't like El-Rufai, I must admit he just pointed out to Nigerians the solution to their woes... Being part of the selection process is key to good governance in Nigeria, just imagine if all the Nigerians breaking and setting good records in different industry, departments abroad are part of the selection process instead of the present greedy old men in different political parties that dictates for more than 200million people how the country will be run...
Important lesson to pick from here.... Good and capable people should get involved and secure a seat in the table of selection...#Chase El-Rufai and his Goons out of politics, # Chase all political old men out of Nigerian politics.

The thinking of an average Nigerian when given power is not that different from that of a politician.

If you doubt me, check how ogas treat their workers.

Masters treating their servants

Just look around.
