It is so unfortunate that the country is at this stage on the fringe of total chaos and impunity. With the 2023 election, this is the first time voters will believe their votes will count based on the fact that the election umpire convinced us the use of BVAS. Not only that, a promised of viewing election results in real-time after the announcement of election results at various poling units. I was one of the patriotic citizen who convince a lot of youths around me to believe in the system and go out to vote on the election day.
At the polling unit where I witness the election result collated and announced by the INEC staff, the voters compelled the INEC staff to upload the result to the iReV server so we can see the result in real time. In all sincerity, the result at the polling unit for the presidential election was as follows:
Total Accredited = 76
APC = 29
LP = 42
PDP = 5.
For over 48 hours the result was not presented on the iReV portal. I took another sweep to check tonight only to find a different result as follows:
Total Accredited Voters = 41
APC = 21
LP = 18
PDP = 0.... How?
This comes down to the fact that even if other aggrieved political parties approach the law court, the evidence to present is the record on the INEC iReV portal which is not in tandem with the figures declared at the polling units.
The comical part of this shenanigan is seeing the name of the LP party agent as Ernest Diala when we quite so sure the LP party agent's name on that day was Segun Something.....absolute a Yoruba man. How come seeing something else. this is a typical proof that the result on the portal has been doctored or changed.
I weep for this nation.

They put in buildings as well most especially high rise or heavy structures

MrJames007:
I only see expansion joints on bridges/flyovers o.

A friend of mine approached me as a builder in assisting him with a decision choice.
He has a budget of #15m. He got an offer of half plot of land within developed area in Lagos for 14m and offer of full plot of land for10.5m in a dry land in a gated Estate in Magboro. If he goes for the Lagos own, he won't have fund to erect the structure but going for Magboro can still make him start something but considering the distance to his office and the usual traffic on the Lagos ibadan road. I told him to pick Magboro. I just wanted to be sure I gave a good advice.

Do anyone know much about wave tv in Lagos? Which channel they air their programs or their website. Thanks

Abegi o. Who watched the match or knew who watched it?

Firstly pardon me because I am not certain which section to post this but I crave for the indulgence of the Admin to move it to the right section.

There's this popular saying that I want to know its origin. What it stands for. Why those specific numbers.For instance.. Tolu and Dayo have been friends from childhood. They are like 5 & 6. What does 5 and 6 means. Why 5&6 and not 8&9?

Just being curious.

Do people actually understand the use of some words. Giant? Is this baby scorpion you called Giant. I have seen a colony of scorpion all big and darker than charcoal. A full grown scorpion is black and thick with hard back like crabs.

COVID-19: There's been an increase in number of people using Ankara clothing for face mask and nose guard. Even a Governor in this country became an ambassador for it. My worries bothered on how safe is the use of this material as a safety measure against the virus. My little observation of the regular medical nose mask shows that it has 3 layers. A outer layer, the middle filter and the inner layer. Both outside and inner layers keep in position the filtering layer aside protecting it from other contaminating elements. On the other hand, the regular Ankara mask is porous and can allow both pure and impure air to pass through them. As a matter of fact, it's just a regular clothes. I may need the experts in the house to throw more light on this because I'm not so comfortable with the use of Ankara mask if all we're fighting for is the victory over COVID-19 pandemic.

The pot is made from titanium
A light strong grey lustrous corrosion-resistant metallic element used in strong lightweight alloys (as for airplane parts); the main sources are rutile and ilmenite.
A marketer introduced it to me. You don't need to add condiments to your cooking. It will generally bring all you need to make your cooking sweet come out naturally. It's nice but too expensive. The other fact that put me off is that when I start using it, you can't eat outside again or foods cooked with other types of pot. It's for basically those that takes their health matters seriously.

I made this prediction few days back so many people tagged me a black sheep. Now it's happening. Nigeria is trailing Croatia by 2 goals

I woke up this morning feeling bad because I had a dream that Nigeria team lost their first match in Russia against Croatia by 0:2. I'm feeling sad now because my dream always comes true.

To determine the type of foundation suitable for your proposed project you need to engage the services of a geotechnical Engineer. I'm glad to announce to you that I'm one. We test the soil with different equipments, analyze soil samples and will produce a geotechnical report that's universally acceptable. The content of the report will indicate the allowable bearing capacity of the soil, the lithology of the soil, the materials and properties of the materials encountered, the depth of water, the chemical content of the water, then advice on best foundation type, mode and time suitable for construction.

I guess he wanted to write "Motor accident is bad".... Let's pardon him for his typographical error.

My phone is 4G enabled. Since it's a dual sim phone, the 4G appeared for MTN network and I used it for browsing and I saw the difference.

Good evening fellow members. I need to know if Glo network actually have 4G network. I changed my SIM card to 4G SIM card and I subscribe to the 4G data plan but I have been moving around Lagos the 4G network never appeared on the top display menu and browsing hasn't been any different from the way it used to be. Meanwhile I did same on MTN network and I truly saw the 4G. So I just wanted to know if there's something to be done that I have to done or Glo network never had 4G as claimed. Thanks.

I guess it's a general assumption that husband should stay late to have an overall check of the security situation of the house while the wife gets up early to get the house set for the day.

"A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning."

Honore de Balzac.

I sent that quote as a broadcast to my contacts on BBM and it has been generating argument. Some in support. Some are against. Eg. What if the wife is nocturnal in nature, must the husband keep vigil because of her.
So let's reason together here and hear other people opinion..

During a movie shoot,

Director: Now we will release the lion and it will chase you, it wont bite,
Director : Now action!!
Actor: Wait, wait. How do u know it won't bite me
Director: It's on the script now
Actor: Has the lion read the script too?

An argument ensued between my wife and I on how often should sponge be used when you bath. She uses it each day but my own is once in three days. Though I use soap daily but sometimes without sponge. I believe if you use if too often you might develop a harsh skin. Besides, you hardly see any soap advert seeing the participant using sponge. So it means it's not too important.

So to my question, how often should a sponge be used when having your bath?

Jude 1:20 advised us to pray in Holy Ghost to build up our faith. Does that translate to speaking in tongue while praying. If it does, can someone learn to speak in tongue If one can't speak it because I heard it's been taught by some Christian folks. Or do praying in holy Ghost mean someone should pray with the leading of Holy Spirit.

I need your views and thought.

Nowadays kids!!

I was home alone with my boys on Saturday. Discovered that they were idle, so I demanded my seven year old boy to come and wash my socks. I was astonished when he asked me How much am going to pay him for washing them. I demanded why must I pay him for washing my socks. His reply was afterall I used to pay the dry cleaner for washing my clothes. Well, I told him point blank that am not paying a dime. I washed my father's clothes and didn't pay me. now it's his turn to do same.

My worries now is
1. Did this happen as a result of my bad parenting
2. Children of these days proving to be smarter than we thought
3. Influenced by peer group
4. Unwarranted love of money.

Lemme have your view and possibly share your own experience so we can all learn together.

Do you think Lagos State BRT should change their bus to this to curb the problem of insufficient number of buses

I attended all boys and boarding school over 20 years ago. It took me awhile to mix up in my university days especially to pple of opposite sex. I'm equally an introvert. I wanted to believe maybe due to my nature other than the kind of school I attended that resulted in this but Am not too sure.

That's why I need others opinion

Does attending same sex school has any effect on the pyschic of the students positively or the other way round above a counterpart from a mixed school?

Apart from pyschic what are the effects on characters and attitudinal defects on such individuals.

Your contribution is important to a proposed decision.
