My take on this.

Everyone involved in pension scams should be speedily tried, convicted and shot publicly in televised firing squads.

No plea bargains, no deals cut to returns stolen loot. All stolen funds must be coughed up, all assets seized and confiscated with extreme prejudice.

We are finished o!!!!
Buhari is dealing with us gradually and some blinded fellows are busying singing his praises!!

No. YOU are finished, because all the education in the world has failed to instill common sense in your head.

People with sense have been telling you and your fellow myopic clowns that there was no merger of the subjects...they are just being put in a group called 'Religious and National Values' and will remain as distinct subjects yet you people are going to town with wrong info.

I'm just tired of you fellows.

Someone who writes like he was educated in a mechanic workshop ranked Universities based on 'personal research' and people who write in flawless grammar are arguing with him.

Is this not a sign of severe confusion?

From the first line, it should have been apparent the OP clearly lacks the competence to make this type of judgment. Or at least his judgment should not be taken seriously

gucci20:
See what I killed in my house last nite! Pls, help me put it on d front page!!

What the f**k is that crappy 'nice one' overlay on pictures you folks put, and why exactly do you think it adds any value?

Sold

How did such a low level, utterly daft hoax make it to the front page?

Rubbish. That line of reasoning holds no water.

Remember at Ntel launching, Ntel promises that first 100,000 subscribers will be getting free on-net calls for life and also free 3 months of data services.

Now, you shouldn’t expect Ntel after promising all that, to throw up their SIMs in the air just like that.

Actually, yes we should expect Ntel to sell their SIM cards. No matter what scenario you look at, the chances of them selling 100k SIM cards and selling out is absolutely zero. Don't overestimate demand.

The real reason why Ntel isn't on sale is that they were not ready at all. The only reason why they 'launched' on April 8th was because of the dubious benefit of launching on a date (08/04) that looks like their number (0804). Unfortunately, that plan has now backfired, with the launch buzz dying down and potential customers becoming increasingly irate.

Meanwhile, we still see their army of twitter bots spamming us with 'news' that Ntel has 'started service'.

The OP is posting misleading information, anyway. Saying the Ntel SIM is 'scarce' indicates that it is on sale but supplies are limited or cannot meet demand. As far as I know, not a single SIM card has been sold to the general public and Ntel has yet to announce any retail locations.

In summary, Ntel are not ready or serious. Their marketing is crap, the website is shi'tty, and they keep putting out contradictory info about their network, their services and compatible devices.

The makeup artist is good....



But why is this lady taking so many pics lately

That isn't just makeup. The photo has been seriously airbrushed and filtered.

If the planned ife grand resort is anything like the terrible Inagbe grand resort, they can keep it.

Selling a new, sealed copy of Street Fighter 5.

Excellent game!

Price is 14k

Let me know if you're interested.

showing me my mistakes without correction makes you a dummy

Anyway thanks for that
But that will never take away the zombie in you

Why should I 'correct' you for mistakes I would not expect a secondary school student to make? Even when I was in JSS2, I would have been mortified to make such basic errors. Why should I be teaching you - a grown man - the difference between 'their' and 'they'?

Apologize to the community that gathered money to send you to school and your English language teacher. Pray to God for humility and promise not to eat meat for three months as penance.

You should fix your grammar first before attempting to insult your betters!

Staggering how many Nairalanders cannot read or comprehend simple English.

The army is not saying it is propaganda on the part of CNN or APC. The spokesman is saying it is propaganda on the part of Boko Haram to use the girls as leverage against Nigeria.

Simple text, but the wailers are struggling to comprehend, as usual.

http://edition.cnn.com/2016/04/13/africa/chibok-girls-new-proof-of-life-video/index.html

https://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnnnext/dam/assets/160413122344-16-chibok-girls-super-169.jpg

Maiduguri, Nigeria (CNN)They were stolen from their beds in a school dormitory: hundreds of teenage girls kidnapped by gunmen.

A few dozen escaped to tell of the night Boko Haram militants brought terror to a Nigerian girls' school.
From the rest, silence. No sign of where they had been taken or what could have happened to them for almost two years, even as the world screamed #BringBackOurGirls.

Hundreds of parents left, day after day, night after night, and then months with no information.
Until now.
CNN obtained a video of some of the "Chibok Girls" sent to negotiators by their captors as a "proof of life."
The video had been seen by negotiators and some members of the government.
But no one had shown the parents. Until now.

Rifkatu Ayuba catches sight of her long-lost, desperately missed, now 17-year-old. "My Saratu!" she wails, reaching out to a laptop screen, the closest she's been to her child in two years. She is desperate to comfort her little girl, but helpless.
Saratu Ayuba is one of 15 girls seen in the recording shown to some of the families for the first time at an emotional meeting this week. Wearing a purple abaya, with a patterned brown scarf covering her hair, Saratu stares directly into the camera.
"I felt like removing her from the screen," Ayuba tells us, desperate to pluck Saratu from the mysterious location where she is being held and bring her home. "If I could, I would have removed her from the screen."
The video is believed to have been made last December as part of negotiations between the government and Boko Haram.
It was released by someone keen to give the girls' parents hope that some of their daughters are still alive, and to motivate the government to help release them.
The girls, their hair covered and wearing long, flowing robes, line up against a dirty yellow wall. They show no obvious signs of maltreatment.

In summary, there's a video of 15 of the Chibok girls the Government has had since December 2015, which CNN has now shown to the parents.

With the girls identified by the parents and some of their fellow classmates, I hope nobody is still out there calling this a scam.

I wonder how much you guys get paid for these poorly disguised advert posts?

Next time the people behind this want to fake something to gain viral fame, let them work on the time intervals between SMS messages.

While it is undoubtedly an act of barbarism to whip students, one must question the rationale of the OP and his cohorts illegally occupying the hostel after being evicted.

Quakertellicus1:
In some developing economies (e.g. some of the post-Soviet states), shell companies allow private entrepreneurship to survive in an environment where an inadequate legal system leads to arbitrariness and corruption. In these challenging environments, entrepreneurs operating a relatively small private business with limited resources sometimes set up shell enterprises to lower or avoid taxes, because tax avoidance or evasion may be a necessity for business survival in situations where the level of taxation is penal, government officials (including tax officials) demand bribes, working capital is in short supply, and tax legislation is hostile to private entrepreneurial businesses, e.g. when tax laws are extremely complicated and change arbitrarily and rapidly

Oh, caution is always good, i agree. But in this case, where churches are not taxed a single penny, I cannot imagine any excuse for him to indulge in tax avoidance, especially when the God he claims to worship tells Christians to pay the legal tax.

Quakertellicus1:
I do....but they are not particularly illegal...unless the cash there was gotten via illegal means.

Most of them use Shell companies for tax avoidance or to hide assets from divorce lawyers.

CAre to explain why a PAstor, who pays no tax for church activities should be squirreling away wealth he is not supposed to have, based on his public activities?
What other business does he have? The Bible says 'Give unto Ceaser what belongs to Ceaser'. Yet this Pastor is deliberately avoiding giving 'Ceaser' his due, despite having received a massive amount of free tax breaks.


Anyone defending this is a dolt.

aventura:
gibberish as usual no wonder you guys are termed zombies..

You have the characteristics of a habitual zombie. Run along...

Are you pained, little one?

You need to work on your logic. This level of opposition is...laughable. I hope you don't get paid for this.

odikimi:
But Oba Akiolu has right to threaten Igbos of disposing them into the lagoon if they vote for Agbaje? I trust u never mobilized against him when he said that? I was in law school then and was surprised on how my Yoruba friends were defending the Oba

So...despite a law degree, you can still argue in defense of this nonsense?

This is why I tell people that the problem with Nigeria is not just with the politicians.

aventura:
enlightened one, ehat part of my post did you not understand. That everything is in order except the origin of the money which remains vacuous. What is so difficult to comprehend in that or the part where this could be another sensational breaking news that would come and go without any tangible thing coming from it.

This breaking news stunt is gradually losing steam as nothing of such nature has been put to bed already.

We agree on one thing I guess which is the maladministration of the previous government so the earlier this government start getting some convictions the better for them.

Nigerians are tired of this media trial.

Intellectually challenged one, this IS an actual trial. No part of what you saw there was issued by the Government. This is actual reporting from the trial. So your initial line about this being meant as a distraction is just plain inane.

What the hell do you mean by 'media trial'? I've seen these same words spouted at random by empty headed fellows, and it's annoying every time.

Opposition is a good thing, but PLEASE you owe it to the folks who sacrificed for your education to do it with common sense.

mekaboy:
I want every detail of how buharis election was funded. From how he borrowed money for ticket to how he paid it back . And where the person that gave him the money got it.

I want to see the account details of all the money spent, from which account they came and the balance after withdrawal.

Thanks

It's good to want things. Send a formal request to the APC leadership to ask for this data.

However, this has no bearing on metuh's court case and you can be sure his lawyers - who are undoubtedly much smarter than you - will not be using such an inane line of reasoning in their defence.

aventura:
Nothing should be out of place here except that the source of the money should be ascertained.

Nothing out of place: but wait, is this the new story to keep us busy for the week and forget the fvck ups of this government like the budget anomalies and so on?

Lai Mohammed is indeed a genius: Joseph Goebels got nothing on him....

These are words from the defense put up by Olisa Metuh in court. And you're calling this a Goverbmenr manufactured story?

Are you insane? How can you pretend to be a half witted illiterate just because of partisan politics?

I weep for the community that wasted money educating you.

LOL

Stopped reading at 'Shehu Sani'. This fellow is just a rabble rousing demagogue.

benpedro:
Nonsense..3 days unlimited data for #1,000?when people gets unlimited data here for 30 days and for just #2,500 equivalent or less.Well,at least they are better than MTN

Not everyone is interested in stealing or gaming the system

For the first time in YEARS, the DSS is being used to fight terrorism instead of a tool to fight political opponents. You can see the result.

jmichlins:
I do not think you are telling the truth maybe you are a marketer who wants to remind us on the dangers of trying these super oems that want to take your beloved company out of business. Mi5 is still a new product with few people been able to get it and it also comes with gorilla glass 3 making it cracking cause of a fall highly impossible or else you deliberately put it to drop test. Get me a picture or you know the rest

Please, don't be stupid.

I have never understood this fascination you guys have with the myth that Gorilla Glass is unbreakable. If it falls and hits a corner of a table, it WILL crack.

Corning has never claimed their Gorilla Glass phones are unbreakable.

Demmzy15:
Suicide is prohibited in Islam so whatever you wrote up is rubbish. Please show me one verse from the bible that prohibits suicide?! Just one!

“You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13), and suicide is murdering oneself.

Not sure why you're bringing the Bible into this, you thrice accursed fellow.

Elxandre:
Bro, please hope how much does MTN Hynet cost?
I'm curious.

22k per month.

I did them when smile, spectranet and swift messed me up. Hoping for something cheaper.

Who are these idiots?!

What is Buhari supposed to do? The case is already in court and there is no crime in owning offshore assets or exploring loopholes to avoid taxes.

Some people just criticize for no just reason.

eraly:
How tru is dis? Wia is d network name? Wia is ur source? Wia is .....?

LOL, is it this 55Mbps that you're doubting?

Ntel is promising 230Mbps!
