Faceless forums make it easy for you to talk and for that I forgive your ignorance.
How much is the Samsung that you own....Mtchewww

Rubbish talk. Being objective makes it easy for everyone (including you) to use your brain to know that a company that wishes to deface another does NOT need to BLOW IT OUT BLUNTLY.

TECNO has STOLEN the entire show!!! Period.
You know nothing about technology business.
This is my 11th year importing the highest quality phones since the advent of Nokia 3310 of old.
So take the back seat, son. Go and play with sand

What does importing cheap China phones have to do with anything?
What 'whole show' has Tecno stolen when the entire annual sales of Tecno in Nigeria can be covered by Xiaomi in 2 weeks in China? You think the Nigerian market is what is making Samsung have sleepless nights ?

All these clueless people that know nothing. So Tecno is the 'highest quality ' now abi? Technology guru that is happy with the possibility of his data being stolen.

Dey dia dey masquerade as 'tech guru' as if we don't have access to your post history. Just thank God that Tecno has made affordable phones for you.

You're still yet to explain how you think Samsung bought over the independent Lookout Security, and why they're going after relatively small fry like Tecno instead of massive competition like Xiaomi, Meizu and Huawei.

ibedun:
In every society including UK, USA and most other places (Igboland,Yorubaland, Hausaland etc.) There are unwritten rules.

Let a non English person come out and say they want to run for a sensitive office in the UK, they will be reminded where they come from. Trust me.

An 'unwritten rule' doesn't mean it's illegal.

10 years ago, people would have been saying there's an unwritten rule preventing a black man from becoming the President of the US.

Promking:


OP, so if you didnt put tecno in all CAPS, you wont pass ur message

and,
which day did tecno become a clone device??

Also
You specified others but could not for tecno.....why the hating nau

finally,
and you didnt mention any tecno device here ....shame on you


#teamTecno jaare

That's exactly how the source article is worded.

Anyway, why do I care? It's clear some of you don't care if all your data and files are being funneled to a remote server somewhere as long as you get to play your cracked copies of Modern Combat

michaelbiz:
my dear people don't mind them jare
i smell the hand of Samsung here. And why am I not surprised?
Tecno has swept the market clean (TECNO IS VERY GOOD AND MORE AFFORDABLE)...and because Samsung couldn't make any head way this year, they are pushing malware-scare messages specifically to create "hate" for Tecno. Otherwise why do we have FAKE SAMSUNG and VARIOUS TECNO models in this stupid list?

Let me spell out their game plan from the above sef: buy only ORIGINAL Samsung and DONT BUY any model of TECNO at all.
Lobatan!!!
All those new Chinko phones were just included to make it look generalized but the real competitor is always the MAIN TARGET!
We know the drummer from the tune...shame on Samsung!

Kai, poverty is not good o!!

Lookout security is a highly reputable mobile security company that's used by nearly half of the Fortune 500 companies and is not affiliated to Samsung in any way
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookout_(company)

If this was an attempt from Samsung, they would have been targeting the players like Xiaomi and Huawei that are actually hurting them in the all-important Asian market, not the kobo-kobo Nigerian market

You've just been informed that your phone may likely be spying on you and sending your private data to malicious users. All you can think of is to justify your cheapness by manufacturing a hare-brained conspiracy theory in your head. Smh

chrisbaba1:
[size=17pt]Means my uncle Awotade, living in enugu since 1990 can claim to be from ezeagu local government and peaceably contest for governorship since he is a Nigerian anyway right?? Okay! [/size]

Of course he can. That's his right.
People in that area will just not vote for him. That's human nature.

I'm not sure where it was explicitly stated that only a Yoruba man born in Lagos can run for Lagos Governorship.

pashaun:
Another dumb black! A lot of blacks in Africa worship the white man and think Jesus is white. There are poor blacks that will do anything for money. Who the hell do you think is responsible for the crap that's happening in the world?

In Africa? 99% of the crap that happens there is caused by your fellow black man.

This self-denial is hilarious.

changes1:
again?

nawao...
Sahara reporters: Being the 1st to spread bad news about Nigeria since 1914....

So they should do like NTA and tell you all is well in Northern Nigeria?

Some people just LOVE being lied to.

How many times will these amateurish stories written by 'naijasinglegirl' hit the front page?

I think the FG has hit on a strategy here. Just mention 'America' as an excuse and red herring and see mumu-ish Nigerians falling over themselves to believe.

Bayswater:
Thank you. I was watching a documentary about the same war where the mI-25 series of gunships were deployed by Russia and how America did everything to sabotage Russia. I just opened my mouth in disbelief. The war was almost over when America started supplying the mujahideens with anti craft missiles that can bring down the copters. That marked a massive change in the war, Russia lost thousands of soldiers in a war they have almost won and that actually marked the beginning of the rise of Osama Ibn Ladin. America created and nurtured Osama and Taliban, they only had their comeuppance when he attacked them.

You mean like how the Russians covertly supplied aid, training and arms to the Vietcong during the Vietnam war? Or to the North Koreans during the Korean war?

There's a reason why it was called the 'Cold War'. You naive children seem to know nothing of history. Shame.

And this is part of the crappy dividends of this administration. Local production still not hitting 1% of demand and yet importation dropping by 20%.
People being driven further below the poverty line, import duty hikes preventing people from owning newer, more modern vehicles that are more fuel efficient, pollute less and are safer. As a result, more Nigerians are using old, decrepit and less safe vehicles on the road.

Despite this, we still get the same stories and chest beating, largely revolving around Innoson. Where are the Nissan cars we were promised? All we get are PR pieces. Why has none of the pricing details been released?

Almost makes me want to weep that the journalist is talking about a single tank.

Past Nigerian leaders have crippled this army so terribly. We should be talking about at least 10 main battle tanks and a force of 15 assault helicopters. Boko Haram would have been routed long since.

The garden variety RPGs and Molotov Cocktails Boko Haram employs against our thin-hulled APCs are useless against sturdy MBTs. Sov-Bloc Main battle tanks like the T-72 are usually MUCH cheaper than tanks you'll source elsewhere, so no point pointing finger at the Americans.

I can understand guerilla and suicide warfare, but it's inconceivable that BH should ever be allowed to win a pitched battle in the open against the Nigerian Army.

shizzleStar:
Granted thats what they are, but you cannot feign ignorance of the fact that virtually everything is being politicized in nigeria for political, sectional or tribal reasons. Classic example former COAS, Gen. Ihejirika was accused of being a boko haram sponsor, thesame man under whose reign boko haram menacae reduced to a minimum.

We no longer look at issues with a clear mind, everything is now politicized along lines of party affiliations in this country and thats the sad truth.

Good day

That, fortunately enough, does not apply to me.

No interest in any political party at all, only interested in people who are determined to move this country forward.

shizzleStar:
Classic example former COAS, Gen. Ihejirika was accused of being a boko haram sponsor, thesame man under whose reign boko haram menacae reduced to a minimum.

I don't buy this narrative about Ihejirika, sorry. There's nothing concrete to show for his tenure. No permanent change in tactics, no evidence that issues of morale that have bedeviled the Nigerian Army were resolved, no evidence that Nigerian soldiers were given superior arms in the time he was in charge, no evidence that he ever purchased any helicopter gunships or assault helicopters.
I can't see the HARD EVIDENCE to support these claims.

To be frank, I find the accusations that Ihejirika has a hand in BH rather laughable. No sense in it at all. Still every bit as likely that the escalation in BH activities could just be tied to a change in tactics from bombings to an all out armed rebellion.

amaechionuh:
Be ready to strap ur body wit explosive and commit suicide where ur likes are gathered after 2015 elections or better still hug ur street transformer cos there's constant power this day, e go dry u wella.

Why should I 'commit suicide'?
i've already repeatedly said it that GEJ will likely win next year. I'm 99% convinced of it. That doesn't mean I have to like it, doesn't mean I have to toe the line of you compromised lapdogs. I will just continue making money to take care of my family as usual.

It's people like you I'm worried about. What will you do for money once 2015 comes around and your masters have no more need of your services? Will you take to begging or Armed robbery? These are the million dollar questions.

shizzleStar:
If he had lumped Boko haram, GEJ and PDP together, would you have called him a disgusting e-thug on nairaland?

Yes.

I have no patience for anyone that tries to tie Boko Haram to Politics. Such people are partly responsible for the slow response to BH, and I fully am convinced such people - even the ones on Nairaland! - have blood on their hands.

Check my post history. I have NEVER once claimed that Boko Haram is anything other than a fundamentalist terror group.

Nothing wrong with being paid to blow APC and PDP trumpets. Everything wrong with paid posters that deliberately lie, spread misinformation and attempt to turn logic on its head just to score political points. Such people are e-thugs and sycophants...it matters not if they are APC or PDP sponsored

tonychristopher:
SOYINKA IS A CONFUSED MAN AND HE IS FIGHTING RELEVANCE, I THOUGHT HE IS AN ATHEIST SO WHY CALLING BIBLICAL FIGURE NEBUCHADNEZZER


YOU CAN SEE THAT HE IS CONFUSED, HOW DID HE EVEN GET THAT NOBEL PRIZE?


IS IT BY WRITING THOSE PRIMARY SCHOOL PLAYS



WELL MY RESPECT FOR HIM IS NOW -45%

Nebuchadnezzar WAS a historical figure

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebuchadnezzar_II

Wait, you actually think it's only in the Old Testament (jewish histories) that there is information about the Babylonian and Persian empires of old?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!!

And you DARE call someone 'ignorant' when you yourself have proven yourself to be a d'unce?

Damn, can't believe you are that silly. And to think you are probably going around, calling yourself and 'educated person'.

menesheh:
why is it that the almighty office of mr President have been reduced to mere play ground by toutish politicians and even by a plenty award winning professor soyinka.


Soyinka suppose to be a core supporter of GEJ's rational and liberal behaviorism as an academician.

he should respect the respect bestowed on him nationally and internationally by abstaining from politics or by offering solutions to certain upheavals in the country.

is unbecoming of him making public statement instead as a stateman but as tout (barrow pusher or low grade layman)

Evil proliferates when good men do nothing.

It is a shame that someone like you that is educated can call an administration that has used soldiers, police and DSS to harrass and detain opposition politicians, attack peaceful protesters and seize and destroy newspapers a 'liberal' administration.

Not since the Abacha days have we seen an administration so eager to use security forces to muzzle opposition and deny tax paying Nigerians of their fundamental human rights.

Wole Soyinka is well within his rights to speak up, and only an addled mind will find fault in what he said.

amaechionuh:
Reading through some comments here, I discovered that most pple here no suck their mama breast well.

These men are employers of labour for Christ sake, these men pays salary to most of you here writing rubbish directly or indirectly. These men have helped our economy to grow and Mr President is saying thank you to all of them for providing employment for his people, why can't we appreciate good things for Christ sake?

Well, it is written "if there is no casting down, there won't be any lifting up"... Whom God have blessed, no BH/GMB/APC can curse.

Yeah, he couldn't say 'thank you' in 2012 when the elections were far away?

You have to 'thank' capitalists that are also Making money hand-over-fist from Nigeria?

Either you're a paid sycophant or you're ridiculously naive

Edit: I see with your lumping Boko Haram, GMB and APC together, you're just one of those disgusting e-thugs on Nairaland. I have wasted my time replying you.

A lot of people think that KSB lost because she ran against Lai Mohammed's son. That may be part of the reason, but another strong factor against her is her reckless promise to 'clear the streets of Ikeja of prostitutes'.


That's not a winning message for the (overwhelmingly male) delegates


Even if she ran against Baba Suwe, she would have still lost.

Firefire:


"The frog never runs in daylight for nothing."



The truth shall be known soonest, keep your cool. You can never trust those data center.


APC SECRETS UNFOLDING...

But that's the point. two raids, years of accusations of being behind boko haram etc.

And not a single damn secret has unfolded.

At some point, one has to point fingers at the accusers when all accusations keep failing.

I hope we won't hear new allegations of wife beating.

NoContract:
Google post humous

Why don't you do the same, buddy?

It's a posthumous release. She didn't release it herself.

Really lame title. How does a dead person 'release' a video?

espn:
if this is what u wish for islam..i wish d same for ur entire household.

Don't abuse. Report his post to the mods using the Report link. I just did.

And just to be clear before some Neanderthal attacks me, I'd rather such monies be used to beef up our universities. How many Universities in Nigeria offer courses in advanced astrophysics and rocket science?

The whole nation must move forward technologically, not the one you'll pack some phD holders to the UK or China to work on a satellite design team and then start beating your chest.

When final year students of OAU are able to make stuff like this and showcase it, then we've arrived.

govt....always promising, never delivering.

I wish the minister would devote time to show us what benefits we derived from the existing space satellite venture we're into, instead of making meaningless promises.

Alternatively, provide some details on the sophistication of the satellite to be designed and launched. High school kids in the US have been making mini satellites for a while, so this isn't nearly as ground-breaking as many of you think.

Dr sid's wife is not pretty

Prettier than you.

Nigga Raw!!

Still the only Naija rapper to rhyme 'rap game' with 'beans and plantain'

Always loved his music, though. Playing it in my car and learning some Igbo words. That his album that had 'My name' and 'Shake your body'

Smooyis:
Trials, stupid talk cannot destroy the one who relies on God's strenght. Misfortune is not a respecter of persons just like death. They do not require a formal invitation or make announcement before they occur. Job was tested as such but he came out stronger. So also TB Joshua will come out stronger of this. Just pitying those who are saying rubbish now. Be careful of what u say!

Lots of people are dead. Fathers, mothers, children...and all you and your fellow bootlickers can do is to try and turn it into 'the persecution of TB Joshua'.

There is no middle ground here. Anyone who believes this was a 'controlled demolition' does not deserve any certificates he may have earned. There's absolutely no evidence that there was any demolition, and the fact that no explosives fragments or bomb residue can be found at the site is a clear indication that no such demolition happened.

If there was even a 1% chance that the building was blown up, the place would have been swarming with SSS officers.

So basically,

No motive
No evidence

And yet all you blasphemers are so desperate to preserve the aura of invincibility around this flawed man that you come online to lie and mislead and deceive.

I'm not saying the OP is lying, but he is clearly recounting 3rd and 4th hand information (as someone earlier said) from people he met in the bush.
At times like this, people are always given to hyperbole.

I find it hard to believe that bloodthirsty BH folks will be obtaining phones from students and not killing them as usual. I bet some thugs took advantage of this crisis to become owners of iPhones and Blackberry phones

LOL. Some of you are really desperate for civil war.
