This happened in 2013? And Buhari's igp is now digging all the way back. Who said that the Fulani vengeful memory is not long.
Now they will close down the company forcing many people into unemployment. L[b]ater they will wonder why the economy is bad and people are not employed? [/b]

But later, people like YOU will wonder why this country isn't working and why corruption runs rampant.

Let's STOP supporting criminal acts on ethnic basis.

omonnakoda:
You did not answer my questions at all. I really do not know what you mean by robust? That is a nebulous word.

Funny but you said best advice was surgery + radiotherapy now it is leave alone. I don't know what qualifies you to offer BEST advice which by the way you change daily. Any responsible doctor will offer an OPINION with INFORMATION. Yes I agree that he should leave it alone but that is just my opinion.I cannot see on what basis you are offering best advice

'Robust' is an English word. There's substantial amount of information on Wikipedia on keloids and treatment methods.

The OP seems hell-bent on surgically removing the Keloid. I gave him advice I distilled from Wikipedia on the best option to prevent recurrence after surgery, with the expectation that a Medical doctor would provide the final word.

I also took pains to tell him to leave the Keloid alone.

Surgery option? Best advice to follow up with additional treatment (Radiotheraphy, from what I could glean) to prevent or minimize the risk of recurrence.

Recommended advice? Don't risk surgery.

This seems simple enough to follow.

I think if you put aside this undue belligerence and aim for comprehension, you'd be less susceptible to confusion.

omonnakoda:
Do you have any data on the success rates of your recommendation . How many surgeries are performed for every success story.
Do you have any data on relapse rates?
what is the risk of radiotherapy to the head?

Surprisingly, I did a bit of research first before posting. The Wikipedia entry on Keloids is quite robust.

Looking at his picture, best advice is for him to just leave it alone.

Don't ever try surgery alone.

Surgery + Radiotheraphy seems to be best option to reduce recurrence.

TO be honest, the Keloid's location doesn't seem that bad, and if your facial features are attractive enough, most ladies will overlook that.

Kabashin:
You are simply half smart. What ilicit funds are you talking about with an account that was just reactivated in August,2016.

You lack basic comprehension skills, and it worries me.

My point has been clear. What proof do you have that the account has been inactive until August 2016?

I called for Precious to provide proof, and for the EFCC to also disprove her claims.

In another other clime, this would have been considered a clear, reasonable position that straddles the middle ground. Instead, like a zombie, you swallow one side of the story that suits your alignment with corruption.


Also note that with the BVN policy in place, it is very likely that ALL accounts (active and inactive) linked to a BVN under investigation will be flagged by the EFCC. In that case, the bank will still summon the EFCC no matter when the account was activated.


If this is too difficult to process, I can translate into Pidgin English for you to boost your comprehension.

Abeg wetin concern Ohanaeze with Patience Jonathan?

Apparently you cannot release press statements or reports from ongoing trials without being accused of 'Media trial'. Na wa.

nwabobo:
Did you not read where he said he reported it to the Chief justice?

I wish crimes were reported to the police or EFCC, and not the CJN who has no power to prosecute.

Kabashin:
Shut the hell up. Then let the EFCC debunk this.

My dear illiterate, in my original post, I called on the EFCC to provide clarification. Is it my fault your comprehension skills are as mediocre as your IQ?

Kabashin:
In your miniscule brain, FFK and wife are no longer entitled to run bank accounts simply because they have pending cases in court.

The EFCC does not freeze or flag accounts just for having cases in court. they work with the banks to flag or freeze accounts that are suspected to have received inflow from ill-gotten sources that are under investigation.
The bulk of your contribution here so far is to whine and complain about an agency doing their job.

At the very least, you're a supporter of corruption.

Zombie

SmartChoices:
may God fight evil in your life .... the way and manner EFCC is fighting corruption in Nigeria.... say a very big AMEN

Don't bother, crook. I'm perfectly capable of crafting and saying my own prayers without input from those allied to thieves.

Cheers, and I hope those crooks you defend so vigorously will throw you some money once in a while.

Kabashin:
Stop been a consistent zombie. Didn't you read the part she said she just reactivated the account in August 16, 2016.

Must you all be this silly supporting institutional lies and oppression. Smh.

Must you be so silly, accepting the word of Precious at face value without any doubts?

Where is the 'oppression' there? EFCC doing their jobs in monitoring a flagged account? Or access Bank following anti-corruption laws?

You supporters of corruption are desperate to ruin Nigeria. Shame on you, crook!

Phonefanatic:
If someone that named his dog buhari and bloggers can be arrested over nothing what makes you believe Efcc and DSS?

The account was used by her from 2005 till 2012 when it was abandoned and went dormant. It was not utilised or activated again until August 2016


So when was this so called investigation started? In 2012 or when the account was reactivated in August 2016?

The 'naming dog Buhari' case has been trashed out repeatedly here. He was arrested for incitement, not 'nothing'.
More importantly, he was NOT arrested by the EFCC or DSS...and the DSS is not a party to this current FFK/EFCC wahala.

Why are you trying to throw up red herrings?

I wonder why you accept the word of FFK's lady so readily as gospel truth?

My point is clear. there needs to be more clarity from both parties. It is not the EFCC's role to disclose personal bank info of a citizen, but it may be apt in this case to disclose the date when the 2.4m balance existed...and to tackle the suggestions that the account remained dormant until just August 2016.

I read the EFCC statement again. It never claimed that the balance was N2.4 million at the time of the arrest.

Here's the exact wording below

“The said account, which had a balance of N 2,307,712.82 was flagged following investigation into the PDP Joint Trust fund when the Commission traced N1.1billion to the Zenith Bank account of Fani-Kayode.

It can EASILY be argued that the EFCC spokesman was referring to the balance of the account when it was flagged, and the wording (use of the past tense 'had', and the statement insinuating that this was as at when traced by the EFCC) does support this.


Final step is for Precious to release the entire account info...and of course for the EFCC to show that the account was only frozen last friday or has not been dormant for long.

saint047:
no body is supporting corruption here. Please get your facts right

I have my facts right.

YOU are the one speaking up for lawlessness and impunity, where a sitting Governor is illegally shutting down a bank, to punish them for following Nigeria's corruption laws.

Your shameless and disgraceful support for corruption is noted.

saint047:
Obscurity is the refuge of the incompetent.

On whose orders were they acting on?

You must be myopic I guess

The bank did the right thing to contact the EFCC. Why are you people so determined in your support for corruption?

naphcoco:
See what politics have done to our "Common Sense" as a country? FFK and his family have the right to own a bank account like any other Nigerian.
FFK is a lawyer by profession, one-time aviation minister, worked as a spokesperson to GEJ, apparently earned a legitimate living for himself and his family. All this times he was paid salaries and gratuities, he also had savings. Moreso, he is privileged as one born into a wealthy family. If he is believed or alleged to had been involved in any financial misconduct, he should be investigated and prosecuted accordingly.
Placing a "No Debit Order" on account jointly operated with his wife, thereby making the wife look like a common criminal is uncalled-for and absurd.
The fact is, how much is in this account in question? #2.3m. That's $7,314 in official market & $5,072 in parallel(black)market. In this Nigeria, there are people that earn between #2-7m per month, and even more.
If PMB's wife could own a bag worth #40m, how many of those bags are in her closet? How much will her jewelries worth, clothes and shoes? When we post comments, let's endeavor to be objective and reasonable. Politics shouldn't always becloud our sense of reasoning and judgment.
As far as this war against corruption is not reflecting positively on the common man and Nigerians at large, then, its a waste of time, resources and a scam. Nothing short of PMB's personal wars and vendettas against his enemies not just in polity.
Nigerians ought to hold this present government accountable on many grounds. Its a failed and irresponsible government whichever way any reasonable entity will view it.

Why will you casually let your village people make an im'becile out of you?

The account in question has been flagged. All accounts linked to FFK's BVN have been flagged. Attempted withdrawal from a flagged account will lead to EFCC / police investigation.

That is common sense, which you so obviously lack. This has NOTHING to do with whether FFK is an affluent man or not.

I wish you folks would STOP defending corrupt people.

HandsomeKing:
The northerners wan even take style pass indigents.. How can the Commission be true to her mission and vision while Northerners that sit on her board are almost more that all Niger Delta Reps put together.. standing by to grab the juiciest projects with power and get them paid for without executing them!

You need to see an optometrist ASAP.

Then after that, see Prophet TB Joshua for deliverance from imbecility.

LastMumu:
Which privacy? You no read am say na Ighalo share the picture himself.
I no just understand how man go share picture when him dey cry.

If you lived in Edo state for a while, you'd understand.

Public mourning is an art form.

IPOB will say any nonsense just to blast Buhari.

Clueless fellows.

What's the back story to this? Why are people dumping trash on the road in the first place ?

amagunnerfan:
Spectranet own don finish. I can't wait for them to call me and be asking their rubbish "when will you subscribe" question.

Thank GOD I dished the idiotas for etisalat.

My broda, I have BEGGED, CAJOLED AND ThREATENED them to stop calling me. When I was their customer, they were extremely lousy. Now I don comot, they keep bugging my life.

I've had to block all their numbers. Truecaller helps me identify the others.

You can twist it all you want but Fulani Herdsmen (not militants) are the fourth most deadly terrorist group.

http://africansuntimes.com/2016/05/fulani-herdsmen-the-fourth-deadliest-terrorist-group-in-the-world/
https://venturesafrica.com/terror-groups-one-two-many-nigerian-fulani-herdsmen-are-one-of-five-deadliest-terror-groups-in-the-world/

We know Buhari is sympathetic to this terrorist group known as Fulani Herdsmen but we wont allow rabble-rousers like yourself twist the narrative to suit your evil aim.

Global Terrorist Index (GTI) that these nigerian news journalists are quoting called them 'fulani militants' when they made that statement on their deadliness.

Here, have a look yourself. http://static.visionofhumanity.org/sites/default/files/2015%20Global%20Terrorism%20Index%20Report.pdf

Your problem is your rank ignorance and your pride prevents you from seeing this and humbly seeking help.

I expected better from someone like you who has been educated. Staking a claim based on headlines instead of reading the actual source.

You were previously a source of amusement, but now you just elicit feelings of strong disappointment. Shame.

Bump!

Bump!

joeprince23:
That sham of an election should not stand,sometimes i feel edo is not even a true niger-delta state, no dogedness of igbos and ijos(ND) in edolites. Thats why i trust my rivers state,we sabi politics and if u want trouble we go give you double

No. Una sabi thuggery and electoral violence. That's why in every single election in your state, blood has to be spilled.

Whether na APC or PDP you support, one thing is paramount...Not a single person was killed or maimed in Edo State in the just concluded elections.

id911:
We don't need Edo in Niger Delta, we donate them to Afonja.

I agree that Edo State is a clear exception since nobody there spends their days wailing about marginalization

Flets:
Again downplaying the threat of one of the most dangerous terrorist groups in the globe. That's the height of desperation to sound politically correct.

If I may ask.... under whose arm protection are the illegal refiners? You've vaguely used that phrase more than once that its almost sounding true to you.

For your info, the illegal refiners are down the food chain and without any obvious arm protection. They are merely creek miscreants refining and selling condensate. The only ones that could be considered under some form of arm protection are the major crude bunkerers who also sell crude to the refiners.

Enough of your uninformed rants.

Speaking of 'uininformed'...

'Condensate' is not one of the products of local refining of crude oil. The guys in the creek refine out gasoline and diesel, discarding much of the heavier by-products and waste water in the waterways.

As the name implies, 'Condensate' is low density liquid that condenses out of gas.

Fulani militants (who can also be herdsmen) are described as terrorists, NOT 'Fulani herdsmen'. Unless you're accusing Southern beef eaters of supporting terrorism

To explain it to you in simple terms

1) All Fulani militants are terrorists
2) Some Fulani militants are herdsmen
3) Not all herdsmen are terrorists.

If this doesn't sink in, you cannot be helped.

Flets:
Stop playing to the gallery my friend. .

Basic common sense cannot be seen as 'playing to the gallery'.

Flets:
Fulani herdsmen have been identified as the 4th most deadly terrorist organisation in the globe and here you are downplaying their potency and justifying government's inaction towards a terrorist group.

Why are you clowns always eager to shift the goalposts so shamelessly?
Nobody here said anything about 'Government inaction'. I gave cogent point why the Nigerian Airforce is of limited effectiveness in tackling the menace of some belligerent armed fulani herdsmen. Unless, of course, you still insist ALL herdsmen are terrorists and that the airforce adopts a policy of bombing and strafing all herds of cattle they spot.

Flets:
What do you mean by being under armed protection? Are the illegal refiners armed or unarmed? Why play ostrich?

'under armed protection' is essentially the same as being armed.
Your misuse of the 'playing ostrich' phrase is noted...thanks for adding levity to this discussion, even though it is at your expense.

This is where funds are allocated, in a recession?

Facepalm.

Finest001:
Oga there are small refinery and mobile refinery been used in some advanced countries this many experts have adviced our government to look into as its not money consuming and license could be given to individuals who are interested. Instead the government and the thieves who are benefiting from the situation would not want that.

Has any individual - to your knowledge - approached the FG via NNPC/DPR to request for license for modular refineries and have been refused?

Why are you even moving the goalposts? Are the people in the creeks using safe, environmentally friendly refineries? Have you run economics on the small scale refinery process to know if it is economically viable?

These guys in the creeks are using stolen, free oil. What makes you think their business will remain viable if they have to buy better equipment and then purchase oil from the FG at $40 per barrel?

Flets:
Kindly apply that logic to fulani herdsmen. Tell us how the airforce is helping to deal with them.

Don't be ridiculous.
Fulani herdsmen bring cattle from the North to sell in the South. While there are bad eggs among them, there are undoubtedly lots of them who do no wrong and just move their cattle.
How is the airforce supposed to act against the herdsmen? Strafe and bomb all cattle they see? Blow up all herds of cattle?

Some Fulani herdsmen are murderers and security threats. Those cannot be distinguished from the air. ALL Illegal refinery operators are criminals perpetrating a terrible economic and environmental crime against Nigeria. Those can easily be spotted from the air and routed.

Surely, even you can see the difference.

Flets:
As a matter of fact, the fulani herdsmen are the armed ones. The illegal refiners aint armed unless you mistake them for militants

The illegal refiners are 100% under armed militant protection. Their sponsors make millions of dollars from their actions.

Flets:
I am against illegal activities but this might just be ethnic cleansing.

Otherwise same force should have been used on fulani herdsmen

Sometimes it is better to keep quiet and let others assume your silence masks great wisdom, than to talk and say something as crazy as this.

Do you even know what 'Ethnic cleansing' is?

An armed, dangerous cartel is stealing oil and gas resources that belongs to Nigeria and should belong to your children (and also devastating the environment in the Niger Delta)...and you're resisting Govt attempts to deal with them. Incredible

razortruth:
What I don't understand is how two or three uneducated and village boys can refine oil in the bush but the federal government with all its might and power CAN'T refine same oil for the citizens of Nigeria. Even the Biafra during that unfortunate war with Nigeria, refined both aviation and domestic oil in the bush. Is Nigeria cursed with bad leadership or what?

I see this opinion expressed all too often, and it's hilarious.

There's is a difference between small scale, highly inefficient and highly pollutive refining and large scale, environmentally friendly and modern refining.

This is like asking why Nigeria cannot put an astronaut on the moon because people make 'rocket' fireworks in Aba.

We all know Blackberry already has two Android phones in the market, the Priv and DTEK50, the Priv has all the specs needed for a successful Android phone but its way too expensive for the average budget, the DTEK60 is an upgrade to the DTEK50, its more pocket friendly compared to the start off price of the Priv and its got all the needed attributes to win a bout in bragging rights among the very top phones. Its a beautiful beast! Pardon my use of that oxymoron

SPECS:
-OS - Android OS, v6.0 (Marshmallow)
-Chipset - Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 820
-CPU - Quad-core (2x2.15 GHz Kryo & 2x1.6 GHz Kryo)
-32 GB ROM, 4 GB RAM
-Camera - 21 MP, f/2.0, phase detection autofocus, dual-LED (dual tone) flash
Secondary Camera - 8 MP, f/2.2, 1080p
Video - 2160p@30fps
-Scratch-resistant glass, oleophobic coating
-Fingerprint sensor
-Li-Ion 3000 mAh battery

Blackberry has the best phone security in the market and added with specs like these above i see this phone becoming a favourite. And that camera is something else special, when Blackberry offers a 21 MP camera you know what that means, even the likes of the old Bold 9790 with a 5 MP has a digital zoom picture quality which plenty high end phones lack.

SOURCE- GSMARENA

Nothing stands out about this phone. About the same.specs as flagships that have been out since March/ April.

The cameras in the Bold series were terrible. You're touting 'digital zoom' as a feature. Something all phones have had since 2009. Is this a joke?
