All the bolded is why I told u we are not doing probabilities or projecting ....all your thesis is using assumptions....

If you are measuring actual performance...you calculate based on existing data...no ifs...no assumptions...
So on what factual basis did you then first dream of a 5 man line up and then conclude that Imisi has outperformed Laycon under similar circumstances?

You've said it all. Nothing else to add.
Actually I beg to differ. The best way I can illustrate this is with football since you follow the sport.

It's like saying Arsenal who came second with 89 points in EPL 2024 season did better than Leicester city who won the league in 2016 with only 80 points.

You can only compare with what's in front of you at the time.

Lockdown season had the highest engagement numbers ever in bbn history, but generally people regard pepperdem and perhaps now this 10/10 season as the most interesting ever.

U can't remove them na..

They are all included in the race...removing them is like assuming they were evicted in a different voting week..which isnt so...we are not calcating probabilties neither are we doing projections ...we are evlauating existing data in its present form.. u need cane o ...loool
Check my last response to you. Your statement about 5 man line up is also a projection which you cannot arrive at without projecting that 4 of the current final contestants would be removed to get a 5 man line up.

I need kudos instead lol

Bro, I get you but that's a layman's assumption or guesswork.
Nah, it's logic.

scondy:
What kind of calculation are you doing...looool...u obviously don't know a thing about statistics...lool

We r not doing probabilities...we are dealing with outcomes...5 man line up...9 man line up...

U can't combine 4 from the 9man line up to reduce it to 5 na..uncle ..loool
You still don't get it Ma'am. This is not probability.

You already have the actual numbers for Imisi's eight competitors in a 9 man line up- so this is not guess work.

Question is if the line up were reduced to 5, what would have been Imisi's highest possible percentage?

Since there are no additional external variables, the logic is that in a 5 man line up, the 6th to 9th contestants would have been evicted before the final.

Since the 2nd (Dede) to 5th (Kola) contestant would still be on the final line up, it is logical to conclude that their voting percentages would not change from what it is now. So that's constant.

Now assuming generously that all the actual votes of the 6th to 9th contestant were to go to Imisi that's 12% of existing total votes in total (since we now know the actual numbers in hindsight)

If their voters all vote for Imisi, then she gets additional 12% to the 42%, making her attain 56% at the.maximum in a 5 man final line up.

This is the logic and its completely accurate.

Too simplistic, the variables are different.
The variables are the contestants and they are all represented in the 9 man line up. Remove the ones that would have been evicted to make a 5 man line up and add them to Imisi's numbers to get the ceiling of her voting percentage. In reality, her actual numbers would be lower than that in a 5 man line up.

Laycon faced 5 people and Ìmísí faced 8 people and got 42%. Yes, Ìmísí has broken Laycon's record
Wrong. Check my response to Scondy.

Imisi's highest in a 5 man line up would have been 56% if all the votes of the 6th to 9th contestants went to her.

carammel:
If this was a five man poll, Imisi may have gotten a 70%.. 😀😀
Wrong. Add the percentages from 6th Jason Jae to the last person to Imisi's 42%, the highest she can get in a 5 man line up is 56% which is a stretch.

scondy:
I am not getting it wrong...except u want to say total votes during lock down surpasses that of this season...but them we don't have the figures of both seasons..

And even statistically, that wouldn't be a fair comparison..because they are diferent reasons why the number of votes may differe per season....reason why the % will be a better way to compare...60% out of 5 ...and 42% out of 9...its not rocket science uncle...
No she didn't beat Laycons record.

To confirm, let's assume all the votes of the 6th (Jason J) to 9th contestant (Kaybobo) are for Imisi (which is even an exaggeration). That's 12% additional votes for Imisi.

Add 12% to Imisi's 42%, you'd have 56% for her in a 5 man line up.

56% is the best she can get and that's not possible cos all the other 4 contestants votes cannot go to Imisi in reality.

Laycon remains the Goat.

.. comfort zone ..

Just imagine..

Aren't players like Messi suppose to adapt faster ..

Didn't Ronaldo play outside his comfort zone

Didn't mbappe play outside his comfort zone ..


Lol .. this is just hilarious...


The other guy was mocking Ronaldo for winning the golden boot back to back even though he hasn't won a major trophy for the new club ..

The question here is what has Messi achieved for both the club and himself since leaving Barca..

You dey talk comfort zone .. if player like Messi cannot adapt outside his comfort zone which player is now suppose to..

Oga try something else , this comfort zone na rubbish talk..
The way you guys interpet facts dey muzz person walahi.

Yes Messi scored only 6 Ligue 1 goals in his first season which was a huge drop off from his usual standards, but does it erase the fact that he made it up by banging 21 goals with 42 total goal contributions in his second season in same league? Obviously not!

Why are you ignoring his second season success in France on the back of which, in combination with the World cup win, he won the ballon dor?

You guys talk as if your same Pendu did not flop in his second season of return to the EPL. [/b] I mean Ronaldo had a measly ONE EPL goal in the entire first half of 2022/2023 season before he was disgraced out of England and shipped off to Saudi. [b] Looking at it now, this is even worse than Messi's 6 goal league tally.

Why are we not focusing on that? Because it's irrelevant over a career span of mostly ups and few downs which happens to any great player.

Ronaldo de lima scored a total sum of 4 goals in 2005/2006 season in Spain and 2 goals in 07/08 in Serie A.

The point is Messi has had successful stints in Spain, Argentina, France (22/23 season) and the US over his career. These are facts that cannot be argued with. A single 11 goal blip of a season cannot brush off this unparalleled success. After all which great player has never had a dip in their careers.

Shuo!

surgical:
how will the bank distinguish that just like the income of the ashawo, its like you do not understand
Calm down and learn. Banks are not empowered by law to deduct taxes on customers accounts (except for withholding taxes on interest income you earn from them) . Only FIRS/State boards of internal revenue can impose taxes on your 'income'.

And the way the process works is that if, for example, you have inflows of 5million naira in a year in your account and the tax man becomes aware of this, you may get a letter from the tax authority assessing the entire or part of the 5million to tax.

But this doesnt mean you will automatically pay the tax assessment on the 5m. You would then respond formally to the same tax authority explaining why the 5m should not be taxed. They will give you the chance to explain yourself and if you can prove that some of the bank inflows are not income to you e.g loan or Ajo, they will adjust their calculations to only the part that is income which you will then go ahead to pay.

This is how the process works. No bank will start calculating tax for you.

Arostar2023:
And I say it's absolute nonsense. How can you tax a cashflow you have no idea of it's origin and purpose. Other people dey tax really income from services rendered or products sold. Una own na to blindly tax any inflow into people's bank account. Tomorrow if people revolts at una thoughtless policies they will be tagged unpatriotic.
People are not even reading the tax laws. No where in there does it impose tax on cashflows or bank accounts.

If you have inflows that are not income such as borrowings, refunds, passthroughs etc, they are not taxable. Don't understand why peeps are whipping up what's not over this issue.

Na so them de run am from January to October. Na my wife account them de send the money when month end. From there she go send the 100k give each of the three person wey go collect that month.
As I see this tax law I don tell am make e stop. Because once total money wey enter your account pass 800k in a single year govt go collect their tax.
Lol, you are just worrying yourself for nothing. The new tax laws do not state that bank inflows will be taxed. Only inflows that are income to your wife will come under risk of tax.

So let your wife do her collections in peace

The girl is obviously exceptional. But have you considered that her school is likely located in the South East? Which would mean a South easterner would most probably win the prize for Yoruba in any case.

I know Igbo and Yoruba are subjects offered in secondary schools nationwide under WAEC curriculum.

Dear Nairalanders,


This issue has been giving me problem... I earned 600k and I give my wife 35k for the month. We have 3 kids and I am sure that 35k is okay for the month for the 5 of us... She will buy foodstuff and any other things she needs.

I am thinking of divorcing her.... Please advise me as I am really thinking of going for another woman.
Bro is this a joke?? What exactly is the issue as I see no correlation between the 35k and your intention to divorce your wife.

By the way, why are you starving your family?
TravelRe: Elderly Passenger Deplaned For Refusing To Comply With Instructions by ThierryJay: 11:17am On Aug 28, 2025
oz4real83:
that is where the problem lies, some seats especially those by the door should be for certain categories, I personally dislike being moved to another seat after I had settled into my assigned seat. Even if the seat is bad, I won't find any problem with it as long as it was assigned to me during booking. But being moved, it will only be to business class for it to be acceptable or to somebody with greater need cheesy
I agree. Wouldn't also argue if I was being moved to a better seat lol. But then that emergency seat compliance is a non-negotiable rule due to the high safety risk so the passenger really doesn't have a choice.

Ni stated reason in this article why he have to change seat that was originally assigned to him by same establishment.
People that seat by the exit door in airplanes must be physically strong in order to be able to lift the door quickly in case of emergency (the door is quite heavy).

If an old man is seated there, he denies the other passengers the chances of quick escape in emergency situations.

why assign a seat by the door to someone that doesn't possess all these qualities as stipulated by the law? The man by age already is disqualified, why was he still assigned to that seat?
He could have selected it himself during the online check in process. As long as the seat is available, anyone can select it during online check in.
