I compared the weapons systems and available millitary manpower between Nigeria and South Africa. Besides the purchasing power and Defence budget, I don't see how RSA is being rated above Nigeria.

In time of war or as conditions necessitate, that defence budget can drastically increase. Even within that fiscal year.

tejuomole: On 9th of December 2012 i received a mail from Chibuzor Eze [i]biz4naija@gmail.com, that he is giving away some items as Christmas gift to his subscribers. Among the Items were Iphones, used laptops and UK used Ipad. he demanded for N30,000.00 for the used Ipad.I followed the link biz4naija.info/giveaway, saw the items and then called him on His phone number 08123412784 and he confirmed to me that he is not a scam. so I immediately transferred N30,000.00 into his GTB account no.0122264338 online. Since then he has not sent the items as promised and has refused picking my calls, all effort to retrieve my money has not yielded any positive result. I just decided to carry out a check on him online today when i stumbled on a thread in Nairaland revealing that he is a real scam. I am appealing to members of this forum to help me in whatever way you can to recover my money. attached is the online confirmation of my payment into His account.

luluosas: Yeah! Techno is a Chinese product but not necessarily a cheap bad product. After all, the likes of Samsung, Apple and others manufacture their phones hard-wares in China.

Toelu: you don't need an app to take screenshots..

Press the home button and the power button together and you should hear a sound of a screenshot being taken. The screen will flash and you should see a text that shows it has been captured and saved... simple
