@ ericuzor, God bless your bright mind and may he continue to equip you more with better visions and intellect. Its a pity many so-called youths of today don't even know diddly-squat about the history of their country let alone their family history. Well done, I knew this all along and I know any attempt to smuggle this demonic bill into our constitution will bring Nigeria to her end.
Christianity Etc › Re: Can You Be A Christian And Not Go To Church? by tomakint: 2:05pm On May 08, 2016
sammyomal:
From my own personal pespective, i dont think its possible.
Now being a Christian means you are christlike and born again,you are now part of the brethren and
The bible also enjoins us not to forsake the assembly of the brethren.
Also remember the psalmist once said i am glad when they say we should go into the house of the Lord.
So once someone profess to be a christian,there is that inward push in you that makes you see fellowshiping with the brethren as a must.
You lost me completely does that mean "Church" is the only place you can meet "assembly of the brethren"?

Technology Market › Re: World's Smallest Power Inverter by tomakint: 8:25pm On May 07, 2016
feflo:
Questions 1 & 2 are basically thesame, almost all inverter users in Nigeria did not consider the use of inverter when sizing their generator needs. What this means is that our generators are smaller than what an inverter requires to power the charging. If a generator is well sized and its capacity is big enough, there is no way it will not adequately power the charging requirements of the Inverter and even make the inverter charge better than the grid supply.
Another thing is that most generators in Nigeria just have bogus numbers written on them, a generator that has 3500 written on it may not even be up to 1.5kva in actual capacity. Inverter suppliers also contribute to this, they tell customers all sort of nonsense just to sell their product. A potential customer told me that one inverter marketer told him that a 2.5kva generator can power the charging requirements of a 7.5kva inverter.
Using generator to charge cannot damage the batteries as long as the generator is big enough to carter for the charging requirements of the Inverter.
Many Thanks
You are doing good pal, will patronize you soon....I hope you can supply someone in Abuja too. I appreciate the safety tips and advice you offer free of charge.

Penalty if convicted
If eventually found guilty, the Code of Conduct Tribunal is empowered by the paragraph 18 (1)(2), Part 1 of the fifth schedule to the Constitution to remove Mr. Saraki from the National Assembly; bar him from holding any public office for a period not exceeding 10 years; and/or confiscate his properties determined as ones acquired in abuse or corruption of office.


To those who say the CCT is not empowered to remove Saraki from office if convicted, I hope somebody somewhere is reading this.....
Politics › More Nigerians Want Saraki To Resign Over Corruption Trial - Poll! by tomakint(op): 7:57pm On May 07, 2016
More Nigerians want Nigeria’s embattled senate president, Bukola Saraki, to step down from office as he faces corruption trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, a poll conducted by PREMIUM TIMES has shown.

The poll, sampling public opinion on whether Mr. Saraki should resign in view of his trial, ran on the newspapers’ site for two weeks ending May 5. It showed significant public support for Mr. Saraki’s resignation.

The poll had five structured answers from which a total of 5,454 respondents chose.
A total of 3,624 respondents, representing 66 per cent, chose “Yes, he is a corrupt person”, implying the senate president is corrupt and should stand down.

Another 652, representing 12 percent, also wanted Mr. Saraki to resign, choosing “yes, he does not represent APC change agenda”.
In sum, either because “he is a corrupt person” or “he does not represent APC change agenda”, 4,276 respondents, 78 per cent, voted that Mr. Saraki should resign.

Altogether, 647 respondents, representing 12 per cent, voted “No, his travails are just political vendetta”, while 315, representing six per cent, said the Senate President should not resign. The last group voted “No, he is innocent of all charges unless proven otherwise in court”.
Therefore, 962 respondents, 17.6 per cent, elected to stand with Mr. Saraki on his vow to stay in office unless he is ultimately convicted.
Foramfera
The remaining 223 respondents, or four per cent, said “I don’t care” whether Mr. Saraki resigns.

The Trial
Mr. Saraki, in charge number ABT/01/15 dated September 11, 2015 and filed before the Code of Conduct Tribunal, is accused of offences ranging from anticipatory declaration of assets to making false declaration of assets in forms he filed before the Code of Conduct Bureau while he was governor of Kwara state.
The senate president is also accused of failing to declare some assets he acquired while in office as governor.
Mr. Saraki is also accused of operating foreign accounts while being a public officer.
On April 18, three new corruption charges were added to the initial 13-counts.
Mr. Saraki denies wrongdoing, and pleaded “not guilty” to the amended charges.
The prosecution has called one witness, Michael Wetkas, from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, to detail how Mr. Saraki allegedly looted Kwara State and brazenly converted state’s funds to personal use.
Mr. Saraki is yet to begin his defence.

Penalty if convicted
If eventually found guilty, the Code of Conduct Tribunal is empowered by the paragraph 18 (1)(2), Part 1 of the fifth schedule to the Constitution to remove Mr. Saraki from the National Assembly; bar him from holding any public office for a period not exceeding 10 years; and/or confiscate his properties determined as ones acquired in abuse or corruption of office.
Mr. Saraki has repeatedly accused the chairman of the Tribunal, Danladi Umar, of bias, expressing “big fear” he may not get justice from Mr. Umar.
He has filed a motion in the CCT asking Mr. Umar to disqualify himself from his trial. The motion was dismissed prompting him to seek relief of the Appeal Court to upturn the chairman’s ruling.
The senate president also alleges that his trial is politically motivated, having emerged Senate President in defiance of the position of his party, All Progressives Congress, which favoured Ahmed Lawan from Yobe State for the position.


Mr. Saraki has also subtly accused former Lagos Governor, Bola Tinubu, of masterminding his travails, as retaliation for his opposition to Mr. Tinubu’s ambition to contest as Muhammadu Buhari’s running mate in the last presidential poll.

I won’t resign
Mr. Saraki has since vowed not to resign. He told his colleagues in 2015 to “stand with me to defend the National Assembly!”
The Senate, last month, during a session led by Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, while his boss was attending trail at CCT, resolved to support its embattled President “to the end, except he is convicted”.

Shymm3x:
You can't blame them, they just hear money and start counting. Artist have managers, and apart from the folks they employ - they also spend a lot of money on logistics and maintaining the lifestyles. Once you factor all that in, you'd see that the overwhelming majority of them don't have that much money and everything is about selling a lifestyle to their fans.

As for the blogger, they don't know what traffic is and how bloggers earn money from adsense. Even as big as NL is, I don't think it gets up to 20,000 unique visitors daily. It's just mostly the same people clicking multiple times and that's not how web traffic works. And once the traffic is more than what ya server can handle, ya website would crash. Then when you start living a certain lifestyle that cost a lot of money - it's just going to keep drinking whatever you're earning. So counting people's money is just stupid cos you'll never be able to get it correctly.

It's just like someone counting the amount you've earned in wages since you started working. You and I know that there's no way in hell you'll be worth a tenth of that money.

Shymm3x:
Lmao @ jobless folks counting other people's money. grin

The both of them put together aren't worth a tenth of the money put up there.

The touted traffic on that blog is hysterical. If she were to be getting that type of traffic, her blog would've crashed time ago. The template and the server she's using can't handle a tenth of that traffic. Even NL and its massive servers can't handle that type of traffic. Now imagine a basic website. Both of them aren't caking like that.

You lot need to get a job - you can't count the next person's money.

Kobe Bryant has made almost a billion dollars officially in his career from salary and endorsements, but he's not worth $80 million in his own personal wealth. Dr Dre sold Dre Beats for $3.2billion...and he didn't get more than $300 from the deal. So you can't always count people's money. Just enjoy the back and forth for comic relief and focus on ya lives. grin
I just love this dude no homo.....Shymm3x always on point....I don't know whats wrong with these kids calculating phantom sums of money for artistes who are just averagely rich...imagine a dude dashing wizkid $11.5 million net worth grin grin
