Phones › Glo's Unrepentantly Slow Internet by tomquest(op): 4:08am On Jun 19, 2016
GLO'S SLOWEST INTERNET


So after much hesitation yesterday, I can't explain the compulsion that led me into a Glo outlet to buy a sim, got it registered and activated. It was weekend, and with the much ado given to Glo's magnanimity in dolling out hordes of Gigabytes for much less cost, I opted for the 3 GB 7-day plan which cost a paltry N500. A tempting offer wasn't it?

To cut this long story short, I had the WORST internet browsing experience with glo, since the invention of modern computing. I just don't know how to describe this, but it felt like 1984 on a mainframe system! I just frustratingly watched time-blended MBs roll away without any work done.

What has gone wrong with Glo for Pete's sake? For over a month now I've read several complaints from Glo users hinting on how terrible it has become in terms of quality service delivery. Perhaps many Nigerians have ended up smashing their devices because of the psychological torture a deliberately slow network offers. Seriously at one point yesterday I felt like putting my sim in a grinding machine.

What is glo doing about their slow internet network of late? Apart from announcing new tempting bumper offers of data, I've not heard of or seen any efforts in this direction. Has the Nigerian factor finally sipped in to gradually smear this company with an unbearable stench of inefficiency?

Just before I wrote this lamentation, I've removed my Glo sim and sworn never to have anything to do with the useless piece of crappy chip again. And remember what they say about a dissatisfied customer? He tells 20 others. Am I alone on this?

Don't mind the liar who said his IPHONE 6 MEMORY CARD got lost. He got busted cos iPhones don't use memory cards. Because he's so carried away by his perceived handsomeness, he's failed to have common sense and maturity, dishing out cheap lies like Chinese phones. Gosh!

I pray your perceived beauty doesn't lead to your doom (HIV et al). Learn to be humble because there's more to life than good looks and easy women.

When you are 40 you shall look back and reminisce.

In an era when the rest of the world is going futuristic, Nigerian university undergraduates are busy killing owls, bats, rats and cats because they think that these animals are possessed... How better can we depict the Stone Age?

An amarture kid asking if I'm into women. Think before you spew dumb shit.

No sane guy who knows he has a real future with a woman he slept with, won't detail everything! That's a fact!

Any guy who detailed everything and later had a real long-term love relationship with the woman, only did so after changing his mind because he developed real feelings for her!

If you've had a seasoned experience in relationship stuff, you would know that sometimes a man want to just f*uck a woman and move on but later ends up having some real feelings for her!
Guy no be quarrel- for you to start using very terrible language in your response. This is a discussion. Opinions ain't cast on stone.

My advice for the ladies;

Any man who gives his friends details on how he slept with you, doesn't care about you at all!

Trust me. If a man really likes you and wants to establish a long-term relationship with you, he won't tell his friends or anyone about the private stuff you two do in the bed.
Guy I don't know how into women you are or have been in the past, but I must tell you one truth: there is no particular formulae to the issue of love. I've had friends who- over a couple of beers- told us about how sweet their babes were in bed. No harm, just a sincere human being expressing how fortunate he was to be with his girl. Trust me, these relationships ALL ended in marriage...

So lemme tell you: a guy telling or not telling his friend about their bedroom experience will not stop marriage from happening. Take it from me because I've been into ladies.

Politics › Re: Ben Murray-Bruce: Anambra Doesn't Owe Salaries Despite Not Being An Oil State by tomquest: 1:57pm On Jun 17, 2016

Ben Bruce is a retard, he tries to appear smart but.... the truth is our problem is not federalism (at least it is not our biggest problem) our problem is imcompetence and corruption. If you have incompetent or corrupt leadears it doesn't matter if they control their resources or get it from the centre, they will still mismanage. What Anambra and Bayelsa shows is that if your leaders are sincere and the people are hard working or if your leaders are uinsincere and the people are lazy then it doesn't matter which system you run, your fate will still be the same.

You cannot stop the destiny of a people and leadership serious about their destiny no matter the obstacles and you cannot improve the lot of the lazy man no matter how you try.
True federalism is the way to go in Nigeria if we truly want different states to explore their human and natural resources towards the growth and development of its people. Anything short of this is just a way to deceive ourselves by robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Come to Canada and see the political model in play and how it has shaped the rapid development of the economies of different regions at their respective paces.

What is Nigeria afraid of? Of course we all know: lazy and economically unintelligent governors,whose sole expertise is talking politics from day to day, abound from north to south. They are not ready to explore. All they are good at is WAITING FOR ALLOCATION TO PAY SALARIES. Once this is done, people like fayose resume their daily job function of making political statements and going about doing "stomach infrastructure"...

We can't go anywhere in this country walking backwards...

I don't know why people will always focus on attacking the "messenger" instead of the "message" passed.

For the past 50yrs, we have all known that oil is a course to this nation.

ND and their 13% is not an exception here.
All those oil producing state all have governors that are not serious about looking elsewhere. They are all bent on lavishing state funds. They all seek to be elected so that they will loot.

I am not saying that the Anambra state governor or lagos state governor are not corrupt or are the best.

But these two states are both none oil producing, whatever is achieved in those states so far is from their initiatives on how to generate funds in other sectors of the economy(it also boosts the economy and bring about creativity). It takes a man with zeal to think outside the box.


Unlike other governors of oil producing states that seek for elections so that they will embezzle the treasury. Other rich and educated people from none oil producing states seek for political offices even when they know that the state has nothing to embezzle, it shows that they are ready to make something out of nothing and for that very fact, it will also be likened that all the 36states can survive without oil the same way these few states has been serving without loans, bail out or special derivations from sale of oil.

Many state governors in Nigeria both in oil producing states and none oil producing states all depend on what will come out from the centre. They always go to sleep, knowing fully well that by the end of the month, FG will share money amongst the states and if the money is not enough, they will press for bail outs. They will owe salaries and people that are being owed by the states will blame the FG on behalf of their governors. WHY? because everyone now depends on FG. They no longer hold their governors accountable, they now hold FG.

Eg, if a state governor refuses to renovate a state owned skul, instead of blaming and calling the governor to other, u will see people blaming buhari( I am not a fan of buhari, infact I hate his guts, but we must always say the truth). WHY? because our mindset is all focused on OIL and who controls The oil? The FG. And that is why all states and all Nigerians look up to FG.

My question is, if FG does everything from FG > STATES > LG > COUNCILS, why then where governors, local government chairmen and councillors elected in the 1stplace?

BMB just used anambra to drive home his points.


He would have made reference to bayelsa, but they are already a failed state. And bring them to play in his tweet objective will only but rubbish the message he was about passing out.




Anambra has been looking inward.

Anambra has oil deposits (plenty to last them over the next 50yrs).

Anambra also has natural gas deposits in abundance.

Anambra is also blessed to survive without the two natural resources mentioned.

Anambra believes that they can thread anywhere that is dreaded by others.

This mindset is not just for the govt, anambra indigens believe that govt can not do anything for them to better their individual lives and that is why all is trying in his or her own little way to be industrious and successful @least to be self sufficient.


An anmabra man will spit on u if u dash him money instead of teaching him how to make money. We believe that "nothing" is free on earth, more reason we work hard to achieve what we want.

And that mindset of its people is helping the govt. Of anambra state.









Ben bruce only want all nigerians to think like anambra people,we wants all of us to shift our focus away from oil and explore other avenues. And the best way to do that is by practising "true federalism". So that individual states will know it @ the back of their palms that if they don't work hard/smart, hunger will kill them (individuals and leaders alike). Because their won't be dependency on oil.


So that electorates will clean their eyes when electing lazy and fraudulent leaders or governors.
You've spoken well. The difference between Ndi Anambra and other Nigerians is the MINDSET. Like you said, Anambrarians don't believe that government will make them rich or successful in life, unlike most other parts of the country where governors literally talk politics from morning till night, traveling and attending parties because they are sure monthly allocation will come at the end of each month.
