Cantonese:
When they are unlicensed they are illegal. Let’s call a spade a spade in this matter.

Do you know that there are what they call Modular refineries now in this country? These are mini refineries licensed by the government. The fact here in this matter is that certain greedy persons in those areas claim that oil belong to them and they can actually do what they like. How many people are employed? The police and Nscdc personnel guarding those places are already employed people, yet they make illegal income guarding those places.

They are NOT local refineries and they are not even refineries. Refineries have standard operating procedures and one of them is how to manage the environment. These greedy people do not care about the environment and that’s a major problem. No responsible government will sit back and watch certain persons continually pollute the environment in addition to what they presently experience from the legitimate organizations and keep quiet.

Governor Wike must be commended for this action. Hopefully these illegal refineries are shut down before the people begin to suffer cancer and other dangerous health related matters.

Cheers.

Thank you for the write up, even though you failed to address the critical issue of breaking pipes to steal crude. Those calling for them to be licensed failed to realise that those people have no access to crude except stealing. And if crude is sold to them they cant even break even due to the inefficient and incomplete conversion process.

DanseMacabre:
Oga Solicitor, how him even take get the visa enter in the first place? Who approve him visa? It even lends more credence to my assertion.

More questions, how did he get pass Australian immigration officials upon arrival?

mfm04622:
It was NOT the Australian govt that gave him the exemption, it was the organizers of the Open! Of course the organizers want him to play in the tournament

And he wasn't turned back by Australian immigration officials at the airport?

Sandralight:
There are actually some sites that dont bother with OTP, like netflix just put your card details and voila you have paid, they dont send otp to the person.

I have done some transactions in some foreign site that dont require OTP.
So if your atm get lost or stolen, call the bank to block it because if you dont your money is gone

What about the four digit sacret pin of the atm card?

aminusodiq:
DYR.

I WON'T TELL YOU COS I'D BE AIDING FRAUD

Clue- it's a very popular website

The way the fellow has been asking for websites sounds like someone who's money heist is being frustrated by OTP

engrzico:
OP According to your statement, your brother lost his ATM when he was at home, and the unauthorized transaction occured when he came back home. The perpetrator ofthis act is likely within.

Good day, everyone. I lost my brother's Polaris bank ATM Card last month. He didn't bother to go and block it in the bank, and went for his military service in Borno state.

He came back this month and this afternoon, he received debit alerts on his phone, as a result of the lost ATM card. When I came home this evening and he showed me the alerts, I discovered that prior to the debit alert, he had received message requesting for OTP five times. I was dumbfounded and till now I can't grasp how it happened.

Most likely scenario. Someone very close had access to that phone and retrieved the otp to complete the transactions, which explains why there was no transaction while he was far away on duty. Someone who knows the atm card pin

Reference:
I may be entirely wrong.
But why do I have this feeling that this post is just a fishing expedition for information about loopholes in various systems.
Sometimes the knowledge and experiences shared in some conversations will end up hurting more people than intended.
Its a double edged sword.
The best way to respond will be to omit specific brand names and institutions and just be generic with information.

You are perfectly right as i can already see some people are asking for specific websites. Truly a double-edged sword!

Every ATM card has a secret four digit pin required for transactions, and not inscribed on the card as the other details (except the card owner foolishly choses to do so themselves). Is it possible to bypass that?

Femeto:
They probably guessed the OTP for the transaction or used AI to generate the code. The money is gone.

Guessing the six or eight digits OTP successfully is highly improbable, if not impossible. But what about the four digit secret pin required for transactions on that card? Can that be bypassed?

Going through the comments, no one has said anything about the 4 digit secret pin that will be needed for transactions on the card. Am I missing something please?

The statement of governor Wike confirms the involvement of public officials, politicians, traditional institutions and security personnel in the theft and illegal refining activities that have plagued the port harcourt air with soot. You can almost tell the government knew exactly what has been going on all along

Its all the more clearer why the twitter ban was lifted just on the 'eve' of electioneering. The government of the day does not want the opposition to have a headstart going into 2023 elections considering they defied the ban and remained active on twitter. The incumbent government understands what many who will shout "there is no polling booth on social media" cannot comprehend.

So, if we somehow exploit those our "minerals of the future" and miraculously build electric vehicles, am wondering how those cars will be charged considering that Nigeria has not made much progress in providing power to its citizenry

[quote author= post=109379559]Slow and steady we will get to the nation of our dreams[/quote]It must be deliberate delusion for anyone to think that Nigeria will "slow and steady" become the nation of "our dreams".
This is not about PDP or APC, Buhari, Atiku, Tinubu, Osinbanjo or Peter Obi, but every objective discerning mind can see that there is hardly any future to project in 15-20 years ahead. The elites and political/ruling class are well aware of this. Wake up and read the writing on the wall!

babyfaceafrica:
Public opinion don't decide who wins election. It is those with PVC who are likely to collect bread, kerosene and 500 naira to vote. All the English we have been speaking on twitter and Facebook, how many people vote?

You have displayed the disingenuous and foolhardy attitude I earlier referred to, which the government refused to fall prey to like yourself

babyfaceafrica:
Twitter doesn't decides election.. Many people who vote aren't on social media!. You think bubu got elected based on social media?

Its true that 'there is no polling booth on social media', but it will be highly disingenuous and foolhardy for anyone to play down its role in influencing public opinion. If you don't recognize that, the incumbent government does. They cannot afford to give the opposition party a head start going into national election, hence the unbanning on the 'eve of elections'.

Thr words 'best' and 'civil service' cannot exist together in the Nigerian context

"It's nobody's business"
Elected public office in Nigeria has been reduced to personal fiefdom of aggrandizement.
In a sane society this man owes the entire citizenry of Abia state an apology for such drivel, but this is Nigeria

Gmajor:
You're not making sense.
They article said that some died by asphyxiation.
You said this isn't possible considering that they opened the window to let in fresh air.
Are you now saying that they opened the window and still died of asphyxiation?

I never said they opened the window. Just realized that you never understood my initial post, hence the back and forth. Confirm before attempting your response please

Gmajor:
No.
You're making a false equivalence.
You made a statement as if you know that it is a fact. But there's no way you can be sure that you're correct unless you were with them when it happened

Same with the poser i put to you. It is not factual except you were there to witness on the night of your conception.

agentarcher:
Anything that works for them. But I don't get why some people here are just nagging about this move. You don't live in Kaduna but you are angry about this move. Why not focus on the problems of your state and leave the people of Kaduna to debate whether this move is right for them?

Because other states including where i reside will toil for 5 days and what comes from there will be shared at the center with kaduna which only brings 4 days of work.
Hope this curbs some of the ignorance

fjjc:
How does this become islamization of Nigeria?
Declaring Friday a free working days is not anyway affect anything in people life but add more value to people lives. More more to those that engage in recreational and tourism business. And enough rest from 'hussling and busling'.

In a country with next to zero productivity, staggering unemployment and record poverty levels? Even your reasoning is unproductive, please!

teepain:
This is the reason why people are clamouring for fiscal federalism - let each state control whatever they generate and pay a percentage to the FG.

Not this one that some states would be productive for 4 days and some will be productive for 5 or more days and the FG would now share (allocate) funds to them regardless of their respective productivities.

As soon as there is fiscal federalism, any state that wishes can implement 2 working days per week.

Sound reasoning there

Lovenorth:
Kaduna is an Islamic state

You'd love to think so or have it so but its not. And such assertion partly explains the ethno-religious crisis bedeviling southern kaduna people

Next move will be to do away with the Gregorian calender and adopt islamic calendar

Gmajor:
Were you in the car with them?

Your question is akin to asking 'how do you know your parents concieved you? Where you there when they had intercourse?'

adecz:
❌❌❌
All this

"North Is Bleeding" crap❗️❗️


Who caused the bleeding❓
None of them can come out and
blame the culprit Buhari...



Na hypocrisy dey kee dem ☹️☹️☹️

You missed their message
'North is NOT bleeding'

DarkJeddi:
You turned on the car to generate heat..

And you are opening the windows for fresh icy air?

Issorit..

Yes, momentarily, and that's how to avoid asphyxiation

Will love to witness this act first hand on the front row. Where is he?

Ebubeslym:
Nigga got some Levitating spell...and instead of using it to get to Canada, USA or even UK, he's using it to entertain folks in a 3rd world.

Mtchwwww

People subsisting on the bread line who cannot afford to pay for his incredible acts

If anyone wants to be brutally honest, no past or serving governor from 1999 deserves such praise. None! They all enrich themselves while giving their people pittance

"Before God and man, I have never been involved in any selling or stealing of gun before". Coming from same man that confessed to selling two guns to a confessed and confirmed cultist, there is clearly alot more illicit activities this guy has been involved in that only thorough investigation can uncover. Nothing can be trusted out of what he says
