DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UK, BRITAIN, ENGLAND?



England is a country just as Nigeria, and its capital is London just like Abuja is the capital of Nigeria.

Great Britain is a collection of 3 countries which came together as one country and has its capital as London. Those 3 countries are:

1. England,
2. Scotland and
3. Wales.

When you include Northern Ireland to these 3 countries, they become United Kingdom (union of four nations) Viz:
1. England,
2. Scotland,
3. Wales, and
4. Northern Ireland.

That is why it is referred to as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Collectively, it is taken as a country. And when this is the case, London is its capital.

Note however that the individual nations all have their own respective capitals.

Accordingly, the capital of
Scotland is Edinburgh,
Wales is Cardiff; Northern Ireland is Belfast;
England is London.

Ps : Northern Ireland is not to be mistaken for the Republic of Ireland. The latter is a separate country. Its capital is Dublin.

Thank you.

It's the analysis for me. You are doing well.

Millions of naira gone just like that. Gosh

90% of Nigerians won't return erroneous credit alert.

I believe we can. In Arteta we trust.

Awesome. I'm impressed.

God obviously didn't call this one.

But no be Ketu for Lagos this Awilo dey stay?

Cause I remember we used to sing 'Awilo Lokomba. Ketu Ketu Ketu Ketu bamba'

No, na Oshodi under bridge.

It's obvious the problem of arsenal is unsolvable. Not even Arteta can deliver the trophy arsenals fans are yearning for.

Chelsea is gone. O ti lo. Only Samson Siasia can revive Chelsea.

RockHard:
She's just a typical hypocrite like the rest of her kinsmen. Why apply for a job under a government you evidently hate so much? The same government that made the job available to begin with. Abi she isn't aware that the Lagos intracity rail is a Tinubu initiative, and that the same Sanwo-Olu she voted against is pulling all stops to ensure that it's completed.

I can beat my chest that an Obidient-LP government would never reciprocate the same gesture. Never. Ibos aren't that stupid. It's only yorubas that will be caught exhibiting such foolish to bigoted Obidients. Same Obidients that have been cancelling people that chose not to vote for Obi, gaslighting and even going as far as firing APC-leaning staff (yes, a Yoruba lady was fired by her ibo boss for celebrating Tinubu's victory, even though she has brought millions of naira in sales to her bosses this year alone. The issue trended on twitter when it happened). Yet you people have no problem with the same hate-filled Obidients applying and getting jobs under the same APC-led government you love to hate? What manner of hypocrisy is that Make it make sense.

So obi's movement is Igbo thing?

Sometimes I wonder if our society prioritize the idea of curbing digital and financial crime or they actually create an enabling environment to abet such crimes.
Amidst this naira scarcity which still persist to some extent in various areas, it will be an understatement to say that our banking system failed woefully if we're to judge by their performance throughout the naira crisis till date.
I wish to bring to everyone's attention that the United Bank for Africa (UBA) is more of a criminal organization that one has to be careful with while dealing with their customers because there's a high chance of one getting into trouble due to the lapses from their back-end.
UBA bank is one of the banks which a successful mobile transfer from their customers can easily be reversed to the customer after business has been transacted and the customer is gone.

My experience
I was at our shop when a customer came in to make some purchase of goods to the tone of almost 200,000. He tried to pay with card but the machine couldn't read his card so we opted for the option of transfer which he did using the UBA mobile App in his phone. I saw him did the transaction and he it was successful. I waited for the alert to drop after a few minutes but it didn't. I now asked him to share the receipt of the transaction with me but he suggested I should just snap it from his screen since his colleagues were already calling on him which I did. I snapped the receipt containing the transaction reference, sender's name, recipient account number and bank, name of sender and date then we exchanged contact which I dialed the number to be sure that the number was active and inside his phone. After checking my account with my first mobile app severally and not seeing the money, I now decided to send 1,000 naira from my OPAY account to my First bank account to see if that will trigger both alert to drop but still, I also didn't get the alert for the 1,000 I did so I symply assumed First bank was probably having credit alerts issues so I was calm and didn't bother to disturb him only for me to hear my phone ringing and it was the customer calling, I picked the call and he told me that the money had been reversed to him and that boosted my confidence somehow so I imagined he couldn't have been a fraudster then I asked if I should send another account number and he agreed then I sent my fidelity bank account. Then I started calling him to confirm if he had received the message but he didn't pick. I kept calling at intervals for six times and later sent him a text then he called me back telling me that he had seen the account I sent that his mobile app was just having network issues that I shouldn't worry.
Then when we were about to close, I decided to ask him about it again but his line was no longer reachable and his call was already forwarded to a non existence number. Till this moment, I haven't been able reach the customer neither did he call me.
Thanks to UBA bank who will reverse a successful mobile transfer to their customer after business must have been transacted.
If I hadn't had this experience with my kid sister who owns a UBA bank and did a 10k transfer to me which showed successful and she was debited but which was later reversed to her, I would have assumed that the customer must have used a cloned mobile app to defraud me but no, that is how UBA operates. They can reverse a money transfer to their customers after it shows successful with transaction receipt generated.
I'm just down right now, don't know what to do cos I don't have such amount of money to repay my boss.

This is very common within the banking system and not limited to UBA. Your transaction with the customer was based on trust which for me it was a mistake on your part. Make sure the amount transferred reflect in your account balance before any approval. Mind you, a receipt of a successful transfer doesn't not necessarily mean the receiver has been credited. Most times, if the receiver bank network is fluctuating at the point of transfer,it's 50/50. Have experienced this alot. Actually told those involved to contact their bank customer service to confirm the status of the transaction.

You don't just hand over goods to people in the name of you've seen the receipt. Receipt plenty guy.

RockHard:
Sanwo-Olu needs to sit up and stop employing enemies of Yoruba people. This girl is an unapologetic Obidient (the same extremists who cancel and bully anyone that doesn't support Obi, same people who were firing their staff that weren't going to vote for Obi). She voted LP top to bottom in Lagos, against the very party whose policies made her job exist.

When will Yoruba people learn to put their own people first in Lagos? This nonsense needs to stop, honestly.

You guys will somehow politicize every damn thing. So she has no opinion because she's a train driver working in Lagos? Yoruba should consider their kin first even if nothing fruitful can come out from that choice? Gosh.

''My car" is prohibited. Reckless driving by the so called big boys is alarming.

Okoroawusa:
Women wey go school dey fine special fine

Lol. Your assertion is false. The future is female anyway.

The consequences of chasing clout without recourse to reasoning. Clout should be the least of your worries at that age.

It was a thing then. Sold ours in 2014

TOPCRUISE:
Where did I see them or they are selling it out at a very higher price. Visit those near you.

I can't contest this with you base on the fact that location differs. However, it will be ridiculous of those patronizing them because all notes are legal tender irrespective of whether it's new or old notes. Absolutely nobody in my area buy new notes and the highest price for old notes on 5k is #200.

TOPCRUISE:
Why are POS having the new notes

Where did you see them giving out the new notes?

Some are hoarding the new notes.

Rubbish. If arsenal fail to win the league, arteta should be arrested.

Even Ikorodu United will annihilate this Chelsea team.

Lol. Festus Keyamo's colleague.

Vee my babe. I'm available.

Ronaldo is the manager

Diligent1:
Tinubu is chosen by God, anybody that goes against it will see the wrath of God.

Lol. A personality that's is shredded in facade in the same sentence with God? God is such a merciful one cause on a norm you should be in prison for this incriminating statement.

..which one nibbs abeg??if them wake up today abeg mention me..my money dey pending.i don strand

It's been worked on. NIBSS is the organization that facilitate transfer in the banking system. Whenever NIBSS is down, forget transfer.

With evil heart. Dey play there apari.
