I can't even sell my Starlink if I had one. I am even planning to get a Starlink mini as backup for downtime days. Will be subscribing to it intermittently. But I must say, Airtel, in a good place, save one the stress of bogus subscription. Sweet.

I think it was yesterday, or two days ago, when there was a downtime of more than 3 hours, affecting my work. So, Starlink would have come in handy. Also, I don't want to hear that diesel don cost, so they will be rationing network.

CuteMaro:
I have also been enjoying Airtel for a couple of months now that I had to sell off my Starlink because it didn't make sense keeping it, well until Airtel struck me for 2 good days lol. Happy it's back sha. I guess you can't have it all. I'm ok with 1 or 2 days of downtimes.

Let me quote you. I will use your link when I am ready. If this oil crisis worsens, there is a sure chance that our local telcos will be hit at their substations. Thinking ahead.

Please use my link

I brought this idea up here but nobody has ever used my link. Sorry for me

Judolisco:
that's from the recent implementation...it jst started last month... I'm in the system so I knw what I'm saying... From what you uploaded... There has been a 40% increment... So you people are talking from a place of ignorance

This was September - Nov. 2025. We await the implementation. Afi ignorance.

Rarely, at this claim in bold. The thing is, he/she must be a PhD in progress. Entry for PhD holders starts from Lecturer II. If you see a PhD lecturer as an assistant lecturer, it means the person was most likely employed when he or she was still in the programme. However, a year after graduation, he should undergo conversion or upgrade, and upon meeting the requirements, he will advance directly to Lecturer I, thereby bypassing Lecturer II.

clockwisereport:
If Assistant lecturer earns 350k, how much does a senior lecturer and prof earn?

Again, a PhD holder is employed as an assistant lecturer and not ur lecturer II

That's absolutely correct, as you will see in my screenshot above for OAU.

honour8:
maybe you are working outside the country, or running your personal business because no Nigerian institution will pay you more than 280000naira mountly lecturer II.

Hearme:
Haba Oga. Assistant Lecturer Federal University 350k which year? Even with the recent increments and allowances effective 2026 I doubt if they will get 350k.
Private Universities are mandated to pay at least the CONUASS SCALE by NUC and not below that. The guy in question must have been recently employed as Lect II or just got promoted from AL to lecturer II. The same cry of Public universities was also getting to the private University staff, but they can't protest or join unions. I'm sure people will understand why ASUU was crying that Professors take home was less than 450k back then.

That's how you know people who are not in the system and doesn't know jack. The day I know Nigerians have a problem with figures, I decided to rest.

Oga judolisco, abeg where you see 350k for Federal university?

Judolisco:
PhD holder can't be a lecturer 2 except he jst got his PhD while stil being employed and have to wait for promotion .....from d payslip he took salary advance of 33k or so... Make d guy tell us truth abeg... Dis is a salary of someone with msc...

If dis is true then the university should do better.... U can't be collecting huge fees from students and be paying phd holders peanuts.... An assistant lecturer salary in a federal University is 350k... Assistant Lecturer o

This is the salary range for the recruitment done at OAU just a few months back. Pay attention to the highest range and divide by 12. You have your answer. 'Cos of PhD, you think they will just start paying you 500k...a lot of you don't know how bad the system is.

I just got my PhD last year and trying to enter the system. Even got to the interview stage. Last last, na politics dem take recruit many of them... lol...check the below screenshot.

sonnie10:
Let’s go by real figures. Publicly available data shows that Covenant university has about 500 Academic staff.
At #170k a monthly, annual salary for each academic staff will be #2.04M

Therefore the total salary for all academic staff is. 500 x #2.04 which is approx #1B yearly

Now, there are about 8000 registered students ( information from public data) paying #1. 5M yearly.
Total revenue is #1.5 m x 8000 = #12B yearly.

Let’s assume they have another 500 non academic staff for a total salary of #1B

What else ? Petrol and diesel ? #1b

Only #3b in expenditures for a revenue of #12B

Oga. I know this is over simplified but these people are making a killing

Feeding and other operations cannot take up to #5b

They generate their own electricity. No need for petrol and diesel stuff.

Airtel network is really bad this morning.

CuteMaro:
After I made this post, I went ahead to experience one of the worst network situations ever today. Them really dey share this thing man.

barlou:
Guys, please help. I noticed my delta 2 charges below the set charging speed (when using either generator or nepa). I understand the charging current is usually not exact. It would fluctuate but it would either be a bit lower or higher than the limit.

I set the speed to 200w and it charges below 100w. What can be the cause?

For NEPA, use it with a 1kwh stabilizer. Set to 500w.

For generator, if you want it to charge at 500 watts, ensure you place load on the generator very well, before plugging it in.

I use the 5G router, so I do not experience this.

A lot of complaints about their outdoor units.

gambus007:
Yes, it only works well in the middle of the night, from about 12 a.m. to 6 a.m. After that, it slows down. I have relocated the position, but the issue remains the same. I also changed the antenna to a directional one and pointed it toward the tower. Unfortunately, I bought this device. I can’t use it for online gaming during the day, and even at midnight the ping sometimes becomes very low and skips.

On ODU?

gambus007:
Airtel can be crazy sometimes ….poor network from 8 till 11pm

Prepare!

Try and get her a government job if possible.

funkmrflexx:
I've been married for 3 years now with 2 kids, I try my best to take care of my family but the economy has become very bad so it's no longer possible to take care of a family of 4 on just 1 income.
When I had money, I setup a business for my wife because I want her to be engaged and also she can support with whatever she has from the business, but after a year the business crumbled with no results to show (she gave many excuses on why she can't continue the business), even after that I've tried engaging her on other endeavors but she's not always serious.

Now she does nothing, she just presses phone and play games all day long, all the responsibilities are on me, basically everything from school fees, feeding, house rent to buying a cube of Maggi.

I've tried talking to her several times but she will pretend to be serious and goes back to default settings, I'm tired and its really talking a tole on me, sometimes I just get angry at her for no reason and I don't even want to come home.

It's not the fact the she's staying home that's the issue, its the fact the she's not showing any effort to try and do something. I'm tired because all the money I make is being used for feeding and running the house, I can't even save or even think about buying properties

200 when US/Israel strikes Iran oil fields.

LincolnOnyeabor:
Oil is the New Gold!!!

Going to get to possibly $120-150 a barrel

Possibly priced in.

Bluearrow:
Why is gold not pumping despite the war. I was thinking gold will probably be around 7k by now because of the war.

Prepare!

SmartPolician:
This is a lie because Naira cards don't work on many foreign websites. Days ago, I attempted using my naira card to pay for Hostinger hosting services and the transaction was declined because Nigerian banks don't support it.

Which of the bank's cards?

Ọmọ ọgbọ́n...make Amazon fast-track their product in Nigeria and launch soonest.

You can go to the Starlink thread!

SolomonGrundy:
Good day everyone, pls who uses starlink mini here?

Samsung that the screen is almost equal to the phone's original price.

Then the green and pink screen lines...I no do abeg.

ceeceeco:
If it is not SAMSUNG then I'm not interested.

What a write-up!

ShenTeh:
For me it is the most reasonable choice.
* Price is lower and core features match many of the later models, which rely highly on hype and advets.
* 14 Pro models also have the so called advanced camera and display tech, the standard 14 has best balance of performance and affordability
* Bigger screen
* Longer battery life - over 24hrs nonstop video time on one full charge, without paying the heavy difference for the 16s and 17s
* It is considered the best budget-friendly option in the new generation range, you get premium perks at a mid-range cost.
Performance: Powered by the A15 Bionic chip with an upgraded 5-core GPU and 6GB of RAM memory, Great for multitasking and gaming.
* Display and camera features offers best value for price due to the Dynamic Island and 120Hz ProMotion display. Camera is great, I think about 50MP main sensor,

Choose the base model iPhone 14 if you want the most affordable entry point into the series. If you need a larger screen and better battery, choose the 14 Plus. For professional grade camera and smoother display choose the 14 Pro.

If you have money to waste to prove your complex status, choose the 16s and 17s. And be ready to change it again by September, which is barely 6 months away.


See what I found on AI

Get Tecno Camon 40 pro or wait for March when they will release the Camon 50 series.

Techu:
Please help me decide.

Tech guys in the building...

16 pro max or 17 AIR.

I wanna leave android and taste iPhone to see how it feels or how it is

Why the 14 and not the newest version? Of ocurse, he should not go for Air. Base version is okay, but why the 14 which was announced in 2022?

ShenTeh:
Iphone 14.

I know you won't listen but when "post-nut clarity" hits, you will remember this.

iamlammy:
It’s not the initial sub that comes with it

Okay

Lol. Actually, I was given with the 5g router. Maybe policy don change. Sorry.

iamlammy:
I just called airtel and they said there is no such information on their network. They scammed us

It has to do with your ISP. Most especially MTN I think. Remeber when they banned crypto and websites weren't opening then? I believe they forgot to remove the restrictions totally. It happens to me too if I want to go via website rather than app.

webizone:
I tried opening Binance but it doesn't seem to open. Is it geo-blocked in Nigeria or something?
