Yep, you now have to go and queue in the banking hall if you want to transfer more than 50k. And you can only transfer a maximum of 15k at once.

You'll later be ashamed of yourself for this high level mediocrity.

Although the information from the CBN presume everyone that every Nigerian have a fair knowledge of how "Contactless" transaction works. But in reality, it is a new financial terminology to large number of people that have access to internet while others outside this category are still living in the stone age ...

Contactless transactions is not operating in the same technology as your bank app or your magnetic stripped card system. It uses radio frequency identification to interact with paying and receiving parties within a specified radius.
It is a secured means of transaction where your information is encoded and cannot be traced by any other parties including government agencies and Central Bank. (Untraceable Transactions)

Did you now see the reason why the use must be regulated before it becomes generally accepted.

Please get a family ticket for me in that cruise... I hope they will come to pick me up somewhere around Marina for the trip.

Too late to cry when the head is off.

You should done this before the judgement is served. Ten years is jus 2 years after Tinubu's 2nd term in the office.

Hmmm.. waice6571, Ajagunakin and Helinues come and see that rino omockery you lots are in romance with here o!

We neither classified them as an "accursed" the only problem with most of them (not all of them) is their inability to treat others with fair respect and dignity that was accorded to them.

Feed them in the morning, before your food settles down in their lungs, they are already throwing slurs at your tribe

They never appreciate other peoples contributions and efforts towards their success. For instance; millions of Hausas and Yorubas stood with Peter Obi in the last general elections, but the Obiduents sees it as only Igbo affairs and achievements.

Afonjanawerey:
Which real issue are you talking about? when fear and lack of courage has been embodied in your DNA

If you talk of DNA of people without an iota of courage, I think you should look inward into your tribesmen.

In our recent past ......DJ SWITCH, FALS and Debo MACARONI played major role in struggle against police brutality in Nigeria in the year 2020. The only person that ran away into exile for fear arrest is the only Igbo amongst the three .... Typical of her forefathers.

Tell us another lie.

Afonjanawerey:
Who is oba of Ilorin?

Google is your friend. We are discussing real issues here, you are catching cruiz simply because you cannot connect the dots and bring out reasonable pictures from your world of imaginations and fantasies.

Records set straight!!!!!! No more arguments!

Wutinky:
They are indeed cowards, lazy , cunny and blessed with low self esteem . Spit

Can you give us a proof to disprove @renoomokri's historical claims....

More reactions

If you read Major Ademoyega's book, Why We Struck, you will understand that he displayed typical Omluabi nature in that he abhorred killings and preferred the politicians to be arrested.

And let me correct this stereotype of Yorubas as cowards. Historically, the Yorubas have been the bravest soldiers and leaders in Nigeria.

Chief Obafemi Awolowo, for instance, would never have done what Nnamdi Azikiwe and Colonel Emeka Ojukwu did. Azikiwe snuck out of Biafra in 1969 and turned up in Lagos, sitting beside Gowon, and condemned Biafra and Ojukwu. Colonel Ojukwu himself fled Biafra on January 11, 1970.

Awolowo would never do that? Chief Awolowo had the opportunity to leave Nigeria and go into exile when he was accused of treason in 1962. Kwame Nkrumah offered him that option. But he stayed. He fought the case. He was convicted in 1963, went to prison and never begged to be released. He continued to control the Action Group from Calabar prison.

Major General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi was a guest of Col. Adekunle Fajuyi on July 29, 1966. When Northern troops, led by then Major Theophilus Danjuma, came to arrest Ironsi, he refused to release him. He was told he could replace Ironsi, but he would not budge. He chose to die with his guest! Today, his sacrifice is not appreciated by some of the people who should appreciate it. Instead, some people accuse the Yoruba of betrayal.

Also, when the then US Ambassador to Nigeria, Walter Carrington, told General Obasanjo not to return to Nigeria from Copenhagen because Abacha would arrest him on charges of coup plotting, General Obasanjo instead brought forward his return date. When asked why he returned to Nigeria, he posited that if he returned, Abacha would be less likely to kill those already arrested, especially his friend, Shehu Musa Yar’adua.

How many Nigerians do you know who can behave so honourably?

Major General Tunde Idiagbon was abroad in Mecca when Babangida and Sani Abacha overthrew him and Major General Buhari. But he returned.

Finally, there is the case of MKO Abiola, who returned to reclaim his mandate from Nigeria’s most brutal military dictator ever. He was arrested in 1994. He was offered bail, but refused freedom in exchange for abandoning his mandate. This was a multimillionaire in US Dollars. Yet, Bashorun chose prison over freedom. He did not run away and abandon his people.

The Yoruba are a very tactful and diplomatic people. They tend to be contemplative, rather than impulsive. These are attributes that some people mistake for cowardice or sycophancy. They are people who understand how to stoop to conquer.

No Yoruba leader would abandon his people and side with their opponents during a war or flee and leave them to their fate. Others may behave like that, but not Omo Oduduwa!

Thanks again, and may God bless you.

Russia's next president/dictator in the making....

This cannot work effectively. The aims and objectives will be defeated easily.

For instance, I may register my Nairaland account with my bank and come back here to deactivate that moniker and activate another account and continue with my life. Same with Facebook account, Instagram and other social media platforms.

No need to fight over this infractions.... It comes with a permanent solution....

If this gesture could be replicated in all strata of academics, maybe many students would prioritise their education over olosho runs ...

Thank you Gov. Sanwoolu of Lagos state.
Thank you Oniba of Iba.

This is @op true identity

Adonispco:
Am sorry for my writing pattern; I am in a serious dilemma since January.

I live in a face me I slap you house with just four co-tenants and the landlord.

There is this neighbour of mine that parked in on December 2021, a married man with three kids; two daughters and a son,the eldest daughter should be around 14 years old while the son and the last daughter should be about 4 & 2 years respectively.

We where living in peace although one has to make tolerance a friend for there to be peace.
These my neighbour's eldest daughter to be honest is morally bankrupted, she steals and lies without remorse.

My neighbour's wife always try to cover up her daughter bad behaviours. During christmas time 2022, I noticed a sudden suspicious behaviours from my neighbours wife towards me in particular; she does as if am a diabolic person, as a cool headed guy I focused on my life until on January 21 2023 when I heard the worst words towards my dignity and reputation as a common person;

Fellow nairalanders guess what? My neighbours wife accused me of poisoning his two little kids.

As a cool guy and from what i learnt never to take action when angry, I maintained like its nothing but told our landlord.

My neighbour who is a driver usually travels and can stay there for weeks, so I have to wait for the man of the house to return and hear from him before taking action, so on 29 January he returned, a general yard meeting processed; he was asked to explain more on the accusation from his wife towards me and this was what he said;

"Someone in our yard premises poisoned his children using mirinda and biscuit" that we all are lucky nothing happened to his kids otherwise he will call the police to arrest everybody in our yard.

When asked how he found out that it was someone from our yard and what sickness his children suffered; he said that his children were vomiting blood in the middle of the night, and he went to a spiritual doctor who told him that it was someone from the yard he lives in.

Please Nairalanders what will I do cause I have tried to let go of this heavy accusation but it havent been easy and to make matters worse the once loved innocent easy going guy have become a depressed soul due to the crack on my previous solid reputation.

Please anyone with a good pragmatic solution should help a brother.

I think you should grow up a bit and behave like a matured person. Do you think everyone is gullible and naive like you who found it difficult to read in-between the lines.

You created an untrue storyline without shame... even lazy mods on Nairaland was decieved to move your lies to the front page......

I think everyone that are responding to your useless thread should take a little journey through your previous posts and see low some people can go chassing clout

Chetas81:
six that face you become nine in other side 😜 Nigerian entertainment industry is killing people's moral, and we can be the same no matter what ✍️

I found it difficult to comprehend your response... Or is it a rap song lyrics or some incantations ?

OboOlora:
What’s this rubbish and who is promoting this rubbish? Someone is just shouting incantations to beat and they call it music
Shame!

Is it loss hearing or assimilation deficiency?

Where did you see incantations in the lyrics of that song? Bad belle will blow up some people's belly.

Thundafireseun:

These are unarmed Iron condemn searching for daily bread , and the Nigerian police feels it has done enough to deserve an applaud …

SHAME ON ALL OF YOU….IRON CONDEMN AND NIGERIA POLICE

Modified… my point is that this is too petite of a crime to make the news ….
Plus this guys are always anywhere they feel they could easily get steel , there should be a level of security at the site to scare them away

Inverted reasoning......

Why is his face kon black like Baba Suwe's facial costume...?

Star boy all the way.

Posterity will never be kind to some people because of their stupidity of 11 years ago....


Thank God I was never deceived.

Nightmares and horrific pictures of Nigerians that died a needless under your watch as the president of Nigeria shall be your closest ally anytime you close your eyes to sleep.

Nothing lasts forever! Thank God.

CuriousCart:
I have noticed that most Nigerians are adults by age only and not thought. 80% of adults lack a clue about their next move and direction.

They usually copy what other successful people around them are doing on the surface.

If a colleague buys a car, they start getting worked up until they also buy a car. If a neighbour opens a shop for his wife they rush to open a shop too. If their friend is into tech, they abandon their budding career and start taking tech courses upandan.

I think the copiers do this because they believe mimicking will make them reach the same goals as the person but they fail to realize that life doesn't work that way because there are many unseen events and efforts that may have led to the copyee's success.

The colleague who bought a car may have been gifted by a sugar daddy or recently lost a parent and inherited the car while you are planning to use your entire savings plus loan.
The neighbour opening a shop may have had 15 years experience in that biz line while you just want to dive into it blindly.
The tech guy may just have the brains for it while you are more likely to succeed at sales.


Finally, when they are done copying and don't achieve the same successful result as the copyee, the next thing is to accuse him/her of using juju and using people's destiny to succeed.

Just do you.

Your observation is good but not all encompassing! I do not understand how you come about your 80% statistical figure but I think you are exaggerating.

Nigerians are innovative dynamic and forward looking people even in the face of obscurities, helplessness and hopelessness yet, we are striving hard to make ends meet.

Why do you think almost everyone want to 'japa' to other countries where things work? We have examples of people who travelled to another economy and after few months or years, someone classified as a lazy bone in Nigeria will be making a legitimate money and living his dreamt life. We all have one story or the other close to us.

You don't expect too much from the citizens of a country where there are no systems to plug into to thrive...... Not everyone will be a business owner in life.

Your line of thought corresponds with Buhari's who called Nigerian youth lazy even when his policies are draining the economy and making life difficult for the citizens.

Goodluck Jonathan, the only good man in Nigeria politics.

JohnBullMySon:
it's not good to let emotions get the better of you while responding to someone on a forum because what you see is just a text. You may misread a genuine question as mockery because all you see is text. You cannot see the facial expressions of the person who asked it.

I specifically stated that I'm not trying to be insensitive so that no one misunderstands the text. If I asked you in person, I will not need to say that because my tone and facial expressions will give you the proper context.

Dear Johnbull... If you look critically into my choice of words and the manner of expression, you can easily deduce that, I am only responding to your question and not being emotional.

That Christian Atsu got a state burial in his country of birth at age 31 and being among 54,000 who died unexpectedly due to unavoidable natural disaster is sobering and anger inducing enough to ask some questions under the guise of insensitivity.

To you, he is not a hero, but to some, a small god! If the best way to grief his loss is what they have done, that tells us that, his very short live was meaningful and impacts others positively.

Above all, I never wish you evil in my mention, but, just pulling a sarcasms and rhetorics in one sentence.

RIP Christian Atsu.....

JohnBullMySon:
RIP Atsu

I'm not trying to be insensitive but I don't understand why he's being laid to rest with military honors.

He was not a political leader. He was not in the military as well. Why the military procession?

Not being insensitive; but I don't think you can have 2 people to hold a candle night procession for you if you die suddenly today ( God forbid)

Banks will definitely regret all their stupidity very soon. Many people will not use bank again.

Scamburster:
Did you vote last time?

What concerns anybody with whether I casted my vote or not? Is it no my personal and inalienable rights to vote or be voted for anyone?

Is my vote a prerequisite for seeking redress in the court of law? Your question is funny anyway.

Is it possible to sue INEC for this postponement.... ?
I shifted a very important program from 11th March to 18th. After all necessary preparation has been done, INEC just woke up from their slumber to come and frustrate the plan once again.

Please, is it possible to seek redress in court against INEC over their unfortunate arbitrariess ?

Munachimso30:
Any option for we the hustlers ?

Yes, there is... Not as buoyant as UK, USA or Canada but far better than Nigeria... Cheaper and faster processing time....

hustla:
Again, you're typing and writing crap. Absolute nonsense.

Everything is on the gov.uk website and I'm no illiterate that you'll be using your "I have people in the UK" nonsense with irrelevant hearsay

I've been in the same UK for 1 yr+ and there's no official statement confirming any of the nons you have said.

Canada is a better study option as they have gotten their acts together, UK is still going through a transition and as such, rules aren't set in stone yet

What exactly is my gain if I am creating panic online for people who are willing to, and the financial means to better their lot in life by migrating into a better economy than ours.

People liked to be told exactly what they want to hear and face reality when they might made serious mistakes of their lives.

This is what I do for a living and I still have clients due for submission this week.... I swear, people should calm down on UK Study or skilled worker for now to avoid story that touches the heart.

Anybody that want to try it can go ahead.... UK high commission will continue to issue visa but what happens afterwards is for the applicant to face.

Thank you sir.
