Omg omg and they want us to pay more tax for more lavsing.

They'll not say anything about their own incompetence

If we talk unreasonable helinues will reply with famous quote "go back to your state". Same quote that Tinubu needs to hear the most

Helinuse:
Why do they dislike the truth?

Eh?

Why?

OPay has not denied that they are willing to give. Why then is the government running Kitikata?

cezarman:
I think this Helinuse is more reasobale than the other one.

I don block that one since but I know he'll be on this thread typing propaganda

I first confuse o. Na your post make me realise say no be the unreasonable helinues make the post

Thought they said x formally twitter will open office in Nigeria.

There’s something painful about buying a car in Nigeria—especially used ones. You save, you hustle, you pay… only to later discover you overpaid for a car with hidden faults, messed-up papers, or artificially inflated price.

It happened to me too.

I almost dropped ₦3.6M on a Toyota Camry that wasn't even worth ₦2.7M. Why? Because of emotional buying + dealer psychology + lack of insider knowledge.

Let me tell you what they won’t teach you on YouTube:

7 Things Every Nigerian Should Know Before Buying a Used Car (Especially from Dealers):

1. Most Prices Are Inflated by 20–40%
Car dealers add margins based on vibes, not necessarily market value. If you don’t know how to check true valuation, you’ll pay premium for nothing.

2. Tokunbo ≠ Clean Title
Just because it landed from Cotonou or America doesn’t mean it’s clean. Some are auction scraps revived by panel beaters. Always ask for auction history or chassis check.

3. Some Cars Are Technically Stolen (But Legally Sold)
No joke. If police ever stops you and checks, you may find yourself explaining what you can’t prove.

4. Odometer Lies Are a Culture
That “low mileage” is often adjusted. I’ve seen a 2010 Camry magically showing 38,000km. LOL. Use tools or get an expert to verify.

5. Some Dealers Don’t Know Jack About the Car’s Health
They just wash, shine, and smile. That’s all. Your best defense? Bring your own mechanic or use a checklist before parting with money.

6. First Body? Who Dash Monkey Banana?
Everybody says it’s "First Body" until you scrape paint and discover otherwise.

7. Car Verification is Your Shield
Simple things like Police vehicle check, VIN lookup, or stolen status check can save you from regret.

Since that day, I made it a mission to learn how car sellers think, how to verify, how to inspect, and how to price-down confidently. I’ve saved friends and colleagues hundreds of thousands using these tips.

If you’re planning to buy a car soon—be guided. Don’t rush because of shine and rims. Buy with sense.

If you want, I can even share my personal checklist and online tool links for proper car checks. Just comment “Checklist” below and I’ll drop it publicly.

Let’s stop being victims.

Na since 2 months ago School fees way I won pay don dey inside my account, I for don transfer to the school if no be say I dey take am collect daily interest.

Avoid third mainland bridge with your speed of you don't want to dash government 50k

Lagos to Okuta in Oyo State.

I encountered the same issue. When I called customer service I was told to ignore the vin not valid error and proceed with the registration. My tinted permit was approved. Team DIY

vivalavida:

i have applied for my car via virtual verification and have gooten the permit.
i am trying to help a colleague do his own and everytime i put in all the details and click on submit, i keep getting VIN not valid. i have run the vin on www.epicvin.com and it is correct. i have used chatgpt to verify the vin and it is correct. what can be the issue?

Mshad662:

I knew someone will point out the state. True true one Nigeria is a scam

I don't know why I like Sanwo Olu. ride on boss

If you want to raise chicken for
your personal consumption and
sell a crate to your neighborhood
store every other day, simply buy 30
point of lay hens.

30 hens will give you average of 25
eggs everyday and will consume about
One bag of feed in one week.

You'll be getting about 7 crates every week.

Even if you keep 2 crates per week for
family consumption, the remaining 5
crates can be sold to buy their feed and
medication.

At the end of their laying period, you recover
your initial capital you utilized to buying them at point of lay POL, when you sell them of as old layers.

It's thus a win, win.

30 will give average of 15 eggs daily but 25 eggs

Mariangeles:
Op, are you by any chance, trying to discourage people from raising their own chickens for eggs? 😌

I am discouraged already. I was thinking to do average of 60 layers so I can get half crate daily since they lay once in 24hrs but the Op gave estimate for 10 layers and the cost is discouraging

chidiokay:
And who your Pity don help, Does El rufai sound like someone waiting for Pity donation, so becos he applauded Tinubu we should not condemn oppression and intimidation of Opposition from FG

at whose detriment las last, some of you just carry Mty head

Of course pity helps and it's not for everyone. Btw do you think a politician like El rufai will send you if he wasn't sidelined. Dey play

Ikemba007:
Pls, this is not all about El-Rufai. This is about Nigeria.

Sure I understand you fellow comrade but we need to be careful, not every "Tom, Dic.k, and Harry" is worth our support

Imagine me a pro APC. I resemble set awon helinues for your eyes?

Next time try to go though post/history even if it's for 5 secs before jumping into conclusion.

Proudlyomonna:
Guy go sit down one place[b],you be pro APC supporter[/b].

Anybody that can impact sending this total disgrace, abomination and CALAMITY back to the hell he crawled out from has the blessings of Nigerians. Tpain own Shegebanzia and bad governance nor be watin any normal person supposed dey play politics with.
Has the Country ever seen anything close to this total disgrace called Tpain? The man is the greatest threat to doing business in Nigeria,why do you Apc shameless supporters make excuses for a man who is the biggest stumbling block to the survival of SMEs in your own Country?

Zombism is not Patriotism.

They helped him rig,if they can take him out they will be doing Nigerians a big favor.

didymario7:
I agree with you. He is only playing victim because he is not in power.

You are smart unlike the other guy ranting on my mention

El-Rufai doesn't deserve pity. Remember he applauded Tinubu when he said this quote "Grab it snatch it and run away with it."

Mr Ambode don miss being a political office holder.

They should not worry. The 2026 tax policy will reset their brain

Maybe the seun thinks those controversial moniker like helinues, yarimo and their likes are good for traffic, little does he know honest members will notice and not take nairaland serious on a long run.

NairalandForumo:
no, the mods are joining to delete comments on targeted accounts and putting the blame on bots, at some point you could not criticize Tinubu and the entire APC without getting a ban.

I have told you guys as long as you people keep using this platform to play politics, you guys will keep going round the circle, if you guys were to be fair, there are accounts here that should have been closed permanently, and if such accounts keep coming up you keep closing them, those accounts that are politically sponsored to drive hate and division.

but no, you guys are leaving them and trying to stifle opposing voices speaking the truth...

Then I would have sacked Mynd44 a long time ago because he is clearly partisan and biased (sorry to say).

The truth is as long as you people keep playing politics which is breeding injustice on this platform you people will keep having problems...

I doubt 20M is sufficient

Igbo no good o. E go tell for your lungs and skin. Especially your face. Just see Burna boy face

Softmirror:
I am also a content creator ooooooooo. But, but, but...

No need for too much "But", we understand u and helinues dey the same category keep it up

Everything in Nigeria always increase in price that's why I didn't take the CNG conversion serious

kpankpangolo:
Nobody cares. We’ve seen the picture a hundred times.

No information is stale.

S21 and screen issues Na 5 and 6. Better abandon the phone move on

My thoughts exactly. Any girl that tries it will become side chick to all her boyfriends
