Politics / Re: Sudan : Nigerian Airforce Finally Arrived Egypt To Evacuate Nigerians (photos) by Wisefellow(m): 11:22am On Apr 30, 2023
Let me start by commending Air Peace for showing FG right way to serving Nigerians.

The government realised her failure to airlift stranded Nigerians in Sudan late and will not allow Air Peace take the glory as usual.

However, it is better late than never! We should endeavour to do what is right at all time swiftly.

Well done to FG and Air Peace for service to Nigerians

Car Talk / Re: Lagos State Number-Plate Recognition Camera Caught Man Driving With Expired Pape by Wisefellow(m): 9:34pm On Apr 28, 2023
The camera also caught my plate number few days ago, accussed me of driving with expired insurance and fined me N20,000 as first offender which I contested via their website and in person at VIS headquarters.

I was cleared because I presented the old insurance doc. which was still valid only on that day as the last day of expiration with the new one I paid for on the same day which covers till 2024.

Fine was cleared and I am not an offender!

Car Talk / Re: NAICOM Increases Third-party Vehicle Insurance From N5000 To N15,000 by Wisefellow(m): 5:14pm On Dec 25, 2022
rad8:


Why should anyone take an action? It's all for your good. if you understand the basic principle of insurance, you will know that it is essentially a pool where people contribute their premiums to meet the needs of those who might make a claim (and also to form a reserve to meet later claims and the insurance company's profit). Now, there will be trouble if the amount contributed is no longer sufficient to pay claims as the cost of replacing parts or vehicles/ buildings has since skyrocket. A car worth N1.2m in the past is now going for N3m and above.

I hope you now understand why no one will raise any voice or do anything. I also hope you are not one of those ppl who would say anything without first researching about it.

Anyone who wants to contradict me should know I have an Msc in this.


I beg to disagree that it is for the good of Nigerians!

Nigerians have greatly lost confidence in Insurance, compared to banking, as a result of past sharp practises regarding claims. Also, people are subjected to unnecessary T&Cs hidden ambiguously under contract policy signed by respective customers.

If government had not made Third Party Insurance or comprehensive insurance policy compulsory, majority of car owners will not buy into it. This is because insurance in Nigeria is not to mitigate against loss as claimed but for profit making avenue. Most insurance sales personnel sell policies not based on needs but benefit.

Can NAICOM tell Nigerians the total amount realized by insurance companies from automobile insurance policies ( TP/ Comprehensive) sold in the last 10years? How much claim was made during the period under review? What is the customer experience rating by policy holders? What have the insurance companies done with premiums collected during the same period?
Car Talk / Re: NAICOM Increases Third-party Vehicle Insurance From N5000 To N15,000 by Wisefellow(m): 9:54am On Dec 25, 2022
This is one of many ways govt. steal officially from the citizens using NAICOM as the regulatory and supervisory agency for insurance companies. Insurance should not be mandatory but optional.

The increment should be rejected by all Nigerians because there is no concrete justification for it. A lazy govt. will always look for cheap and easy ways of exploiting the people without corresponding growth and development of human and infrastructures in the state.

The third party insurance, as far as I know, is free monies for looting because I do not remember any insurance claim given over these past years especially on third party policies unlike comprehensive insurance policy.

NO JUSTIFICATION FOR THIS INCREMENT FROM N5000 TO N15,000.

People need to watch the interview he granted before taking a stand.

I have seen it and summarily, Man. Utd should improve in all ramification, off pitch and on pitch.

Ronaldo have been to different leagues, exposed and can compare things across.

Car Talk / Re: Lagos Installs More Cameras To Track Vehicle Certificates, Road Worthiness by Wisefellow(m): 10:14am On Sep 19, 2022
I applaud the state government on this move, however, subjecting private vehicles to mandatory test as pre-requisite to issuance of road worthiness certificate is unnecessary.

Private vehicle owners are responsible and do carryout maintenance on their vehicles compared to public/commercial vehicles. The commercial vehicles should go through mandatory test because of high number of passengers and weight of goods conveyed daily.

Lack of adequate testing centres lead to long queues of private vehicles waiting to undergo test and a lot of people, whom have done the test, complained about time loss in the process.

The state government should focus more on fixing the bad roads causing traffic gridlock, provide more test centres, mandate commercial vehicles and drivers to test, sensitize traffic officials and enlighten all road users on traffic rules and keeping the road safe.

Unfortunately, the traffic laws are often disobeyed by law enforcement officers ( Lagos State Task Force, LASTMA, Army, Air-force, Navy, NCS, Immigration, NSCDC and NPS) ranging from driving against traffic( one-way), break traffic light rules, use of ricket and unworthy vehicles without trafficator lights on the road without being arrested because they are above the law!

What happens to supremacy of law? Are the rich and mighty not bound by the same laws? Does equality of laws and punishment applicable to all? The laws are created by people for all for a better society, however, it is skewed in favour of the rich and against the poor.

Fines, community service, seizure are amongst the penalities for traffic offenders. However, there are stages of applying the penalties. First time offenders can be fined while serial offenders can be penalized beyond fines. The last option ought to be vehicle forfeiture and auction.

Instead of starting from the cause-to-effect methodology of solving societal menace, the Lagos state government did not deem it fit to fix the bad roads causing traffic gridlocks, vehicle damages and increase in cost of maintenance. The traffic enforcement agents are quick to arrest civillians and not uniform men, the poor and not the rich who violate traffic laws by accident or deliberately. Accidentally, if your vehicle break down suddenly on the highways, LASTMA officials will arrest and charge you for traffic obstruction without considering the induvidual state of mind and effort. Quite unfair!

When government fails to deliver quality service and good governance to citizenries, what punishment is given to such government? When government decided to apply the laws skewedly, what happens to rule of equality? When enforcement officers lie against civilians in order to reap off, their words versus the other, what justification do they have to nail individuals?

Until the government, agencies and citizens are all ready to do what is right, societal vices shall be on the rise! Let government make laws without selfishness, shun corruption and mismanagement on all adminstrative and capital projects to be delivered, let the laws made be supreme and equal to all, justice and progress are adopted for better society, eduucation and continuous enlightenment of citizenry is a must and punishment of offenders without discrimination is paramount to a good governance.

To God be the glory! I witnessed the very day this multi-billion naira project, Trinity Towers, was first announced and proposed to the congregation at City of David. The fund raising kick started with Pastor Idowu donating N500,000,000 on behalf of himself and family! I was only able to contribute N1000, not as a member of the church but a support officer working for my company and being a muslim that was impressed with such a visionary project.

I rejoice with RCCG, City of David, and well meaning Nigerians for completion and realization of such wonderful project to the glory of God, to change and better lives positively.
Investment / Why Go Through Government Before One Can Construct/ Fix A Bad Road In Nigeria? by Wisefellow(m): 3:34pm On Jun 29, 2022
This madness must stop! How can this monopolistic- retrogressive government policy be abolished?

So many bad and inaccessible roads can be found around our communities, local government and states in Nigeria causing unnecessary traffic congestion, damage vehicles, increasing cost of repair and maintenance of vehicle as well as the psychological torture Nigerians go through on daily basis.

Kind-hearted individuals, corporations and non- government organisations will like to fix some of these bad roads but government, at all levels, would warn against the contruction directly. Indirectly, government would insist that funds for such contruction should be sent to government to oversee the contruction. Why? When embezzlement of funds and missappopriation with sub-standard tendencies are not far from officials.

Please why must government insist that all road construction must go through approval or be done by them only? Such a bad policy is dragging road development backward in Nigeria.

Enough of this nonsense and selfish government policies!

Romance / Lack Of Companionship Leads To Loneliness And Depression! Let's Help by Wisefellow(m): 12:10pm On Jun 03, 2022
I have read and heard many stories of people that attempted and committed suicide owing to depression and loneliness from heartbreak, unfound love and painful guilt. Killing self is not a reasonable and right solution to your worries but reach out to someone.

The act of speaking to someone can and will give a glimpse of hope for better lasting solution to your worries. Words of encouragement serves like a shoulder to lean- on, restore confidence and embrace self worth that allows the brain to rethink, reconsider and pivot individual in-question to a state of self realization and result actualization.

At different time, I've had the priviledge of being helpful by talking and assisted two people out of suicide thought due to depression, joblessness and relationship heartbreak. Certainly, we humans do under-estimate ourselves especially when we are confronted with issues and problems, forgetting there is always light at the end of the tunnel. In essence, we watch out for one another especially when a shoulder is needed at these trying times.

The unfortunate case of a 47year old Accountant in Lagos comes to mind. Likewise, a young man whom jumped into Lagos lagoon, just to mention few, were unlucky not to have seen people to help them out of their worrisome situation . Some people have been rescued from attempting suicide on the third mainland bridge, Lagos by security operatives and passerby. Life is sacred and should be protected to serve its purpose.

I am appealing to anyone in a state of confusion, depression and loneliness to reach and voice out to someone, especially a family member, because a problem shared is a problem half-solved. Perhaps you do not have a family member, which is highly unlikely; you can reach out... Remember, no man is an island and therefore, we need one another to actualize our dreams and true happiness.

Here is a notice outside the above discuss to women of virtue on this platform!

A brother, in his 40s, needs a matured, understanding muslim woman for a serious relationship that would metamorphous to a lifetime union.

Please, let me state clearly, I do not have money to give anyone and no money is expected from anyone as regards this post. Likewise, no evil or bad intention whatsoever is behind this post. It is, purely, a kind gesture to assist people achieve or meet people of mutual affection for forever bliss.

God bless and stay out of trouble!
