Previous thread https://www.nairaland.com/7666235/multichoice-increases-subscription-rates-dstv

Based on the new pricing, the average rate per month for all the packages is about $18. With 25M subscribers in Nigeria alone, DSTV pockets about $450M per month. That's $5.4B per annum, in Nigeria alone and they are in other markets.

We cannot tell what their monthly expenses are, but no matter how high, DSTV is still churning out huge profits and should be considerate to its customers.

Bearing in mind that it commenced operations in Nigeria in 1995 which is 28 years ago, the company would have broken even and should thus be reasonable with its pricing.

It's not DSTV's fault though, it is because it's virtually a monopoly. Na why dem dey do anyhow, plus, una law makers sef dey collect raba, afterall, the likes of Tacha and Mercy Eke must buy house for Lekki, nack am Range Rover join. So indirectly, na we subscribers dey buy those toys for the girls. It is well.

Hear her shouting "...We are still legally married", "We are separated"....

So he should press PAUSE and put his life on hold because you are processing your divorce?

This gender sha, they are just a confused lot.

Good day everyone. I'll try to update this thread as we progress on the farm. A passionate journey for me as i embark on livestock farming, mainly goats and some cows.
As you can see, we've started some work.

May Fulani herdsmen never happen to your farm by God's grace. You will reap all the efforts you have sown.

Have you been on Ig recently?
You need to see the elegant ,very pretty woman her husband was/is sleeping with her best friend.

A man that is not disciplined will leave a goddess and follow razz and ugly woman.
Check some promiscuous men and their wives.

JayZ cheated on Beyonce.
Ay cheated on Mabel.
Tuface
Davido.

Abeg how woman want take fine and clean reach again?

You have said it all.....No matter how pretty a woman is, at some point, men get fed up and want another taste. You will even be amazed by standard of women they go for, very low compared to their women.

Case in point: Chris Brown does not give a f**k about Rihanna that so many men around the world are dying for.

Sad thing is, after all said and done, they'd say "It's a man's world".

Olarewaju89:


Let be honest, they have really try.
Nobody believe they can even qualify for top 4 let alone to be in number one in the EPL with those giant club like man city and co.

True, they have really tried and need to be commended, but my brother, in the world of champions, it's either you are number 1 or nothing. The winner 🏆 takes it all.

Bahamas95:
Rice.

I just love and enjoy eating rice from childhood. I don't care about the type, be it jollof, fried, coconut, banga, concoction etc. I will eat it if it's tasty.

I don't always feel comfortable if I haven't eaten rice in a day..... Even if I don't eat swallow for 1wk I won't miss it, but I must eat rice everyday.

You will never walk alone

OGHENAOGIE:
go and ask hundeyin... Ok...

Please, who is Hundeyin? Is he related to Bill Clinton? I guess not, because his name sounds African. I really don't understand your point.

Kindly help with an answer to my question, please. We need to put naysayers to shame. You elders and knowledgeable ones should always please help clarify issues.

OGHENAOGIE:
like I said no explanation ll quench ur curiosity believe what you want and Happy wailing...

Why are you so quick to assume every other person but you is wailing?

I asked you a very simple question and expect an answer because I like to engage in intelligent conversations.

Again, please help confirm if Bill Clinton holds a Nigerian passport, since according to you "Bill Clinton is citizen of Nigeria by honor"

Please don't insult me, I never insulted you. Just answer my question, so we can put naysayers to shame.

wonder233:
You started with the lighter note.
So, that next paragraph should have been. "On a serious note"...

True. Will modify it right away. Thanks.

N300K in 4 months? That's 75K a month. You are not doing badly....but my friend, you better go back to gambling, in that field, you at least have chances of turning a profit, playing bet9ja with N300K, you still have higher chances of winning, but you see, in this olosho business, na losses all the way, no hope of winning.

Edited- On a lighter serious note, please stop it. The best way to stop a bad habit is by taking it a day at a time. Don't do it today, don't tomorrow, don't the day after, and before you know it, you would have done a week, a month, a year, a decade....

Best wishes.

OGHENAOGIE:
Bill Clinton is citizen of Nigeria by honor but whatever the case bitter souls like u ll wail till eternity no matter the explanation...

Does Bill Clinton hold a Nigerian passport? I'd like to know please. Thank you Sir.

Football is big business, whether League 1, 2, 3, 6 or 10.

Congrats in advance to Alhaji Dangote, aka AGIP (Any Government In Power).

Imagine! No traceable income? People are really funny, you think being Minister of state for labor is Keyamo’s first job?

Free speech doesn’t mean you should be stupid. Imagine, already calling him a common thief. SMH

I met a lawyer 10 years ago at Novotel PH (he’s Igbo), man represents at least 3 foreign firms in Nigeria. Man made at least N1b representing them (10+ years ago o). He’s even in the board of a major oil multinational.

Law pays very well all over the world, don’t underrate these lawyers.

Hate him or not, Keyamo is a household name in Nigeria. You can’t name 20 lawyers in Nigeria without mentioning Keyamo. Yes, I said so

Very true, Keyamo is a household name in Nigeria, let's leave partisan politics aside. I don't support him or his druggie boss, but put some respect on Keyamo's name, although he fall our hands by jumping ship, but that is a story for another day. Make we free am on top this mata.

njikoka:
Even Somalia evacuated their citizens ...
Nigerians now go to Sudan to study

You can guess what they are going there to study. Let's just hope that the Nigerian Government would conscientiously keep records of the profiles of these newly bred potential te*rrowrist seeking to be evacuated from Khartoum, Sudan.

My immediate elder sister is a British trained Lawyer and own her very own house in UK thanks to Mortgage

What is there to defend in a $300,000 house if not poverty killing some people's life , dream and mentality

Your sister bought it on mortgage and would probably pay over the next 25-30 years, Keyamo bought his with hard currency; there is a huge difference bro.

Don't forget, you can't easily sell your residential house. So forget the increase in value. 👀

True, but you can use it to borrow money from a bank, it would serve as collateral and the fair value will determine the amount of your facility (loan).

"...Another reason I am not passionate about football is why will 22 grown men with good salaries and weekly allowances, who live in the best mansions and eat the best food, come together on a certain day to play for 90 minutes and end up playing 1-0 or 0-0. It’s bad for punters, so, football is not for me...."

Funny but very true....

Gamble responsibly.

Lol
If your boyfriend has any sense he'll listen to what his dog is trying to tell him and do away with you. Dogs are very perceptive and can smell evil from a mile away.

Infact I think you should do your boyfriend a favor and leave him alone. If you truly love that guy you'll leave him instantly before you ruin his life.

The dog has already sensed this, that's why it keeps doing any and everything within it's power to keep you away from that guy.

My people, don't ever underrate your dog's warning oh. Dogs wey dey see spirits. Hai!!!.

There are true stories of dogs refusing to move inside a hunted house their owners just bought and packed into. Hell! In most cases the dogs keep barking, trying to warn the owner that there's something strange in the house. Sadly they can't talk, so most people don't listen.

You suggesting that your boyfriend should kill the dog even confirms my theory that you're pure evil.
When evil spirits invade an area, some dogs smell them out and start barking aggressively. In most cases these evil spirits kill the dogs so they can carry out their evil in peace. This is the exact move you're suggesting to your boyfriend.
The Classic evil spirit move.

Oh Lord open the eyes of this girl's boyfriend to see and do the right thing.

PS: this is just a joke....

Or is it?

Modified: FTC.
This year seems to be mine.

I dedicate this FTC to all the loyal dogs out there, constantly looking out for their owners. And on behalf of all boyfriends, I want to send this message to the entire girlfriend community.
We love our dogs. Yes. We love them more than we love you. You're never gonna be able to compete with our dogs. And no, we won't kill our dogs just to keep you around. So to all girlfriends, for the love of DOG, for GODsake, be a good sport, know your place, stay in your lane, and stop trying to come between us and our dogs. Because it's never gonna end well for y'all.
Peace ✌️...or war. Whichever you choose

Well said. Thread closed.

May God deliver the boyfriend, guess he knows the lurking danger but just wants to straff a few times before discharging her. He's taking a big risk though.

Elxandre:
A hustler shouldn't put 8m in a dormant house.
The 8m can even even generate more than rent in a fixed deposit not to talk of investing in a business.

N8M fixed at an average annual interest rate of 16% is over a million naira. You can pay your rent with this interest, but your N8M remains stagnant and is not growing in value.

Conversely, a decent apartment built at the time with N8M would have appreciated in value. Question is, would the increase in value have been more than the interest generated had it been fixed?

So, it's more of the question: which came first? The chicken or the egg?

Such investment decision hovers around one's strategy, are you for income generation or capital appreciation?

"...This earned him the rank of one of Forbes Magazine’s ten wealthiest people in the world...."

Criminals or alleged ones, get rated in world-class magazines, supporters of a particular Politician in Nigeria should take note.

respect80:
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.

You have all the details of the transaction, please visit the nearest UBA branch to formally lodge a complaint, the issue will be investigated and if found to be true, a lien can be placed on the customer's account. Hopefully, he hasn't withdrawn the funds and gone incommunicado.

Say NO to drugs and gamble responsibly.

Kobojunkie:
Do you mean he has not equally advised some women to continue in adulterous marriages? What is good for the goose is equally good for the gander.

Weeelllll, that remains an assumption.

They should go there separate ways.

This one is just digging her own grave, so her husband will see this video and do what exactly? Pat her on the back? You are spitting trash on your wedding day, if Bros begin misbehave now, you go say men are scum, or na your village people dey do you. The brain in that her head definitely needs a reset.

abbey621:
His name was associated because he got involved with them, as an accountant and financial advisor he handled money from various clients. Tinubu was a party boy in the 70s and 80s, he was well known in Chicago and definitely had close ties to the big men back then who dealt with drugs and fraud..... In fact 70% of Nigerians in Chicago back then were mixed up in such things. The mistake most of the haters are making is thinking the U.S case against him had anything to do with him being a drug dealer, case was all about money laundering, baba was their washer nothing more, nothing less!

Thanks. This is the kind of mature and intelligent responses I like.

Even the guy I asked for clarification could not answer me in this way and manner. He stylishly resorted to insults.

I might not support Tinubu because of his alleged plenty baggages, but I respect you and people like you can make one switch sides easily.

Jagaban remains a politician even his enemies and detractors cannot help but respect and admire. He is indeed an enigma. He is a political maverick who is just in his own class.

Best wishes to Nigeria.

Look at the damage adultery has done to a family and union of 22 years. Shameful.

The CBN should scrap this crazyy idea immediately. It is indeed counterproductive, the Bank should put on its thinking cap and generate funds from other allowable sources.

Image123:
i shed light on reality, not fables. The reality on ground is that we have a president elect who will be sworn in as president in less than 40 days. People should stop wild goose chases that lead to nowhere and make progress instead of the long bickerings and wailings that help noone.

Thanks for your feedback.

I have not said that we do not have a President-elect whose inauguration would hold in 40 days time.

All I am asking is why his name was associated with drugs in the first place. Whether he was guilty or not, is another story.

I am sure your name has never been associated with Armed Robbery, there is a reason for that. So why is Tinubu's own different? I just need to know, or am l asking for much about a man who is Nigeria's leader?

aikyg:
She ended a four-year-old relationship at 18. Meaning she was like 14 when they started dating. Crazy!

Brilliant analysis that can be easily overlooked.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2hppHc_wFU

In a podcast video that has gone viral, a young lady commented that she broke a 4yr relationship with a "faultless" man for no reason. The story flips as she concludes that she's better than the woman her ex later married.

Watch full the video above.

I took time to watch the video and to sum it up, I conclude that she is a CONFUSED fellow, hiding under the pretext of wanting Freedom at the time. She had better leave Chuks alone to enjoy his marriage, else, Okafor's law will be sharpaly and fully activated.

Nigerian students are everywhere. We are like Chinese and Indians when it comes to migration. But why go to a place like SUDAN for higher education?
