Nairaland / General / Nigerians Frown At The New N750 PHCN Service Charge. by Cornel88(m): 8:48am On Aug 31, 2013 |
The problems PHCN is causing Nigerians have gotten to an alarming state. If you are a visitor to the country, you would not need to be told that the country is having a serious issue with power supply. While majority are complaining of serious power problems, some are still saying that there is no problem and that power is being dispensed equitably. These are some of the opinions as compiled by SATURDAY VANGUARD. The sector is epileptic — Arthur Oguezeh The inconsistent nature of PHCN service in the country is so bad that some experts have described it to be epileptic in nature. This has been one of the major reasons why most industrialists are afraid to invest in the country and it is making the rate of unemployment to be very high. In my area in Ikotun,Lagos State, though they say that they are sharing the supply, we cannot still differentiate between when it is our turn and when it is not because, it is complete blackout all through. Power supply is not consistent. It is so bad. It’s not that bad here— Ogeri Ndume We don’t really have much problem in the area where I am staying. But other parts of the State are... www.vanguardngr.com/2013/08/nigerians-frown-at-the-new-n750-phcn-service-charge/ Express your own feelings here. |

Nairaland / General / Russian Court Convicts Deceased Lawyer Of Tax Evasion. by Cornel88(m): 4:43pm On Jul 11, 2013 |
A Moscow court has found late whistle- blowing lawyer Sergei Magnitsky and his former boss guilty of tax evasion. Magnitsky, who worked for the Hermitage Capital investment fund, died in pretrial detention at age 37 after being allegedly beaten and denied medical treatment. It is the first time Russia has put a dead man on trial, deepening concerns over human rights and the rule of law in the country. Magnitsky was accused of tax evasion in 2008 after exposing a $230 million tax scam implicating Russian police and government officials. High-Profile Case Magnitsky's 11-month detention and his death in 2009 sparked an international outcry, with the United States imposing sanctions on Russian officials involved in the case. The court on July 11 also found the head of Hermitage Capital, William Browder, guilty of evading about $17 million in taxes. He was sentenced to nine years in prison. The U.S.-born British investor, who was tried in absentia, has spearheaded an international campaign to expose corruption… www.rferl.mobi/a/25042605.html |

Celebrities / Stop Harrassing Celebrities For Funds.- Juliet Ibrahim To Ojb's Camp. by Cornel88(m): 10:22am On Jun 28, 2013 |
Apparently fed up with all the insinuations about celebrities not showing enough support for OJB, Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim has put in her own two cents on the matter. OJB is currently very ill and his camp has said that the legendary producer needs a $100, 000 fro a kidney transplant. Juliet Ibrahim however, is suggesting that a kidney transplant doesn’t cost more that 50,000 USD, and that there are cheaper alternatives. According to the light skinned actress, she owns a kidney foundation and so knows about these things. She also added that those in charge of the fundraising activities should reach out to the right people and stop harassing celebrities for funds. www.hiphopworldmagazine.com/2013/06/27/stop-harassing-celebrities-for-funds-juliet-ibrahim-tells-ojb/ |

Someone died in a car accident, and another man, who was nowhere near the scene is now blamed for the accident and deaths, all in the name of tales-by-moonlight believe called "rituals". And the media actually reported this, and some people buy it hook line and sinker. At this rate, it will take Nigeria/Nigerians over 100 years to get civilized, big shame!Thank you.

Again,this man deserves attention from his government. He has served the nation well, won titles for his country. Now,he want to cap his career with this "historic fight",except if there's something i'm yet to read,he deserves to be listened to by his president like most normal nation. I guess ours is obviously abnormal. We'l rather pump billions to build a house for First lady,have minister made deal of 56triln than spend millions to hold a fight so desperately important to a common Bash Ali. Do we even "give a damn" about each other b4? FG should listen to him as a citizen as they should to any man out there.. Yes! I agree that he should be listen to, but he shouldn't be given the chance to commit sucide. Who ever should send this man to the ring should be considered a wicked person. |

Celebrities / You Can't Cook-angry Fans Tell Ini Edo After Posting Kitchen Pictures. by Cornel88(m): 7:06pm On May 19, 2013 |
Maybe if Ini Edo had known that posting a picture of her in the kitchen cooking what looks like spaghetti would bring her insults, she would not have released the photograph online. But rather than getting commendations, angry fans used the opportunity to vent their anger on the actress. “Mtchewwww! So disgusting! What kind of yama-yama food is dis? So this is what u eat everyday & u re proud to show it off. See how messy d environment is jst because of common spag,” an angry fan on NFC posted. Another wrote, “Ini dearest brown sugar, that looks like dog food o, abi you cooked it for ‘ginny’ to come chop? Anyways, if that dog food is for ‘ginny’, you need to add ketchup!” “Goshhh, see dirt everywhere! Just 4 ordinary spaghetti,” a fan also wrote. “heiii, ini dis one na otorogbagbue nne efi, my 9months old baby go reject dis one now,” wrote another fan. Some others went on to vent their angers on the beautiful actress. Some of their comments are presented below; “what type of food is this? u know how to dress well and look good but u don’t know how to cook good food and clean ur kitchen well while cooking,” “I want to vomit oooooo. Ini pls as much as i am your fan, i have to tell you the truth. You just cook r*****h.” “I can’t stop laffing too oooo. What is this biko? Oh no! Pls take dis s**t down, it looks so unappealing.” “Ini, which kin portorportor food b dis kwa?, very irritating. So, na dis tin u dae cook n chop 4 house or na junk jus make u blow like dis? Like sae na me, I for no upload dis kin tin oh, u 4 upload d one wae u sabi na.” “You really disappoint me. How can you show the world that you cook this food. The kitchen is very dirty. You only dress outside but inside is na**y. No joking, please go and learn how to cook in a way people will feel like eating.” www.informationng.com/2013/05/you-cant-cook-angry-fans-tell-ini-edo-after-posting-kitchen-pictures.html
