tizzdi: Would you mind sharing your findings with the public? I'm particularly interested in knowing what you discovered...as whilst there is a long held belief that these factors play a role, no one to be the best of my knowledge has been able to quantify the extent to which they play a role. 1 Like |
Politics / Re: $9b Judgment: P&ID Chief Names Yar’adua, Lukman, NNPC GMD, 15 Others Behind Cont by Iolo(m): 7:58pm On Sep 01, 2019 |
Iamgrey5: You hit the nail in the right direction. My thoughts have been on the fact that it’s never been stated that P&ID made significant losses from investments made. As far as it’s been stated there has never been significant physical investment in their part. How do you see compensation on the basis of future profits when you’ve made no losses / costs to accrued said profits. I suspect this is one of the judgement debt scams NOI mentioned in her book. Only issue is that a UK court awarded the debt. 3 Likes 1 Share |

shugaboo: Back when I served the state government was luring corpers to stay behind to teach in their schools. Pay was about 65k or 85k...don’t remember exactly now... and there was free accommodation. I know a number of ppl who decided to stayed back for a few years while some are still there with their families now. Is that programme still on? 3 Likes 1 Share |

BrilliantF: You’re right about the weather. It’s two extremes at certain times of the year. Winter jackets, head warmers and gloves in the mornings and nights and then it gets really hot during the day. And then other parts of the year you have to deal with sandstorms. 4 Likes |

One thing that always struck me was the good roads. Even with the landmass of the state, You could drive for two hours from one town to another without seeing pot holes and yet most people there didn’t own cars so the roads were largely empty but for taxis and buses with passengers. 16 Likes 1 Share |

Travel / Re: Nigerian Railway Corporation Allegedly Hired 3 NAF Helicopters To Guard Train by Iolo(m): 11:12pm On May 04, 2019 |
This story doesn’t add up. An helicopter flies way faster and is potentially safer than the train (in terms of being off the ground from kidnappers). The NRC has absolutely no responsibility to incur such costs for a senator. Who will fund it? |
Business / Re: Installation Of World Heaviest Regenerator, RFCC Unit At The Dangote Refinery. by Iolo(m): 8:25am On May 03, 2019 |
I see most people saying “Generator”. This isn’t a generator but a regenerator. Two different things. The regenerator helps to cool hot crude during the refining process. Link below if you want to know more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_heat_exchanger |
Travel / Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Iolo(m): 6:13pm On Apr 17, 2019 |
My passport expires end of December 2019. I intend to apply for a visa sometime in May for a conference that holds in October. Do I need to have at least 6 months validity on my passport to apply for a UK visa? When does this start to count - from the month I apply or my intended arrival date? Can someone explain how this works pls? |

Osagyefo98: Why shouldn’t they pay for their lodging and flight? They requested for an audience with the President and this was granted. This Father Christmas mentality is the reason why corruption continues to thrive, in a country where citizens feel entitled to free money for once they step into ASO rock. Kindly educate me with the names of the sane countries that maintain this practice? Also, are you aware that guests at the White House are given a bill for any food or meals they consume? Any invited guests stay at the presidential lodge and even the president himself pays for his meals. 1 Like |

Apple iPhone 6 Plus with 16GB storage. Scratches on the back due to type of phone case used. Full Disclosure: Screen works but goes off intermittently. It should be changed to enjoy the phone which is why I’m discounting by 20k to sell at 50k rather than 70k. Price: Contact via Whatsapp only: (serious buyers only) Location: Lagos mainland / Ikoyi

Car Talk / Re: For Drivers Only: Who's At Fault Here? Pictures by Iolo(m): 12:06am On Jul 20, 2018 |
I’ll go with B. Facts: 1. There are two lanes in this picture. The green car appearing in one and the silver SUV firmly on the next lane. 2. The red VW Jetta is attempting to change lanes from lane 2 to lane 1. Obersavations 1. Red VW Jetta rightly turned on his pointer informing intent to switch lanes. 2. Silver SUV either did not see this early enough or he did and chose to ignore or react by speeding up. Conclusion VW Jetta is the wrong party here because he did not ensure appropriate clearance on lane 1 before attempting the switch. Turning on ones indicator must be closely followed by maintaining safe distances before changing lanes of at least a cars length. 4 Likes |
