Nairaland / General / Re: 15 Most Used Cliche/slangs On Nairaland by Jok3r(m): 7:58am On Aug 24, 2016 |
DrMaths: Nairaland is one funny place where people come to read latest happenings and to cool off. The most interesting part on the forum are the comments, where you get to read other peoples view on a particular matter and either respond or contribute. Now, the juicy parts of the comments are the hilarious ones, some of the comments are so funny, you can even crack a rib while laughing. Personally, i prefer scrolling through comments on nairaland than buying ticket to attend comedy shows. Thus, the following list came from closed observation on some of the most used cliche or slangs (as the case may be) that appear as comment on nairaland threads. From the list to the greatest Leggo 15. Iranu Abasa Ever since Lil kesh used it in a song, nairalanders have decided to to partake in it. its mostly used when describing things that are unpleasant .
14. Have you Blame GEJ Today This one is mostly found on threads where Lai Mohammed is relating the present Economy crisis to the immediate past administration
13. Who U EPP Who dollar Epp, Who Pilgrimage Epp, Who Bleep Don Epp. Olamide surely gave nairalanders a comment kick starter.
12. End Time End Time Baby, End time Girlfriend, End Time Pastors, End Time data Plan, End Time Mod. Just name it, naliralanders will End Time It.
11. GEJ My Hero Temitemi started this campaign sometime last year, till date it still rocks on any thread where GEJ is being Exaclted.
10. Wasteners I'll Pass
9. IPOB Youth On nairanland, any monicker that support PDP or is Anti-the present administration is labelled an IPOB youth.
8. Change the Change you see this on threads where it seems as if the wailers are winning the war.
7. Ugandan Brothers I'll Still Pass
6. Lala and Snake You will surely see this one on any snake thread that hits the frontpage. i fear for those moniker that use this one sha , if not because Lalasticlala is gentle, imagine if it was someone like Jim Iyk that is Lalasticlala.
5. Guess Who Is Wailing? This one comes up when a well known Supporter of the Ruling party starts wailing. Some will even go as far as warning other Wailers not to give Wailers Form to the Repentant Soul.
4. Pictures You Will Relate With This One Started As a child's Play until Smellymouth and Susan404 started adding spices to it. Even Photoshoot used it as a campaign strategy during the Mr Nairaland Competition.
3. Kenya and sex related news Be Like And picture of the man with his two index fingers pointing forward will do the magic.
2. Afonjo Brothers Still Passing!!!
1. I Came Here to Check Names I present to you the "NAME CHECKERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA" (NCAN). This one is found on virtually all the threads that hit the frontpage on nairaland these days. The good thing about the monikers that used this one is that they have branches everywhere in the universe, included Mars and Jupiter.

Phones / Re: Nigerians To Pay 9% Tax On Calls, SMS, MMS, Data, Others by Jok3r(m): 12:15pm On Aug 18, 2016 |
ericuzor: By Naomi Uzor Speaking at a stakeholders’ meeting organised by the Lagos Chambers of Commerce and Industry, LCCI, on CST bill which seeks to levy nine per cent on subscribers for the use of the various communication services, Shittu said the outcome of deliberations on the bill would form the basis of his advice to the President.
The services include voice call, SMS, MMS, Data usage from telecommunication service providers, internet service providers and Pay TV Stations.
He noted that introduction of new taxes without harmonising existing ones would put pressure on the country’s tax system thereby making it unattractive to investors.
According to the minister”This may also be counter-productive in the long run for our targets on broadband penetration. Our ICT Roadmap gives fresh impetus for implementing existing policies and reviewing any that is inimical to the growth of the sector. My focus on any tax regime will be to align any process that will stimulate the economy and also ensure that the tax system is efficient by widening the tax net. It is also to create an effective framework for tax compliance to protect the poor and vulnerable in the society who nonetheless have to use telecoms services for social inclusion and financial services.”
He said that the government’s efforts at increasing its revenue made the bill worthy of consideration.
“I have been reliably informed that the projected earnings from this effort is over N20 billion every month, which is an attraction to the government for funding our budget deficits. I must be quick to say that this government has a human face twined around its decisions,” Shittu said. The minister said that the government would provide an enabling environment for the ICT and telecommunication sector to thrive through the enactment of relevant legislation.
Mrs Nike Akande, President of LCCI called for a friendly tax environment especially in view of the difficult business environment.
“We know that the government is seeking to diversify its revenue base in the light of dwindling oil revenue. But it is also true that the private sector players will like to see an investment friendly tax environment, especially in the light of the prevailing high cost of doing business in the country. It is important to balance these two positions.”
Mr Bimbo Atilola, Chairman, LCCI Taxation and Commercial Law Committee said that the bill negated the principle of neutrality in taxation, as it would affect consumers’ behaviour through reduced spending. He appealed that the passage of the bill be suspended to allow for rapid growth of the telecoms sector, in line with the Nigerian National Broadband Plan.
“If the bill must be passed into law, NASS should make the telecoms sector exempted under VAT Act and the rate reduced from nine per cent to five per cent. There is a need to protect the ultimate interest of the final consumers of the service,” Atilola said.
Mr Taiwo Oyedele, Partner, PriceWaterCoopers said that the N20 billion monthly projected revenue from the bill was unrealistic and based on assumption.
According to him, increased taxation will reduce the consumption pattern of consumers, lower investment in the sector, thereby translating to reduced revenue.
Mr Teniola Olusola, President, Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria (ATCON) said that their members were overburdened with multiple taxation.
He urged the government to discontinue the bill, adding that it would reduce inflow of FDI into the sector, reduce subscribers level of data consumption and affect contribution of the sector to GDP. Engr Gbenga Adebayo, President, Association of Licensed Telecommunication Operators of Nigeria (ALTON) said that the bill if passed into law would retard the growth of the sector.

Politics / Re: Nigerian Man Arrested For Hacking Into Banking System by Jok3r(m): 10:00am On Jul 30, 2016 |
project8:
Suspect, Godwin Onwuneme Udu, has been arrested after hacking into a bank's mailing system and stealing the sum of GH¢25,000.
The suspect identified as Godwin Onwuneme Udu was nabbed at Haatso, Ghana on July 19, 2016 after his hacking stunt.
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Eugene Nyavor , deputy director in-charge of the Unit disclosed that the bank's management, name withheld, was responsible for Udu's arrest before handing him over to the police.
The suspect is alleged to have transferred the cash from a customer's account, into his personal account in a different bank. Udu had been arrested on his way to withdraw the money. Udu is revealed to have been operating with other gang members and have reportedly been involved in another fraud case which is being investigated by the Documentation Fraud Unit at the police headquarter in Accra.
ASP Nyavor, said that the bank had flagged the transfer, mounting surveillance which inadvertently led to Udu's arrest.
The ASP went on to urge other banks to bring in experts who would be in charge of monitoring their control systems, saving them from any other financial losses.
"Bankers must also ensure that they get authorization from customers before huge sums of money are given out, even when the bearer has a check book."
The suspect has been charged for stealing and will be arraigned before the court soon enough.
