Foreign Affairs / Re: Burkina Faso Issues New Passports Without West African Bloc's Logo by mrBlunt(m): 9:41pm On Sep 05
Hubris is killing Burkina Faso - a country that is daily moving closer to total collapse and fall to the hand of rebels, while the irrationally proud military junta, headed by a stripling forming strong, continues to keep up appearances and get its priorities wrong. Time will tell.

Crime / Re: Amaka Sonnberger Faces Two-Year Jail Term Or Deportation Over Hate Speech by mrBlunt(m): 8:43am On Sep 03
She didn't get the memo. You can only get away with it in Nigeria. In a serious country and law-abiding country like Canada, you only need to be reported and you are cooked.

Religion / Re: Will None Tithers Go To Hell? by mrBlunt(m): 11:35am On Sep 01
I wonder why people claim to be born-again Christians, yet do not know the basic things.

Not paying tithe will not take you to hell.

Accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and believing His finished work on the cross, which is then evidenced by your regeneration, is all that is required for you to make heaven. It is as simple as that.

No other conditions whatsoever. So the claim that failure to pay tithe will condemn you to tell is a lie from the pit of hell itself. Let no man deceive you.

Business / Re: CBN Revokes Heritage Bank’s Licence by mrBlunt(m): 12:47pm On Jun 03
Bail-out, new owners, merger, acquisition...

CBN can't afford to allow any bank fail to the point where depositors will lose a part or whole of their funds. It will step in to save the day.

Nothing will happen to your deposits. The bank will most likely go the way of Coop bank-skye bank-polaris and the likes.

Tuchel is one confused guy. You took out Harry Kane and decided to defend when the game still had more than 20 wins left against a club with history of surprise like Real Madrid. Shior!

Education / Re: English Gurus Pls What Is The Answer To This ?? by mrBlunt(m): 10:24pm On May 02
This is very simple. The use of the tenses will let you know that the daughter was drunk not the mother. "beats" and "was drunk" can't both refer to the mother in this context.
Foreign Affairs / Re: Countries With Highest Number Of Public Holidays by mrBlunt(m): 9:51am On Apr 10
Yes, but I think the post is counting the number of holiday events and not the days observed. This makes it 9 holidays in Nigeria. You get?
If it's by number of days, Nigeria will rise in the ranking. We dey observe 3 days now now.

jhydebaba:
New year day - 1

Good Friday - 1

Easter Monday - 1

Christmas - 1

Boxing Day - 1

Itunu Awe (Eid-filtr) - 2

Ileya (Eid- Mubarak) - 2

Prophet birthday - 1

May day - 1

Independence day - 1

Democracy day - 1

Romance / Re: Hookup Lady And Client In Intense Fight Over Payment Dispute (photos) by mrBlunt(m): 8:23pm On Mar 21
It's actually a hookup gone wrong. The disgraceful video of what transpired is on Facebook and other SM platforms. The guy refused to pay his mistress for whatever reason. Shameless folks everywhere.

Iamicekid:
This isn’t hookup story judging from the picture, the dude has a bicycle so it’s not possible they are having a hookup issue, either the guy mistakenly bashed the girl with him bicycle and her phone or something fell and got spoilt that’s the story here

Sports / Re: Falconets In The Final, Flying Eagles Out Of All African Games Football by mrBlunt(m): 8:21am On Mar 19
See what needless quota system and tribal consideration have done to male football: loading the male team with people from a section of the country in order to achieve a sort of silly balance as their culture would not allow them to be represented in the female team, instead of prioritizing competence. Now the female team is flying and male team is struggling. Shior!

Business / Re: Nestle Nigeria Posts N104bn Loss In 2023, Shareholders Funds Wiped Out by mrBlunt(m): 4:22pm On Feb 28
Pristine664:
This economic problem is everywhere actually.

But Nigerians online love bad news about their country because it makes them feel better about last election so the media push it more to them.

Don't mind them. Things are hard now, but, if the government is truly sincere, it only means the country is going through a transformation process and things will become better and more stable with time.

Nestle and Co have been making huge gains for decades from the Nigerian market and repartriating most of the Fx to their home countries. Fx losses in one year should not be a reason for them to groan and start crying. They should write off the losses against their accumulated reserves. Let their parent companies bring fx too. I believe they cannot consider leaving Nigeria because of this 'minor' loss in one year.

Hello experts in the house, I am planning to do my aluminium windows. Please, can I get quotes for casement windows with burglar proof (16mm) and nets with the following details:

11 windows (1500 x 1200)
3 windows (600 x 1200)
3 windows (600 x 700)

I would appreciate comparative quotes for 16mm and 12mm at current prices to aid my planning and choice making. Thank you.
Business / Re: CBN limits Dollar Purchase From BDCs: $10000 For School Fees, $5000 For Medicals by mrBlunt(m): 5:30pm On Feb 26
skj1377:
The black market will surface again. Reason is 90% of request are not legitimate. So black market rate will be any dollars sources outside official CBN sources . The huge limitation of the dollars in this window will result in a value above N3000 per $. In other words harmonization of Forex window will never be achieved in Nigeria irrespective of value of Naira.

This is what I foresee too. If CBN is strict with this latest regulation, unofficial BDC network will evolve to meet the excess legitimate needs, and other personal/non-official needs, which, of course, are much more in number and value. These unofficial players will then begin to dictate the price eventually.

Politics / Re: Peter Obi Gives Account Of Presidential Campaign Funding by mrBlunt(m): 2:41pm On Feb 15
No. It's realistic, given the amount reportedly spent. Account maintenance charge is minimum of 1 naira per mille (1,000) of transaction. That means, if they spent 1 billion Naira, the bank charges would be 1m Naira already. Add the electronic money transfer charges, sms alert charges, stamp duty fees, and the VAT to it.

1.8million as bank charges is a fraud🤪

If SE plays as consistently and seriously as they played against Cameroon, I am sure we will defeat Angola. We are a big threat in the forward line and a rock of Gibraltar in defence. We have mastered the art of slowing down/frustrating the move of a high pressing team like Angola. Straight win for Nigeria is all I see.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

You are very correct.

Lot of people have not watched the Angolans play.

I repeat, it will be Nigeria toughest match till date in the tournament.

Senegal are facing the first true test today and they are crumbling. They are overestimated. As it stands, the odds seem to favour CIV and Senegal may lose.

The chances of Nigeria winning this tournament, with the superman osimhen giving constant threat upfront backed by lookman, moses, iheanacho, etc and the rock-solid defence in place, are getting brighter.
