To confirm what Frank earlier said, i also experienced it teo days ago when i went to the schl restroom. I discovered there was no button or anything to use to flush when you're done urinating so i just did my thin and was leavin and surprisingly, just after i took few steps backwards, i heard the flush sound and when i looked back, my pee was all gone truly. grin

that the invisible power of sensor..

yeah but it not pupular yet..

and it damn too expensive..an average smart tv should be over 100 thousand naira ..

not too many Nigerians will be able to shell out that amount of money for a tv

The issue is not having a smart TV. The real issue is having the means to enjoy the smart TV (real unlimited fast Data!). What's the point of having a smart TV without unlimited data. I know slowly the phone companies are starting to provide some resemblance of "unlimited data". But that will not cut it. Majority of the folks in Nigeria (and a lot of African countries) still get on the internet via the phone, so connecting the TV to the internet will have to be done via a WiFi hot spot on the phone. I am sure Nigeria will get there slowly - The key things that will bring us to the level of these other countries are - Uninterrupted power supply and the ability to connect to the internet seamlessly. Heck! The kids do all their homeworks online and submit it. The course outline everything is online. They have been carrying school-supplied tablets since the 4th grade. So having internet is a critical neccesity here! As an IT person, I sometimes have to work from home and VPN into the office. So without the internet better be working uninterrupted 24/7!

We all love Naija, but these lack of basic neccesities are making it difficult to get stuff done.

this thread just dey give me hope..e just like say i dey yankee with una..


Yes ooo my brother, Naija is bleeped up now and the leaders arent helping matters. Everythin for here over make sense. Just keep working towards comin here bro and also remember to keep prayin cos only God can grant our wishes. It took me so long before i could get visa as well. I got it after several attempts buh when God finally says its time, nothin can change it.

One more thing, dont ever tell people your intentions to travel out and dont tell them when youre processing it, just keep the shit to yourself cos bad belle and enemies of progress plenty.

things like this are just basic necessity of life..but sadly it a luxury to most people..

i believe we can start first from uninterrupted power supply then things will get better from there

The funniest fact was that the leaders see all these things whenever they come here but would prefer giving the populace demagoguery promises. If you complain, some we say you are down grading your country when I know that my country is richly blessed, and we are able to do all these things for God's sake .

Hi, I've been a silent and faithful reader of this thread, I have a question, If I visited Canada through a visitor visa and extended my stay a month before my visa expires, what are the chances of it being renewed and what are the chances of getting permanent residence in future. Thanks

Sneaked into the US and claimed refugee. They denied him then he sneaked into Canada and claimed refugee. Canada will listen to his claim and will most likely grant his claim. Parts of the US/Canadian border is not guarded by custom agents. Actually a large amount.

I LOVE THIS

We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones and unite the civilized world against radical Islamic terrorism, which we will eradicate from the face of the Earth.
And whether a child is born in the urban sprawl of Detroit or the wind-swept plains of Nebraska, they look up at the same night sky, they will their heart with the same dreams, and they are infused with the breath of life by the same almighty creator.
