China made use of their human capital investment properly but ours is a curse to our greedy leaders .

They are just getting ready for the green evolution. Decongesting there country of combustion engine automobiles in resdiness for total embrace of electric and solar automobiles. And some country are seeing this as a previledge ?

AutoJoshNG:


There are a lot of people out there that give less attention to the transmission of their car. They fail to give their transmission the necessary care it needs until one major fault arises or when it finally packs up.

One of the routine maintenance of a car’s transmission that is most times overlooked by some people is knowing when to change the transmission oil. The transmission oil might be present in the car and even up to the prescribed level but may contain too much dirt or sludge that will cause the transmission misbehave.

We are about to list the signs your car is likely to give to indicate your transmission is dirty and requires to be flushed.

These are the 5 signs to tell you need to flush your transmission

1. Surging of the Vehicle:

When your vehicle’s transmission is polluted with a lot of dirt and contaminants, and needs a transmission flush, you may notice inexplicable surging of your vehicle. Because your car’s dirty transmission does not allow for adequate transmission fluid flow, your vehicle may tend to jump or surge forward and fall backwards for no good reason. This is caused by inconsistent flow of clean transmission fluid that is needed to ensure smooth operation of the gears and other moving parts inside the transmission bell housing.

2. Delay in Vehicle Movement:

Another sign that your vehicle may have contaminated transmission fluid is when the vehicle stalls for one or two seconds before moving after having been put in gear. If there are no other problems with the transmission, a transmission flush may help.

3. Grinding and strange noises from the transmission:

A transmission that is due for oil change may start making grinding or strange noises. This noise tends to be significant when the transmission is contaminated with dirt, grease and sludge. At this point, the transmission displays symptoms very similar to inadequate level of transmission fluid.

4. Sluggish response while shifting gears:

On a normal operating condition of the transmission, the transition from one gear to another is often smooth. When your transmission is not clean and contains much dirt or sludge, you’ll get sluggish response in the transmission.

This could mean your car will start changing gear more quickly or too late when you drive.

For manual transmission, you may find it hard to change gears at all.

5. Slipping gears:

The effect of dirty transmission can also result in slipping gears. Very low transmission fluid can also cause this. Contaminated fluids will cause lack of hydraulic power and could make gear slip.

When you start noticing any or all these signs in your car, it may mean that your transmission needs to be flushed. You will need to take your car to a professional to flush off the old fluid and replace with a new RECOMMENDED fluid.

Please, endeavour to use the Transmission fluid recommended by your car manufacturers. It will save you a whole lot of troubles.

Autojosh this sounds like manual geared cars to me . Those this apply to automatic gear system a well?

Bitradepay:
Let me chip in.

Dont rush to make decision. Firstly survey your environment very well. Also, know that whatever you import requires marketing. The question is: are you willing and ionate to sell? If its YES, then you are good to go.

As stated by the people above, tech products sells faster, women stuffs also sells..

All in all, make sure its something that solves a problem.


To your success..

Thanks Boss. I will adopt gadgets first because am a tech person. I ay start an ecommere stores for them. That may lead me to blogging about the products too. What to get in of gdfts is not a problem. My problem may be in auto spare parts

ManspaceBarber:

The world is taking technology level with emergence of IoT(Internet of Things), Artificial intelligence, robotics.
Get ahead of time if you decide to import goods from that side.
You can import:
Toys, games & robots.
Smart home appliances and wearable devices.

Yes Boss. I understand you wella.
God blessed

Thanks.pls more suggestions keep rolling in I appreciate. I understand spare parts but fish, I do not understand. Does custom allow that?

Recently I read a thread where an aggrieved NL'der complained about NYSC denying his sister her discharge certificate after serving her fatherland.

https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/5323208/nysc-discriminates-against-benin-republic

The foremost university education regulatory agency in Nigeria, the NUC recently released a list of about 60 institutions in the country considered as illegal. The NUC said the list isn't even exhaustive and warned the general public about patronising such institutions.

It warns that "Certificates obtained from these sources will not be recognised for the purpose of NYSC, employment or further studies".

Good move, don't you think? Public awareness is key in the fight against the menace of these mushroom universities. It will save many from the financial and psychological trauma resulting from falling victims of this parasitic institutions.

Cc: Lalasticlala let people know. Ignorance is not an excuse. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.

I need a great, smooth and mobile website for my start up

post=74934800:


Coming from someone whose CRIMINAL of a candidate has been FALLING for over a decade!
Yeye dey smell!

This your Job must be very hectic on U. Gradually u are running out of stunts. Just my thinking though, no offense.

I will like this kinggnicole to take note of this. Some men don't like been lied to by women, especially if dey hold dat woman to high esteem. I quit about 2 relationship simply ease of lie about age. Mind u, I already knew or cold guess the age but wen u ask this person they will lie, why, what for? How many lies or secret have you kept already? So such tins happens, it kills d joy. It will take quite sacrifice and reassurance to win me bak. So I kinda understand ur man predicament. Let me tell u, if u don't show u could qut ur job to mk him happy, u ,ay never win him bak. It's not about having kids but u can preach to him that God wanted u guys to be that's y he gave u the triplets. Also make him see that is a mistake that will never repeat itself again that u never knew the weight of this error until now that it came out this way.
U need to make him understand that u never knew u where this wrong until it came out this way.

Ur husband needs to be sure u are not that deceitful. He may even think u are doing something with ur boss, hence asking u to quit ur job.
Yes I agree he is been irrational, but he is also an angry man. U have to thread with caution.
I wish u goodluck.

I don't even know how to start, I'm really sad and i know it is my fault, i'm sorry if it's a long read i need advise please bear with me.

When i was still single at age 29, I left a relationship that turned out be a mistake so it took time before i met someone else, at age 31 I noticed changes in my period (one month off, one month on) it has never happened to me before so i didnt take it to be anything, then it started skipping 2 months at a roll, then 3 months, i became worried cos i wasn't sexualy active at all. During this period i met my husband and we started something serious, to be on a safe side i went to see the doctor, he said i was fine that it's hormonal changes, he gave me some drugs (mostly vitamins) but it was still skipping, when my husband proposed, i went back to the doctor, he did series of tests, when results came out he said i'm having symptoms of POF, i was shocked, i cried and cried cos it's unheard of for someone my age, i told him i'm about to get married what can i do he said i should start taking hormonal injections since it's too early to be POF, i started taking it and praying all will be fine, all this while i didnt say a word of this to my husband to be or anyone else, then we got married, i took in immediately, it was the happiest day of my life, when we discovered it was triplets i cried tears of joy to the extent that my husband wondered why i was soo happy, i gave birth to 2 boys and a girl, i really thank God for his faithfulness cos i was soo nervous during the pregnancy.

My period was still skipping, then this year march it stopped completely, i went to see 2 different doctors to be sure, they confirmed i have POF (early menopause), i cried and still thank God cos he blessed me with the fruit of the womb but i couldnt bring myself to tell my husband, then he started noticing i dont buy sanitary pad anymore, he asked thinking i was pregnant i always tell him no, at a point he had to ask me if i want to make the pregnancy a surprise, that was when i knew it's time to tell him the truth, i knelt down and told him everything, i held nothing back, he was shocked that i could do something like that to him, he said i should have told him before we got married, i told him he wouldnt have married me if i told him, he was angry, he said what if the hormonal injections didnt work, it was an expensive and wicked gamble, i told him it worked that's what matters now, he abused me and walked out of the house, he didnt come home till the next day, since then things have never been the same.

He hardly talks to me except when necessary, we dont gist and joke anymore, i always beg and beg him, he says he's forgiven me but he goes back to his moody self, we hardly make love anymore, when he finally does, he doesnt look at my face, now he wants me to quit my job so i'll have my full attention on the kids, recently we had a fight about it and i told him point blank i cant quit my job the kids are fine he said i must do that, he doesnt want anything happening to them since i'm no more fertile, who says that? I cried my eyes out that night, It's not my fault nature took it's course on me, i never imagined something like this would ever happen to me.

Now he doesn't talk to me at all anymore, i'm about to tell both our families everything cos i've begged and begged him and i'm tired, i want anonymous advise that's why i'm here, please please married men and women or whoever, how do i go about this?

I pity her if she takes this ur advise. By thway am not sure u se married yet and please wen it gets to ur turn, make sure u take this steps u are advising. Not after misleading someone wen it gets to ur turn u become wise. That's how all u feminist do. U deceive ur mates and wen the ball rolls to ur court u act normal.
U think Nugeria is America, Mtcheew!

Kinggnicole:
You were wrong and you apologised.
I just hope you are not considering quiting your job. He's already rubbing it in your face that you are not fertile. Imagine adding jobless to the mix. He'll rub that in too forgetting he asked you to leave.

He's already abusing you emotionally. You have to be strong dear. And by being strong you have to know when to leave.

I will advise same thing alterswerve advised

Firefire:
Eight politicians with N232bn corruption cases working for Buhari’s re-election


Eniola Akinkuotu, Gbenro Adeoye, and Jesusegun Alagbe

At least eight out of the politicians working for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari in the February 2019 election have pending corruption cases worth N232bn, checks by Saturday PUNCH have revealed.

Investigation by our correspondents showed that the amount involved in the various graft cases, which are currently pending before security agencies, especially the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, range from N223m to N100bn for each of the politicians.

Some of the eight politicians, who used to be of the Peoples Democratic Party and other opposition parties, had allegedly defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress to stop the dangling axe of the EFCC and other security agencies from falling on them.

Specifically, the politicians who are currently either under probe or prosecution for allegedly diverting government funds have separately vowed to ensure Buhari remains in power untill 2023.

The eight politicians include the senator representing Nasarawa West at the National Assembly, Abdullahi Adamu; the senator representing Sokoto North and former Governor of Sokoto State, Aliyu Wamakko; ex-Senate Minority Leader and former Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Godswill Akpabio, who recently defected from the PDP to the APC; and a former Governor of Abia State, Orji Uzor Kalu.

Others are the immediate past Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal; the former Governor of Rivers State and Director-General of the Buhari Campaign Organisation in 2015, Rotimi Amaechi; the Governor of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari; and former National Chairman of the PDP, Ali Modu Sheriff.

Abdullahi Adamu (N15bn)

For instance, Adamu, a serving senator and former Governor of Nasarawa State, is one of the President’s allies in the Senate. He is also a member of the National Advisory Committee of the Buhari 2019 Presidential Committee.

The lawmaker is being prosecuted alongside 18 others for allegedly stealing N15bn from the treasury through contracts awarded when he was governor for eight years.

His son, Nurianu, was also arraigned by the EFCC in January 2018 for alleged N90m fraud. However, the former governor has been one of the fiercest critics of Senate President Bukola Saraki.


According to Saraki, the former governor has been insulting him in order to get a soft landing.

Saraki had said in July, “I have deliberately ignored the antics of Senator Abdullahi Adamu, especially his constant media attacks on me and the Senate since the EFCC dusted his file on alleged case of corruption and also went ahead to arraign his son in court.”

Aliyu Wamakko (N15bn)

Senator Aliyu Wamakko is in charge of Buhari’s campaign in Sokoto State. A few weeks ago, he held a massive rally on behalf of Buhari in order to prove to the President that Governor Aminu Tambuwal’s defection would be of no effect.

Wamakko, who served as governor from 2007 to 2015, is under investigation over allegations of theft of public funds and money laundering totalling N15bn, an allegation he has vehemently denied.

Spokesperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, had confirmed in April that the commission was investigating allegations contained in a petition against Wammako and that he would soon be invited to defend the allegations.

Godswill Akpabio (N100bn)

The former governor of Akwa Ibom State has been under probe by the EFCC for over three years based on allegations that he diverted over N100bn from the coffers of the state between 2007 and 2015.

Akpabio was welcomed into the APC by the President himself.

The former governor, who represents Akwa Ibom North-West Senatorial District, recently vowed that the APC would take over Akwa Ibom the way Adolph Hitler invaded Poland.

Akpabio, who on Friday travelled to China with the President is arguably the closest defector to Buhari and has vowed to do everything possible to ensure Buhari is re-elected.

Although he has been grilled by the EFCC, he has not been charged.

Orji Uzor Kalu (N3.2bn)

Kalu, who governed Abia State from 1999 to 2007, was one of the most influential politicians in the South-East during his time in government. After leaving the PDP, he formed the Progressive Peoples Alliance from where he contested and lost a senatorial election in 2015.

The following year, he defected to the APC and has paid several visits to the President since then.

Recently, he visited the President in his hometown of Daura, Katsina State, where he was bestowed with the title, ‘Dan Baiwan Hausa’ by the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Umar Farouq.

According to the emir, Kalu was bestowed with the title in appreciation of his “unwavering for our son, President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, Bayajida II .”

However, the former governor has been having a running legal battle with the EFCC since leaving office.

The EFCC alleged that Kalu and the others committed fraud between August 2001 and October 2005. It accused Kalu of utilising his company (Slok Nigeria Limited) to retain in the of First Inland Bank, now First City Monument Bank, the sum of N200m.

The commission said that the sum formed part of funds illegally derived from the coffers of the Abia State government. The EFCC also said that the accused retained, in different bank s, about N2.5bn belonging to the state government, adding that he diverted about N3.2bn from the coffers of the same government.

Regardless of his travails, the former governor has insisted that he will do all within his power to ensure that Buhari is re-elected.

Babachir Lawal (N223m)

The immediate past Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal, was accused by the Senate ad hoc Committee on Mounting Humanitarian Crisis in the North-East, led by Senator Shehu Sani, of awarding a N223m consultancy contract for the removal of invasive plant species in Komadugu, Yobe Water Channels to his company, Rholavision Engineering in contravention of Section 43(iii) and (iv) of the Public Procurement Act 2007.

A committee headed by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo subsequently investigated Lawal and recommended his dismissal in October 2017, a year after he was indicted by the Senate.

Although he is under probe by the EFCC, Babachir is among the key figures running Buhari’s re-election campaign in Adamawa State. He also revealed during a recent interview on Channels Television that he still had direct access to the President.

The former SGF has been having a leadership tussle with Governor Jibrilla Bindow over who should lead Buhari’s campaign in the state.

Rotimi Amaechi (N97bn)

Amaechi, who was the Director-General of the Buhari Campaign Organisation in 2015, has been charged with the task of ensuring that Buhari is elected a second time.

The Minister of Transport, who is the face of the Buhari campaign, was indicted by the Justice George Omeregi-led Rivers State Judicial Commission of Inquiry set up to investigate the sale of state assets.

He and others were accused of allegedly misappropriating N97bn through the sale of the state valued assets.

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, had alleged that $150m (N30bn at the time) was spent on Buhari’s campaign in 2015.

Amaechi challenged his indictment but lost at the Appeal Court. Although anti-graft agencies have refused to state if he is under investigation or not, he has yet to clear his name and is still under investigation by the state government.

The Rivers State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Emma Okah, insisted that Amaechi was not cleared by the that indicted him on the sale of some assets belonging to the state.

Also, a top official at the Government House in Port Harcourt, pointed out that at the last count on the matter, the former governor had gone to the Supreme Court.

An appeal filed by Amaechi against the Justice George Omereji-led was in May 2017 dismissed by the Appeal Court in Port HarCourt.

The Appeal Court had said that the refusal of Amaechi to appear before the amounted to self-denial.

But Okah said that the matter was currently at the Supreme Court.

“He (Amaechi) went to court against the and the matter is still in the Supreme Court. The state government has not cleared him on the matter concerning the sale of valued assets belonging to the state,” he said.

Amaechi could not be reached for comments, as he did not answer calls to his mobile phone.

A text message sent to him on the matter did not get any reply.

However, a senior official of the Federal Ministry of Transportation told our correspondent that the minister was out of the country.

The official, who also works directly with the minister, stated he (the official) was not aware of the said allegations against Amaechi.

“I have not seen it (the report) and can’t speak on it. However, the minister is in China right now,” the official, who pleaded to be anonymous, said.

Abdul’aziz Yari (N680m)

Yari has been engaged in a fierce battle with the EFCC for over a year following allegations that he diverted nearly N700m which formed part of the Paris Club refund due to his state.

In July last year, a Federal High Court in Abuja ordered an interim forfeiture of the sums of N500m and $500,000 (N180m) said to have been looted from the Paris Club refunds made by the Federal Government in favour of the 36 states of the federation.

The sums of money said to have been recovered from two firms, First Generation Mortgage Bank Limited, and Gosh Projects Limited, were allegedly linked to the governor.

The EFCC also alleged, in an affidavit filed in of its ex parte application seeking the interim forfeiture of the sums of money, that the N500m was diverted to offset Yari’s personal loan obtained from the First Generation Mortgage Bank Limited.

In July, the Presidential Committee of Buhari 2019 appointed Sheriff as the director-general.

The National Secretary of the group, Kassim Kassim, said in a statement that the conglomerate of about 300 Buhari ers’ groups unanimously endorsed Sheriff to lead the Presidential Committee, Buhari 2019 and not the Buhari’s Campaign Organisation for the 2019 election.

He said groups that made up the Presidential Committee were all ed with the office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Political Matters.

Sheriff and others are under investigation for allegedly receiving N450m out of the N23bn ($115m) bribe allegedly disbursed by a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, during the build-up to the 2015 elections.

He has been grilled several times by the EFCC but was never charged. His private jet was also impounded by the commission but later released to him.

Sagay, EFCC react

Speaking with our correspondent, the Chairman, Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), said ing the President’s camp would not save any politician from probe or prosecution.

He said those whose cases had already been taken to court would continue to face prosecution.

Sagay, however, said there was room for plea bargain, an option he said stubborn people would never use.

He said, “I know Akpabio is still under probe and if he is found culpable, he would be invited and prosecuted. For me, the only import of him ing the President’s campaign is that he can be persuaded to make a plea bargain quickly, which everyone is entitled to, but the stubborn ones will not take that option

“As for allegations against Amaechi, he was indicted by a fake and useless judicial set up by Wike, who is himself under investigation for corruption. He set up a kangaroo , which Amaechi refused to answer to.”

When asked about the Appeal Court ruling which ordered Amaechi to answer to the , Sagay added, “he doesn’t have to answer to rubbish. Judges who allow themselves to engage in injustice deserve to be disregarded. Amaechi is innocent. All the charges were trumped up.”

Also speaking with our correspondent, the EFCC Spokesperson, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said ing the President’s camp would not translate to immunity from prosecution.

Uwujaren said, “The EFCC neither closes cases nor clears people. Also, being in the President’s party does not give anyone immunity from prosecution.”

Buhari, who later won the presidential election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress had consistently accused the then ruling party, the PDP of engaging in mind-boggling corrupt practices.

“If Nigeria does not kill corruption, corruption will kill Nigeria,” Buhari had said repeatedly during the build-up to the 2015 general elections.

However, no sooner had he been declared winner than some politicians from the same corrupt party began defecting to the President’s own party.

While some of the allegedly corrupt persons were kept at arm’s length, others became very close to the President, constantly appearing in pictures with the professed anti-corruption champion and sending mixed signals to Nigerians.

SERAP, CACOL react

The Executive Director of Socio-Economic Rights and ability Project, Adetokunbo Mumuni, however, said it would be wrong to condemn the President for being ed by people alleged to be corrupt if there was no proof that he had prevented anti-corruption agencies from prosecuting such people.

He said, “Unless you want to tell me that the anti-corruption agencies will not do anything unless they are prompted or unless somebody says they should do it, I don’t want to believe rumours. Allegations must be backed by concrete evidence for it to be substantiated. I don’t want to think that somebody with convincing evidence against him will be prevented from facing the music simply because he s the President. For example, Kalu still has his case in court.”

Similarly, the Executive Chairman, Centre for Anti-Corruption and Open Leadership, Mr. Debo Adeniran, said it would be wrong to presume people guilty because they have corruption allegations against them and that the President could not have stopped anyone from ing him, in any case.

He said, “You can’t prevent sinners from going to a religious place, what you don’t have to allow is for them to take over the pulpit to preach the doctrine of the crimes that they have been committing. From our recent experience, defecting to the ruling party has not, in practical , stopped the trial of some of politicians. For instance, Kalu’s case is still in court.

“And as of now, Akpabio has yet to be convicted and until someone is convicted, you cannot say they have committed a crime. Even Kalu, whose case is in court, cannot be said to be guilty of the offence until he is convicted. So, it is a moral question and the moral suasion has its limit.”

But a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Onueze Okocha, said President Buhari was sending a dangerous and negative signal to Nigerians by allowing people with pending corruption cases to work for his re-election.

He said, “The whole thing sends a dangerous and unhappy signal to all of us that the so-called anti-corruption war is not whole. We can all see that only those in the opposition are mainly those investigated of corruption while those in the ruling party are regarded as sacred cows.

“It’s what we’ve always known; there is no effectiveness in the anti-corruption war. Look at Akpabio, for instance, shortly after he was elected to the Senate, the EFCC raided his house and found lots of cash. Now that he has defected to the APC, what happens to him?

“Babachir Lawal, though has been sacked, is still free to walk around. Look at the issue of fake National Youth Service Corps certificate held by Mrs. Kemi Adeosun, all these tell us there are sacred cows in the anti-corruption war.”

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the declaration to run for the presidency made by Senate President Bukola Saraki has ‘vindicated’ him.

The official said this on Friday in a statement by his chief press secretary, Simon Ebegbulem, after a meeting of leaders of the party in Kwara State led by the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Muhammed.

Mr Saraki, who recently decamped from the APC, on Thursday declared to run for the presidency under the platform of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party.

The chairman had said Mr Saraki’s plan was to destroy the APC because of his inordinate ambition.

Charging APC in Kwara State to jettison their personal ambitions and work towards ”ending the reign of Saraki in Kwara politics as 2019 approaches”, Mr Oshiomhole said reclaiming Kwara is a task that must be accomplished.

“When I was saying that all these defections are not about APC but the personal ambition of these people, they took hired writers to say I was being too hard. But Saraki’s declaration has vindicated me.

”Thank God, he has moved on because his inordinate ambition was almost destroying our party but he has failed. These are not principled politicians but bread and butter politicians who can go extra miles to pursue their selfish ambition and never think about the well-being of Nigerians.

“As things stand today, APC remains the darling of the Nigerian people. Because PDP was the vomit of yesterday, our people will not ‘chew’ it back today, not under three and half years. People have not forgotten and people will never forget. In fact, what a senior palace chief in Nigeria said: this generation of Nigerians will not forgive the PDP in a hurry. Even to say you want to forgive you must do reparation.

“The damage they did to our economy, the damage they did to our electoral process, even the culture of rigging was institutionalised by them. They introduced do or die politics. They are the ones buying weapons for young people to go into thuggery while their own children are schooling abroad. They introduced all these vices,” he said.

The chairman also directed APC leaders to ensure they conclude the election of executives from the wards to the state level this weekend.

“The last time I spoke with the minister, he told me we have accomplished 80 or 85 per cent, that for me is not good enough because we don’t have more time. So this week, we must achieve 100 per cent by whatever means. If you can’t do it, we have to help you get it done.

“The two deputy national chairmen working with the national organising secretary and the North-central vice-chairman constituted a committee to complete whatever is left. It will not exceed Sunday this week. I also want to appeal very strongly, that at this hour, we don’t want a situation where because of what is happening in Kwara, people, who ordinarily will be quite happy to be a strong pillar of , everybody wants to be a governor, everybody wants to be a Senator or in the House of Reps.

“Our party is a party of change and we want to discourage people from putting their personal interest over and above the interest of the people of Kwara state. I am able to say under the leadership of the Minister, he has repeatedly said it that his interest is not for him to contest for the governorship of Kwara state or any elective office. I don’t think it can be more selfless than that,” he said.

He said the task of taking over Kwara had begun.

“Let them know and carry the message of change and use the broom to sweep away the past, including the thorn umbrella. The task of sweeping away the past and rebuilding a new Kwara is a task that must be done.

”That should give you the energy, the incentive and the appropriate spirit to work together so that victory will be ours, not for our own good but for the good of the great people of Kwara State who have been oppressed for such a long long time. Like they say, they can be many days for the thief, one day for the owner.”

Mr Oshiomile, I will be the last person or in the group of Last people to believe whatever u say. They where able to keep u in a position that allows u access beautiful women (ur weakest point) so u betrayed trust and confidence Nigerians had on U.

God gave u a chance, but u chose to satisfy ur urges. Where is the No.1 Labour man we use to know? Gone and buried!

Jamariwolff:
I sin sexually everyday , either by masturbation or fornication. Yes, every single day, i commit sexual sin.

Pls help me someone, the urge is overpowering me. I can't do nothing, i feel empty afterwards but still.....

Oh Lord.

U are voicing at the wrong place. What church denomination do u attend? U hae suffering from severe case of youthful exorbitant and u where probably sexual molested or abused at a vry young age. What u are ing through is not new to the world. But just like u have started seeking for way out of the bondage, I pray you succeed.

Nymeria247:
Dear OP,

Only an analogue bank would require a POS Merchant to come to the bank with sales receipts when a serious digital bank like Fidelity bank Plc sets up their POS merchants on a portal called OLYMPOS where transaction reports are viewed, and ed by their POS merchants in real-time.

POS Models:

Below are approved POS models for your business needs.

1. XGD G2 (GPRS) (Global Accelerex Terminal)@ Unit cost of N67,000.
2. Orange Box 7210 (GPRS and Wi-Fi) @ Unit cost of N65,000.
3. Pax S90 (GPRS)@ Unit cost of N71,000.

Note that POS transaction fee is 0.75% capped at N1,200. (the maximum charge for POS transactions is N1,200)

You may want to go to CBN website and read up the full details yourself.

Sorry is this charge per transaction?

TroubleMaker47:

Who makes POS sales of over 2million?
By the way POS has a max cap of 2k on commission,
Ie whether u recieve payment of 1million or 2 million or even 10milllion, the bank gets a flat commission of 2k

Oga I disagree with u. If the pay is coming in 3k, 5k, 2k etc, they will make the money in months so 20m still 150k

Agentone1:
You can easily get POS ...

Very cute Android POS devices with fingerprints, Camera, Iris scanners, RFID reader, bar code scanners,fix or swipe card, interface with color screen and can host multiple applications etc...

Mail: @agentone.ng if interested

How much? I want pos that can scan qr code information and stamp it with time and date on a database. csv or xls. Pls if u understand, pm me. But am not in for an exorbitant price. Give ur quotation to [email protected]

lizarazus:
Good Morning, 1st of all, u don't have to go to the bank for reconciliation. u can do that on your own. what you should ask from your bank is your POS TRANSACTION STATEMENT. it depends on how frequently you would like to get it. u can then reconcile with your bank statement. you can also negotiate the charge on POS depending on the volume of transaction. some banks will still go as low as 0.2%. Good Luck.

Bro, show me the way naa. If u know any bank that can do that I will open acct with them.

petsam11:


I created this topic because I want to know. Because one of the banks that I applied to, for the POS said it is free of charge but that they will continue to deduct 0.75% for each/every transaction and so many other things.
But while going through the whole and conditions, it appeared too stringent and annoying. E come be like Greek gift...

One other conditions that I find very annoying and stressful is the one of coming every week to the bank to submit payment/sales slips that was done via the POS... Like how can I be doing that every week when one of the major reasons of me wanting to get this POS is to cut my movement in and out of the bank?
Again, why should they always be requesting for a payment slip every week when every transaction made with the POS must reflect in their system? Or are they trying to tell me that the POS machine is a manual/ledger stuff? Cos I don't understand. Or that the POS is always prone to malfunction which they still disclaimed that they will have nothing to do with it if it happens?
That's why I am here to get more information as regards everything that concerns POS. And to know if I can acquire it outside a bank and how much it may cost...
Pls bankers and ppl that know about the POS machine should please inform me better.
Thanks!

I am surprised to see this post because just this week I started using POS from my bank. Wen the marketer was selling the dea, I totally she meant 0.75%which is like 0.0075. Wen I saw payment of 3k deducting by 22.5 naira (meaning 0.75), I shouted. Most annoyingly, the part is dat u will wait till the nxt day before it reflects i n alerts.

However, they didn't tell me to be bringing the slips, them no fit try am. Otherwise, I will tell the marketer to come and be collecting it her self.

Please others share ur experiences. I dnt know why u are not mentioneing ur bank names. Pls I want the best service, say ur bank names me am gt bank.

Am even cosidrin microfinance banks that can issue pos if there plan is better. Because I dnt see y I keep making money for this ppl am wen I need a loan dey will start to sharpen their knives and shears....
