"Bolt, Are you aware that your riders are actually spoiling your name? Are you aware that they are becoming th!£ves? They are actually th£!ves right now in Port Harcourt."

~A woman has expressed frustration over what she described as the growing practice of some bolt and inDrive drivers in Port Harcourt accepting ride requests through the apps, only to later demand significantly higher fares before or upon arrival.

In an emotional video, she compared her experience in Port Harcourt with Abuja, claiming that drivers in the FCT generally honour the fare displayed on the app, while some drivers in Port Harcourt allegedly request additional payments or refuse to proceed with trips unless passengers agree to pay more.

@WilJay_1 It’s simple. People that don’t have money don’t know the value of money. People that have and know what money can do understands the value of every penny. People are more generous when broke then when in abundance

You need boredom. A lot of it. Start by going on walks without music. No stimulation. No distractions of any kind. If you learn to sit with your own thoughts, for long enough, in time they will start serving you. You'll start having ideas once again. You'll start developing an extreme sense of clarity that will shift you into the next stage of your life. All by being bored, which is pretty insane.

I love and hate prepping someone for a deposition.

To make them understand how a deposition works, the first question I ask is, “Do you know what time it is?”

Nearly every single time, the person will either check his or her watch, or look up at a clock. Then, they will say “Yes, it is 10:30.”

At this point I just smile and shake my head. “No.” Then, I explain why their answer is wrong:

I asked if they knew the time. Not what time it was currently.

Me: “So what would your answer be then?”

Witness: “Yes.”

Me: “Wrong.”

They didn’t know the time, because they had to look at a watch or clock.

If you are ever deposed and do not have a bitch like me prepping you, remember this key: Listen to the question and answer only what is asked. And only what you actually know or recall.

No charge for this advice.

That is precisely why a country going through a socioeconomic transition needs stiff, firm, authoritarian, nationalist bastards as its leadership - not "democratically elected" people who are subject to votes from these miserable idiots who go digging for gold on an expressway.

Lee Kuan Yew told us decades ago that when his government built high rise apartments to take poor Singaporeans out of bamboo shacks, they deliberately began peeing in the elevators and taking countermeasures against the government's attempts to stop them from messing up their own infrastructure. They had to humiliate and punish people brutally before they started acting in ways that were beneficial to their own lives.

If you want to uplift poor, colonised people, you will have to do it AGAINST THEIR WILL. Colonised people are not sane and a revolutionary must not pretend that he is up against sane, rational people who want a better life. A colonised man will steal expensive paint and empty it out into a river so that he can sell the plastic buckets and use the peanuts to play BetPesa. He will dig up his country's first high speed motorway that is going to add hundreds of millions of dollars to everyone's collective pocket, so that he can find gold nuggets and sell them for $650. He will vandalise railway lines that are meant to improve his own life so that he can sell the metal to a scrap dealer and use it to buy some pussy that night.

Colonised people are among the biggest dangers to themselves and the countries they inhabit, and any leader wishing to improve his country's material conditions despite the presence of millions of colonised people who are out of their natural minds, must be prepared to go the Stalin, Mao and Lee Kuan Yew way. Re-education camps, public flogging and forced labour so offenders can repay their debt to society.

China was once burdened with millions of useless idiots like this, but deliberate state policy removed them from the census and transformed China into the world's most successful civilisation. Hard decisions must be made in pursuit of development.

Grand Corruption: Nigeria’s Greatest Threat.

The recent report from the IMF consultation further raises concerns about the scale of grand corruption under the Tinubu government. The IMF now reveals that about N8.83 trillion in expenditure undertaken in 2025 is not reflected in the budget. This expenditure is not budgeted and is therefore not under legislative oversight or administrative scrutiny. This is horrible.

N8.83 trillion is as follows:

1.About 2% of our GDP.

2.Over 35% of Nigeria’s 2025 N23.96 trillion capital project budget. In fact, the amount is more than the actual released capital funding for 2025.

https://t.co/Hta3LViCB8 is more than the entire combined budget for education (N3.52 trillion) and health (N2.38 trillion).

If such an amount is properly used and accounted for, it could transform Nigeria’s public health and education sectors. It could create hundreds of cottage industries that can provide jobs for thousands of graduates and build a solid foundation for economic development. But we cannot account for it. This is not an isolated incident.

This is a pattern of grand corruption that has become part of this administration.
We have a lot to worry about regarding the state of corruption under President Tinubu. The sort of corruption that is ingrained in total disregard of elementary rules of public finance management poses a grave danger to national security and the stability of the Nigerian state. The capture of the Nigerian state and the plunder of its resources are actions that undermine the basis of state stability and deepen poverty and state failure.

This recent revelation proves that the APC government is grossly corrupt, incompetent, and insensitive. With the growing poverty and the urgent need for significant upgrades to social and physical infrastructure, a responsible and responsive government would ensure that N8.83 trillion is prudently utilised to address these gaps. But not the Tinubu administration.

A few days ago, I called on President Tinubu to resign from office for incompetence, lack of capacity, lack of compassion, and failure to improve on his campaign promises. Some people thought perhaps the call was excessive. But with the daily revelations of pervasive corruption in this administration and its total lack of commitment to the welfare and security of Nigerian citizens, the only reasonable action is for President Tinubu to resign from office. The collapse of elementary forms of due process under Tinubu and the increased evidence of rampant looting of Nigerian public finances reinforce the need for greater accountability. It is now time for Nigerian citizens to rise within the law and hold this administration to account.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

A friend declared to me yesterday that there are certain requests a woman would make and he will tell her she shouldn't be living alone, that she should move back home, cos she's still unfit to be independent.

@Chimaforkeeps 50 trips per day, assuming you run 24 hours, implies each trip (including loading and offloading plus the journey) under 15 minutes approximately.

That’s flat out impossible.

Before LNG is loaded into a tank, the tank must be properly prepared through a series of controlled stages. This preparation is critical to ensure safety and to prevent damage due to extreme temperatures.

An LNG tank is fitted with different lines, each serving a specific purpose: filling lines, spray lines, discharge lines, and pumps.

The first stage is drying. The tank may contain humid air, which can lead to ice formation at low temperatures. To prevent this, dry air is introduced from the bottom of the tank through the filling lines to displace the moist air.

Next is inerting. After drying, inert gas is introduced into the tank to purge out the dry air. This step is important to eliminate oxygen and reduce the risk of forming flammable gas mixtures.

The third stage is gassing-up (vaporizing). Since inert gas contains carbon dioxide, which can freeze at low temperatures, it must be removed. Warm LNG vapor is introduced through the spray lines to displace the inert gas and prepare the tank for cooling.

Then comes cooling down, which is a critical stage. The tank must be gradually cooled to avoid thermal stress that could damage the structure. Cold LNG is sprayed into the tank through spray nozzles, bringing the temperature down to about -110°C to -130°C.

Finally, the loading (filling) stage begins. At this point, the tank is ready to safely receive LNG, and the cargo is loaded through the filling lines.

In simple terms, the process moves from removing moisture, to removing oxygen, to introducing gas, then cooling the tank, and finally loading the LNG.
