For those of you clamouring for mobile TV remember you have to buy special handsets for this service, so add that cost to the annual subscription and you'll get an idea of how expensive this can be.
Except of course this service is billed based on usage and not a fixed monthly charge.
@Brix25: The same DsTv bouquet that costs you N7,000+ in S.A. costs N9,500 here, plus most of the features available to you there are not here. See why we complain?

I hope that is not an example of a high price cos i bet it will cost more than the premium bouquette. Any where north of 10k.
@Angel: Keep seeing you on yahoo msgr but you havent responded recently. Hope you are 100%.

I am not clamouring for it. I am just applauding creative thinking.

Losers all!
The Ekiti Law makers, the Speaker, the "Acting" CJ, the Deputy Gov and of course ex-Gov Fayose.
Losers all!
Now they will have to live in quietness while a new set of ppl more or less complete their term in office. Admin Olurin won't leave until April 2007 after the elections!
I hope the other "rascals" (to use the term Ojukwu used) in Anambra State are taking notes. Baba will just loooove to wield his State-of-Emergency Joker in as many states as possible b4 the elections.
@demmy Long time dude. U still in school or what?
@Angelgirl Sorry my dear. I suggest you use this six months to write and write and write. If you don't have a journal, start one. Put your thots down for your kids and grand-kids. No TV puleese... except of course Brix sends you the DsTV one for ZA.
Posted by Angelgirl
Cool, i will give dis writing thing a 2nd thot, maybe wen my POP is removd, i will travel 2 my hometown, where i will b close 2 nature,then i might be inspired.

oh boy those politicians are very dead. What's the problem actually? Is it that Fayose does know the Golden Rule Of Engagement or vice versa? This baba's action reminds me of Gorbachev's word's "IF WE DO NOT FIND A WAY TO A PEACEFUL CO-EXISTENCE, SURELY ONE THING AWAITS US. TO PERISH TOGETHER.
Which state is next?
Posted by Angelgirl
Talking about Ekiti, 6 months suspension is too much now, Baba shld reconsider.

I think it is the constitution o. Something about "Six months in the first instance" and another three months if necessary.
But was there anything to warrant the S-O-E?
Was there violence?
Was there breakdown of security?
Why didn't the Govt try other options?
Can we say Baba tried to forestall such a drastic action?
Or was he looking ofrward to it?
Who is next? Maybe just Six Assembly-men will remove Dariye next.
What a mess.

@Coola: as a president, you do not have to wait for violence to occur before you take action. There could only have been one outcome of Three Governors each with armed security detail all laying claim to one seat.
Baba had to take pre-emptive measures. Serves them all right.

Oh, come on. we have had far worse situations in Anambra when thugs unleashed violence and burnt government buildings.
I agree with those who say it is selective justice. When "Ibadan Strongman" Adedibu did something similar in Oyo State, no one moved a finger. The Ekiti SOE is "Political corruption", as a Senator from the west called it.

Not to sound like a grinch, but if you have anything to write, make sure at the end it will provide $$$$. A journal for the next gens prosperity is good, but a bank account for them is better!!!
@demm: Congrats! Where are you serving?

@All ABOUT THE FREE NIGHT CALLS THING
After tryin it for three consecutive nights, I am taking a break. The practice can become addictive with conversations spanning several nights. Sleeping by 2 am every night does come with its problems.
So from tonight, my phones will sleep in my other room!
I think free night calls make sense only ON ONE NIGHT OF THE WEEK: Friday nights.
Posted by Demmy
@abu thanks I'm serving in lagos (guinness)
@coola me think u'r rigth bout the friday nith calls coz that's what i keep telling mr prospective night callers i.e fridays only.

A 10 yrs old boy had eaten suya about 15 days ago and fell sick, later when he had his health check done doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS. His parents couldn't believe it...?
Then the entire family under went a checkup none of them was suffering from that. The doctors checked with the boy if he had eaten out? And the boy says he had suya one evening.
The hospital team went there to check. They found the suya seller had a cut on his finger while cutting the onions, and his blood had spread in the food. When they had his blood checked... the guy was suffering from AIDS but he himself was not aware.
Please take care while u eat from road side suya or roadside vendors.

I told the person who sent this that it is NOT possible. What do u guys think?

It's impossible to have detected HIV after 15 days because of the 3 to 6 months window period.
Posted by brix25
Yep, it's impossible. Aids is very difficult to catch...especially when it's not direct contact with infected bodily fluids.
Posted by egunjespoilagos
I would take that suya story with a pinch of salt but would generally accept the conclusion

Apart from the above quote,. it's also not possible to cnotract HIV orally i.e throuth eaten food items BUT ONLY THROUGH THE EXCHANGE OF BODY FLUIDS OTHER THAN "SALIVA"...QED

Thank you Demmy!

I'm happy that the pus moved by coolapostle has been drained. However, we must not allow his faulty premise to distract us from his otherwise excellent conclusion.
Meanwhile our national assembly has ratified obj's ekiti madness, but it appeared that the ratification is a negotiated attempt at preventing what could have been a disgrace for this president. It appeared as if most assembly men felt that the emergency declaration was unwarranted but lacked the courage to look this rampaging president in the face.

When a person is reactive to ELISA then he has to go for a confirmatory test (Western blot, or IFA). In ambiguous cases a second test is done after 1 - 2 moths. Did this boy go for any confirmatory test? Was this child medical history taken correctly? such as blood transfusion.
My conclusion is that the Suya man is not responsible for this boy's HIV but we should be careful of what we eat.
@All...Wish me luck cos i am about to collect form for the gubernatorial race

Well, to me it appears as if our Nascent democracy has no faith in us either. I think OBJ was a bad news for Nigeria's democracy. And I'm happy to note that of all the "good things" his government has been credited, helping to grow democracy was not one of them. I also belief that of all things IBB might have been guilty of, his government was more democratic. At least we had a debate about IMF loan and since Nigerians said No to IMF, the man went to the Paris Club! And when OBJ chose to dash the Paris Club, $12BN that could have taken Nigeria out of its infrastructural doldrum, who did he ask? NOT EVEN THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY, who as it is in their characters approved what could only have been an afterthought request.
