MTN BANS MIDNIGHT CALL – OTHER FREEBIES SOON

Posted by on
Largest mobile network in Nigeria, MTN has banned midnight calls. This statement was issued and confirmed during a conversation with a customer care agent who said it was an order from the management.

There was no reason for the stop of a service that has helped youths, students and business men alike since 2007 but speculations have it that it was because the free service provided a room for some customers not to buy recharge cards often and also to punish Nigerians for the billion Naira fine slammed on MTN by the NCC.

“It is true that the service has been stopped by the management. Would that be all for now, thank you for choosing MTN” the customer care representative told global community reporters.

Midnight calls used to run from 12:30am – 4:30am. This service will forever be missed but we hope that the management resuscitates it soon because it is useful and also other networks such as Etisalat and Glo will continue their own midnight calls service.

RUSSIA STRIKES AND HITS MOSQUE IN MARIUPOL COMMUNITY

An explosion in an apartment building that came under fire from a Russian army tank in Mariupol, Ukraine, on March 11, 2022. Evgeniy Maloletka—AP BY MSTYSLAV CHERNOV AND YURAS KARMANAU / AP MARIUPOL, Ukraine — Russian forces pounding the port city of Mariupol shelled a mosque that was sheltering more than 80 people, including children, the Ukrainian government said Saturday.

There was no immediate word of casualties from the shelling of Mariupol’s elegant, city-center mosque. The encircled city of 446,000 people has endured some of Ukraine’s worst misery since Russia invaded, with unceasing barrages thwarting repeated attempts to bring in food, water and medicine, evacuate trapped civilians and even bury the dead. “They are bombing it (Mariupol) 24 hours a day, launching missiles. It is hatred. They kill children,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said d...

HOUSE OF REPS SENDS DELEGATES TO ACCESS THE DANGER OF TANKS FARMS IN KIRIKIRI TOWN COMMUNITY

By Leke Baiyewu At an investigative hearing organised by an ad hoc committee of the House of Representatives in Abuja on Wednesday, the residents and tank farm owners strongly differed on the location of petroleum depots in the communities. The House of Representatives has resolved to send a delegation to Ijegun, Kirikiri and Satellite Town areas of Lagos State to assess the level of danger posed by petroleum tank farms to residents of the communities. The residents demanded the relocation of the tank farms in the area, saying they posed threat to lives and property. The Chairman of the Satellite Town Forum, Mr Michael Imitimi, said Satellite Town remained a residential area and that the primary responsibility of government was to protect lives and property. Imitimi noted that it had been a residential area since 1976 and that it was earmarked and gazetted in 1975 to usher in former President Shehu Shagari’s administration. He said, “In 2012, we started seeing the invasion of tank farm...

GCR STORY SERES TITLE: DUCY WHO WANTS TO GET MARRIED - EPISODE 4

Written and composed by O.U. Daniel  Episode 4  Continued from Monday….. Three days passed by and the young man hasn’t called Ducy. She was waiting for that call like her life depended on it. Ducy is fond of giving guys her contact only for the list. The list simply means list-of guys-who-takes-care of-her-needs.  She had already placed the young man from that restaurant on the list as the person who would take care of her whenever she wanted to drink wine. She had already saved his contact number as ‘wine guy’.  In your wildest thought, you can imagine what she saves the contact of over 23 guys in her phone according to her needs – food guy, cloth guy, hair guy, indomie guy, gist guy, recharge card guy, data guy, fruit guy, bread guy, malt guy, market guy, shoe guy, club guy, yahoo guy, sharp guy, lover boy, church guy 1, church guy 2, gym guy, cab guy, hotel guy, and what have you.  Where Ducy lived was a single room where she and someone...
