"I never crossed a road" This were the words that came out of a CU undergraduate during a chit chat with a friend of mine. He just met this young lady and they got a little more friendlier. So during one of their encounters, the girl declared to him that she never caused a road in her life. How can that be possible? Besides, there are roads withing her campus and I'm sure she crosses them. Maybe she meant a different kind of road. Perhaps the trunk A roads popularly known and the Express. Boy oh boy, what a spoilt brat that would be. And the story doesn't end there. She also declared how much she gets at the beginning of the session, #3 million pocket money she told my friend.

That was supposed to help her master the art of financial management. She's supposed to save as much as she can for her summer holidays each year so she spend the left over during the annual trip. My question now is, would you spoil your child to that level. I mean people can acquire wealth even beyond one's imagination but that don't mean you should train your children in such a way that they get everything they want. That too me is not the best way to raise a responsible child.

This is purely for discussion purposes so there's no need arguing if it's true or not.

Maybe she gets 3 million. Good. But to talk say she never cross road for her life, that's the biggest lie of the century.

She never crossed a road... she never faced and scaled a hurdle..

Not everyone is jaki or kare that will be crossing roads anyhow...where are you going, where are you coming from? Who send you message?

What one person considers spoiling is another person's chicken change. If you are worth billions then 3 million Naira is a drop in the bucket. 'Sides isn't it better to have her daddy providing for her than a sugar daddy?

Abi is not the same Naija where a man will be shakaraing a girl with "Am I your fada?" ehn ehn now that her father is doing the giving what is the lalakokofefe or are ya just pissed off she can look at anything you wanna offer and say "I'll take your teshere kobokobo and raise ya a million. ...or three"

She should carry go ojare!!

If I have the money, why not

that na change to Dangote's 2 daughters..

abiki: Maybe she gets 3 million. Good. But to talk say she never cross road for her life, that's the biggest lie of the century.

I didn't believe it myself but on a second thought I thought maybe she meant the highways so no need for argument.

I also heard about some Nigerians not even having anything to do on the mainland of Lagos. The closest they've even been is the Oshodi crossover to MM2 and from there out of the country and back to the Island again. This means some people are simply detached from the realities of an average Nigerians life. The longest power outage they've ever had in their home is a few seconds because there's always a power plant with an automatic switch over.

I know one day e go better.

Lol. Not crossing the road is now something to brag about?

I know people who haven't boarded public buses before. They have drivers who take them everywhere. Such people may have had no cause to cross a major road before.
@ topic, If I was a billionaire, such money would mean little to me, but I would emphasise on balance and moderation in the child's life to avoid raising a spoilt brat!
