Oga. Truth other the matter, is that more kids will be given birth to because of the tough times.
See, the only consolation struggling people have now is to go home and nack. They cannot go chill in joints, drink beer and wack point and kill, they cannot carry olosho or have side chicks. The only enjoyment is to go home and pour the frustration out by nacking madam. grin
Abeg, give the guy a break. E don happen e don happen, na solution him need.

FAMILY PLANNING;
Condom, postinor, abortion, vasectomy, IUD etc. No excuse whatsoever.

The OP and his cohorts are useless people. The day they ever make it in life, this world would have ended.

If you're living in a city like Lagos, I'd advise you to move your family to your hometown, probably your family house where you will not be paying for rent. And if you can not live in your family house, renting a room and parlour, face me I face you, in any town would be more easier. Then you remain in city, if it is possible to be sleeping at the farm you work, good.

Compared to raising five children, it is cheap. If the useless OP and his moronic supporters use condoms every time they fvck their stoopid wives, he would not have reached five children. Why do you people like condoning irresponsibility? Why? Why do you people like dodging the aspect of making hard decisions to better una lives? Suffer no dey tire una?

Ranting. Ranting. Ranting.

I have decided to rant out my predicaments on this forum today.

What is the way out of poverty for me?

One inlaw is even living with us, making it 8 in number, all in one room.

This thing don come big pass me.

I know most of you here would blame me for impregnating a woman to give birth to that number of children but then, life is life. It happens like that sometimes.

They say a poor man's prayer is "e go better" but instead of things to get better in Nigeria, everyday things get worse.

Truth is, except I drive myself out of this mess to a better life for me and my children, this poverty that is so stricken will likely be extended to my children, which I really don't want.

No two ways about it except ...

But like a car without tyres, can it move even if it has fuel? Definitely no.

For 4 days now, I sleep outside in an abandoned car because of financial war at home. I can't go back home and I even feel like never to go back there but should I abandon them like that and run away? To where?

When I went to the market the other day with 5k to buy food items for the house, I was crying and talking to myself on my way back because I came back with almost nothing.

Nigeria have succeed to plug life out of poor Nigerians. The poor cannot breathe again. Let's die and go.

Advice: never give birth when you are not financially strong. Unfortunately, I've learned my lesson the hard way.

Life happens.

How do I help this family better than I am trying?

Wishing you the best in all you do.
this pro tinubu supporter is ranting too.

A driver for a farm.

It is good that you are a driver but you are wasting your skill and time working for a salary of 38k per month.
Look for commercial vehicle, you don't need salary job of 38k. You need job that will allow you to take money home everyday. Either intra state or inter states, you will be amazed at how much you will be making on good days. But lazy drivers prefer to work for monthly peanuts

Lolz.
That is you thinking properly.
See, in front of my office. Ie on the roadside, you have women selling foodstuff, fish, vegetables, all sorts. Their daughters assist them. Funny thing is when they get to a certain age, all the young girls of that set will get impregnated. Usually by some bus conductor, mechanic, but the prince of them all, the most sort after is the Keke Marwan ride rider.
That is how schooling ends. Most stay with the guy for 2 months, then back to the mother with extra burden. So the circle of poverty continues.
Which brings me to issues raised by you.
I often wonder why they can nack, but cannot use even cheap daily pills. Why they cannot take cheap depo Provera, that prevents pregnancy for 3,6 9 months.

1stGenAmerican:


Leaders are irresponsible but so are people—where does it all end? Saying it has happened is like trying to kill a fire after allowing it to grow out of control.
Food for thought—What if this guy and 99 other guys with the same number of household members took the advice that you gave this guy—that would be 500 children and 300 adults trying to survive on 8 million naira. 800 people is more than enough to populate a village and 8 million naira isn’t enough to sustain everyone in the village so theoretically, that village will be poverty stricken. Those 500 children are expected to grow up and thrive in a poverty stricken place with irresponsible leaders where the resources are already stretched past the limit. If 100 of the wives take the advice you’ve given and start selling akara in a village of 800 people, who will they sell akara to and where will they get the money to buy enough for the akara sellers’ businesses to be successful?


You're so pessimistic.

The only way out that I will suggest is that you should try and include farming join the work you are doing and garden, then cut down the cost e.g instead of paying for taxi I use motorcycle a lot for any distance that's not more than 400km without shame. am in to it too.

I have zero pity for the likes of you. In fact, even if I had the means to assist, I will NEVER help people like you.

Do u know why? I will tell you. It's because some of you have decided not to have sense. Do you think those that gave birth to a child because that's the number they can afford to cater for are fools?

I don't know how some of you reason. The hardship you were facing wasn't enough, you choose to drag innocent kids into it. Now, you're running away from your responsibilities.

I will tell you the same thing that I always say to 'irresponsible parents'. If you can't train your kids, go and sell them. There will be willing buyers who will help you lessen the burden.

Thanks for saying it the way it is....

Most people in this part of the world don't do smart forecast before they jump into an unpredictable pool...

He puts himself into the mess, if he's lucky maybe one or two of these kids will do well layer in the future (but still under probability).... Excess kids without proper training while growing mostly likely end up street touts..

To make matter worst, he doesn't even have good and stable main hustle not to even talk of side hustle....

So far you can't control the birth rate of your family you should face the consequences, even billionaires are given child to just one or two children you just common labourer having 5 children do you wish to resell them? When next you come back to this life you will know how to control your birth rate

If this is true, please don’t give up.
I grew up in a large family too. It may be hard in the initial stage, but as time goes on, things will get better.

Ignore what those People are telling you… You have made the errors by giving birth to 5 kids (you should not hate your kids or have any regret…. Your plan right now should be WAY FORWARD) How to get rid of poverty, and make life better for you and your family.

Like I wrote, please don’t give up. A way forward should be your plan right now.


And please, I may not be very rich, but if there is a way someone can verify this story, please bring up another thread, let’s see how we can assist you. I can still spare few cash, and I know others will do the same as well.

Thank you and God bless you.
