I met this beautiful, hardworking and godloving lady somewhere at work. She's very nice and accommodating. She's also a graduate.
Let me quickly say that this lady is a decent lady - yeah, I went FBI on her; searched her socials: Facebook, insta, X etc and sincerely, all the pictures she took were done in her home (she stays with her mother).

As I interacted with her, I discovered she's a homely person. She doesn't club, doesn't smoke, doesn't drink. She's just all about stability.

I fell in love with her personality until I asked one last question.
"Sorry, I don't mean to pry. Please, how old are you?"

Without hesitation, this lady answered "I am 27"

Immediately I heard 27, I lost every single ounce of interest I had in her.
I didn't show it to her. I just said " Wow! You look so pretty, one would think you're 18. Thank God I asked."
She laughed and I could see her blush.

We discussed about other things, exchanged numbers and she left.
I have made up my mind never to call her. The age put me off and I don't even know why.


So dear ladies, do not tell men your age until the both of you are in a serious relationship. Never tell a man your age on the first date. Never!
Wait until you see some level of commitment or at least, until he got used to you a little.

Ladies should tell their ages to good guys and not someone like you that is not serious

This is good.However, we need electricity in this nation. In Delta state , there is a place called Otokutu, close to Warri.Those of us living there have not seen power supply for almost a year now(since May 2023).From Jomarho Event Centre at Otokutu , no light . We have contributed millions for the transformer to be fixed, yet no light , not even a blink for a year now .Generator has been disturbing our ears .I have written to NERC ,yet no positive response. Please if you know any NEPA(PHCN) executive, kindly inform him. By next month, we will be celebrating 1year in darkness

How did countries like US, UK and Canada have several languages? I thought it's only English they speak

LOVEALAIGBO:


You have to wonder about certain states (forget Lagos….that one is a special case) like Imo and Delta….especially Delta! You look around and you’re left wondering what all those borrowed billions were sunk into!

I wanted to say the same thing, what Delta State do with that money ? The only thing the governor wants to do now is using Julius Berger to build bridges across the state.Is that where all the debts came from? Abi he use some debt say settle court case. Place wey nor dey get light dey owe billions

BeautifulSolace:
I've been dating my boyfriend since 2021, and he's a good person whom I trust because he doesn't hide anything from me. Last year, he traveled to Lagos, creating a long-distance relationship. Despite not having evidence of cheating and maintaining strong communication, I often worry that all men can't stay without sex.

Should I be worried?"

Not true, he may not be cheating on you ...that does not mean he does not love sex.He may have self control to wait until he sees .Some men can only have sex with the lady that they are dating

So, considering the rate at which the price of foodstuffs keep increasing by the day, I decided to buy enough rice to last a while.
I went to a local market here in Southern Kaduna (where I work) to get my rice. These local markets are open only once a week, with traders and buyers from far and wide coming to make the most of it.
I was able to get local, clean rice at the rate of N1,500 per mudu (our unit of measurement here ). I bought 15 mudus, that's N22,500 and got 1 extra mudu free after scoping the mama to the best of my ability.
I think it was a good purchase considering how our brothers in the south are lamenting the cost of food over there.
What's the situation in your area?

1 mudu= 9 cups
15 mudus = 135 cups
21 cups = 1 basket
135 cups = 6.4 baskets

Forget that soapy thing..married men dey knack steady there ..Even ladies dey find who go knack them because of konji

I just laugh whenever I hear Nigerian women whose husbands live in abroad and they will be saying "My husband does not cheat"..Madam go to Dubai and you will see your husband in bed now with another girl doing different styles.The married men patronise prostitutes as if they will die if they do not knack.In fact the sound track I used to hear is more than Rihanna's voice .One lady said he has been dating the married man for more than 2 years ...and he wife dey Nigeria dey form my husband is in abroad

Hello good people of Nairaland.

Your honest and sincere opinions are highly needed on this.

My brother is about to get married on Sunday and just today, the girlfriend has been threatening to call off the marriage over a little issue. The issue being my brothers' refusal to travel back to our village with her since he needs to be at work on Tuesday, his reason being that there is no movement on Mondays and he is a Banker and needs to be present to open Vault on Tuesday.

Please in your sincere opinion, is my brother wrong and is it a good reason for the girl to threaten him with calling off the event.

Mods please help a brother, please push to front-page as it needs urgent attention.

Na small pikin sense dey worry her, please tell her to wake up.Is this an issue? Raising dust when there is none.When she sees problems in marriage, she will know, this one nor be problem.Finally, for threating me, I will travel that Sunday evening

Good morning all Nairalanders!


The title seems funny, right? Well, na reality. I received my salary yesterday in the evening 7pm or thereabouts but before 6am this morning it has finished.

Na only 5cups of rice, 3cups of garri and 2cups of beans with grandnut oil i bought the money don finish. No even for Maggi and sugar can you imagine? This Life no balance shaa

Some private companies are slave masters they don't care about minimum wage na only nlc dey make noise.

Which minimum wage? What can the nonsense minimum wage do for the common man? Minimum wage that can not buy a bag of rice,is that one a minimum wage? By the way,24hours is too long to finish a salary in Nigerial .I have finished my salary in less than 3hours

NotoriousBiggyS:
I stays in an apartment that has five 5flat , each flat occupied with 5 different tenants including myself. Before we uses direct electricity which we collectively pays monthly but recently got change to prepaid meter. With each fat with it own prepaid meter. The landlord refuse to bring another prepaid separately for the compound water Pumping Machine.
However the tenants come to dialogue and agreed to tap electricity from my own prepaid meter to the pumping machine in agreement that each tenant will be paying me 1000naira monthly. So I want to know if 5k can be enough to run pumping machine for a month?

It depends on the usage .Ask yourself, how many times will you pump per day?Is your light constant ?How often do you empty the tank or finish the water in the tank?

Middleborn:


1Nzd is equal to 59 cents.

That is 30 Nzd =1770 US cents . Since 1 dollar 1000 naira, that means 1cent = 10 naira.So, 1770 US cents = N17,700 per hour, for 10 working hours a day , it will be 17700×10 =N177000

Good day Niralanders,

I was just wondering, from the topic above, do foreigners really fancy Nigerian education to enrol in it?


Throughout my almost 14years as a graduate, I always see school fees for indigenes, non indigenes and foreigners, so this came to my mind again, if people travel all the way from abroad to study in Nigeria?

Yes other African countries .I could remember someone from my unit in ourschool fellowship from a French speaking country

I greet you all Nairalanders.

Please permit me to share this thing my brother is doing to me.

As my life was about to become useless in the village, I came to the city to stay with my older brother and learn phone repairs.

My plan is to have this handwork so that when i gain admission, i wont rely totally only on education which has failed many in the country.

But my blood brother I'm staying with is behaving unkind to me as though i am a total stranger to him. Even total strangers deserve better treatment.

I'm only an apprenctice and yet to start making money. Most of the days, i trek to the place and return because I dont have transport.

He leave house first before me and return before me too. Before I would come back, he would cook noodles and finish it, washed the pot and everything and keep them clean as though nothing happened. Sometimes he eat outside and come back home and ignore me.

Except there's another way for me, that is how I would go hungry throughout the night and as early as possible in the morning, he would leave the house without reasoning anything food.

I'm seriously starving. I thought he would share the little he has with me till I also start making money. Is this how a senior brother should behave with the junior one?

He's being unkind to me and now I feel like hiding the Garri I brought from the village from him.

But is this how we should behave as blood brothers?

He can't even be there for me to free from this apprenticeship.

My guy I know you feel but do not hide your garri from him.God looks at the heart when he wants to bless ,nor be who first come this world be criteria for God's blessings .Give him your garri to eat, add sugar join am...when you go make am, the thing go loud
