Handwork pays big time. Your ability to persevere in life determines how successful you will be i.e there is no success without any trace of failure. Failure isn't the end of the world. Shit happens : life is not fair however u r d only one who can turn things around yourself. 3 Likes |

Thats because they truly love you and don't want you derailed... You won't appreciate it now but will when you grow and get married. Trust me, as a female child they have really done well for you to preserve you cos i would equally do same to my female kids too. Your future husband would appreciate these more and be grateful to them. kannyluv: |

Early 2000, I was working in a very known bank, my branch was somewhere far in the north. One faithful day, a typical hausa man walked into the bank on a busy Monday morning, he appeared a lil dirty with babariga, nicker and bathroom slippers; he walked to a staff and spoke in hausa language. Hausa man: How can I open a pocket to keep money here? (in hausa language) The staff he was talking to understood what he meant, but most bankers sabi form fake levels (I don't do that), The first staff he met wasn't an hausa by tribe but understands and speaks hausa well, the guy just directed the man to another lady(staff) who was from the western part of the country, he directed the man to her not to assist but to have a share of the fun. The hausa man said the same thing in hausa to the lady "How can I open a pocket to keep money here". She burst into laughter uncontrollably and pointed to another lady for him to go and say the same thing to her, I noticed this thrash from my desk and walked up to the man while he was walking to the third person he was directed to. I greeted him in a traditional manner and with smiles, I asked how I can help him, he responded in hausa, and from that moment, I communicated with him in hausa. He said the same 'pocket' thing to me and I ushered him to sit on the guest seat at my desk. I got him a cup of tea from which I also seaped. He later opened up to me that he wanted to 'keep' 10,000naira in the bank. I showed some excitement and said YES, it's a good idea, but I will appreciate he 'keep' more than Ten thousand. To cut the story short, this same man made an initial deposit of 7million naira that morning, but I made sure that the first staff he met was the one who carried all the boxes of money from his car into the bulk room (while I wan doing this, the man smiled, gave me a thumbs up sign and pinched my ear) two days later, he invited me to his house, I met his wives and children (two of which were Masters student in the UK) and one a college student in US. I later left with another 4million cool naira to 'keep' for him. This man later had several hundreds of millions in his 'bank pocket', which were in my care. We became family friends, he was so connected to the who-is-who in the state; I used his influence to get jobs for 4 of my family members and 1 friend, all in FG establishments. But, he forced me to remain in the bank, each time I get better offer. He told the regional manager that he will withdraw all he has in the bank once his brother(na me be dat oo) leaves. So, that made the bank to increase my pay speedily even b4 due time. Believe me, when someone walks into the bank with a well starched native and tailored suit the person might be a begger. Same goes the other way round. LESSON: Never look down on ANY HUMAN. 24 Likes 4 Shares |

Tosbi:wrong!!! you really think people have in mind to preserve one when they hurt them, if not to feel good about their own selves?.. that is if some emotionally weak victims did not take their own lives before the future comes. |

to never look down on myself even amidst the success of my pairs....that there's time for everything.... that I can achieve anything if I commit my heart to it....that people dont really care about u, esp when ure in ur down moments...to trust God in every situation, because He knows the way...to put God first and family second,every other thing is secondary |

ayesco202: It is quite deep, it takes a lot of maturity and sense of forgiveness to do this. Even my wife did not want to hear anything about them, she was very angry with them. But she did not believe the first guy will request for my CV and give me a good job. |
