Politics / Re: Protest: We will step in If Looting, Destruction Continue - CDS Musa by 10thTenthMan: 12:02am On Aug 03
fergie001:


Gen. Christopher Musa
Chief of Defence Staff


Dear Sir,

Please when will you step in as Bandits and Fulani herdsmen continue their attacks and murder of innocent Nigerians Sir? It will be nice to know when you will take that seriously Sir?!

Or are you interested in only military contracts and purchases to make money off the insecurity all around Nigeria ? Please come and tell us when I can travel from Abuja to Port Harcourt or Lagos without fear of being kidnapped Sir? So that I can see the country side in my Country and mother land.

Why have you folded your arms watching the mayhem in Zamfara State Sir? They are worst than the protesters Sir.

Why have your military top rank made insecurity a business Sir? With little or no probe of your financial dealings and contracts, Sir. Sir, can you roll out all your military forces in collaboration with other sections of the Armed Forces in Nigeria and deal with bandits and Biko haram , Sir?

Sir, they killed poor farmers in States like Zamfara and went beyond protests. They are armed with AKs and have even attacked farmers in the market who have gone to trade their goods Sir. As the good warrior that you are Sir when are you going after them? They have murdered police men and military personnel in cold blood Sir, but you seem confused and don’t know what to do Sir to people who are right within your territorial space Sir? Why the confusion and lack of action Sir? Why the lack of intelligence Sir?

Sir, are you aware that the level of insecurity has added immensely to the suffering of Nigerians through food scarcity due to threats and attacks by bandits and herdsmen who insist on illegal levies before farmers are allowed to plant, tend and harvest their crops?Are you aware that those who cannot pay are killed ? Sir your children are abroad Sir and you are among the affluent in Nigeria. You can eat and munch as much as you want Sir, but many Nigerians Cannot. You have allocation and goodwill that ensures you have food, water, electricity, security escorts, etc.

Sir, as a true warrior that you claim you are (or feign to be), since you want to show how tough you can be with protesters, can you go face them, the Bandits and “Bokos” and Fulani herds men? Can you conduct appropriate surveillance of your territorial space and deal decisively with these bandits like you want to deal with the violent protesters?


Please Sir, I will like to hear from your head that is full of sense Sir. Please inform us, Sir.

Is God angry with Nigeria over Muslim-Muslim Ticket?
Unless with want to deceive ourselves, things are not normal again in Nigeria.


God does not care about that. In fact we can equally argue that he (God) even allowed it to happen and hence should blame himself/itself and not us. So he will be unhappy and punish Nigerians because some people choose to support the decisions of some old senile Men (politicians)? Why did God not intervene.

Perhaps we should be the ones unhappy with God for allowing all these to happen despite the powers to intervene and cause positive change.
Business / Re: You Cannot Dictate Price Of Fuel, Bend Existing Rules – Arewa Youths To Dangote by 10thTenthMan: 12:21am On Jul 29
treesun:
The Arewa Youth Assembly, AYA, has pleaded with billionaire businessman, Aliko Dangote to respect and obey Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL as the country’s regulatory body.


The group reminded Dangote that before the establishment of his refinery the NNPCL, NUPRC and NMDPRA had been existing as regulatory bodies.

“It will be very selfish for Dangote to make them bend protocols to serve his personal interest,” Arewa youth said in a press conference addressed by its Speaker, Mohammed Salihu Danlami n Abuja on Sunday.


According to the youth group, the billionaire businessman should know these are sectors dealing with regulations and should try to stand by the rules and nothing more.

“Even the Dangote Groups, he heads has its own rules and regulations and all stakeholders must adhere to them.

“Dangote from our findings wants to detect the Prices crude should be sold to him which is against the principle of world best practice. He wants the Bonny Light crude to be given to him at a rate he wants and wants the NUPRC to selfishly comply with his selfish ageNda to force the IOCs to be giving him all the Bonny Light crude oil forgetting it’s a willing buyer-willing-seller relationship.


“More of our findings show he wants NMDPRA not to license anyone else to bring in product. They said no! He blackmails them and is trying to incite Nigerians against NMDPRA, that they are giving license to marketers who bring in substandard products into the country.

“We are calling on the National Assembly to make public the Laboratory results from his own refinery to the public because information we are getting from different quarters shows the Product is substandard.

“We know Mr Dangote has been operating all his life in an industry that doesn’t have regulation, but the Oil/Energy industry has rules and regulations. He should come down from his horse so all parties can work for the interest of our nation unless he has an ulterior motive of trying to scuttle the administration of Renewed Hope agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.


“In specific terms, We stand to make it clear to the public that the Nigerian Government is only after Excellence. Dangote should be a yardstick of quality and stop parading up and down for his selfish desire. We demand that Dangote apologizes to the government and other business competitors for deforming their character or face the law.”

IGNORANT PEOPLE.


NNPC LIMITED IS NOT A REGULATORY BODY! FACT!!

THE TWO REGULATORY BODIES ARE NUPRC AND NMDPRA AND AS PER THE REFINERY OPERATIONS IT IS STRICTLY THE NMDPRA. IF THEY LACK THE KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION ABOUT THIS SIMPLE FACT,THEN I DO NOT NEED TO WASTE TIME CALLING OUT THE REMAINING IDIOCY IN THE REST OF THEIR MESSAGE.

MrJames007:
Really?

Are they that bad? Thought of selling my car on their platform sometime ago but didn't have time to take it for inspection. Hmm


So I will simply tell you the process and when you go, you decide based on your experience.

-When you get to their office you tell them if you want to sell or buy a car.

-You, want to sell.

-They will request for the Car Papers. All Papers must be complete for the deal to go through.

-Then they assign a technician to inspect the car. The one I met was a lady in their VI Office. She was good. In fact she identified some minor things I didn’t know were wrong with my SUV.

- Then the technician gives feedback on the results of the inspection.

- You car is then entered into a bidding process. You will see a TV with a sort of table/Chart with prices coming in as bids. The bid lasts for a specified period. Can’t remember whether 15 minutes or 30 minutes.

-Then the highest amount on the bid board is what they will tell you that they will pay.

-Cars45 bidding board stopped at 1,000,050 naira. My 2008/2009 Highlander SUV was 1,000,050. One million and fifty thousand naira only.

-Now I wasn’t selling the car because it had issues. I just wanted to change the car because I felt I deserved a new and wanted to use the money from the sales and boost my funds for a new car. That way I can expand my options.

- I jejely took my car and went home. Went on some sites and posted it myself. put for sale sign on it and informed friends in groups etc.

-Sold it for 3m and rested.



To me o, that bidding is not real. Those figures aren’t real. To me, those figures are manipulated. To me o, some boys are in the office pressing figures with claim that people are bidding for the Cars. You cannot grossly under value a car today and sell it 3 times the price it was sold to you, by tomorrow. No!

Give them a try. Perhaps your experience might be different. But to me they grossly undervalued my vehicle.

Learn from the failure of Cars45 Abi Wetin be their name and their fake bidding.

People will sit behind computers at the back of their office punching fake bidding and they claim the bidding is from various people around Nigeria. Lies. People are punching fake figures on the bidding board then arrive at a final bid figure that grossly undervalues your car,intentionally. They undervalue your car claiming the inspection report determined the bid amounts. In two days they have sold your car 2 to 3 times the value they bought from you.


Anyway I do not think you run that same business model.

Make I hold my peace first. 😄😄😄

I wish you well in your business endeavors and venture.

Politics / Re: Minimum Wage: Why Can't Nigeria Pay Per Hour? by 10thTenthMan: 6:39pm On Jul 18
The typical assumption is as follows for Civil Servants in Nigeria.

Average hours worked per day in most arms of the Civil Service is 8 Hours.

Per week is 40 Hours. As on the average they are expected to work 5 days per week (Monday to Friday).

Per month is 160 Hours of Work.

At 70,000 Naira, you get 437.5 Naira per hour. That is about 27 Cents Per Hour.

If you do per hour pay it will require monitoring all the workers to ensure they put in the time.

Most of them will revolt at the end, as many are barely punctual or regular.

Wow! My neighbor produced yams from her farm, a very bountiful harvest. She's selling her yams. It's not cheap. I want to buy the yams at market rate from her. She refuses to sell to me, but insists I look for a shop owner in the market, let that shop owner come and buy from her, then sell to me.

No... The shop owner is not selling to me at the price he bought; he's selling to me at a premium, in addition to the market value I should have paid if I bought directly from my neighbor. This premium, has nothing to do with Nigeria law or government. No value added, no tax paid, no CSR, nothing!!! Just earn free money from me!!!

Oh... That shop owner turns out to be my neighbor's younger brother. The shop even belongs to my neighbor.


Again, I say WOW!!!

Funny man. He is funny.

A force filled up to 98% of people who have failed at almost everything in life. A force filled with born criminals who want to cover up their crime by wearing the Uniform of the Nigerian Police. Those who have failed at THE MOST BASIC survival strategies, professions, occupations and trades. They are those that join the Nigerian Police. Nigerians join the Nigerian Police as a last resort and a final straw to clutch at for survival. It is filled with the runt of the society.

NO SANE NIGERIAN WITH SKILLS AND A BRIGHT FUTURE JOINS THE NIGERIAN POLICE. The Nigerian Police Force and its officers in the rank and file are adjudged as CURSED!!!!

I mean in which other profession and employer can its officers engage boldly and brazenly in:



-Sponsoring of Kidnapping

-Framing of innocent citizens by planting drugs, bullets and guns in their houses and vehicles

-Covering of crime including when minors are raped

-Sponsoring of Armed robbery

-Divulging of critical information to criminals

-Rape and Sexual Violence (even in their own police stations)

-Torture and human rights violations

-Drunkenness and public disorder

-Personnel recruitment racketeering

-Brutal Murder (not just any type of murder. BRUTAL MURDER)

-Dealing in human parts trade for rituals

-Dealing in human parts for organ trade

-Extortion

-Shameless Bribery

-Kidnapping (Arresting) of innocent citizens to collect illegal bail money

-Mounting of illegal toll gates and check points

-Stealing of death benefits of their own colleagues and sleeping with wives/daughters of dead colleagues as payment to release death benefits

-Setting up illegal water ways checking points for extortion of boat drivers from riverine and marine communities dwellers

-Supporting of and engagement in election rigging

-Profiling of ANY youth with a mobile device as a fraudster

-Profiling of youths as deviants due to their dressings, piercings, and tattoos

-Petty stealing

- Participation, support and Facilitation of Illegal Bunkering

-Embezzlement

-Intimidation and oppression of citizens

BabaDelta1:


This is totally not correct. What part of Canada are you? In my province, people have 2-4 jobs and reject shifts at will. You may be out of job if you are in places like Ontario, BC etc. Na you dey find big man area to settle in. Strategize before leaving Nigeria, I will recommend you go for hard to find skilled jobs like healthcare etc and go to a province where they need people. Na you go tire for work


Very True.

Frankly I want to avoid this debate about Germany Vs Canada in this topic. So I will leave that.

I support your opinion though. When I moved (through PR-PNP), I noticed a lot of People then wanted BC, AB, ON. I “ Jejely” considered cost of living, quiet place to raise kids if I get married, where to easily buy a house, a conservative province, etc etc. Arriving Sask, the jobs were there. And even till date the same Company that recruited people , especially students that I arrived with in Sask, are still having positions open. Till date! And they pay from 18 CAD Per Hour for Child Care Providers in Child Care Homes. Most of the Ladies and students went into Child Care. The Province also enjoys the Child Care Benefits of up to 500 CAD per month per child if you are a PR. Women with 3 kids here are getting 1500 CAD which helps with ALL Utility bills plus groceries, while they work two jobs for those that want to.

Back then, No one was looking at SK. Everyone wanted top and warmer provinces. I am not saying they are wrong for doing so. It is just that as you said, Strategy is important. I intentionally avoided those MAJOR CITIES AND PROVINCES. Today, even within CA as a country, many citizens and residents (people) are moving to Sask. due to lower cost of living and less Social issues like the drug addiction and homelessness in BC, especially Vancouver.

Like everything in life there are disadvantages. First, it is a colder province and generally colder country than many others including Nigeria. Also, if you are looking for the Nigerian life of merriment and noise and large population of people you won’t get it. Most of Canada and Saskatoon is quieter than most Nigerian Cities. Meaning, you might miss the social interactions you easily have in Nigeria, as the entire country is a “mind your business and be polite” sort of country. Also, Nigerian’s don’t interact much or support one another much as the Arabs and Asians (especially Indians) do. Nigerians still have this evil spirit of unhealthy competition and competitiveness where they are only excited and appear WHEN IT IS TIME TO SHOW OFF, SHOW SUCCESS, DISPLAY WEALTH AND RUB IT IN THE FACE OF FELLOW NIGERIANS!!! That is all Nigerians are usually good for. The “pepper them” ; “show them we are ballers and living large” and the “See? I better pass you, my car fine pass your own” mentality. These bad attitudes and lack of love and support for fellow countrymen is still rife. They may claim and lie that this is not true, but ask them why and how Indians and Arabs are taking over the country? They may claim that they will assist, but do not count on any Nigerian 100%. HAVE solid multiple backup plans in case Nigerian fails you. Someone says it is because we all know ourselves to be evil. Because you can help a Nigerian and then run into big trouble in many ways! The person’s argument is that Nigerians also know how to be evil and criminal and dubious. And when they are in that state, they forget the good you have done to them and help you have rendered them. ''When they want to be criminally minded for selfish and greed inspired and motivated gains, a Nigerian will easily kill his own mother and drink her blood.''

Fuckyoumod:
why the need to study French first?

Because the Canadian Permanent Residency Program is Point Based. Points are awarded based on stipulated factors including Age, Various Levels of Educational Qualifications, Score/Band in IELTS and Score/Band in French Language, Whether you have a relative in Canada, Years Work Experience, Whether you have Canadian Specific Schooling and Work Experience, etc. etc. as Factors considered and then points are offered.

Once you apply, you will select the options that hold true for you and points will be awarded based on these. NOTE. YOU CANNOT LIE OR PRESENT FALSE CLAIMS. FIRSTLY FOR THINGS LIKE LANGUAGES YOU WILL UPLOAD DETAILS OF YOUR CERTIFICATES AND YOUR SCORES. IF YOU LIE YOU RISK A BAN OF 5 TO ALMOST 10 YEARS IN SOME INSTANCES.

Now the thing is that the competition is now so tough that to scale above the rest of applicants like yourself , you will need to add a second language. In the Past, all you needed was IELTS. Then it became tough that the IELTS had to be of a very high score/band to grab the maximum points as possible. Nowadays it is a bit tougher as more people are trying to leave Nigeria and even Africa in general and Asia. Nigerians are not the only ones leaving their country. On the list of Countries that Japa to Canada, Nigeria is not even top 5 from the last statistics revealed.

So the competition is getting tougher so much so that one of the sure ways of HIGHER POINTS and Quicker Nomination is to have and show proficiency in French + English Language by writing both Languages exams.

Politics / Re: Kalabari Is 100% Igbo by 10thTenthMan: 3:42am On Jul 03
I do understand where the poster is coming from. The praise singing of Asari Dokubo in this video sounds definitely Igbo Language. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT KALABARI LANGUAGE. ANY KALABARI SPEAKER WILL TELL YOU THAT IS NOT KALABARI AND UNLESS YOU ARE CONVERSANT WITH IGBO LANGUAGE, A KALABARI PERSON WILL NOT UNDERSTAND ANYTHING SAID IN THAT VIDEO.

Igbo Language and Kalabari are not the same.

English, Igbo and Kalabari for example:

God - Chukwu/Chineke - Tamuno

Good - Nnma- Ibi

Bad - Ojor - Si/gbruru (don’t confuse with Gburu which means yam in Kalabari)

Come - Bia - bo

Go - Gawa - So

Cloth - Akwa - Kapa

Please - Biko - Pasisi

Bush - Ofia - Piri

Head - Ishi - Sibi

House - Ulo - Wari

Road - Uzor - Etela

Market - Ahia - Ogambiri

Dog - Nkita - Obiri

Gun - Egbe - Alagba

Woman/Female - Nwayin - Erebo/ Ereme

Man/Male - Nwoke/Nwobia- Oyibor

Small/Little - Ntakiri - Kala/ Iru

Thank you - imela- E miyete or Emiete

And I could go on and on ...

But there is the general acceptance that due to certain factors especially with the Kalabaris being strong middlemen in the slave trade, just like the Igbanis, the slave trade and general general trade of goods and merchandise led to Igbos settling within Kalabari Communities. Intermarriages happened also, as wives were sought from Igbo land. There has now been a lot of mixing. I doubt if there is a Kalabari family (especially from the major Abonemma, Buguma, Obonoma, etc) without an Igbo grand or great grand relatives. Many Kalabari Men marry Igbo Wives and the Igbo Wives have been known to be very compatible with Kalabari Husbands. Igbo Men marrying Kalabari Women is not so common.

Was relaxing on my verandah sometime last week and i witnessed something that had me thinking up till this moment.

For over 2 days a particular pigeon had been visiting my compound and i dismissed it in my subconscious as nothing peculiar. This particular morning though, the pigeon swooped in again, hopped here and there and in one crazy frenzy picked up a piece of discarded rubber material and took off. My eyes followed it and surprisingly it's destination wasn't far, it flew to a piece of erected metal beam opposite my house, curiosity got the better of me and i stood up and observed.
Behold, it had been picking up twigs and sorts for it's partner. The partner was building a nest, and when it arrived she collected the piece of rubber material from the male, tried fitting it in the nest and threw it away when it didn't fit. The male flew took off immediately to get another twig. I somehow forgot about the incident not until this morning i can see both lovebirds cuddled up in a complete nest.

Bam! It hit. Epiphany or whatever you call it. Men are naturally built to be providers and women are home makers.

Don't know what's wrong with this generation and the hype about being woke with women shi. Sounds like a homosexual propaganda to me.
I love women, smart ones, beautiful ones, every one...

It's my duty to provide for the woman i love with what i have at my disposal and it's her responsibility to support me. Together we shall make our abode a Haven. Simple...

Any other thing? Na una sabi.
I'm not weak, neither am i lazy.
I only go women that have interest in me.
I don't simp.

But say i no go provide, that one na lie.




So this is basically instinct. The birds are acting based on instinct. Instinct in Animals. There are animal species who also birth and abandon their mates and even their young. There is the argument that those who are R-Selected species birth large offspring and are generally small and fast growing and hence evolution has created this instinct in them. While the K-Selected organisms like Homo Sapiens, Chimps, Blue Whales, Dolphins, Bird species, etc are slow growing, live in more stable environments and produce offspring they can give a lot of care to to increase their chances of success and survival.

Humans as K-Selected species have instinct and (higher) intelligence especially because we possess the ability to store and transmit and transfer information, wisdom and knowledge and can think in a multi variate manner.

IN MY OPINION HUMANS OF TODAY ARE SUFFERING FROM THEIR OWN “INTELLIGENCE”. Denying what they are supposed to do, and accepting what they are not supposed to. A woman hears that a man broke the heart of another woman, and bam she says she will not mow same happen to her, despite the instinct in her telling her to date, get married and bear children. Same thing happens to men who are driven by instinct of mating with as many women as possible. They refuse to use intelligence to control this urge in the society of today. Forgetting their life expectancy reduces with uncontrollable sexual desires and activities.


Both instinct and intelligence need to be properly used and deployed. Humans have instinct and Humans have Intelligence.
- Instinct is the go forth and procreate urge in men.
-Instinct is the feel the urge to have sex during ovulation.
-Instinct is Kill your fellow man and take his possessions if you are more powerful.
-Instinct is look for and accept the flashiest and richest man in the society
-Instinct is someone mistakenly steps on your toe and you shove and push and punch the person. Reacting like an animal would.

I can give you many other instinctive responses and reactions. But the above are enough. Intelligence is realizing that instinct (at time and many times) in todays world might produce the wrong Results and outcomes.

Apply instinct as a fuel and motivating factor for hustling and creating value and survival. It will help you for your instinct to be sharp. And when it comes to using intelligence to override instinct , do so with thought and think actions and responses through. There are always exceptions to applying instinct and/or intelligence.

Within our own species and the intelligence we gather and our instinct, HUMAN SPECIES THRIVE BETTER WHEN the Female focuses all or most of her strength in Child raising and family unit catering and management. Decision makers and policy makers (if not driven by commercial greed) should encourage a society where the females whether with a career or not spend more time in taking care of the family unit while the male folk do the main hustling.

Some men argue that when a woman is economically independent she becomes haughty, hard headed and difficult to tell what to do. While this may be true, pick your mates wisely. Ensure she is someone who will show ultimate respect and regard for you regardless of her personal wealth. And regardless of her personal wealth, also play your role AS THE MAN and Work hard and provide the best you can.

Of course we know that admissions to US colleges are typically skewed against African Students (Nigerians especially) and in favour of Asians and Europeans. So in this regard the “Dog Whistle” applies.

Personally, he won’t fool me with this. While I am conservative, I would have voted for some other Democrat over Trump. But definitely not Biden. We await the sentencing for his cases in court and see how these will affect his race. Personally with Joe Biden’s son battling with the courts and Biden mentioning his desire not to interfere, I feel they are cooking something for Trump and Biden will be like “don’t look at me! I didn’t even interfere in my own Son’s trial”!

Your thoughts if you have the time.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Trump Pledges Green Cards For Foreign Graduates Of US College If Re-elected by 10thTenthMan: 5:12pm On Jun 21
God1000:
Why is he making a U-turn now, no more mass deportation.

Donald trump is unstable, he will say something today and contradicts himself tomorrow, maybe the fear of losing election is setting in


Personally, I don’t fancy him either. Neither do I like Joe. Most of us who prefer Texas (Cypress specifically) have seen some of the challenges of mass uncontrolled illegal Imigration, even when we are far away from the main border crossing points.

But let us speak the truth about him, Trump. He has always been against ILLEGAL IMIGRATION. ILEGAL. Not the legal kind. ILLEGAL.

Students are Legal in the US. They have legal status/right to temporary stay to study and complete their programs. After studying is where the problem is. And this is what he is bringing closure to.

Anyway from this move, he is trying to appeal to the pro Imigration liberal/left wing. However, I do not personally see it as a smart move. The students themselves cannot vote. Only their relatives who are legal and qualified to vote in the US can vote for him on this ground. Additionally, Joe Biden can easily do the same and even more. This will not give him the much edge that he seeks.

Additionally, this will only imply that only those who can contribute significantly to the US economy and who have been integrated into the system for 3-6 years have the opportunity for the green card. Many people (including Nigerians) will seriously seek admission into 3-4 years courses in the US if he becomes president. A course that will end before the next election of 2028.

Family / Re: Happy Fathers Day: 7 Important Roles ONLY FATHERS Can Play: by 10thTenthMan: 3:09pm On Jun 16
Very Well. A good list.

From time I had made up my own list and it is as below. Many years of being a Man, I have not still had or seen any reason to change, modify or remove anything in my list:



1.LEAD AND HEAD THE HOUSE/FAMILY UNIT

Physically and Spiritually! Lead it. If the woman likes let her work in Shell or TotalEnergies and you are just a Vulcanizer. Wisely Head the Woman and the Children. Lead the family unit!



2. PROTECT

Get physically fit. Push some weights. Have a sense of identifying risks and impending harm. Do your part. Leave the rest to God. Get Street Smart! Keep physically fit. Have the propensity for violence and still keep that possibility under control until when defending the LIFE of a loved one.



3. PROVIDE

You better Hustle. Join your mates for legit work. Go into tech/online jobs. Go and make money. Even if she earns more than you. Have some shame. Tell her you will handle any little thing that she knows your salary/business can handle.



4. BE PRESENT

BE VERY WISE HERE. Note that being always available/present is a give and take between progress and stagnation at time. Balance it out. Be wise and create a healthy balance between hustling and presence. The more you go out to earn the less you will be present and vice versa. Strike a good balance and DO NOT LET ANYONE DECEIVE OR BLACKMAIL YOU AS A MAN. Go and spend the necessary time (whether indoors on your computer or outdoors) TO HUSTLE WITH FULL FOCUS.



5. TEACH SKILL FOR SAVING OF LIFE AND HIGH GUARANTEE OF SUCCESS

Teach Strong and Unbiased Principles and Skills that will increase the Children’s Chances of Survival and Success (Wealth,planning,organizing, etc)



6. SET STRONG PERFECT EXAMPLES FOR HONOUR,HONESTY,

Set a Strong Perfect Example/Character (of discipline,never say never, etc)



7. SERVE AND DEFEND

Serve and Defend the Community. When men are meeting to discuss security DONT sit at home reading newspaper.




8. INCREASE/EXPAND FAMILY’S WEALTH

Increase and Expand Family’s Wealth. Work hard. Work smart. Save. Invest. Be able to identify problems and Open a business to solve these.




9. INCREASE/EXPAND FAMILY’S INFLUENCE AND NETWORK

Increase and Expand Family’s Power and Influence and Network. Know people. People bigger than you. Better than you. Know them. Keep in touch. Have a strong network.




10. PHILANTHROPY AND COMMUNITY SERVICE

Partake in the Care of the Needy and Dependents in the Community- The real physically limited in one way or another. Those so limited that they aren’t able to take care of themselves. Don’t give fools, leeches and deceivers your money.

1. It is so common in many MDAs in Nigeria. In fact let me not mention the ones in all the NIMASA, NPA, NAPIMS, NNPC,NUPRC,NMDPRA,CBN, FIRS, etc. under various ministries.

And MOST COMMON IN THE PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS OF SECONDARY AND TERTIARY/HIGHER LEARNING. ALL OF THEM WHETHER IN MUSLIM NORTH OR CHRISTIAN SOUTH! In fact lecturer colleagues told me how Muslim lecturers from Northern extraction preyed on Southern Christian Female Students and avoided females from the North because they assumed these Southern Christian women who don’t cover up to “be highly promiscuous afterall”.

It is common in the MILITARY to a disgraceful level. So common I was determined NEVER TO MARRY A LADY IN ANY ARM OF THE MILITARY AND PARAMILITARY IN NIGERIA! And any military man that challenges this, examples will be provided right now. It is so bad that they even prey on wives of slain military personnel before they approve pensions and other death benefits.


And the harassment is usually worst metted to female:

1. Junior Staff/Personnel

2. Contract Staff (Cleaners, Concierge, etc)

3. Interns

4. Corp Members

5. Students (Secondary and Tertiary Public Schools)

It is common in many establishments where the men think they can get sexual favors as payment for one form of assistance or another. Or they feel because they can administratively oppress a lady they must coerce her to open her legs!

Many MDAs! All Arms of the Military!! All Public Secondary and Tertiary Schools!!! Yes I said from Secondary schools. The principal of the secondary school where I served swapped girls with the principal from another secondary school in a nearby village leading to a serious issue between him and my set of corps members, especially the female Corps members who battled him seriously!

In fact, see, let me tell you Nigerians that should/if ALL THE LADIES IN MDAs IN NIGERIA COME OUT FOR A “ME TOO” MOMENT, ALL EXECUTIVES WILL BE FIRED! ALL!! And many male colleagues, staff members, will deservingly BE IN JAIL!

I know women blackmail and lie and use this to destroy men, but the men themselves are not innocent. They are very far from being innocent.

Politics / Re: Enugu State Government Seals EEDC Due to Disconnection Notice by 10thTenthMan: 5:31pm On Jun 11
The State is leading by what they know. The administrators of the state are not Educated or Enlightened enough. They could be manageably literate (can manageably read and write) but they are not well educated not to talk of being Enlightened.

How do we expect their reaction to be sensible? Who can give what he doesnt have and doesnt belong to him? Knowledge, wisdom and understanding does not belong to them. Many administrators do not have the baseline common sense, decorum, education, enlightenment and natural will to be sensible and impartial and unfair in their dealings.

They cannot give what they don’t have. They only give what they have and use techniques they know. When they search their brain, only this reaction is there. Compounded by the fact that power intoxicates and can make you only think the wrong thing, push for the wrong thing, and believe the wrong thing to be correct and to be your full rights to demand the wrong thing.

Unfortunately, they know and can only give these as it forms what is fundamentally within their mental faculties and capacities:

-Abuse of Power
-Defaulting in paying bills and salaries
-Abuse of office
-Administrative Bullying
-Subversion
-Criminality
-Oppression
-Sexual exploitation and harassment
-Stealing
-etc.


Which ever Director that approved this SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIATELY. How such a foolish and disgracefully shameless decision was taken.

Shame on the Enugu State Government ! Shame on the on the Physical Planning and Urban Development Team and Directors!!
Shame on you all!!!

Celebrities / Re: 'I Hid My Illness For 17 Years Before Making It Public’ – Celine Dion by 10thTenthMan: 5:20pm On Jun 11
Life.

It has its ups and downs and this is an irrefutable fact of living, advancing, progressing and ageing into a full fledged life. That is the fundamental and basic purpose of life. To develop into a full fledged life. To live and experience life and all its pleasant pleasures, experiences and possibilities. But with these come consequences of being alive. They start from the day you are conceived, as a matter of fact.

With the realities of daily pursuits, survival, sustenance and natural ageing come these experiences some pleasant and freeing and some painful and limiting all as consequences of being a full fledged life.

Life……It daily happens to us all. We can prevent a lot of things, but there are things beyond our control too. When they come knocking, we respond with a smile. For worrying never did anyone any good and never changed pain to pleasure. Worrying only made matters worse.

She has been a Celebrity that has been free from a lot of scandals and did not let fame get into her head. At least to the best of my knowledge, she was always trying to ensure properness, while avoiding lewdness, sexual looseness and disgraceful scandals.

It is life. I like that she is being stoic and being strong. She should continue to be strong.
