We were in a bus from mile 2 to Alaba. The driver stopped at Ojo barracks gate to pick passengers not knowing that one soldier was hiding in front . The soldier ordered him to get down from the bus and come towards were he was standing.
I don’t know what gave the driver the brain to pretend like he was physically challenged. He immediately started limping on one leg and walking like his legs were kind of crooked.
The soldier looked at him and said “if not because of your condition you for see pepper today, oya go”
He came to the bus and drove off. All the passengers were laughing and hailing him.

This one off me Kaiiiiiii

Ohh Stella, you can't win on this o.

This a warning to employers of labour: Treat your workers right. Your worker is not only needed for completing tasks, but he's also a reflection of your company. You can't be successful if your workers are unmotivated, redundant or poorly paid.

Pay your workers well and on time. They will fight to impress you!

I get you tbvh but the title isn't exactly it lol warning to employers. @the boldened you couldn't have said it better. Nigerian employers aren't ready for this conversation. I keep saying this, it really isn't rocket science. When you treat your workers badly, there would be little or no progress in that establishment. Sometimes it's not even about the pay(we all know it's not been easy) but how you relate with your employees. Not saying you should be all lovey dovey but let's all(employees inclusive) be fair and considerate and not make life more difficult than it is already.

Who are y'all kidding huh?! Would the family have come out to say that their son Adewale Michael Kashamu had a hand in this?? Nah, ofcourse not.

Heartrending. May God grant his loved ones the fortitude to bear this loss and the strength to forge ahead. All culprits should be brought to book.

She went back to a guy who beats her smh I will never understand this. I can't say if Ayo has been friendzoned or still has a chance, I'll let her be if I were Ayo.

Awwwwwwwn, how lovely!

Funny comments, it's good that we can actually look back and just laugh. I've had an encounter with them once.

If it hadn't been an old friend of mine, I probably wouldn't have had that experience. He persuaded me to come and see his "big boss", this was after telling him that I had been applying for customer service rep, office/operations/admin assistant & call center agent jobs with no positive outcome yet. I asked him if there was any opening in his office, he smiled and told me that I just needed to meet with his "big boss". I was already in high spirits, thinking of how I'll meet with my Godsent helper, dreaming of how I'll be given offer letter and resumption date. When he gave me one of their brochures to peruse, what came to mind was GNLD, I asked him, o ni What's GNLD? No oo they're not into that. Ok oo I skimmed through anyway, the Super gro product really caught my attention which got me thinking business. I knew people who were into agriculture(cultivation of crops, poultry, etc) so I was very much interested in the Super gro booster.

Ladies and gentlemen, naso yours truly mura lo si ibi ti won so fun mi, I was looking at the venue pe "is this the place abi I'm at the wrong address". Mo de pe ore mi lori aago, "I think I'm lost, come and find me o". He jus said I should look for one brown building with black gate, ki n gun oke pe mo ma ri won laipe. I got to the entrance, they started asking me "what's your name, who invited you, write the person's phone number here" I became confused but then I filled everything in the attendance list. The hall was sooo big, people were already sitted ko daa I couldn't even find a place to sit.

We welcomed the "bosses" with resounding applause and standing ovation. Couldn't help but notice how rude some of them were(feeling so full of themselves like they were high up there demigods and literally just doing us a favour). I watched as one of them verbally abused people to the amusement of the others, hurling insults at an old man just cos he asked what time the seminar would be over, I felt cold shivers run down my spine.

A certain speaker said people called him a madman cos he was always trekking to and fro soliciting patronage for his wares under hot sun, everyone knew him as a foolish wanderer and even his shoes were about to give way before he had his uncommon breakthrough lol it was at that point it dawned on me that it was all GNLD. Same speaker said infact he loves being called a madman cos he was/is Making A Difference, came up with some other ridiculous abbreviations and meanings to suit their narratives, spoke to us about Robert Kiyosaki & his books.

I endured til the end of the session so I could ask about the Super gro booster, atleast my tfare wouldn't have been in vain or so I thought. I was told to register after which I'd be given supplement kits(I tried to make them understand that I wasn't there for those supplements but for the Super gro booster but they weren't having any of that). They reminded me about one sponsor who at a time had to sell all he had despite his wife's disapproval but look at his family now doing very well for themselves. Kini mo ni ti mo le ta? Ko si, they asked me about my phone, mo ni okay, o ti ye mi. I jejely stood up and left the premises, they were calling me back. Emi ti ebi ti fe lu pa, o da bi ki n fo si ile mi. They can ginger pesin ehhh, I give it to them. "Even if you can't pay with cash now, you can use your atm card, no problem".

Shouldn't have made that statement. Atleast you can see him hawking some goods, he's not playing with his wares on the road that sunny afternoon, is he? You can't patronize him for the sake of charity, fine but the least he could've done is to face front and move ahead.

Birthday blessings Jerry's mum, wishing you many happy returns.

The OP is not a clown, he's the entire circus.

If it isn't Uyai cracking me up this very hot afternoon

Happy for you baby girl, where's the bridal shower at? Gonn' be litty lit!

SQL is definitely a win. You can get a job while learning JS on the side or PHP or whatever it is that interests you, however, If we are talking about the money places, JS will come up sooner or later in your career.

There's this material I used when learning JS, it's 30 days of Javascript by asabeneh (Just google it). Easy to read and you can finish it in 3 days if you are gingered .

Bless you, I'll definitely check it out one of these days. I truly appreciate this.

TundeChris:
It takes time. I think python might even be the easy way out if you want to have real depth.

I suggest SQL for someone who wants to break into the tech scene. But if you want to actually code stuff, it depends on what you want to do.

If your goal is Web Dev then, HTML, CSS, Javascript, React

Thank you. It was HTML, CSS, for me before I went into SQL, still backpedaling on JS. I hope I get my mojo back lol.

gracedson:
Frontend:

You can start with HTML+CSS, then you can select your preferred Backend language.

Just start from somewhere !!

This is good too. OP, lay your foundation with HTML & CSS, JS is also okay.

Asour:
It depends on your interests.

What area of Programming do you want to play in.

Data analytics / Engineering?
Full stack development? Application /web development?
Database development?

You Choose:

Having been familiar with Data & Analytics domain,
I'ld advice.

Excel > SQL> R> Java. In that Order.

I really don't know much about Full stack development but you should check Code with mosh on YouTube for more details.

ALWAYS know that programming is NOT an end but a means to an end. So Value above medium should be the watchword.

Cheers.

I like this, thank you. OP, here's the way to go.

TundeChris:
SQL

Backend development basically.

My thoughts too. I've still not been able to understand Python and most programmers I know are of the opinion that it's not quite difficult.

captainamiedi1:
No one is easy. passion, persistence and dedication is the key word. without these, you will give up after fighting a bug for one week. Programming is not easy you must be prepared. Nobody pay you alot for doing nothing. so you have to be ready to practice, learn and practice.

Wish you all the best

Spot on. Passion, persistence & dedication

Congratulations girrrl, God's got you.

Lol @the comments above. Honestly, if my SO were to wake me up so he could sleep facing my toes orrr I probably woke up to that position of his, I'll be legit worried. I may not be totally okay with it even after he may have told me his reasons(like the OP's heightened sensitivity) but it won't be all so strange like before so if I ever find him in that position, I know it's cos of x, y or/& z. Gbege go dey if you no fit tell me wetin mek e be laidat, mek I use worry wounjure maisef?!

Back to the OP, I'm sorry I laughed when I read that your gf was crying profusely over this sleeping position of yours. Didn't you explain your heightened sensitivity part to her? About her saying something about unhappy marriage and childlessness, I really do not know where she got that from esp the childlessness part.

The deed has been done. I'm not here to talk about how you & your gf started dating and all that. I presume you're actively looking for ways to resolve these issues.

Here's what I'd say.. You say you've gone with your family for iku-aka-na-uzo(introduction orrr introdonkwa). I know you've been calling and sending text messages across to your gf & her mum but received stern warnings and insults instead. Why not try talking to some elders(from your family/kindred) that they may accompany to your gf's house? Let's start from there and see how it goes.

I just read that your gf's father is late, things could get really crazy there esp her siblings coming at y'all aggressively so please be prepared for that but then also know when to leave. If that doesn't broker peace between you two, just leave them be but don't stop sending money/gifts for your daughter, someone suggested through the human rights welfare team, please do. Dunno but I feel that going to their house with some relatives of yours with very well demystify things, then you'll know the next step to take. About paying your daughter a visit once in a while, I think everything will fall in place in due time, the welfare team will work it out somehow.

Congratulations to you both, cheers to many more years of marital bliss.

Give what you can afford to lose, learnt that the hard way. So you don't get yourself all worked up, if he pays back, fine and if he doesn't(or can't), that's alright.

It's not even about the properties you need to buy which you can't comfortably do until it's next month's payday, it's the fact that you don't even have the money to give your friend and raising it will further put you in debt and till when? February 2022. You know how many months are in January(yes I'm not talking days) and then February, March. January wey dey be like 6months, con add February and March, e go be like sey everything dey standstill. Na from April, pesin dey breathe small.

I know you really wish you could help him settle his bills and believe me that's really thoughtful of you, God sees your heart and will bless you accordingly. This is absolutely beyond you, quit beating yourself up about it. If you can forgo the money even with the uncertainties that abound, knowing fully well how things are with him, then you can go ahead. I've weighed it on my part and I know it's way beyond me, can't afford to be in debt at this point in time. Everybody eye dey chook, country hard no be small.

See UG & Cross who be dis Gideon guy & Papi D'wh.0re lmfaooo @ I'm not a forklift Don't lock my head in with your legs

May her soul rest in perfect peace and may God comfort and strengthen her loved ones.

Always the first cos you've only heard and maybe watched some videos but never been there before. Mine was really crazy, having dreams where family members shook my lifeless body, crying in the hospital ward. For someone who has been hypertensive from a very young age, the nurses kept telling me not to play with my routine drugs cos Eclampsia or Preeclampsia. Those two words scared the sh*t out of me ngl and there was acute Malaria (++), I hate injections so much but I had to take 'em cos it was gonna have a negative effect on my lil bun in the oven.

When I went into labour, my blood pressure shot up to 200+, I was given a glass of water to quickly swallow some pills just to beat it down a bit but no way, the doctor and the nurses were so scared for me cos at a point I just laid still, they tapped me and asked if I was still there(under my breath, I called on my Jesus to take the wheel). In the end, God did it and I pushed out my bouncing baby(who was already tired btw).

Praying for all the pregnant women all over the world that they will deliver safely in healthy condition without any complications. They & their families will have cause to sing praises unto the Lord & glorify His holy name now and forever, Amen.

RoyalBlu:
'First pregnancy' blues .

I can very well relate o.

We thank God for His exceeding grace upon us women.

Child birthing is a wonderful experience!!!

You can say that again oo, my sister.

It's not easy to forgive, neither is it to forget. I for one, has so much anxiety to deal with so I try not to add more baggage to it. When I think deeply about it and maybe cry me a river, I let it go so I can forge ahead. Life goes on.

Rest easy, Sound Sultan.
