Hello house. Concerning registering a business name with CAC, Pls can anyone help me with all the kinds of trades/services that can or cannot be registered as only a business name.

Secondly, does a having a Bsc in that field compensate for not having a professional certificate of membership of that profession? I rily need this info need it to start something with what I have and get better details. The people I met at CAC were not having the time to explain this.
Your answers would be very much useful. Thanks

AyoJames: Babanginda commissioned 3rd mainland bridge, Babanginda annulled MKO election, MKO university students are protesting on 3rd mainland bridge.

It looks and smells Oba Erediauwa University already

Guy, read the news! It's going to be renamed BOB IZUA UNIVERSITY

It's not just about the swag anymore. It's about disregard for the wishes of the people. Those who are saying that they should accept the new name have the rights to air their views and are clearly expressing their acceptance of an insensitive and autocratic govt. BTW, UNIBEN is next to be changed to BOB IZUA UNIVERSITY.

Idowuogbo: Y is she ranting? Did u make it clear to her u were teasing? Regardless u playing or not, her comments were harsh. One question, is ur babe proud? It is very dangerous to b d spouse of a proud individual because all the family is labouring for may be destroyed through the pride of the fellow.Dat said, I am only drawing emphasis on pride cus she seems d type.U make a joke and she comes coughing dat hard? Dude evaluate b4 u put a ring on it o!

My sister, you just hit the nail on the head. God bless you jor!!!

slimyem: i hate stingy guys and would rather be alone than be in a relationship with one...
Your gf's emphasis is on 'on several occassions'.
Do you think you are stingy?
Are you trying to play the 'don't fall mugun' game?
If she really needs something she can't afford and you can,why not?
Its not like its everyday she asks you to help out with something..is it?
Every woman want a man who can be truly sympathetic to her needs not one who makes mockery of them..
The rest is in your hands...

Do you think you are stingy?

My answer is no. I am a giver and will always be. Infact, there many obligations that I help family and other friends meet. Now that doesnt mean that I do not realise the need to save for the rainy day. The issue is usually when she has high expectations and I do not meet that. At such instance, would you call it stingy? I don't think so.

Are you trying to play the 'don't fall mugun' game?
No. We have gone pass that stage such that anything I spend on her, I believe is also going to affect me too.


Every woman want a man who can be truly sympathetic to her [b]needs not one who makes mockery of them..[/b]

Fine. No man in his right sense would make fun of his woman's needs. I think the women should be more tactical in their approaches when requesting from their men. It is a boost to his ego when he gives to his woman. Infact, before she gave up, she had requested for it many times on phone but I deliberately said no to test her persistence and derive some fun in the process. It did not mean that I was not going to give her. I think some good women should learn from the bad girls, they know how to psyche men up just to get what they want.

We have been in the relationship for a while now and are both focused on it. Recently, she expected me to pay for an ASO EBI and I told her that I could not though jokingly but she didnt take it as such and poured out her mind that I do not like "taking charge" when it comes to money matters which she had noticed on several occassions and blah blah blah. Because of this, she said she is gradually making up her mind to live as an independent woman when we eventually get married.
In the middle of her rantings, she said that she had even seen her father treat her mum like that on several occassions.

I tried many things to make her see otherwise and even went as far as reminding her of a particular gadget that I had promised to her cos she needed it badly and could not afford it. Pls house, what should I do?

Thoughtful responses pls.

Claracuzio: You are quite a mugu, no wonder u graduated with 3.49. Dem tell u say pple with 2.1 sef get job?
U better go and think of what to do with ur self.

See what I mean
Mtscheww... Frustrations in the land. SMH

lestat: sorry but u are a monkey!!!! who told u that CGPA gets jobs in nigeria anymore? be grateful and start searching because u go siddon for house tire if u are hoping only on your CGPA

Was that necessary of you? Do you have to destroy the dignity of another person in the process of showing how "mistaken" they are? Are you so hungry for attention that you did not see how the others passed across their comments? Na wetin just dey vex me for NL be that!

Anyway, @ poster, that grade should not determine your future! It is what you do with it that counts ultimately. I have a feeling that you are an engineering student. And these days, given our educational system, ppl no longer judge you based on that. All you should be praying and working towards now is an opportunity for you to be showcased. Your own dreams/plans for the future is what matters most & not what anybody will console you with. If you want to go the path of paid employment (which is getting slimmer by the day no matter what you have read or been labelled from school), I would suggest that you do some professional courses & your Masters. Then keep applying and hoping that you can first apply for a job where you do not have to be screened out due to the grade.

But if that is not the case, go and thank your sponsors for giving you a HOPE and then go pursue your dreams! I say it again, it is your dreams/plans that matters most.

@Poster, thanks for this tip. I think wd start with your babe... She sure wd enjoy my fresh meat.

ta4: Hi guys, my husband lost his job in one of the bank few weeks ago. well the good thing he had saved quite alot while working(over N6M) and i work in a small firm and earn at least enough to keep the family going(have 4 kids). He has just refused to think of doing something. he sits a home relaxed.i have suggested he starts a small business at least to keep busy but he seem not be bothered.
please advise on how to handle the situation and possible business he can go into that wont be too capital intensive.thanks

Well, there is still much that you are not saying like if you guys live in your own house or if it is rented? What are the ages of the children and are they already in higher institutions? These and more shd be able to determine how much influence you need to get him out of that house NOW and back on the streets working his bum out for the family. Fine, I agree that he should be resting after a hectic time after a bank's work but the truth of the matter is that the only time he can afford to fold his arms and not get going should be when he is retired and has put systems in place for that. As far he hasn't, then he shd get his bum, I mean his relaxed bum out and take responsibility for the family.

I have witnessed a situation like this on my street where a good man after being disengaged just started chasing small small girls about, took to drinking and all sorts of behaviours because he had extra money in his account (disengagement fees) and wanted to now show his wife who had been nagging that he had become a pain in the house.

My point is this, an idle mind will always be the devil's workshop. And BTW, he should always carry you along on whatever he wants to spend that money on.

Times are hard, you both should be using this period to sharpen your financial intelligence.

Between starting a business or applying for another job, I would go for the former.

Surprisingly, women too wear boxers.



What a man can do, a woman can do it berra.

I once asked a woman why women are such dangerous drivers and she smiled and said: It is our hormones that are responsible for it.

Wily+Wily:
Majority of Yorubas and Hausa/Fulani North want him to fail, they are trying all their best to frustrate him.

It is statements like such that give common sense a bad name. So what do you say of South easterners and South-southerners that criticize him?
Oh I forgot, common sense is not so common after all especially when we have become blinded to facts by tribalism.

You may have stayed with him due to LOVE or just plain PITY and it went the other way round, such is life. Dear poster, I encourage you becos you are one out of the few millions of Nigerian girls who are true to themselves and gave love a chance. I can feel your pains but suicide or anything harmful now would only bring more regrets and pains.
Use this as a period to take up a vocation, understand yourself better and do not generalise all men. I do not want to take sides but both men and women are guilty of this. It can be very sad to give your very best to someone else yet be treated this way in return. Leave vengeance to God.

It may look very bleak but I salute your courage for coming out to share this, You will overcome!

Stay strong, cry if you want to but harbour no negetive emotions against him or any man.

All is well with you.

Yield: If it's a loved one, I don't see why you can't write out the words.
If it's someone you don't know much, whatever floats your boat.

@ Yield. Thank you. But if it is someone you don't know much, why bother in the first place? Should everyone not feel special and loved in full on their day?

TroyJay: So you are free to customize usernames, but you object when people choose to customize congratulations? Interesting!

Read the topic well, this is not about me. I never said I don't use em once in a while but was surprised at the meaning someone else read to it. Is this difficult to understand? Haba!!!

@ swtdarling, whatever!

Dude, just face the topic besides I've been guilty of this fad many times but since someone had objected to it especially in the context that people do use it (prayers/wishes) & bearing it in mind that we are very sensitive of (prayers/wishes) in this part of the world then it is better to give it a second thought.

And for your information, 4wardever is just a username. Next time, try google what a username means.

Oh, let me save you the stress: A username is a name that uniquely identifies someone on a computer system. For example, a computer may be setup with multiple accounts, with different usernames for each account. Many websites allow users to choose a username so that they can customize their settings or set up an online account. For example, your bank may allow you to choose a username for accessing your banking information. You may need to choose a username in order to post messages to a certain message board on the Web etc. Source: iwebtool.

Yes, to you it isn't but cos it's not everyone that uses/understands it, wouldn't it be much simpler spelling it all out for clarity's sakes?

What's your take on using abbreviations like "HBD", "LLNP", "HML" etc when congratulating people? Is it wrong to use the words HBD & LLNP when wishing your loved one a happy birthday, Happy Married Life amongst others?

A friend of mine insists that she doesn't like to receive those abbreviated messages saying: "U cant wish someone a HBD or HML meanwhile you have already shortened it by abbreviating it".

Is it due to impatience or what that makes people write that way?

I hope he would still be able to say that when it is 2 weeks to his exams. Mtschew!

Why do people get upset for not being invited to introduction ceremonies (Momi mo e) even when it is not an all comers affair? I heard of the reactions of neighbours of a friend's father who were not invited and it was unpleasant. Mind you, this is not the traditional/engagement neither was it the main event.

I really wonder what could be on these people's minds sef. Mtschew

Imagine if Gov. Fashola was a Christian and went ahead to destroy those mosques, hmmm? I wonder what would have become of Lagos state this night?

Your guess is as good as mine...

World War 3.

Thanks.

A beginner needs some helpful tips. Your comments are welcome.
Thanks.

If you gat all that but are still not thrilled or confident on getting it done:

1. Your mentor has not fully groomed you thus, you still have much to learn. Wait on him/her.

2. Your confidant is not pushing you well enough. Make it count.

3. I can help you. Let me know where.

I always go the extra mile to please my clients and they love me for this. Also, I tend to do well when it comes to developing other people's products and managing it but the challenge is that when it comes to mine, I don't even impress myself.

What could be the cause of this and how can I get it right?

My advice:

1. Do you have a mentor? Graduate or not, humble yourself & go serve as an apprentice under someone doing that which you love. You may even have to pay the mentor (either in cash or service) for the knowledge experience you will be getting that way, He/She would help fine-tune your plans, save your time and help avoid costly mistakes.

2. Do you have a confidant/partner? Get someone to always share your mind with who can encourage you (not your mentor).

3. Need more advice? Email me: frankway86@gmail.com

Stop it now cos not only can it damage your teeth, it can lead to gastrointestinal problems such as constipation, abdominal pain, vomiting, loss of appetite, and diarrhea.

BTW, since it was one of your childhood indulgence, you should have gotten over it by now or graduated to eating gravel or rocks. Seriously now, you need help!!!

A word is enough for the wise.

Pride or no pride. I think D'banj will be well off. He's got it going too. Check out his portfolio. The guy na correct bizman.
