Romance › Re: Men Are Rarely Warned About This Until The Damage Is Done. by Abee79(m): 9:21am On Aug 17
The story makes a good point about mystery being attractive, but it gets women completely wrong. Yes, people get bored when things are too predictable, and having your own life and goals makes you more interesting. But the idea that women are wired to cheat just because you're too nice or too giving is not true and pretty unfair. Healthy relationships aren't about playing games or keeping secrets to keep someone anxious and guessing. They work when two people grow together, respect each other, and choose each other every day. If a woman cheats, it's not because you were too perfect or gave her too much, it's because she made a bad choice or the relationship had real problems. Don't confuse keeping your partner curious with keeping them insecure. Be a good partner, but don't lose yourself in the process, and if someone doesn't appreciate you, that's on them, not on your kindness. Peace! smiley

Education › Re: Nigeria Is Still Teaching Children For A World That No Longer Exists by Abee79(m): 7:42am On Aug 13
You see the regulators / agencies in the education sector? Those expired civil servants in Federal Ministry of Education, NUC, UBEC / SUBEB, NBTE, NCCE, JAMB, NECO, WAEC, NABTEB, TETFund, TRCN, NERDC, NTI, NCNE, etc, are the problem.

Then to add insult upon injury, we keep "voting", supporting and recycling politicians who don't give a hoot about education, or the future of Nigeria cry

Travel › Re: Help Me Verify The Authenticity And Hidden Problems In This Message by Abee79(m): 3:55pm On Aug 12
This message is highly suspicious and displays multiple hallmarks of a scam. You should not make any payments or provide personal information.

Why This Is Likely a Scam
Impersonation Risk:
The domain name ukglobaltalent.org is designed to look like an official UK government website (which must end in .gov.uk). The UK government does not use .org websites for visa applications.

Unauthorized "Assessment":
Official UK visa processes do not involve "congratulatory" emails from private companies claiming you are "eligible to move forward." Eligibility is determined solely by the Home Office or the designated endorsing body (such as Tech Nation) based on your actual application evidence.

Exorbitant "Service" Fees:
They are asking for a £3,000 "investment." Official Home Office fees for the Global Talent Visa total only £766 (split as £561 for endorsement and £205 for the visa application). A £3,000 fee is a private consultancy charge, not a government cost, and offers no guarantee of a visa.

False Guarantees:
The email mentions a "100% refund guarantee." Scammers often use this tactic to build false trust. If your application is rejected due to fraud or poor evidence provided by an unverified third party, you may face a permanent ban from the UK.

50 POLITICAL LESSONS FOR YOUNG NIGERIANS FROM THE OBASANJO-OSOBA EXCHANGE
On Leadership Philosophy

1. Politics is for welfare and well-being - Never lose sight that public service exists to improve people's lives, not personal enrichment.
2. Separate policy from personality - Disagreement on ideas should never translate to personal hatred or enmity.
3. Stoop to conquer - Sometimes leadership requires humility, reaching out to opponents, and building bridges across divides.
4. Turn adversaries to neutrals, neutrals to friends - Active relationship-building across political lines is strategic, not weakness.
5. Respect must be given where it is due - Cultural respect for elders and traditions should not be sacrificed for political expediency.
6. Never stop communicating - Continuous dialogue prevents misunderstandings and builds lasting political capital.
7. Life is short - make friends not enemies - Political battles are temporary; relationships can last a lifetime.
8. No bitterness or acrimony in politics - Holding grudges weakens leadership and closes future opportunities.
9. Leadership is service, not entitlement - Positions of power come with responsibility, not privilege.
10. Maintain integrity and godliness - Ethical conduct should remain non-negotiable regardless of political circumstances.

On Strategic Thinking

11. Widen your circle of influence - Isolating yourself within ethnic or regional groups limits political viability.
12. National appeal beats tribal politics - Ethnic parties exist in a cul-de-sac; true political relevance requires national outlook.
13. Build alliances beyond your comfort zone - Consult widely across regions and political affiliations.
14. Understand what's "above your head" - Acknowledge that some political complexities require elder counsel and deeper understanding.
15. Keep your options open - Multiple invitations and approaches signal political value; don't burn bridges prematurely.
16. Policy implementation matters more than rhetoric - A steady programme of governance trumps political maneuvering.
17. Learn from defeats - Victory and loss both contain lessons; analyze both carefully.
18. Strength, not weakness, drives inclusion - Bringing opponents into government demonstrates confidence, not desperation.
19. The "brisk movement" wins elections - Campaign execution requires strategic timing and relentless effort.
20. Don't ignore political intelligence - Information about opponents' moves is vital for strategic response.

On Governance

21. Appoint defeated opponents - Including political rivals in government promotes stability and national unity.
22. Begin reconciliation immediately after victory - Post-election healing should start day one of governance.
23. Visit states regardless of party affiliation - Presidential attention should transcend political boundaries.
24. Develop Abuja as a national project - Physical development of the capital symbolizes national unity.
25. Build executive-legislative relations carefully - Impeachment threats require strategic handling, not panic.
26. National Assembly independence matters - The legislature must not be subordinate to executive whims.
27. Governors across party lines are partners - State governments, regardless of party, deserve presidential engagement.
28. Administrative appointments should reflect national character - Inclusion across regions strengthens legitimacy.
29. Handle political threats with dignity - Showing contempt for baseless attacks demonstrates strength.
30. Programmes over personalities - Governance should be driven by clear programmes, not personal agendas.

On Political Ethics

31. Reject tribalizing national positions - "Yoruba President" versus "Nigerian President" - the distinction matters enormously.
32. Condemn anti-democratic plots openly - Schemes to manipulate electoral outcomes must be exposed and resisted.
33. Information verification is essential - Never accept political propositions without checking with all parties involved.
34. Political hypocrisy has consequences - Eventually, deceitful positions become exposed.
35. Lies and deception backfire - Attempts to malign political opponents ultimately damage the accuser.
36. Pettiness diminishes leadership - Refusing to congratulate political rivals reflects poorly on the refuser.
37. Deathbed regrets are instructive - Learn from elders' confessions of political mistakes.
38. Mentorship requires consistent values - What leaders teach should align with what they practice.
39. Arrogance alienates the electorate - Public apologies for perceived arrogance rarely repair damage.
40. Campaign on substance, not assumptions - Take nothing for granted; every vote must be earned.

On Personal Development

41. Humility has no end - There is always room to be more humble, regardless of station.
42. Thanksgiving is perpetual - Gratitude to God and others should never cease.
43. Relationships outlast politics - The bonds you build today may serve you long after public service ends.
44. Family matters are legitimate - Personal obligations may require prioritizing family over political ambition.
45. Understand generational transitions - The values of older leaders may not be embraced by their proteges; understand this dynamic.
46. Use "sounding boards" wisely - Quick consultations with trusted elders provide essential political feel.
47. Personal interactions matter more than party cards - Some relationships transcend party affiliation.
48. Accommodation and tolerance are virtues - Build capacity to work with those who disagree with you.
49. Learn from both sides of any conflict - Every political dispute offers lessons for all participants.
50. Legacy is built over time - Projects like libraries and landmarks outlast political careers; invest in lasting contributions to your community.

---

These lessons emphasize the importance of national unity, ethical conduct, strategic relationship-building, and the understanding that politics is ultimately about service to the people rather than personal or sectional advantage.

Nairaland General › Re: Why Do Some Nigerians Gatekeep? Share Your Experience by Abee79(m): 11:10am On Jul 18
1. To maintain exclusivity and social status.
2. Fear of dilution or loss of authenticity.
3. To protect community safety or insider knowledge.
4. Resentment toward newcomers who haven't "earned" their place.
5. Desire to preserve subcultural identity against mainstream co-option.
6. To prevent entitlement mentality.
7. Many people just want to maintain a low profile

The Governor should use the same energy to address the issues of insecurity and poverty in his State. Armed bandits and unknown gunmen are terrorising his people, but it is defamation that is paining him more . . .
Romance › Re: I Just Realized How Selfish Some Women Can Be by Abee79(m): 4:43pm On Jul 14
Unfortunately, that is how 99% of women are wired. Most women are inherently selfish! They think of only their interests first. Even if she is as broke as hell, she will look for a man who can take care of her. Even those who have their own money also expect their men to take care of them. If they spend their money on the family, they expect the man to refund directly or otherwise. I wish I had known this 30 years ago. If you mistakenly marry a firstborn from a broke family, you don enter one-chance! She go use you to settle her people one way or the other grin
