You guys won't end this 100k matter anytime soon

You guys need to see that video on a big screen. Tinubu is seriously sick. He can't stand without being supported on both sides.

CountVersailles:
A lady who makes something of herself will not lack in advances from men. My advice to my friends has always been to make something of themselves and the man will come. Go on and achieve your dreams. And even if the man doesn't come, at least you can rest in the comforting thought that you have achieved your dreams or close to achieving them. Unfortunately, the problem with many women is that they put the man before their dreams. They want to marry and then start out with their goals in life. Sorry, no high value man wants to marry a woman who isn't ambitious or who wants to cling to the man for survival.

Who told you?

Minjim:
I earn 85k and I live in a 350k apartment.

My wife is not working and doesn't know how to manage like yours. I can't even give her money to buy stuff. The last time I did, what she thought for 10k, if I enter market, I can but it for 8k .This always causes quarrel between us.
If she craves to eat something, she must eat it. According to her - she's pregnant.

How do I survive? Thank God my father lives with me. He's the head of his family and many family members send him money. Since I'm in charge of his account, I'm also in charge of the money they send to him.
Now that she is 7 months pregnant, my family member have started bringing baby things. In fact, the ways things are looking I may not have to buy any baby clothes at all.
I must say, my family members keep me going. I don't know how I can ever survive on that 85k with a wife that doesn't. Want to understand the current situation

How long will you continue to pay annual rent with your 4-month salary as a married man with responsibilities?

Thank God you have a support system but shouldn't you be making more concrete and realistic plans for yourself?

Be smart and stop blaming your wife. You and your partner need to share a common vision. That's something you need to work on. She's not a tree. Talk to her, she would listen.

May God increase you. By the way, your rent (N150,000) is not bad at all.

Where do you reside?

I miss banga soup Well-done ma.

Any man that is too busy to do chores in his house should be able to pay for such services. If you're too busy such that you're unable to contribute anything (material or immaterial) in your home, then you and your busyness are useless to your home and mankind.

Phraences:
And also giving ridiculous age requirements. Make all the young people japa.

Honestly

pocohantas:
One Nigerian bank has gone from minimum of 26yrs to 28yrs. It is a win win situation.

Exactly !!

All their shakara will now end after demanding 1st-class honors and 2-1 for a monotonous and repetitious teller job.

The good thing is that skillful 2-2 certificate holders who are above the age of 30 will explore the banking sector in the coming years.

I was having the meaningful argument with Acidosis this morning, the man was faulting tinubu and said its not tinubu that built lagos that lagos has bn built before the emergence of tinubu.

I said he is right, but tinubu ensures the continuity of lagos greatness and he cant deny that.

I now ask him to coment about peter obi, show us the track record, and he should also discuss about his allegation from pandora, and how he siphoning Anambra funds, how he lied that he left so so amount for the incoming governor but the incoming governor denied such amount, the guy went mute immediately.

Since morning till now he never know wat to reply, maybe he's thinking about the next lies to produce.


These people are full of hate and venom. And the funny tins is they now dominate nairaland, they wont even allow u to air ur opinion without maiming and nailing u with reckless abandon. A just taya for them.


But i know that after 2023, they wil be put to their place as usual.

Baba, you have been giving me unnecessary mention since yesterday. Why do you assume that anyone who criticizes Tinubu for what he is must be a Peter Obi campaigner?

Why do you want me to defend or answer your question about Peter Obi so bad just because I criticized your corrupt pay master?

Why do you and your likes assume that whoever criticizes Tinubu must be related to Igbos or IPOB?

I am a Christian, a Yoruba man, I reside in Lagos, got married in Lagos from a Lagos family, and my in-laws are Muslims. So you are not (and may never be) in a better position to criticize Tinubu, his corrupt ways, or his Muslim-Muslim ticket.

Quit the false assumption and stop wasting your time. If you know a lot about Peter Obi, please go ahead and criticize him.

baretalk:
Mumu, they are millions of poor auditors in Nigeria. Who is your father?
He is a nonentity, just like you.

If your father had given you any sense of morals, you wouldn't come online to talk about poverty or "nonentity", when people are discussing character, contentment, and ethics.

Those three words are irrelevant to you because, of course, you are a product of theft.

baretalk:
You just made a very stupid and senseless statement. Shows how empty most you bigots are.

You are young but very stupid and lazy, at your age those men you are laughing at are running things. Tinubu was a NADECO member in his 30's already paid running things. How you are when you are young will determine how you will be when you get more older. Lots of young stupid people, that can't even help themselves, with stupid parents that achieved nothing, will be laughing at Tinubu. Laugh at your parents for their poverty and for breeding idiots.

When Tinubu ran to Chicago to trade drug, my dad was already a legit auditor in Lagos. He managed transactions in an auditing firm and refused bribes from all fronts. Today, he's back in his home state, enjoying his retirement with his lovely wife in peace.

We (his children and relatives) are not running from pillar to post manipulating a leaking diaper with Adobe Photoshop. We are not defending whatever he did in his 30's because he's 100% corruption-free. We are not renting condemned Bishops to push any agenda.

You may not know my family name but hey, a criminally-landen name that is known for nothing but perjury, transnational crime, godfatherism, and drug is not one to envy.

While you are here outsourcing your hopeless future to a condemned criminal, I'm in Lagos minding the business that pays my bills.

We will no longer allow hopeless people like you to decide the future of this country. This is not a suggestion but a fact you have to accept, whether you like it or not.

tonicyril:
Oga i have never voted in my life sir.

Inshort, i hatéd buhari right from the beginning, i have never loved him and in the very first month he was sworn in i knew Nigeria had a disaster already.

Concerning tinubu, well, i use to say it, that baba is not a saint, his education get coma, how he amased his wealth sef get coma, BUT WEN IT COMES TO GOVERNANCE, EVEN U SEF KNOW THAT NOBODY NEARS HIM. UNLESS U WANT TO BE TRIBALISTIC.

Obi, Obi might be a great man but i knew nothing about him wen he was the governor of anambra.

But wen i start to hear about him was wen he was running alongside atiku, it was den i started hearing about his governance back then in anambra. Even the anambrans were complaining bitterly and even regretting voting him ahead of soludo.

I have a thread of him here in 2012 wen the faithful igbo youth were gnashing their teeth just for his mishandling of things then. Nothing to write home about.

Comes this 2023, i am not voting any body, me wey no even get pvc before.

How i wish southeast can give us someone like Nnamdi kanu, a kanu (in disguise) is better than atiku, tinubu and obi put together.

When it comes to governance? How? Lagos has always had potential right from the '70s and '80s. Who's feeding you guys with lies?

When Tinubu ran to Chicago for drug business, some of our parents were already in Lagos, being the most developed city in Nigeria. The same Lagos was Nigeria's federal capital territory before the eventual relocation to Abuja. All these...played out while Tinubu was a nobody.

So what has Lagos state's development got to do with Tinubu? He's still relevant because he somehow had a way of ensuring that no other political party had a way in Lagos after his tenure.

As far as I know, Fashola and Ambode were better governors. Please go back to your history book and study their legacies.

Many people will mention Jakande when it comes to development than a recent Tinubu? What did he (Tinubu) do in Lagos, please? He created more LGAs (LCDAs). So?

What comes to your mind when you hear the name "Tinubu" (theft isn't it?) Now compare your answer to the name "Fashola".

Your answer to the above is my final response to you.

...but what is the purpose of this..? Fun?

tonicyril:
And what does age has to do with good governance??

I think u have sense na, av seen ur post many of tyms, post with sense.. but this?? Hmmm lemme rest.

Age doesn't have much effect on governance ogami, what we need are track record of an applicant and his concrete plans.

The track record of an old man does not have much effect. Did you not vote Buhari based on his military track record?

Are you not tired of making the same mistake over and over again?

baretalk:
Biden is older than Tinubu. Leadership and brilliance has nothing to do with age. Albert Einstein discovered law of relativity when he was past 60, he was still brilliant till death. It's brains and mind that works for the president, his ministers, aides, and all are there, a president is more like a Ceo, an instructor and director. You people sound so stupid. When other countries have election period, I don't see them exhibiting this crass stupidity and ignorance. The politicians will treat you how you bring yourself. Stop sounding so stupid and ignorant. Politics is no joke. You people should deal with real issues.

The good thing about America is that even a dead body can rule and America won't fall.

Stop comparing America with a corruption ridden country.

seunmsg:
That’s why kids should be abused and manipulated in this manner for the desperation of one man to become president by force? Must you guys defend nonsense?

Where were you when Tinubu manipulated clergymen and the entire Christian Association of Nigeria?

baretalk:
Stop teaching your kids to discriminate people based on tribal leanings, you are fucking the kids mentality up. What a stupid mom, very ignorant. Of all the things to do, you choose to do this.

The tribal leanings only exist in your head. The kids are not f00ls. They know a grandpa when they see one.

seunmsg:
Feel for their ignorance and manipulation by their parents. Using innocent kids for political gain is quite silly. This is a new low for Peter Obi and his supporters. I’ve never seen this kind of desperation before in a Democratic contest.

..but you have seen the desperation of men in their 80's and 90's?

We need a new type of desperation.

E reach to beg

phelonrays:
Nigerians in general -unfortunately - are hypocrite

A good and thorough check at the pics (using google check) you'll know that the account and the operator are fake.

An example is when a supposed commenter - his second account disguising as another lander - asked her to proof her authenticity by uploading a photo with 5 left fingers covering her face in which she did ( all this happened yesterday, 20 ), but that photo is on an instagram page with an entirely different date.

I then see why nigerians are easily scammed - we are too gullible.

Very very gullible.

The only cure for gambling is more gambling, bro. You have to keep gambling until you're completely finished. You will change wen bodi tell you!

Rozross:
Still waiting on you all, especially those that bashed blessedmercy tirelessly. Please I seriously need ways to go about the 100k issue, so as to know how to adjust

You have to understand that living condition, living arrangement, and standard of living differ from family to family. So nobody will give you a breakdown when they don't know your situation.

Some families have a combine earning of N200,000 and they are fine because they don't pay rent. Another family with a combine earning of N700,000 may be struggling because 70% of their earning goes to rent and professional courses.

UyaiIncomparabl:
Well, it's not about the salary he's earning now. I mean, people earn higher salaries. And with the inflation going bonkers by the day, and with one's standard of living, that money is likely to be next to nothing in a few years to come. Not everybody believes in the mantra of "No place like Nigeria".

Most likely, after his studies, he will fare better.

You're right. I don't have issues with his plans to relocate actually, especially given his choice of country. My opinion might be different if he had mentioned some other countries.

More importantly, he has to align his priorities with the reality. He is an electrical engineer so it might be necessary to study the lives/living condition of Nigerian born electrical engineers in his destination.

UyaiIncomparabl:
And what's a poor salary in your regard?

A poor salary is relative, my dear but someone who earns 20-30x more than the minimum wage in a typical developing country cannot be described as poor.

UyaiIncomparabl:
Canada is a better destination than the UK (in my opinion) and more expensive, so he needs more money.

Oh okay!

UyaiIncomparabl:
Doesn't make staying back here any better. If his course for MSC is on the UK's occupation shortlist, he won't struggle after his studies.

Just as how converting his salary from Naira to pounds does not make it bad or poor.

The OP may be considering leaving the country for a variety of reasons, but a poor salary shouldn't be one of them.

UyaiIncomparabl:
Point of what?

The point of working/saving for 2 years before relocating.

chauder:
Your salary is less than £1,000. Think am well

True and his monthly rent in Naija is less than £120

UyaiIncomparabl:
Take the job, save for a year or two and move to Canada or Australia.

What's the point?
