Did I also add, my parent constantly shame me which is my only worry

Romance / Re: Why Were Nigerian Guys Scared Of Marrying Ladies That Own Cars In The Past? by Acode: 8:10am On Jul 20, 2020
marvelck:
Back in the day, single ladies that own cars were usually advised not to flaunt their cars or let guys know they own a car, in order not to chase men away from marrying them.

Unmarried ladies that own cars then were tagged all sort of names. But a lot has changed since then. Most guys even prefer going after ladies that own cars and houses these days. And e get why �

Education / Re: Private School Proprietors Throng NAPPS Over FG Planned Remuneration, Commend VP by Acode: 8:07am On Jul 20, 2020
SmartProf:
Just because of the FG bailout of private schools, many schools who were not registered under NAPPS have bombarded the association to get themselves registered at the 11th hour. What may happen next will be padding and falsification of data on the number of existing private schools. Once the FG suspects the process, they will just use that as an excuse to suspend or abandone giving out the promised bailout....Due to many private schools shortchanging their staff on salaries even prior to Covid 19, the FG should use this opportunity to set a regularized minimum wage standard for teachers in private schools before releasing any bailout to them. Else greedy proprietors may divert the bailout funds and pay peanuts or even nothing to their teachers.



Even if the money get disbursed.. 99% of the proprietors and school owners wuld either not pay the teachers or shortchange them... lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

Politics / Re: Oshiomhole’s Camp Switches Support From Ize-iyamu To Obazee by Acode: 12:01pm On Jun 06, 2020
JasonScoolari:
God surely knows how to embarrass some möronic fraudsters called "Pastors"

These men just use the title to decieve gullible followers to achieve their personal gains... I will give you some examples.

-Pst. Tunde Bakare: Wanted to have a feel of the Presidential Villa, tried and failed so many times and was later relegated to a mere consultant.

-Rev Chris Okotie: You all know how it always ends up for him, even his church members do vote for a different candidate.

Pst Yemi Osibande: Used the title of a pastor to sneak into the Villa, but ended up heading irrelevant committees meant for Omoniles. E.g "Chairman,Use The Toilet Committee of Nigeria" amongs others.

Now Pst Ize-Iyamu, who's now behaving like a cheap prostitute all over Edo State will end up heading the team of organizers in the next Igué festival after he's being used and dump.

Politics / Aftermath Of Ijegun pipeline Fire by a resident by Acode: 1:48am On Jul 09, 2019
The fire which we all estimated to have killed two people(an aboki whose kiosk got burnt and a bus driver who was caught in d inferno) but more deaths has been recorded no thanks to the Lagos state government's poor emergency management authorities
Please don't mind my literal deficiencies...am Just trying to ring out an update on d current life situations of victims and survivals from this fire... And also voice my opinion on a lingering community problem we facing



9 people has been confirmed dead as at 6pm last night leaving two breathing survivals hanging on to d tiniest hope of life with the aid of an oxygen

The Thursday early morning fire which began few minutes past four and claimed few lifes at the initial has almost wiped out A complete family of 7 (grandmother.. Father mother and 2children late) left is two daughter who we are still hoping will pull through...



The Lagos state emergency management authority came on air and all media platforms saying victims of this inferno will be giving proper treatments for free....but the Truth is... They got abandoned immediately they were admitted into gbagada general hospital... This particular family of seven who got burnt in this inferno were unfortunately part of the victims dumped at gbagada hospital by LASEMA ... This hospital demanded a deposit of 100thousand naira before any treatment can be perform on the victims... We were shocked at d cruelty of this particular agency... The whole irede community landlords in ijegun and every other concerned community member were ask to come to their aid cos the whole family were incapacitated.. We all paid the little we could so treatment could commence but after raising d money
We lost d grandmother and the mom.. Saturday we lost one of the twin.. And yesterday Morning we lost the pretty daughter zainab...


My problem is not with the hospital actually... But how can an institution that is saddled with d responsibilities of protecting life nd property fail in protecting the life and still fails in saving what is left of the unprotected life... As in Why should a fire victim.... rescued by LASEMA...... be asked to pay a first aid FEE... It's atrocious...


It's either someone is trying to make a quick cash from the non payment of the victims hospital treatment ... Or there was never a free first aid treatment in the first place..

I reside in ijegun... My apartment was few Meters away from been engulfed if not for some divine intervention nd maybe the swiftness of Lagos state fire service... I experienced the 2008 fire explosion which claimed more victims nd property due to the time it occurred ... But all victims to my knowledge didn't pay a dime till they got discharged.... And those who lost loved ones were assisted financially in their burial..



While doing some consulting with the aim of making this case against LASEMA public... I got some cold replies from the elders in the community... The general view was that.. Since the fire was triggered by vandals and not the government or any government agency the victims are on their own... Unlike 2008 which was caused by an ongoing road construction... This country is actually a shit hole..



There shouldn't be a condition written or unwritten that regulates d involvement of any government in saving lifes of dying victims....am actually typing this with a trembling heart...

God help Nigeria

Apologize to your brother, and stop making excuses.
Its not enough to feel bad and sorry for your actions. The most important thing is how you have made amendments, and corrected the wrongs.
If your dad brings up all his comparisons, report him to your mum, and let her know he's breeding enmity between her children.
apologise done already....

You must tell urself that you won't allow your emotions be ruined by these actions and never allow it breed negative relationship between you and others.

He could break your head if he decides to get back at you, he's your elder brother. The fact that you fought him alone can make him have funny thoughts and plans towards you.

You seem very naive and stubborn and probably deserve that treatment from your Dad. Even though it may not be the best, your brother has mastered how to take the positives and be a better person...and you're being envious.

Apologise sincerely to your Dad and siblings, then focus on how to successfully graduate from school and be a better person.

naive and Sturborn?.. mr man..am a fine young man..who knows wat he's doin..nd who makes mistakes..

my brother won't have dat kinda tut if harming me later...we've known each other for 20+ years..nd we both set goals together
..it's was a regrettable miss understanding

been envious?.. am working hard in my field to make my family proud...am so happy my brother got d job he's doin....its more money to d family..

But am still a students.. hoping to be like him wen I grow up..but wen someone expects u to be making money like ur brother..nd u don't av d qualifications to even get a job yet.. he makes u feel useless to d family.. like ur jst a liability not an assets

Family / Comparison In A Family. How Healthy Is It? by Acode: 9:17pm On Apr 14, 2017
Recently I got into a fight with my elder brother..nd I broke his nose..it was a very bad thing for me ..but its jst d end product of wat my dad has been planting inside of me

It all started THUS

My dad is a master comparer ..wen we wer younger ...
he wuld compare us (me nd my brothers) to anyone he deems fit even if dat someone is worst Dan us..

.comparisons like

*--.why are we not leading d youth choir in our church like d pastor's son
*--why can't i take d first position in my class like Camoru Omo Iya alata
*-- why cant I win d scholarship like lagbaja even if my school is not offering any

I could remember last two years..a relative came visiting..dis guy recently came back from Obodo oyibo..nd he was forming all single nd holy..

here comes my dad again..comparing us to him..saying d guy has gone to a foreign land nd he was successful all because he was holy nd he abstained from women..

nd all we do here is think and gist about women(we are 6 boys)..we didn't take it lightly wit him..but we let it slide.

.only to get invited to a party by dis holy obodo oyibo guy..nd we met him rocking d biggest ukwu we've ever seen..Chai!!..God punish devil

Back to my main reason for writing dis..
My dad ridiculed me so much with my brothers success.. he wuld use every opportunity to compare me nd him

my brother is a graduate nd works for a big tech company.. while i'm still a 300level student

The comparison got so bad I started hating my brother..not because he's already successful Dan me...but my dad rubs it on my face always..like I should jst graduate sharp sharp nd start working

long story short.... we fought nd I broke his nose
NOW MY QUESTION IS
I know my dad wants to motivate us with d comparisons
But is it ideal to motivate someone( brother.. friend..anyone) by comparing him to another person..

nd if ur a victim like me..talk ur story

Tradition...
Shiv was the only one in the sitting room. The others were around the house, some were out, some in their rooms, some in the garden or the pool at the back.

She sat with her legs folded up. She had her head rested on her knees.

Her phone rang. She raised her head and tucked her weave behind her ears. It was a foreign unknown number. She sighed. Choudhary again. She wondered if picking the call was the right decision. So she ignored. It rang thrice before she finally decided to pick. It was her intention to tell Choudhary off. It was completely over between them and nothing was going to bring them back together again. Never.

'Choudhary why wont you just spare me? Spare me please! I told you i'm married to someone else here. I dont love you anymore, please stay away from me please?!'

'Shivani?' The cool familiar feminine voice spoke.

'huh? Who's this?' She asked not to sure.

'its me, Richelle'

'Richelle?' Her heart thumped 'Richelle is it you?'

'live and direct baby! How are you?'

She let out a loud scream 'Rich, is this you?!'

'ouch! Keep it down will you? You wanna block my ears?'

'Richelle, are you back in New York? When did you come back from India? You surely aint calling from India are you?'

'i just got back from India three days ago. I went to your house and they said you travelled. I also spoke with Choudhary and i heard you two broke up. I got your number from him and i decided to call you'

'wow. I'm so happy you called. I missed you seriously'

'but what happened bae? Why did you break up with Choudhary? Are you married?'

I was silent.

'how could you do this Shivani? You two were a wonderful couple. You both had plans to get married and start up a family together. How could you do this to him? Do you realise he's turned into a drunk and a drug addict overnight because of your betrayal? You disappointed me Shiv. What did he ever do to you? Was he unfaithful? Did he assault you physically or sexually? Tell me, because i dont understand your reason for being this heartless'

'Rich, you dont understand anything' her voice was low and she felt the tears burn at the back of her throat 'you dont understand that happened. I didnt break up with Choudhary because i wanted to. I loved him. And i still do. But we werent meant to be. I'm married to someone else now. Against my wish'

'tell me what exactly happened dear' her voice was filled with pity and concern.

Shiv sniffed 'i came back from the states only to have my mother tell me my marriage to a royal crownprince had already been arranged'

'a royal crownprince?'

'yes. Even though my mother claims she did all this for my sake, i still know deep within that she did it for her own selfish reasons. My mother's easily taken by wealth and affluence. I know all this. I know i should have refused. But you know me Rich, i cant bear hurting my mum. I love her so much. She's been through alot for our sake, my sister and i. You know i'm not easily carried away with material things. I love Choudhary and the love i have for him could never surpass that of material things. But as it is now Rich, i'm stuck. I'm not even happy. I have no interest in royalty whatsoever but what can i do? It pains me so much. The fact that i care about Choudhary but yet i cant show it bothers me so much. You cant even begin to imagine how horrible i feel. Its like i've committed the greatest sin of my life. I feel so horrible Rich. I just want to end everything. I feel like turning back the hands of time, but i cant, i just cant' A stray tear touched her tongue and she felt its saltiness.

'i'm so sorry dear. I understand everything you're saying. I'm so sorry'

Dike dragged his legs tiredly and lazily. He was tired and hungry. What he needed was good food and a sound sleep too.
He noticed the house was too quiet.

Maybe there were swimming or at the garden, he thought.

As he was about opening the door however, he heard someone sniff. He paused.

Out of curiousity, he leaned closer. It was Shivani.

And he heard everything she said.
