Lagos isn't on the list Cuz it is amongst the best African cities and by far Nigeria's biggest and most developed city despite it's shortcomings which isn't only peculiar to Lagos but every other cosmopolitan and metropolitan cities

When the rainy season comes, one challenge we have is getting our clothes dry after washing them. Reason being that, the intensity of the sun is low, also, the rain falls unexpectedly, thus preventing the clothes from drying quickly. Outlined below are the tricks/ways i dry my clothes that works. [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]

1. After washing the clothe, ensure you squeeze the water out of it completely/almost completely

2. Flap the squeezed clothe to ensure that the clothe is just wet, but there are no water dropping from it.

3a. If you have an air-conditioner, take the clothe to the back of the A/C. The heat generated by the A/C will dry up the wetness of the clothe. **This may take 5-10 mins depending on the capacity of the A/C.

OR

3b. If you have no A/C, spread the cloth in the open for some time (make sure it is not raining). Leave it in the open until it's almost raining or you are about to leave home.

4. Take the clothes to the room and turn-on the fan.

5. Iron the clothes.



BUT IN A CASE WHERE YOU WASHED YOUR CLOTH AND YOU WANT IT TO DRY OVERNIGHT (esp if you have no A/C),

Go over step 1 and 2, as above,

3.Wrap the washed clothes in a clean big wrapper, then squeeze the wrapper so that the wetness is transferred to the wrapper.

4. Take the clothes to the room and turn-on the fan.

5. Iron the clothes


(LOL)
.****hope it helps.

oya take!!! GO! and steal no more

you mean you ate it all ?

BabaRamota1980:
That water you call free is there so you can do ablution. It has religious reason.

NO NO NO!!! The water is just there for everyone to use. One can barely point a finger at any rich hausa's house in Agege that there is no tap running outside of the building. If you see 100 houses on one street, be rest assured that the whole 100 houses has tap running.

Bad boys be like...

that was my vcccccccccccccccc

For those staying in Lagos, especially in areas like Agege, Ikeja, Iyana-ipaja, Egbeda, Osohodi and co, you must have noticed the massive acquisition of HOUSES by the hausas which they demolish and erect BETTER structures on it. One good part of it is that they almost always provide tap waters in front of their buildings, on[i] FREE SUPPLY. [/i]

But Most of the rich men who are yoruba, in our yoruba-state (Lagos), don't even allow anyone get free access to their house-premises.

Yet we accuse the hausas of ''bereau-de-change'' fraud, yahoo-yahoo, money ritual, self-centredness, e.t.c. WE that na claim to have a ''pure money'', how come we are not spending it on the less-privileged among us
Do you guys think I'm right about my submission?

Do you know why we double up the end consonant?

Before I explain let's look at some spelling language we need for this rule:

Do you know what vowels, consonants, suffixes , syllables are?

vowels- a.e.i.o.u (y is sometimes classed as a vowel)

consonants - b,c,d,f,g,k,l,m,n,p,r,s,t,w,y,z

suffixes are little words added to the end of a word: -ing, -s, -ment, -ed...

syllables: are bits of a word broken down with a vowel in them, and different bits can be stressed.
qua/li/fi/ca/tion begin, swimming

Let's look at those words again:

put - putting, big-bigger, stop-stopped, fat- fatten, run - running, thin - thinner, sit - sitting, get - getting, stop-stopping, hot-hotter, swim - swimming...

Do you know why we double up the last consonant?

Say these words to yourself - put/sit/run/swim/thin/get

Notice they all have 1 syllable sounds

Notice they all have 1 consonant at the end of the word.

Notice they all have 1 vowel next to the consonant:
With the 1:1:1 rule, we usually double the end consonant when we add the following vowel suffixes (-ing,-ed,-er, -est, -en, -ish, -ery, -y)

put - putting, big-bigger, stop-stopped, fat- fatten, run - running, thin - thinner, sit - sitting, get - getting, stop-stopping, hot-hotter, swim - swimming...
So words of one syllable ending in one vowel + one consonant, double the last letter before a vowel suffix.

We don't double up the final consonant when it's w, x or y

But that's not all:

*** We also double up some words that are more than one syllable when the last syllable is stressed.

prefer ("preFER" - preferring/preferred (but not preference)
begin ("beGIN" - beginning, beginner
regret ("reGRET" - regrettable, regretting
occur ("ocCUR" - occurred, occurring, occurrence
forbid - forbidden
commit - committed
refer - referred (but not reference stressed)

Remember there are always exceptions to English spelling rules!!!

Focus can be spelled with either a single or a double s focused/focussed, focusing/focussing

A lot of spellers don't know this rule but just see what looks right- "we always say that looks strange". But it's always good to know why spelling is the way it is and the rules.
