| Family › Re: My Friend Consistently Beats Up Her Mum! by Aderoy(m): 12:54pm On May 01, 2008 |
Hi @coolier, I think you should show your friend the two pics i posted in my earlier reply. Ask her what she thinks. If she about it. Ask her if she's ever giving a thought what could happen if she continues to treating her mum like a worthless scum. About my contact. Dont worry about that. I'm tired of getting scam e-mails from Naija and some other countries. Most of the e-mails claim to have been sent from UK, US or some other European country. I know how to trace such emails such that I could discover the exact computer (in terms of assigned IP address and the ISP/cafe from which such emails originate] ) from which the email was sent and the exact route the e-mail tunnelled through before getting to my inbox. I guess I'm tired of getting such e-mails so it doesn't bother me on bit revealig it. In essense I'm revealling it 'cos I'm A STEP AHEAD of all scammers (or 419ers) in their game. I don't really care, they should keep bringing it on. I remain a true Nairalander, Aderoy aderoy01@yahoo.co.uk +4470877393327

Hi @Coolier, Here to offer my 2 cents. First I must admit I have read every single reply on this thread and would like to reiterate my opinion based on the reply from Sholeyb (April 17, 2008, 01:51 PM ). I should say first and foremost that I support you in trying hard to help your friend. And certainly do not agree with those who quote from the Bible Stating “Show me your friend….” Hey common people, she’s trying hard to help. OK let’s look at it this way; everyone has deserted her ‘coz of her way of life. Fair enough, but who will offer help any help if everyone deserts her? So I support her trying hard in helping her friend. She made absolute sense with the practical solution she’s out forward. In as much as so many others has attributed your friend’s dilemma to some sort of spiritual attack. In as much as I do not deny the fact that this could be the case, let’s as well be practical by seeking legal redress as suggested by Sholeyb (April 17, 2008, 01:51 PM ). Sholeyb has offered you and your friend legal help free of charge. It’s now left to you to seize the opportunity. For those who are under the illusion that this sorta thing don’t happen in Naija, You had better wake up as such issues are not Geographically-inclined. It could happen anywhere and should be condemned outrightly. As pointed out by some Nairalanders, it is happening in Naija and will continue to happen. @Coolier, you pointed out the following (1.) Your friend is 32 (2.) your friend’s mum owns the house. Based on these two theories: The following steps need be taken: 1. Your friend’s mum should get a court injunction restraining her daughter from having access to the property. 2. If anyone (from the extended family or friend’s in Naija or UK) make baseless complain that it’s not OK (in their words “African”) to do that she should gladly offer her for adoption to these same people making such remarks. 3. She should shed the binding emotions of motherhood through trying period and take a stand to help her pikin (no matter how old she is she’s still her daughter) by seeking the help from appropriate quarters (e.g. legal and psychological evaluation). 4. She should be offered the opportunity to be psychologically evaluated (but that depends on her willingness to be evaluated). But you no say person wey dey craze (throwing tantrum at her mum at every slight opportunity) no go admit say she dey “kolo” Let all Nairalanders know your progress in helping your friend.

| TV/Movies › Re: Nigerian Movies In One Word? by Aderoy(m): 11:35am On Apr 30, 2008 |
Hello Fellow Nairalanders. This is my 2nd reply in this forum since 2007. It’s very difficult to sum it up in one word. The thing is that we celebrate mediocrity in Naija. If most of us agree that Nigerian movies are “crap” most have suggested that goes to show there are crap viewers as well. How do I mean, most of the viewers only watch crap as long as their favourite actor/actress is in the film without analysing the goods and the bad. Most viewers are being cheated by movie producers (and over 60% of viewers are not aware of this [well I stand to be corrected on with my statistics as it s guestimate] ). How on earth can one churn out millions of copies films (from planning, scenes, act, transportation, distribution etc) being handled by a bunch of individuals who’s got no clue about movie production. It is amazing how many copies of these rubbish are sold at the end of the day. Check out adverts: Its is very annoying they most often shout in adverts without any need. It is almost the same old crap pattern. Without mentioning names however, there are very good Nigerian films out there that can hold their own and compete with the very best in the world Take for example films from “MAINFRAME FILMS AND TELEVISION PRODUCTIONS” tend to be produced to high standard. Bu the best I am yet to find any matching standard for is “YELLOW CARD” (http://www.yellow-card.com/). I think this movie was shot and produced in Zimbabwe. Without being sentimental I am yet to see any Nigerian film that matches this standard (although I have being outa of the scene since late 2005 so I am not sure of the standard now). I am really sorry i know you said one word, but there is no one word that can adequately capture how I strongly feel about the Naija movies So I’d put it in one phrase: Absolute craaaaaaaaaaaaaap and down-to-earth substandard”.

| Investment › Re: Bought Transcorp Shares With My School Fees: Mistake? by Aderoy(m): 10:48am On Apr 30, 2008 |
Hi Guys. I brave the odds today to contribute my 2 cents. The Administrator of the forum will notice I have been a member of this forum since November (2007 I think) but I have neither post a single thread nor reply to any. Honestly, I should say I am a passive member and I only come to this forum to brighten up my day whenever I want my rib cage cracked outa laughter. I do not totally agree with others who "slammed” the guy up without proffering tangible solutions to the thread under discus. This is because I found myself in similar situation albeit slightly different scenario. I took a calculated risks investing =N=40,000 scholarship fund I got from the Federal Government as the best student in the Physics Department in 2001/02 session at my university. Well, I should say I am not one of those born with a silver spoon and the scholarship wouldn’t have come at a better time. But rather than utilise the money from my academics I thought as much I would have survived studying if I had not been successful in getting the scholarship in the first place. I invested the money and alas! I was better off in 2005 when planning for Masters in the UK. I not only sold off majority of my shares I also obtained progressive share report from my broker, which I included with my student visa application to the UK High Commission in Lagos. If I had lost the money as a result of de-valued share price as in your case I would have been in deep sh*t but I zeroed it that it’s a risk I was willing to take and I can bear loosing it (calculated risk). Well, to my extremely adventurous Nairaland mate who bought Trasncorp shares with his school fees. I have can say you were adventurous but took no calculated risks. The situation calls for you to ask yourself the following pertinent questions: 1. Can I afford to brave it all as some of the hard lessons to learn in life by selling the shares? 2. If the answer to the 1st question is in the affirmative, can you get your parents/friends to support you with the remaining part of the fees? (I certainly do not subscribe to you lying to your parents on how your school fees grew wings like someone else suggested in this thread). Tell them your misfortune and hope they'd understand. If they don't tough luck, move on in life. 3. Discuss with a good broker on the options available to you and make the most of it. PS: There are some in this forum who do not contribute any tangible thing to this discussion other than get their names on the board and probably show their growing ignorance. Can my fellow Nairalanders please try to make positive contribution to the thread (if you have to) or lay low as a passive member. Aderoy (UK) aderoy01@yahoo.co.uk
