None of them wants Putin's hypersonic nukes on their azz lol

They all ran away when putin tested the nuke.

In case you are still watch NTA, the USA just announced the provision of Bradley IFVs, Germany announce Marder IFV + Patriot , France announced AMX ifv yesterday.....winter offensive is about to commence following weeks of precision strikes on C&C centres and logistics hubs of RFU in ukraine...early this week almost 500 RFU soldiers were slaughtered in their sleep by Himars

You must be really ignorant to think Ukraine will be interested in a ceasefire when it can smell RFUs blood

also oil & gas prices are at their lowest in over 12 months (and this is winter period when prices should be high, Ural is trading at $50 per barrel below even the $60 price cap set by the EU)...its really bad for putin and his fan boys

Ukraine live briefing: Putin orders 36-hour unilateral cease-fire in Ukraine for Orthodox Christmas

Russia isn't going away after the cease fire . It is amassing men and material in preparation for a winter offensive. It is bringing hundreds of thousands of fresh troops into the theater. General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, knows what is looming. That is why he has urged Ukraine to negotiate, He said, "Ukraine has accomplished all they can militarily. It gets very very cold in Ukraine."

Is it from NTA you've been getting your news? Cannot be a recognised new channel that fed you this

Nope bro...I'm been an admirer of the guy's work level.

In the past, a lot drivers were antagonistic to the guy. Good to see that has changed .

If I were a driver, I would not mind evening paying him to know he grosses these amounts every month.....

Still cant wrap my head around how makes so much every month and keeps a level head doing the job. The average person will probably develop a big ego and leave to other job....really admire his work ethic.

@CheerfulGiverr if you can consistently make such amounts in Nigeria in spite of the difficult operating environment, I can only imagine how much you will make in a more structure environment doing same job

Bro, you're the enigma in this group.

Out of curiousity bro, what kind of car do you use and how often do you service it?

I came across your account over a year ago (and you had been grossing over N1M a month probably even before then.....with N1M a month over several years, most drivers would have exited the business...what keeps you doing this?

No offence...just curious to understand your flow

DenreleDave:
I want to ask this guys. If you are working for someone in an organisation, informal organisation at that.

If the boss decides to sell the company, is it legal, morally or and constitutionally right to inform the staffs of the potential sales?

Should the boss just sell the company and care less about any decision the potential buyer decides to do with the staff who were unprepared for this?

Morally, yes he should.

Legally, if the change in ownership will affect the terms of their existing employment, yes he should e.g if they have to take up a new contract with the new owners (by implication they have to wind down the offer with the current owner. The current owner is obligated to give them a notice except their contract specifically does not require it

matm:
High exchange rate from pound to dollar is the reason for japa.One pound is N543.00.
Now if ur salary in UK is a paltry N3000 a month.
N3000 times N543=N1629000 a month in naira.
If u are sending just IK home monthly, it's equivalent to N543000. which is far greater than the salary of a Court Judge here in Nigeria.
That's why people love japa

Where did you get pounds for N543? Dollar seff you cant get for this amount. If you see anyone willing to sell dollar for this amount, let me know, I will buy it off him and pay you 5% finders commission

Parachoko:
How many person dey earn up to 60k in a year in England?

£60k is a lot of money, don't be fooled

Dont mind the funny guy, people forming expert on nairaland.

May be because they hear footballers earn £300,000 a week, they assume its like that for everybody in the UK

OVB123:
That is thisame question i was about to ask, they don't know that 60k pounds annually is nothing to write home about. Nigerians need to learn that it is not as easy as their think.

£60K is nothing to write home about in the UK? Oga go and sleep. Everyone comes here to form travel expert.

£60k is a very good middle class salary in the UK that affords you all the basic good things - good mortgage, new cars e.t.c

Matinox:


Bro, it is indeed!

Bro...I know it's late now but you should have sorted out accomodation before marriage. This is really waooo .

If you have reasonable family members and inlaws and you open up to them, they will likely have cut down the wedding expense or defer parts of it or spot you some cash to ensure the cart is not before the horse

This is very uncool bro

Before settling for a country, you need to be sure it is a country that will accommodate your skill set, suitable for your personality and equally reliable for your long-term goal.

The fact that your friend was successful in Kazakhstan or South Korea isn't a guarantee that you will replicate the same level of success.

Also go with the right visa...the guy travelled on visitors visa but was looking to hold a decent job...it that ignorance or desperation?

OP sorry about this ordeal.. this is very condemnable act...
however when Tinubu proposed to recruit 55,000 army, people are mocking him,.. will you now agreed with me that with the heavy presence of military personnel nation wide, the kidnapping issues will be a thing of the past?
Food for thought!

Tinubu will solve the problem that was caused by supporting a failure for 8 years?

I will advise you to watch Judge Judy. This case won't last 5 minutes and the plaintiff will win the case. FYI, the seller had no business selling the product after it was paid for. There was already a contract. A contract only cease to exist by the consent of the two parties.

Bro....I'm not quite sure he will in the absence of a written agreement stating payment must result in supply.

Even abroad, sometimes we order stuff online that is then reported as stocked-out and funds returned. I think this happens when several people make an order for same product online.

I think a case can be made that biosilicon was not honourable in his conduct but gazzuz calling it a scam is definitely a stretch.

I once paid for rent that was returned by the landlord before the move-in date because he claimed he got a better offer. I was deeply offended but I would not call him a scammer...I just felt he lacked honour and was greedy

And for law, I believe execpt Gazzuz can show he suffered certain quantifiable loss as a result of the rescinded offer (e.g having to liquidate an investment early , taking on financial loss to generate the cash), all judge judy will order os a refund of the money.

Sent my wife back to her parents this morning with all the evidence.
I think am free now

Once again am grateful guys for all your support and care throughout this journey it was not easy but we are here.
As for my kids they are all with my ex wife I will continue to send upkeep for them.

Note I called her this morning by 5am to sort things out with her but she was not remorseful at all I was ready to let all go we can only go village and handle traditional cleansing. You know what she is bagging now.

bros take your mind off her and work on improving yourself and finding love elsewhere. If your partner has no remorse after all this, she is not worth it. Keep the relationship with your kids on, someday they will get to understand.

lajid:


Nice, it seems you are In the field. My plan is to switch to audit when I’m in.

Also the area of tax is too restrictive ( managed services - entails tax compliance, immigration tax services, payroll services. Dunno if they do transfer pricing)

My intention is to put a little pressure for them to put me in audit. That way I have better exit options.

Or better still go to another big four firm (audit).

I want something that offers better opportunities going forward and it seems audit is best for that.

What do you think

Yeah people do switch from one unit to another in the big4. In Nigeria, I think its down to some politics (securing the suppprt of senior staff in both arms or a strong business case for the move you from one unit to another e.g if you have certain skill needed there.

There's a fair chance transfers may not work out if the politics or business case doesnt click. You may check with current staff as to what your chances are.

However, as audit is now known to be an emigration pathway, I am fairly sure there would be scrutiny of such requests for its sincerity.

lajid:
I know this is not the right section but will appreciate opinions from people with knowledge on the subject matter. Tried other sections and I’m not getting replies

If it's a large investment banking firm, please go for it , otherwise go for the big4.

Investment banking will likely give you better opportunities when compared to tax....also tax is jurisdictional in nature so if you leave the shores the country, it may be a little restricted as tax codes differ across countries. There are a few tax roles with the big4 that are global but the number is limited.

Let her have the result that's my gift to her.
Bro we have come along way.
There was a time we don't have things to eat or clothes to wear but she was with me .
But today is different I was even planning to send her to UK by next year before I discovered this cheating.
But life goes on.
Am bagging God to heal my pain.
I keep my body for my wife alone even as she is living in school.
I don't have thought of looking after another woman.

Your house is on fire and you are more concerned about the damage the water used to extinguish the flame will cause to the wall paintings, then I doubt there is any way you can help the situation.

Your wife is cheating on you (according to you) but you are more bothered about how confronting her about your findings will affect her studies, then I doubt you will find any solution on nairaland.

I imagine you are also the one making the repairs? Who will be responsible for the wear and tear for the 2 weeks?

Omoapena:
Guys
Pls help me, I had an HP agreement with someone and we have gone 8months down the agreement...
Suddenly, this my partner just messaged me now that he wants to use the car during the festive period for 2 weeks.

This is HP agreement we have and not rentals and he's sounding so personal...
Pls, what do I do...

Bro...dont yield to such rubbish except it is clearly stated in the contract. If the guy will use ut for 2 weeks, it should either be taken off the lease period or he pays a rental because you use it to feed and for those period you would be rendered incomeless.

You need to emphasize this.

She can get work and continue her life. Reason I don't want to come between her success.
She have destroyed me around.
I will wait till after her exams just like I said before discussing it with her.

You paid a caterer to prepare a meal for you. The caterer starts preparing it but is dishing out the meal you paid for to others.

You notice the fraud but will not challenge it because you are concerned the caterer may get distracted and burn the food. So you'll just wait till the caterer finishes cooking.

Bros, keep waiting there

Why are northerners not too fascinated with the japa fever, 8 out of every 10 relocating are from Southern Nigeria!!

Most educated northerners have good jobs as they are more favoured in recruitment into gov agencies so they have little interest in looking outside Nigeria .

They uneducated ones are largely unenlightened about what goes on outside their communities which is why most southern candidates struggle to get their votes

Perkins1:
The hearing, we were given awaiting trial and had to be transferred to Oko prison pending when our case will be visited. The family of the guy that sets us up we're t satisfied with the way the judgment is going and how 8 of us now remain 5 had to pull strings together and one night after roll call, we were dressed in prison clothe and leg cuffed in an Hilux car to be transferred.

By morning we found ourselves in Abuja, As the policemen that brought us were doing paperworks and handing us over to the wardens and custodians of the Kuje prison. I was so tired as I had already urinated on my body because the Hilux only stop when they want to stop not when any of us asked to be stop even if you're pressed. I was at the back of the Hilux with 3 other guys guarded at each flank by arm wielding Mobile Police while two persons were in the front cabin of the vehicle. Next day we had already changed to the prison wear and assigned a cell. I was paired with some other inmates who weren't friendly nor foes as many of them were hausas-fulani, they really didn't care about me or why I am here, most of their conversation were in fafulde (don't think I got that right). At this time I had already spent 1 month 2 weeks in prison custody combine. My father now was doing his job trying to get a court to see our case and at least sentence us so he can appeal or whatever (I wouldn't know since I didn't get to find out) again, when you're arrested, then you will know why they say LIFE NA PER HEAD. Nobody not even big shoe whom I thought would give his life for me or even my Head or Zonal head to at least make some calls, I began to hate the NBM and curse everyday I led myself into this bondage.

I was highly malnourished as loss so much appetite, I hated life and started avoiding people, I was washing my uniform one afternoon by the corner when a warden came for me that I have a visitor. Me? Perkins? A visitor? How? Where? I immediately followed him because if you delay you would not be allowed to see the person. I came out, met my GF and the family of the boy that arrested us, the boy told me he has pleaded with his father that he had agreed to kill the case if we sign undertaking that nothing at all will happen to the boy or any member of his family and we will keep our distance from him in this life and next.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing maybe malnutrition has deafened my hearing system till it was re-echoed and this time I quickly accepted and a member of the family said they will contact our parents and let them know, that day was my happiest day at that time because again, I will soon be free little did I know the devil cannot give you anything for free, I was so happy that in my head I hald already started a new life. I thank my GF and assured her I am fine she shouldn't worry much that I will soon be out, she gave me 11,000 for my upkeep, I gave the warder 2k and kept the rest with me. It was a long night that night as I couldn't sleep o was just smiling and gushing over what I heard earlier today.

Our case will was rearrange as just cultist and not murderers and we are to meet with a competent court sooner than later. I started counting days and nights but it kept eloping as it draws near. Till the d day we filed in in a mini black Maria bus to Federal High Court. The judge didn't waste time as he passed judgement on us for 2 years in prisonment subject to change in behavior and good manners.

I wailed so bad because at that time I know I had lost everything, two years in prison is too hard, I would have liked to be flogged 50 strokes of wipe everyday instead. I and 2 others guys was what was left as others had been secretly released and taken to a new town hence the change in the case file, with an IPO. I a known hard and rugged demon now reduced to a mere baby crying like a woman. We were taken back to the prison and instead of feeling and praying for me, other inmates were telling me congratulations for getting two years that some of them had been there longer than the two years I was given still awaiting trials.

I took solace in my God and my fate. I was sleeping after morning drill when I was called to the waiting room and there I met one of my uncle whom stays in Abuja tho it's been long but I knew him, he told me my mum wants to speak with me on phone and he called, my mum was crying, I was just telling her I am sorry mummy, please don't cry, I am fine. I am fine thinking she was crying because of me until she said amidst cries. Nnamdi, your father is dead, he died last week on his way to Abuja for your case hearing. Immediately I sat down and look at my uncle's face for confirmation and he nodded in agreement. Then I knew I am finished.

In this life or next, if you love yourself and have any atom of humanity, shun cultism it will kill you, it will destroy the man you are inside and reduce your worth before you know it.

Don't be deceived, Cultism is evil. I will stop here, I can't continue this story no more. Peace be unto everyone.

God bless

Sorry I had to quote this in full because I believe God on this day is speaking to someone and I am happy to re-echo it.

If you still choose cultism or remain in it after this guy's story, you are a big fool. Davido did not make it because of cultism, he made it because he is from a wealthy family and has talent..I am yet to see the person that has live a long fulfilling life because he is a cultist. very foolish fellows

Sorry bro, I recall you mentioned this months ago, but seeing the whole detail, I feel really bad. Even a s a student I wondered how people chose to leave their peaceful life as students with unfettered freedom from parents to enter the bondage of cultism where they live with the hearts in their mouths that every day could be their last.

othermen:
Your father would have remarried and that would still be his house. You have to get your own house. A different pursuit from this unhealthy entitlement will only make you better overall.

Remarriage is not the issue, why would he have to leave his father's house so a stranger can live there? does that not sound abnormal to you?

A responsible man would not even agree that the former husband's only son be ejected from his father's house so he can live there. He wants to start a home, where is his own house?

A man that would do that will likely lay claim to the house later in the future

Greattestman:
Which stupid side of the story permits a mother to send her son to go and suffer while she brings in a useless street dick to enjoy the son's father's hard labour? You don't know how irritating it is that is why you are running your mouth like water tap. Wait until it happens to you.

Is there a reason why your mum isnt moving to her husband-to-be-house? Also, let your family intervene to decide/share your dad's property if he died intestate because it appears your mum is prioritizing her new partner over you

Even if they caused problems, indiscriminate shooting is bad. Controlling them should be done cautiously.
Back in the day, during holiday visits to the village, hunters and trappers used to hunt wild pigs, deers & antelopes easily. Traps caught many too.

But now they are hard to come by.

Those monitor lizards, it should be a crime killing them.

Pork is widely available now to buy.

Happy to see we have many pro-conservationist on this thread. This is not about scarcity of food because it cost more to purchase than a goat or domesticated pig, it is also not about economic empowerment for the hunter because they are very poor people and it is dangerous work.

If you leave it to politicians, these animals would be extinct before the next generation because they don't even care much about the lives of even the humans in the country.
