Wiifesnatcher:
please what would you've done in this scenario if you're the Governor of Lagos state? please say it and let's see how sensible you're and stop using that tout as reference, not everyone can be executive hooligan

Your choice of words for a sitting governor tells a lot about your person and how you perceive/regard constituted authority

Dear Medical Practitioners,
Please, help!

What can be used to correct/push out clotted blood that is covering the womb, which is affecting normal monthly flow?

The affected individual recently had a miscarriage. Scan has been done twice and it indicated "no pregnancy/particles found".

Please, kindly proffer a solution.

Many thanks

FREAKIEST FRIDAY!

It was a stressful Friday for Ayo, who had worked double shift as he had to cover for a sick colleague.

After work, at about 7pm in the evening, Ayo had strolled to a popular lounge around Ring Road, to ease off the day's stress. He had barely settled down when he noticed a beautiful, comely and buxom lady, starring at him. However, being that his mind was yet to settle, he didn't make any meaning out of it.

Before the waiters could come get Ayo's order, the thick, coke bottle shaped like lady, walked up to him with her 1 litter of Don Simon and said, "hello loner, I am also alone here and it appears we could share a few drink together. Can I sit? Off course, Ayo responded in the affirmative, and she joined him.

After she settled, she told him that her name is Alero, but, he can call her Lero.

They ended up sharing 2 more litters of Don Simon as they caught up with happenings around themselves and all.

Whilst on their 4th litter of Don Simon, Ayo asked that Alero change her sitting position and come sit beside him (she had sat opposite him all the while). And like an Xmas chicken, she willfully changed her seat and sat beside him.

Two (2) glasses into their 4th litter, Ayo stretched his hand and placed it in between her hips and boobi. What are you not even saying? Ayo woke from his slumber. Or, are you a slumberer?

Realizing that she didn't adjust or decline his gesture, he stretched his hands further and used his long hands to stylishly cup her avocado shape like boobi. O mehn! Avocado boobi na your mate? After all, avocado pear dey go well with bread or rice. Are you not a Nigerian?

That act of cupping her boobi sent waves into her Physics, through her Chemistry, then, her Biology gave her a Further Mathematics calculation that sent transmission into her fountain, leading her to let out a soft moan, "ayum, ayum, ayum, like a stray cat that missed her way. Kai, Zoologist, ayeh!

Then, she got up and asked Ayo to accompany her to the rest room, that she want to ease herself. Even if na you, you no go find tissue follow her? Abi your pimpim na for fancy?

When they got to the rest room, Alero pretended as if she wanted to give him her purse to hold. As he stretched his hand to take it, she held him and dragged him inside and closed the door behind them. Choi! Dem wan loot palliative!

She brushed her lips against his as if she was trying to brush off mouth odour from his cavity, while her hands traveled down to his junction box, through his circuit breaker. Electrical Engineering no be beans at all!

After a thorough handling of Ayo's Pleasure Park to ensure it was ready for Fast and Furious (Paul Walker, RIP), Alero turned, backing him and took her short gown upwards and held the water system cover, while bending like she wanted to wash the bathroom floor, and the entire cheese was up in the air, at the mercy of Ayo, to temper justice without mercy. My Lord, may I, or, may i not?

Abeg, my oga needs my attention, make I go answer am, I dey come!

Never trade what you desire most for what you want at the moment!

Church dropouts, at what point did you know/feel that you'd be dropping out? And what eventually made you drop out from attending church?

For me, immediately I understood that parishes are given target of an amount (akawo collections) to return to the Diocese on monthly basis, I knew it was time.

When I learnt that special registers are kept for tithers and their names published (more like naming and shaming) at the end of a period, couple with the fact that religious leaders do not appear at funeral of their non-financial committed members.

And finally, when the Priest told me that I'd pay him for marriage counseling, fuel the church generator and give envelops to all the Priests, present on my wedding day. I knew I had to praise God from my house.

What made you stop attending Sunday Service?

DaddyRochie1642:
Oga tell us the truth,

This one you went back to memory lane to write this Epistle, Do you wish you had seized your opportunity that time and taken your own share of the Kpekus

I don't fish in troubled waters, hence, I avoided her.

Secondly, I already figured what she was into and I can't be proud to roll with her

AVECDEO:
Guy you really tried controlling yourself...abi na the money you go spend make you reason well?

Many of us guys are not that disciplined even to the extent that you of avoided he attached carrot dangling dangerously at the end of the string...Kudos.

She never asked for a dime from me.

The deal is, i was building my career then and avoided distraction, especially an obvious one

stobery:
When you are ready to tell us the whole truth, we are waiting

You have just read the truth in black and white. I am old enough to state what happened if it was beyond the aforesaid

About 11 month's or less into my career, I met this beautiful lady that kidnapped the undivided attention of all my male colleagues whenever she stepped into the banking hall. You need to see how they willingly submitted their unsolicited attention to her like vehicles at a halt before a traffic light, patiently waiting for the light to turn green.

Wait, before you ask if I wasn't also staring at her; I did, but as a well raised gentleman, I starred from my side views. Trust me, even FBI and CIA put together will never catch me staring at a lady, as I applied the "Gentleman's Creed" (thou shall not be caught staring at a woman. And thou shall not stare lustfully).

Damn! This lady is moulded like a Range Rober Evoque, full option, 2050 model and carried herself with pride, like Globacom. Nwata di godunu ka duplex na Ikoyi, (the lady is like a well sculpted duplex at Ikoyi, Lagos).

The first day this lady came to my desk, I almost made mistake as I was smitten by her carriage, pose and charisma, and she smelled like Allamanda Flower in a well illuminated and air conditioned livingroom.

She patiently waited for me to be done with the customer in my front (I was a Customer Service Officer) before politely and charmingly asking me to assist her deposit the money she came with into her account because of the crowd in the banking all that day.

After that day, helping her became a routine as she came often and would come straight to me armed with this irresistible killer smile that could make a man go to war like David, in the bible.

She graduated into addressing me as "Baby" and then, we exchanged contact.

She'd bring me stuff like snacks, drinks and icecream. On about three occasions, she brought cooked food, which I refused to eat to avoid eating BOYS FOLLOW ME. No be love I dey find for Portharcourt, na Money. I be proper Nnewi man.

And those aforesaid meals I refused eating were devoured by my colleagues who said; "Oh boy, if this one trap us, we go even give her our certificates, no wahala"!

She'd call me often to check up on me, buy me gifts such as perfume and even gave me some mind blowing gifts on one Valentine's Day. However, these was a "but".

This paragon of beauty I am on about often came to deposit almost only on Monday mornings. And if you are thinking what I thought, you'd realize that most Escorts (trained and presentable runs girls) always have money to deposit in the bank at the beginning of every week, as weekends appears to be their peak period.

Again, her account balance was scary. I mean, as at then, I have not made quarter of what she had as account balance in one of her accounts. Meaning that, she had bourgeoisie as clients.

On one occasion, she came to the bank with USD and it aroused my curiosity and my face expression said it all. And in a bid not to get me miffed, she said, "Baby, one big man dashed me". "He did not even ask me for anything". In my mind, I was like, dashed you indeed. Onye Uwa (worldly person)!

People of God, I stylishly avoided that lady knowing my house until she relocated to Lekki, Lagos, years ago.

And guess what? She is currently a globally known Escort in Nigeria. Her Instagram ID starts with S, while her real name starts with C, and she's from Abia State.

I shall never be tempted beyond my ability to resist the devil.

Never trade what you desire most for what you want at the moment!!!

DonEd:
Greed is making you forget that the less preferred lady is whose money u took to get rich and even think of donating to motherless babies home.

How you men think sometimes amazes me to the high heavens

Hope you know the money was stolen, not that she lend him the money wilfully.

Na person wey help you willfully deserve pity

@AFONAMARO:

Interesting convo with your wife/family.

Where I start losing interest in these types of threads fast is when I begin to read 'women were trained/taught not to aspire to anything' bla bla because the reality around me (not even my extended family) (for two generations and counting) and counting is different.

Maybe this is a cultural thing because housewifery is very discouraged (infact, the word for wife is Iyawo Ile (housewife) and husband is baale Ile (head of house/home).

Alluding that stay at home wives (wives who do not earn) are liabilities mean the individual has no grasp of what marriage and family life is all about. Women need to learn about their identities so they stop comparing themselves in relation to men. A fish will think himself stupid all his life if he is compared to a bird.

I have also realized that some women do not have dreams of earning or becoming the next Dangote or Alakija or Awosika which is fine. Some men do not have dreams either and work just because they need to feed their families. I have a colleague who has to use the continuity of their marriage to make his wife work. She did not see the reason to because her husband is the provider culturally.

It is so funny that we do not see that men still enjoy these comparison with them. On traditional roles, A man cannot cook nor clean and he gets a wife with his full chest; nobody calls him a domestic liability A woman wants a provider and suddenly she is called a liability.

According to Collins dictionary, a liability is someone who causes a lot of problems or embarrassment. Also burden, inconvenience, drawback, impediment etc.
How is God's name does a wife who is doing every other thing than bringing in money accept the tag above all because her husband provides the money?

My point is that this discussion is much more complex than we make it seem and there are a lot of moving parts.

Kudos to you encouraging your girls to be whatever they want to be (If the opposite is a thing around you). LoL @ 'they can do everything': no human being can do everything

@women deserving more than they are accorded: please explain further.

The average Nigerian man thinks/believes that a woman's priority should be laced around marriage and child rearing, and that a woman's dream is subjected to the wish of her husband once married. And this has been one of the biggest issues facing single ladies as their parents in most cases, have already given them the orientation that the goal is to attract a man, get married and start making babies.

Owing to the above, most young Nigerian women have been subjected to accept that their biggest achievement would be, getting a man and settling down, while fulfillment comes from being able to make babies for their respective husbands.

About me telling my daughters that they can do anything/everything; we all have different workable ways or measures (words of encouragement) we prefer to adopt in motivating our kids to do better, which they'd make better meaning of, when they are grown and start making decisions for themselves.
See the aforementioned phrase as my own approach towards ensuring that my kids do not see any ladder as too big for them to climb, towards attaining a set goal or target.

chinchonglee:
That italian man face na die...

Lol!
See face

MODIFIED: Those of you saying women can marry anything for money are stupid.

I think most of us men will marry a 99year old granny jst for citizenship.

She did the right thing, jst that her friend betrayed her.

Who are mad pple quoting me because i said she did the right tin.
Yes she did the right thing. Afterall she gotarried to the said man. She was tired of the marriage and wanted out.
Divorce happens in life.

Why didn't she divorce the white man before marrying her Nigerian husband?

Anyway, greed has finally killed her

JovialJune:
Nice one Op.

Thank you

Iyaebe:
All I sha know is that my husband will be the one to be doing everything financially,its a taboo where I come from for a woman to contribute financially.

And what happens in case of eventuality? You'd start putting the burden of your kid's on another innocent man, whereas you failed to plan your life.

Marriage is not a poverty alleviation scheme, neither is it a skill acquisition program. Build and improve yourself for a better tomorrow

Kobojunkie:
Your story is that you are doing it.

But is your wife and other mothers out there doing it? Or are they sitting back in the delusion expecting things to magically change, as our mothers and their mothers before them also did?

Unless mothers wake up to change the way they live their lives and raise their gals and boys, the cycle is bound to continue.

Your assertion is why we are having this problem in the first place. Why are you putting the blame on women alone? What is the work of the man (father/husband) who claim to be superior over women and an alpha male?

Until fathers/husbands (men) learn to play their role in raising the home (family), things will keep going south in the family.

A man's job is not limited to provision, but protecting and leading by example

Klass99:


Seven blessings to you for this entire post and 21 kisses in particular for the bolded part.

Hehehe!

Many thanks

Kobojunkie:
Our parents and those before them did it wrong but are we doing it right today?

I personalised it by stating how I am raising my daughters as well as my resolve to ensuring that wifey is on the right path.

So, the question is, are you doing it right, today?

You know, I am someone who believes and advocates that women should be treated right and accorded maximum respect. If you call me a FEMINIST, you might not be economical with truth.

Two days ago, I was having a discussion with wifey when I suddenly asked her what her long term goal is, as a mother and a wife. And as expected, she was smitten by my question and had to take a long breath to respond. Yet, her response was vague and illusive.

It's not entirely her fault, neither is it the fault of "most" women out there who believe that their priority when single is, to get married, and when married, to make babies for their husbands and relax while their husband's take care of them and probably dies from suffocation of excess bills to cater for.

As someone (feminist) who believes that women deserve more than they are accorded, I deemed it fit to start from my home. I will be the biggest hypocrite if I preach equality and fairness for women whereas my wife lives in bondage and cannot speak up or have a say in her own life, hence, I popped that question to wifey, in anticipation that it would stir up the awareness in her to demand and acknowledge that she worth better, by striving to have things going for her.

I have always taught my daughters that they can do anything/everything. In fact, I have stylishly eliminated "I can't" from their dictionary and I have been elated to see them struggle to make the right decisions even at their tender age.

Our parents had made the mistake of telling our sisters and wives that their focus should be on getting married, and after marriage, making babies and looking up to their husbands for change (little money they can make for/by themselves). And in turn, this has rendered so many women incapacitated immediately they lose their husbands as well as the male factors (providers) in their lives.

The above reason is why women are wrongly perceived as liabilities and people who only bring sex to the table in exchange for what their husband/boyfriend provides.
This is totally wrong and unacceptable as women are worth more and can do better.

"Most" men can do little without the assistance of their girlfriend, woman or wife, as regards taking care of themselves (washing their clothes, dishes and grooming). Whereas, a woman can do these and more by herself without depending on a man.

Let's help increase the worth of our women by encouraging them to do better, by empowering them, teaching them and supporting them to chase and build their dreams. They are not in competition with us (men), neither are they less of a human.

Never trade what you desire most for what you want at the moment!!!

About four years ago, I met Pat through a mutual friend and we all got along like pals.

I later found out that Pat has an untapped skill (passion for cooking), and damn! Pat can cook away your soul.

During one of our Management Staff Trainings in my former place of work, we needed someone to offer catering services and I felt that was a better opportunity to affirm Pat's catering ability as well as rendering a helping hand to nurture her passion.

I reached out Pat and asked if she can provide lunch for about 50 persons and what the cost implication would look like. She gave me a quotation which I didn't bother to haggle since I was on about supporting a friend to turn her passion (skill) into money.

Agreement was reached and Pat supplied the meal accordingly. Believe you me, that was one of the best Party Jollof Rice I had eaten all my adult life. I mean, my colleagues including me, asked for extra meal as it was well prepared and tasty like a beautiful woman laced with good morals, character and armed with a coke bottle shape.

After that event, I conveyed Management's regards to Pat for a job well done and I was elated to have helped a friend.

Then, during a seminar organized for two states (Rivers and Akwa Ibom), caterers were asked to submit bids to handle catering services for about a thousand (1,000) persons, and being among the Committee appointed to handke staff welfare, I lobbied for Pat to get the contract, which she got as I got the backing of my co-committe members from PH Branch, who had tasted her meal.

However, that was the biggest mistake of my life that ended up putting me in the bad books of my then boss, which led to bad blood between my boss and I as we are no longer close and have not spoken for about a year plus.

On the day of the event, Pat did not only ran late, but only supplied meal for about 400 persons as against 1,000 we paid for. My phone kept ringing as I was the person who knew her one on one and had pushed for her to get the contract.

Pat switched off her devices to ensure I could not reach her. Only God knew how I managed the situation and sorted meals for the remaining 600 persons.

When the event was over, I was summoned by Management to explain why I brought someone to dupe Management during the event, and why disciplinary measures should not be taken against me.

I was made to refund the money for the 600 persons Pat did not feed during the event, which I did from my purse.

FAST FORWARD TO NOW

For few days now, Pat has been calling me to assist her with just 3,000 or thereabout. I have not been taking her calls neither am I willing to help her.

You know, nice people do have a breaking point, and I have reached that point with Pat.

Your ability might take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

Amongst the three known Angels (Michael, Gabriel and Bright Morning Star), The Bright Morning Star (Lucifer) was gifted with all the musical prowess and tunes inside of his belly, as he can move mountains with his singing abilities. But instead of allowing praise and worship to be rendered through him to God, he wanted the praise and worship to come to him. And he lost his place.

Be careful how you handle your abilities and the people positioned by God to assist you nurture those abilities.

Never trade what you desire most for what you want at the moment!!!

So yesterday I was gisting with my friend then the issue of rape came in.

I asked my friend, why do men rape? My friend told me "Sarah, there are so many reasons men rape. The major reason is idleness. Once a man is idleness his mind is open to accommodate many thoughts plus thought of rape. Mostly the poor rape."

I took a deep breath and replied. "The rich and hardworking men also rape. What could be their reason(s)?"

"Sarah abeg leave me joor. You and rape."

My conclusion is, men regardless their class, race or financial status, they all rape.

A Man City footballer is currently facing trial for rape.

Top rich men rape.
The poor men rape.

Best bet is to keep a girl child away from the male folks.

You are obviously an attention seeker. You mean your mother kept you away from your father to avoid him raping you?

The male folks in your lineage must all be rapists, which made you drop this silly assertion

I don't mix business with pleasure. The most qualified and competent person gets the contract without blinking.

Contracts/business shouldn't be a thing to play politics with

I and wifey are engaged in a 8 - 5 kind of job, and we have 3 kids.

We cook twice in a month (1st and last Saturdays) and it lasts til the next month.

We both wake by 5am. I bath and prepare the kids for school, while wifey on the other hand, warms and packs their meals.

I do school runs and homework with the kids, while wifey takes care of laundry and dishes.

This way, no one is over laboured as we assist and compliment each other.

Your husband should fold his sleeves and get involve in running his home, you ain't a maid. Marriage is for two adults, not for a woman and a baby man waiting to be looked after

I currently work in one of the Third Generation Banks as a full staff. Currently I am on the second level in the sales department, salary is good, being considered for promotion which hasn't come in a while, based in Abuja with family and all.

Got an offer with a better 3rd generation bank. next level in a different department, higher pay but will have to relocate to Kaduna. Report directly to a Group Head, will have a dedicated car but greater responsibility.

The current place is like my comfort zone, I'm well known and I've been here for Seven years.

Please advice whether to move or not.

You shouldn't be asking this question, you should have resumed in Kaduna since last year.

The fastest way of growing in banking, is by moving from one good bank to another. Often, this movement comes with promotion (the next level), better pay, exposure and contacts. In all, growth!
And you are better positioned since you'd be working with the Group Head. This means, steady growth and advancement (promotion every 2 years), talking from experience.

Grab this opportunity and never look back, provided the third generation bank is not among those struggling to survive

FairlyUSEDpussy:
Well........aint an experience banker but then i will tell u to leave your comfort place and take challenges.........that had make u gain garner experiences...........

Hello guys, please what's the cost of changing a defaced vehicle plate number at FRSC?
I was stopped and issued a ticket of 3,000 for driving with a defaced vehicle plate number.

According to them, it's been on air that defaced vehicle plate numbers should be changed as it is an offense to drive with a plate number that is not visible from a distance

..so u are the person to dictate who a strategist should counter? You think Pere is daft like the average Nigerians who want to dash 90 million based on emotions and not sense, wit and tactics?
.
Many of u don't know WhiteMoney is playing a very dirty game,cos he's funny and very subtle abt his counter attack u people don't know... A smart person will see it
.
.how many times will WhiteMoney talkdown on people using comedy. He does it all the time and people laugh not knowing he's using them to shine...that's a strategy. Combine wit his over zealous kitchen affair...he will gain more power.....
.
WhiteMoney was advising Sammie one time...and told him he should remember he's hungry before he came to BBN...lol...that's condescending...he can choose a mild word other than using such degrading word..cos Sammie looks broke. He can't use that word on Pere.
.
You see, head of house is a strategic position designed by BBN.. u can use the power the way u feel...Pere will counter any body in the house if need be, he understands the game...
.
U people have victim mentality and not a player mentality

Your choice of words and sentiments since you created this thread is obvious for even the blind to see. If you like a contestant, project him/her without trying to run anyone down.

Pere's inability to stand White Money is evident as he keeps going after people to conspire on how to bring White Money down after his first attempt of evicting him failed.

White Money has proven to have content which has arguably earned him the viewers choice so far, while Pere, on the other hand, is laced with unnecessary bitterness, bickering and animosity for people he feels threatened about. Dude that woke a lady in the middle of the night to preach love, and after he was rudely turned down, he still went ahead to appoint same lady as his deputy. What a weak man!

Let's wait until Pere is nominated for eviction to test his popularity and strength.

Just so you know, Pere is a snitch, and people like him don't go far

Oktane:
Sir, I wasn't trying to convince you.

I was equally mesmerized myself.

But I got talking with someone very very high up (and he should know)

He explained the circumstances leading to this 'anomaly' and it made some sense.

We live in surprising times.
Indeed, almost everything is possible. It's a phenomenal world for those of us steeped in 'how things have always been'.

Perhaps you will remember this thread in the future when you ascertain the validity of the claim above.

Good day to you.

Except you and I are not talking about the same DM grade that takes at least 12 years to attain

Oktane:
Yes you can. Of course it's a rare feat. I know a few of them in like 3 different banks. But again, it's like the proverbial camel and needle anecdote.

I will struggle to believe this as I am quite aware that it takes one at least 2 years to be promoted to a next level (that's for those fast enough and favored), and we're talking about moving from ET 1, ET 2, ABO, BO, SBO, AM before DM. Haba!

It's not possible

angelfallz:
What is the lady's name and the bank?

She is from the Eastern part of the country and her native name starrs with O. Her younger sister just left FBN as a Manager, and she also pulled her bother in-law from Zenith who was an AM. He's now a full Manager where she is

COMPAQ:
I left banking in 2006 as a DM in Treasury, so I know what obtains!!

There are not that many 'bankers' that really should be respected. If for nothing else the roundtripping and forex scams many of these bankers have engaged in have been detrimental to the nation. From Jim to Tony, most of them carefully manage their public images, while doing dirty transactions in private.

And those who work under them are not any better. In fact, you will rarely rise to position of ED if you are not one of the CEO's 'boys', meaning your hands cannot be entirely clean.

Whilst I agree with your sentiments about the politics and dirty business ongoing in the banking industry, it's worthy of note that I am on about we not defaming people who are yet to be proven guilty in all standards and even before the law.

I was also an insider and had worked with 3 out of the current top 5 banks in Nigeria before bowing out.

Yes, the growth in the industry is slower than that of a tortoise for most neutral and straight-headed bankers, but there exist some fortunate bankers who were opportuned to climb the ranks through determination, passion and God's grace

COMPAQ:
Yeah everybody knows their onions till they are caught in the act! What is there to learn in marketing in Banking. There is little science to it. They just beg for money.

Same way Hushpuppy was an astute businessman
And Invictus Obi was a leading entrepreneur under 30years
And the aide to Ogun State governor was a leading young politician of our time.
And Toke Makinwa (radio host) is a successful businesswoman

Eloquence, passion, tenacity and oratory are not gifts easily bestowed to everyone.

Whilst you may want to disagree with her career growth as you are clearly entitled to your opinion, strive to differentiate between being defamatory from spewing facts, your comparison between international known fraudsters to a well known and respected banker speaks volume.

COMPAQ:
Eventually she will use sex to get a job and surprise, surprise she will use sex to do well in the job and become many intelligent people boss.

I hear there was this popular senior babe in Zenith bank that was dating the then CBN Governor. This was like 15years ago. On basis of that relationship, she was able to get so many big accounts that this babe was being promoted like every year. In some years sef, she got double promotion. From Entry level to DM in like 3 years.

Incorrect, you cannot move from ET to a DM level even in 5 years, not to mention 3 years.

The lady you are talking about did so well for himself and knows her onion. In fact, she's an ED right now in one of the new generation banks
