Family › Re: My Marriage Is At The Brink Of Collapse Help Me by ajl:

Y'all didn't address a particular issue... And it's no 1 below:

1. An in-law, worst she is a woman, and you let her feed and provide shelter over your head. You invariably sold your right as a man.

2. You married as a boy, you are still a boy if you ask me. A man will not seek for help to such issue on here.

3. Find an old man in your family or some old man close to you, ask him to advice you, teach you how to be a man.

Peace!

Nice points. Especially 2nd point. It's like handing over his "husbandly" authority to the sister-inlaw. I have a useless one that "smuggled" her 13-yr old daughter into the US with plans she will live with us without informing me. I can't say "informing us" because it's hard to believe it's not a conspiracy. I just dey watch them sort themselves out with immigration. But do feel sorry for the poor kid. Some people are just useless and go about causing trouble for others. There is a Yoruba proverb that says that "if there is no crack on the wall the lizard will not have a space to enter the house through the wall".

Bros abeg no vex me this afternoon! Nigerians like awoof like how? What service is the Lagos state government rendering to home owners in Lagos to justify collecting Land use charge and property tax yearly? I'm paying Lawma fee and my street is piling with refuse. Im paying property tax and the road to my house is not motorable. Is this what obtains in other countries?
You have a point. Then demand for these things. Even the land use charges should be going to Local govt...who then use this to develop infrastructures.. not state govt... who the people are not close to.

bullshit!!!!!who the Bleep values the houses? This criminals in alausa will see a house worth N30M and say it is N600M.God must surely punish both Tinubu band Ambode.What the Bleep do they even mean by the current value of the properties? Did the landlords even tell anyone they wanted to sell their houses?
I think that's where the problem is. But paying (0.225%) $129 (N45k) on property worth $56,000 (N20 milliin) almost amount to nothing. Where I live I pay about (1.074%) $3000 for a $280k property... though there is no state income tax.

My only issue is govt accountability and Tinubu getting a cut from all these transactions.

Hello Nigerians!!


Behold our problem..
The government is the masses problem..
Yes. The people in government are the enemies of the populace. I recently sent someone to get some public info from a government agency which I need for a project. The civil servants asked him why does he want the info? They add no value to people's lives and the thing that belong to you, they will even hoard. Funny that the individual I sent is also one of them.

750000 is what percent of 13500000 - step by step solution

Simple and best practice solution for 750000 is what percent of 13500000. Check how easy it is, and learn it for the future. Our solution is simple, and easy to understand, so don`t hesitate to use it as a solution of your homework.



1. We assume, that the number 13500000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 13500000, so we can write it down as 100%=13500000.
4. We know, that x% equals 750000 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=750000.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13500000
2) x%=750000
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=13500000/750000
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 750000 is what percent of 13500000

100%/x%=13500000/750000
(100/x)*x=(13500000/750000)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (18) to get x
100/18=x
5.5555555555556=x
x=5.5555555555556

now we have:
750000 is 5.5555555555556% of 13500000

(I am not a Mathematician o... Na Nigerian Govt. Make me turn to Google o...)

... I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING YET!
What's your point? You are not making sense. You don't just throw out numbers. What's the point of using value of monthly salary to derive a percent of the monthly allowance?

Baby science. The technology behind the drone is too simple, too crass that trying to project it as something extraordinary smacks of high level retardation. There's nothing significant in constructing a drone. It's baby science. I'm saying this because of some mummified minds who'd consider it a giant stride and the tribalists who think it's an edge. This is baby science.
You are right if you say building drone is "baby" science. Your everyday drone it's more of a college level project. But drones with military surveillance capabilities and range of 100km is not a run of the mill science. Its a good way to start. Many of things we see today started with the US government funding it's military to come up with ingenious technology. Example is the GPS.

Bull shitt mennnnnn. Is that why they must go to bancork to commit crime? Nigeria is a fuckkkkin criminals and Ibo people are all ways doing drug ! (No ofeense) angry
This happen to me in Ivory Coast sometime in the late 90's. I and two other Nigerians were in a public transport vehicle heading out of the country on our way to Nigeria. We were stopped by members of the country Gendermes (national security force). I was singled out among the locals and foreigners in the vehicle and one of them told the driver and other passengers to continue their journey and that they are detaining me because I must be an Igbo and likely doing drug business. In fact the driver was about leaving and it was other passengers that pleaded on my behalf and me communicating with them in "little" the French I understood that i am not Igbo and that I am just a fair skin Yoruba boy. The story is similar to how my mother was forced out of a public transport somewhere in Lagos during the civil war on the premise that she was Igbo simply because she had a very fair complexion. She had to speak Ijebu language for them to believe her.

This was my first experience of being a Nigerian in a foreign country and it made me realize that we Nigerians have a false illusion about ourselves. We call ourselves giant of Africa but to them an average Nigerian is a potential criminal. The ethnic aspect was the mind blowing part.

Saying all Igbos do drug is like saying all Yoruba boys living outside Nigeria do fraud. We all know that is false, and that those involved in these shady way of life are a tiny fraction.
