My contribution to this issue is that when u ban Baba ijebu millions of people will be jobless due to some of this terminal operators that stake for there customers will also loose and look at Nigeria today where will they start from. I believe kashamu came in with greedness just to manipulate and scatter everything cos of his own personal interest,
This is not about pulling down the industry. It will remain for good. Point is, are the operators paying the necessary tax.

Properties › Re: My Business Started Crumbling Since I Moved Into This Apartment by ajl: 5:39pm On Jan 28, 2020
Daumandu:
Can This Lead To The Downfall Of Someone?

I just moved in to a bigger city and a better and bigger apartment. I co-rented a flat with a middle aged man.

Now here is the problem, in my business at least in a week, I attend to nothing less than 20 clients but since one month I moved to this apartment I have not seen a single client.

Any day I do my digital marketing I am sure to see at least 10 to 20 enquires but since a month I moved to the apartment no body ever chatted me up for business.

Today I had to withdraw the last 5k in my account. The least amount I ever had in my account was 20k now I only have 500. I am someone that always enjoy the grace of God in my business but now its as if heaven has turned it's back against me. I am seriously thinking of leaving the apartment.

Any Advice?
I like testing perceived "hypothesis". Why not move away from the apartment temporarily for a very short period to see what happens.

Personally I always avoid living in apartments or homes that someone else has lived in, if I could. I only did that during my student days. I believe, "used" living abode retain the "energies" of previous occupants. What if they have "buried" something somewhere in the apartment. You know some of our people are fetish.

For example my spouse brought in a used huge and beautiful bed into our room with mattresses. Nothing was actually wrong with our own king size bed. I have never slept in that room or on that bed since then.

Wedding is a family affair and it's not a one man show. First, as a man do not feel intimated mentally by the fact that your proposed spouse is from a wealthy family, and neither should you let it show in the way you relate with your proposed spouse. How to do it?

Firstly, avoid the sentiments that come with such feeling by sitting her down and making your points clear on why you think or feel the way you do. Don't bring in the issue of her family wealth. Rather, focus on the fact as a new couple, you both must learn to be independent and only approach your parents as a last resort.

And about this wedding, i believe it's okay to accept supports from parents on both sides if the option is there. Would you have turned down an offer of support from your own parent?

We have documented soo much already they'll be no need for that.
We have news papers Facebook, pictures, videos, audios, many people even have personal diaries where they record their daily activities trust me they won't need to investigate us the way we are investigating these ancients I even took a myheritage DNA test to trace my ancestry just type "NIGERIAN TAKES DNA TEST" on YouTube
History of man on earth as we know it is still a tip of iceberg that is revealed and often are expressed viewpoint of those writing the history. Using Africa as example, we ain't seen anything yet. The sahara desert just 10,000 years ago was not a desert and surely housed multiple ancient civilizations, all buried under sand. What about those buried under the ocean? Or do you think couple of lands or water as you see today had same boundaries tens of thousands years ago?

The way we tell the story of ancient civilization that live just couple of thousands years ago is the same way future civilizations would tell our story. Now see the difference, what would last longer? A story carved on rocks as the smart Egyptions did or the story stored in the clouds. Which has more protection from the cosmic and earth natural elements. A minute "belch" from the sun alone will do.

miqos02:
are you insinuating that Saudi Arabia, Iran and Israel are supposed to be classified as Africans?
No. My point is the population thar currently reside or dominate present day north-Africa and middle-east are not the same as those who occupied these places 1000 to several 1000s of years ago. There were several invasions of these places that was largely dominated by brown to black skin people. That'll why some black Africans from ancient middle-east migrated south towards north, west, and south of Africa. Check online to search the story of the Lemba people found in current day Zimbabwe and South Africa. When these people were claiming to be jews by custom and blood, nobody believed them until a British geneticist did a DNA analysis of the population which revealed they were not just ordinary Hebrew but that they carry DNA that trace them back to the priesthood lineage of Aaron, an ancient priest and brother of Moses. And I suppose we now mostly know that ancient Egypt was largely a black/brown population until ancient Romans and others took over. It is the white man that turned everything upside down for it's own domineering purpose.

If fossil materials are discovered in Ethiopia today I wouldn't be shocked that their DNA will be traced to Fulani people in Nigeria. When we had tribalism in Nigeria we were not this low, but since racism started we have been fighting many demons.

Fulanis are not Africans , look at their hair. There are another race who migrated to Eastern Africa after Settling in the Magreb for a while. HOW MUCH DAMAGE THEY DO TO AFRICAN ANCESTRAL TERRITORY IS NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS.


The statement above looks like what Fani Kayode or Nnamdi Kanu or Nwaamaikpe above me will say.


But I tell you this. Fulanis are NIGERIANS and are beautiful people.

You however know which one is true. Na DSS I DEY FEAR O.
Your comment make no sense but display a lack of sense of history. You could have say there was mixing of population due to the transahara trade that happened largely between people of East Africa and people of the Sahel region of West Africa. East Africa in my.opinion include current day East Africa and Middleeast which was largely Africa until Arab invasions and before the word "middle-east" was coined by fraudulent minded Europeans for political reasons.

And if it's not obvious to you, Africans are the most diverse race from black eyes to blue eyes, curly hairs to straight hair, broad nose to pointed nose, thick lips to thin lips, diverse shapes of eyes to those of Bush-men of the Kalahari that look like that of chinese; and shades of black to brown skin and albinism for those that lack melanin which is also expressed in the white man. We carry all genes. What you see physically are what is expressed but recessive genes are hidden in our DNA which is why occasionally a couple of black Africans give birth to non-albino white skin child with blonde hair.
Read the story in the link, and don't even think the black mother was sleeping around with a white man because the child was totally blonde, like no hint of a black dna.

Unrestricted access to tablet and TV in the rooms of teenagers is like handing your daughter and niece to the world. It's like my wife who handed mobile phone with internet access to her 13yr old niece who just arrived from Nigeria. I usually collect and go through the phones of all the kids in the house, and she was using the phone to visit porn/lesbian sites and social media where a chap was asking her to share her nude picture. I watch her like a hawk because of our own kids. Your husband messed up big time. He should be mad at himself, not you. It's typical Nija man shakara.

Likewise pay little attention to what Dangote has to say on the amount of time one should sleep. Without his state sponsored monopolies he wouldn't have a penny to his name.
Can you blame a businessman for taking advantage of an opportunity granted by lopsided government policy. Like you will close your eyes to such opportunity if it's you. It's called business and it's part of competition in a business world. Thankfully it's Dangote, we have eyes to see what he has done with his profits from the so-called monopoly. And was he the only Nigerian that enjoyed such monopoly? Where are the others. Especially other Nigerians granted license for refineries but would rather "sell" such license to foreign entities.

Giving N5 Billion to an international charity that would spend half of it on management in Europe or USA is not a smart move. But it's your money.

A better option would have been investing the N5 Billion into young entrepreneurs and then using using proceeds from that to fund local charities. I am not sure Femi Otedola is really smart upstairs. But when person get money, na him smart pass in the face of the world. He is lucky, he got a break from inheritance that he later invested. Thankfully, he is not as terrible as Donald Trump who has gone bankrupt multiple times.
Business › Re: I Released My House Document To My Cousin To Obtain Loan, How Can I Get It Back? by ajl: 3:55pm On Jan 23, 2020
wirinet:
This is the best advice so far. Get a lawyer and sue your cousin for all his assets including the company. I just hope there is actually a company he is using to do business. Since you did not enter into a formal agreement on what happens if he defaults, it might complicate issues.

You also need to liase with the bank to know exactly how much is owed and the interest rate. It might be better to sell the property to offset the debt and make use of the balance. I am sure your house is worth more than N3 million. This still doesn't stop you from suing for the balance.
Technically, he can't sell the property on his own to repay the loan. Except if he negotiate with the bank to sell on his behalf and then the bank recover their part of the money plus interest and will leave the remaining for him. I really don't trust Nigerian banks. They will wish that nothing goes back to him.

Nah! What's the motive? The family member doesn't owe him money. He owe the bank. If he try to kill him as you think, does that free him from repaying the bank loan.

People giving their property documents to another individual to use as collateral for a bank loan happens often. And it's also common that debtors refuse to pay back the loan leading banks to pursue foreclosure of the bank through a court of law. Likewise, the 2nd party that own the property often head to the court to file a claim against the bank to release the document. I have run into cases like this.

You are probably one of the parties to the agreement with the bank. The best option you have now to prevent the bank from foreclosing or garnishing your property is for you to repay the loan plus interest. The other option is for you to get a lawyer to look for loopholes in the agreement, which I doubt there would be any because banks are pretty smart in covering their "asses". More so, 2nd option will cost you money as you have to pay the lawyer. Additionally if you loose, you may have to pay damages to the bank aside from the loan and (20% - 25%) interest. This damages is often the defendants (i.e. bank) legal cost.

If the loan amount is truly N3 million, I will advise that you look for the money to repay yourself because you are like a guarantor for the loan.

For some reasons, I think the loan is more than N3 million because what reasonable individual use a house of higher value as collateral for a mere N3 million loan. Doesn't make sense.

An example of such court case is attached where an individual is challenging the bank claim to such property.

Could this Funke Akindele attitude could be related to the storyline in one Yoruba film (LAGOS GIRLS) Funke Akindele acted as main character where she and her sibling with the help of their mother in the movie were disrespecting their father. Check the scenes in the movie especially at this timelines:

->3 - 5min
->7 - 9:45min
->1:04:44 - 1:06:25
->1:06:40 - 1:08:53
->1:34:00 - 1:37:45

Maybe this movie capture her and her sibling real-life relationship with their father.

Please can anyone tell me who this Omotuken really is?
You got this "Etan" from Google translate because you entered Cheetah with smaller letter "c" in front instead of capital letter "C". Remember it's supposed to be a noun, so Google Translate does not recognize it as a noun without the capital letter in front. It's for that reason it gave an interpretation for a closely spelled world like "cheat" which mean "etan" in Yoruba.

Change the "c" to capital letter, you will get a different result.
