Netanyahu and his confederates have blood on their hands.



I'm more angry at Mr Biden for his unwavering support for Israel, he's aiding and abetting a genocide and I won't be supporting him anymore.

Why on earth is Biden allowing Israel to use US advanced weapons to bomb innocent people and get away with it, this is completely unacceptable.

To my fellow Christian brothers and sisters supporting the massacre of Palestinians, where is your good heart?

Calling anyone that supports Palestinians a terrorist or terrorist sympathizer is absurd and nonsensical.

Where is ur good heart when Christians in Southern Kaduna and other part of the country are being massacre by fulani bandits and co? Where is ur good heart when hamas terrorists backed by Palestinians when they send thousands of rocket that killed hundreds of Israeli??

Ginaz:
which errands am I sending them apart from getting me tomatoes or milk or fish within the street as the distance is just 2minutes away.

they come to my house by themselves and sometimes I'd drive them away before they would leave. I never let them go home hungry , whatever I eat, they eat too.

I don't send them to go to the market for me or use as slaves.

Try to see from another angle the opp is coming from.
What if a vehicle/keke/bicycle knocks that child down??
In 2007 a neighbour sent her neighbour child child, on the process of crossing the road, a vehicle knocked the boy dead instantly. The widow mother till today believed that neighbour used her child for ritual.

So it's because the man doesn't have money he's requesting for your sister to come back? Probably he has lavished all he had on women and he's now looking for his wife to come suffer with him.
Your sister should move on with her life and take care of the kids.

I won't descend so low to marry a man that reasons like you. Aren't you worried your wife is not excited about sex with you? Women's sexual need are stimulated emotionally and it's obvious you are not emotionally intelligent so you will continue to abuse her emotion and expect her to be all wet for you. After 15 years, our marriage is even sweeter and I will do anything for a man that is empathetic towards me. Person say he no dey alright to cook and you still want her to fry egg. No be cooking egg be. Selfish man

Mtchwwww, we know ur type not be only 15 years, na 50 yrs.
Bunch of manipulative species.

You don't need a wife, what you need is a house girl.

Realashbobby:
Financially, I am not missing him the highest I get from him was 25k monthly after we had a son last year. If that is what your dirty mind is thinking.

I am not missing him sexually, it's just that I can't imagine myself getting down with another man.
It's somehow to me. I will rather remain celibate.

U see as a man little things matter to us. Things u women think aren't important are d the things u neglect and don't give serious attention to. For example, i came back from a journey yesterday, my wife didn't cook and was given a complaint that she had a hectic day, i didn't argue. I went out and bought bread, asked her to prepare egg for me, this woman refused, she still gave the same complaint of tireness.
I vexed, so many things going through my mind the whole night. This woman don't give me enough sex, she don't often cook for me, she don't wash my clothes. She practically don't do anything that ll make me to always run to her. Today, if divorce her, do you think i ll look back??
Im not interested in ur story but what am trying to say is, in ur next relationship pay attention to the little things he complaint most.
U have no choice than force ur self to move on, concentrate on ur son and work, try to be in the company of ur family always.
Peace.

Jewessgratitud3:
Hopefully someone leans from my story. I don't regret any of my decisions so far. I'm happy that in all, I wasn't consumed, used to a point of no return in fact if you see me, you'll hardly believe I'm 42. apart from say I get small protruding stomach ( which almost everyone has) and it's only when I eat. Otherwise its normal. So it's caused by food and I overeat.

I also don't regret not having children outside wedlock cos it would have reduced my chances of getting attention from men even at my age. Yes.. I still get attention like serious advances from single men. This is not to make a boast. In this year alone, I've had two suitors. Very responsible guy and another man but the thing with me is that I'm too picky. if I don't like you first, e go hard. So those two were not my spec and I won't trap myself in a loveless marriage just because of age or "time is going " , if it's not what I want, I won't do it. Call me anything you like, your opinion. I don't kia!

I don't know why you're pained. That was me just being witty to lighten up the tense mood of my story but your dumb olodo self cant recognize a witty saying when you see one hence holding unto it and reacting like a beheaded chicken.

Looks shady to me. There are several payment platforms where you can be paid from anywhere in the world. Why must it be a friend or relative based in the US to pick-up your payment on your behalf?

Americans don't use the word "duplex", they use the words like house, mansion, storey building or apartment complex to describe their structures.

Anybody that wants to contact the op should better tread with caution before you land yourself in hot water

Doing that to easily pick up the in USA in case of scam

See ehhh, this one u have started blaming ur dad as if he force you to do his will. The bitter truth is, u urself don't have bearing. At 27 u ought to map ur plans with various options depending the circumstances at that moment.
U said d program u did in school is sandwich, what have been doing with all the free time u had before graduating?
U just have to talk to ur dad man to man, not in rude manner ooo. Tell him ur intending plan to join the army with other plans as ur backups so ur dad ll know and understand u really know what u re doing.
U need to show him u re incharge of ur life.

Subject: Letter of Appeal – Addressing the Lack of Electricity at Kaduna State University's Kafanchan Campus
Dear sir/ma

I hope this open letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to express my sincere concern regarding the persistent issue of inadequate electricity supply at Kaduna State University's Kafanchan Campus. As a passionate advocate for educational excellence and sustainable development, I firmly believe that tackling this challenge is crucial for the overall growth and progress of the institution.

Having visited the Kafanchan Campus on several occasions, it deeply saddens me to witness the obstacles faced by both students and faculty members due to the lack of reliable electricity. The current situation not only affects the quality of education but also hampers routine administrative functions, research activities, and day-to-day operations. Recognizing the significance of a conducive learning environment, it is imperative to address this pressing issue promptly.

The absence of a consistent power supply has severe repercussions on the academic performance and student experience at Kaduna State University's Kafanchan Campus. Inadequate lighting in classrooms, hostels, and common areas not only jeopardizes the safety and security of the students but also impedes their ability to study during evening hours. Moreover, limited access to modern technological resources due to irregular power supply limits the potential for innovative research and educational advancements.

As concerned stakeholders, it is our collective responsibility to devise sustainable solutions to overcome this obstacle. I propose the establishment of a dedicated task force comprising university administrators, faculty members, students, and energy experts to explore viable options and implement suitable strategies. This task force should aim to:

1. Conduct a comprehensive assessment: Undertake a thorough evaluation of the current electrical infrastructure, identify bottlenecks, and determine the projected energy requirements for the campus.

2. Explore renewable energy sources: Investigate the feasibility of adopting renewable energy solutions, such as solar power to supplement or replace the existing power supply. Renewable energy sources can not only ensure a more sustainable and reliable energy supply but also help reduce operational costs in the long run.

3. Collaborate with local authorities and utility providers: Foster partnerships with relevant government agencies, energy providers, and other potential stakeholders to seek assistance and explore funding opportunities for infrastructure upgrades and maintenance.

4. Raise awareness and seek support: Engage the wider community, including alumni, local businesses, and philanthropic organizations, to garner support and funding for initiatives aimed at resolving the electricity issue. Conduct awareness campaigns and fundraising activities to rally support for the cause.

Addressing the lack of electricity at Kaduna State University's Kafanchan Campus requires collective effort, unwavering determination, and strategic planning. By working together, we can bridge this gap and ensure an optimal learning environment for the current and future generations of students. I am confident that with sustained commitment, we can overcome this challenge and pave the way for a brighter future for the university community.

Thank you for your kind consideration.

Yours faithfully

What Is the Common Regret People Have As they get Older?
I saw this post on a foreign group on fb.
I must say it has opened up my heart to learn.

I thought it would help the younger folks to learn and work on some patterns in life.
People that replied that post were 45 years and above

U haven't said anything, what did post say??

StOla:
How the world watched in the 20th century and let Jews from all over Europe to come settle in Palestine and take land that belonged to the Palestinians, is one of the absurdities of the modern world.

Apart from the land that the zionist Jews bought from Arabs to execute their Aliyah, they also forcefully took over land from the Arabs that was never sold to them as settlers.

The injustice done by the Jews on the Palestinians should be blamed on the UK.

Says someone who have never cry for justice to those that their ancestorial land is being taken by fulani terrorists at his backyard but have the nerves to wail at a similar scenario in far away country.

BoldBrainz:
Nigeria's biggest problem is not the political class. Our major problem is the citizenry that allows themselves to be bamboozled with tribal and religious theatrics.

For a nation with a high level of educated youths, we're too stupid and docile to be under a democratic rule. Once a section of the country produces a leader, people of that region mobilise themselves to sing "hallelujah" songs of defence for that leader, irrespective of his despicable performances.

When that happens, other voices of objective criticism are punctured and classified as "haters and wailers", yet the deteriorating state of the economy keeps crashing on the collective shoulders of everyone, tribe and religion notwithstanding.

I detest stupid and deceitful people. I may have my flaws, but I will never support a kinsman in the face of glaring incompetence or evil. And as long as we continue on this path, we'll lack, suffer and gnash our teeth in pain while we birth children who'll continue with the sorry state of affairs of our country.

I'll never for the rest of my life lend a hand of assistance to any Nigerian for free, anymore. Never!

This has always been my message to my colleagues in office who supported bad leadership especially if that person is inclined to their tribe or religion.
Imagine the kind voice that stand and kick Jonathan out of office because we all believed he didn't perform well. That only happened because he came from the minority part of the country.

Welcome aboard, it's good to have a fellow seafarer on this forum

You are lucky to be employed onboard with your age as a wiper, I think you have someone at the top who linked you up in the company and from your story i've read, You are working on an Oil tanker vessel and which could happen to be (ST company - abbreviated for personal reason).

Your job description as a wiper is to keep the engine room clean and tidy, Help out in other engineering jobs carried in the engine room... You are in the lowest rank in the engine room department, and i will advise you keep your head on the ground and learn the job instead of poke nosing on ship provisions etc or using religion stuffs in your workplace since the owner of the company shares the same faith with you.

Your next rank you should be targeting is "Oiler" this is an engine room rating personnel who also helps the duty engineer in their daily tasks in the enginee room and you must apply for the watchkeeping exams and must pass before climbing up the rank.

Then your next rank should be Fourth Engineer and this involves a lot if you keep your head down to study and get your license.

My word of advice to you: Get closer to your duty engineer and learn the piping arrangements of the vessel, boiler operation, Main engine shutdown and starting operations, purifier maintenance and other anciliaries, This will make you a good engineer in the future.

I know the Indians onboard can be frustrating but that shouldnt deter you from learning.

Also as a married man, After getting your Oiler watchkeeping certificate, You can target applying to Offshore vessels which has less contract duration of (2 months on/ 1 month off) unlike tanker vessels of 6 months contract and extension.

I wish you luck!!!

Nice input.
What ll be ur advice to my brother in law who just got appointment as a 4th engineer?

Day 2 (Wednesday 9th August, 2023)

I resumed for work a few minutes to 0800 today and went straight to the workshop to continue my rag cutting task. I had already being told by my cabin mate that I should always endeavor to get to work by 0750H. One of the ladies working in the ECR (Engine Control Room) came to call me and said that the chief engineer didn't know I had come that I should always come to the ECR first or else the chief engineer(CE) will think I came late. On getting to the ECR met some other officers of the engine room. The CE addressed all of us on being hardworking and avoid being negligent. He said he's watching and will take disciplinary action if necessary. He then dismissed us. After sometime he called me to ask for the ship I had worked before and I answered that this was my first time on board. He said I should be very careful being a first timer I should take things easy and should stay away from moving machinery until I know how to operate it. He asked for my career ambition which I told him I wish to progress to oiler then upwards. He then informed me that I should come to his cabin on Saturdays or Sundays to collect his boiler and civil suit to wash. Below is the hierarchy of the engine room ( from top to bottom):
Chief Engineer
2nd Engineer
3rd Engineer
Electrician
Fitter
Motorman
Oiler 1
Oiler 2
Wiper
(I may update in the future in case it's not correct)
One of the expatriate (of which I am yet to know his designation) came to call me that the CE wants to do some work that I should assist him. I went to help him bring in some of the things he wants to use to work in the workshop. He later instructed me to empty the dustbin which I did with the help of my cabin mate and the motorman. I also went down the engine room with both of them to clean the filter of the high sea check.
Veronica one of the ladies came to call us that provisions for the ship had arrived and that we should collect and put in store. While we were collecting the provisions I moved close to Alhaji Sariyu He told me he wondered why people are so selfish. He said the monthly allocation for the ship for food provisions is 1.2m but that everyone wants to cut their own share. From the captain, Chief Cook up to the people bringing it. We both agreed that that is the general attitude of Nigerians always wanting to get selfish benefits for any chance given to them. I was called to the 'Bridge' (Office of the captain and the ship's navigation center)today at several times to get my personal data and documents.

Where is the place of the 4th engineer

Such is the importance of a woman. Whatever glory comes to the family is to her credits though she may not always be acknowledged for it. But the Amighty who has given her that role always compensate her very well if she plays the role to the best of her ability.
Coming to seafaring and men/marriage. As I mentioned earlier, for men it's best they start seafaring at very early age, probably before marriage and keep themselves chaste. If marriage comes while you have started seafaring, you must consider very well the kind of woman you want to marry very well. If you are the kind of man that can't keep chaste consider seafaring with short contracts like two weeks onshore and two weeks offshore, or one month onshore and one month offshore. An average seafaring contracts runs at least 6 months but can extend more than that depending on conditions that may or may not be under your control. Islamically you are not supposed to leave a woman for more than four to six months except in rare cases which I know must be religious or cases to which you are helpless. So the woman you want to marry must be made to know the conditions surrounding a seafarer's life. We have been created with different appetite for food, such is our urge for the opposite sex. Some can withstand it for long and some can't, which might be no fault of theirs. So if you want your partner to be faithful then consider her condition. As for those who enter into seafaring after marriage (like myself )at least you must have understood your partner and know her endurance level. If you know this and you still go ahead into seafaring, if your marriage hit the rocks then you might have noone to blame except yourself.
Seafaring life is a very enticing life and as one of the officers in our ship said, working onboard and if you are in a good level you can get in a month a salary of a year's work on land and you don't even need to deduct any money for transportation. If you are not careful you might spend most part of your life at sea. Anyway if you have decided seafaring career for yourself, I wish you the best of luck. I welcome comments and creative criticism especially from my seniors and those that have preceded me in this field and my prayer is; 'May you never labour in vain' . Aamin.

My brother_inlaw just started his career as a 4th engineer after obtaining relevant certification but the father really spent money.
Nice write up, thanks for enlighten us into the life of seafarer. Atleast I ll have something to discuss with him the next time we communicate.
