Hi
Thank you for opening this post. Your contributions will be greatly appreciated!

I am barber, just turned 19 few weeks ago and I am supposed to start my uni education tomorrow but that is not the problem.

I earned upwards of 40... Maybe 60k most of which I aid my siblings with. But it's too demanding, like 14 or 15 hours a day everyday. And I have some skill trading forex but I don't do it now.

Right now I want to drop barbing and possibly school to learn blockchain development. My mom will prolly take me for deliverance. Lol.
I am buying a laptop tomorrow. Already dropped social media, right now its just Reddit and NL.

I am greatly worried about my future and tired of living inna trap.

I remember learning about Bitcoin like 7 years ago but couldn't get in till this year.

My parents can give moral advice but I need you on this one. Thanks

Misleading..

PediakAuthor:
In the early hours of yesterday, 1/11/21, just before the breaking news of the collapsed building in Ikoyi. I was passing by a construction site (a storey building) in my area - it seems like an event hall to me.

I decided to branch the site - just to say hi to the bricklayers and the casual workers, and perhaps to learn new things.

I approached them by saying; "how far na? How the work dey go? Me self, I be Engineer o, I just say make I come see wetin una dey do 4 here." I said.

Immediately, conducting a visual inspection on the site, I noticed the low quality of the blocks on ground, most of them were broken, I got more curious and inquisitive. It was so obvious that the quantities of sand were more than the cement, and by the matter of fact, some of the blocks were already broken perhaps during the process of offloading the substandard blocks.

I took a step further to conduct a simple strength test (static pendulum swing on a broken piece of block) and impact test (punch) on an unbroken block. The Broken piece of block failed the first strength test woefully - rated about 20% strength.
For the second test, that is, impact test, I used my hand to punch the block (the Anthony Joshua style) , sincerely, I did not apply much force, the block scattered with just a little blow. OMG. I was bothered about the situation.

Some of the site workers were looking at me during the process.

I was actually concerned about the structure standing the test of time... so to say, I started challenging the bricklayers that why would they use such blocks for building? I said that's the major reasons for building collapse in Nigeria, and that innocent people and random visitors could be the victim of such negligence in the future. I specifically said; "where 2 bags of cements were to be used, people would use 1 bag just to cut cost."
And most times, that's why you see cracks on buildings after it has absorbed little raindrops. It's a RED SIGN for its structural sustainability.
One of them replied, "na so the supplier bring them come give us o", another worker said; "e fit be say na rain cause am..."

I said in my mind; "shey awon eleyi normal sha ? "

I left the site so bothered. Afterwards, I approached an elderly man that resides around the site and narrated the whole story to him and his company; how the blocks were looking so substandard and how I conducted 2 strength tests on the block - and they failed woefully.

The elder man pointed at another sets of blocks to me; he said; "those substandard blocks were made with machines, but these strong blocks were made with hands." Lo and behold, by the time I conducted a strength test on these second sets of blocks, they were much more stronger than the former, with a rating of about 80-95% strength. I gave it a punch, but with no effect.

I left the area, quite sober; I started thinking about the self-wickedness of humanity, and something came to my mind, that; God is not wicked, God does not do bad deeds, wickedness and evils are the handiworks of the heathens, and that, someday, such structures being built with substandard materials might collapse and people would start blaming God.

Few hours later, I saw a related news on Nairaland, about the collapsed building in Ikoyi, Lagos State, I become so emotional. I said to myself; Just one man's corrupt act and negligence might have led to this, or maybe someone actually tendered QUANTITY in the place of QUALITY just to maximize profits. All these risks are avoidable if we tend to do the right thing - so that no man would blame God for such unnatural occurrence. It's like a Chess game, a single wrong move might lead to a woeful defeat.

No be say I dey do amebo, it's just the strife against societal irregularities is a collective role, and the masses have a crucial role to play in the cause, likewise the designated governmental bodies.
And by the matter of fact, I've always been writing about related issues as such, in fact, I featured this theme in my 2018 book, titled; "The New Ekiti Dream". As attached,
that's page 17 of my long-term policy book.

On a conclusive note, one of the reasons why we always need to take proactive preventive move is that it could be anybody.

Here's my recommendation;
For the innocent masses not to be caught-up in subsequent flames as such, I think we need to establish a very serious regulatory outfit, perhaps, The Department of Quality Control in each Nigerian State and the concerned subjects MUST be ready to comply and adhere to all the laid-down rules of engagement for the construction ventures.

Secondly, the Government should delegate a special duty to some MOBILE QUALITY CONTROL AGENTS to ensure the regulatory compliance of ALL the construction works in Nigeria. At least, some qualified unemployment youths could be engaged for such processes.

My duty is to WRITE to make it RIGHT!

God bless y'all readers.

I hate it. I’m 41, never married, no kids.

I’ve been close…twice. But ended both relationships when they were caught cheating.

I’ve dated several men since then, most older than me, and they seemed to be in no hurry to even be in a committed relationship. Which is crazy to me that these men are mid-40s and still trying to hangout with the guys and party. I met a whole guy group of friends in Houston 2 years ago…all single, all 36–45 years old. They were throwing house parties during the quarantine…parties!! ��

When I was in grade school, I was told to get a degree, don’t get pregnant, just enjoy being single, make friends, keep dating, and the right man will find you.

Now that I have two degrees, traveled the world, developed hobbies, and avoided pregnancy…my doctors are telling me to just be a single mom because I’m running out of eggs as I type this message. �

I beat teenage pregnancy to be considering single motherhood at 41. �

Damn you, parents, counselors, pastors, and everyone who gave me that advice. I can’t get that time (or my eggs) back. I hate being single at this age!! ��

To be honest with you, the very existence of the institution (monarchy) is not fair to the people the imposed monarchs claim to Lord over.
Its just a culture shock, nothing more.
There are stages a community of people pass through before kingdoms are established (it takes centuries) not a stroke of pen.

If Ndigbo were meant to have kings, they would have been that way before the Europeans came.

And please note that monarchy in Igboland is not for the people, they are Civil servants of the Federal Republic of Nigeria under the direct command of the State Governor(chieftaincy edict).

I doubt there is any monarch in Igboland the community will risk being scratched if people like this come for them.
No single community

Reading through this thread https://www.nairaland.com/6812771/robbed-thieves-placed-palm-oil made me create this to narrate my own ordeal.

All fingers pointing to his friend. I don't think he should be carried away.

I had an experience one time although nothing fetish was involved.

Someone cleared my account and made away with my life savings running into 400k plus.
The guy was so smart but luck later ran out of him. First, he had been watching for a very long time as he had access to everything about me. I just lost my phone and I was using a small torch light phone then. Long and short, he registered for UBA Mobile banking on his phone and he had gotten my card details the day I begged him to borrow me his phone to pay for a stuff online. I didn't know he activated the screen recording and from there he got every of my card details. Shortly after, after he had activated the mobile banking. he transferred #350k to a paga agent and as God would have it the money hung in the air due to bad network. He went ahead to credit a newly created betting account with #120k. I have never indulged in betting all my life.

The next thing I saw in my inbox was a message from an unknown number telling me I will regret ever trying to drag babe with her. Which was really shocking as I can't remember ever stooping low to fight a fellow man because of a lady. I have never done that and will never do that, no insult intended please.
Turned out the message was to sway suspicion, to cause me to start imagining who could be targeting me because of a lady while the real culprit would remain unnoticed.
The guy most have waited all his life expecting the paga agent to receive the money that never entered.

The money was finally reversed to my account the next day which was when I saw my balance and saw that more than 100k was missing. What happened, was that, the guy that carried out this act had access to my phone and he deleted the alerts while I didn't suspect a thing. The other thing he did was that....

He went to the agent hours before doing the transaction. Requested for his details and told him he had transferred the money already. He waited for a while knowing fully well that he didn't do any transfer. The agent asked him to drop his number that he would call him when he finally sees the money. Mind you, this particular paga agent was in a different city from ours. It was after he returned home he now did the transaction and coincidentally the money truly hung in the air as he already lied. I Sha was credited the next day (Sunday) and to my utmost dismay, he was the very first person I narrated my ordeal to out of frustration and he still went ahead to tell me what to do while sympathizing with me and as well raining curses on whoever carried out the act. Not knowing he was the very person.

How he was busted.

I went to bank the next day being Monday and UBA was really helpful. They gave me the details of the paga agent and the manager was so concerned about my case that he personally decided to message the betting site himself. The tears in my red eyes and the catarrh in my nose plus the hiccups must have really driven him to no choice or perhaps it's just God. He asked me to go to a nearby police station and make reports that they will tell me what to do. While I got there and they were asking for bribes inspite of my situation I returned to him (the manager) out of frustration and he decided to cut corners for me. I sincerely don't know how he did it.
All I know is that he sent sportybet a message and he asked me to come back the next day. The next day, Tuesday, I was there and he said they haven't replied him. I even thought it was the usual gimmick to frustrate me into moving on. I went back there the next day Wednesday and to my greatest surprise, the details from the betting account into which my money was credited was staring at me on the computer screen of the manager. I didn't need anyone to tell me who the culprit was. I was even thinking someone probably created a parody account of this culprit so as to further sway suspicion. But it was real.

It was John, my roommate of 3 years, my supposed best friend of 13 years. We've shared everything together in between these years. A feel for friendship wanted to let me overlook the whole thing but then when I thought about what I would have lost if not for mercy of God and when I thought about how he would have feigned innocence if he wasn't caught and would have wasted my life savings feeding his betting addiction,I trashed the feels.

He was handed over to the police which was where he narrated his tactics.
It took like forever before Sporty bet could refund my money tho, I have even almost lost interest. I just kept bombarding their email with a reminder.

Share your own experience.

Kalubolt:
Good day Nairalanders, I don't know how to place the subject of what transpire ystday but just read and share your thoughts.
I am a driver working with one of the e-hailing companies (BOLT). Ystday by 7pm I got a request from Bera estate by Chevron drive to one hotel close to Skymall at Sangotedo. When I got to the pick up zone it was a guy and his babe. They look so young so I didn't know they were married at first.
Before picking them I was playing a Phil Collins track (You'll be here in my heart).
.
When they boarded, the guy said I should change the song to something more upbeat which I did. When we got to Mega Chicken opposite Askamaya Hotel, there was a heavy traffic as usual that comes all the way from Ajah Bridge so we were moving slowly. Before we got to VGC traffic light, hubby's phone rang and he picked it. After the normal hello he asked who's on the line? And the caller answered it's me Aisha cus I got to know when he said whose Aisha. It seems Aisha at the other end was telling him why are you pretending not to know my voice bcus I called with unknown number after you refused picking my lines. Hubby was adamant, pls I don't know you and I am with my wife and he cut the call.
.
By this time I have reduced the volume of my radio, so wifey was asking him who's that? He said he doesn't know who she was. Wifey said are you sure and he said yes. Not long after the number called again and hubby picked and said pls leave me alone I don't know you.
As Wifey wanted to collect the phone from him, hubby cut the call. Wifey was somehow angry but kept her cool. Not long after again same number called again, but before hubby could say anything Wifey collected the phone from him and picked the call. And then put it on speaker for both hubby and me to hear.
.
She then calmly said hello, I am the wife of the person you are trying to call how may I help you. Aisha too calmly said, pls don't be offended give the phone to the owner he's the one I want to speak to. With this, Wifey provoke and started shouting at her. Who the hell are you to tell me who you want to talk to? All this while hubby moved a bit to my side and was trying to explain to me: driver see me see wahala o, person say him no know you and you dey insist. Which kind problem be this. I didn't say any word to whatever he was saying cus he has distracted me from hearing the main gist between his wife and Aisha.
And by this time Wifey has off the loudspeaker and was now listening to the other caller carefully and silently. After some minutes of careful listening she cuts the call and burst into tears. Hubby tried to get close to her and ask what's wrong, she shouted don't touch me. After some more sobbing, she voiced out: Andrew (not real name) why, Andrew why are you doing this to me? We are barely 2 months into our marriage and you have started cheating on me. Andrew retorted back, honey what are you saying? I don't know her, don't believe whatever she's saying, that's a home wrecker.
.
Wifey replied back while sobbing, you don't know her but she knows your name and your best friend's name you use to hang out with. And you guys even hang out with her and friends just last week, Andrew why, why?
Hubby started explaining that doesn't know her, maybe it was one of the girls my friend use to carry along when we hang out. Wifey said she has heard enough and he should just let her be for the time being. With that Wifey place her head at the side glass of where she was sitting and continued sobbing slowly.
Hubby now confused and don't know what next to do or say just sat bewildered, I was watching them both from my inner mirror. After about 5 min total silence and us approaching Ajah Bridge, hubby came close to my ears and told me to look for that Phil Collins song I played earlier when I came to pick them. I nodded and proceeded to look for the track on my Playlist and then click it.
.
As the song was playing, to my surprise hubby started singing along the song to Wifey in an Indian movie style hahahaha. What got me laughing inside myself more was when he sang the part in the song:
Don't listen to them
Cus what do they know
We need each other
To have to hold. Hahahaha hahaha, guys honestly I almost burst out laughing here.
While the song was about to end, I have already set another track by Celine Dion and R. Kelly (I am your angel). Immediately Phil Collins ended I click that one. Once again hubby sang along and by this time Wifey has stopped sobbing. The next thing I saw was a tap in the head and when I looked back, hubby gave me a thumps up signal. Meaning my head dey there hahahaha. Another thing that amused me was that hubby knows those old school blues words for words, lyrics for lyrics. And me kukuma get them in quantum.
.
Before that one ended, I slot in Toni Braxton (Breathe Again). With this one, hubby yell softly wow! As I turned back to look at him, Wifey is already lying on his chest while hubby held her gently. This Toni Braxton was the one that kill it the most, when hubby sang the part: I will never breath again without you. Wifey now crying softly again while lying on his chest muttered some words: you know I love you, while do you want to break my? Hubby rubbed her face to her hair and said you know I won't do such. After Toni Braxton I put some other numerous love songs that got them in the mood. As we were almost getting to their destination which is hotel, Hubby told me to give him my account details. I gave him and he said when he ordered the ride, the price was #2300-#2600 so he sent me 3k and said even with the hold up it won't be more than that, but if it's more than that then he will send me another money. Within seconds I got the 3k alert. We got to the hotel parking lots and I ended the trip and it reads #2500. I brought out #500 to give him and he said I should keep it, that he loves my ride and the songs I played for them, I just smiled and say thank you.
.
They came down and headed to the hotel lobby, I was just looking at them shaking my head and smiling when all of a sudden Wifey turned back and ran to where I was still parked telling hubby she forgot something. As she came, open the door and pretended to be looking for something she handed 1k note to me and told me thank you for everything, before I could say anything she just said bye and left. Me I started my car still smiling and I left, lolz what a way to end the day.
See as I take style turn relationship healer hahahaha.......

thesicilian:
Just felt like dropping some very hard truths about life in general. We may not like or agree with them, but that's just the way it is.

1. Many people will never be wealthy no matter how hard they work.

2. People around you generally want you to be successful, just not better than them

3. There's no purpose in life. We are the ones to create purpose for ourselves.

4. Planning too much and overthinking can in most cases be a recipe for failure.

5. You are not irreplaceable. No one is.

6. Salutation is not love.

7. Money, love and relationships will definitely make you happier, but most of your happiness and peace will always have to come from within you.

8. Most people only keep you around because of what they can get from you. As soon as you loose that "usefulness", they'll disappear from your life.

9. It is hard for a total stranger to hurt you. Most of your struggles in life will come from the actions of close friends and family

10. Regret is a waste of time, learn and move on.

11. Perfection does not exist.

12. Life's unfair. It's been like that from the beginning and will remain so till the end. You just have to learn to deal with it.
