of course it does have problems. But remember i said majority of towns and cities where mtn is reliable. MTN is reliable in majority of towns and cities. there would definitely be places where they are not reliable. MTN beats glo and airtel in having majority of towns and cities where it is more reliable.

edoairways:
But MTN Nigeria still experience those problems you mentioned. Infact, the town I have toured are experiencing this

Lol see history. From a man's perspective; men want good girls, that are freaks in bed. Shikena!!

PrimadonnaO:
This good girl/bad girl narrative is being given too much attention. Today it's Lilo saying men only go for bad girls. This is someone who's an influencer.

I worry that young undiscerning good girls will start trying to become bitches...

Dear young girl, don't become a bitch. Bitches are available to every Tom, Dick and Harry, but that shouldn't be you. This is what I know works, and makes a young woman balanced;

1. Be approachable but not available to everyone.

2. Have standards but don't be unreasonable.

3 Be conscious of your worth but don't think too highly of yourself.

4. In a relationship, you'll have to make compromises, but know what compromises are worth making.

5. Don't stress people for fun because you think it makes you more desirable - hard-to-get syndrome.

6. Being rude isn't classy or admirable. Be civil and sensitive in how you communicate with people, whether or not they're chyking you.

7. Don't make everything about you. Your chyker/significant other has needs, feelings and preferences, too. Stop expecting him to always be the one shifting grounds for you.

8. Check your feelings of entitlement.

9. Feel free to be expressive. State how you feel. Ask for what you want. There's nothing demeaning in that.

10. Understand that all men have ego. Sometimes you may need to shine his ego, but so long as he isn't unreasonable and inherently insecure.

11. Don't let any man use you to do "sarewagba" Avoid men that praise you for being a "low maintenance chic." It's a psychological tactic.

12. Don't be the babe that goes to a man's house to start sweeping full house and compound, doing his laundry, pounding yam. (I personally don't have a problem with cooking, but wisdom is profitable to direct).

13. Be strategic in how you date. Don't just date a a person because he's asking you out and texting you regularly. Do you personally like him? Does he have values that appeal to you? Does he largely check the boxes with regards to the things you want in a man?

14. Don't be too hasty to quit on people. You may let a relationship go and realise in hindsight that you could have fixed it. If the relationship is worth it, make it work, give it your best shot. Y'all will have fallouts now and again, but don't feel too important to be the bigger person. But again, wisdom is profitable to direct.

As for what people call "bad bitches" or "bad girls," I'll actually struggle to define or enumerate enough characteristics of those ones, but it certainly has something to do with having loose morals.

Feel free to add, subtract, and modify for better clarity on this matter.

a queen is a woman that is married to a king. So if she is not married how is she a queen?

bukatyne:
How far?

Are you guys married?

This is five years after

P.S.: it is key for women/ladies to learn the balancing act of a queen and a baby girl for their man

singing, "Drink water and mind your business Use that energy for yourself Here comes the man on fire"

bukatyne:
As a teacher, why didn't you probe the boy further to understand what was really going on?

His mother likes him at home doing what?

Is he abused?

You missed a chance bro.

But are they reliable? Can i get good service; calls and data in majority of towns and cities? The answer is NO. When i said there is no good alternative i meant that other networks are not as reliable as MTN. In my area for instance, i have used MTN, Glo and airtel. MTN is the best because they are reliable, unlike glo that you can wake up one morning and there is no network, unlike airtel that their network becomes slow.
i have travelled around and MTN has the best coverage, that is reliability no other network beats them on that.

edoairways:
That is not true. Airtel Nigeria is a good alternative

Your understanding of male sexuality is questionable.

bukatyne:
Women have nectar
Men have passion/strength/drive

I mean passion as per life force not only narrowed to 'sex'.

If he has been around the block, he loses the ability to be marvelled or passionate about his woman. His woman wouldn't be able to 'thrill' him. He has seen it all.

Because he is not marvelled by her, he loses the drive to impress her to make her happy. If he is impressing her, it is to massage his ego.

He can get it back if he works for it.

watchindelta:
we Nigerians always have excuses for everything! That is the problem, every Country are moving forward but Nigeria stand still and looking for excuses.

You can't compare the 2, because the business environments are different. It's not a matter of excuses. It's facts.

bukatyne:
It is your coverage area and perception

Mtn's slogan, "everywhere you" is very true. All across Nigeria and different places that I've been to, MTN has been consistent and reliable.
No other network has had the same consistency and reliability.

RastaJack:
This thread isn't surprising. Saw your comments in the "Chioma deletes all Davido's pictures on Instagram" thread. The comments there were fire and are enough to make any female (even a runsgirl) think twice.

In a few days, you'd all get over this and go back to the multiple sexual relationships you have with several men. This sudden self reflection is momentary and induced by that thread.

Save the philosophical takes. That ship has sailed. Women have become too sexually uninhibited. Men are taking advantage of the uninhibition but would remind them when this same promiscuous women turn around to demand commitment. Too late. Too late, Bukatyne.

You obviously don't know the op

Nice. But I'm afraid majority wouldn't listen. Our world has been corrupted.

bukatyne:
Disclaimer: This is Bukatyne's thread

Nectar is a sweet liquid that is secreted by the nectaries of a plant (flower) and is the chief raw material of honey. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nectar

Every girl has nectar inside of her that is supposed to ‘sweeten’ the life of the man she marries. It is the freshness of body, soul, and spirit she brings to the table in a relationship. That refreshing laughter that echoes in one’s mind after it is over.

Unfortunately, this nectar is gradually lost per sexual relationship and if not deliberately kept, is dwindled when the lady (grown girl) is ready to get married. She is no longer the sweet, warm, trusting, fresh girl anymore; she is now a woman carrying the baggage of several wrong relationships and have no nectar to offer her husband who is the right recipient of it.

She is not in tune with herself anymore and can’t choose a good man. If she unfortunately chooses a good man, she does not have that nectar to offer anymore. She has become bitter, mistrusting, and unable to provide warmth to her man (husband).

Sadly, this nectar is hard to replace once finally lost or depleted and takes very conscious effort to replenish. Unlike other qualities (I will call them ‘what qualities’ e.g. education, career/job, physical comportment, home keeping, etc.) that are tangibles and can be easily worked on, this nectar (‘who quality’) is part of your make-up or your core from birth.

Keep your nectar for your husband, it was put in you to bless him!



On a lighter note, this thread should enter the contest of one of my shorter threads yet

P.S.: A conversation with GeneralPula on another thread has given me the corresponding of nectar for men: passion/strength/drive.

bukatyne:
We did the analysis once.

It is not their quality that speaks for them (almost all networks are at par now), it is the image/ brand perception.

Okay oh. But I'm speaking from experience. MTN is the network that has given me the least trouble ever. It's the most reliable.

bukatyne:
There is GLO, Airtel and 9Mobile.

MTN studied the Nigerian society well and positioned themselves as the network for 'high class people'.

That image has been hard to dispel several years later.

Nope, they positioned themselves as the network of quality

Pharaoh4rin:
Those who blames MTN don't understand business. MTN has given us what we want: good connectivity, strong network, quality optic fibre etc and they are tapping their rewards. They're no charity organization for crying out loud! If you know the cost of running business in this country, you will not consider what your customers feels in as much as you satisfy their needs.

Well said.

watchindelta:
Nigerians always suffer for everything. Here 6k is 100gig lycamobile Italy ��

The comparison is bad. Does Italy have light problems? Do they vandalise masts in Italy?

SweetVibe:
I blame the lazy and corrupt Mike Adenuga of Globacom for the audacity of MTN.
If only Obasanjo had given that license to a more intelligent fellow and not a corrupt political front man like Mike Adenuga who couldn't even handle GLO network to stardom to check mate MTN.

I agree that Glo's complacency is giving MTN an edge.

Isn't Glo exploiting Nigerians?

AntichristXXX:
Tell your FG to go and create their service provider for Nigerians.

Because if you tell MTN to leave the country and foreign company will come as the "messiah" and eventually exploit Nigerians, perhaps even more.

MTN is able to behave like this because Nigeria has no good alternative.

Lol i like how you said, "I am telling you from a position of authority". So, it is safe to say you're expecting an in "A" that course, yes?

Rgade:
I am telling you from a position of authority
This was by far the easiest exam I wrote this semester.
Why should a civil engineering student complain about Strength of materials if no be say she no read.

Martinez39s your type of mathematics question

Rgade:

Why not? An illiterate is someone that did not go to school. It does not make the person unintelligent. When i am looking the qualities of a good wife and mother for my children, literacy is not one of the things that would be on my list. I won't eat Phd in my marriage.
If the illiterate girl embodies all that i look for in a woman for marriage, why not?

you hit the nail on the head. Peace of mind very important in this life

pansophist:
Yes of course, as far she brings peace into my life, I'm in. If you look well, there is a strong correlation between literacy and infidelity. A good example is the higher institution that transform good women to corrupted ones.

So yea, if she is young, pretty and submissive I'll choose her over the high fly PhD lawyer that argues and drags shoulder with me.

This Country is a Joke.....
After saying it's free, money is still been collected by NIN officials.
I spit on their rubbish.

Co-ask. it is because of this demand for money that I have not got my NIN. i even reported the matter through email to actu@nimc.gov.ng
i did not get a response.
I plan to get me NIN through airtel or Mtn office.

Joysticks:
NIMC said enrollment is free.Why are the staff demanding money before they enroll subscribers?

No men are slightly more than women. i used to think that women were more, until a nairalander showed me the truth.

I woke up squeezing myself on bed, and shouted "I can't get up, i can't stretch myself oo" serious shout ooo, he jumped up and was like where, how, he lifted me up and I opened my one eye and said "april fool" he said you ehrnn, and I said "happy new month" he just kissed me

Lol, i did the same to all my whatsapp contacts. The reactions were hilarious.

OROSUNBOLB:
I was shocked to receive a "wedding invite" from this young,pretty and very brilliant girl who only recently gained admission to sturdy Law at the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife. She lives with her Parents in my neighbourhood.

So many questions came to my mind all at the same time. Was she impregnated by a guy ? Why would she want to get married at such tender age of 17 ? What was her parents thinking; are they alright ? Ned Nwoko's factor ? What exactly ? What? What ?? Endless questions !

I was so disappointed in that girl that I was tempted to call her at that odd hour - 12.36 am to express how I felt. But then, something in me said I should open the card at least,to see who was the idiot that wanted to marry her at that age. Lo and behold, April fool - You've just been fooled !What a joke,what a relief especially !

I was completely caught off guard.

Amen!

adding that women are usually to blame for cases of domestic violence.

That is a fact. Research has proven that women are usually the instigators of domestic violence.

Is that what I would have done? yes. Keeping quiet only encourages such behaviour to continue in the future, and your sons would suffer for it.
The guy already stood up to the woman by refusing to obey her foolish rule. All the guy needed was back up and support, which obviously didn't come.

SOZINN:
Is that what you would have done?
Speak up for a MAN who couldn't speak for HIMSELF.
a MAN who couldn't stand up to a WOMAN

Why didn't you speak up in his defense? You saw an unjust situation against a man and you kept quiet only to come here to talk about it? Okay, you have told us, so what should we do?

Emmynator:
Something happened in my nysc CDS meetings today. Looking back its just funny.
We were to have debate and most people were chosing gender equality as topics to be debate on.
Then the CDS officer, started saying she observed that men are sitting down while ladies are standing, that its not right. So she started asking guys to stand up so the ladies could sit.
She asked one guy and the guy refused, saying he came early so he could get a seat,so he shouldn't relinquish his seat to someone who came late. That's how the CDS started hyperventilating that if he cannot abide by her rules, he should leave the cds meeting.

While many will advocate for gender equality in the debates, that scenario exposed that if there is anything unequal, its the treatment meted out on men. Ladies who should come early to get seats will come late expecting guys who came early to give sits to them. SMH.

I was annoyed by the events today, I may even stand to debate that gender equality cannot/should not be achieved.

nwaezeemmanuel:
LATE, BUT MIGHT BE WORTH READING

I have been reading more self help books specially written for men. One is Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins, the other is 12 Rules For Life by Jordan Peterson.

A crucial thing i learnt from those books that spoke to me was that as men, we should never play the victim card.

"I don't have money, curse the Nigerian government"

The quoted statement above is characteristic of a man that blames the world for his problems - he is always the victim, and refuses to move past that.

"I don't have money, what can i do to get enough of it?!"


The quoted statement above is characteristic of a man with understanding. He knows his shortcomings, accepts them and wants to grow.


As someone that has blamed the world for about everything, i can say for a fact that that mentality is self-limiting. I also very much relate to how life can be so hard that someone just has to take the bat for it, besides yourself of course.

Thing is, men with victim mentality do not only come off as weak, but also incompetent. It is a continuous mind-battle that pays off in the long run - to stop blaming, and start fixing no matter how small.


Kill that whiner, complainer, and take action. Have a blessed week.

i have 12 rules for life by Jordan Peterson, i would soon start reading it.

The red part, i made a decision years ago in 2016 to not be among those who were crying that govt is killing them. in 2016 if you guys can remember, Nigeria was neck deep in recession. No money anywhere, everywhere was dry, Buhari was killing the country. One day, I entered shoprite to buy bread, omo come and see people buying things, pushing trolley loads of goods. It was as if I entered a different country. Outside shoprite there was recession inside shoprite there was no recession.
I understood. During recession, men who are worth their onions are striving and pushing, when govt is bad, men who don't blame others are pushing, when govt put out policies that would crash the economy, men who determined are making money.
I promised myself then, that i would not blame govt for anything, I chose there and then not to be among those men that would be crying from pillar to post the wailing wailers that things are hard, that Buhari is killing them.

If other men are making it when things are hard, when Buhari is killing the country, when insecurity is everywhere, when 1$ = ₦460, why shouldn't I make it?
