Good evening my fellow Nairalanders....Hope y'all are currently enjoying the economic shege we've been plunged into? . Any ways, that's a story for another day....

So this morning,I woke up,hoping to kick start my daily hustle with my tricycle (popularly known as keke), only for me to get there and discover that it was having an ignition fault............Well,then I thought I could just apply the little engineering knowledge I learnt while in school on it, but all my efforts were to no avail.

A neighbor of mine who was passing by who saw how I was struggling with it approached me......He asked me what the fault was.....So after I told him........The next thing I heard him say was--"you sure say you no go carry this your keke go meet my pastor so?

Omoh,tho I tried to be calm but I was forced to reply him with a question--"That your pastor sabi repair keke?". . Immediately I asked him that question,he turned his back and walked away............

But omoh, why are Nigerians so over religious like this? Must we accrue every single problem that can easily be solved by mankind to God? The thing just tire me I swear....

Do those women say they need husbands? If no, don't give yourself headache for their sake. Most of the married ones are even plotting to become single.

Their values have changed. They don't care about marriage. Some of them don't even care about having children. They have enough money and can make upfront payment to companies that will care for them in old age.

What I worry about is the continuation of humanity.

TopNotchTrends:
Hmmmm. I watched the video which was posted by this woman (not Nigerian) and I begin to wonder if we actually practice religion for our selfish gain or for the love of God. Do not get me wrong though! Loving God can Bring peace of mind and calmness.

When a woman gets married to a man, she will say that God's will has been done. It will be her happiest day in life filled with celebrations and all that. Then when the marriage starts getting sour, it no longer becomes God's will but hell. Both parties willingly agreed to get married because their goals aligned with one another's (at least that's what marriage is supposed to be)

To the mail story,

The lady who is the reason for the post, was in a toxic relationship and endured until the man was able to sponsor her abroad (that's what she said)

Now the twist is that she started trusting God again to meet the actual right man for her, which she eventually found (an Oyinbo man) and this new man happens to be God fearing like she wanted.

We can safely say that the ex husband was not God fearing as he put her through a lot.
I am still trying to get my mind around this.

I will share pictures on this post. What are your opinions on this?

When I was still job hunting, the CEOs, the MDs, they demanded for sex.
My two bosses at NYSC
My Zonal Inspector
My Dad's friend
Senior colleagues at work
My project supervisor
My lecturer
My family doctor
My sister's boyfriend...

Some men will never reach their full potentials in life because of their abominable lust for women.

Voy:
Believe it or not women find it difficult to understand the reason why men love sex.

* If they want to help you, they will demand for sex.
* If they say they love you, they want sex.
* You mistakenly sleep over, they want sex.
* They want to borrow money from you, they want sex.
* They want to give you a job, they want sex.
* They want to give you a pass in your exams, they want sex.

First of all, you need to understand the system of men. They didn't ask for that because they didn't create themselves.

Do you know that 95% of healthy men wake up with an erection? Did they bargain for that? No!
Do you know that the penis has a mind of its own?

A man could be reading his Bible and his penis will just stand.
A man can be sleeping and wakes up with an erection.
A man could be sleeping, once you start rubbing the penis, it
stands even when he is still asleep.

Have you ever asked yourself why men are not on periods, cramps or any bad moods? That's how God created them.
A man is naturally always ready for sex. Rub a man on his head, he already thinks you want sex.
Wink at him, he's already seeing you naked.
Wave at a man walking with his wife, he will loose focus.

This is nothing spiritual. It's not about, "ln Jesus Name or Holy
Ghost Fire".

That's why real churches do not allow ladies with short dresses to sit in front, because they will confuse the Pastor.
Men did not manufacture the high libido by themselves.

We are all created in God's image. The only man that overcame the sexual urge according to the good book was Jesus Christ. Joseph's own was that, he didn't just ran away,
he fled!! Jesus is Lord and on top of that, He was very careful not to include a woman among His disciples.

So many great men have fallen because of sex. Do you think they wanted to?

Soldiers in the war front will develop the urge for sex. To show you how bad it is, so many soldiers were killed during
wars because a woman lured them inside bush.

David in the scriptures sent a woman's husband to the war front when he saw a woman washing outside. He was later
told that it is the wife of his faithful servant who he has sent to war. He took the woman and had sex with her.

Do I need to tell you about Sampson?
Solomon and other Bible characters?
It only takes the grace of God and some level of discipline and maturity to curtail this animalistic instinct.

The way the man's body reacts to the sexual urge is not the same as a woman's body reacts to it. How many great women have you heard messed up because of a dick? Few, or even none.
So next time a man misbehaves because of sex, don't see him as an animal. They are just responding to nature.

Don't be like, "I've lost the respect I had for you, "I thought you were responsible, so this was what you wanted?"

I pray you read this post with realistic understanding.
Men should also understand that it is not all erection that is meant for sex. They should learn to control their urge.

Men are wonderfully created, but
CONTROL YOURSELVES, OH YE MEN!!!

5k multipli3d by 50 persons a day.... divided by 3 thieves.
Each thief takes close to 84k a day.
84k in a day.multiplied by 25 days.thats 2m a month for each thief.
If thief doesn't get caught in 5months that's cool 10m for these thieves. Minus some other illegal fees....

One day this thieves will have fatal crash while returning home with the cursed money. I have no pity for casual thieves
Nigeria is gone.

They will never buy locally-made products. Once they become rich their taste changes.
Every little money they make, they carry it abroad to spend on vacation. The money is not circulating in the economy.
The major employer of labor in the country would rather hire foreigners instead of training their own citizens for the job.
All the juicy govt contracts are contracted to foreign companies

( WHO DOES THAT 😂)
They would rather spend dollars for local transactions than their own currency
Even the men prefer international hook-ups over Local women.
These people automatically wake up one day and think their economy won't plummet.
😂 Nigerians are jokers. Please, what were you expecting?

Nigerians deserve the present Nigeria. Please don't blame one individual. We are all accomplices.
I'm happy the association of Bureau de Change in Abuja closed down.
If you ask me, that's good news. Hopefully, we would be forced to spend our own currency and look inwards.
Or we should just cancel the Naira and start spending dollars? Good for you.

Finally, why are we still pegging naira to dollars at this point? We should just let it go seriously.
O ti bo!

Most people are just surviving. Some people earn less,and debt wan kill them.. All thanks to the rising cost of living on daily bscs

When everybody don see better shege,they will stand up to tell government enough is enough.

I realize that Nigerians enjoy the stress of spending money and making bus drivers richer because they like to be greeted morning and evening when returning from work. They will rather do a 100k work 3km far away than an 80k half kilometer.

tensazangetsu20:
To be honest even outside the country the hustle continues but the difference is you see the results of your hardwork. You can plan stuff, work towards them and actually see the results manifesting but it's a whole different scenario in Nigeria. People who are still getting married and giving birth to Nigerian born children are some of the bravest human beings on earth.

John360comng:
All facts. Nigerian Employees no matter how nice you are to them will look for a way to steal wickedly from you.

I am currently thinking of how to solve this employee issue with my small business. I just fired one Niyi who was not only plotting to steal my phone with another staff just one week after he was employed. He was bullying another employee of mine to accept the stealing idea of his scheming to ensure that fuel purchase money was stolen and even came with some gang to threaten the other employee who was yet to agree to his theft idea.

The other girl, Rachel collaborated with another employee, Moses and her boyfriend who exposed her to forge receipts and take out 100,000 per day from my small business that we are even paying loan on. They had a target of 100,000 per day.

Imagine that?!!.

This is a girl who had nothing to feed on and was sick. That we took care of and trusted. What of Emma and the other ones I can't all recollect.

Nigeria Employees are wicked and ensure that Nigeria employers will never breath. They have this wicked idea that a business you spent energy and resource on building that you should never profit from it.

The Indian mgt will be so expensive for my small business unlike yours that is big. What other idea can you suggest for small businesses that can not afford the Indian mgt thing.

ultron12345:
Depends on the perspective of the person speaking.

Employers tend not to like them, but Business owners love them.

I'll speak based on my experience with them, as a business owner.

Several years ago, I had serious difficulties managing various businesses I had set up. The staff dealt with me. Forging of invoices, theft of inventory, inflation of contracts, there's nothing they didn't do.

The Nigerian workers were out to finish me.
Like they say, "where person dey work, na there e dey chop, hence the name, workchop (workshop)".

You sack and replace them, the new ones continue from where the old ones stopped. They will even improve their techniques of stealing so as not be caught like their predecessors.

After trying so many methods to reduce all this, from utilizing tech and automating several processes, to involving relatives, it came to my realization that the only way to stop all this was to run the businesses myself, to be "on ground" always, but that wasn't possible. So I planned to start shutting them down and to focus only on one. I told a friend who was also a businessman about my challenges and plans, hoping he would be able to purchase some of the assets I was hoping to sell from the shutdown businesses. He recommended I hire indian management. I wasn't keen at first, but finally decided to try it.

To put it shortly, I eventually got an Indian manager for one of the businesses and it worked like magic. Business began to be good. Profit began to come in. For the first time, I could be away and still be confident and relaxed that my business is in good hands. Apparently, the business troubles we had been having weren't because of "bad economy", it was because of "bad workers" who were out to build houses on my head.

Today, the businesses are growing from strength to strength. All key positions are occupied by indians. If I'm starting a new business today, all key positions go to indians by default.

I have recommended the "indian solution" to so many business people, at least 5 of which have adopted it this year alone, and it has been good stories since then. Not a single one of them has regretted the decision.

The simple truth is that the average Nigerian is corrupt and is a thief. Those who have not stolen have not done so simply because of lack of opportunity.

And that's why our country is like this, after all, the leadership is a representation of the citizenry. Nigerians are a bad people and have rightly given rise to bad leaders.

Below is a post I made few years ago about this same issue.

Flets:
1. 7.5% VAT on diesel
2. Fuel subsidy removed
3. Electricity tariff hiked
4. University tuition increased to 400K+
5. Naira devalued
6. Same old politicians lined up to continue the looting

Give it 6 months and Nigerians will feel the real and stinging impact of these policies. At that time, ethnicity and religion cannot save you.
