Politics › Re: Governor Danbaba Suntai Of Taraba State Crashes Private Jet by ayandee: 8:21am On Oct 26, 2012

Things have changed indeed. That's why the governor finds solace in the acquisition of jets and choppers cos he knows the poor state of the roads. That's why he had to learn how to fly by all means to be able to cover even the shortest distance. As a matter of fact, my neighbour who just concluded her service in Taraba (Kurunmi to be precise) this year also complained of lack of infrastructure. Stop shielding corrupt people.

kutchs: Will you stop posting rubbish on this thread. Which year did you serve in Taraba and when was the last time you were there? Why dont you come back to the state and see how things have changed courtesy of Danbaba. I will list his achievements if you will be humble enough to accept, mind you I am not from the state.

What empathy would one show for a thiefing governor? I served in Taraba state and i can confirm to you that it's a very poor state. The level of poverty there is startling. The roads are terrible. You can imagine driving nine hours within a state on a trip that shouldn't take 4hrs cos of bad road. Only 3 local govt areas had electricity- Takum, some parts of Donga and Wukari. The rest had no poles meaning no hope of electricity in sight. No portable drinking water except for sachet water 'imported' from neighbouring states. We would wake up at 4am and walk miles to get water for laundry. The few schools available lacked teachers. Even Jalingo the capital has no infrastructure except for the bank buildings adorning it. I can go on and on.

gbadexy: Most people here are bitter o!
Nigerians are generally callous. Did anybody know for certain that he bought the plane after being a governor? Does someone just go for training in aviation if not a pilot or has interest in flying? So did he go for training in nigeria and america after being governor?
I read a post from a dimwit saying RIP to sponsor of boko haram not knowing the governor is a christian!
The total lack of empathy here is really frightening. Am sure most people commenting here haven't been to taraba or knows anything about the state to judge is performance.

Family › Re: Am I Extravagant With N80K And Above Monthly Spending? by ayandee: 9:11am On Oct 18, 2012

Op, I think your wife is prudent considering where u live. I'm a mother of one. I live on the mainland and spend an average of 60k on household expenses. It used to be a bit more until my son stopped wearing diapers. Like someone advised, buy your food and household items in bulk. Avoid insecticides like raid, mortein etc. They are expensive. Use sniper. It's cheaper and effective. Your wife may pick up a job to augment d family income but don't push her too hard.

Education › Re: World Teachers' Day: Share Your Experiences About Your Teachers by ayandee: 2:09pm On Oct 05, 2012

God bless my amiable literature teacher, Mrs. Onuorah who took it upon herself to give us private lessons in English language when she noticed our awful use of the English language in her literature classes. I also cannot forget my Government teacher, Mr.Okorie. He taught us Government without looking at the books. He was so brilliant. I remember my English teacher, Mr. Sanni. You took me to a state-wide essay competition in Igbobi College even when our school did not have a school bus.

Thanks to Mr. Oyewale, the Maths teacher who scared us all with long whips and made me skip Maths classes. How can I forget Mr. Awo---- (he had tribal marks), he made me love Mathematics just one month to the SSCE exams. He succeeded in preaching the gospel of Maths to Arts students and changed our view of the subject. I wish you had come much earlier.

My principal, Mrs. Atanda was such a loving woman. She picked well-dressed students on her way to school each morning. I was her regular passenger grin

Thanks to all of you. Your efforts paid off.

Governor's consent is not a conclusive proof of title to land. It is either you didnt do a proper search/ investigation to confirm the seller's title or the person who sold to the seller simply plans to make trouble just to get some money from you. SOLUTION: consult a lawyer.

Business › Re: Can 200,000 Naira Start A Good Business In Nigeria? by ayandee: 9:14am On Aug 31, 2012

A lot depends on what you term to be good business. I started my book retail biz last month with just 4k (i mean four thousand naira) and today i've had a turnover of about 40k (in just one month). I do it parttime cos i have a regular job. As small as it appears, i consider it an impressive start. I realise there are people like me who love books but due to their busy work schedule, they find it difficult to go to bookshops. I source for books of popular authors with interesting titles and take to them during lunch hour(thanks to amazon). The prices are a bit lower than bookshop prices as i do not pay rent. U sell more if u can give concise and interesting description of d content of d books (u need a sharp mouth and a smiling face). I also gave out a free e-book to all customers so i have their email addresses and can inform them of my new collections without going to them. This is just testing d waters. I intend to expand my customer base. Money is important but isn't all there is to starting a biz. U need to identify a need and fill it.

@poster, I would like to encourage you. My husband and I lived apart for one year. Shortly after the wedding, I got full schlorship to study abroad which was what we both longed for. Then I found out I was pregnant and that didn't stop us either. I had our baby abroad while studying. We ensured we called and mailed each other daily. Skype really helped too. I was able to secure a better job shortly after my return and I must confess to you that we've never regretted taking that decision. Between, he is a God-fearing man and loves me dearly. Being apart for a while is one of those sacrifices we sometimes have to make to move ahead.
