You are lucky to understand the need to change at your relatively young age.You cannot force someone to forgive you but you can let the person know that you have changed by living a better life and communicating with your uncle once or twice a year seeking his forgiveness and wishing him well. You need to learn a new skill or vocation.,you. should not rely on a cleaning job for ever.Think of something you really like doing ,it could be cooking,interior decoration anything you really like and then enrol on a course for it.You could become a commis chef with just some determination and hard work.From there you would have a career.Good luck to you.

These are not the poorest

Your head dey correct. Palliatives are meant for the poorest and unsalaried but people are just too thick to get that very simple idea. The poor are most likely suffering while the praise singers are getting more and more rotund

Was there really a resistance to the British from the Caliphate? When you are used to having people rule over you, its always easier to accept colonialism which is just another group of rulers, than when your society is built on freedom equality of all, and republicanism, you always going refuse to go down without a fight.

Actually there is no successful leaderless people on the planet even the Jews asked God for a king. All men are created equal but some are leaders, even the twelve apostles have Peter. There is no successful land where all the people are equal in rank. It was very easy for the British to administer the north because the apparatus were already in place, they just had to put themselves at the top. It was actually the machine gun that pacified the northerners, that was why they all ran away when the British wanted to take a photograph with them later, the camera tripod resembled a machine gun tripod. Anyway failure was inevitable for any resistance in Nigeria because British firepower was immense and they would have defeated even a combined north and southern Nigerian army in days not even weeks. It was like a lion fighting a cat. Can you fight a canon with a Dane gun and cutlass. Even the coastal dwelling yorubas like the egbas and ijebus with more sophisticated guns would have been heavily defeated in hours.

Igboid:
Your teacher must be half baked if he didn't teach you about Aro-Anglo war that raged on for year and the Ekumeku resistance. There are no stronger resistance in the entire Nigeria than those two.

Keep deceiving yourself, you need a national centralized army and therefore a king and a general to resist effectively. I'm Yoruba but can tell you that the most effective stubbornly military campaign against the British came from the north. You cannot have military weight without centralized leadership

Lol, Aba women's riot, I mean war all over again. I've read Nigerian history extensively for more than forty years and never came across any mention of well organized military effort against the British from ibos. In fact organized military campaigns against the British came from the north but they succumbed to the machine gun. The yorubas were too preoccupied with fighting themselves and did not field a United army so the town's like ijebus that confronted the British were defeated quickly. History is too important to be messed with. The problem is that ibos at the time lacked central leadership so there was no King and a United national army so any opposition to the British would have come from area boys and hotheads in the town's. You cannot call that a war.

Why do we kill people who kill people to show them that killing people is wrong.

SHUT UP

There is limited possibility that someone will test -ve only to test +be again unless the medical expert didn't checked him up well b4 confirming him/her free from such ailment. All I know is that 60-80% of Nigerians can survive ds virus without much work bn done on them as bn seen in Europe

You are wrong, statistically blacks are more likely to die of corvid 19 than whites as blacks are more predisposed to cardiovascular disorders ,this thing cannot be played with unless you want Nigeria to be a huge burial ground

Ubykcee:
All these people that are being arrested and sent to isolation center, I hope there are being given food. Let them not suffer for hunger there ooooo

By giving them food, you encourage breaking of the law and you put Nigerians lifes in danger. They should be given as little food as possible.

SLAP44:
Abia state has been in the forefront of states increasing local manufacturing capabilities while the other parts of the country falters.

We praise the sterling leadership qualities of their leaders, especially Okezie Ikpeazu.

People may criticise you but your works are showing to ashame them all.

There is no need for such blatant ass licking

An official refurbished phone is better than a UK used one as long as the price reflects it's history. You guys should stop confusing yourselves. In theory a refurbished phone from the company should perform as a brand new one while the UK used is well... used. The op should not buy a G4 though. Save your money for a G6.

OgogoroFreak:
God punish Empathy.

Is there anything new he expected to know by creating this thread? It's always the same cycle - A nairalander scam another, they create thread and alot of people drop advices and how to catch the thief but they always never get caught or recover their money. Then the thread die a natural death.

Also, it feels good to think people like qualityGod would live a miserable life but the sad reality/bitter truth is that he might be leaving a fantastic life and even go on to achieve all his dreams. Life is not a movie, you know?

You can't be more wrong. Karma exists hundred percent and if you don't suffer the consequences of your crimes your descendants will. You don't get away with anything.

People can be very ignorant, there are asymptomatic victims of the disease

Nigerians and their silly penchant for making up half baked stories and believing them. So a man died because of lack of food for three days. Did you even study biology in school at all. What about people dry fasting. You die for lack of water first before you die of lack of food. I have gone three days without eating before to address a stomach complaint. However I do believe Muslims should learn to love their neighbors better.

Trailblazer1:
The answer is simple



It is because the safety measures were not written in the Quran

They were. The book says people should stay clear of any town with a pandemic disease and movement in and out should be prohibited. Many northerners are just plain stubbornly ignorant

AgroTrade:
It isn't a new trend at the moment.

Over 30 million Americans have lost their jobs already.

It is a trying time for individuals and organizations all over the world.

That you still have your job till date is a privilege. Everything can change in a moment. Be grateful

Think

Arrewa:
bloody bigot!! The educated Lagos is about to hit 1k

Bigotry will never allow you reason well! MN

Thank God we're in this together!! Una go soon get sense!

Lol. Are you even reasoning at all Lagos has a lot of international travellers ,expatriates and international seaport so Corona virus should be expected there but Kano on the other hand has a lot of infections due to idiocy and not because of international exposute. Kano should have been a low risk area while lagos, Abuja and ogun state should be classified as high risk. Education appears to be important

Lol. Nigerian health workers are worse than mercenaries. They are rude greedy callous and cowardly.

Check your blood pressure and get treatment ASAP

odinga1of:
That's Ibadan ?

No. Abeokuta.

Go to a general hospital and the doctor there will refer you to a government specialist hospital nearest to you. My cousin has the same condition and gets the drugs almost free from the hospital The ailment subsides when he takes the drugs diligently

grim33:
Please if anyone knows how to get relief from toothache please help me...

Homemade remedies please.... I’m in serious pains.

Thank you and God bless you in advance....

It's better you get to a dentist as soon as possible

sapientia:
My most major concern is that most Nigerians believe there is nothing like covid 19.

I have changed my view of some people.

Have seen some things in personal chats that made me to wonder if I was wrong about someone being literate.

But I have come to conclusion that covid 19 came with entirely new style which can make it difficult for some brains to assimilate information about it.

While we all pray that covid 19 will not kill plenty Nigerians, if it ever does.

Its us that will enter lockdown on our own.

Africa do not rake kindly to death ooo.

You are right, I also realized that education does not subdue ignorance in some cases. Many Nigerians still believe that there's no COVID 19 in Nigeria

Gather here if you just checked your toes.

thiagoteres:
My initial message was for health workers and if you are one it won't be difficult for you to understand.
If you have never worked as a hcw in a public hospital, it would be nearly impossible for you to see things from their perspective. So listen objectively when they cry out and don't let social media rants cloud your judgement. Alternatively, volunteer for a month in any government hospital close to you ,then come back and share your experience.
Can't believe u think 5k is proportionate pay for level of risk hcw get exposed to even before this pandemic?
Health care delivery is a service that is paid for and no amount of emotional blackmail can change that. You are free to render your service free and pay your bills with thank you(That's if u even get one sef)
Is it ok to ask a delivery person to drive a faulty vehicle, or a construction engineer to work without personal protection, or any office worker to work in a burning building ?
Why must it be fine for hcw to work without basic protection ?
If you don't value their lives , I am sure their loved ones want them back home alive.

Dearth of PPE has not prevented British nurses and doctors from treating COVID 19 patients, they complain about it but roll up their sleeves and do their jobs of ameliorating human suffering. I don't need to work in an hospital to know that Nigerians are generally wicked, callous and uncaring, medical personnel included. A bad worker would always blame equipment. There are some good Nigerian health workers, doctor Philip Dzuana mentioned in the original post was likely one. Every segment of human economic activity with it's attendant hazards satisfies a physical or mental need . A driver is not paid disproportionately in Nigeria but the blackmailing health care workers are, even though drivers also risk death in their jobs. I lived in Britain for more than twenty years so I'm no stranger to volunteer work and should the need arise I would gladly volunteer in Abeokuta. However all sectors on the Nigerian landscape are bad.

thiagoteres:
They can not be pleased no matter how much u try. Some people enjoy talking blindly . Just amuse yourself with their folly and do your job.
Hypocrites that have never read a letter of ethics would be mentioning Hippocratic oath.
Greedy people that make a living out of illegalities want to shame those making an honest living out of saving lives.
What have the noise makers done for the loved ones of health workers that have suffer preventable untimely death?
God bless all health workers out there.Protect yourself even if your employer won't.

What are you going on about, which how much they try are you talking about . Are you even Nigerian and on the ground. The fact of the matter is in Nigeria people are doing jobs not suited to them because of money and lack of job opportunities. You find people who are apathetic to injustice doing police work, unpatriotic soldering and medical staff unsympathetic to human suffering. The medics here are always on strike for the most trivial of reasons risking people's lives despite being disproportionately paid more than the other workers. They should be pruned to allow better suited people in to do the job. If you want undue praises then hire praise singers.

Almost all health workers are in it for the money in Nigeria and not to serve mankind. Most Nigerians simply don't have good experiences with Nigerian public health workers. It's like inviting good comments about the Nigerian police, it will be extremely scanty because although a few good Nigerian policemen exists most are bad. And yes I think they should leave the job so that better humans could be recruited.

What a sad loss, yet many idiots supported the nigerian doctors who object to the Chinese doctors coming to the country, claiming they can handle things on their own. Pride comes before a fall

u11ae1013:
Please let them send those Chinese doctors back, they are angels of death

Secondly, I heard aisha buhari will be frying akara from dusk till dawn

So you really think nigerian doctors will stay around when the virus really hits. You make me laugh, they don't want the Chinese doctors here out of pride but they will go AWOL when the victims need them. Mark my words carefully.

Kenneth4u205:
The prophecy is 100% correct.he even mention that scientists will name the sickness COVID.

And to those asking for solution.he already gave the solution then.for us to pray against it .But me and your were busy fornicating and clubbing until the sickness he saw manifested physically.

Really, lying prats. I don't know what you people gain from all these assertions but it degrades Christianity

festacman:
Your ignorance is not funny.

Lol, you didn't make any sense just like those claiming 5g caused Corona virus. Simply put Nigeria is an exceptionally corrupt nation with unpatriotic citizens so they cannot defend their country while the chadians are less corrupt and more patriotic so they are always going to cause Boko Haram problems while the average Nigerian soldier who feels cheated everyday would not do his best in battle. History is littered with examples. Read up about the fall of the roman empire. Soldiers don't fight well for corrupt regimes but give up their lives for good ones, America and Britain are examples circa 1939 to1945.Operation Barbarossa was repelled by the Russians at great cost because of their love for their motherland. No matter how you spin it ,the chadians president loves his people while our leaders love thieving.

festacman:
From day one, loudmouth narcissistic drama king Idriss Derby has always been full of his ego. He has never fully fought alongside any other countries' army. He would go alone, suffer losses and whine like a baby. In his reckoning, it is only Chadian soldiers that can effectively defend both Lake Chad area and Sahel Region while other countries' soldiers are mere 'Boys Scout groups'. SMH

Idriss Deby showed many pictures of the battle including cache of weapons seized and where . Why hasn't he shown the video or pictures of corpses of the one thousand terrorists killed and littered around?

Idriss Derby can only bamboozle emotional Nigerians who are searching for new deity to adulate. The reality remains constant: He tolerated and harboured terrorists camps on Chadian soil against Nigeria before they killed 90 Chadian soldiers.

Your joke is not funny
