Being married and with the ring on commands respect from others in the way they attend, address and treats you among others.
No wonder the Bible says he who finds a wife has found a good thing and obtain favour from the Lord. If the Lord has flavoured, who is man that can't favour you.

Religion / Re: How Kayode Badru Died (Graphic Photos) by BananaPeel(m): 1:17pm On May 09, 2021
ahiboilandgas:
i don't understand or want to understand your write up .Religion has caused so much deaths since it invention from crusader to jihadist it has been killing up killings.
Exactly, that's the point. Even you isn't left out. You are a very religious person but you don't know that. People confuse religion for Christianity or any other faith. The Pharisees were very religious and didn't understand who Christ was and were waiting for the Messiah. He was killed, his disciples were killed and people still persecute Christian who preach today.
Religion will kill people and say that blasphemed but that isn't the true nature of Christ life that we follow.
Moslems will kill in the name of fighting for Mohammed, that's all religion, and not the way the only true God wants us to worship.
It's the same religious tool the govt of the day is using to hoist themselves on us.
Some little kids just come to nairaland and say stuff out of ignorance.
Religion / Re: Satan Lied When He Claimed The Kingdoms Of The World Were His by BananaPeel(m): 1:01pm On May 09, 2021
petra1:


Well Let me still Answer you even though my earlier post is self explanatory.

God gave the dominion of the earth to Adam .

Genesis 1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Psalms 115:16
The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's:
but the earth hath he given to the children of men.


As I said earlier man's fall gave Satan the dominion to be custodian of Adamic authority. And prince of the world

John 14:30
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

2 Corinthians 4:4
Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. . . .

Luke 4:6
And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it


How was it delivered. Because Adam submitted himself to the devil. And he became his master.

Romans 6:16
Are you not conscious that you are the servants of him to whom you give yourselves to do his desire? if to sin, the end being death, or if to do the desire of God, the end being righteousness.
Satan only have rulership over those who don't know who they are in Christ Jesus. Jesus Christ took everything from Satan in the Resurrection.
2Cor4.4 tells us about the forces that doesn't want the children of disobedient to be saved because whomever you yield your members to becomes your master. If you are yielded to Christ,He becomes your master and Satan has no hold on you.
The Bible also refer to us as gods and children of the Most High.
Every believer who knows his rights in redemption is far above all the whiles and caprices of the devil.
We are to rule here on the earth as Kings and Priests. We are to rule in the midst of our enemies, the devil inclusive, as Kings and Priests.

ahiboilandgas:
How can a educated man allow a combustible liquid poured over his body and bring lighted candles near .it like roasting yourself. Religion has caused too much harm in Africa.
O yes, religion has caused too much problem but thank God not the Christian life; the life of Christ.
Jesus warned the Pharisees and Sadducees; hypocrites; who love religion but don't know the true nature of God. Being religious doesn't automatically qualify one as a true Christian. Religion is just activity.
Health / Re: Help! My Younger Brother Is Going Mad by BananaPeel(m): 3:08pm On May 08, 2021
Mrskillz1:
I am from a family of three. I have two brothers. One older and the other younger than me so I'm the only girl in my family.

I grew up seeing my Mom mad.
By my teen age, I got admission into Nnamdi Azikiwe University alongside my elder brother who was to study Engineering. By the time I was in my finals, my brother was getting ready for IT. One day, his roommate sent for me, he said they couldn't sleep the night before because my brother was talking to himself. Before we knew what was happening, my brother was getting violent and so we took him home and he never got back to finish school.
I proceeded with my education and finished. Went for NYSC. While serving the nation, My Mom died. When I got home, she'd been buried.
But my brother was still mad.

I later got job, took my brother to a Psychiatric hospital and the doctor after examining him said he is Schizophrenic. He was asked to stay in the hospital.
I paid. He then stayed there for one month. When I came to visit him, he pleaded with me to take him home that he didn't like it there.

So I took him home. Every month, I buy drugs for him and he gets injected. He usually puts up a fight but with the help of my younger brother, neighbors and a certain nurse, he receives the injection, forcefully and against his will.
Often times, he pleads with me not to inject him, the very time I obliged him, he scattered things, didn't allow the neighborhood sleep, talked throughout some nights and wouldn't eat sometimes. He looked really sick then but with the injection, one will hardly know he's not normal.
I told him that I won't let him miss his injection ever again.

Now, on Monday, my younger brother woke up and was unusually quiet. He normally wakes up and begins to play music with his phone or he will turn to football channel and watch until I leave for work. But I didn't go to work on Monday and I noticed he was quiet, then I asked him why he's quiet. He didn't respond. After some hours, I asked my Dad if he feels he's okay, My Dad said that he wants to be quiet and that I should let him be.

Then, that night, around 4am, my brother began to talk. He was shouting and some of the things he said were not coherent. He talked out of point. I and my Dad, with my elder brother surrounded him and I couldn't help crying when my Dad was cautioning him to keep quiet and he refused.
Neighbours thought it was my elder brother's voice they'd heard that night but by the time they heard in the morning that it was my younger brother, they visited my Dad in the evening. By then, my brother was still talking and even burnt his clothes yesterday.
My Dad got a few guys to chain him because he was violent yesterday when I left the house.
I know the problem is spiritual. I have prayed, fasted for my elder brother and now this!
I'm so unhappy.

Can someone suggest a place I can take my two brothers to so they can be cured, please.
There's nothing too hard for Jesus Christ to do if you will believe.
Blessed is she that believeth for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her.
Quickly look for the nearest Winners'Chapel and let them have Bishop David Oyedepo's mantle laid on him. The God of the liberation mandate will rescue him from the forces of destruction.
Continue in the faith and your entire family shall be rescued from destruction.
NB: No unbeliever should quote me to discourage her.
Jesus is Lord.

Over the years Infinix has produced affordable quality phones. Now this begs the question is infinix not doing the greater good? Xiaomi phones have a lot of problems, no spare parts and are very expensive. But infinix phones are cheap , have no issues and the spare parts are everywhere. The discussion is open...
I'm using Redmi 8 since Dec. 2019. Each time I remove the pouch it feels new and with upgrade to MIUI 12, the phone still dey try. It doesn't hang also. I feel infinix camera dey loose quality as the phone ages.

Career / Re: Parents Who Want You To Study Medicine Love You For Real Do It ! by BananaPeel(m): 6:06pm On Apr 29, 2021
33bandit:
sequel to this thread , https://www.nairaland.com/6525528/mum-insists-medicine-nothing

....I've had a similar encounter which im inundated to share .
I grew up in a loving family tbh there wasn't a case of tyranny or blackmail ,my parents just try to give you enough reasons why you should do certain things until you run out of arguments to buttress why you don't think their discisions is or was rather the right one

anyways I had passion for technical drawing during the course of secondary school ,I was one of the best students in that art form ,however my first jamb which I registered and had applied architecture was a disaster, although I could remember vividly we was in a friendly competition as to who would secure admission first coupled with the pressure of writing waec and neco

I think I discovered nairaland during that time because we scout the internet throughout the night with our illegal phones looking for who would send the waec expo ,shit was wild tbh

long story short after being shown the realities of the job market in nigeria and using alot of relatives as examples loooool ..I finally settled for medicine..im an average student ,that is to say I've to work hard befor I get good grades ...,not naturally high IQ for those who care about the neurological aspect ,thats what it is

wrote jamb 5 times and now I'm here ..did I regret studying med? ..never did, there are challenges but whatever it is ,it would be worth it .

the job market for medical sci graduate is wide and one does not have to be at the hospital everyday to have that fulfilment ,some of my seniors are now teachers in the dept .
thing is medicine just propels you to a second class citizen immediately you graduate
as far as ones parents would fully support them to study medicine I don't see reasons why they should refuse that offer ,shit is expensive anyway .

whatever you do in nigeria ..passion is never enough ,just do what works ,this isn't anyway deride people who have followed their passion and made it

there's always a percentage lads .

NB I didnt edit this ,time no dey!
.
So true, cos some of us didn't try harder to get a high Jamb subsequently and settled for Chemistry due to low Jamb score, which in real sense is even harder than medicine. Not regretting though but Children should listen to parents who wants them to settle for Chemistry. In some of our cases, nobody even pushed us but we just did what we had to do.
Big ups to pushy parents.

Nairaland / General / Re: Benin Electricity Distribution Company Is Frustrating My Life by BananaPeel(m): 8:09pm On Apr 28, 2021
lordkay10:
Good day folks. It has been a turbulent period for me since BEDC installed their prepaid meter at my residence. The meter came with 100 units of electricity which the staff told me would be free of charge grin
However, when I made an attempt to top-up the units when it was running low from a vendor, I was told I have to pay for the "free" 100 units before I would be able to top up. I had no choice than to part with 11,000 naira to pay off the 'debt' and buy 5000 naira worth of units for the top-up.

I was told to proceed to the BEDC area office close to where I bought the units to obtain activation tokens being my first transaction on the meter. At the BEDC area office, the customer care agent gave me a series of code to enter on my meter when I get home for activation, and wait for another set of code from the BEDC headoffice via SMS, without which I wouldn't be able to load the top-up tokens I purchased.

After following these instructions, I waited in vain for the final code from BEDC which wasn't forthcoming. I placed several calls to their hotline with some below-par agents attending to me at different points, each with a different method of how to solve my problem. Well, I finally got a competent agent who promised to escalate my case, and wait for 24hrs to receive the code

I finally got the code the next two days but not after making series of threats to their hotline, and I was able to load my top-up tokens. But this is just the beginning grin

Almost a month passed and I would need to top-up again. This time, I opted to do it online via quickteller since my meter has been 'activated'.
I made payment but didn't get my tokens until after 24 hours. I proceeded to load the meter but I got an error message.

I proceeded to call their hotline as usual but no luck this time, my calls keep on getting rejected. I paused for a while and tried again after few hours and I was finally able to speak with agent who told me I need to fill a certain complaint form on their website, after which I would be sent another kind of token from their headoffice

I proceeded to fill the form on their website but the form wasn't submitted because "my meter number does not exist" grin
I tried to get across to the customer care agent again to notify them of the development but their hotline has been unreachable since my last call.
I proceeded to make a google search of their alternate complaint lines(if any) and I was shocked to see that the two other lines quoted on their website, each had 10 digits instead of 11, thereby making those numbers invalid.
I've been in total darkness since then, not because I didn't pay my bills, but for the inefficiency of Benin Electricity Distribution Company cry
Mods, kindly help me take this to frontpage for more views
Two options...
1. Sue them
2. By-pass the meter. I did this in my former residence when landlord and bedc were playing pranks.

Help Me Before I Make The Greatest Mistake Pls

I'm a single mother in my early thirties, my daughter is just 2year old and the father is not ready to marry me or take any responsibility on her but still hiding me and his secret wife and won't let me go but I have decided to leave becos he's no adding any value to my life n my daughter's either.

Fast forward
I met a guy online who claims he lives in the US and I discovered I like him since I've met him and now he said we should settle down and marry. I own a duplex in a choice area in Lagos, completed though still small loan I'm paying on it. I agreed to settle down with him but since I told him he can't stay in my house that he needs to get a house, he started acting funny.

The second one, I asked him to show me proof of ID or his work ID, for me to be sure he's who claimed he is, he changed it for me. I tried to let him know that I'm just trying to be careful, don't want to fall prey again but he won't listen to me. He stopped calling and when I call him, he will return my call after like 5hours.

Pls advise me, is it polite for a man to marry and come stay in a woman's house because he said he will soon travel back? This is someone I like to support to get another apartment somewhere else but I haven't told him that. He has really changed in days.

No insult pls...pls ignore rather than insult me pls.
There's nothing wrong with a man living with his wife in a house built by her. What is wrong is if the man doesn't work and a trickster like this one.
