Actress Jemima Osunde confronts road user for allegedly driving against traffic in Lagos
Nollywood actress Jemima Osunde has called out a road user after allegedly driving on the wrong side of the road in Lagos.
In a video shared online, the actress said the driver had left his lane to avoid traffic and entered the lane meant for motorists heading towards Lekki.
Jemima said she refused to move out of his way and blocked the vehicle until LASTMA officials arrived.
She questioned why motorists would break traffic rules simply because they were trying to avoid congestion, arguing that such behaviour contributes to the problems on Nigerian roads.
“I will not leave my lane for you when you are passing one way. I won’t do it. I don’t care if you have police in your car,” she said.
The actress added that she would rather remain in traffic or delay her plans than give way to a motorist who was allegedly breaking the law.
Arrowhead71: When they got killed....you fools will turn around and say ...they are killing civilians and women.....and those your sypathyser on Nairaland are not listening to your foolishness now
Timeline Added this feature. I love it. So I am also trying to implement a timeline feature that's both Lite and efficient. It's been hectic so far and returning a lot of errors because my native structure is topic and post but I want the timeline to be direct posts without the topic headers.. emulating the normal modern timelines... 24hrs option, pinning a place, vibes, voicenotes, etc.
Hashtagging Was syncing a lot of foreign tags. Since I am basically focusing on Nigeria, I made edits to filter mostly Nigerian trending topics. Also afford an international option.
Gaming Make experience cleaner and easy for all ports esp the Snooker. Was very hectic and took three days to fix.
Speed Make the site a bit faster for viewing experience.
Cosigns / Cosign and Quote Added this. No error so far.
chatinent: Most Android phones are built to last 4 to 6 years, but everyday usage habits often cut that lifespan in half. If you want your device to stay fast, secure, and physically intact for the long haul, stop doing these seven things:
1.Letting the battery drop to 0% or stay pinned at 100% Lithium-ion batteries experience the most chemical stress at extreme charge levels. Letting your phone drain completely before charging or leaving it plugged in while running heavy apps degrades battery health fast. Keep your charge between 20% and 80% whenever possible. Most modern Android devices have a "Protect Battery" or "Adaptive Charging" toggle in Settings to automate this.
2. Constantly swiping away recent apps Force-closing apps in the multitasking view does not save battery or speed up your phone. Modern Android keeps apps in RAM in a frozen state.
When you force-close them, the CPU has to spend extra energy and battery reloading everything from scratch the next time you open them.
3. Filling your internal storage beyond 90% Solid-state storage (UFS/eMMC) needs free space for wear leveling, background cache management, and virtual memory swap. Once storage exceeds 90% capacity, read/write speeds plummet, causing lag, app crashes, and premature drive degradation.
Keep at least 10–15% of your storage free.
4. Gaming or streaming while fast-charging in a warm room Heat is the single biggest killer of phone hardware. Fast-charging already generates heat; combining that with intensive processor workloads (like 3D gaming, navigation, or hotspotting) cooks the battery and thermal-throttles the chipset.
5. Installing "Cleaners," "RAM Boosters," and "Antivirus" apps Third-party RAM boosters and battery saver utilities are redundant bloatware. They constantly run background services, serve ads, and battle Android's built-in memory management.
6. Sideloading random APKs from unverified websites Downloading modified APKs (like "modded" games or cracked apps) bypasses Google Play Protect checks and exposes your device to background malware, crypto miners, and persistent spyware that eat resources and compromise private data.
7. Using ₦2000 bargain-bin chargers and frayed cables Low-quality chargers lack voltage regulation and surge protection. Dirty power delivery damages the charging port, degrades the power management IC, and causes overheating.
Stick to certified USB-PD chargers from reputable brands. Buy from credible stores.
Dpsychologist: Many men spend a lot of time looking for beauty, attraction, intelligence, financial compatibility, sexual chemistry and other qualities when choosing a wife. Those things matter, but there is one quality that I think deserves far more attention: kindness.
Marry a woman who is genuinely kind to you, not only when everything is going well, but especially when life becomes difficult. There will be seasons when you are broke, sick, exhausted, unemployed, confused, emotionally drained or dealing with responsibilities that you cannot explain to everyone. During those moments, you will discover the difference between someone who simply loves you when life is comfortable and someone who genuinely cares about your wellbeing.
A kind partner does not always wait until you are completely broken before offering help. She notices when something is wrong. She sees that you are struggling and asks what she can do. Sometimes she may not have much to offer, but she still tries to make things a little easier.
Marriage should not feel like a courtroom where every act of kindness requires an application.
“You didn't ask me.” “You didn't tell me.” “Is it my problem?”
Technically, a person can make these arguments, but marriage should involve enough empathy to recognise that the person beside you may sometimes need help before they know how to ask for it.
There is also a major difference between having boundaries and deliberately watching your spouse struggle just to prove a point. If your husband is going through a difficult financial period and you have the capacity to help, helping him should not become a battle of pride. If your wife is overwhelmed with responsibilities and you can take something off her plate, you should not need a formal request before doing it.
Kindness does not mean allowing yourself to be exploited. It means genuinely wanting the person you married to be okay.
Another quality men should pay attention to is discretion.
Marry someone who understands that not everything that happens inside a marriage belongs on social media.
Your spouse will eventually become vulnerable around you. You will see their failures, embarrassing moments, financial problems, family issues, insecurities and weaknesses. There will be disagreements that neither of you will handle perfectly.
Some of those things should remain private.
There is a difference between seeking help because you are experiencing abuse or dealing with a serious marital problem and deliberately turning your spouse's private struggles into entertainment for strangers.
Be very careful about marrying someone who cannot keep anything private. Today, it may be a disagreement about money. Tomorrow, it may be an argument you had at home.
Eventually, your most vulnerable moment could become a WhatsApp status, Facebook post or gossip among people who have never met you.
You need a partner who can still protect your dignity even when she is angry with you.
The same principle applies to men. Women should also look for husbands who are kind, empathetic and discreet. Marriage cannot survive on one person's kindness while the other person constantly takes advantage of it.
Beauty will eventually become familiar. Money can disappear. Attraction can fluctuate. Careers can change. Circumstances can become completely different from what you expected when you first met.
Character becomes much more important when the excitement fades and real life begins.
When you lose your job, become sick, experience financial difficulties or simply go through a season when you are not at your best, you will discover what kind of person you actually married.
You don't want someone who watches you struggle simply because you did not ask. You want someone who notices. You want someone who cares. You want someone who can say, “I can see that you are struggling. Let me help.”
Most importantly, you want someone who can help you without later using your vulnerable moment as ammunition against you.
When choosing a spouse, look beyond the person who makes your heart beat faster.
Pay attention to the person who makes you feel safe when life becomes difficult. Marry kindness. Marry empathy. Marry discretion. Marry character.
Those qualities become priceless when the beautiful and exciting parts of marriage meet real life.
CosmasNwokaforG: Like you know, Chinese government put a strong restrictions on crypto in China.
A number of companies, individuals and crypto enthusiasts in China doesn't have access to it, especially as they are in need of it to facilitate some transactions. Because of this they deploy agents to scout for USDT for which they pay 15% to have access to it.
My buyers are Chinese and I find sellers for them by earning 5% of the 15% interest they add to the actual cost.
You have to agree with me that I will take 5% while you keep the remaining 10% for each transaction completed.
Remember that you don't have to be the first to send. You only have to take a screenshot and a screen recorded video of the available USDT and send it to me.
I will forward it to my principal (the buyer). They will check if it's a real picture or video (not edited).
If confirmed as original, then you send your bank account details for wire transfer.
Once you confirm payment you then transfer the USDT.
Note that you are not the one to send me my 5% commission. The buyer pays it to me. He deducts it and sends to me.
So, if you have 10,000 USDT send, for instance. You get $11,000 upfront payment before releasing the USDT. While I get paid $500.
If you are ready for the deal, please send me the screenshot and video recording of the available USDT on your wallet.
Please, note that on-chain transfers is the only option to transfer the USDT.
Send me the screenshot and video recording to my Telegram handle
Seun: Below is the application sent in by the first winner of our Domain Name & Website Competition, Nkechi Ikegwuoha (emphases mine) Compliments of the Day,
My name is Nkechi Ikegwuoha and I am a member of the Nairaland (Job) forum. I would like to be considered or given the oppurtunity to have a domain/website with the name "Intentional Beauty" because since I started job hunting, I decided to empower myself by making ladies beads, Jewelry. I've just moved to PH and have no friends, so I feel with this, I can still continue my passion of making women's necks look beautiful by reaching out to a wider market.
I am sure I could post pictures of them and connect with potential buyers. I am also a lover of Poetry so i can express my self and give people too a chance to post their poems with also a chance for people to comment on what they see. Intentional Beauty not only means the jewelry I make but it also talks of the things within us that gives that Intentional Beauty (which is something God has intently put in all of us).
Thank you.
Some of the reasons why she's a clear winner in this competition: She has a clear and worthy vision for the website, is a rare species (female entrepreneur), can obviously express herself well, actually needs the domain and seems likely to succeed.
Congratulations, Nkechi, but you don't seem to log on to Nairaland as often as before.

Marvieduke: DNA Test Reveals Black Couple Are Biological Parents of Their Two Fair-Skinned Children
A black couple, Kweku and Abena, have reportedly found themselves at the centre of an unusual family story after their two children were born with remarkably fair skin.
According to the story, Abena works for a white man, and the children’s appearance reportedly raised questions in Kweku’s mind over the years. His doubts eventually became serious enough for him to seek a DNA test to establish whether he was truly the biological father.
The result reportedly came as a major surprise. The DNA test confirmed that Kweku is indeed the biological father of both children, despite their noticeably different skin complexion.
The reported outcome has since sparked conversations about genetics, inherited traits and how a child’s physical appearance does not always provide enough evidence to determine biological parentage.
While the story has attracted attention because of the children’s appearance, experts generally note that genetic traits can sometimes produce unexpected combinations within families.
maybe they adopt them from abroad
Same way lateef adedimeji adopt triplet from abroad also
carammel: You are not misreading anything, i have pointed it out severally how much Abi likes Araga and loyal to him, they used to be really close and they gist alot. Araga however started drifting away cos of his thing with Godessa, Abi is not having any of that and she’s slightly resentful.
What happened between them is not even enough for the outburst from Araga, he clearly had other thing in mind. Abi had to walk away because she cannot yell at him like she did with Tram.

tamtamxo: Hi everyone please is Campus France (Lagos) still accepting Livinfrance accommodation certificate? And have people been granted visa with it? Thank you
I'm new here, for those with experience on france study visa, I want to apply to private business schools for spring which is Feb/march study start date. Anyone has experience for this admission period?
I want to use my sister in the UK bank statement for POF, is that okay? It seems the pof has increased officially to around €900 per month as of august, can someone confirm from experience?
What has been the story regarding visa success rates?
Lastly, how long does it take canpus france to respond after submission of successful admission from your school? I would like to apply for my visa in Jan 2nd week.
awesomeJ: It was an experiment. 10k is too lean a position to "cash out"
10890 grew to 11787 despite one very big loss though.
I'm considering opening a position on today's inflation numbers based on Coronation's forecast.
That's the difference between trading and gambling - Your bets have basis.
You also hedge with other positions should your call go south. Beginners would go all in chasing maximum gains, they often end up with maximum losses 😁
If I can sustain a 20% gain at the end of 1 week, I will judge this experiment as showing viability.
Sunbellar: Good evening NL I joined this group from Facebook. They said they trade foreign stocks in US with good returns. They call very huge amounts of funds for investment with huge returns. See the attached whatsapp group Please how genuine are they:
