My first salary I was 18 and a virgin. There was a brothel near my office with solid girls. They also sold beer there. I went to the brothel to drink beer.
I went again the second day
And the third day
Till I exhausted my salary

And resumed when I was paid again.
Their beer dey very cold

Rip Sir Robert Mugabe .

He wont be easily forgotten in Africa.. He may be notorious but he was full of brains and smart words

Dave0116:
Great..... I wish this matter will be followed up and hammer all south African company with extremely high tariffs and exceptionally high vat, thereby making business extremely uncomfortable for them until nigerian investors will all pull of their companies and they'll finally have no other choice than leaving for Good.... We can do without them but they can't do without us.

I was in court that day...the guy was an okada man who upon being bored, decided to perform some stunts with his old Bajaj Motorcycle


He could not even raise the 3k fine immediately sef.....he had to send for his Village Head and some family members to raise the money


It was amusing and depressing at the same time

Honestly, i is a very tough one. It is always convenient for guys to talk about the need to go for good behaviour at the expense of sexual attraction but in reality, it is a difficult pill to swallow.

This reminds me of the story of the man with three girlfriends who tried to choose one to marry.

There was a man who had 3 girlfriends, but he did not know which one to marry. So he decided to give each 1 $5000 and see how each of them spent it.

The first 1 went out and got a total makeover with the money. She got new clothes, a new hairdo, manicure, pedicure, the works, and tells the man, "I spent the money so I could look pretty for you because I love you so much."

The 2nd one went out and bought new golf clubs, a Dvd player, a television, and a stereo and gave them to the man. She said, "I bought these gifts for you with the money because I love you so much."

The 3rd one takes the $5000 and invests it in the stock market, doubles her investment, returns the $5000 to the man and reinvests the rest. She says, "I am investing the rest of the money for our future because I love you so much."

The man thought hard about how each of the women spent the money. Finally, being a man he decided to marry the one with the biggest tits.

This is a pointer that men are always attracted to their sexual preference regardless.

You don't have to invent something to win the Nobel Prize. Einstein did not invent a thing, all he did was think hard and have someone else do the math. And the only infrastructure he needed was his brain, a pad of paper and some light.

OTayobami:
Lolzzz.... If i jus see this woman, i go just remember Nairamarley....kai! That guy too get bad mouth!

Venerable612:
Is it just me? There are also Houses (place of residence) where people, including children, live, and sleep, every day!

Is that not more dangerous? It is less likely that people will be in church when any Hazard occurs than for people not to be at home in any or al of those houses to the right and left of the Church.

Bottom line, this shouldnt be about the church! Ifs about all the building currently situate under a high tension!

He exaggerated, but he made some valid points.

[may contain lots of typos...]

Here they come with the false equivalency again!

Can we do some real comparison with data? First question, lets establish some baseline...who is an average Nigerian and how much does that individual earn, what industry does he or she works in, then use that data and march likes-for-likes with an average American.

E.g. Is that individual a graduate civil servant on grade 08 in Nigeria, whose income is strictly from his salary, no bribe, kickbacks, no government diversions, etc; then compare that same individual base on education, level of experience, years in civil service to a similar individual working in America civil service either local, state or federal...Are you saying that Nigerian living strictly on his salary with no other dishonest income source is better than the average America? You be the Judge, use google and do computation of their earnings, etc and compare.

Sometimes, we make the mistake of comparing celebrates and entertainers in Nigeria with professional Americans who are not celebrates or entertainers. If you want to compare A-list comedians in Nigeria like I-Go-Dey and their success within the Nigeria context, try to use A-list comedians in the USA, e.g. Chris Rock....or if you want to compare Davido in Nigeria, try use USA examples like 50 cents.

Now brings the point about debts, money, riches, etc....What you fail to understand is that, 'money' is a fiat currency, it is useless without the value global economy attached to it. The America economy is built on credit system, without this credit system, the economy and it's value will crumble over night.

Lets take a simple example of buying a car...does that your average Nigeria own car? Lets assume he does not own a car, lets start deducting from his/she salary and save up money for him/her to buy a car..lets say that car is a Toyota Camry 2018, with a price tag of $23,000.00 (N8,165,000.00)...how many years on monthly savings will it take person to say N8b? Level -8 civil servants in Nigeria makes on average about N980,000/PA....even if this individual is able to save 50% of his/her salary towards this Car, it will take them 16 years to afford the car..if they save 100% of their salary, that is about 9 years! Add 3.5% yearly inflation to that money, plus the fact that in 9 years time, a similar Toyota camry be above $23,000.00...Compare that, to a similarly situated average America graduate, who walks into the car dealer, sign a five years loan and makes car payments for five years. This average America gets that car today, the Nigeria will wait 9-16 years, and will start using that car to improve his standard of living, business, etc and will pay off the Car in five years free and clear why his Nigerian counterpart still trying to save money to buy the same car....my guest is, in maybe in 10 tens after owning the car free and clear for 5 years, he will sell it out and it will be shipped as tokunbo to Nigeria and be sold to his Nigeria counterpart.

Use that same example above and ditto it for owing a house, etc.....You have to use the credit system to work for you. This is the singular reason the Average Chinese foolishly save money and live in penury and the wise America will come and borrow that money and live a comfortable high standard of living....since this is fiat currency, its value is useless and often is controlled by the America system.

Pr0cter:
I actually agree with the OP. Take for example cars. Most Nigerian's make full payments for the big cars they use unlike the Americans that pay on installment probably on loan

ogododo:
No talk like that
