you idiot. The standard age a child starts boarding school is 11 or 12. I started boarding school at 11 from js1, your parents couldn't afford to put you in boarding school or were senseless enough to not know the importance of boarding secondary school doesn't mean you insult parents who are wise enough to put their wards in boarding school for good training

I started my boarding journey at age 6....and and am still in the boarding journey as my 14yr old daughter (ss2) is in boarding from jss 1
All I pray for is God protection for our children when u are not available to protect them

rooney:
I can't argue that small children are not into cultism. Not quite long a primary School teacher was narrating how primary three pupils in her school were fingering their Private parts. The female ones practicing lesbianism. I won't allow my children to be a boarder. I prefer taking the pains of school runs in their secondary school than allow all those rubbish going on in boarding house to happen to my children. Any parent that misses training the children at teen age in a godly way, it will take special grace of God for that child to be well behaved child in the society.

Hmnn...my friend, if you have children, I advise u just pray and keep them in God's safe hands.. children upkeep is by grace and it's never Black and White..
U LL be shocked what children are exposed to and capable of doing right under ur nose!
Sometimes,ur Children LL rhyme songs u HV never imagine or heard of abi will u kill them for that?
As much as we make effort to put our kids in shape ,we shouldn't put blame parents of herring children too much cos social / traditional media is highly unregulated
In Nigeria...so it's so little u can do so long as the kids have access to phone and cable tv

baralatie:
I don't understand

The children are under 18 years...not liable to prosecution....so hevos suggesting their parents go through the stress and rigor of prosecution so parents will ..going forward sit up in curbing their Ward's excesses

NovesaTillie:
The parents who abandoned their 12 year old in a boarding school have failed woefully in parenting and should be arrested and charged for negligence and murder

U don't know what u are saying....if u follow the case ,u LL realise the deceased is the fifth child of that family passing through the same institution..
Granted, an unfortunate incident occurred, but it's not enough to rubbish the boarding sch setting or refer their parents as failed...
My issue with the parent of the boy was the response time ( too late) since the sch dispensary called them to come pick him up..
Also an orthopedic hospital would have been better to ease d boy's pain , stabilize him and later carry out necessary surgery instead of rubbing with balm by the dad as seen in d video..

backbencher:
Can someone explain what or why he needs over 1000 ATM cards?

I'm serious.

It's used by Bureau d change operators to get forex....
When they get to Turkey or wherever, they make withdrawal at the market rate..get the Euro, bring it back to naija and resell to u and I at black market rate.....surely make a decent profit from it especially if d said naira was looted

kefasjoshua4:
Be like Access bank is not safe same thing happened to me

Just got a call from my mum that the 15000 I sent to her last Saturday is gone!!!!
Seem access bank is having issues ooo cos my mom's card doesn't leave her wardrobe unless it's necessary

lordprogress:
I need help guys, somebody just withdrew 45000 thousand from account with Pos with out my consent on the 29th of November.
I have gone to the bank they only gave me statement and blocked the card.

I want to know if there is any way I can get the name or the account number of the culprit if I could recognise, cause my last transaction was that evening with my card around 5 pm while the 45k was removed around 11 pm that night
Note: my card was with me not that I misplaced it.

Similar thing happened to a friend who runs a POS station...he got an alert of abt 260k Oct ending not knowing where it came from...2 days ago he got debited 210000 ,he went to d bank and was told he got a loan in Oct...( Which he never applied for) ...and they debited it...So my friend , did u get an alert in October which u tink it's Sambo Dasuki running Bazaar?....cos my friends debit too is from KUDa

This country is really backward and has no plan to move forward.

How can you make a soldier who is meant to be fighting boko haram or something a traffic warden. I don’t understand.

Quote me if I’m wrong please.

That environment is very close to their cantonment ..

Toks2008:
If you are asked to do away with one of these meals, which one will it be?

A. EBA
B. RICE
C. NOODLES..

I can't joke with Eba and I love my rice with ofada sauce.

For me, noodles is out forever... What about you?

I will gladly do away all of them....and stick with veggies and wheat.....plus low fat,high calorie protein ,beans and d likes

Honeywell Group up

Wow, I must commend the current management of Flour Mills Nigeria
The company is really punching hard in the fast moving consumer goods industry (FMCG)...
From taking majority share the flour market in Nigeria to giving Nestle's Golden morn run for it's money in the cereals market with it's Golden penny Amazing Day cereals...
FMN shares should rise higher in d years to come

Karlovych:
Some of these people intentionally take these loans knowing that they have no desire nor intentions to pay back, one recently bragged here that his friend took some loans and fled to Europe to further his education and he too is planning to do the same. Sometimes you begin to wonder if wickedness originated from Nigeria.

That can only be tried with these unregulated Chinese loan sharks..
Licenced commercial Bank in Nigeria will write d embassy on ur case... U might get deported... believe me a friend got deported cos of unpaid loan to firstbank

Perez99:
Good day nairalanders.
I will make it very brief. Please I need your advice.
I've been a nairalander since 2016 but this is my first official post.

My father is a good, noble and humble man. A successful business man. He's very proud of us (his children), we're also proud of him. We're 3. I'm 29 years of age, the eldest and only son. He make sure we don't lack anything. We all went to one of the prestigious Private University in Nigeria. I and my immediate baby sis are graduate, while last born still in 300l.

The problem is that, my father don't know how to dress, he prefer to wear faded and worn out clothes. My dad drive highlander 2014 model. If my Dad comes down from his car, you will think he's a driver to an imaginary Boss because of the way he dressed.
Blessed memories of my beloved mom May her soul R.I.P. She was always complaining and sometimes my Dad won't listen to her.

I'm a good fashion designer, my love for fashion is topnotch. I also own a laundry store and a barbing store. I've been privileged to sew some clothes for comedian Buchi which he loves so much and he promised to patronize me again.

GOD in heaven knows how many lovely, mature and soft dress I've sew and bought for my father with my money. He only wears it once and won't wear it again, there are some he haven't put on at all. He celebrated his birthday August, I bought this nice shirt 18k for him as a gift. Till today he hasn't put it on.

Please note: money is not his problem. The other day he stopped by at my store, I and my boys were working. He noticed nobody was using one of my industrial machines. He asked and I said it was faulty. He said how much? I said 170k but I'll change it soon before January....(because I just wrapped my car from corolla to ES Lexus)....Before I could say Jack... Baba don send me 200k. I ordered the machine instantly.

See what happened this morning, He got an invitation to attend a meeting. The smartest way to dress for a highly regarded man like him is native wear.
So he gave me this faded black trouser turning white to brush for him, that he wanted to wear it for the meeting...See eh, It was so annoying. I went to his room gathered the nice, starched and ironed native I could gather and I told him to select one, that I won't brush that faded trouser. He started saying ... " I'm proving stubborn and all manner things"... I'm sure our tenants could hear our argument.

Please Nairalanders. What can I do to make my Dad dress well. I plan to set fire on those faded and worn out clothes but it will look so disrespectful. I'm sure his friends have accepted his mode of dressing.
My siblings and I are tired of complaining.

Please I need an advice!!!

Your wise father is doing all in his best to deflect unnecessary attention from himself...
You are making it your headache to expose him to the world instead of you focusing on your career.
Leave your old man alone...sebi u be designer,
Gradually make him decent and fit clothing for his age as a form of gift while discarding the faded ones without his knowledge..
He will understand your action overtime without you arguing abt it

kenzysmith:
Let face this bitter fact what has been working well in this country before a coach u were owing 7months salary still qualify us for the playoffs and Portugal and ivory coast miss out, what has this coach really done to deserve this hatred from Nigerians? He has assemble the youngest squad in Africa history he has pick players base on form he brought ighalo in to give Nigeria option BAse on his pedigree in Africa what has this man really done?
You are all screaming he should look into the local league is the NPFL a serious competition? A league that does not has a resumption date? Even Ghanian league asahmaoh gyan is playing there because the league has a structure .
NFF should allow this man excute the playoffs a new coach now will want to change many things hereby distrup the process.
I repeat genort rohr has done no wrong I don talk my own.


Allow genort rohr do his job

It's all corruption...
All of a sudden,a sponsor is ready to pay d release clause of N450m plus... where was d sponsor when d coach was owed 6months salary?
We asked him to qualify us afcon and w/c....he is delivering..
We asked he should paid in naira...he accepted..
We asked he should be based in Nigeria?...Rohr agreed... What do we really want.
Which coach of repute will u get from Russia,Ukraine (shevchenko just signed for Genoa), belarus ...that LL agree to be paid in naira and live in Abuja...
Our mumu Neva do oo

deepwater:

Football betting....if u know ,you know

FrancisDiote:
Nigeria will not qualify for world cup with Rohr in charge. Eagles play without passion for the shirt and country.

Names don't win matches but teams do. Nigeria has no team to compete for the knock out qualifying phase of the world cup

Ivory coast had names and team,yet they didn't qualify... appreciate what you have...d coach met all his set targets since he was employed...that's why NFF can't sack him...NFF can only appeal to him to leave...and trust me,he won't....
Whoever want him to quit should pray someone else gets celebrated after he or she had done the most work...I hear AMEN?

Morris101686:
In the last five years we have wasted our time in football. There is nothing new we are doing any longer .To see a country with many professional players home and abroad struggling to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations and World Cup is heartbreaking. Gernot Rohr is not a good coach and I don't understand why he is still managing Super Eagles.

Orji Uzor quote " Gernot Rohr" is not a good coach I turned him down when I came to Enyimba

Well wanted to ask where was Orji's opinion when he qualified us to d last world cup? I then realized
He was in prison

Sebastine1994:
Rohr cannot even coach a small team in his native Germany,

We over value white man knowledge, I don't even see any difference that man has made.

Nigerian league is not dead. It just that they are not impressing the fans with success. Nobody loves a failure

Joachim leow spent 15 years with d German national team
His last 5 years performance was abysmal to say d least...he was respected but never sacked...
Saw Germany through a bad tournament..
Even when d world know d appointmented ex Bayern coach flick was better..
No patience for Nigerian s

longview007:
The earlier the better, to sack the coach is a better answer for our qualification.

Bring in tuchel now,our midfielders are struggling in Europe...
Save D cska Moscow guy,Ejuke...the others from Ndidi to Aribo, iwobi ,chukwueze ain't at their best at d moment...if we can parade an array of midfielders like our current strikers...we LL be good...no coach won't like to work with ighalo,osimhen,onuachu..etc

robosky02:
Name one exceptional thing Rohr has done or what other have not done

Ad I will give one so many things he has not

The reality is that we somehow miss Mikel in our midfield....the stability he provides and quick linkup play with ighalo, Musa,Moses usually kills off games for us...
Now we just can't go forward after we score the first goal...
I remember d qualifier with Cameroon in Uyo,we qualifed with that game irrespective of d outcome in d return leg in Cameroun with this same Rohr..
Ndidi isn't fully fit
Aribo is just back from injury a month ago
Iwobi is neither here nor there in Everton
Etebo ...out injured..
The midfield region really exposed Leon and ekong...
The strikers are great though

robosky02:
So guys who would you like Nigeria to meet


And who do you want us to avoid?



From this dangerous teams

Egypt
Cameroon
Mali
Ghana
DR Congo

SE can only handle Ghana and DR Congo....the above 3 will be hard to crack for d super eagles

RAFFIZY:
Good day everyone, I want to raise an issue that has been bothering me as a sibling, and also to my parents.

My sister who has just finished her SSCE exams has been engaged in indecent chats with various people on her phone, we were brought up under strict muslim parents, honestly they have done a good job parenting so far, for the fact that my mum knew something was fishy because she is always with her phone.

Her phone has been seized, since this happened yesterday she has refused to greet my parents or even assist in helping my mum cook and also refused to eat as well. Both parents have tried the best they can to enlighten us about social media and how to moderately use it, but my sister wouldn't care to listen, it's as if she is possessed because it has happened more than once under my parents watch.

Parents on this forum, kindly suggest ways to treat this matter urgently.

Send her to ole kewu(quoranic sch)...just 3 months let alfa cane reset her brain

*************************************

Good morning, I am married into a very wealthy home, my husband is the eldest child, they are four, 3 male and a female.

Last two years I got a nanny, she's 32 years, my husband is in charge of his father company, his father has houses everywhere around the world but he's leaving with us, because of loneliness, he lost his wife 12yrs ago and since then he refused to marry again, he's 65years old but still young, I have a supermarket, so my nanny cook and takes care of the home while I'm away, my nanny has been sleeping with my father in-law but I didn't know, March this year we found out she's pregnant and she said it was papa that was responsible, when I ask her how long she has been sleeping with him she said since last year.

I was shouting at her when my husband shut me up that I shouldn't talk to her like that, that she's not a child, my own house help! When my husband talk to his father about it, he said the girl, that is my nanny has been his companion that he wants to marry her, mogbe I said over my dead body, my own maid, instead of my husband to be on my side he said if marrying the girl will make his father Happy that he has his support, the house we are living is build by my father in-law, it's a duplex, Mummy as am writing you my husband and his brothers followed my father in-law to pay my nanny dowry, they came back yesterday.

I didn't go with the children because I can't Believe my father in-law stoop so low to marry my maid when there are other women out there, last night I was talking to my husband and he told me to stop referring her as my nanny that she's now Married to his father therefore I should be calling her "Aunty mi", and my kids who usually call her Aunty should start calling her "Mummy", and I asked him what will she be calling me, he said anything she likes.

I am just here crying, someone I brought into my home has now turned madam over me, what should I do, and I can't tell my husband to rent another apartment when he has a duplex, papa can't leave either because he want to be close to his son, how long can I take this, please I need advice. Thanks. Married for 10years.

What a Life!

******************
What Are Your Thoughts?

She would be in the comment section reading.

Madam, u are bothered because you never accorded the nanny the respect she deserve as a woman,caregiver to ur father in law.
You just saw her as a common nanny.
Perhaps Almighty want you to learn a thing about humility,I advise you learn.
Don't be hard on yourself and d lady. Relate with her like a friend now...if you continue with d boss/nanny attitude,it might cost u your marriage.. this I don't pray for you

500 daggers...4 wat na...dem wan open daga bussiness?...

I won't doubt if they v got a mission based on the security challenges attributed to the herdsmen..
However ,these items are sold on d street of Lagos na..
I bought 2 of those black and red daggars sometimes back and it was very handy when we had to secure our area after d endsars protest...so those items could be for sale

madjune:
That unit was used between 1985 to 87.

It was in the advent of IBB IMF borrowed loan which caused the downward spiral of the naira value.

It really had value back in the day.
Those 6 naira note can cater to a whole family's feeding through a week plus.

It's sad all Nigerians are left with are sad memories of the past.

But the herbart Macaulay note changed to silver coin around 1990-1991, 50k bronze like coin also came same time...
Smart Nigerian blacksmiths destroyed those coins.... Will buy N1 coin from people for N2 ..melt it ,make earrings out of it which was sold for 12-15 naira back then.
CBN sharpally stoped its production

mattmogan88:
So today I was poking around in my family old stuffs when I stumbled on my grandma's wooden box. I opened it I found a lot of interesting stuffs inside. There's this small bag that contains old Nigerian currency, both note and coins. It pained me somehow because thats a cool cash back in the days.

Wow...these kobo coins brought back my childhood memories..
We used to attach a string/rope to a speaker (one with magnet) of a bad/condemned music player then.
My friend and I then dip it in our street drainage....walking back and forth d street...
Some days we magnetise 5 10kobos...money for Coca-Cola....who says d street of naija isn't paved with money back then,?
