It all started on this great forum sometime around March(if my memory hasn't failed me), I advertised the position of a physics home tutor around isolo area. A lotta people applied, but there was this guy (name's withheld) who applied as well. On the basis of first come first serve, I gave the job to another person (but not him).


Afterwards, we became friends. With the promise that whenever another vacancy forth comes, I'll inform him. As promised, I did introduce him to other job vacancies I've been seeing @ that particular time. Even, I directed him to some of the home tutoring agencies where I previously work for placement. He kept telling me that he was destined for bigger things...

Unknown to me, he was carefully designing a plan on how to reap me of my hard-earned money. Sometimes, he comes to me to borrow tokens like 3K,4K, etc in the name using it as transport to look for job. Some, he returned, others, I leave for him.


Then, around the beginning of June, I drew his attention to the vacant post of a principal in festac area. I advised him to apply, since he told me he has worked as a principal before. Hence, he is qualified for the job. To cut the long story short, some weeks later, he told me he had been shortlisted. Later, he told me he had been appointed. See happiness now! From unemployment level to principal post.


A few days afterwards, I received a distress call from him, that his appointment may be cancelled if he doesn't fulfill some obligations. i.e. The school's dress code costs a total of #37500, He's also expected to collect one 'Notary public affidavit' abi na form self from High court. To cut the long story short, he requested (like someone whose life depended on it) that I borrow him the sum of #50000 which I did. Afterwards, the real scam of another #52500 was perpetually set in motion. That's a story for another day anyways.


In summary, I parted with over a 100,000 within the space of two weeks. The whole process of how it happened is a long story to write. But the summary is what I've typed up there.


The moment I realised I was being scammed, the Sherlock_Holmes part of me was activated. I tracked him to the level he didn't expect. As I type this, his lawyer and my Navy officers have perfected an arrangement of how he'll refund my money. The first installment of 20K has been paid, the rest will follow at the agreed time.


Now, to have come here to say all that 'Laureate gibberish' was as a reaction to my previous post of indirectly warning him here. Shey I told you people then that he's also a forumite but I don't know his monicker (Just like every other colleague of mine in my present place of work). And just as Isaac Newton has stated 'To every action, there's always an equal an opposite reaction'.
Unfortunately, he thought I was going to defame him, and so he took the first initiative. But funny enough, his own way of defamation is petty, intangible, and wouldn't hold water for lack of evidence.


For every single thing I've typed, I have both audio evidence and other documents to validate my claims. The moral of my story are as follows;
1- Whenever we meet people online, we should be careful of our relationship with them. Cos who many people claim they are online ain't what they really are.
2- Whenever we're doing financial transactions with people (be it friends or relatives) we should endeavour to keep evidences. These, we can put into good use should things go sour.
3- As much as I have a good heart, I've learnt that 'Expecting people not to do bad to you because you don't do bad to others is as foolish as thinking a lion shouldn't eat you because you don't eat lion'.
4- A reputation is what will speak of somebody even when the person is not there. See how those who know me have already defended me even before I open my mouth to defend myself.


Note, my background check even revealed what the Principal of Laureates College said behind my back. In his own words, he told a parent who protested my sack that 'Mr Ajibola is my friend, he's one of the best teachers I've ever had, but things just turned out the way it turned....'
So, how can the same management be behind this campaign of calumny? What point do they stand to prove? Even I have moved on....


P.S; Mods, please don't hide this post of mine so that everyone can know the truth. I may not be chanced to type something as lengthy as this again. And to that scammer, I've nothing personal against you, I need just my money...

Brotherly, haba! "outlived itz usefulness"? 4 wiah?
d fact say u just "upload" ((UPLOAD AGAIN? Abeg, no vex)) dis comment bin show say ds thread still dey useful o!
My ppl talk say: "person no dey smell/sniff d tin wey hin no dey chop o".
The truth is we all COMPLEMENT one another, just as d lips complement d teeth or as d anus complements d mouth. The day d anus stops working is d day d mouth enter "gbege"/one chance o!
BOTTOM LINE: One is EQUALLY as important as d other!!!
I appreciate you. Let's "live 2gether"!
Thanks.

"What I say to you all I say to all." These Scripture clears the arguments of Christ words being applicable only to the people of his time or His immediate disciples. That being that,as we all know, Prayer they say, 'is the master key'; an expression of the soul in harmony with the spirit and heart of the believer. Important as it is, prayers have principles (Prerequisite of receiving answers) just as nature have it's own principles guiding it, but this is not the focused of this article and as such we will endure to go into what brings up this article "Prayers every christains should pray".And listed below are prayers that fells in the list:

1. Praying For Ones Persecutors: As much as this sounds practically impossible it is a command from the Almighty that comes in this way "But I say unto you....'pray for those who persecute you.'" Wish I can take you all into the immeasurable beauty and richness of praying for ones persecutors but like I said we have a focus here.Notwithstanding, If God wills and as His grace endures I shall write on it. So in praying never pray against thy persecutors and enemy.

2. Praying For More Labourers: "The harvest is plentiful ,but the labourers are few" Pray then said Christ, "that the Lord of the harvest send out labourers into his harvest".This is the prayer God wants you to pray whenever you come into His presence.

3. That Yee May Not Enter Into Temptation: The power of this prayer cannot be under emphasized.It is in itself self explanatory; a prayer of trust,of need resulting in exponential growth in Faith. I adjure you to pray this prayer for yourself, children and families.

4. Strength To Escape The Hour Of Tribulation: "But watch at all time,praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place." Perhaps you are yet to know brother the tribulation is taking place soon before Christ will come( When I say soon I mean soon) and you need strength to escape these things because it is an event that has never occurred before.When Christ says "Praying" you can see the looming destruction ahead. Pray my friend for yourself, your family and children.

5. To Stand Before Christ When He Comes: "Praying that you may.......and to stand before the Son of man" When Christ comes many will have denied Christ because of families and children, because of right to buy and sell. Your prayer should be Let me stand before thee blameless O Christ; Pray this prayer for your husband, yourself and your children.

"Ask and Yee shall receive" No surer promise than this.
