Jayjerjay: If you compare the cost to fix the TECNO device and the Samsung device both within the same price range, I think you would spend more on the Samsung... I'd think of something durable and less cost of repair when I want to get a device also Sure ... There are 3rd party replacement screens for both so cost of repair isnt an headache for me ... Besides, it is essential to be prevent screen cracking ... Considering that I will be getting OS updates as well is worth the pay ... I use my phone's for 2 years plus ... |

radiolover: Thanks. Which skill would you recommend? Have any in mind? It depends on a lot of factors like: 1. what u have flair for 2. What is in demand 3. amount of time/resources you can dedicate into acquiring new skills Try your hands on: 1. Coding (Web/App Design) - html/css/javascript 2. Motion Graphics & Animation - 3. Social Media Marketting 4. Copy writing 5. Video Editing All of which, there are video tutorials online that can teach u 80% of it . It takes time though but its achievable. We have gone past the era of "Go to school, get good grades then get a good job", into the era of "what can u do with your hands and your coconut head". Even me, that i'm employed, i still do side jobs to augment what i earn so, try your hands on any of these fields listed above. To know what recruiters/employers/clients need or skill they want, check job sites like indeed and check for keywords like "animator", "motion design" "video editor" "web developer" "javascript developer" etc |

radiolover: I have sent possibly more than 80 applications and fortunately, I got called by a few.
I have exhausted scarce resources to attend interviews, editing and re-editing resumes to fit a certain role and position, cost of transportation, I don't want to even mention having to trek a long distance sometimes due to lack of fund to pay Tfare. I mean someone is broke and hungry and trying his best to land a job but he's rather receiving rejection mails. What is this?
On Monday, I received a rejection mail from automobile company where I applied for a marketing role. On Tuesday, I received another one from a production factory.
Now I just returned from another job hunting only to open my mail and saw another rejection mail. This very one pain me most because I had high hope on it and i have spent so much on it too. During the second stage of the interview, I can remember how I waited from 8am till 5pm just to see 'Oga', and after seeing him, I began to walk my way home and got home late. I know i'm sounding sentimental here but it's so annoying that i went through all that 'ontop empty belle' and at the end, I wasnt offered the job.
Very very painful and morale killing.
I feel so bad right now.
Feels like the world has crashed.
Feels like everything has finished.
Feels like everything has ended.
Feels like more hunger for me ahead ahead.
Who has faced this before?
How did you comfort yourself? U simply keep pushing by applying to more places. Don't give up. Someone once told me "a wise man makes more opportunities than he finds" Increase your chances by acquiring skills to increase your chances bro ... Stay blessed |

Adeshi: At first i thought it was stress, but yesterday, i was home throughout and it happened again. This is like the 4th time this year. I'm really concerned and i do not mind any advice as to what could cure the problem. I called a friend of mine this morning to request to see a urologist, he said i might have to wait 2-3 months to see one.
I do not want to wait another 2 months, my marriage is just 2years and my wife is starting to worry too.
A 34 years old married man still betwets. I need help please. I think it has to do with the part of the brain that controls what's called "Night Time Urinary Control" ... according to what i read some years back., if its not properly developed or if you do have constant malaria (cerebral) and u don't treat properly, bedwetting may occur. The question is, do u have constant malaria/typhoid? If yes, treat the 2 and make sure its completely cleared from your system. I wish u the best bro! You will overcome but you got to make steps to get it done! |

Car Talk › Re: Help! My Car Is Always At The Mechanic by bigl: 10:36pm On May 07, 2023 |
Labragadaya: I bought a 2002 Toyota Camry as my first car in October and for the first 2-3 months the car performed pretty well.
However lately, from January it has been one problem to the other.
From overheating to coil problem to spark plug problem and others.
The recent issue with the car is that the car doesn’t hold slow anymore.
That is the car goes off at slow speeds. I’ve changed coil, changed spark plug, ringed engine twice all to no avail.
This has caused a huge hole in my pocket as I’ve even had to borrow to pay for some of these repairs.
Just yesterday in a bid to resolve this issue, I took the car to another mechanic and he told me my engine block had washed and that even if he grinded the valve the holding slow issue won’t stop. I inquired about the cost of replacing the block and purchase alone was close to a 100 thousand. I’m just tired and frustrated, I need advise, do I sell the car or do I repair this?
Is this mechanic trying to extort me. Experience car users please advise Its most likely your fuel to air ratio sensor ... the one at the right side inside of your bonnet (if u stand facing the engine).... One silly mecho i should have shot at close range broke the sensor (which works by air being blown into it from the engine) ... this senses load from the engine and either reduces or pumps more fuel into the engine for power .... the silly guy broke it and instead of telling me, gummed and blocked the damn thing .... it costed me another engine when i could have replaced something of N1200 back then .... i bought 80k engine.... Why not scan the damn vehicle sef? Those mechos can never enter clouds not to talk of heaven |
Health › Re: How Do I Boost My Immune System? by bigl: 5:04pm On Apr 25, 2023 |
Bro, no be only u ... i have treated malaria 4 times in 60 days (Late Feb till yesterday April 23rd) and the drug i used this time, cured the malaria but also knocked me down completely and I felt terrible since sunday that i've finished taking the last one There are several factors that can be responsible. 1. The drugs you're using are not capable of killing the malaria parasite hence, it will suppress it and the moment u finish using the drugs, it comes back. 2. The water you're drinking sef can be your enemy = mr typhoid so you might have to buy amoxycilin (500mg) to treat typhoid alongside the malaria issue 3. Try cut down stress bro! That stress brings out the malaria symptoms. 4. Sleep under mosquito net to atleast, limit the rate at which mosquitoes bite u bro! 5. Try go to a govt hospital and ensure they run test on you to know what the problem is. I don't think you're hiv positive .. .na malaria dey make u feel like that ... i felt same way this couple of past weeks. Mrwhite09: I am living like i dont have a working immune system, i fall sick regularly like every week. last week i was on malaria drugs and antibiotic, i havent finished it then again yesterday i fall sick again nd they inject me with another malaria drug and give me another antibiotic.
i am tired of taking these poisons i feel like they hv started affecting my liver, i am very vulnerable to viruses and bacterias whenever a person cough to my face the following day i will fall sick.
i dont have hiv as i did the test several times all negative, but i suspect i have cancer cux of the presence of a swollen lymph node on my neck. guys im truly tired and depressed i cant hustle normally because of my condition please if you know anything that can boost my immunity tell me. because of my condition i know a lots of antibiotics like cipro,amoxyl,doxycline,clarithromycin,azithromycin e.t.c i dont know why these doctors never get tired of prescribing these drugs to me. i live constanly with a stomach discomfort, fever, flu, colds nd catarh there is no any known ulcer meds that i hvnt take in my life but i am still thesame. its depressing me nd making me suicidal. i dont need money from anyone i just need help from people that went through thesame situation or people that know of a solution.
There was a time someone cough on me i spent complete 2weeks sick. |

mosho2good: I've been working in a private school for the past 8yrs and I never pray for any of my generation to fall Into that trap of teaching again, my question is I have a laptop which I'm not sure I can use to code cause it not the Core series and I'm interested in IT and which to enter the world of tech since day one, but I've been teaching myself programming but later lost focus along the way when I get to the hard part, now I wish to ask and learn is there any IT skills one can learn through his phone or through this kind of Laptop. I'm willing to learn now cause there's no more time to waste and the working I'm doing is just only to feed myself. The laptop I have with me is the ProBook which I don't know if there's anything to use it for rather than reading Eeya ... I feel you bro ... That teaching thing especially private school is .... It is well... Almost any laptop can be used to start coding lessons ... And it's even good you've started before .. You can use your phone to learn and possibly code but it's got its limitations... Hp probook is more than enough to get things started up now ... Nobody starting out has enough money to buy a high end computer and like always say (in Sam adeyemis voice) "start with what you have from where you are". Send me the probook specs : Processor type and speed Ram/memory size Hard drive size Screen size .... I've used a mini laptop before to run 3d programme cos I was foolish back then and wanted to buy brand new but mini was what I could afford for 50k when I could have bought something better ... I eventually (cos of the tiny screen size) connected it to a bigger monitor to achieve my aim and got paid. Don't be discouraged at this stage bro .. I'll await your response to to my request above. |

Joemavel: So I've been running some businesses for some time and it turns out during this Buhari regime business went south lol.. As in, we all know the situation in the country.
What even dashed my hopes finally was the kinda election we had in this country where I had hoped for a true change as I've always been vocal against japa and why it's okay here and no place like home. But since the last 1 month I've been buying into the japa syndrome.
But I'm I to blame? E no easy with wife and 2 young kids of 2yrs plus and 4months old.
Please I need help with ideas on IT courses one can learn with the internet as I got access to not top notch but substantial amount of internet access. Or even a good handworking skill that are lucrative abroad.
A skill one could possibly japa with, because I wanna start considering my options. I do not see the next 8yrs having anything significantly left for me in this naija. What business were u running before? You're married bro with 2 kids? Wow! That is always a motivational factor! Anyway, try your hands on: 1. Web Design/Development 2. Motion Graphics/Animation 3. UI/UX/Mobile App Design/Development (the Gen Z threw it off and rebranded it as Product Design but na same jare) 4. Video Editing/Cinematography 5. CopyWriting Lemme stop here. The 1st step is to get yourself a laptop ... that's pretty fast ... core i3 or i5 or i7, 4gb or 8gb ram, 250gb hdd or 256gb ssd (ssd is faster) 14 inches screen upwards. They are usually cheap if u can get a UK used. If u have that, i can help with some materials .... that is if you're ready to sit your flat yansh down and study, then practice ... but if not, enjoy your Bala Blue Naija ooo  But the main thing about this fields i mention is largely dependent on your passion: If you simply just want to make money off this, you might be disappointed along the way cos of some difficulties (which is of course, part of the journey) but if u have passion, you will be able to scale through without being discouraged which of course would pay off cash wise.

yaseer111: Good morning all
Firstly, i am a student in one reputable state university in this country. So, there is this cleaning company I've been working with for more than 3years now which sustained me. as a street sweeper and student i usually woke up as early as 5am to go to work sweep and clean my lot before 7am and return to prepare for school.
But about 3months ago the state Governor decided to end their contact and bring another company to handle the job. We were lucky part of the contract is that they'd still work with us.
So the new company came in we're very happy that they even increased our salary to 15k per month instead of 12k that we were being paid before. Infact, they also employed more cleaners since they got additional lot.
Sadly, it has been 3month now we're working with this new company but they never paid us a dime and we are about to resume school new session and I have not save anything for registration as I usually do saved 8k every month and manage 4k.
What do you think we shall do
Shall we report then to public complains office or Stage a protest to government house since the state Governor once said in a radio station that he paid the money. I'll advise u get another job ... cos reporting might not end well ... You're a student and i'm assuming you're still young ... why not suffer small while looking for a job or acquiring a skill that can fetch u more money than 15k? Cos even 20k is tiny amount to live on |

Just that If we can afford the cost of going for foetus testing whenever she's pregnant so as to ascertain the genotype of the child. According to him if the test is conducted and it turns out to be AA or AS, we can keep it, but if it's SS we determate, I have spoken to my gal and we are yet a decide despite this seeming goodnews that we can still be together if we choose to, she really wanted us together same with me. On my part, I have been in terrible and toxic relationship for the past 4years that almost claimed my life but God served from her. And this my current gal came along and she's exactly what I prayed God for, she's really like a gift to me, since she came I have had peace of mind I don't want to loose her because of genotype but thank God for this technically medical advancement , please I want to know if anyone have undergone this treatment before , what's your experience or experiences Bro, its not worth is AS marrying AS ... trust me ... i've seen the consequences and disaster it brings .... if u experience the pains and agonies a SS kid goes through, u won't even consider this adventure....
