The country isn't easy o, make God help us all!
abba190: My relationship with sapa is not beneficial to me at all, I wannna end it nd be rich. I want a lifestyle of prosperity not hunger and uncertainty, I want to enjoy all the good things life offer before I leave the earth. how can I get rich in a shit hole called Nigeria I don't wanna end up like the majority of old men in nigeria, I don't want a life of struggle and struggle and at the end kick the bucket without enjoying any bit of life.
Bro, leave all those studies alone cos there's more to it .... lets just leave it ....
See, Bible says that the power of life and death is in the tongue .... anything the enemy brings in dream or vision, its our duty as christians with authority in Christ to nullify it ....
If i wan go buy dreams wey i don get or people tell me about me, i suppose don die 25 years ago ....
Switinthemiddle: the thing is that we even studied about dreams in church last week.
No spoil your brother great day with your yeye dream joor ... that's how you people dis-stabilize somebody's life ....
Switinthemiddle: Hey everyone today is my elder brother's introduction and its a cause for merriment in our family. We are currently on our way to his inlaw's house but i'm worried about a dream my mum had overnight which she disclosed to us this morning. In the dream- she saw us all in our living room chilling then all of a sudden a pregnant dog just ran into the parlour and all the lights suddenly went off...all efforts to find the dog proved abortive as we couldn't see in the dark. So if anyone has an idea or what this might mean please indicate... And no insults.
1tb isn't a lot of data o except u don't stream videos or download large files sha and i am not sure there's a 1 year plan sef and if e dey, it will be on the high side
I don't have that but what i know is, u pay for the speed u want and the speeds offered so far are:
20mbps - 20k 40mbps - 35k 60mbps - 50k Ultra 200gb unlimited - has unlimited speed but is data capped at 200gb ... there are other plans with bigger data cap but when i tried the 200gb ultra, i finished it in 19 days with moderate usage...
1. Ensure u have a working anti virus (avast free) ... scan the entire hdd with another laptop 2. Ensure u have anti malware (malwarebytes does a good job) ... scan the entire hdd with another laptop 3. Ensure your ram is properly seated in its slot and also, the contact are not dirty/clogged up with dust 4. Do not auto-update windows ... i repeat 1 billion times ... update does more harm than good .... it practically breaks your windows 5. As soon as u are bouyant, switch to Macbook Pro ... Apple OS is more reliable ... and u don't have to have the latest ... but the minimum year u should buy if u do graphics/editing is Mid 2012, 8gb ram, ensure the storage is SSD ... even if na 128gb u fit afford
Kalatium: I woke up 2 days ago and noticed my laptop is showing me this. I haven't used it for a week so I am wondering what could have been wrong here.
Today is even the worst. Once it starts booting and it will shut down. It will keep booting and shutting down by itself.
Mtn? Na the name i fear most now o ... dem fit kee person with data billing and disappearance ... Its good to switch to airtel jare ....
And i think there's airtel plan for that your mifi o!
Best thing to do is to go to their website: https://airtel.com.ng and input that airtel no there, then click to buy bundle ... carefully look ... i've seen that plan there too ... afterall, we are not using the full power of the 5G sef so 20mbps go work wella with your mifi
I tire ... the max we've done is about 650gb and i was doing some heavy download - tuts, footages for editing, vfx, etc ... but on a normal day, just 250gb is what we normally clock and its super fair for 20k ....
omotola90: haba...wetin person wan use 1tb do for one month...I love football...Wifey na so so film. I give airtel their flowers tbh...
I'm telling u .... na airtel dey save boiz now o or else, MTN for don use our eyes see shege barawo ... u buy 100gb and e can finish in 5 days ... u will start questioning the usage ... but this one? Unless u hit 1 or 1.5 tb, it won't have issue (someone told me)
omotola90: Alright thank you...though, I don't have issues with electricity in my place though. I will opt for this then. The unlimited plan is good one from Airtel tbh
Actually, it comes in 2 units (at least mine, I can see some people posting a newer one that is just one unit). One is the receiver and the other is the router. You are supposed to place the receiver close to a window and it is what holds the Airtel sim. Then you connect the receiver to the router via LAN/Ethernet which broadcasts the WiFi signal.
Fyi, I sometimes connect from the receiver directly to my laptop using LAN.
Sorry about the demise of your dad and also your school issues et al… life happens and we just have to find a way to deal with it … life has to go on …
You’re super duper lucky someone is willing to part with 1 milla for u … well, that’s the breakthrough u need as regards seed fund to jump start your journey into career/business…. Wish I was this lucky like u …
If possible, influence your NYSC posting to somewhere u can grow fast, like lagos … you’ll learn a lot fast and grow, rather than spending your 1 year in a remote village where u might not even smell electricity/internet for a while …
Web Development is a good stuff to go for and u can get up to speed with the basics in some months if you’re willing to really give it time.
Cinematography / Video editing/ motion graphics / 3d are also good fields you can dabble into and do well while making good money.
But u should understand that there’s a learning stage and then, earning stage?
To get u started, u will need a laptop and trust me, I am not part to those Gen Zees that will tell u that u must buy 4 million laptop before u can start video editing or web dev, all na lie dem dey lie.
U can get started with a laptop of about 200k (I don’t mean those pepper-yoyo touch screen laptops o, don’t buy them) .. something like core i5 or i7, 8gb /12gb/16gb ram, Storage should be SSD, 15.6 inches is ok and a battery life of say 3 hours is fine … it can be windows or Mac but I’ll recommend u getting a Mac for a start: a 13 inch 2012 MacBook Pro (specs above apply) will suffice cos of the price, battery life and upgradeability …
Once u have that, next stage is to decide if you’re the type that can learn on his own with video tuts or u need to enrol in a school to learn these stuffs.
I’ll recommend a hybrid approach: Learn via courses but try to apply as an intern (without pay) at a company that does what u wish to learn … like a media or web development company/agency where what u want to end up doing is what they are doing …
I learnt a lot on my own using self taught videos sha and later, started mingling with guys who are top guns in the fields i want ...
Combining what you’re learning at home and what you’re learning on the job will fast track your growth … your internship might not be more than 3 months … during which that balance u have from your seed fund can be used to survive (spend wisely: no carrying of ladies Ugandan or u go know how far)… They may even end up employing you cos you will have mastered how to do quite a lot from them while running around as their “mumu errand boy” and doing assignments given to u … And if they don’t employ u, u will have gotten a lot of links via working with them
By the way, Nigeria of today, u can't sit down with just 1 thing ... u gas learn 2 or more things to be able to make enough to sustain your existence ...
My advice is to: Start small, scale up and keep growing … if u need further clarification or help, drop your whatsapp line and I’ll reach out to u.
I lost my dad second year in university while schooling in a private uni in Benin republic..cuz of lack of funds I was only coming to write exams thru the help of my peers..at the end of duration of the course in order to go for nysc in 2017.my bill was almost a million naira with miscellaneous it gonna pass that mark...now 2024 ....I got this bro in the UK who said he had only a million to spend and I should not bother him about anything after that...he was asking if I wanted to go and pay the debt and go for nysc or do something else like business Firstly am not sure of a good career job after the end of the NYSC. Secondly I don't know a thing bout computer science again but I know am gonna catch up if I could find the money to go for any of the web development courses Thirdly I got passion for art even though I don't have talent for singing..I love sounds,movies and the special effects they use in making them but I don't really have much time to waste in much passion..I need something that I could do and earn and be independent Have researched and was fixed on video editing and cinematography before...but have discovered even more with 3d animation,3d modelling,motion graphics,etc...I love them all
but I really need help on the one I could learn that will get me on my feet quickly...and the cost of training and tools needed that won't pass the said amount...I don't wanna blow this opportunity
Noooo, stick with the nokia o cos even the highest speed i got when using the unlimited ultra (200gb data limit but speed is uncapped), was 160mbps which is still within the realm of 4G ....
Hope u get me?
Until they start giving us speeds like 600mbps, then u may consider switching but for now, stick with the nokia jare...
By the way, does this nokia router, have an external antenna? Cos the unboxing i watched was kinda funny: saw some cable sticking out..
FarEl18: Do you mean it's only the 20mbps you can do?
I currently use the Nokia receiver + router and use the same 20mbps unlimited plan. But I was thinking of switching and buying the Airtel 5G router and be using it for either the 20, 40 or 60 mbps plan because the router is more portable and has a power bank.
Do the other unlimited plans work on the 5G router?
If you have no job at the moment, i'll advise u move (u alone o), to lagos, find somewhere to hang your head, do the 60k job but be on the look out for other opportunities with higher pay, that u can move to.
Don't let anyone fool u ... Zero naira is zero naira!
At the end of the month, from that 60k, with super management, u can still be sending madam about 10 to 20k monthly for upkeep ....
If u have skills, u can see opportunities to make use of such in lagos ...
u see that abeokuta, i ran from it some years back and i'm doing waaaay berra in lagos
And to make matters worse, house rent in abeokuta, is almost same with that of lagos
bigluv84: Please advice me, I got a job of 60k in Lagos am presently living with my family at abeokuta, am planning to move to Lagos to start the work. The advice is 60k job is okay for the family of 4 in this Nigeria economy.
The 60mbps is faster but the fastest of them all is the unlimited ultra 200gb ... But the data cap of 200gb is something I can't live with
Intent247: Hello bro. I bought the Airtel router and was given the free one month subscription. Currently using it to stream on my smart TV. But I noticed that sometimes the upload speed is dam slow.
I saw subscription on their app which is Unlimited 20, unlimited 40, unlimited 60. Of Course the price varies . I was told that's the unlimited package .
I only tried the unlimited ultra 200gb which has data cap of 200gb data cap but the speed is unlimited .. I got about 130mbps but the 200gb, go finish faster than u think
Intent247: Have you tried the other speed base plan? What's your experience with it. Cos it seems this 20mpbs is slow when uploading videos
Yes, it does switch to 4G ... it even switches to 3G when the network is bad and its seamless, u won't know unless u check the network indicator led lights on the box
earthrealm: Does it switch to 4g, if you travel with it, to a 4g location
Bro, comot face for the matter ... na so some mothers & sisters dey do ...
Focus on building your own wealth ... that's all that matters ...

Hey bro, don't mix things up... having stapph doesn't stop u from having rock hard er.ec.tion ...
But if you've got typhoid in your body, it will affect your er.ect.tio.n ... yeah and simple 1k anti biotics will fix that ...
As regards the staph thing, have u run any test? If yes, what the result like & what have u tried so far so i can recommend to u cos i had the staph thing before and spent quite a lot before getting rid of the damn thing ... and its stuff u can buy & prepare yourself ...

You don't have any problem ... read that again ... you don't have any problem ... na u wan kee your own steeze
dongalaxy: Good morning Nairaland. I have been deeply troubled lately over my health, I had written about this here years back but it keeps growing bad daily .
I had been diagnosed staphylococcus and as a matter of fact , it's a product of ignorance and not sexual exploit because I had my first sex at age 26 and before then I was never sexually active .
My life is in ruins now cos I'm closing to the year of marriage and my sexual life is nothing and to cap it all, my girl is even a virgin and being that I'm not sexually effective, I couldn't even disflower the period she stayed at my place and because of that , I pretended I was not sexually interested so it won't sound I was after sex as she had labeled all men to be .
House , even if I end up not having a wife in life , my health now is in a big mess as my private parts inches like what I can't even quality, pls house , if anybody has a lasting solution to this , the person should as a matter of urgency help me cos I'm dying in silence .
I had been defrauded repeatedly because I was looking for solutions to this menace , how can I be living, money I don't have , healthy life , I can't enjoy , haba! Life isn't just fair to me .
