My personal worst of them all - the one who is a lane polygamist. Cannot just keep to a lane and drive in a straight line like an adult. They will straddle two lanes and be eyeing a third and you'll be there behind them honking your horn fruitlessly. Gosh! This one makes me into the sort of foul-mouthed person that nobody will recognise.

Please to any Nigerian road users reading this: those dotted white lines on the road are not just helpful suggestions to be ignored at will. You are meant to drive inside a lane. Drive then indicate when you are coming out at least 3 seconds before you actually come out. Stop driving like illiterates! Please!

Honourable mention to the woman drivers who go around terrorising innocent drivers because the mugu at home is the one maintaining the car. Just continue o, you hear?

Honestly it's surprising the way some of u here reason at times. How on earth did this story suddenly turn into a political debate. Next y'all would soon start flinging insults at each other.
Let's face it...the reason y this young man is probably battling for his life is due to one reason and one reason only and that is Indiscipline!
And it's a trait inherent in all of us due to the environment we find ourselves. Today it's overcrowding on a moving train, tomorrow it's You throwing out a pure water satchel from your car or bus, or urinating on the sidewalk, or posting illegal posters on public walls or double -parking.
We all have a long way to go.

DonaldGenes:
Serves him right...

That's all iCan say....

Reason is that, a typical Nigerian Guy mentality goes like; when he buys a new baë(Ride) he immediately thinks he owns the road by driving recklessly devoid of caution..

However, glad he is alive to learn life isn't just about Cars or anything. ..

People should learn to live a simple Life.. This life is Just One chance..

I don't know the name of this school but someone sent the picture to me.

And only God can tell why secondary school students should be kneeling down under the sun lifting heavy bags.

God help Nigerians. Shouldn't this be illegal? I know someone can't to this to my child if they want to see d next day.

What are your thoughts on this?

Good evening pals, just got back from work and i want to share my story with you. I also need your contribution and experiences.

I work at Festac but i live at Apapa. I boarded a Mile 2 bus at Festac. When I got to mile2 bustop by 7:30pm, I boarded a danfo bus (LT35) to Apapa. The bus has five rows and i was at the middle. As we left mile2, there was traffic immediately after the bridge.

While pressing my phone, the girl at the extreme back near the window who was pressing her phone shouted "JESUS!!!!" We all looked back thinking that the truck behind us was about to hit us.

However,what we saw was a young guy in all black attire and a face cap trying to pick up something from the floor outside.

Suddenly, the conductor started shouting "Ole! Ole!! Ole!!!" (thief thief thief)

Before the conductor could even get down from the bus, the guy took to his heels. He ran into the other side of the road and we didnt see him again.....That was when we realized that he had stolen the Samsung S5 belonging to the girl sitting near the window..

And that was it, the phone was gone just like that. I was in shock till i got home.

Share your own Mile 2 experience.

Dude, don't get it twisted. This isn't 'male chauvinistic' in any way. We all know that 'nice' in this context doesn't relate to courtesy, etiquette and the like. Those are perfect chivalrous, gentlemanly traits.
'Nice' in this context refers to being a mugu, sometimes even inadvertently, because you want to be seen as caring or so. Any reasonable man would respect a hardworking, high-earning woman, because the probability of falling mugu to her would be quite low.

silvernice:
A post making front page doesn't make nairaland a chauvinist arena bro.

beengils:
For heavens' sake did u type all these to appease the female folk or what? I probably think you one of those few guys who give ladies the worst impression about us... OP is absolute sh*it being nice

9jaforlife:
Don't mind their bragging! Most of the guys fumbling here don't have nerves in real life . That's why they're so endless about their bravery on NL.

One important thing they've forgotten is that they are responsible for the nasty attitudes of most of these ladies. When a woman goes all out and gives them everything they want, they call her desperate, turn her to a door mat and start behaving like a prize to win; whereas they run after the so called nasty girls like a puppy running after a piece of bone!

1.They may take emotional,moral,physical or financial advantages of you in a daily life because you are being nice and do not have the heart to say NO.
2.They will start taking you for granted thinking "oh he's too nice,he won't say anything.Mr nice guy.
3.You may always be the one to bow down out of arguments simply because you habituated to being nice.
4.They will soon start finding you boring.
5.if you are just too nice to your partner all the time,you may find yourself doing all the work..
6.Being too nice may make you the victim of practical jokes because you will not be expected to retaliate.
7.You stop being yourself.
8.you will start living according to their expectation.friend-zone.
9.you rarely say no to request.mugu,maga etc
10.95 percent of nigerian ladies don't date mr nice guy.




Excess of anything is too bad,it's good to be nice but not uber-nice...i don't knw how true this statement is"Nice guy finish last"....be Real

butanep:
I have never been this confused. I proposed to five pretty & gorgeous ladies at different time, hoping that at least one will fall and accept my proposal. I was just playing the nice guy I am to them so that one will accept and fall to my chest.
To my greatest surprise, two of them called me last week, that we can start dating, that they find me interesting. As I was contemplating on who to accept, I received a message from one two days ago that she has accepted my proposal. I was so confused. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't reply them back, my head is just full with thought. I just want to accept one, but I don't know how the other two will feel, if I later decide to develop a cold shoulder on them.

Nairalanders, I need your matured and wise opinion to help me out of this tragedy without hurting anyone...
