WotzupNG:
Nigerian Rapper and Chocolate City ‘CEO’, MI Abaga was a guest on a pulse show where he was confronted by Osagie, a music critic who spoke of how Chocolate City has dropped in reputation since MI took over the affairs of the label.

He spoke of how the Artistes on the label are buying Youtube views and that the flagship Artiste in Chocolate City is nothing much to write home about.

This didn’t sit well with the Rapper who lost his cool immediately and resorted to using curse words multiple times. Video below.

Who's this Osagie? M.I did the right thing there. Let him try this rubbish with Mayweather he would be sleeping with the fishes. He started cursing and M.I even tried to hold his cool

NevetsIbot:
I don't know why you had to quote me with the so called e-uncles like you see me jumping around NAIRALAND making unsavory remarks at people. but it's all good.


mostly everyone knows what I'm all about here.. and trolling isn't it.


Have a nice life. Steal the good parts of bad company. Absorb good company. Clamp those ego wings down a bit and don't puff up in pride then stay off fcckboys.

Lol! I don't think she meant any harm. She's smart and confidence and it's great. She needs these to succeed in life

winsomelady:
I keep saying it, Nairaland is a great place. Somebody has offered to mentor me! Isn’t that a great privilege? I tell you something: I will grab it with both hands. It is because of my membership of Nairaland. Take for instance, the thread I quoted above, won’t you rebuke us as unserious pikins if we don’t take advantage of it. Please mentor us. As somebody was counseling me here, don’t do drugs, don’t watch porn. That is what we want from you. I took the advice with all gladness. Tell us not to go to Romance section (I don’t visit such places because this is not the time for that; I have never had a bf, and I am OK with that). Get your acts together so that you can earn our respect. We the small pikins read some of the horrible and irresponsible things that you spew out, which we even think is beneath us. Once again, I am pleading on behalf of the ‘small’ pikins’ with all humility that you should put your acts together. Resolve that gutter language and uncouth manner will not be found among you again.
Which one will you prefer I do? Visit boyfriend(s), and engage in irresponsible acts and engage in “girls’ talk’ and waste my life. I choose to be a responsible pikin. Instead of staph, gonorrhea and unwanted pregnancy, I get mentored (and for free) and get to ‘meet’ amazing people such as PaulPaulPaul, SeyiAyorinde, and countless others.

Awwwwwww!!! That's so sweet. Do study well for your exams okay? Now drop that phone young lady and read your books Wish you the best

lefulefu:
[s][/s] michele obama is the one behind obama's success.that's why he treats her like a queen.

She is. I read his biography years back and kudos to Michelle. Obama had nothing, he was even a chain smoker then. The world wouldn't have seen a great President if she had gone for the men with the fat account and nobody would have known Michelle. Ladies seem to forget that when you build a man you create a goddess in yourself. But they go after these ready made men who keeps them indoors getting fat and becoming ig and snapchat queens while their men impregnate small girls and the ladies who marry the 35k earners make a great man

Criis:
How much do the ladies themselves earn?


Mind you, Zuckerberg earns $1 salary per year

You're right, ladies often bring nothing to a relationship but sex all for money and the comfort of life. While they want the man to do all the work. By the way that Mark Zuckerberg 1 dollar per year salary is scam. It's just a policy by America CEOS to make people work tirelessly all in a bid to promote a false image they earn less but they get paid other benefits and housing allowances which runs into millions and sometimes billions of dollars

rosalieene:


so I saw this post on facebook,
"Ladies can you marry a man who earns 35,000 as salary? "

Lol, ladies gat no chill.

One said "Can't even buy me a wig let's say the truth here NO"

lady B said "When Human Hair 16inches cost 35k.. abegi!! Double your hustle .."

lady C said "Please you people should stop asking all question..
35k cant even completely pay bride price...
Even self contain house rent...
So why this question"

another said "But oh, 35k, how will he pay my bride price biko, I dont want to marry myself"

Another funny comment: "Would he give his sister to a man earning 35k monthly? Let's be realistic while answering, biko. Leave materialistic talk"

*sighs*

my beloved ladies, so am throwing this question to you.

35k a month is 420,000 a year. That can cover rent and if the young man spend a year in a family member's house would have enough to take care of his needs till he finds aa great offer. Mind you the question is marrying someone who earns 35k not forever most importantly there wasn't no scenario.
Most importantly all naija babes wants the fantasy marriage life, get treated like Michelle Obama when they have zero to offer. I told a friend today that a man will value that friend who stood by him when he had nothing than that wife who came when he had the world. Michelle didn't date Obama when he was something. He just had a pocket of dream and he was the annoying young man asking her for a date. So 35k is a good start, Rome wasn't built in a day. 35k and a plan is something but a man earning 35k and who choose to sit on his ass is his own enemy.

collinsebuka:
1 thing I can never do is marry a girl that isn't intelligent.


You should be engaging and know how to talk about global issues and politics.

I come from a family where everyone is smart/overachievers and constantly talk about politics, business and global events Now how will my girl fare if she isn't knowledgeable, will she just keep mute in a family gathering.

I've met nice and caring girls but they didn't know how to talk, weren't even engaging and couldn't talk about world affairs or give opinions about business.

imagine having a wife that doesn't have any idea about anything or can't help you with ideas to grow your business. it's not compulsory for you to have all the degrees in the world but at least you be knowledgeable and smart

KNOWLEDGEABLE AND SMART!!! I will have financial challenges, I'lll need to go further in career and I'll need to talk to my wife. I don't need a wife that's only bred for the kitchen but don't know how to make a career with her man (Michelle Obama). Bro I wonder when Nigerian girls will look beyond makeup and cars and get a life

Op your next topic should be what sex on the bed causes, bed bugs or Mousquitoes

SHTFguy:
Lie lie

Papillo came about because of the old school kangol aka papa's cap Kanu used to wear off field those days The name was not given to him by fellow team-mates but by Nigerian football fans.

Jay-Jay was a nickname Okocha picked when he was with frankfurt FC and it was from his fellow German team mates who said Okocha looked like Jay-Jay from the 80's comedy sitcom "Good Times".


Useless bloggers

Very useless. The article didn't make sense because the source iss wrong. You're right. Also the fans then made a song for Jay-Jay. "...so good they named him twice..." the OP and Moderator need flogging

This one is just mad and has people telling her but she's close to death

This one is something else

stanleyalpacino:
Bros leave that guy. He is possessed. His penchant for using uncouth words on people will soon turn into an obsession/addiction which will be hard to get rid of in real life

I believe whoever handles that account must be an adult. Look how he was insulted and embarrassed by a girl barely 16. What started as fun for him but the unnecessary praises he's getting here has gotten into his head. He got served

winsomelady:
Thanks. You rock! I am happy you've gone through some of my posts. By their words, we shall know them (the idiotic cyber bullies). During my graduation, I won many prizes. I represented my school in many competitions. When I was in JSS3, I competed in Cowbell Maths, competed in MAN (Mathematics Association of Nigeria) competition. I sat for and passed NECO and JAMB in SS2. I decided not to try the admission then because I wanted to study Medicine and be a Neuro-Surgeon, though I had over 200, but I knew I had no chance then when there were many with 280s and above.

I am not here to blow my trumpets, but once in a while you need to put irresponsible kids (sorry if I sound disrespectful, It is not in my character to do so.) where they really belong. You decide whether someone is an adult or kid not really by the age but their IQ and conduct

Cheers. I love you all. Peace

Awwwwwww!!! I bet your parents would be proud of you. I would
On the behalf of all the responsible adults on NL, congratulations

Op Temple Run As Nick For A Teacher.....Abeg When Did You Finish Junior School

When I saw 'Temple Run' I almost quote the OP to go back and read his/her books. That game came out yesterday. Nairaland need to check the age of its members.

ThisKC being a Michael Jackson fan I've no favorite MJ song. All of them tell it's own unique story that still stands the test of time. There will never be another MJ

Televangelist Joel Osteen cancelled Sunday services at his Houston megachurch but was reluctant to reopen its doors to Harvey victims — despite the fact that thousands of flooded-out residents are desperately seeking shelter.
The perpetually smiling pastor told followers on Twitter on Monday to lean on their faith.

“Jesus promises us peace that passes understanding,” he wrote. “That’s peace when it doesn’t make sense.”

He later tweeted a message seeking flood-relief donations to his church.
“You have taken so much money away from your people to live like a king,” entertainment publicist Danny Deraney blasted. “It’s the least you could do.”

Ministry spokesman Donald Iloff had claimed that the property is inaccessible because of surrounding waters.

Osteen was prompted to respond to the criticism. “We have never closed our doors,” he said in a statement quoted by ABC and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “We will continue to be a distribution center to those in need. We are prepared to house people once shelters reach capacity.”

Washington, D.C.–based writer Charles Clymer tweeted pictures of Lakewood Church, which did not appear to be damaged by floods, and later updated his feed with this shot from inside the church, where air mattresses had been laid out apparently meant to receive flood victims.
It makes no sense to open church doors when the city and county are already treating thousands of flood victims at the nearby George R. Brown Convention Center, according to Iloff.

“It has everything inside there — medicine, doctors, places to sleep,” Iloff said of the convention center. “It’s amazing what they’re doing there to make people comfortable.”

Lakewood is a nondenominational church hosting some 52,000 attendees weekly and is one of the largest congregations in the U.S.

SalamRushdie:
As matter of note I Try not to have any business dealings with anyone that has a very big pot belly , there is a reason why that tummy is that big and it's lack of control , gluttony and greed ..Experience has shown me such people are always quick to cheat others, very insensitive to the plight of others and very self centered which are all of the characteristics I can't stand

Exactly

alBHAGDADI:
We all loved it when facebook hit the internet as it made it possible for us to connect with old friends and keep up with a social life. But these days, facebook is beginning to appear different from what it use to be. I’m not talking about the improved features but how it is becoming a place for decent minds to stay away from, especially Christians. This was brought to my awareness by a brother I met few days ago. He raised some points that makes it seem like the website is now designed to make Christians sin or backslide. Below are some of the things he pointed out which you are most likely to see on Facebook. With such around, he says Christians need to visit the site with caution or boycott it if they don’t want to backslide.

1. Violence

A day doesn’t go by without coming across a video showing 2 females fighting. The problem is that the more you watch such videos, the more you lose your humanity. If care is not taken, when you see people fighting, you might pull out your phone to film 2 them just cos you want to also make a trendy video instead of separating the fight like the peace maker you ought to be.

2. Graphic images

The problem about this is that it desensitizes and reduces you to a barbarian who doesn’t get irked by the sight of blood. The images are usually those of accidents, murders, fights etc. Pictures are even better. What about videos of beheading and jungle justice?

3. Naked pictures

Churches, religious organizations and their members are all on Facebook where they do their business and connect with each other. But with the level of naked pictures circulating on Facebook, such religious people will either boycott the site or get lured into sin. I think there should be a restriction that ensures you don’t see certain things depending on your preference. Do you think naked pictures are no issue? Check the next one.

4. Pornography

This is now rampant on Facebook. Mind you, it is not only adults we have on Facebook these days; teenagers and even kids are frequently accessing the site. A 12 year old kid who really shouldn’t know much about sex is now exposed to videos showing how a penis penetrates a vagina in different styles. The next thing is for such a boy or girl to try it out at that young age. We are now being bombarded with live porn videos and the sad part is that nobody is saying anything about it.

After he finished giving his points, I realized all he said are actually all I see on facebook these days.

https://www.wotzup.ng/facebook-gradually-becoming-unsafe-christians/

Do me a favour, drop your phone and look around you. You'll see Violence, people are always fighting because we're humans and chaos is bound to happen, if it's not Boko Haram it's Arewa Youths vs Ipob.
Drive on the highway you'll see dead bodies, cars on fire, accidents and blood littering the streets.
Indecent dressing and pornography? Walk around your town you'll see girls half-dressed or if you work at night you'll see hookers waiting for customers.
So if you're not matured enough to understand that facebook is a representation of our society and what we see daily then quit social media and I mean nairaland too because I don't understand the mod that dragged this to front page. Are the Muslims, budhist, atheist and other religious folks complaining? Or better create your social media app for your kind

Nigerians sef. If you don't agree with someone attack the points laid with logical reasons not attacking the Op. Why fight dirty when you can bring logical reasons? And btw I agree with the Op BrainNewsNG

jully29:
thnks for ur matured contribution. it was actually a mistake during d registration period den. d person dat helped me @ d cafe den mistakenly filled my state of origin in my place of residence. so wen it was time for deployment, I was now deployed to my state of origin according to d mistake dats on d form.

Oh Dear

6) Self-Belief

Harvey Specter’s defining quality is high belief in himself — how self-assured and confident he is in his abilities, mental resources, and disposition.

These are beliefs honed not in fantasy but in honed skills. Tempered on the battlefield of life. Entrepreneurs fuel their success on the principle of “it’s better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission,” because if we waited for other people to okay our next steps forward, we’d never launch. We’d never grow. We’d never triumph.

In many ways, belief in yourself becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Fail fast. Fail forward. Learn — but act in accordance to what you believe is the next best step.

Without action, there is nothing.

Harvey Specter might make a terrible therapist, or clergyman. But as a model for an action-taking businessman who gets things done, he’s a textbook.

5) Keep Moving

Right from the start Harvey is known as “the best closer” in New York City.

Why is that?

Because his focus in on action after action.

As he says, “I don’t have dreams, I have goals. Now it’s on to the next one.”

This echoes something Howard Schultz, founder of Starbucks, recalls saying after his board apprised him of a multimillion dollar new product flop, “Tactical Error. Onward.”

We set goals. Sometimes we miss. Sometimes we hit. We learn from both. We set our sights forward.

And take new action toward new goals. This is how businesses grow.

4) Maintain That Eye Contact

Throughout the series, Harvey is confident enough that he maintains strong eye contact with his clients, colleagues, enemies, and of course attractive women.

Why is this powerful?

Because as you keep eye contact with another person, it signals many things such as that you’re actually engaged with them, your interest in a person, even how confident you feel.

Practice maintaining relaxed, open (no, not bug-eyed) eye contact with family, friends and new people you meet — they’ll notice a difference.

And they will feel — especially in this culture of distraction — that you are genuinely present with them in the moment.

3) Stay (Flexibly) Solution Focused

In an early scene, Harvey asks Mike, his apprentice fake lawyer, “What are your choices when someone puts a gun to your head?”

Mike responds with, “What are you talking about? You do what they say or they shoot you.”

Harvey then replies with this golden nugget of a line: “Wrong! You take the gun, or you pull out a bigger one. Or, you call their bluff. Or, you do any one of the hundred and forty-six other things.”

Harvey chooses to focus on solutions. Many of them.

Choosing this frame of mind will not only help you solve your own problems and others, it’ll make people respect and admire you because you’re more focused on doing something about the problem rather than wallowing in despair.

2) Your Appearance Matters

In the first episode of Suits, Harvey says: “People respond to how we’re dressed, so like it or not this is what you have to do.” And he’s right. We are still a tribal species — and we respond to social status signals, for better or worse.

Within seconds people make snap judgements about you, as you do them as well. If you seek to display authority, dress that way. If you want to encourage a softer kind of empathy, say, If you’re a therapist, then choose less intimidating clothes. Softer textures. No power suits.

How you dress your body, and how you move your body — your body language — provides a short cut for others to know your intent.

So then how can you use this lesson to benefit you?

Simply decide how you want to be perceived and start taking small steps towards behaving and doing things that are aligned with that image of yourself.

When you pay attention, life is full of tiny moments of enlightenment. Deep insights can pop up from something you see in the street, a story a friend tells you, a movie, a book, a poem, or, increasingly — a TV show.

Breaking Bad can teach you about pride and limits of loyalty. The Sopranos can teach you about the wake of pain caused by retained emotional wounds. USA Network’s Suits can teach you about social and business confidence — especially through the character of Harvey Specter.

Here are six life lessons you can glean from Harvey to bolster your social status, though these qualities will do little for your soul.

1) Own Your Character

In the show Suits, Harvey Specter is viewed as a charming, confident, sometimes arrogant man. Harvey doesn’t apologize for who he is. You’ll notice that people recognize this and accepts this fact. He defines his realm. You won’t see Harvey worrying about what people think of him whether it be positive or negative — in fact he’ll sometimes use those negative opinions to his advantage.

How can you apply this in your life?

Take to heart the idea that how the world views you is based on how you view yourself. Meaning if you assign yourself a self-doubter, the world will doubt you.

Operate from your measured sense of what is right and wrong. If someone gives you cause to re-assess your opinion or direction, consider that in private. And make your decision in repose, rather than bend in the moment to what sounds good.

npowerng:
Good day, At this point the Npower programme has no redeployment .

Maybe jully29 lives in Lagos but registered in her place of origin like Edo state, all this hidden community and I guess she lived all her life in Lagos and her parents have no more friends there. Correct me if you think otherwise
