blamingthedevil: IGBOs are denying their brother Major Nzeogwu Chukwuma. What a day to live.
Nzeogwu is from Okpanam (now a suburb of Asaba)
His antics during the first coup were the reason Murtala Mohammed, Ibrahim Taiwo and their fellow northern troops carried out the Asaba massacre...plus they wanted to punish Asaba people for the audacious march Biafra made through Asaba towards Benin and Ore, at the start of the civil war.
DWJOBScom: This actually shut me up You are right that people are sympathetic to scam and find it convenient until they are scammed. BUT Your statement seems to make crime a good one and sympathetic to the thieves
Not at all, I'm not sympathetic to scam. I simply made an observation, and also viewed the issue from the two relevant perspectives
DWJOBScom: Scamming is not accepted in Nigeria, and no sensible person should agree with you. You said Slave trade was once and was fought and rejected. I don't want to be associated with a scam and scammers are thieves and dregs , dirts and unless beings of the society
My post has a hundred and twenty likes from Nigerians, yours has none.
What does that tell you about Nigerian society? (don't be like some chaps here who grew up without learning how to reason/think - which is the major reason Nigerians love scams, afterall )
joyandfaith: NIgeria Stock Exchange and Africa Traditional Religion are also scams according to your logic. Again, Can you tell tell me if scamming is acceptable in any part of the world.
i just told you dude. I can't help you think if you never learnt to use your loaf
joyandfaith: Don't forget say even before white arrived Africa, slave trading was common. In fact in old oyo empire, warriors raided towns to get slaves. Slavery was normal deal then. Can you tell tell me if scamming is acceptable in any part of the world.
Wall Street is one big endless scam. The Dollar economy that Western (Jewish-Caucasian) hegemony has imposed on the whole world is a scam. Religion is the longest running, most successful scam in the history of mankind.
Jakumo: Scammers do exist and operate all over the world for sure, BUT those in Nigeria do constitute a far greater percentage of the general population than is the case anywhere else on the planet, with the possible exception of Jamaica, where lottery scam practitioners are numerous and prolific in their own crime wave.
Scamming is accepted as a profession within Nigerian society, which is fair enough, considering the level of human & technological development. Afterall, slave trading and ownership was once a legitimate job in American & British societies at some point in their development...
We cannot stop life from happening, we can only strive to make ourselves into better humans whilst we live it
RichDad25: Fresh 2023 presidential election sensitization Poll. Tinubu seems to lead the polls ahead of PeterObi, Atiku and Kwankwaso. Nevertheless, let the street decide who will win before the actual votes starts next month.
peepydelano: Northerners don’t tolerate such bullshits. Na market carry them go there, so they should simply face it and mind the business that pays them
[quote author= post=120035831]Tinubu is wasting his time in Northwest, I said so far Kwankwaso is on the ballot and not supporting any candidate, Northwest is under his control[/quote]Let him spend na, afterall he stole the money from Lagos treasury, no be im papa own
babasolution: You don't understand my guy,there were many jungles in the area,even as at 2000s,the area I was living was virtually a bush ,the place is now a highbrow area now filled with majority igbos
Because they sandfill the flood plains and water channels to build their illegal structures?
Don't worry when LASG decides to implement the city's masterplan people like you will still come here and scream about victimization of Igbos
INDOMIE9090: when tinubu was inflicting the so called “pains and hardship” on Lagos indigene during his tenure,your worthless fathers were eager to jump on the next available night bus to same Lagos to share out the pains and hardship right? Why didn’t they stay in their eldorado to enjoy good governance from the fraud called obi.
Bītch stfu already you slimy cunt, what dl you know about anything
valentineuwakwe: The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited on Friday announced the discovery of oil in Nasarawa State and said it was set to drill the first foot of an oil well in the Northern state.
It said the discovery was in continuation of its oil exploration activities in the country’s inland basins, adding that it would spud the first oil well in Nasarawa State in March 2023.
On January 5, 2023, The PUNCH reported that NNPC was prospecting for crude oil in more locations across the north, after discovering the commodity in Bauchi and Gombe states.
The report stated that NNPC was taking coordinated steps for more frontier exploration in the region, as part of measures to shore up the country’s oil output and reserves.
The company had disclosed this in a document on the frontier exploration services activities of the NNPC from 2020 to 2022, as outlined some prospective states where oil was expected to be discovered include Niger, Nasarawa, Sokoto, Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Bauchi, and Gombe.
Beyond the North, the Anambra basin was listed as another area where the NNPC was striving to find more oil.
Prospecting is the first stage in discovering the oil and gas fields, under which seismic surveys are carried out.
On Friday, NNPC’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Mele Kyari, announced the oil discovery and the planned spud-in when the Governor of the state, Abdullahi Sule, led a delegation of prominent indigenes on a courtesy visit to NNPC in Abuja.
Kyari, in a statement issued in Abuja by the corporation’s spokesperson, Garba-Deen Mohammad, said the results of exploratory activities confirmed the presence of substantial hydrocarbon resources in the state.
He called for prompt action on the project as the global energy transition had led to a reduction in investment in fossil fuels.
“This work must be done very fast because the whole world is walking away from fossil fuel due to energy transition, the earlier you go to market, the better for you,” Kyari stated.
He added, “Otherwise, 10 years from now, no one will agree to put money in the petroleum business except it comes from your cash flow.”
He said community support and a conducive environment were key to a successful operation in the area, in order to avoid the experience of the Niger Delta.
In his response, the Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, congratulated the NNPC boss on the successful commencement of oil production and the Kolmani Integrated Development Project which was inaugurated in November 2022 by the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).
He commended the President for his support and assured NNPC of a conducive environment.
Alesa3341: Hello Guys, please I need a sincere and matured advise on what to do. This will be long, please bare with me.
I'm 27, am a businessman, I have this girl I really love so much and intend to marry her this year December, but one thing about her is her bad character. She challenge me, talk back at me, shout at me, get angry with me for days, refuse to cook when she is angry, disrespect my family, most especially my mum, always trying to paint herself good and paint me bad in presence of people, these are just little of the things she has done to me.
When she lost her job, and had nowhere to go, I had to bring her to my house, and provide everything for her, food, I change her hair twice a month, subscribe unlimited for her, I just provided everything a woman need to be happy for her. Last year November, she told me she haven't seen her mum for 5years and wanted to travel to see her, I spent close to 200k to take her to and fro, including other things she needed. She insisted on collecting the bride price list for me when coming back, I spoke to her mum and they gave her to give me. I was planning to finalize all on the weeding this year.
Last year DECEMBER, I took her to my family to introduce her, but this was the biggest mistake of my life. She was completely disrespectful to my mum, talks to me anyhow in presence of anyone, even to the extent of refusing to cook for me anytime she is angry, I go to kitchen and prepare food myself.
I love this girl so much but I still thought of continuing, with all this attitudes, I advise her everyday, I also took her to my pastor who advise her too most of the times, but she never changes.
Fast forward to 2days ago, we had issues because she told me to join her in washing and I refused because I was working on a client project, she got angry, washed the clothes and when it was evening she brought the clothes inside, folded her own in the wardrobe and just threw mine into the wardrobe without folding or arranging them. I was angry about this, but I kept mute. The next day, she sent me "sorry" on WhatsApp, I told her to come to me physically and apologize but she told me she can never do that, and why was she even apologizing, that she did nothing wrong, we exchanged words and she left my house.
Today, she called me and told me she is pregnant, and that I should send her money to remove it. I was like "just like that"? We didn't discuss about it, how will you just tell me you want to terminate my pregnancy, I told her to go to hospital and confirm it and also get the test report, she did this and sent to me, it was true she is pregnant, but she insisted on removing it, I persuaded her and she still refused, claiming she can't be a single mother. I told her I will take responsibility, but she insisted on removing it, I told her to go home and think about it, and she told me she can't leave there without removing it. After so much persuading I decided to give her the money, and told her if she removed it, that it's on her, that I didn't consent to this.
I asked her why we can't keep it, and she said because my family is bad, we support evil, if the sky is blue, we say it's red, that my mother is a bad woman, and she doesn't want to come there. She said so many bad things about my family, I was shocked! I asked her, how are they bad, she said "how can my mother be telling her to wash my clothes" I was just confused, After all I have done for you, is it bad if you wash your husband to be clothes, I left her!
Later she told me the doctor referred her to another hospital, I still tried to persuade her and she said her decision is final. She asked me to give her money to go to the hospital she was referred to, I refused! I insisted that we keep the baby, she told me "I'm a nobody, that she will call now and she will get money to go" I angrily blocked her. Later, she called my other line and told me, she went to the other hospital and the doctor told her, the cost to remove the pregnancy is 125k, she told me and I insisted on keeping the baby.
Please guys help.me, I don't want to terminate my first child, the girl is too disrespectful and rude, I don't want to continue with such woman, but she is carrying my baby, what do I do? And if she later agree to keep it, how do I go about it?
You all are just saying "don't marry her" what about the baby? Should I agree to abort it and give her the money?
MODIFIED
Don't marry that witch. Pay for the abortion and make sure to never set eyes on her again
Otitipupa: She has been staying with us for over a month now. I don’t even know how they met each other, he just brought her one day and introduced her as his girlfriend.
I have tried to tell him it’s wrong being with an underaged girl but he told me to mind my business. I can’t say much to him because I don’t have a job and I’m squatting with him. He is the one feeding me and giving me money to go for interviews.
He is treating the girl really bad. I sleep on the floor while they sleep on the bed. One night, he wanted to have his way with her and the girl said she was tired. I heard him tell her that she is not a real woman that is always ready to please her man. He threatened her he won’t marry her again. She told him she is sorry and allowed him.
He has slapped her 2 times in my presence. He is treating her like a slave. I am afraid to advice the girl to go back home as she might tell him.
The guy is a notorious cultist and I don’t want to step on his toes. Please how do I report this matter anonymously to the right authorities without it backfiring me.
We stay in a akwaibom
You're just as guilty
Go to NAPTIP in your state and report him immediately, I'm sure they can keep you anonymous
Banilla: Mods, take this to the front page. Thank you.
Hi everyone! I have a boyfriend, we've been together for a year. I absolutely love him, he's my whole world! And that's the reason I'm pressuring him to save, if we're going to have a future together. And he's down for it, he makes nothing less than 200k monthly. I'm still a student, searching for a decent job. I can't invest sh** presently but I hope to start soon. Yesterday, I brought it up. I want him to send money monthly to my bank account, no matter how little. I'll save it for him. He's hesitating. He said I should be patient, he'll give me everything I need but he wants more time. I don't want to ruin our relationship but I need his co-operation. I'm scared he might leave me, after I've given him the best years of my life. I subtly threatened him that my family would force me to marry a Nigerian but he made a joke out of it, saying I would never, that I'm his...
What should I do?
NB: I've never taken a dime from him. He drinks often and I don't want him spending 'our future' on alcohol! I'm way better at saving.
I'm worried if I press the subject, he'll get mad at me.
I also told him I want to leave Nigeria, he thinks it's a good idea and I also told him I can't afford it alone. He said he needs time.
Doesn't he love me? Should I let it go? Or insist we resolve this?
