Hmmmm, I experienced the same thing when I got married in 2015. She did Fibroid operation in 2016, no results. We both went to test ourselves, Doctors found out I've no fertility issues...My wife did HSG , we found out both Fallopian tubes are block. Omo, we tried many herbal remedies, no way. By December this year (2025), my marriage will be 10 years. Only God know what my Mother (RIP MAMA, 2023) went through for my cause.
Anyway, My girlfriend is currently Pregnant, we did it just once and she picked...
Bro, the ball is in your court. No time to waste time !

Infact u took the word out of my mouth. Bro u will need a lot of money and you will eventually battle with depression and high BP. Its better to have low sperm count than blocked fallopian tube. Well use ur tongue to count ur teeth. U see the looking for second or side chuck is what u will eventually do with time. Blocked tube no be easy thing. Forget all those herbal or church. Nothing can unblock it except by sheer luck.

I read all what you guys typed there but many people don't understand that to relocate no be easy thing. Some people use up to 7years before they are stabilised. Its much easier to get homeless and be depressed. House rent is monthly. No abeg for their. Some people go months without jobs. Some people are sent money from Nigeria to pay house rent. Some people leave on the street. Some people because of wahala are mentally depressed in mental home because they are stressed trying to pay bills. Most Nigerians dem selves are ingrate. They say uk people no dey pass 20k but forget say no be only them dey drag the same person. Guy that u don't know if he is in prison or in debt. First 3years some people still dey pay school fees debt. Some people self no know how their rent will be paid. 3yrs some people are still struggling to understand even the language so how can dey even get good jobs. Do u know that jobs abroad is harder than Nigeria jobs. Do u know that even with masters many Nigerians are still doing KP, warehouse, replenished etc. Wouldn't u be talking if the guy called u and start lamenting about how bad or terrible his state his? No be this same platform people were celebrating when their was a news about uk and usa deporting Nigerians some weeks ago. People were saying they should bring them to nigeria so they all suffer together. Person no contact u why don't u contact him before putting all those out. There are two options it's either u didn't treat him well or he is still finding hus feet.

I always spend 300 naira to get a cool hair cut and 100 naira for my barber to apply dye on my hair. (I have my own dye) Hence he just mixed and apply). But if i don't want to apply dye, na 300 naira normally here in kaduna.
But i traveled to lagos last week and decided to barb my hair. After barbing, i ask the barber how much, he told me 1k. Like 1,000 naira. Omo we almost had an argument cause i felt cheated.
I cannot be barbing my hair again every week in this lagos.
Despite i went with my own clipper. The guy no even on gen

17£ to 20£. Here na by how low u want it to be. If very low na 20-25£ depending on shops. Barbing cost for here. Heard it is much expensive in london

The day I stopped believing all these Nigerian pastor was 2020. No man of God could predict something of magnitude like COVID 19. All these men of God never foresee it. My Bible made me to understand that if you walk with God he will show you hidden secrets and things to come. When God wanted to destroy sodom and Gommorah, he told Abraham even though Abraham was not even living there. Something like that can not happen and God will keep it away from his servant or children. All we have is God of men.

this is funny, did they train you in school? Are you not doing the lesson cos of money? Or you told them the lesson is a way of you giving back to the society? You are not finished if you set a standard for yourself, except you are not good in what you do before you can be at their mercy. I didn't tolerate any parent more than one month in my days of that home lesson hustles, if I leave, their children begin to give them headache and I hardly turn back once I stop coming to your house for lesson, except in few cases where we already had a good relationship before you start misbehaving. I guess you are in a rural area or probably an early years teacher. No Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry teacher stoop low for parents to rubbish in the name of home lesson except he/she isn't sound.

If you are good u are good. My primary school students were already solving gmat maths questions. I don drill them. Even their classmates were telling their parents to employ these kids lesson teacher. I no dey teach for their school but all their teachers knows me. When I was teaching in secondary school shingbai I no dey see because most parents believed that if their kids no know book they go use special centres but u see primary school if u are good u will see correct lessons. If you are good and firm the kids go respect u. Last time I came to Nigeria, I brought them lots of chocolates and biscuits. I also gave them 10 to 20£ to my lesson students. Then during pta or teachers day I go carry gift tire go house. Primary school is better than secondary for lesson hustle for teachers

Teacher's salary is so poor that if u don't do extra lesson u won't have even money to feed. I taught for over 14years. Started from senior secondary teaching physics, maths and further maths. I noticed that you will hardly see lessons for this level of class because they are mostly independent. Then I moved to primary school even that I already have a masters in science from unilag. Then I used to make close to 200k while my salary was 50k. I was so good that I have my hands full that I always give out lessons to my colleagues. I had a family where I taught three kids and the kids are so good that even their teachers in school was like this ur lesson teacher is making my work easier. After a while I was just going to collect pension. I told their parents that these children don't need lesson teacher again because they already have studying habits and foundation is already strong but their mama no gree. When I got visa to the UK, the kids were almost crying. I had like 5kids I was taking. Least was 40k. I was even short paid but my lesson parents never owed me. One paid my ticket to uk self

From Hunger to Hope: Reflecting on Nigeria’s Journey Since “Ebi n Pawa”

“Ebi n pawa!” That expression — “We are hungry” — wasn’t just a complaint two years ago. It was a cry from the soul of a nation. It echoed from Lagos to Kano, Port Harcourt to Maiduguri. You didn’t need a microphone to hear it; it was in the faces of mothers at the market, fathers at the bus stop, young men on the streets, and children waiting for meals that never came. It became the anthem of pain, the chorus of a people grappling with the shock of sweeping reforms introduced by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in his very first week in office.

Nigeria was in turmoil, not because the policies were necessarily wrong, but because their timing hit a society already living on the edge. So the question we now face — two years later — is both urgent and fair: Are we still that hungry?

Back in May 2023, when Tinubu took the reins of power, the foundation of the Nigerian economy was cracked. No, not cracked — shattered. The nation was drowning in debt, most of it incurred not for building railways or factories, but for paying salaries, maintaining a fuel subsidy that lined the pockets of the rich, and defending an artificial exchange rate that stifled growth.

What the new president inherited was more than a moribund economy; it was a ticking time bomb. Oil had already been sold forward, meaning Nigeria was effectively broke. There was no money coming in from crude exports — our primary source of income — because it had been mortgaged in advance.

The previous administration of Buhari had quietly printed money, devaluing the naira without the courtesy of telling the public. But Tinubu couldn’t cry foul too loudly — some of those who caused this mess were his political allies.

He could have chosen the path of least resistance, the usual Nigerian way: kick the can down the road and pretend everything was fine. But he didn’t. In one of the boldest opening acts in Nigerian political history, he removed the fuel subsidy.

Suddenly, the price of fuel tripled. Transporters raised fares. Traders hiked prices. Even sachet water vendors felt the pinch. The people who were already struggling now felt like they were suffocating. The frustration was real, and so was the anger. Social media went ablaze. Protests flared. Opposition voices got louder. “Ebi n pawa!” they cried — and rightly so.

But that wasn’t the end of the storm. Next came the unification of the exchange rate. Nigeria had operated a dual-rate system for years, one for the privileged few who accessed dollars at official rates, and another for the rest of us who scrambled for forex in the black market. It was a system ripe for corruption, creating billionaires overnight while choking real businesses.

By merging the rates, Tinubu wiped away a major incentive for fraud. It wasn’t smooth — it never is. The naira plunged. The cost of imported goods spiked. But this was the price of honesty, of facing the truth about how things really were.

So, yes, we were hungry. But that hunger wasn’t just about food. It was about the pain that comes with correction — the sting of necessary surgery. The old system was bleeding us dry, and for once, someone decided to stitch the wound instead of just covering it up with another bandage.

Fast forward two years, and the picture is beginning to shift. No, it’s not yet paradise. Inflation is still biting. Prices of rice and garri still bring tears to the eyes. But compared to the chaos of 2023, we’re not where we used to be. Take a closer look — not with emotions, but with the eyes of understanding — and the signs of progress become clear.

Today, Nigeria has exited the IMF debtors’ list. That’s not just a statistic — it’s proof that we are no longer borrowing just to survive. The Tinubu administration cleared a $1.61 billion debt and restored Nigeria’s credibility on the global stage. Foreign investors are watching, and they’re starting to return. The stock market is booming. When he took over, the All Share Index stood at 55,738 points. Now, it’s over 103,000. Market capitalization has crossed ₦63 trillion. That’s not magic — it’s investor confidence fueled by clearer, bolder policies.

And what about infrastructure? The fuel subsidy money is no longer going into the pockets of oil marketers. It's now being used to build things we can see — roads, rail lines, and power projects that matter to everyday life. The Renewed Hope Infrastructure Fund is not just a slogan; it’s real. The foundations are being laid for a stronger, more connected Nigeria.

Tinubu's federal government has embark on major road construction and rehabilitation projects across all geopolitical zones, from the Abuja- Kaduna-Zaria-Kano Dual Carriageway, the 9th Mile-Oturkpo-Makurdi Road, the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, Abuja-Lokoja-Benin Road, Enugu-Onitsha Expressway, Oyo-OgbomosoRoad, Sokoto-Badagry Road, Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway, Second Niger Bridge Access Road to Bodo-Bonny Road among hundreds of ongoing road projects across the country.

Let’s talk food. Yes, hunger still exists. But the grip of the grain cartels — those faceless hoarders who manipulated scarcity for profit — has been broken. When the price of rice soared beyond ₦100,000, Tinubu’s team didn’t just watch. They acted. Tariffs on food imports were suspended. Mechanized farming equipment was imported from the US, Brazil, and Belarus. Local farmers received incentives.

Gradually, food production is rising. The goal is clear: Nigeria must feed itself. The youth have not been left out. From the Skill-Up Artisans Programme to the National Youth Talent Export initiative, young Nigerians are being prepared to compete globally.

NYSC members now earn ₦77,000, up from ₦33,000. That’s not just a raise — it’s dignity restored. And for those struggling with tuition, the Student Loan Scheme now offers real hope. No one should drop out because they can’t afford fees, and that’s the message this administration is sending.

Even the average Nigerian can now dream of owning appliances or even a car through the Consumer Credit Corporation. Over ₦200 billion has been set aside so that ordinary citizens can buy goods and pay over time. For a country where “cash and carry” was once the only way, this is revolutionary.

Security is still a challenge, yes, but there’s movement. The military has been better equipped. Inter-agency coordination has improved. Kidnappings haven’t disappeared, but many sleeper cells have been dismantled. The approach is shifting — not just guns, but intelligence and strategy.
Revenue?

In just six months of 2024, government revenue rose by ₦9.1 trillion. That’s more than double what we had in the same period the year before. And for the first time, all three levels of government — federal, state, and local — are receiving steady, increased allocations. That means more power to the grassroots, where change is most visible.

Wages have gone up too. The new national minimum wage stands at ₦70,000. Not everyone in the informal sector is feeling it yet, but it's a signal — that this government recognizes the dignity of labor and is ready to walk the talk.

Still, let’s not pretend that all is well. Many Nigerians are tired. The pain of the past two years is real. Prices are still high. The naira still needs more stability. And the wounds from the fuel subsidy removal are still fresh in many homes.

But transformation is never painless. It comes with dislocation. It requires sacrifice. And it demands patience. What Nigeria is undergoing is not just reform — it’s a full-blown economic reset. We’ve moved from illusion to reality, from quick fixes to long-term solutions. It hurts now, but it heals later.

And so we return to that haunting slogan: “Ebi n pawa.” Are we still hungry? Not in the same way. We are no longer hungry because of hopelessness; we are hungry because we are in transition. We are adjusting. We are healing. And we are learning to live in a system that finally tells the truth.

The hunger of 2023 was panic — confusion in the face of sudden change. The hunger of 2025 is different. It is the hunger of a nation finding its feet, discovering its strength, and realizing that growth is a process. But processes need time. Buildings need completion. Foundations need walls and roofs. We cannot afford to abandon the journey at halftime. President Tinubu has started something bold — something rare in our history. He didn’t play to the gallery. He played for the future. Now that we see the first fruits, do we go back to the same policies that brought us to the brink? Or do we press on?

Let’s be honest with ourselves: for any meaningful reform to succeed, continuity is key. Interrupting this process in 2027 would be like removing a doctor halfway through surgery and expecting a miracle. Nigeria cannot afford to go back to subsidy games, dual exchange rates, and lazy borrowing. The path is tough, yes. But it’s also clear. And with Tinubu at the wheel, the destination is visible.

So, no — we are not as hungry as we were. We are still hungry, but now with hope, with direction, and with purpose. We are no longer lost. We are no longer blind. We know where we’re going. And if we truly want to see the end of this hunger — not just a temporary fix but a lasting solution — then we must let this government finish what it started.

Come 2027, we must not change direction for the sake of change. We must hold on to the one leadership bold enough to break the old and build the new. Because what Nigeria needs is not just another election — what it needs is consistency, courage, and continuity.

My friend u are just trying to paint a bad incidence in good light. Just like been economical with the truth. Even tinubu knows that he has failed woefully so why trying so hard to paint him in a good light. Tinubu never promised that he was going to make Nigerians suffer or fuel price high same as dollars. He never promised Nigerians that he was going to take this long to fix the country. He is a big failure period

Sirchiboy:
Name one mistake you have made in life so someone else doesn’t do it.

Believing that Nigeria will get better and hence not leaving when I was in my early twenties but forties.
Our parents lied that sojourn can never be sweeter than home. Not during apc regime. See ajo is sweeter than home.
Second is going for higher degree instead of certifications and training. Adding education level instead of skills.

Arostar2023:
Hmm... Africans and obsession with ethnicity. Too much diversity is a recipe for disaster and confusion . It's time Africans start consolidating into a strong unified force. Check out the Whites , in the USA, you can't tell apart people that have Irish, English, Scottish, Polish, etc. origins. The Hutus are fighting the Tutsis. One black man from Ogbomosho is busy fighting another black man from Anambra...all from the same country.

Guy na lie be that. If u wan see fight, call a Scottish British and come see fight. Abi na Welsh way dey happy say Queen die u wan say they are united. When Spain was playing England in the European Cup na all the Scottish way I know dey support Spain. No one supported England. Truth is a Scott will never be friends with English but English man always support Scottish but scot no hate English pass The way Europe hate Putin for real

If I am the president of this country, teacher, doctors, armed forces go get highest salary even more than law makers because of their services. Any government that pays their teachers peanut like Nigerian Government can never grow. I will even do better than that lady. Me way I dey recognise my secondary school classmates from voice call after like 26yrs ago

I think they should be conducting mental assessment for the Nigerian law makers because how on earth will someone with functioning brain wake up and think of such stupid thought , not evaluating if it makes sense before opening his mouth wide like he goat to say it in the chamber. Funniest thing is that another idiot supported it showed that we have failed as a nation to elect slow thinking people to govern us. The top is that this bill was put forward by speaker and supported by deputy speaker of the house is the most shameful thing to ever come out in this dispensation. Their counterpart are arguing how to move their nation forward, ours are arguing how to enslave theirs. No bills on welfare, no bills on corruption, no bills on human right nothing. By the time the youth wake up there won't be any country to call our own

When samsung 25 ultra is 1500£. That is over 3million naira. Though the phone worth am sha.

2026---Madrid will win trophies...next season

As Madrid dey go trophy-less this season...they won't be trophy-less next season...

I knew Barca will win some trophies this season..cos they went trophy-less last season

Madrid and Barca don't go trophy-less in 2 seasons in a row...they must collect at least 1 cup

Barca is more hungrier than Madrid this season... reverse will be the case ...next season

U are very funny. If Madrid no win league who go come win am again. The two clubs don become crowner for the league and they always share it among themselves except some years when athletics decided to spoil their party

[quote author=Kalatium post=135108060][/quote]Add Geology and Geophysics to that list. Two difficult courses but no value in Nigeria economy. If ur papa no get leg or CEO for one oil and gas, u go teach geography tire for secondary schools

Baba Olowo, how you dey?

Oga mi ur boy gentle oooo. Abeg send dollars

Money that I will make one Sunday 13hrs is even more than this. Let me say one Saturday with NHS for 12 hrs is equals that pay

Na Barca get this year champions league. I can see barca vs arsenal final

Biofil84:
Yea barca can pass to be one of the most dangerous team in europe no doubt but certainly not the most dangerous.

People keep looking down on arsenal and arterta...these guys play a kind of futbol that is not common ..in almost if not all the games they play they naturally just take over possesion and the midfield..a testament of dominance and confidence.

All the players do contribute but the heart of it is a certain Ghanian born midfielder thomas partey...even fabregas in his analysis confessed...that his level of composure, ball control is second to none irrespective of the opposition. He said he is the one responsible for the transition from defense,midfield to attack.

If arsenal play barcelona in final for example barca midfielders will be second to every ball. He is midfield maestro. Arsenal ceased midfield from Psg in paris and reduced them to ball pickers.

Hmmm i fear who nu fear Partey oooo

Definitely you have not been watching barca matches. U see the to toe arsenal no fit. Na partey u dey use compare Pedri or Gavi or Curbarsi or Dejong. Arsenal coach self no fit talk wetin u talk. Barca way beat Madrid for Bernabue 4-0. Can arsenal beat Madrid for Spain even when they were all complete not when Madrid defence are depleted through injury or suspension

Gerrard59:
Why would a former rector of a polytechnic japa in the first place only to end up in a factory?

Sometimes, I take these posts to be comical.

Those "bankers" were contract staff. Any previous permanent staff who works in a care agency must be very mad!

Dey whine. My former course mate was assistant branch manager in a very big bank in Nigeria starting with G. He already had a masters before doing another one in the UK. He was the first to join carework while I was doing factory work as a student. Baba still dey nhs dey do support. His yearly pay in Nigeria is not up to what he makes in two weeks

Liverpool can never be like city. City break record. Win league and all the cups in England.
Next season won the champions league, premiership and carabao Cup. Because their manager get personal issues Liverpool con dey flex muscle. If not for man city problem, Liverpool no go win anything.

Which stupid ops be this. I had to type I believe in one rapist/paedophile of a prophet to answer this thread.
It's not nice for Muslim ladies to be smelling like 10days corpse all because the quran says so. Hygiene is important haba. No use ur own pollute the environment. That was how one pig of a girl was farting allover the ward yesterday. I give am strict warning because u can't come and turn the whole place into ammonia lab

IAMBOSS1990:
Good game abeg, Thank you PSG. With Liverpool being the strongest team out of the way now, Madrid should go for the title again with confidence

So Barca con fry groundnut for the champions league. U think Madrid go qualify against athletic for their house. Plenty good team still dey. Barca, bayern, psg even dotmund

Omo this alvarez na beast. See solo goal. I no know who advised guardiola to sell him con use money buy China version of alvarez with bigger amount. If alvarez dey that team, man city no fit dey collect woto woto this season

Na savinho finish Man city. Very useless player. Pass ball Na primary school ball he go dey play. Dey suppose even beat them self

Omo Barca dey show Madrid say no be by buying all the classy players. See flogging twice in a space of 3months. This Madrid Na Barca wife. Any time they dey give Madrid doggy

Na my coworker bring it to the ward. God bless you Divine

BigDawsNet:
Bro, abroad is not so bed of 🌹 and it’s not always greener at their side… but I agree with you… abroad has lots of advantages than Nigeria or Africa as a whole…

One secret about japa is that if our Naira appreciates today like $1 to #100. I can tell you for fact.. many people will return back to Nigeria…

But whatever you do, if you hav a link or u get the opportunity, pls leave…

Abroad will not make you a millionaire but it will really change your destiny to something worthwhile

I really do not like to discourage or encourage anybody about Japa especially to the UK. The truth is the UK is still far better than any top in Nigeria except if U are a politician. U may start with menial jobs to pay Ur rent and bills but with time U should be able to move to bigger things. I think the problem with many Nigerians is that their expectations on Japa is too much. U can't get the money U spent in one month. U will meet difficult times but U will prevail with determination. But U see Nigeria one thing or the other will frustrate U especially the government. Government that is fast to increase fuel price but took several months to add 30k to staffs salary. If Una likes Japa if Una likes no Japa. Stay until one tears from right eyes enter left
