This one get sense, na slave na.

Congrats

Kingsley2001:
Good afternoon.
I have been a guest for long, decided to create an account as I need the help of everyone.

I am a 19-yearold boy and I am currently in my third year in a federal university studying a 6-7-year course.
I recently lost my Dad who was a diligent civil servant and a very great Dad until his demise.
While he was on his deathbed, I was with him all through as school was on break and being the oldest too. We were at the hospital one night when he started entrusting me with some of his assets. He owned two accounts known to me and mother and we have exhausted all the money on him while he was very sick.
The night we talked which was few days to his death, he told me he won't survive the sickness and he asked me to accept it in good faith and that we should stop wasting our resources on him. The words were very heartbreaking but there was nothing I could do. That same night he told me of three thrifts he was involved in, his contributions totalled #675,000. He reiterated how we should not waste the money on his treatment as he was sure he won't make it.
I didn't tell mum of his instruction, we collected the money and we offset the bills needed for his other surgery and some other things.
My Dad although weak and frail still managed to express his anger and I tried letting him know it was impossible to watch him die without doing anything. After all said, done and spent, we lost him. A night before his final death, he told me four digits repeatedly but didn't tell me what they were for. This was on early December last year.
We accepted the loss in good faith and continued with our life. My mum on the other hand is a government teacher and I have two other siblings. One in her 100L while the last born is still looking for admission.
While we were at the hospital, my Dad gave me his purse a little bigger than the common ones and it has been with me since then.
Just this week, I just went through the purse and I found another ATM card, out of curiosity I went to check the balance but the password was incorrect.
I tried the number he gave me and God so good it worked.
The balance shows; Savings- #1,238,006.84.
And Future: 18,244.30.
I was surprised at what I saw.
I ran home to tell mom about it and we agreed we would keep the money till I am done with school. She asked me to keep the card but I declined and asked her to keep it instead knowing how such money can influence me to make irrational decisions.
I also told her leaving the money there won't be of benefit to us as in years time the money would have lost its value.
I told her I will come up with a good business plan and she agreed. I have no idea the kind of business to venture into as my course in school is very time-demanding same with my junior sister's. And the last born is still young to handle business.
Please what business can I do with this money? That won't be wasted and will be flexible enough to manage with my academics. Mind you, I'm studying MBBS the same with my sister. And my mum is not good with business at all. Every one of us knows.

Please help me and please no private messages, all advice should be posted on here.
Thanks.

May his soul rest in peace.

Don't bother investing in businesses you can't monitor properly.

Naira is fast losing value, the best bet is to convert your money into foreign currency and lock it up.

When you are done with school or finally ready to focus on any business in the future the stashed money won't lose value.

Imagine someone that stashed dollars at the rate of 350+/$1 in 2019. The value now is 440+/$1. + interest.

If you stash it now and in 4 or 5yrs when naira is 1000/$1. You won't lose the value of your money and may decide on what to invest it on.

Damage control.

No need to seek forgiveness.

Jonathan was too naive to think Nigeria first.

If he was half wicked as Buhari, he would've served his second term kulele.

The best way to serve this nation is to be arrogantly tribalistic and rigid. Surround yourself with your tribes men, let every head of security agencies be your tribes men and learn how to silence opposition with total disregard to the rule of law.

We only know how to make noise on social media but we fear die.

MrOjay1:
i have always thought it was the yorubas(the ones living in Lagos) that first came in contact with the Europeans.

And the Europeans also lived long in YorubaLand(Lagos) before permeating other regions.

They stayed long enough in Lagos to establish the first mission school(Badagry and CMS)...so why weren't their surnames influenced?

Nah the Europeans touched most Nigeria coastal States the same time.

Some Lagosians bears Taylor, Savage, Souza and more as surnames.

The Itsekiris too bears Donmigos as surnames.

Same as the Efik/Calabar/River axis.

Only the very proud ones didn't change or corrupt their surnames to sound European.

Not be only him go chop am na.

My pretty sister.

Don't worry you and your husband will govern Edo State 2024.

By then ur husband and Oshiomole go don quarrel cos he will be of no.political significance.

The fight is not between APC and PDP, neither is it between Obaseki and Ize-Iyamu but against godfatherism which is Oshiomole.

Whoever Oshiomole supports MUST lose this election for peace to reign in Edo state.

dokyOloye:
Word on the street is this dundee united governor in Ogun is just moving about like a headless chicken,no project,no salary,no nothing.
But you will never see a sentence against him by nairaland Islamabad crew.
Why? = Cos he is making returns to bourdillon.

But they will never allow Akeredolu, Makinde,Fayemi etc rest.

Why=cos they're not under d anointing of bourdillon.

They all have Stockholm syndrome, they get turn on when they are oppressed and enjoy prostrating and rankadeding to their oppressors.

Nigerians na wah!!!

This won't change anything.

Oshiomole and car crash.

It was self defense.

That's how should be. The South West NUJ are not complaining or planning to form a parallel body.

But those Stockholm people are all calling for the head of NBA.

Banza!!!

That boy was liable for that girl's death.

It's apparent he is sheltering his accomplices and attempting to rope in his adversaries.

"Why are the poor and oppressed always excited to tear down anyone questioning their oppressors? �"

stormborn28:
i no wan obey the rules so that I no go miss the fun.... ....come closer

Promise me you won't fart.

Ortom my man.

Nothing can justify the invasion of a gathering of unarmed youths.

If any security agent was killed then it was well deserved because it was done in self-defense.

You make peace with bandits who are stealing our natural resources(gold) and attack those who are unarmed because of a presumption fear of uncertainty.

My condolence to those innocent youths killed and the Nigerian govt should know that one day is one day these people will fight back tooth and nail.

Wey all the mannerless dead dog meat seller rice is in kano crew?

Some idiots are looking for the full text.

If he was quoted out of context did he refute it?

You morons should have outgrown your stupidity by now of prostrating to your oppressor and trying to defend the indefensible.

Tinubu in his full senses made that statement when he was outside and I'll say it again when APC loses power.

My question is what is the difference between Tinubu and Namdi Kanu?

Very true.

Apt!!!

Na una Sabi.

The only reason the IPOBs are being attacked unprovoked is that they don't carry arms.

Can the police and DSS try this to the Fulani herdsmen?

2023 is around the corner and Buhari has set a bad precedent.

I can't wait for this election to be over.

It's turning families against each other.

Fawklicant:
This is so childish. You need to do better. Debunk the claims if you can with references and proofs. Everything is not about your emotions.

Ignore that slowpoke. He knows nothing aside making silly comments that a 2yrs old can't even comprehend.
