Celebrities › Re: Get Married, Pursue Phd Or Leave My House By 27 – Kanayo Tells Daughter by BTCog: 1:48pm On Apr 11, 2025

Kobicove:
This man just put his daughter under unnecessary pressure with this statement

Well, I don't think there's any pressure there. The best option is to pursue all the options at the same time all within the limits she can control. I were her, I would go for my PHD immediately knowing that my Dad is ready to sponsor me and while at that, I would intensify career or skills that will enhance my independence. If marriage comes, good; if not, I will keep working on getting a good job that will help me to be independent.

This is just very unfortunate. It's very unnecessary trying to find which tribe the victims are from. It is a very big loss to their families and dependents. This will cause the securities at the airport to start giving us unnecessary attention at the airports. I wonder who advised them to try such a suicide mission. Just last month, the Saudi Govt executed about 100 persons from different Nationalities.

200 billion in the mud. I have your thinking. This money for flyover will build industry that can swallow 5 to 10k indigenes but they prefer to build rubbush.

Go and seat down. I live Rivers State. It's a massive project. If you build industries without roads, how will they thrive. If Government can give us good roads, regular electric power, good education, good security and good economic policies then, we can can build the industries by ourselves. Building of industries is not a primary responsibility of the government

Foreign Affairs › Re: Iran’s President Says He’s Prepared To Ease Tensions With Israel. by BTCog: 6:58am On Sep 25, 2024

Creamcrest:
Some of you isreal ass lickers should not see this as a sign of weakness of the great Islamic republic of iran.

Pezeshkian is just a moderate who believes in diplomacy to resolve issues.

Iran will defeat isreal on a one on one confrontation without the help of allies.

The nation of iran has grown stronger despite several years of continuous sanctions by the entire Europe.

I doff my hat for this great nation of iran.

Why not allow them to continue. You can't tell if some of the gadgets they using in Iran especially for their nuclear plant is not already bugged by Israel, only waiting to be triggered. Israel knows their enemies and they usually use the time of peace or stalemate to prepare for war. Israel has already packaged the Iranian own long ago, only waiting to deliver it. What do you think happened when 6 Arabic nations planned to annihilate Israel only for them to be defeated before the war started. Every Israeli citizen is a soldier. If you don't respect Israel, please respect the God of Israel

Sometimes, I wonder how women reason. My wife has my ATM card and I don't query the withdrawals she makes as long as they for house upkeep. For every major expense including her shop rent I do the transfers accordingly. However, despite all these, she came up with a demand for monthly pay. I had to shun her with every anger in me. Ladies, please keep to what is working for your home and stop copying everything you see on social media. You can turn that same lovely guy to a lion overnight, if you don't take care.

Good decision. However, make enquiries to find a good school with with good discipline not these schools that pay millions for children in nursery school.

Meanwhile, though I have an opportunity of taking my family abroad but I have refused my wife's persuasions. My children will only go for their masters or second degree abroad, not now please. I don't want to lose all that I have toiled for.

Family › Re: Advise, My Father Sold His House And Moved To The Village Now He Wants To Leave by BTCog: 6:23pm On Jan 27, 2024

Don't allow his pride control you or ruin you. Please, forget about what your cousins or anyone will say and do what is convenient for you. He sold his property and moved to village because he felt age was no longer on his side. Let him remain in the village. Open a business for him and get a sales girl to work for him. Whenever he is bored, he can come to city and visit you. He had too much time to gossip in the village because he was idle.
If you spend 1M to get a 3-bedroom flat for him, you will still be spending 500k monthly to feed him take care of his responsibilities but if you open a business for him, he will take care of himself.

Travel › Re: My Flight Has A Stopover At Dublin, Do I Need A Transit Visa? by BTCog: 6:21pm On Jul 21, 2023

elloso:
Hello fam.
I will be traveling to the UK soon (Scotland precisely) and I intend to book a flight (Turkish Airline) that has a stopover at Istanbul and Dublin.
Do I need a transit visa to go through Dublin?

Please I really need your reply 🙏

No, you don't. Even if you are sleeping over, the airline should take charge. Just follow instructions. The airport staff will be there directing you to the connecting flight route. Just present your passport and tickets and you will be directed to where to board the next flight. For stopovers that require sleeping over, you will need to get the hotel details from the first Airport.

Career › Re: Injustice At Workplace; Should I Resign Or Hang On? by BTCog: 2:39pm On Jul 20, 2023

LithiumSupplier:
1. I work in a project development company.

2. I am at the assistant manager level.

3. I do most of the work; from designing and maintaining company's websites, to clerical works such document preparation, oversee environmental consulting jobs, to troubleshooting company's systems and many more.

4. The problem is that the company does not appreciate all my efforts. They push every blame on me.

The owner and his son are just so inconsiderate. For example, I was working on a project that required attachment of some sensitive documents.

Once it was time, I requested for the documents from the owner, instead he provided me with different documents entirely. Many times, he will shout at me for asking questions. So I assumed that he didn't want the documents out in the public.

While reviewing my work, the owner was okay with the attached documents until he decided to make presentation with the work to prospects.

As soon as the prospects registered dissatisfaction with the out of place documents (So to say), he called and started blasting me on the phone, calling me stup!d and stuff. He would always let me take the fall for his own mistakes all the time.

His son on the other hand is just too empty and overbearing. His father would always ask him to supervise any project I'm working on.
He would okay many things and I can't say otherwise.

When we present the project to his father and the father decides to query any part of the things which he okayed earlier, he will push all the blames on me and the father will call to nag and lambast me for things I know nothing about.

This has been going on for like 3 years now.

My regret was that I turned down an offer from a small oil company in Lagos last year and early this year too.

My current pay is 300,000 NGN without accommodation, while the Lagos' was 350,000 NGN with accommodation.

I'm currently in Abuja. I was scared of the traffic in Lagos.

I really don't know what to do anymore...

This issue is affecting my mental health.

This guy talks down on me anyhow without respect.

This is a guy that can't properly put together a common letter.

As plan B, I have set up two blogs and Google just approved Adsense application on one, while I'm working on the other one.
I have also set up Facebook pages and have grown to over 232,000 active followers.

I am also an environmental consultant with over 15 years experience, I also major in GIS and I design websites too.

I am married with 2 kids. What should I do?

The signs show that your time is up. However, you will need to prepare your grounds before you quit. Good luck! I worked in a company that I practically carried the company on my head like my father's business. I sponsored my trainings but all I got was "thank you for the good job" and never a financial compensation. Sometimes, I supervised operations where I was the least paid. I endured all until I got an offer outside the country. Everybody was confused and the big boss wanted to give me a better offer but it was too late. Well I still support them remotely so that the company doesn't collapse.
