Sad. Very sad.

Who will redeem our NPF? Or are they truly irredeemable?

Sisiedo:
If really you mange people as stated in your last paragraph, I believe you don't allow your emotions to cloud your judgement. Meditate on that. Peace!

You consulted on the www for advise; you got some and your ego won't let you focus that these people giving you free advice are not, in your parlance, emotionally attached to your situation.

I bring words, not war. But if you want to focus on me other than your issue, you are barking the wrong tree.

Wash.

Worst case scenario: You will loss your job and you have vindicated your organization by 'claiming responsibility' for that mix-up. Perfect excuse to excuse an arrogant staff. Except you are not known for errors and are loved by the power brokers.

Otherwise they are just threatening you, especially if you are the kind with padded shoulders. Thank your stars you didn't credit wrong accounts or double-pay your colleagues.

I opine that you honestly acknowledge your error and be a little more agreeable, especially with your superiors as your writing makes you cut across like an arrogant and pompous staff.

I am neither a lawyer nor an accountant but I manage dozens of people and I know errors happen. What happens next is usually your reactions after the error.

Good luck.

My problem with Siena?

Too serious to be a Nigerian.

hollandis:
Uwazurike is not a spokes man for we igbos. he is an unknown entity that has lost its value

With a spokesperson like Nnamdi Kanu who needs enemies.

Ioannes:
I dare say that Igbos have a better chance at achieving Biafra if led by Nwazuruike than if led by Nnamdi Kanu.

Have you ever heard Kanu talk?

Even a deluded minor wouldn't want someone like that in his team let talk of leading.

I am still wondering at what makes him appealing.

Scout60:
am tired of 100 years of mismanagement of resources

This question remains unanswered.

You mean other peoples of Nigeria are mismanaging the Federal resources but the South-Eastern leaders particularly are not?

Scout60:
because we are tired of 100 years of unfruitful journey

Do you honestly feel set back by the [in]actions of other Nigerians, actions peculiar to other peoples other than the Igbos of Nigeria?

I am honestly seeking the truth.

contactmorak:
Sad. Should this be happening at all? Why is there a government?

The international media will soon lay hands on this picture and boom!

Thanks you so much everyone.

A friend and brother (who I didn't know was on Nairaland) saw this post and advised me to deactivate security settings on a desktop mode.

And did that and pronto!

Again, many thanks everyone and especially Bigtt76.

The question I ask our Igbo brothers:

Why do you want Biafra now?

I am still to have a convincing response.

Like the poster above me said, you have seen success and you are bored.

You seem to have conquered all but sex self. The cure for sex is sex. Have plenty of it.

Now addiction is crazy stuff.

I don't want to assume that you don't have a wife, so I won't want to go all morals and philosophical about infidelity Get a crazy partner- or get your partner crazy and f like rabbits. Repeat process. Repeat process. Repeat process.

And see it as won. Oncve your mind processes it as another trophy, your quest should switch to another thing.

Finally, I understand the feeling of 'untrueness' about the things they say in church. Interestingly, you can begin to search for the truth yourself by studying the Bible and seeking to answer the question about God.

All the best.

Low self esteem.

You want to be a 'side chic' fasting and praying that the bf breaks her heart so you can become number 1.

Keep her as a friend and look for your lover elsewhere.

Anyone who knows much about this company should help me out if it's worth going for as my location is far from the company.... Knowledge about their pay structure especially for the above-stated position would be highly appreciated...... Thanks and God bless

Sorry o, but you and sister Google never settle?

Even though you fell short of saying it, it looks safe to infer that he exercises brute physical force on you too. Poor you.

Too, I am sure he has his own version of this story but I believe you are certainly unhappy.

Now, that is the angle I want to focus on: your happiness.

NO ONE is paid to make you happy, no, not even your best comedians. It is your responsibility to make yourself so. Hard to grasp as it may be, if being separated is what will give you happiness, you must keep that option alive.

'Your man' is no doubt insecure. That is his headache (maybe if he creates a thread here asking for help about that, we can see to it).

Stop fighting and struggling to prove a point. Just ignore them as if they don't exist. Let them see you as happy; start talking to old friends, make new friends, even when you are not going anywhere, 'baff' up, smell good, chat on whatsapp with friends, ... Come alive! Stop whining! Stop looking at the odds- see the chances. Shower your children with love not bitterness and slowly brace for an exit plan.

'pasan t'afi nayale wa laja'

Why is this news? As if we are alien to good deeds!

It is actually the bad ones amongst us that spoil our good name.

Godd bless you man. And may your mum- and mine mum- find help in unlikely places.

The Boko Haram crisis is no doubt a spiritual crusade.

richidinho:

"Since Ajala wouldn't want me to travel too,I Better go à fishing.. When it's time to go to Maiduguri they will send me. When it's time to defend campaign promises,they will send me (because i speak better english). When it's time to go for local campaigns in kogi,they will send me. Am I allergic to Foreign trips and estacodes?"

Oh boy!

Ah a.

That is excellence.

All manner of creative crimes.

Why didn't they just trsf the skills to something legitimate.

Too many curses always have dire consequences.

Jforce, I'd like a >14" 2GRAM 500G laptop with a N50k budget.

The knowing of the pudding is in the eating.

Bookmarked

Ok o.

I work with a very wonderful organization and as my job demands, one of my very crucial academic meetings is always held outside Nigeria.

I am also married with a 1yr 11 month old son and pregnant (few weeks gone).... My husband works and lives in a town that is 4hours away from Lagos where I work.

The need for a house help arose when morning sickness started. So I told a lot of people in the office that I needed a girl. Luckily one of the staff told me she could help me send down her half sister who is 15years old and her mum can no longer carter for because they are poor. She said she's also with the girl's elder sister.

I spoke with the girl's mum, she was so excited and prayed for me and all she requested was for her girl to go to school. I promised her that the girl would go to school. The girl was brought to me on 19th October.

So I went in search of a school and I was lucky she was admited into a Lagos State Government School that is close by. The principal said that it was late actually but she doesn't want the girl to be idle at home, so she could resume immediately but her academic session would be from January. I paid all d fees and got her two sets of uniform. She started school early this month.

My son has also started school, so she drops him in school and picks him up when she's back too.

Fast forward to this time, d official assignment that would take me away from the country was close. I couldn't risk leaving her in Lagos with my super active toddler for almost two weeks that I would be away. I had to take them to my husband.

Early on Thursday, 19th, I received a call that my girl had left home with her belongings and she left a note that she was angry with me that I did not let her go to school and that if not that she loved my son ehn.....

My husband's job is a shift- based job and he was on night duty to be back home by 8am the morning she left.

A neighbour called my husband who was at work that the girl took my son to them very early in d morning that we sent her on an errand and that they should borrow her N500. They took my son from her and told her to wait for my husband to return. They said they did not know when she left.

The girl scattered the whole house took all the pieces of meat in d pot, the juice packs at home. I Knew she wouldn't get money, my husband isn't as careless.

My husband spoke with her mum that didn't sound surprised and all she said was that she would scold her when the girl comes home. Yes, d girl is home now.

I was devastated and destabilized for two days. I never ever maltreated this girl. My conscience is as clear as a gallon of distilled water.

Well, my son is now with my mum.

My mum also spoke with her mum that the girl said neighbors were calling her omo-odo (house girl). She left the 6th day she got there. We stay in a compound of 5 flats where everyone minds his business. So who called her a house-girl.

I think the mistake we made was that we got her a phone and even loaded the phone. My husband said he noticed she was always calling someone and he once heard her telling the receiver the address of where she was.

I really wish to visit her mum when I return and I hope to see her and ask her questions.

I really appreciate my family for staying with me throughout this period and I'm glad I'm not hypertensive maybe I'd have lost this pregnancy. And I thank God most that she didn't hurt my son because I never hurt her.

Well, it's all good. Life goes on.

I am not trying to discourage people from getting house helps....

Well, this is your version of the story.

By this report I still have blames for you still. The girl was right by calling off the contract. -you agreed she would be going to school in Lagos, so why was she to be trsfd off Lagos and school without holding a proper conversation with her?

All the best, lady. Invite us for chicken when cutie arrives. Cheers.

May their souls rest in peace.

I am aware of an Igbo adage that says when the coffin is not of one of our ownn we consider it mere wooden panels; but when the content is of ours, we truly know.

May we be spared by His grace.

BTW, I prefer the way this caption puts it "Murder", because that is what it is.

No be so o

Same plumage.

Hurry, how far?
