#PORTRAITS_OF_SHAME _

In the market of Bwari, you find a poor woman with a baby at her back, you lower your car window and with a military abs rough command voice you asked her:

"How much are you selling those onions and bananas? " The poor seller politely replies,
"#1,500 for a bunch of bananas and # 1,000 a pack of onions." With pride you demand the bunch of bananas at #800 and the the pack of onions at # 700 or else you will leave.

The poor seller resigns to fate and replies, "take them at the price you want. I have not made any sale today, at least I have something for supper now."

She has made a loss but she goes further to buy a plastic bag for you to pack two items you have bought. You order her to hurry up otherwise you may change your mind. She apologises and with a smile, she gives you the items and she blesses you for promoting her.

You literally throw the money at her and you speed away leaving behind a cloud of smoke and dust which cause a bit of discomfort to her and the baby. She is coughing while securing her little money. Her poverty has left her with no choice.

You have now arrived at the 5-star hotel (Pyramid Continental) where you are to meet friends and you ask them to order food and drinks of their choice. They order expensive food and the leftovers are more than the food they have eaten.

The total bill is # 65,000 and you pay without bargaining, you give a tip of #6,000 appreciating the waiter for a delicious meal which you didn't eat even half of it.

This incident might seem quite normal to you but it's inhumane...

THE POINT IS:-�

Why do we always show that we have bargaining power when we buy from the poor?

Why do we become arrogant when buying from the poor?

Why do we become stingy when buying from the vulnerable?

Why do we show generosity to those who do not even need our generosity?

Why do we become polite when buying from the rich who view our money as mere change?

Why do we channel money to a sea of money?

Please buy simple goods from poor people at high prices.

Sometimes pay extra for the items you buy from poor women.

#Please where possible buy items from local markets.

Please to all my beloved fans please everytime you see them in Taxi parks,streets,just buy! Don't bargain. They are not looking for money to buy expensive clothes or mansions or cars, but to feed their children back home and pay school fees.

�WE ARE FEELING YOUR PAIN�

Good points you made dear ,and i am an advocate of your kind words and advice.But let me give you my scenario.

I use Sensodyne whitening toothpaste,which i have a pharmacy where i always buy it,but on this very sunny day at Apongbon near UBA headquarters in Lagos island,i saw this woman hawking toothbrushes and tooth paste ,with a baby at her back,i mean it was really sunny .

I asked if she had Sensodyne ,she said yes,i helped her put down her wares , and out of pity bought 3 packs from her at 1k each ,the Original price at that time was 650.

After some days,when i exhausted the old paste i had,and opened the new ones i bought from the woman that day,i opened it ,took some and lo and behold ,the content wasnt Sensodyne,but one useless tooth paste called Maxam.

This is one in a million occurrence, therefore allow people live their lives the way they want.Even Superman cant save everybody.

Caprini1, I'm still waiting for you o

Nnem ,i didnt forget you o...just came back from anaedo...message me .

ADUBA1:
This what happens when health workers are selling vaccine cards to non vaccinated people

You are right o...i went to buy some drugs in a pharmacy ,when i was about to enter my car a young man approached me ,and asked if i needed a covid 19 vaccine card ,that it is for 70k ,i just politely told him off.

kenzysmith:
I met this guy at Accra, he was sitting at a sit close to lambadi beach I went close to him guy brought out a peck knife n threaten me with it that is when I knew this guy is a physico

Well...when we met at the mall ,i just hailed him ,Hank my guy i love u men and he hailed back and we hugged.....hope its the same Hank you saw,abi those drug addicts at labadi beach?

Congratulations Whitemoney.


Next year we move and make another millionaire.

I said in the beginning of this thread,Nigerians decide who to bless ,no trolling,vote buying, body shaming,decampaigning can stop it.

Gbegirsoup:
Congratulations Whitemonkey!

Laycon remains the GOAT

Go and rest,abeg!

What a football fest we are having this year,Real Madrid vs Sherriff, Brentford vs Liverpool,now Liverpool vs Man City.....it can only get better.

AutoChick4U:
This BBN should end so you all should realize that your president is selling off the future of our generations to come.

I doubt China would be where they are if their grown adults immersed themselves in prattling over tv shows

China is not all about structures and technology, they have even more addictive TV entertainment,than we do.Let us live in love and appreciate our own.BBN is not the reason Nigeria is not restructured to work..... at least those that watch BBN knows a couple of youths will be removed from poverty,by the show and it has much more integrity than our political system.

I am a Proud igbo boy,with the western hussle and the hausa mix.

Whitemoney 2021.

Na wa o,Pere wan japa to yankee if the week is not busy on Wednesday or thursday ,but if busy ,then weekend it is .Bros is really exhausted.

Eeghe:
What vileness is this?
Shame on you, and your whole post, forever.
The bolded has shown me how much of a gutter mind that you have. It’s a reminder to never interact here with you again.
Yikes!

Are you just knowing ?

andrewbaba44:
Must they always try to give expo ?

To get some cuts and form fake friendship after today na,all na hussle.

Beorn:
Queen didn't ignore Mazi. They exchanged glances and she smiled and danced, but she wasn't too expressive with joy because of the instructions from the production crew probably.

Queen,Saskay ,Peace,Tega and Michael actually did well in keeping away from the finalists,others in one way or the other tried to give expo.

Giel:
JMk has a nice smile that just brightens up her face and makes her look cuter.
I love her smile.

You have seen what i saw . JMK omalicha nwa.

NLbabygirl:
To top it all , they decided to get the worst Dj ever. Instead of making tonight the hottest party
They should have brought Dj wysei

Dj Wysei is in Abuja for a show as we speak.

Sechee:
Why is my Queen not happy

Warning from Biggie not to give Whitemoney expo,i am sure .

My J. M. K

nazablossom:
Voting line is closed already, why would he act for camera

As in ehn....some people are just naturally bitter over Whitemoney.The guy is jus a nice guy ,its inborn,when strong women train you.

JavaScript90:
Just restructure the country,obey federal character, prosecute criminals irrespective of their tribe and Nigerians will automatically unite.

Very easy o......but the people in government kept going round in circles,meaning they have other plans?

babyfaceafrica:
Wait you mean churches and mosques are better than therapies?

In general ,i mean how many Nigerians can afford therapy? But in churches,it is free(counselling).

babyfaceafrica:
Lolz... She has passed through Volcano before, you want her to pass fire again?.. Chai, I just feel pity for her future husband

She will be fine biko! Is she better than those young girls ,that never knew their fathers,ended up hawking everything on the streets of Lagos island,got beaten,robbed and raped.Yet they dust off all these terrible pasts,one way or the other ,gets through in life,becomes a top society Lagos Island gold dealer ,married with children.

Also a poor Igbo boy is taken from his family at age 13 to do boy boy (apprenticeship) with a rich man in Lagos. He definitely will go through a lot of trauma,but the end justifies the awful beginning.

I think we most times forget we are Africans,too much movies and novels have affected our thinking. We dont go for therapies here,but Churches and Mosques,which is somehow helpful.

Angel should be grateful she found herself in the BBN house and will definitely make something good out of her life. All this tantrums and mental what not have you bull crap she is always yapping is just for the show and camera,even in the toilet,she is looking at the camera.

warlordd:
Quite unfortunate! The Igbos now obey, respect and take orders from criminals more than constituted authorities. Sad!

Constituted authorities that have not been able to fix an ordinary 30 minutes drive express road connecting Enugu and Onitsha?

staga:
I lived there for 2 years. You know what they call silent poison? That is what most Ghanaians I have met are. I have been refused a sale in a shop simply because I was a Nigerian. One of my guys had equivalent of N300,000 stolen by a Ghanaian couple, who then reported to their police that the guy was threatening them. We used some serious strong arm methods to recover that money.

If you are a Nigerian living in Ghana or planning to go to Ghana, please be very wise. It was their extortionist $150 charge for rapid COVID test at the airport (when Sierra Leone was charging $80) that forced a serious complaint at ECOWAS level before a uniform charge for ECOWAS citizens of $50 was mandated.

Nigerian students are the ones propping up their educational system as all fees are paid in US dollars.

Left to me, Ghana should be kicked out of ECOWAS and left on their own. Let them start requiring visas of everyone and let everyone also require visas of them. Let us see how they survive.

The best thing that happened to me was when the project that took me there concluded in 18 months ,instead of the estimated 2years,i left there like Ben Johnson on Steroids.Overrated piece of crap of a country.

staga:
Try looking for a house in Ghana, then you will know they are the worst of the worst.

I lived and worked in Ghana ,they have very nice people too,but mostly women....but most of their men are devils in disguise.I lived in a bungalow of two flats ,just me and my landlord, when i travel to Nigeria , this man will go through the ceiling and steal from my apartment,he even steals from my car.If i forget to buy gifts for him from my travels,he keeps malice.

Senseii:
Are u a patriot?

E concern u ?

What is a patriot?

doyin01:
If you watched the conversation you won't be saying this....or you just intentionally want to troll...

BBN show apart, Whitemoney definitely did something terrible to Threebear, because this is not the bear i,ve known on this forum over the years,dude is so versatile and loaded with knowledge and clean jokes,but these days ,naaaa!

Beorn:
Cross said his name is Ikechukwu Sunday Cross Okonkwo.

Whitemoney reveals his igbo name is Onyeze, his English name is Hazel and the name his mum gave him is Ikechukwu (same as Cross').


He's really opening up.

He mentioned it to Pere ,Cross,Boma and some other HM,s the day they were reconciling,after the belt issue.

I just cant understand how a single person will come here and claim he/she gave their fav 25000 votes,and yet we see percentages as low as 24.Why cant people just cast their 100 votes and hope for the best?

FIGARO00:


I didn't receive such message.

What are these ppl trying to do na?

I did,just forgot to take a picture...because ,once you read,it vanishes.

FIGARO00:
Yes.

Some even deleted the app and downloaded again.

We tried some many things that yesterday.

At a point, I even concluded that voting has ended...

Still dont know why dstv sent a message to my decoder yesterday ,that voting ends that same yesterday.

It seems our Presido is a BBN fan,for lifting twitter ban,just for today

zicoraads:
Just gave WM all my votes, I wish him the very best on Sunday. And I wish all the HM's who graced this season's the very best. The most difficult task is to build on the platform that the show has offered. Will be cheering for and hoping they all make it.

Best comment this week.
