WeirdAlien:
Would you tell us your major motivation for joining the force??
That would determine if we'd pray for you or swear for you.

Is it right to split your tithe to different parishes if you don't want your parish to know how much you're earning? Will it still cumulate as tithe?

Is this a wrong or deceptive move?

What if you put it in a blank evelop without writing your name on it and all?

Hmmmm! People dey chop things!!

SmartPolician:
If Tinubu could govern the richest state in Nigeria and his biggest achievement was leaving behind a plan for his successors, nobody should expect anything from him.

I live in Lagos, but I thank God I work remotely and online too. Before now, I'd budget 11k for 50-litre PMS for my gen per month. Now, 12k cannot even fill a 25-litre Jerry can. However, electricity has significantly improved - probably because we are in rainy season.

Hello, please how can I get remote jobs if you can send a mail or reply here I don't mind. I'm tired of Lagos traffic, stress and high cost of transportation.

Thanks in advance

Oooooomo! Oooooommmmmmmmmoooooooo!
I can't Atikulate this bulabaa where can I go and verify?

My mother is furious that I don't want to come over to the UK.
This month my younger sister left for UK and it's remaining me.
Documents and all papers are right and after couple family intervention I decided to go for interview.
I really didn't want to go to Uk
I love my life here in Nigeria tho things are hard.. it's still my home
I feel more connected to my father's land.
Going to abroad is not my plan. My mother thinks I'm possessed by spirit that want me to not succeed.
My uncles have pleaded with me to go and join my mum and sis in UK.

I was given UK visa last year, refused to join my sister that traveled this May

honestly I don't want to move to Uk.
I know how hard life can be in 9ja but i still love this country.
Mumsi says she is really dissapoinmented in me for staying back.
Did I do anything wrong?

Me: Kachi?
Kachi: Oga sirrrrr!
Me: Bring me original Oraimo cord there.....fast! Add 2 by 2 and horse whip

phorget:
Can your mum adopt me so as to replace yourself? Help me to ask her please.

Lolz wetin be this !

MrXhime:
Hmmm.. let's just be careful sha.. policemen are crazy sometimes. He might lose his job. I remember the day I videoed a policeman beating a mechanic after the mechanic refused to bribe him cuz he was asking for the reciept of the headlight of a car the guy was carrying for repair. Imagine!

I was begged, Asin begged before I deleted it. they gave the mechanic some money to take care of himself. If I had posted this on twitter..I no the man will lose his job.. His family will be affected. Any sha..

What if the mechanic had lost his life, what if he was permanently injured?

I must say as someone who has stayed in both the northern and southern parts of Naija, northerners are less boastful and will hardly showoff even when under pressure. They live a quiet, simple and stress free life but are very intelligent, honest and many are very rich regardless of religion. They're are also respectful, united and know how to catch cruise as you can see from their reply.

The thing is just because people don't talk about their achievements doesn't mean they got nothing going on.

I remember using this Nokia asha 200 OMO
I actually bought it then as a secondhand phone after I lost my blackberry bold 4.
I was so happy when I bought the phone for #1800
OMO how sweet was life back then .
It started hanging then buttons started pulling off later it got speaker issues then mouth piece issues, then the Nokia battery began to spoil
omo o vex throway the phone.

Which of these did you use and how did you buy it and how did they get spoilt ?

You're a grand pa sir lol. Those phones look so old and unreal 😯 how were person even able to type then

I wanna ask if you both never talked about stuffs like this before you both got married?

Anyways I think it's important you both see yourselves as one in everything even in the financial aspect of your marriage, the reason is it is going to be a lot easier financially if you both agree on something and once there's a good understanding on what you both want to do to have a financially stress free life then the though of "my money our money and my money my money" will vanish.

The earlier you have a good and clear discussion about your financial plans as a couple the better.

My conscience is judging me.

A woman that i sometimes patronize left a kid to watch her shop. I wanted to buy rice. I ask him for the price because the price do flunctuate, which he said it is 100, no 50, no 20 naira. I shock, then the devil enter me and i said whether e no go sell 10. I told him to sell me 5cup of rice, after he measured and tied it, i gave him 100 and told him to take the remaining 50 and not to tell the woman so that she will not collect his 50 tip.

Kid was happy, i was happy, trader lose.

Now this evening, rice no let me eat, i am just thinking of going back to do restitution.

How do i go about it without the trader getting angry?

Do the right thing. It shows you have integrity and honour, rare virtues many wish for.

IntelChief:
My elder sister is around 32 years and still not serious with marriage. Her only focus is on making money and she had been very successful in that aspect. She has a well paying job and is not only comfortable but also supports me financially sometimes.

But I just can't imagine why she is not disturbed about the fact that she is still single at her age. A lot of guys I know had been approaching her but she never accepts even a relationship offer from them, talk more of marriage. (And am very sure that she is not a lesbian or any of that).

As a church guy, I have seen a lot of women stock in this not being married thing and jumping from one church to the other seeking for husbands. Some of them, out of desperation, fall victims in the hands of fake pastors and sharp guys. I really don't want my sister to go through such.

Initially, I wasn't disturbed, but right now, this issue is burning not only me but also my aging mother. My mother had even stylishly urged my sister to go get married on several occasions. But she won't.

What really got me mad was when I was discussing with my sister some days back about her future plans. She told me stuffs like planning on travelling abroad for greener pastures, bla bla bla, but made no mention of marriage.

Honestly guys, I am tired. And as a man in the family, I am thinking of changing it for my sister. Am planning on threatening her that if she doesn't take the issue of marriage serious, I will go physical with her and teach her some lessons. But the issue is that she is my elder sister and I have some respect for her. And my action might end up affecting the bond in the family.

Hello there, it's normal to feel concerned for those you care about and I'm gonna be honest with you I think it's great but talking about getting physical with your sister because she isn't married or talking about it isn't clear at all. With all due respect sir, there are over a thousand ways you can talk to her about it in a matured way and try to understand her view. Remember while so many especially in the country see marriage as the proof of success and all not all both men and women see it that way.

I don't think you can make a calendar for your sister's life. The best you can do is talk and ensure you hear her out as well but in all never get to the point of getting physically violent where it will affect your bond as a family and that won't be nice

Jacketaltrade:
I was about taking tea this morning, when i asked my self a question cause it seems the size of my bread is reduced. Then what is the best bread in nigeria and how much does it cost? From my take it would be VALUE bread in lagos, #500.

Uhmmmm actually, if you read this question fundamentally, precisely speaking I have personly realized that bread and tea are now even more and more economically.... because the inflation and taxation of the renumeration.
Sorry what are we talking about again??!

This is weird, it's a shame for a parent not to know their child's birthday, I hear most people saying this particular thing.


Your parent are responsible for this, ask them.

Before you rush to comment, read.

Learners OR not, good thing is that I escaped that situation and learnt not to follow that part of mile 2 again at night

Nice one

Realist12:
Nigeria will be great again.
This administration inherited insecurity from PDP who saw the insecurity as an avenue to cashout. At the height of insecurity with regular bombing these guys were flying money in private jets . I recall a time when Nigerians were advised to avoid mass gathering for fear of bomb attacks.
We forget quickly.
Who recalled how many times Shekarau died and resurrected under PDP ? He's gone for good now .

we have made progress , I'm just stating that the fight against insecurity by Buhari's administration is real and not a Cash cow like PDP did . And insecurity cannot fade away just like that but today we rarely see these coordinated attacks like before.

Dude please just shut up.

Felabrity:
She is brilliant, a rare gem

Even Buhari can't speak more than 2 languages

but seriously how those this concern Buhari lolz?

Miravik900:
I want to break her heart so badly I'm planning on impregnating her and denying the pregnancy I just want to see her cry with pain

Sir, don't be immature, you better move on if you have a plan for your life.

Villa12:
I'm actually not a Yoruba but I've lived in Yoruba land, Lagos precisely for long

Any Yoruba, Hausa or fulani man and woman campaigning for Obi should have a rethink and retrace their step back. Though this isn't supposed to be so but you see those IGBOS have turned this election to tribalistic one. They have even turn it to religious one

I will support and vote for Tinubu. He has more achievements, antecedents and legacies to point at as a governor and when he left government than EVERY other contestants

Tinubu is very much accommodating and tolerance than other contestants. IGBOS are taking political position in Lagos. IGBOS are civil servants in Lagos and other South western states. IGBOS are doing businesses freely in Lagos and other south western region

Please go to any eastern state to see if you'd see any Yoruba or Hausa man as ordinary councillor. It is a TABOO to the Igbo

To them their igbo president in form of Obi is the best after bread and butter while others are nothing to write home about. Support Tinubu or Atiku and watch them curse, bash or threaten you. They accused you of being paid for supporting Tinubu or Atiku while them are doing it freely. They always insult the Fulani and Hausas and call them all sorts of names. They even call them cow, almajiri etc. They insult the Yorubas calling them fulani slaves. They condemned Nigeria as a country. Claiming Nigeria is a ZOO

ACHIEVEMENT- I WILL VOTE TINUBU
TOLERANCE & ACCOMMODATING- I WILL VOTE TINUBU

For the northerners who reside in the north you can ask any of your family or friends living in Lagos and other South western states they will tell you how Yoruba are so friendly, loving and accommodating. Go to the state headquarter at Alausa ikeja you'll see igbos holding top position without any discrimination

Go to east and see how all positions are occupied completely by all igbos.

An average IGBOS are resentful, spiteful, hateful, bittered et al. They literally see themselves better, superior and more sophisticated than other tribes.

PLEASE verify this my claim if you aren't aware of it and make a decision on who to campaign and vote for

I leave you to your conscience

Okay we've heard you.

SmartPolician:
Good news. They should start operations immediately.

I hope trucks wouldn't have to come from mainland through Lekki - Ajah Expressway to access the seaport because that corridor will be turned into another Apapa nightmare.

The highly politicized Forth Mainland Bridge will be critical at this time. FG should assist LASG to actualize that long-awaited project.

The one at vgc is long over due not to talk of the 4th mainland bridge. Hopefully, they'll act fast and with anticipation for future growth as people pour into Lag on a daily.

ublight:
So guys, yesterday I took my babe out to just sit out and have a swell time together in one of those lounges in uyo. I was with 3k physical cash, and my gtb debit card had over 60k. All was just for flexing.

My new Samsung galaxy barely 2 months old was in my pocket and guys I value this fone more than any other property of mine at the moment. The fone is my cash cow. The fone usually makes between 30 to 40k for me weekly.

So straight to the matter, babe said she wanted to get pizza first so we headed to domino's. Just few meters away from domino's is uniuyo town campus, and the gate also doubles as a park. And as u know, where there is a park, there are touts.


Omo four guys started shouting and pointing at me. 'na him be that. Na him be that. Catch am'.

I didn't know what to do so I kept going. I told babe to walk ahead of me like she didn't know me. I didn't know what to expect and I didn't want to involve her cos I was sure those guys were coming towards my direction. As least I am a guy I can always find an escape route.


These touts/cultists came towards me and claimed that I slept with their capons babe. That they will deal with me. I told them they were mistaken cos I don't fornicate ��.


Mehn dey began to cap. Telling me dey are vikings (like I even care. Who viqueens epp). I was scared, more than scared as dey started requesting for my fone and checking me for cash.


I swore they would not even touch my fone. What nonsense! Taking that fone would be equivalent to dragging me backwards for two years.

I jumped into one mini bus nearby and told d driver to zoom off that I will pay him. The driver being a b*tch ass nigga told me he didn't want any problems with those guys that I should leave his vehicle. Mehn my breathing heightened - an evidence that I was nervous to the peak.



I stepped out of the mini bus, and by this time it was already becoming a scene. Folks thought I was guilty of something nobody wanted to help. Their voices drowned mine their hands were all over me.

I just thought within my self that I wasn't gonna be used for suya by irresponsible and degenerates whose lives and future had been harzaded and wrecked. Heck these guys were gone past redemption. I doubt their mothers would weep over their dead bodies. I'm pretty sure their mothers had laid curses on them, regretted not aborting them. Their fathers drunk and useless, old beggars. Probably dead.


Babe was watching from a distance. She felt helpless. She would have come closer to help but I knew that was useless. I kept maintaining eye contact with her warning her not to come any closer. I could see the tears we'll up in her eyes. I felt broken, but I could not let it end that way.

I remembered the story of those uniport guys that were burnt many years ago cos of false alarm. I told myself that wasn't my lot.

Something just kept delaying these God forsaken souls from carrying out their heinous act immediately. Seems like they were waiting for more of their crew. The just kept holding on to me but took nothing.

Trust gen z's to pull out their fones to capture the moment. Foolish children. Instead of trying to find out the reason for the commotion, they felt at ease to capture and encourage the commotion.

One Rick shaw rider just slowed down to see what was going on. I saw an opportunity present itself and I was grateful. I forced my self closer to the keke. The man was uncomfortable with me approaching so he tried to move away. As he doubled his acceleration, I quadrupled mine.

Confused, he decided he was not going to watch anymore before he got involved in something bigger than he had bargained.

As he tried to zoom off, I threw my self into the air. Those boys didn't see that coming. Their grip had loosened. I jumped and clinged on the keke. The rider got more frightened and increased his speed. When we had gone a safe distance, he asked me what happened and I told him. He asked me to check if anything was missing. Gladly only a hundred naira was missing.


This was around 4pm. I told babe to go home that I was gonna see her later. Went to my hood and shared the story with one street og.

Without mentioning the frat to him, nigga told me it had to b vikings. Told me what to do if such happens again. He also tried to get me join his frat to avoid future intimidation. I politely declined, gave him 2k and left.

Got home, called babe to ask her how far. She started laughing and calling me a coward. She meant it as a joke, but it was demasculating and demeaning.

I think I am done with her.
What do you guys think? Am I over reacting?

I'm gonna be frank with you sir, if after asking her to move away just to ensure her safety and she stood and was helpless in even trying to save you and after managing to escape, all she could say was sure insensitive statement, that's a very disappointing thing.

You just escaped possible death and that's a brave move sir. Imagine if you had stood and fight and you got killed, then will she call you a hero?!

The issue of whether you should break up with her or not is up to you sir.

Amenadiel:
You humans should learn to give and take more care of your parents and siblings first before any one else.

You see how you asked her to move ahead and she did, watching from afar.

Your mother would rather die there with you.
Your sister even if she can't help will never leave your side to watch while you are about to be beaten or killed.

Humans, Love your family more. Give them more. Show them more love and care.
Shalom

This is very deep...will always pounder on this and keep it at heart ❤️❤️❤️

Kagd10:
Exactly.

It's stupidity to expect anything tangible from Peter Obi who did nothing in Anambra.

Ask his supporters to list his achievement, they will keep mute. They can't list his achievement. What significant change has Peter Obi given you while he was Anambra governor? Absolute nothing.

Rather he was investing his state funds into his family business.

Some asked me to list Tinubu's legacy below.





These are Tinubu's legacies:

Tinubu legacies:
1. LASTMA.
2. Lekki trade zone.
3. LASU teaching hospital & clinical school.
4. Health care centers.
5. Eko Atlantic city.
6. Econet.
7. Lekki seaport.
8. 4 standard millennium schools.
9. Housing estates.
10. BRT.
11. Several policies which helped in high increase of Lagos revenues.
12. Some roads etc


Now list Peter Obi's legacies.

I want everyone to watch and see if these Ipob urchins would reply. They always keep mute or insult when asked to list Peter Obi's achievement. Peter Obi has got absolute nothing.

Never side with wrong because it favours you and never ignore the truth because you don't want it.

heendrix:
Sincerely speaking if I'm Peter Obi I'll follow suit cuz what on earth would Obi gain if he's embarrassed at the poll next year?? he couldn't even win massively in all the states in his region 2019 and same thing would happen 2023. as the biggest fan of Obi atm, I'll be the only one to tell him the bitter truth. Sir, now is not the best time to contest. carefully and sincerely back off the presidential race.

May I humbly ask why you think he'll be disgraced at the polls and what makes you think it won't be the other candidates?
