I noticed someone blocked me everywhere. Still not sure if what I said was wrong so pls be the judge.. I hadn’t seen him with his wife for a while and saw they deleted each other’s pics on Instagram, so I asked what was up.
He said they’re divorced.
I asked what happened.

He said she’s not homely, can’t cook, doesn’t clean — and the final straw was when he asked her to wash his expensive Dior sneakers before a trip. Instead of scrubbing them, she threw them in the washing machine and they got ruined.

So I asked:
Did she cook when you were dating?

He said no.
Did she clean or wash?
He said no.

I said, so she’s never been doing those things, and you expected her to suddenly change cos you’re married?
He got angry.

They were married for just 18 months 💔

A lot of people are getting married without understanding what marriage really is.
The red flags you ignore while dating won’t disappear — they’ll only grow.
You can’t change your partner. Heck, you can’t even change yourself.
Know what you’re signing up for and ask yourself if you can truly live with it — for life.

The Lagos Zonal Directorate 1 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, arraigned one Ewulum Chimeze Felix on an 11-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence, stealing, possession of fraudulent documents and forgery to the tune of N23,500,280 (Twenty-Three Million, Five Hundred Naira Two Hundred and Eighty kobo)  before Justice Mojisola Dada of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos.

Chimeze allegedly promised to help the petitioner obtain a United Kingdom visa,  work permit as well as a certificate of sponsorship to travel abroad.

He, however, allegedly reneged on his promise after collecting money from the petitioner.

One of the counts reads: “EWULUM CHIMEZE FELIX (Trading Under the name and style of Slenzy Ventures), sometime in 2024 at Lagos, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, with intent to defraud, obtained the sum of N18,038,000.00 (Eighteen million Thirty-eight Thousand Naira only) from

Nnochiri Chiedozie Boniface by falsely representing that the money was for procuring the United Kingdom visa  and work permit, a representation you  knew to be false".

Another count reads: “ That you, Ewulun Chimeze Felix, on or about 10th March, 2025 at Lagos, within the  jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, with intent to defraud, had in your possession several fraudulent documents, one of which is a forged Florida Driver's licence with the name "VOJTISEK ADRIENA" ,which you presented to unsuspecting victims, a representation you knew to be false".

He pleaded  not guilty to the charges when they were read to him

In view of this, prosecution counsel, M. B. Isha, prayed for a trial date, and also urged the court to remand the defendant at a Correctional Centre pending his trial date.

The defence counsel, Michael O. Nwigbo, however, informed the court of a pending application for bail for his client, and also prayed for a short date for the hearing.

Consequently, Justice Dada adjourned the matter till June 17, 2025 for the commencement of trial and also  ordered the custodial remand of the defendant pending his trial.

This morning, I stopped by AP Filling Station in Maitama, opposite Transcorp, to fuel my car. To my surprise, I noticed the fuel attendants murmuring, so I decided to engage one of them since there weren’t many cars around. I asked what was going on, and the lady told me they had just protested to the management for a salary increase, but their request was rejected.

I gently asked how much they earn monthly, and to my shock, she said they’re paid ₦10,000 per month. I asked if she meant ₦100,000, but she insisted it was ₦10,000. She even called one of her colleagues, and when I asked her, she confirmed it.

Where is the Nigerian Labour Congress when you need them? This is exactly the kind of issue people likes of @YeleSowore, @adeyanjudeji etc should be fighting for, instead of focusing solely on the presidency. Nigerians aren’t even fair to each other.

How do they expect these workers to transport themselves, feed their families, and not be tempted to steal from customers? A big station like Androva Petroleum shouldn’t be paying staff such a disgracefully low salary.

I hope they act fast. I feel genuinely sad for them and pray they get justice as soon as possible.

Dear Nairalanders,

My company asked a couple of us to resign, services no longer required. I was paid a little above 10M and I will be venturing into lending. Microlending. Please say your prayers for me and wish me well. I will appreciate all you prayers and encouragement too...

Thank You and Regards,

Let it be known that i was dismissed from my job for doing the right thing.

For refusing to engage in unethical practices.

Especially prescribing and selling control drugs as sleeping pills without a doctor’s prescription.

A patient walked in on Saturday, asking for Diazepam. I requested for prescription, he had none.

“Who placed you on the medication” ? he said my boss gave him 4 doses already and he came back for more becos he couldn’t sleep.

I refused to give him, today i was asked to quit.

NDLEA Busts International Dr¥g Syndicate at Lagos Airport, Seizes 51kg of Lo¥d and Cash in Lekki Raid

Two British nationals: Mhizha Jordan Alexander Tatendra and Ayedipe Andrew Adejuwon as well as two Nigerians identified as Shonowo Oluwaseun Imole and Ofuoma Omokaro Ayobami have been arrested by NDLEA operatives for attempting to smuggle into Nigeria 92 bags of Lo¥d, a strong strain of c@nnabis weighing 51.10kg through the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, MMIA Ikeja Lagos.

This was revealed in a signed statement by the agency’s Director, Media & Advocacy, Femi Babafemi on Sunday, May 25, 2025.

Alexander was intercepted with the consignment upon his arrival at the MMIA on a Qatar Airline flight from Doha based on processed intelligence on Thursday 15th May.

He was allowed to pass through the security control unhindered and closely monitored by NDLEA operatives to the car park, where the owner of the cargo, Ayedipe Andrew Adejuwon, who is a Nigerian British, was waiting in an SUV along with his relation Shonowo Oluwaseun Imole and the driver of the vehicle, Ofuoma Omokaro Ayobami, to receive the courier.

The NDLEA operatives tracking them however swooped on them as they attempted to drive out of the airport car park, arresting them with the dr¥g exhibits in the vehicle.

In his statement, Alexander confessed he was recruited during his vacation weeks ago while he was promised 1,300 British Pounds after a successful delivery of the consignment in Lagos.

The arrowhead of the syndicate, Ayedipe Andrew Adejuwon, confessed that he arrived in Nigeria a day earlier from South Africa through Ghana.

A follow-up operation at their apartment in Lekki led to more discoveries. At the point of his arrest, N93,000 and 17,200 South African Rand were recovered from him while a search of his Lekki apartment, led to the seizure of Three Million Eight Hundred and Ten Thousand Five Hundred Naira (N3,810,500) cash, an Apple laptop, an iPhone 14 Pro Max and four laughing gas (Nitro Oxide) canisters.

So I went on a date with a guy yesterday, and we were having a very nice conversation, and mid way he said “I will marry a woman whom my family members don’t like, just so they wouldn’t come to my house at all”. And I fell inlove immediately.

My reason was because;

He is the typa guy every woman like me, who loves boundaries would love to have as a husband.👌💆‍♀️

During a Teams interview I attended today, one of the panelists who was also Nigerian made a comment that left me feeling quite uncomfortable. He said, and I quote: ‘I hope you’re not one of those Nigerians who attend a one-month bootcamp, fabricate job experience on their CVs,

and then underperform once hired. We’ll be verifying all the companies on your CV if you’re successful—are you sure you’re safe?’

Even though my CV is completely genuine and I stand by my experience, I felt disheartened hearing such a remark, especially coming from a fellow

Nigerian, and in the presence of an interview panel that included individuals of other races.
