EducationRe: What Act During An Exam Made You Shed Tears? Share Your Experiences by coldFLARES1(m): 9:26pm On Apr 24, 2021
Thank God, His mercies stay forever!

Was 300L first semester some many years ago. Was a SHELL scholar, young and dangerously indulged in gambling. Wasted more than my sponsorship and what my parents capacity could carry before it was mid-semester. Popsie didn't know his favorite son was a gambler, but out of deep concern for my endless demands for money, he reminded me of the son of whom I was and added that at that rate, I may drop out. He gave me some small change to go manage.

Because, I loved my dad and seeing how worried I was making him feel, I decided I would change. Unfortunately, I went back to gambling and lost everything under a week, about 2 weeks to exams.

Nonetheless, I decided not to go back home and approached a female friend to assist with feeding me till the end of the semester. grin.

Babes agreed on the condition that she would always sit beside me all through the exams. In my small mind, I felt relieved until exams started and a new seating arrangement saw male and female course mates writing in different halls.

When, after the first paper, I went to her place to see if my stomach could get some palliatives, babes simply told me our agreement stood nullified by the new enforced seating arrangements. I quite understood and left very worried.

Implications was that while others who had supplies settled to prepare for exams, I was wandering like a herdsman looking for someone to just help with a meal. Painfully, quite a lot of peeps I went to dismissed me as simply wanting to disturb their concentration and preparation since they say I was bright. Hungry beat me tire!

There was this course I was an authority in, and its date came. I was in the hall having had just two handful of garri and some water for breakfast and was already seeing angels and demons.

Papers were shared, I read the questions; things I would have aced on a good day. But see me! I could not prepare because I was wandering all over the campus looking for someone to feed me a meal. I could not answer any question!

In desperation, I was begging a coursemate to assist me with answers. He declined, stressing that he didn't want rustication for exams malpractice.

Seeing what gambling did to me and knowing that it was hunger that brought me to that sorry position, na so I burst cry inside hall; got up went to submit my papers and left.

I had a GPA of 2.11 as reward for my indiscretion.
BusinessRe: Share Your Experience Collecting Your Money Back From Your Debtors by coldFLARES1(m): 8:55am On Apr 11, 2021
Kondomatic:
I got a call from her one evening requesting financial assistance. I wasn't expecting something like that from her because she was(still is) doing well for herself. She works and owns a business and I was like "okay, maybe she's down on cash, it happens to everyone" so I sent the requested amount.

The agreement was that she would pay back on Monday evening and this happened on Saturday morning.

Six months later I still no see my money and ma'am has stopped taking my calls and would not return messages.

I was shocked.

So I decided to block her on her way to church, I initially wanted to go to her church to get my money but on a second thought I decided that the embarrassment wasn't necessary.

She saw me before I could see her and turned back and then called me on phone with a hidden number and started ranting.

"So it has gotten to this right? See, I heard everything you said and I am ready for whatever you want to do, you hear? Take the case to anywhere you want. Police oo, Army oo, human rights oo, court oo, I am ready for anything"

I was calm the whole time and didn't say a word until she said "hello? Can you hear me?"

"I can hear you ma" I said "I am just trying to figure out what I did wrong. You needed my help and I gave you my help but this is how you want to pay me back?

If you're having some financial problems, let me know, I may understand. If you don't want to pay me at all, please let me know, I can leave it for you but if you just want a problem with me then I am equally up for it and no, I can't take you you to human rights or any of the places you mentioned.

That's what civilized people do but I am not civilized.
If I need my money this evening, I will send some street boys to you and they will get my money with interest and also take any other thing they want.

Or I can just take your name to a shrine in the village, thank God we are from the same place so you know how it is, you will pay me my money and pay for all the expenses..... "


She no let me finish before she begin beg.

Gave me a date and paid before that day.

I love the way you handled your debt recovery. You're the total man mehn.

Would say I have learnt lessons with lending money anyways. Most times, when people come to borrow money that they intend to use to solve some personal or family/domestic problems, or a crisis situation in their businesses, chances are they're most likely to default on agreed timelines for repayment. In cases like that I help in ways I can. Like a paddy needed me to assist with a sizeable chunk of his rent because he was facing the threat of eviction. Promised to pay back. I just laughed and asked what job he did that'll help him generate a savings from which he intended to pay me. Las las, I promised and gave him the fraction I could sacrifice as my contribution and that settled it!

The last person which situation looked like he borrowed money from me has severely damaged our friendship, though I ensured I got back my payment.

He was a link to disposing some goods he previously sold to me which I found pretty difficult to sell. At the same price he sold to me about 7 months earlier, he sold to the new buyer but chose to feed me with incredible stories for three months until I lost my cool. I simply highlighted the steps I would take to get my money in a message to him (none was considerate) and promised him I would graduate from one to the other should he fail to retrieve my money and pay back.

Man that was avoiding my calls for almost a month reached back and gave a date.

He repaid a day after the deadline date he gave.

Sorry, I can't exactly situate if they're a Federal or State agency, but those dirty nuisances on white vs black uniforms in Delta are State employees.

However, my view was expressed in the light of a mention of a violation of state traffic law, R9, in the article/judgement.

My knowledge of the law is limited, but I don't think so.

Ruling was delivered in the light of the extant traffic laws in Delta State at the time the case came up in 2014.

Problem now is, in the light of this judgement, if they still wish to continue the extortion, then an amendment to the law would be made at the DSHA and that settles the matter going forward.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Lady Loses Job Opportunity Due To Her Response To HR's Phonecall by coldFLARES1(m): 4:37am On Apr 03, 2021
firstworld:
The HR person is at fault I am in HR and because of these kinds of reactions, I usually start my calls by introducing myself first so the other person knows who is calling and is at ease. He could have simply said "I am John D calling from bank. That wouldnt hurt. That said, the lady should have been cautious as a job seeker that was just interviewed and expecting phone calls. Lets call a spade a spade please.
God bless you! How some people think with all the stress we face with living in Nigeria, that we can accommodate drills of " sitting on the hot seat" like someone on "Who wants to be a Millionaire" show beats me.

You call someone without introducing yourself, and possibly goes ahead to ask the person to confirm his identity or location in these times of criminal/unlawful tracking; hypnotic calls etc and think you're justified to continue some senseless drills because you bear good tidings? Not a lot of people would be patient to see the end of such conversations.

Nonetheless, I am not sure I like it when asked "who's this?" as opposed to "may I know who's speaking?"
PoliticsRe: Outrage As FG Admits Paying Fuel Subsidy After Removal by coldFLARES1(m): 10:15pm On Mar 26, 2021
Subsidybad21:
I'm going to tell a honest truth...here

The thing is, in my time discussing subsidy removal here, one thing I have noticed is that most Nigerians, despite the corruption and lying around oil subsidy at the end of the day don't want it to go.

For folks like me who see how damaging it is to our economy, how it chops money that could have been used for other things, and how it prevents the creation of more refinereis to compete with Dangote refinery, and by extension more jobs, for someone like me who felt like screaming in 2012 when people were opposing a for once good initiative by the then government because politics....well it is sad.

Subsidy has created a lot of problems for Nigeria. We lose billions to smuggling of fuel, lose billions to people making false claims on the PEF, and amount improted or bought, and we lose lots of opportunities to have new refinereis because who wants to come and refine at a loss...and we lose out on jobs.

Well, as for me, subsidy has to go. It has nothing to do with supporting Buhari or GEJ for me. It has nothing to do with 2015, 2019, or 2012. It has nothing to do with whether I want you to suffer or don't have regard for your revenue, or whatever. It has everything to do with our economy growing into somehting stronger, and there being more jobs.

So let's end the lies, and the stealing, and the corruption and end this subsidy. We cannot continue like this any longer.

Good evening.

P.S: If you abuse me or call me names, or curse me, I will most certainly report you to the mods. I HAVE NOT INSULTED OR ABUSED ANYONE IN MAKING THIS COMMENT. If you can't be mature in your disagreement with me, like some have been thank God...then you better pay the price.


PS.2:
Like you, I've always been against sustaining the subsidy regime and its scam because of the benefits inherent for greater good of the country. Sad this revelation is coming out again.

When some months back, the Minister of Finance was talking about how the government had achieved the milestone of a total removal of subsidy, I simply laughed and asked if she wasn't fooled by the convergence of prices due to low crude oil prices caused by the oil supremacy battle between Russia and Saudi-Arabia.

Now that oil prices are testing new highs, their pedestrian understanding of the subject and their absolute confusion is exposed for all to see.

For as long as these people keep insisting on subsidizing fuel like they do to their almajiris, our liberation as a country would be somewhere very far in the future.
FamilyRe: I Resigned From Work In Lagos, Relocated To Abuja To Be With My Girl & Get A Job by coldFLARES1(m): 4:31pm On Mar 21, 2021
Switchman:
Yes you are right I actually accepted her cos then I was seeing anyone and secondly am in my late 30s too and I felt this is a good opportunity to set my self up in the family way but the way she changed overnight due to the fact that the job search wasn't going the way we expected. Na money be man true true.
Evidently, some people would have to experience some discomfiting situations personally to appreciate some advise some of us forerunners have given for free. grin.

My brother, to the extent that you resigned to take the option to relocate following some issues with your employment (even though you said it could have be ironed out), I have no qualms with your moving to cohabit with her while hoping to land a job soon enough.

To be consigned to doing chores to assist on the interim is to be expected especially if one is reasonable.

To the bad mouthing....... grin. Just know again, that women aren't exactly wired to be breadwinners. The few that take those roles in their strides and don't rain down hell are an exception. It won't stop, until you are able to be a financial member in the union.

Just like some others have advised, create a timeline save up to be on your own or to return back to Lagos. It could get worse!

Though the background to my experience isnt same as yours, but I was thrown out in three days! Pele. All shall be well!

No outside woman or grandmother in her right will take care of his 3 pooping, crying responsibilities called babies with that money he is giving his wife. Theu will tell him to come and carry them back or worse still squander the money and maltreat the babies.
Quite a sorry situation caused by no fault of theirs. Hope he pays greater attention to our reasonable suggestions to placate his wife while working to earn more.

If he realizes that what he tenders for upkeep is what some folks with lesser number of kids use to power generators in a month, then he would show more understanding for the frustrations coming from his wife.

God help him

Brother erm,your wife is right o...e be like you stingy small.
You give ur wife 20k n later 25k after many argument for the family upkeep...you guys are 4 in number,o wrong nau.
I am single,I don't consider myself as one who spends recklessly at all but uses 40k monthly...but somehow you feel you,wife,n kids should use 25k?
Try raise the money for family upkeep,I think 45k or 50 could be something for a prudent woman considering you don't have much.
Nice comment sir! Problem is that 55k is insufficient to run a home with three fragile babies (nor to talk of the 25k he recently reviewed it to).

He needs to plead for more understanding from his wife while he consciously and urgently works on earning more. Else, the frictions would continue until she make good her threat.

Unfortunately, if you're man with some conscience, in these type of situations, there comes a time where you'd rather be jobless than keep asslicking to keep a job that would not be worth it when the day of reckoning comes.

The security situation of the country really scares me, yet it keeps getting worse because government are now openly acting as enablers. I hardly do interstate travels because I can't imagine being caught in a hostage situation, a terrible situation whose probability seem to have risen to like 3%.

I would be doing a bit of farming this year with the hope to be substantially invested in farming next year and you know what? With the security situation currently, procuring arms and ammunition seem to be as important as getting improved seedlings and farm equipment.

Thumbs up with the humility of committing to patch things up. It can be hard work I know.

But the placenta, .......what's the fuss about it. Is there a cultural or doctrinal impediment consequent on not burying it yourself or with your approval?

I ask because my daughter was given birth to in a city close to a hundred kilometers from my home (my in-laws city of residence), I'm sure I was asked what to do with it and I asked that they bury it wherever they see fit. Thankful for that moment, revelling in the joy of being a tot's daddy and asking for mercy and favour to not fail in my duty as a father took all my energy.

On a lighter note, so that governor's budget of "peristaltic cataclysm" does not even factor in the salaries and entitlement of aides to warrant one frustrated one contemplating suicide?

This is the bane of Nigeria: men lacking both vision and good conscience positioned in strategic places working tirelessly, like the devil their father, to hold us down or drag us back.

People asked why he didn't resign while I think the proper question should be why did he take up an appointment as the aide of a governor with almost 400 others in what has turned out to be a huge clownish stunt. Well, it takes real wllpowe to walk away from such madness and I suspect dude stayed put because he thinks government can, at worse owe but is certain to pay. Guess he's learning hard lessons with the situation his family is as well as the debts/loan he secured to facilitate his appointment.

I empathise with him and hope his threat of suicide could force a payment of his arrears so he can find something sane and decent to do with his life.

Beautiful submission, my brother! Except, people would like to admit that it's preferable a member of your family cons you out of your money than some other random street girl, by whatever categorization.

Life has taught me to be quite cautious with both family and lovers (thank God I'm married now). For family, left a small business for a favorite younger brother to supervise, way back, while I travelled to another State for IT. I almost returned to meets its ruins. Left another for another brother to sustain himself in the university while I left for greener pasture, he simply abandoned it and supervised it's death!

Friends? One experience stands out. A friend introduced his cousin to me who duped me in a signed partnership. Babes? grin, a standout betrayal was when sister scatter ground say no be me pay for furniture for her flat at the point of a breakup. E funny me gan! I shrugged it off, called it bad gamble and moved on.

So, you would see, that it's pretty difficult to extract loyalty once financial dealings are involved because the other party may because of filial connections, friendship or romance treat your agreement(s) with levity.

I just love the way Boda Emma has chosen to play: get her arrested and start litigation. Thank God for that Magistrate as well, #3m for her bail and two sureties in like sum (I think that sums up to #9m). Then April, case comes up for mention while she stays remanded in Kirikiri prison (dem say na correctional facility) cheesy.

By the time the case experiences only 3 adjournments, she may have spent a year in prison already and trust me, that guy she bolted with may have abandoned her to her fate. God punish her the case drags for longer than 3yrs, then with that picture of Mary right there, I doubt she'll find someone new to marry.

Nonetheless, I could advice from your narration already. Lady, please end that mock marriage youve been experimenting with by cohabiting with that guy for over a year now. The revelations are damning and are a pointer to what disaster the both of you would make of the marriage institution.

To a large extent, I agree with your boyfriend about being put-off by the unwillingness of a working spouse to contribute to the running of the home while also being jolted by his rather open clamour that you share the bill in a certain ratio. But you see, where you said he eats 5times a day (someone who supposedly goes to work) while you eat one and a half time a day is the deal-breaker for me. Shows you would be comfortable even if he decides to eat like a chicken but provided he doesn't bother you with requesting your contribution (a working woman).

Please kindly leave his house; get your apartment; be totally responsible for yourself while you await someone else that has no qualms with being totally responsible, in a relationship/union, with a woman that earns but yet is unwilling to contribute to the welfare/wellbeing of her home.

Except you'd insinuate I went for a confirmatory test, ...that year, while in Warri, I dreaded nighfall because I am always host to tens of mosquitoes which found their way to my room from mainly through the floor drain in the bathroom.

Same thing happened to me. Prior to marriage. My wife claimed she was AA. I'm AS. I demanded for test result. She told me she can't find it again as it has been very long she did the test.

She claimed all her siblings are all AA. The whole thing bursted when my 3rd son fell seriously ill. He always for sick until a day, he had priapism at such young age, so I took him to the hospital.

I demanded the lab technician to conduct a genotype test and blood group test. He turned out to be SS, but same blood group with mine.

Wife was still claiming she was AA. Right there, I demanded she took a genotype test. Within minutes result was out. She is AS. She scammed me. Ever since that time my marriage has been a shamble.

She never apologized for the lie. No remorse till this day. I have been doing everything not to lose that boy.

So, many things has really happened from that day. Lots of discoveries. I was never truly loved but for the sake of I want to get married. All for her selfishness.
Sorry for the agony this wilful concealment of vital information, without remorse, has caused you. What do I say other than.......all shall be well.

Unfortunately, withholding vital health information seems commonplace when people want to get married and this is usually caused by desperation fuelled by factors like age, social standings and maybe prospects.

See me here, my wife came in with eye problems and one other debilitating health condition which wasn't disclosed at any point before marriage. We're managing it, but it hurts to discover when you are totally handicapped in taking a stand.

God be with you, my brother.

Simply put men on his trail and arrest him after midnight, dem no fit. If I say I no tire for Nigeria Police ......na lie I lie.
BusinessRe: 7 Ways To Get Out Of Debt In 2021 by coldFLARES1(m): 9:43am On Jan 24, 2021
Having accessed credit from lending institutions a coupla times before 2020 and having regard to the fact that I successfully navigated those periods, I have a bit of a problem with not taking a loan to repay one that's subsisting.

Basically, a borrower who aims not to be in the debt dragnet for a period longer than necessary should pay particular attention to the lending rates, the repayment period as well as penalties for default on repaying his loan while also honestly factoring his cashflow and its capacity to pay back his debts without substantially disrupting his lifestyle and wellbeing.

Let me buttress why it isn't entirely bad to repay a loan with another, other things (caahflow position), being equal: assume you borrowed #xy from a MFB at 60% interest rate p.a and later on found an opportunity to borrow same amount from a cooperative society at 10% interest rate p.a, after some months, who says it's not wisdom to borrow from the cooperative to clear your balance with the MFB?

Anyone seeking loans, except they originally set out to defraud/stress their creditors, should be clear with the terms and ensure they have the capacity to repay so everyone can have peace!

Someone I know fairly closely. Such a great loss this is for the Winners family.

May God forgive his shortcomings and accept him into His rest and well as grant his young amazing family the fortitude to cope with the loss.

Rest in peace, brother Elliot.

I'm American that's how I know him and to know him is to loathe him. He's the dumbest, divisive, white supremacists raised by the KKK, narcissistic bastard, president in our times. I don't understand how people who most likely haven't stepped a foot in the states could support such an evil man.

I've read how some Nigerian feel about your president and I thought he's like Trump "" Don't give a damn about the.people or Country, only power".

I don't understand the hypocrisy when it comes to Trump, could it be because he's white they can't see how wicked he is? I know how a lot of them worship anything white.
pls be calming down!

Good thing is, everyone is entitled to their views and should feel free to take a position on a matter, or shift same in the face of new evidences or superior argument.

Walahi, Trump dey fall hands! Funny enough it did not start today and the man has stayed consistent in his bad habits.

I eagerly await how the full extent of the law would be applied in dealing with him when this saga closes.
