You Gbagi no be Ibori boy No be every information we go share online.

My brother, even Ibori no go fit talk say Gbagi na I'm boy

airsaylongcom:
Admire Kenneth? Naaah. Ken is a beast. I prefer his elder brother and one time chairman of Ughelli South LG, Chief Faith Gbagi. Kenneth is too uncouth

Oniovo, no be say I no know say Kenneth na woski kind of fellow. The kind of man that servant, in the parable of the talent, in the Bible described as a "hard" man.

Uncouth? Yes! How he insulted old men, fellow landlords because they considered him their level when they were pulling funds to buy transformer from way back to when he asked an MC to shut up and stop all the grammar during a fundraiser, i f he doesn't have the money to spend, then u go know say him dey scatter-yarn wella.

How he fenced a street where his house is to become a close and u know he is mindless.

However, the ruthlessness with which he succeeded as a businessman is what I admire about him. I don't know why.

As for him Senior brother, I am hearing his name for the first time and I am sure Kenneth was instrumental to his getting that position.

MrTAnonymous:
Oh boy! This men are strong oo.
I can't do that. What if the case arise in the future and I need to have more kids? What if my wife divorces me and I remarry and I need a kid with my woman? What if my kids die and I have no option than to procreate? What will I do? So I can't do it, thank you, Next!!!

Incase you don't know na me talk

These are valid concerns you have up there mehn. However, I would appear to be less bothered about having kid(s) in the event of a divorce.

The only inhibition to vasectomy for me, after i birth my second, would be because I am Nigerian, with village people having active satellites monitoring situation. However, at some point, in the future when my second would start pre-nursery, I would take the final decision because I would hate to repeat the war with forcing an abortion or hearing funny stories about preparing to be a father again due to slips here or there.

maasoap:
What is that thing you admire about him? The same man you qualified as ruthless and without mercy!

I don't know about his biography, but I factor that his ruthlessness was a factor that helped him succeed in business. This man moved his way up the rungs of the ladder.

I hope to be hugely successful one day and the trait of ruthlessness is a most sought-after for me. The reason I admire Kenneth Gbagi

odinga1of:
Kenneth Gbagi is one of the most wicked and senseless politician from Delta State.

He singlehandedly destroyed people's caravan, so they could rent his Robinson Plaza then.

He is a wicked man.


His governorship ambition is dead on arrival

� You see, there's nothing heartless that's beyond Gbagi's capacity to do. That guy is mean on another level.

From way back 1997, I have known him to be real trouble! He wasn't a part of Ibori's government but was a main contestant against Ibori in the PDP primaries of 1999 and 2007.

Chances are, by Nigerian standards, he would never realise his ambition of governing Delta State because you won't get his 10kobo if you do not earn it!

When I saw ex-minister, I reasoned it could only be Kenneth Gbagi!

Man is very ruthless,

.....and without mercy too.

I admire him a lot, nonetheless.

SILVERLINES:
Congratulations sir

It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.

As a child I have been really dreamt of studying med/surgery, but I ended up with biochemistry and proceeded with an M.Sc but every night my heart keep panting reminding me that I have a role to play in the health sector than being a mere biochemist without significantly working in anyway related to heath. After all this trouble going through my heart I am definitely willing to return back to the root and accomplish this dream.
So help me God!

To a lot of us, reconnecting with boyhood dreams and professional aspirations confers a huge sense of fulfilment, especially after bagging other honors.

It requires steadfastness and loads of commitments to actualizing them. God help you achieve yours too.

tooth4tooth:
Then illustrate lesson plan na

He has done so.

Good thing, he gave the best definition of what the Lesson Plan is.

Only an illustration could better the definition he gave.

......what the most people liked is actually an illustration of a Lesson Note and not a Lesson Plan.

famouscargo4u:
you did very well with the lesson note. however, lesson plan is not same with lesson note.

Thought I had absolutely forgotten all knowledge got from Science Education that year, because it has tey gan.

But then, I could quite recollect that what that guy put there was part of the model for writing a Lesson Note. Thanks for drawing attention to it.

Op, from my formal training, that year, we were told a Lesson Plan involves allocating/specifying time for which specific objectives hopes to be achieved within a time period (lesson period that is), on a given topic (Respiratory system, in your case).

This includes time for creating an atmosphere for friendly teaching-learning; time for assessing background knowledge (knowledge quite fundamental to helping students understand the topic at hand); introducing the subject; teaching on the subject; allowing for questions; and asking questions to gauge their understanding of what you've taught (those questions are called the "Instructional Objectives" which are usually stated on the Lesson Notes.

So, what your Supervisor rates you on is how well you achieved your objectives of imparting knowledge while religiously sticking with all timelines itemized in your Lesson Plan.

So, if it's a single period of 45mins in which you are meant to teach Respiratory System, you would have to allocate time to how you can achieve your objectives through those subheadings I already listed. Your supervisor scores you based on how well you deliver on the topic while religiously sticking with all time allocated to precursor stages.

Hope this helps.

I didn't do this professionally for up to nine months though, and that was a long time ago.

kikero:
Nigerians are funny

When GEJ raised prices from 65 to 140 in 2012 ,Nigerians were on the street protesting...including Bubu and the gang. Under pressure, GEJ reduced fuel prices to N97, and probably emptied a large part of our reserve to maintain it at 97, and later 87.

Now, Bubu is in power, he has seen what GEJ saw (he probably knew back in 2012 that GEJ was right, but this was too sweet a political opportunity to pass up),and is raising prices because now he knows why GEJ did what he did in 2012.

But trust Nigerians.

All of you Nigerians crying, here is the thing. We cannot afford to keep petrol prices low for ever. We should have removed this fuel subsidy of a thing since 1993 when baroness Chalker came and told us on behalf of the IMF but instead we were abusing her as oyinbo agent of destruction. We should have heard in 2005 when Obasanjo minister warned is that fuel then was cheaper than coke, and was unsustainable at that price, but no, we wanted cheap fuel

Subsidy prevents us from having good refineries because the more we keep on controlling prices, Nnpc cannot make a profit to even fix the refineries. Refineries cost far more than NNPc has to repair them. Then the sabotage and looting happens because NNPC is a government thing, and that's the only way NNPc workers can make money. If NNPC was private, and fuel prices were controlled by the marketers , we would have long since had working refineries because now they have to work, or NNpc and it's workers become broke.

All this complaining, is because Nigerians want to pay N30 per liter for fuel. You want cheap price for fuel without considering how the people who transport and sell the fuel to you will survive. 90 percent of them are ordinary Nigerians like you and me. Yet your desire for cheap fuel is making them suffer...because ypu think that it is the marketers who get all the money.

Look, I don't back Buhari. I never voted for the man, never will. I never voted for any PDP candidate. I regard APC and PDP as two parts of the same.party.

But the fact is, for our refineries to work, for our oil to flow , we must privatise Nnpc and let the marketers, not the government control the price of fuel and end the whole subsidy , and yes government still pays subsidy they call it underrecovery, but it is subsidy...and while you would pay over 200 Naira per liter of fuel, smuggling will stop, more refineries would be built, more investment would flow in, more jobs would be created, and at the end of the day, prices will fall

In fact, kerosene and diesel are no longer subsidised. Time for petrol to follow suit.

Nigeria cannot afford to keep oil low

And if you are a PDP or GEJ supporter reading this and thinking of calling me an APC supporter, know that I would have said thi s back in 2012, and APC supporters then would have called me PDP supporter. Just to tell you that this is not politics.

God richly bless you brother.

How long Nigerians would want subsidy, its frauds and the attendant drags on our Commonwealth to persist is not something I'm not quite sure of, but it is really saddening to read about ill-informed opposition/protestations to little steps taken in the direction that would achieve greater good.

As for subsidy (now veiled as under recovery), I thought we moved away from that lexicon a few months ago? Now it quite seem the government made the statement because of the IMF loan they wanted then, coupled with the fact that oil was selling very low (that oil supremacy battle between Saudi-Arabia and Russia). And it is most unfortunate!

We would have to eternally put up with the "losses" yearly posted by the NNPC if we fail to deregulate and allow private investors drive NNPC to its eventual death with the kind of competition that would ultimately create jobs, curb waste and marginally increase our collective economic prosperity.

LegendsCoded:
There is a policeman living in the same compound ���‍♂️

If there's a policeman, a supposed officer of za law, living in same compound as you, then ask him, in private, why he is doing nothing about the recurring violence.

Me is sure, his response would determine whether you look away or do something.

Until then, Oga keep minding your little business.

Perhaps getting married to the lady may confer some benefits which we that are married do not enjoy or may not have seen.

If i t is true that, post-marriage, he would be, mostly if not totally, responsible for her, their children and her family, then he has shown himself extremely stupid.

loneprof:
It is wrong to assert that she might have gotten pregnant out of the need to rescue herself from poverty, just because the man who impregnated her was a married man.

You excluded 2 vital factors in your reasoning:
1. That this girl was only a minor (21 yrs with a 5yr old means she was only 16!) when she was impregnated by the so called helper and
2. The man abused her under the guise of helping her, even if he fed and sheltered her, she was still abused because it was statutory rape (any form of sex with a minor under 18).
+3. Even if she deliberately got pregnant as a "wise and experienced 16 year old ADULT" just to escape poverty, does that negate the fact that someone was responsible for the pregnancy and should live up to his responsibility if the girl decides to keep the baby? What kind of man takes a 16yr old girl for abortion anyway?

Pregnancy is not something a man can simply opt out of just because he told her he didn't want it. If you have raw sex with a girl, you are asking for it, it's a simple natural process.

If she wants to keep her child, she should be given the opportunity to give her child motherly care instead of giving her up for adoption. With support, the girl will go places and very soon have good stories to tell.

Conclusion: Your comment portrays you as a very heartless human being. I am a man like you and I can't imagine what that poor girl must be going through. Grow some conscience in the way you think and judge.

We could argue endlessly about who's to blame given the girl's situation, unfortunately, I am not exactly cut out for stuff like that.

As a person, if after analyzing a situation, I find myself honestly incapable of taking responsibility, I simply table my requests without much noise. If the other party goes against my wish, no amount of threat or pain would move me to show compassion.

If that's what it means to be heartless, I am!

loneprof:
My dear, I hope all you wrote is true and I genuinely feel bad for you. What the guy wrote about seeking God is true and I also understand that due to your situation, you feel abandoned and alone, but it doesn't negate the fact that what he said is true.

Since this your baby daddy denied the child, have you reported to the police? You can also contact human rights/welfare agency to take up the case with him cos he doesn't have a right to deny his child's paternity. Don't sit down and be looking, contact the nearest police station and explain your situation, they will drag the guy to welfare and force him to pay for the child's upkeep, after all, you didn't impregnate yourself.

I feel the need to comment on your contribution before making my input.

For me, dragging a baby daddy to the police or Child Welfare Dept should be dependent on whether or not the guy gave the nod for her to see the pregnancy to its full course and not just because she got pregnant and wanted to leverage on that as a leeway out of hard situations. After all, she said she was having it rough and possibly needed respite and may have been led/misled into thinking that stubbornly keeping the pregnancy would alleviate her burdens even after finding out the baby daddy was married.

To the Op, I don't see how giving your daughter up for adoption, in a bid to help her access better life (as promised), is a problem especially if the couple involved are yet to have kids of their own.

It affords you the chance to a fresh start devoid of the huge strains of taking care of a child you are ill-equipped to cater to. Forget the part about paying attention to the details of such exchange. It is worth the try, at least at 22 you would be free to avail yourself to someone new for love and a whole new set of opportunities once assured that your daughter is in a better place.

Good luck as you make the decision

GboyegaD:
You may have to find another time that works well when she is not at home. How is she comfortable staying with you guys for so long considering you stay in a self contain?

Baba, I'd like to assume you honestly do not know, so see the reason:

Generally, we tend to situate with that member of family whose abode or location could avail us strategic positioning in our search for better prospects - jobs, internship, husband search inclusive!

So, if the consenting/agreeable family member whose location could provide such leverage stays in a less comfortable setting, squatters still manage the inconveniences while being hopeful that their search doesn't extend till that period they are declared 'unwanted guest'.

Me sef do am that year na

DaddyRochie1642:
The ashawo Suddenly now has money to cross the nation's border, she might be making that phone call from across the Street

it sure is possible, Seme is a few hours from Igando, and she could cross without travel documents.

But more interestingly, she has the tool of her trade intact and could open office in her new location without extensive documentation. Highest she just has to connect with her friends or her type for Jonquet, Cotonou and shaperly hustling start the next few moments.

enuk80:
Bro, I like your assertion. You nailed the truth. Girls are the most confuse creature on earth. They don't really know what they want.

To be honest, I would disagree with your view about girls being the most confused creatures on earth.

I like to think they are very strategic in choice and positioning, most times seeking peeps they could take advantage of. My view has always been that, the average girl would hang on to a guy, in a relationship, enjoying all the benefits available, while looking around for that very person that ticks all/almost all of their boxes.

Should that prince appear, the unfortunate fellow in the subsisting relationship would be dumped in a manner inconceivable (the flimsiest of grounds or a heartless walkaway).

So when we tell guys to always ensure a live connection between their brains and hearts when in "love" and be gamble-aware (not staking more than you can conveniently afford to lose) in taking care of their babes, e get why!

Swizbank:
Lol, I feel it's staged, maybe

Maybe not.

When I saw my daughter of a little over 2yrs guilt-tripping her mom, while crying, over something she wanted which the mom withheld, and then turning to me to cry in a manner that suggests that I wasnt doing much to protect her from her mom's "oppression", I am inclined to think that it wasn't staged.

On a lighter note, boy and momma must be very good friends for him to be showing her the sitting position that'll make her calm down better/faster.

He'd be a super salesman and very good crisis mediator.

falcon01:
This Guy.

that guy be like "principality" wey dem assign to that righteousness fellow.

The way he posts immediately following the righteousness preacher, most times, would make think they are one and same, meaning to humor us, one with his preaching and the other with his urge for the preacher to correct his tenses, cases and punctuations.

And to Tolulope, you lived well! I can only wish to be so honored when I die.

God rest your soul as the curtain is drawn on the eventful stint, which summarizes your journey through earth.

And may God grant her loved ones, especially her parents the courage to cope with the irreparable loss.

Godlovesyou28:
He is older than me by 2 or 3years.
He was adopted the same year I was born so I doubt he would remember his parents.

Thanks for understanding what this means to me; I mean having my own closure.

when I read your original story I advised you to simply let sleeping dogs lie, especially given the part where your dad seemed unfazed by your threat of suicide.

But, with this exposition of your adopted "cousin," a seminarian older by 3 years, a guy purported to be sired by your dad's brother, being your real brother (by your informant), you can now see how messy the circumstances surrounding your birth is, and how it is ill advised to have burdened yourself with this search that would deliver a more nightmarish and a graver traumatic experience for you.

Here's how gory the exposition is likely to be if you don't track back for your peace of mind: Your late uncle (your supposed cousin's father was likely impotent, and a non-consensual incest produced the both of you while your real mom stayed married to your uncle.

Perhaps, stepmom had to separate from your dad when the scandal broke, such that your kindred resolved to have your dad pay the dowry on your mom to confer legitimacy, while 'adopting' your 'cousin' to clean the slate.

Guess it got complicated when stepmom chose to return, possibly for her kids, after much pleas such that the dowry paid on your real mom had to be returned.

How your uncle and your real mom left the picture is what I am careful not to speculate on. So, you can now understand that asking to know your real mom is tantamount to exhuming a rather dark episode in your dad's life which he can never feel proud to talk about.

I would not ask you to stop the probe now, but the revelations are most likely to leave you broken.............more than you envisage.

Sunrise258:
You are very lucky. My case is a very pathetic one. I finished secondary school in 2002, gained admission in 2009 all to drop out at 400 level (final year). I figured everything was wrong with me but I was alone in the struggle cause by then, I've become an orphan. So I went to one C&S church and dumped myself there for 5 years. The entire church would pray for me and myself too would pray for myself althrough the 5 years until the unexpected was revealed. My uncle's wife, (my dad's immediate elder brother's wife) had collected my glory when I was a baby of 2 years!!! I got it back through the mercy of God a day to my 32nd birthday. Meaning she was with my glory for 30 good years! The 30 formative years of my life!! I've gotten it back now but no job, no degree, no money to do trade or go back to school. I am in my late 30s and useless.

I belong to the school of thought that believes spiritual wickedness exists, but your story is pathetic. Kai!

Godlovesyou28:
I just told my dad I was going to kill myself if he fails to tell me who my mum is and he told me not to mention his name on my death note and Hung up

Sorry about your heartache, but I honestly think this whole episode is one needless hoopla.

Some of us had moms that stayed their married lives with our dads but were absolutely less loving in tending to us, yet we survived and eventually forgave. If it is closure you need just to be sure you have a mom somewhere and you are meeting a seeming lack of cooperation from your dad and informant, why not rest the matter.

Just be consoled that you have grown into an independent young woman in spite of all that went down and move on.

It would be foolhardy to think a stepmom with kids of her own could love you equally when me that was birthed with nine others by same mother wasn't loved anywhere near.

skimena:
I truely like the offer but I'm scared of betraying my neighbor by banging his wife. I'm still thinking about it.

It is pweety difficult to resist the green lights/ensnarement of a beautiful woman, as such, you will need more than the armament of a strong will to not fall in this sin.

If it had happened to me, she'd have been toast, except my instincts gives me a negative vibe. However, the only shield I have against such incursions is not being so approachable for such venture.

Since, she has approached you and 'your mind and body' are not in sync, why not tell her to go out; make herself approachable since she is beautiful; and start a discrete romantic affairs with some other willing partner so you can be saved the agony of gossips and the repercussions of such entanglement.

Bye and large, I'll tag with peeps who have advised you to flee. It doesn't end well!

Ishilove:
All well and good, but I fail to see how this post is connected to the topic on ground.

I see a remote connection.

After all, topic is about criteria for recruiting a fresh batch of 'law enforcement' officers that are capable of conjuring up misery for anyone that crosses their path.

The guy, in conjunction with his family, did well.

Being a freelancer suits the lady and she should be encouraged to flee any marital union.

AfroKnight:
Men, I hope you can see that the love which drives you to consider marriage is never enough. If you must marry, then marry with your eyes open. Never be caught in a situation where you would be unable to provide for your home or would depend on your wife financially. Never let it happen.

You are a man. If you must be vulnerable financially, be vulnerable to your male friends and family members only. E get why.

As a man with valuable experience, you've got a 'thumbs up' for this your input.

A lady could be in a relationship with a jobless man because she has her own support structure- maybe still living with parents, getting stipends from relations while studying or earning, in a paid employment or business, while still believing or hopeful or the guy's potentials. But simple cohabitation for an extended period would expose how deadly it is to be jobless and starting/or being in a marital union.

Someone already posited that women are not exactly wired to be breadwinners, as such not a lot of them would show understanding or provide support if the cycle of joblessness continues (with a dim prospect for employment for the man, due to age and general frustration) or the pangs of poverty begin to aggravate when they're ill-adviced to start a family in such unfortunate situation.

Mehn, it would make better sense to not think of marriage at all until a means of sustaining such union, in the form of finances from the man's end is concretized. Failure to consider this is to have willingly signed up to one of "a thousand ways to die!"

That year, still had some change but had resigned a paid employment and was considering a next move when I moved in with a "sweetheart" after leaving company accommodation.

Three days later, I was thrown out!
Sister couldn't simply deal with having a boyfriend that would not turn up as he used to.

So why should a sensible man risk on such a situation. It can only end in tears!

DAVE5:
Scrutiny by who abeg?


Oga, in this Nigeria, nobody can scrutinize any government cos the government is the judge, accused and defendant, lawyer, law maker, accountant, auditor, tax collector and bribe collector and sharer of stolen funds, so who wants to scrutinize

Make we talk other better things ojere, that money is no longer available for public use the moment it was generated


Obasa of Lagos wey Sahara report bin dey upload him tales like "tales by moonlight" don turn "super story"

This is Nigeria, nothing dey happen

We the masses just sidon dey look like luku luku the lukman

Quite sad I was only looking at the ideal situation, where those vested with the responsibility of oversight would ask probing questions, but no!.....I still sure know that no ideal situation can be replicated in Buhari's Nigeria.

But, thankfully, by Heavens help, we are making incremental progress and breaking limits on a steady. So, however badly they rig the system, we are firmly rooted under the shadows of the Almighty, and our supplies shall never run dry.

DonFreshmoney:
Trust me that the real amount is up to N100billion, they need to exclude the ones that top directors and national assembly will loot before releasing the depleted figure to the public.. even this figure self, quarter will also be looted by those who will spend the money on audio projects in the country

Only good thing about announcing that figure is the fact that aspect of revenue generation can now be up for scrutiny. But that figure, for the said period, is quite laughable.

For better accountability, technology should be deployed so as to substantially plug holes for revenue leak.

Just how would you explain it if me, that's somewhere far below, pays as much as #4,000 in a month for transfers as stamp duty, when they are well over a million account holders doing greater volumes than I do.

Then what about Corporate entities? Just too many thieves in high places to stifle the growth and progress of this country.
