Sleekcode:
It's easy to get Facebook to reply u.

Use a from business manager u can contact their live support.

Okay I'll try to do it

Liquidpenis:
Oh .. this option is not available on my Instagram account only on Facebook and so I pay for my Instagram ad through Facebook using payu although I've stopped now because my ad account keeps getting disabled on Facebook, and this happens most time when I have a lot of prepaid balance .. I had 87,000 on the last one disabled last week.

Sorry for you loss bro, you might not get any response from Facebook, I've tried contacting them unendingly for 2 weeks.

I suggest you contact Payu as I think they are responsible.

I've tried searching for their customer care line and support lines, but there's no way to contact an agent working there

Liquidpenis:
Is payu available on IG

Abi u pay for your ad via Facebook and controls them through meta business suite

It is. Here's the screenshot

During Sunday night's Academy Awards show, Will Smith made headlines for smacking comedian Chris Rock after he made a bad joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, while presenting on stage. The video has gone viral, but now some are wondering if the moment was staged.

A clip of the viral smack has been slowed down and has many social media viewers questioning if this was a publicity stunt or a real hit out of anger.

His hand barely grazed him. Actors, especially action actors like Will Smith, know how to pull a punch (or slap) This was staged."

The clip has left the internet divided.

"This is what I have been saying too. Oscars are so dead, nobody cares. Yet it's all everyone is talking about today. Hmmmm," said @DogeDontPlay.


Others say the slap was real.

"Please give me a reason why they would stage this?" wrote one commenter.

@ClayTravis said: "Honestly, Chris Rock taking an open handed undefended hit live on TV from a dude way bigger than him and finishing the awards presentation is the most impressive thing he’s ever done in his career."

The exchange began on Sunday when Rock took aim at Pinkett Smith’s shaved head, saying, "Jada, I love you. ‘G.I. Jane 2,’ can’t wait to see it, all right?" Rock’s reference was made from the 1997 film "G.I. Jane," starring Demi Moore, who shaved her head to portray a fictional Navy SEAL candidate.


Pinkett Smith revealed in 2018 that she was diagnosed with alopecia areata, a condition when the immune system attacks hair follicles and causes hair loss. She has often discussed the challenges of hair loss on Instagram and other social media platforms.

The joke did not sit well with Will Smith, who later returned to the Oscars stage to accept his first-ever Academy Award for his role as tennis dad character Richard Williams in "King Richard" and delivered a tearful apology to several people — excluding Rock.

Rock has reportedly declined to press charges, according to Los Angeles police.

Critics are sounding off on the participation of trans female athletes in girls sports following University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas' win in the 500-yard freestyle at the NCAA Championships on Thursday.

Thomas, who previously swam for the men's team before transitioning to female in 2019 and sparking a national debate, finished the race with a time of 4:33.24, more than a full second ahead of second place finisher Emma Weyant.

Those critical of Thomas' participation took to Twitter following the swimmer's controversial win, with some arguing it set a bad precedent that would ensure the "murder of women's sports", and others congratulating Weyant, arguing she was the real winner.)

LIA THOMAS WIN AT NCAA WOMEN'S SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIPS IN ATLANTA DRAWS PROTESTORS


"Women (and men) are committing a slow and purposeful murder of women's sports," added NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck.


Some critics questioned why the NCAA and universities or colleges would allow men to compete in women's sports in the first place, arguing that it didn't make sense. Others lamented that there weren't more female athletes speaking out against the inclusion of athletes like Thomas.


"I have looked at this Lia Thomas situation objectively, with an open-mind and really read as much as possible on it. It will never make sense that Penn and the NCAA let Thomas compete with women. It just never will. And it serves as an incredibly scary precedent," wrote local Pittsburgh radio show host Colin Dunlap.


Writer Kimberly Ross felt similarly, tweeting, "Lia Thomas is a male. He won not because his skills improved, but because he’s stronger and faster than the actual female competitors. Period. It’s not a positive. It is NOT progress. It’s a slap in the face to women and girls, and it pisses me off. I don’t accept it."

"It’s sad how female athletes won’t speak out against the inclusion of Lia Thomas. They’re either so afraid to get canceled or they don’t think males have a genuine physical advantage over females," wrote journalist Ian Miles Cheong.

Pfft, simple as that. You know without me, crew, that....

�� People are selfish creatures who only like to talk about themselves.

Women are the same people, so! Talk about her, but learn how to ask the right questions.

There was:
- Where do you work?
- What kind of music do you listen to?
- Where were you on vacation?

Became:
- Do you love your job? What do you love it for? What are your professional plans?
- Why do you love this music? What emotions does it evoke in you? Do you think this performer is a genius?
- How was your day on vacation? What impressed you the most? What will I see if I go there?

OK?!

Do not give her a Gestapo interrogation, ask not about the facts, but about her EMOTIONS and FEELINGS�� In between, tell her about yourself.

Read Larry King's book How to Talk to Anyone.

Getting a woman to talk is a pretty easy skill to learn. Ask a typical questions and you can't shut her up.

It is cheap scam to trick desperate people

Someone making 1m monthly doesn't HV time to post it on nairaland

That's actually my thought sef.

Recently I've been trying to wrap my head around something that's very common nowadays, i have about three numbers belonging to people that claim they do affiliate marketing, the other day one said i should message him on IG, that'll he'll teach me how to make close to 200k monthly as a beginner, he said he actually makes close to 500k monthly and above through affiliate marketing. Then he sent me a YouTube link to his video explaining affiliate marketing.

After i watched the video he sent me a link so we could move the conversation to WhatsApp, then i said I'm interested.
All of a sudden he sent me link saying i should buy a course of 10k o.
I was like wasn't it meant to be free.

And i have three other contacts that do the affiliate stuff always saying people should join such online class for 5k or more. And most of them actually use the same pictures uploading it on WhatsApp status, claiming it's one of their students monthly payment doing affiliate marketing.

My question is why would you claim to be making thousands of naira every month, with millions every year but still upload so much on your status wanting people to pay 5k,10k, so you could teach them?.

It's actually bullshit in my opinion.

fergie0o1:
Manchester United’s Mason Will John Greenwood (born October 01, 2001) could be in a pile of trouble following allegations of abuse by his now ex-girlfriend Harriet Robson.

Ms Robson, took to her Instagram stories to expose the scars she bears on her body, allegedly from attacks by the 20-year-old Man United forward.

In several posts on her official Instagram account which has now been deleted, Harriet is seen covered in blood and with bruises on her body. Along with a video, she wrote, "To everyone who wants to know what Mason Greenwood actually does to me."

In the wake of the accusations, Manchester United quickly released a statement and said they would not comment further until all the facts had been established.



Greenwood, a United academy graduate is no stranger to controversy.

In September 2020, he and Man City youngster Phil Foden were kicked out of the England National team after breaching Covid-19 protocols in Iceland.

This is after a video popped up on social media, exposing the two meeting girls in their hotel room after a Nations League encounter in Reykjavik.

God on earth ni ... No one's supporting abuse, harassment or rape. But stuffs like this are always complicated when it comes to boyfriend and girlfriend. There's always more to the story. If Greenwood is guilty and jail is what he deserves it's fine. But fear women!!!

Wow wasn't expecting this to blow up on nairaland �

Clemens Westerhof actually saw this coming and told the Super Eagles to mind their business. See the results now. Absolutely shambles.

"He must be the policeman of the team. He should police them well, no beer, no women, no distractions. Then he must protect them from government officials. Now Nigeria may want to send delegations. Some may even come when they are training and they will stop training because the minister wants to talk with them.

No way; that must not happen. Government officials can pass their message through the federation, they must leave the players now to concentrate. They must not be in the same hotel with the players. The most difficult job now is how to hold them together as a family and protect them from many officials who may cause unnecessary distractions"

These bird-plane collisions, known as bird strikes, occur thousands of times each year. Nearly all of these are fatal for the birds involved. ... Occasionally, though, large birds can get sucked into airplane engines, causing significant damage and sometimes even causing a crash.

Front sit and snapchat geng. Honestly I don't feel sorry for them anymore. They keep warning girls about how they move ,but yet several girls are still ready to go with just any guy as long as you look fly and rich.

Ammishaddai:
Homosexuality is a mental illness that stems from hormone imbalances which directly affect the mental view and state of a person, to see himself/herself as what he is not . However, mordern-day society now chooses to reject this fundamental truth and categorize them as people who were assigned "wrong gender identities " from birth . This is crazy. And it shows that is no boundary between what we call sane or insane .

That's one thing I don't get. Why the weird agenda

Johnholmes:
It was once considered a psychological illness but was later removed

I've tried searching online but can't see anything saying it's a mental illness

No hate against them and I'm not homophobic. I've had friends that were masculine built,talked like men and had girls who were full blown females crushing and having feelings for dudes.. but all of a sudden started acting the opposite, male acting feminine, females acting masculine,.
But to say the truth why aren't they given psychological help and why do they feel it's Normal been gay.

Do you think it's Normal or a mental issue turning gay?

Enugu is surrounded by water. the technology is there. what is lacking is willingness, without siphoning money.

Absolutely, I'm a student here in Enugu, there's water here in Enugu (Agbani and Maryland). They are less concerned about getting water here in Enugu. Someone will build a house and not even think of drilling a borehole. We have a well In our compound and it's always full, during dry season. Most individuals and tenants are waiting for the landlord to run a borehole or the government to do so.

Before you start laying foundation of a building, you should have tried or checked where you can get water from, but no they won't.
Most people in Enugu barely take their bath.
PEOPLE IN ENUGU ARE ACTUALLY TURNING THIS ISSUE OF WATER SCARCITY TO A NORM.

Here are a few responses

Jesus date of birth is not recorded in scripture

The 25th December was the birthday of a god whose emblem was a cross... go figure!

Jesus death and ransom is what is important, not really the day he was born. It keeps the perception of him as a helpless baby It's a commercial trap that encourages gift giving to receive and I've seen too many ungrateful people to think I'm missing out on anything important

Here's another
[b]To me, Christmas is an over-glorified "holiday", that, according to Old Christmas Songs, Is, SUPPOSEDLY, the "Most Wonderful Time of The Year", when, in reality, it's not and is just a bunch of fabricated lies, so that those big-name companies, can fatten their wallets, with money. Money that we give them.

Also, Christmas brings out THE ABSOLUTE WORST, in people. Happiness? Ha! Greed is what Christmas is really about: Wasting your hard-earned money, on stuff that you don't really need and are better off without. Plus, who's to say, that after Christmas is over, the stuff that you either bought or received, ends up not being used, gets broken or thrown away OR you end up returning it? These are all possibilities.
Another bad thing, about Christmas, is: Decorations. So much effort and time gets put into it, yet, when the holidays are over and we celebrate the new year, the novelty of those decorations, soon wears off and is taken down. Plus, whatever holiday stuff happened, its novelty soon wears off, too. Basically, it was all for nothing.

Also, do you want to know, what REALLY irks me, about Christmas? Donations. Preparation. Cooking. Big Meals. None of which I do, thankfully. Christmas is just, basically, Thanksgiving, but in the month of December and with gifts, that you may or may not even want. Plus, the stuff that you "want for Christmas", you can just buy, with your own money, which makes this "holiday" even more fake, pointless and unrealistic.

That's why I don't celebrate Christmas. Not anymore. Because I outgrew it. If I want stuff, I can always save up the money I need and buy it, when I have the money.[/b]


Why don't you celebrate Christmas?

To win 3 billion dollars, you have to survive 24 hours getting chased by a horror villain of your choice. Who are you picking?
