I have lost my taste and smell senses too and it's been like this for like a month now. in fact yesterday I was even taking a drink and was wondering why it tasted so different until I now remembered what I was going through then I calmed down.

if it's covid, then maybe I won't be too surprised cos the Italian index case in Nigeria passed through my company when he landed at Lagos airport.

health wise, so far, I have had malaria which is another symptom but I have recovered from it and am doing fine right now

the only precaution I have been observing so far is not going to visit my elderly relatives as I don't want to be the source of their infection.

presently I take a lot of this our local herb called dongoyaro which is very effective for curing malaria

Hello, please what's your current health status?

How long did you take before your sense of smell came back and what kind of medication were you placed on.

My dad lost his smell sense since July (that's over a month) we're worried. Although I don't Share the same location with him, but I'm worried cos of his age.

How much is your Dutch Rabbit and can it be waybilled

You people should stop doing transactions online. If you must patronize anyone insist on a physical meeting then after inspecting your goods, you can make payment.

I've read countless stories of how people defraud innocent Nigerians whose only crime was to trust them with their hard earned money. And I'll advise you to tread with caution.

Note: I'm in no way accusing the op of fraud, I'm only asking you be careful especially with your money when dealing with anyone online.

If the person's doesn't share the same location with you, let them be. You'd be much safer that way.

This would be a very good idea, at least being in the military would guarantee their safety. NYSC keeps posting corpers to volitile regions thereby endangering their lives.

But if absorbed into the military for a compulsory one year service, they'll be safe cos they'll be based in the barracks and not some open lodge where rapists and thieves would keep paying them unannounced visit from time to time.

And of course the pay check would be bigger cos they're graduates.

I'm fully in support of this suggestion.

Go to the bank and make noise...shout and insult them, tell them that they're incompetent, useless...etc.

The branch manager will come out and sort it out with you. If you keep playing cool with them, they'll keep playing politics with your money till you leave it for them.

I've once been in a similar situation and that's exactly how I got my reversal back.

MelesZanawi:
Did Dangote campaign to you and promise to create jobs? Atiku did.

That is the difference.

He promised to provide jobs if elected. Until then, he's just a regular business man like dangote with zero federal power to effect a change. So he doesn't deserve to be critized.

PoeticMind:
Hello everyone,

I am currently employed but Inhave always had plans to work for a couple of years and start up my own business which I would eventually focus on full time.

I have been able to save up a little in excess of N1 million in about 2 years.

While I don't plan to quit my job just yet, I intend to start up a business (side hustle) which I hope will eventually grow to become my mainstay.

I need advise on viable business(es) I can start up in Lagos that would not adversely affect my job.

Thank you all in anticipation of your helpful suggestions.

PS: I work with a financial institution and I am quite constrained for time on weekdays

@1forall @CrazyMan @Lalasticlala kindly help give visibility to the post. Thanks

Men the school has really upgraded.

[quote author= post=90281856]Impatience is your main problem, I was actually trying to open UNIZIK thread tomorrow, you went online recycling old pictures.[/quote]Don't mind him...my Alma mater for that matter...see the way he rubbished it with silly pics as if he was under pressure to start the thread.

Copenhagen:
Our UNIZIK. Those days in Garuba square..

Abi... where we usually read at night.

The school has really changed...don't know why the op choose to snap girls and leave out world class structures.

Unizik is still the best so far.

ThatFairGuy:
Exactly. That's how they will put the owner in another problem.

If the owner filed an official report to the police concerning the stolen vehicle, he won't be in any problem.

Oselu28:
When ever u experience it,relax don't try to fight or struggle...sleep back or relax a little longer for the rest of your body to wake up. I know it quite scary but being fearless is d key

Exactly.

I used to experience it some years back but it has stopped.

I don't hallucinate like the op and most posters shared during their experience. just that I won't be able to move an inch and most of my experiences happened in the day, when I wake up or I'm almost awake. I don't usually experience it at night.

It's so scary, cos you'll feel all your senses, you'll even hear voices of neighbours, feel movement in the house, like fan, light, music...etc. apart from your breath you won't be able to lift a finger.

And it happens in seconds, between 10-30 seconds.

I thank God that it has stopped.

VickyRotex:
Looks like they (ICSI) intentionally did that to draw people. It's weird though, one minute all the modules are free to access and the next minute they restricted access to some modules.

Advice I gave to people interested is to keep checking back. It could be something they allow for free during a specific time of the day.

As at this moment, the only free one (all module accessible, excluding labs and exam) is the Network Security Specialist. The op posted the link to that above. I no wan chop ban again

Yea... I agree with you on the bolded.

VickyRotex:
The above courses are no longer accessible for free.

So was the initial free headline a hoax targeted at drawing people to their web page?

Denique:
Job opportunities— Pharmacy

At the end of this thread, the onus still lies on you

Are you trying to be sarcastic... how can you say a Pharmacist stands more chance of securing a job than a doctor?

You're obviously joking.

Ribenny:
Dear Nairalanders, pls I need Ur candid advice.
I have a younger brother who just left Sec. sch. I discussed with him about acquiring a skill before continuing his education, he accepted my proposal, but couldn't say exactly the skills he would love to acquire. I currently have two things in mind, Barbing and phone repairing,(I would also be grateful if any one has any other skill he/she considers worthy enough) but, I'm I'm not so sure the one to choose for him, having in mind that these could be the only skill he might likely acquire and build his life on, I decided to seek for advice. pls respectable comrades, do give good reasons for which ever one you would lovingly advice he goes for. thanks.

Tell him to go for barbing. Reason being that once he learns it very well all he needs is some money to rent and furnish a shop in a very good location, and he's good to go. He will be independent and wouldn't have to rely on the skills of anyone to sustain his business.

Phone repairs on the other hand varies, I've fixed a couple of phones I've used in the past before and it can confidently tell you that not all phone technicians actually know what they're doing.

Most can't fix complicated issues and rely on other experienced technicians to help them out this means that the profit will be shared with the more experienced third party. Truth is the business isn't as lucrative as it seems.

Double post

biacan:
Ah collect the money oooo he might work years in that company without saving up to that amount

My dear 5m is mearly peanuts for a start up capital business in Nigeria. No thanks to our miserable economy, insecurity, harsh government policies...ect. one wrong step can make him go broke permanently.

But if he accepts the 100k, he's entitled to loans from the bank of his salary account so he can still take a loan and set up a side business while maintaining his regular job.

With time if the business grows, he can even make more than the 5m.

If the business fails at least he has a job and a salary to fall back to.

The Earth needed to be populated... that's why

MrLekan95:
He's still chatting me up privately, telling me to please give him more time

Well...you have his certificates the best you can do is to give him the time he requested and hope he pays you back.

But considering the fact the he came back here 7 months after you loaned him the money to request for another loan, is a clear indication that you shouldn't expect your money anytime soon.

MrLekan95:
....
His undergraduate cert, NYSC and others like that are with me....

Does the names on the certificates he gave you as collateral tally with the name of the account you sent the money to?

MrLekan95:
when it comes to money, human being are just greedy extraordinarily... I know it's almost impossible for me to get back my money from him again, but........

I saw his posts on almost every section on Nairaland although most have been removed by the mods.

Did he give you his certificates he claimed he'll give as collateral?

MrLekan95:
Yellowgarri is a thief.... he has borrowed N50k from me since last year October and has refused to pay me back, he doesn't even pick my calls or reply my messages anymore.... Please you people should avoid him

So he borrowed money from you October and resurfaced 3 months time to request for more financial assistance....

But why are people like this... someone lends you money based on trust. He doesn't even know you,
neither he hasn't met you before. The least any sensible and responsible person can do is to pay him back as agreed.

This is why so many people find it difficult to prosper in life. So many hitches as a result of their past lives keeps obstructing them from progressing.

ijaw1stson:
I'm still on it. I'm seriously searching for a job at the moment

Stop searching...as a PhD holder you're automatically more qualified than most CEOs HRM, MD... etc. So in reality no employer would hire someone whose more qualified than him.

I'll suggest you try lecturing job, your double Msc along with a PhD in view should boost your chances.

Good luck.

Jóókwa is a greeting meaning well-done, it's used by the Afikpo people of Ebonyi, Ohafia, Abiriba and Bende people of Abia

Just like dejee is a greeting used by Nsukka and Ngwo people of Enugu

Ohafia don't use Jookwa they use Kaa. Jokwa is for Afikpo.

My dear employers aren't finding it funny this period. With the high rate of job loss across the world, if you're lucky to see half salary just manage it and be thankful to God.

This is why I do advice people to always save for the rainy day, have an alternate source of income and not to be fully dependant on pay checks as pay checks can cease any day.

Ishilove come and buy o....it's just 50k small money.

setobaba:
Pls check back in few months to come


Below is the picture of the said puppy

Wao...you've already gotten the dog.

He's so cute...I wish you the best of luck.

setobaba:
Hello nairalnaders I’m moving to my new apartment soon, a self con after my service year ends and I’ve always been a lover of dogs but never had the chance to own one yet, due to their cost of manintenace . So now I’m on a salary scale of 75K and really really plan to get a dog for my self preferably a germane Shepard to start with, I have no experience on how to maintain one So I really need you people help on this. Can I get one with my salary range. Like how much can I assume to budget for the dog monthly and what’s the best breed to start with? I basically knew nothing than I love dog pls help me
Lalasticalala and other mod help with this to the front page

You can't comfortably buy and maintain a germarn Shepard with that income.

Let's be realistic here. Most Gsd puppies are sold between 50-90k depending on the breed.

Feeding alone would be costing you between 5-10k monthly minus veterinary and other miscellaneous. And you say your monthly income is what again?

Truth is you'll be overwhelmed by the huge expenses your little pet is going to give you and most likely run out of cash before the end of the month. Cos you'll have to fend for yourself as well.

The only breed I can recommend for you with that income is the Calabar yellow hound aka ekuke dog. The only money you'll spend is in the purchasing which would be less than 2k. As for feeding and maintenance, you have absolutely nothing to worry about cos the calabar yellow hound is capable of surviving with or without your support.

Good luck.
