He is my electrician. Thank you very much.

I liked his work because was neat so we later started gisting and bonding. I use to help him before I found out how heartless he can be.

Help his kids then if possible help their mom so she can take care of them

I would appreciate if people learn from this, kindly move this to front page.

My experience happened over 5yrs ago
Jjc in Lagos I found short cuts for all my waka to avoid hold up and plenty transport
Was staying at ifako gbagada, there's a short cut from the express and through one street and one compound with a 'hill at the back that cuts into gbagada

Anyways was headed to an all night got to the express and after waiting for awhile a bus to oshodi showed up, now I normally don't rush or jump to enter a vehicle but I did this time around.
I entered the back seat and appears I was sandwiched by the people already there
After driving for a few minutes I think I heard offload your pocket, truth be told the events inside the bus are a blur, I sha chopped some slaps while they offloaded my pockets dropped us off at one junction and sped off,
A lady lost over 15k, me I was too vexed, almost didn't go for the all night again
A good Samaritan heard the woman's wailing and picked us up, I believe he dropped me close to church.

I was upset all through, I'm pretty sure I didn't pray again, was thinking how in the world did this happen?
Where were all the Angels, this ought not to have happened
In my anger I forget 3 things
1. My life wasn't taken nor was I hurt physically
2. I had money they didn't find that got me back to the house
3. My phone also wasn't found by them
In hindsight I remain grateful to THE LORD for HIS KINDNESS and MERCY and LOVE

With the launching of Operation Positive Identification, it became eminent for lots of citizens residing in the Northeast in general and Maiduguri in particular including myself to apply for National Identity Card, I made a personal research on centers located in Maiduguri and found two, NIMC Headquarters located close to Maiduguri International Airport and a branch located inside Ramat Polytechnic.

Lucky for me, my house was less than a kilometer from RamPoly. On Monday 30th September I went to the NIMC Center around 7:30AM, met some people already there also, I wrote my name on the list, I was number 63.

The NIMC staffs came around 8:30AM, collected the list and proceeded to begin the days job, surprisingly instead of calling the names on the list, they started calling people the Rector sent, those HOD's sent, those senior staffs sent, I shook my head and in my mind I said Nigeria way, "wetin man go do brother".

We waited there and I heard others of being at the Center as early as 5AM, others slept outside the center just to make sure their names where first on the list, I spent the whole day there and I couldn't register.

The next day being a public holiday, I didn't bother going there. On Wednesday, I woke up early as usual, skipped my morning exercises and chores and went straight to the center as early as 6AM, I was number 20 on the list, yeah I still met people there even as early as that, the staff came around the usual past 8, collected the list as usual but still didn't use it.

They neglected us and where just attending to their own people who came later own, I stayed till 2pm when better hunger start to dey wire me, I left unable to register.

The next day was the same, skipped breakfast, chores and exercises, went early but still we were not attended to, It was frustrating, the staffs said their machines developed fault, there was no paper to even print but still yet they attended to those who came with exotic cars and knew people above, as usual na the Naija way.

This morning I still went there, it was important I get the National Identity Card due to situations on ground, you couldn't travel without it, you will be profiled as a terrorist, today they said only students will be attended to, luckily I came with my school I.D, I joined the queue and when it came to my turn, I was turned back, they said only students of Ramat Polytechnic will be attended to, and unfortunately I was schooling at UniMaid,
I pleaded to be considered but still yet I was turned back, I waited to see if I might be favored to register but when I checked time, I couldn't wait any longer, today is Friday and I had to prepare for Juma'at prayer, I plugged in my headphone, played Erigga's latest song featuring M.I Abaga and Sami named Erigma and decided to post this while walking home.

I will still go back on Monday, But this is what lots of people pass through just to get their National Identity Card, The authorities should please increase the Registration Centers In The Northeast.

Maiduguri, Borno State.

1. Try other centers or units
2. Reach out to them on Twitter, mention some prominent people in Nigeria, NGOs etc
3. If you visit another state, you could attempt to register....

Here is the story. I sent two laptops to a cousin in UniPort through the United States Post Office Priority package and paid about $120 for postage.

Upon arrival of the package, the Nigeria Post Office called her to come pick up the package with N25k and I was like is this a joke or what?
Is this how it is done or is this extortion and what can be done about it?

Justi4jesu would have done it for way cheaper I hear

You won't understand. Thanks for the suggestions, though.

I suggested telegram first because of anonymity.... You're welcome

UyaiIncomparabl:
Ok dear. I'll check. I wish there was an easier platform for you to communicate.

There is, telegram, WhatsApp, fb etc

because I was in the company of some people few days ago and a conversation of something similar to this came up and most of the guys there were saying that can never happen. I didn't tell them I have done something like that even recently .

tell them, your friends who knows they may change or reason the matter
