ademotors166: Not my opinion, but my fear.

​​​​OººK♓ªªªY OP, ur fear!

@OP, its not actually bad, but one thin I want u 2 check is his self esteem. Marriage is beyond all u mentioned above. Also are u proud of going out with him, I understd d fears of ur family. U need 2 check so many thins and also does he have d intentn of going 2 school? In as much as we down side "going 2 school" its still very important & u know better. Also think of ur kids, even if its part time, u never can tell wen he'll need it.

@OP, ur opinion is a fallacy. My cuzin whose over 40 just got married last year & had her first child this yr.

@OP, u actually created dis thread 4 me also. I'm not only stubborn, but also very defensive&its really not helping cos its affecting me as regards ppl management. Pls also learn sumthin, don't do thins 4 men, do things becos u are personally convinced dat u need 2 do dat thin. I'm working on it badly especially dat defensive nature of mine&I started by learning dat silence is golden. I'll rada shut my mouth dan say nythin cos, I have a terrible mouth. So now if dat evil nature tries 2 show its ugly face, den I control it by being quite.

Is dat wat she gave u? We wud have had better if only u gave me d chance swearie. Its not too late 2!

Congrats dude!

Gosh! I'm jealous! How can Desmond do dis 2 moi! Wat did I do wrong!

For me JT all d way! I dunno why I really don't feel burno mars. I love JT sha!

@Op, wat u did aint surprising @ all&dont be so bothered abt d insults dey are normal. But 2 ans ur questns;
1. She doesn't love u because she obviously took u for a fool.
2. Its not wrong 4 a lady 2 ask 4 money 4rm her boo, but only wen dey are dating. In ur case, it was wrong for u 2 give money 2 sumone who u never saw not 2 talk of dating. Dat was 2 bad!
3. Dat money is wat u call bad debt in accounting. U can never get dat money again, find alternatives.
4. Please leave dat girl alone&face ur studies. D labour mkt aint similing.

juicypetal: Hello peeps, I guess d new mnc is kewalram chanrai group. D application was in April. Search ur sent mail folder for ur application letter. Let's reason together and find out if it's going to be worth it coz I can't travel from east to lagos for a test wt a learning company cos am not dt desperate for job. 1luv

But kewalram Chanrai aint a new multinatnal here in Naija. Dey distribute mistibushi cars. If its dem sha, den its all good.

U don't necessarily have 2 apply on d site of workforce 2 be called 4 a test. U might have applied 2 a company's site&dey send d details 2 dem. Also, u might just have sent ur cv 2 an email addy on an advert u probably saw online or on d papers.

D bottom line is, a company dat gave ur details 2 dem sure have good money 2 pay. Workforce aint cheap @ all. I'm highly optimistic. All d best guys!

@ OP Congrats, u should really be proud of urself. Some ppl will do anything 2 get wat u got. There's nothing more 2 add, calculus and olabode did a good job exposing the attributes of both firms. The rest is left for u 2 deside, all d best dear. May God give u wisdom.

@OP, u're aren't biased @ all infact, u just told her d truth. She's being selfish or is she a learner? Doesn't she know wat marriage entails. Tell her, u can't have ur cake & eat it. She shud choose between her "passionate" job in the UK&her marriage. If not predators like moi are out dere looking 4 preys like her hubby 2 feed on! Tell her say naija babes no dey carry last!

Professor of Political Economy, Pat Utomi, on Wednesday told a Lagos High Court, Ikeja, that former Managing Director of Bank PHB, Mr. Francis Atuche, was being prosecuted out of the desperation of the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr. Lamido Sanusi, to take over the bank.

Utomi was testifying as the first defence witness in the N25.7bn theft charges instituted against Atuche, his wife, Elizabeth, and former Chief Financial Officer of the bank, Mr. Ugo Anyanwu.

The professor, who was a former director of the bank before it was taken over in 2009, described the trial as an “injustice”.

He said there had been a premeditated plan to “steal Bank PHB Plc by government officials” long before the CBN’s assessment in 2009, which adjudged the bank to be under distress.

Utomi said, “I was told that if Atuche was removed that it would be acceptable to CBN and that Bank PHB would be left intact.

“The person that told me is the current CBN Governor. He was a very good friend of mine until recently when these injustices were being carried out. I began to talk openly when the injustice was becoming glaring.”

Utomi, who was led in evidence by Atuche’s counsel, Chief Anthony Idigbe (SAN), said the plot to get Atuche out of the way was so grave that petition on minor allegations of cheque kiting was being sent to the Presidency.

According to him, the desperation to take over the bank was confirmed in the book written by former presidential spokesman for the late President Umar Yar’adua, Mr. Segun Adeniyi.

The book was entitled, ‘Power, Politics and Death: Front-row account of Nigeria under the late President Yar’Adua’.

Utomi maintained that CBN claimed Bank PHB failed distress tests, which the bank was subjected to in quick succession within a short period of time.

The witness said before CBN adjudged Bank PHB as being under distress even when the Fixed Asset of the bank grew from N25bn in 2004 to N378bn and was going to trillions of naira in 2007.

The matter was adjourned till September 16 for Utomi to continue his testimony.

The most interesting thing about this is rating was that the first 8 uni's came from South Africa and 15 of their uni's were also on the list. We have a long way 2 go in Nigeria, may God help us.

The reported separation of celebrated actress, Funke Akindele, and her husband, Kehinde Oloyede, lengthens the list of celebrities with failed marriages, writes TEMITAYO FAMUTIMI

Some days after pictures that Funke Akindele took on location for a new film – in which she acts as a palmwine tapper – circulated on the social media, the story of her separation from her husband, Kehinde Oloyede, broke on Monday.

Although rumours that usually trail weddings of entertainment celebrities demand that one exercise caution while reacting to such information, the channel from which the divorce scare came made it look too real. Oloyede relayed it on his Facebook page.

He wrote, “It’s with heavy heart that am announcing the separation of me nd ma wife Mrs Olufunke Akindele, we’ve both agreed to go our separate ways coz of irreconcilable differences. we still best of friends nd we 4ever remain gud friends.”

While he later sounded diplomatic in the statement, another one he posted on the page was far from being cordial as he seemed to have regretted ever going into the union.

Akindele has not personally made any public statement on the development, but the fact that she has also ejected ‘Oloyede’ from her BB tag compounded the fear of many.

Based on this separation, she has found herself in the class of artistes that have experienced failed marriages. On the list are notable acts such as Ayo Adesanya, Kate Henshaw, Eucharia Anunobi, Fathia Balogun, Monalisa Chinda, Doris Simon and Shan George.

As expected, the news of the divorce is attracting a lot of attention. In online reactions, some followers of the entertainment industry have, however, expressed shock, with some arguing that actresses do not have enough understanding of what marriage entails.

Perhaps what made the matter attract much interest is the pomp built around the wedding when it held in Lagos last year. Although a man said to be Akindele’s publicist has been quoted as having confirmed the separation, the actress herself has not spoken about it.

A search on her social media pages too did not record any comment from her concerning it.

I'm sorry, this babe of urs doesnt love u, from ur post, she hasnt shown u love in nywys. To me, u're in a parasitic relationship, she's just getting&not giving. I dont think u're d man 4 her, she needs a man dat can put her on her toes, she seems to have taken u 4 granted and dats y she behaves like dat. This could be as a result of d way u started with her.

Leave her till d end of this month & I bet u she might not call.

eightsin: I'm a young guy of 25 who completed his NYSC June 2013. Though I'm yet to secure a job,I move on quite well.
. There is this beautiful girl I met three weeks ago. Our meeting wasn't romantic but there was this indescribable spark between us. I went to her moms provision store to get some items and there she was,looking ravishing and irresistible... I fell for her that instant. We exchanged pleasantries and I took her phone number.
from that day, ther hasn't been a day she doesn't call to ask about my wellbeing although not as often as I do call her.
I started asking her out a week after we met but she has been rejecting me. She claims she likes me a lot but she doesn't want to go into a relationship that will lead nowhere. I made her understand that I have good intention for her.
To cut the story short, she has come up with another excuse that she is not good enough for me that I deserve better. She kept saying that she is yet to gain admission into a tertiary institution while I have finished and even served. I tried making her understand that it ain't a bad thing,that while she is schooling,I'd be working for our future.moreover,she is still very young.she is just 21. But she said she doesn't buy the idea. That I should look for someone who will be of no stress to me. Last time she called me, I brought up the issue and all she said was that she likes me a lot but I should forget about her.
. Now, this is the problem, initially, I was thinking she was playing hard to get but at this juncture I'm really confused. Should I let her go or should I keep pestering her to give in to my proposal? Please I need advice. I really like her and would want to work some thing out with her. God willing,I want to make her my wife.

Bro, go get a job wen u have one she wudnt think twice!

Bro, go get a job wen u have one she wudnt think twice!

peggykorol: Ok I don't even know where to start.last nite when I was about putting on my gen set it didn't come on.so I noticed their was a problem.I called my hubby by 6pm cos he was hanging out with his friends.I told him to come assist us since we were in darkness(was I wrong)he said ok but didn't return till 11pm.and when he returned he fixed it but I was already asleep and very upset with him because where he was wasn't far from the house.this morning I saw a condomn in hiS jean pocket he wore out last night.I asked him abt it and he said it has been in his car.I have been d one using d car since he wasn't in Nigeria for a short time and am very sure their was no condom in d car.we started arguing and he said I was interrogating him.he said going out with a condom is ths safest thing he can do for himself and then I said that means its ok for your wife to move out with it too abi.he got upset and started hitting me,flogging me with his belt and his shoe.now my point is since we got married this is the 4th time he has slapped me and the first he is beating me like this.he beat me up like a child even locking our room door .finally he hit my head on the stabilizer in our room[b][/b].where did I go wrong.how can a man who claims he loves me so much beat me up such way.he said I talk to him like he is my houseboy.I don't see myself forgiving him and don't see myself having any intimacy with him either.the feelings I have for him keeps reducing.I really don't know what to do

, Madam, life has no duplicate o! Pls try as much as possible 2 avoid arguments with him, ur husband needs prayers. The problem is we women think we shouldnt pray 4 such things, but prayers work like magic. Also, if its getting too much just kindly leave and give urself some space b4 he kills u. Dont die in silence, marriage is to be enjoyed and not endured.

Na wa o! Some women will just be giving themselves unnecessary hypertension sha, as if d man never had a life b4 he married u!

joechima: But I feel I can keep talking to her until say next two years so we can get married

Guy, u're a comedian. Who told u'll get job in d next 2yrs? Besides, allow d babe go uni haba, do u think she'll also gain admission in d next 2yrs? Guy, marriage is 4 MEN and not 4 BOYS. Seems u dont no wat marriage entails, u better give urself and her time 2 plan well. Ur post dey make person laff I swear!

ledafaze: Guy, respect yourself and think about jail term for child abuse things... You say 17 Years? come on...

Besides, u're embarrassing us telling us 2 advice u on the attitude of a 17yr old babe

Sincerely, some pregnant women make pregnancy look like its a disease. U need to see d way dey behave @ times, it can be repulsive.

Wow, quite a long one though but took my time 2 read nywy. Bro, two wrongs cannot make a right, ur case isn't surprising as there are many more married women who also believe the man is to take full responsibility of their kids without them contributing one naira to them. The thing is, thank God u have a Father who is willing and able to provide for ur needs,so this has not stopped u from achieving some of ur goals in life, see their marriage as a something u need to learn from rather than transfer the aggression on innocent ladies who are interested in having a serious or good relationship with u.

Also, u cant always have ur cake and eat it. The most important thing is ur Father is @ least providing, dont interfere in their marriage cos u will never be objective rather, pray for them and also pray for wisdom so u dont allow wat is happening affect ur relationship with other's. Its advisable u call ur mother, they have made their mistakes, it will be too bad if u have a family raised in this same manner wen u now have the opportunity to witness such and learn from the situation.

Its so sad we underestimate the power of prayers, but I tell u the things we tend to think prayers wont solve are the things it solves the most. Call ur mum, u can also sit both of them down and air ur views to them rather than nursing the pain and exploding it on other ppl. They are ur parents, ur mum loves u more than u can ever think, so sit her down and talk. Communication will solve alot of problems like urs and dont involve outsiders like uncles or aunties.

Finally, U're being a bad child!

What an oxymoron.

Thanks Jarus, I already found answers to wat I was looking 4! Thanks a-bunch!

Thank u so much, that means the system I'm implementing this scenario on was actually correct, it deducted d withholding tax b4 allowing me 2 pay d vendor which made it 60000. Can u analyse how d VAT will be treated from the perspective of the vendor and also my own?

@Jarus, pls pardon my too many questions, I just dont like making stupid mistakes especially when they can be avoided. Here's my issue, please analyse this scenario for me.

A vendor brings his invoice, the cost of the goods supplied is 60000, he charges me VAT of 5% which now makes d total amount 63000. Now this vendor is also to be charged a withholding tax of 5%, which is also 3000, how much will I pay the vendor?

Please I need answers asap!
