Wahala.

Though I support anti-cash measures, this one is extreme, as our systems are not fully mature.

50k would ave been much better.

For instance, my card has failed several times, while out on dates, so I always withdraw enough cash to cover the outing.

I believe we will grow from it.

I've been living with my maternal aunty and her husband for over two months now and I can testify that the family is good; no quarels; no disagreements and no any form of fight.

My aunty's husband is kind and gentle likewise his wife and they both treat me with care but what disturbs me is that i suspect my aunty is cheating. Whenever my uncle travels she brings in a man and tells me that this is her brother..she would usher him into the bedroom and they'd spend good time with before coming out. The man has never visited when her husband is around.

I don't want to reveal it as she'll see it as act of betrayal but i want her husband to know. How do I go about it?

I would advise you to mind your business.

Mine was in 1998, but I barely understood what was happening, all I just knew was that we were lost to Denmark then.

2002 was the first year I started watching worldcup that I truly understood.

HI, I want to know if it is possible for me to get a job without my school original certificate, but with my Nysc discharge certificate and statement of result because I am yet to pay my graduation fee and schools are on strike.
I also need a job, a good paying job. I am a Bsc(Ed) degree holder in Chemistry, any good paying job please.. I have 3 years experience in teaching. I can also start somewhere if the pay is attractive.
Thank you.

Yes you can, till today, I have not given my organisation my original certificate, I have not collected it from my school too.

If it's in a country where things are working, the fire service department will be able to put off the fire within limited time. But naija is a curse.
My daily prayers is that Nigeria should never happen to my loved ones and those with progressive minds.
Thank God I have escaped.

How did you know fire fighter wasn't the one that put off the fire? For your information, they came with two trucks immediately they were called upon. And this was around 2am, they had to go fetch another truck full load of water before they could put off the fire.

Hello Baba, Yahoo yahoo and Rituals..

Modified:To those doubting me, you can come to modakeke and confirm for yourselves..

Oga, I will refute this your claim. Modakeke is expensive jo. I lived at Apalara Street which is close to Modakeke during my undergraduate days at oau. The houses you are confirming as of low prices to rent are those ancient homes, not the newly built ones.

As at 2018, a room selfcon in a building close to the place I lived was 100k. One room apartment with shared kitchen and toilet was 50-60k.

Maybe it's being a while you travelled home.

Kingkum:
Where in benue did you buy it?

I don't really know the name of the place, but it's not too far from dangote cement plant.

Since yesterday, I have been working in Benue State, and I see the reason why they are called the food basket of the nation.

A basket/bucket cost 200 Naira

Anyways age is just a number, happy married life to them!

I am of marriageable age, young and cool. Can we take it up from here.

JOACHINpedro:
I'm currently serving, omo na skills I dey equip myself with.
I got no time to save money yet, cus i had only little skill before starting.
I risked my allawee in food stuff and one skill. Will start saving small percentage of allawee in my 4th month(next month)
God bless you

Guy, if I go advise you, even though you wan dey find one skill to do. Please, also try apply for job before the end of your services year. Thankfully, most organisations do online interviews, with that, you can apply and do interviews online even before you pass out. Never lie about yourself during interview.

Reason why alot of ex-corpers still look for job after services is because they wait till after services before they start applying for job.

Look for job platform like LinkedIn.com, jobbberman.com, etc and other whatapps and telegram job channel. This will give you information about available jobs and might help you in getting a place before services end. Gracias!!!!

Home Grammar Punctuation How to use a comma (,)

How to use a comma (,)
A comma marks a slight break between different parts of a sentence. Used properly, commas make the meaning of sentences clear by grouping and separating words, phrases, and clauses. Many people are uncertain about the use of commas, though, and often sprinkle them throughout their writing without knowing the basic rules.

Here are the main cases when you need to use a comma:

in lists
in direct speech
to separate clauses
to mark off certain parts of a sentence
with 'however'
Using commas in lists
You need to put a comma between the different items in a list, as in the following sentences:

Saturday morning started with a hearty breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and French toast.

The school has a vegetable garden in which the children grow cabbages, onions, potatoes, and carrots.

The final comma in these lists (before the word ‘and’) is known as the ‘serial comma’. Not all writers or publishers use it, but it is used by Oxford Dictionaries – some people refer to it as ‘the Oxford comma’. Using it can make your meaning clearer. Take a look at this sentence:

My favourite sandwiches are chicken, bacon and ham and cheese.

It isn’t entirely clear from this sentence whether the writer is listing three or four of their favourite sandwich fillings: is ‘ham’ one of their favourites and ‘cheese’ another, or is it ‘ham and cheese’ that they like? Adding an Oxford comma makes the meaning clear:

My favourite sandwiches are chicken, bacon, and ham and cheese.

Using commas in direct speech
When a writer quotes a speaker’s words exactly as they were spoken, this is known as direct speech. If the piece of direct speech comes after the information about who is speaking, you need to use a comma to introduce the direct speech. The comma comes before the first quotation mark. Note that the final quotation mark follows the full stop at the end of the direct speech:

Steve replied, ‘No problem.’

You also need to use a comma at the end of a piece of direct speech, if the speech comes before the information about who is speaking. In this case, the comma goes inside the quotation mark:

‘I don’t agree,’ I replied.

‘Here we are,' they said.

There are two exceptions to this rule. If a piece of direct speech takes the form of a question or an exclamation, you should end it with a question mark or an exclamation mark, rather than a comma:

‘Stop him!’ she shouted.

‘Did you see that?’ he asked.

Direct speech is often broken up by the information about who is speaking. In these cases, you need a comma to end the first piece of speech (inside the quotation mark) and another comma before the second piece (before the quotation mark):

‘Yes,’ he said, ‘and I always keep my promises.’

‘Thinking back,’ she added, ‘I didn’t expect to win.’

Oga yemobrown, abeg come finish the lecture on the usage of comma, please.

I have been having issue with it and will appreciate if you complete the other usage of it.

Thanks.

I remember back then in 1994..

There was this curvy babe in my hostel back then in Uniben. I tried all my best to make this girl mine, cause she gat the flesh in the right proportions all over her.

Tall fine girl with smooth soft skin, tried all my toasting skills but girl didn't even look my face.

But I got to lash the babe, that one time I mistakenly stumbled on her riding this touch light will squirting and moaning loud at the same time in the bathroom @ around 2am in the night, when I woke up to take a pee.

That was how I kept lashing her. I later married her. She can't just get enough my fat preeqq.

Na your wife you describe so oo... lol

I WILL GET BACK

Kriss216:
Keep deceiving yourself.

In one of your posts last year, you said you're a private school teacher. Today, you're on your own. Educational consultant

It's called growth

XullySwt:
Happy new year Everyone.
Please am in need of a job, i reside in abuja lost my hubby have a kid to career for... Please help a sister. I am in my late 20s, with BSc in Accounting. Thanks in anticipation.

Dust your CV, if need be review it to meet current CV standards and keep applying like your life depends on it. You might be called for an interview or find a job immediately.

If you are on telegram, search for this page, job planet, and join the group, you will see jobs that meet your requirement. Also, update your linkedln profile and on the job notification there.

I wish you all the very best in your search. And above all, keep a positive mindset, believing that, for every rejection, there is a better acceptance waiting.

1. To always believe in oneself

2. While believing in oneself, one need to keep updating and developing him/herself

3. To never look down on anyone

4. To show love and care to humans. I got to know this when I asked the Aboki man that I do buy water from about his sleep. The way he smiled while answering me tells me that we all are important.

5. Save and invest

6. To always pray for Nigeria bcus in so doing, you are praying for yourself because you are a Nigerian

7. Although alot of men insult women on the Internet space on a daily, don't take it too serious as a guy for there are good gals out there, if you find one, hold her tight.

And finally, attachment is the cause of pain and joy

So the traders take their goods where they will sell less?
As a businessman, you take your goods where the price is higher.

Complete nonsense.

Try to understand what I am saying. I am not saying they should take their wares to where it is cheaper. I am only pointing to the reason why it is cheaper in the North.

Shey dem dey plant cassava for North West and North East

Cause I no understand why garri is more expensive in the South than North

The reason garri is more expensive in the south here is that, the north have varieties interms of garri, they rarely consume it as we do here in the south.

I am not married but I thought it would be nice to read from married women to know or understand why this occurs. It might help some married men self reflect and self correct where needed, if a particular situation applies to them. For example if it's poor hygiene, selfish or poor performance in bed, not providing, etc............ I am just speculating.

I followed Gaggii's thread on this same issue/topic, it was one of the most educating and entertaining threads I have come across on NL. It was delightful to see grown men being candid and vulnerable about their realities. I laughed hard at some comments, shook my head at comments from oversabi and ITK men, who aren't even married and one comment in particular broke my heart. See comment below;



Even though the user is a complete stranger I felt bad reading this, especially the words in bold. I think as women we underestimate how much men would really like to feel appreciated, complimented and loved (even if it's through sex). There were valuable lessons from Gaggii's thread and I appreciate the education in male psychology it provided me. A similar education (in female psychology) from married women, for men, would be appropriate. Let's learn from each other, but, I understand why some women may be reluctant to participate/share. The trolling, bullying and insults on the forum can be something else, especially towards women.

Please share a link of Gaggii's tread

Hello friend..! You said you have experience in accounting and you have not been getting offer.... I think you have been getting offer but you are the one selecting, looking for the job that the salary will compete with shell oil company... Accounting jobs are not hard now! These days, your working experience is what count, addictional qualification is just an added advantage... Don't waste your time on ICAN...

Abeg, ICAN count ooo. See eh, if you get the experience and you never dey chattered, you no go dey collect high paying jobs. I myself I am not chattered but the amount disparity between the chattered accountants and non chattered at my place of work differs.

Since i became knowledgeable, Petroleum Prices in the EAST are highest in the Land...and they don't protest. IGBO people strong ABEG!!

But in Northern Nigeria where everything is "gawernment" petrol stations beg people to buy fuel.

Beacuse they voted "Buhari" and they dare not go against him as perpetual cowards, the SW would have erupted if the incessant increases was done by "Jonathan"!!...Imagine buying fuel @ 162 a liter and still the EAST is buying @200 without issues!!...AGAIN IGBO people strong abeg!!

I say this repeatedly, the SE is the "live wire" of a zoo system that favors zombies and miscreants.

Without the SE the zoo will crumble...and sincerely speaking the zoo must crumble...Tufiakwa!!

The people shouting 1 Nigeria are people who are stereotyped to be dependent on Government for everything ...even the air they breathe!!

Shameless zombies without vison...Tufiakwa!!

So because say something dey expensive for South east, Dem Don become the life wore of the nation. I beg to disagree
