Whose business is it if it annoys them? Only in Nigeria.
They're being paid for the service, where the passenger sits is none of their business. I have also seen drivers that don't like one sitting in the front,they feel you'll monitor their driving closely.

Pride indeed... the little things you all consider pride in this country sha

Dats how 1 silly lagos keke man refused to help me put my load in d boot.
honestly d load was heavy n I dragged it to dat point. Lifting it was just not possible.
By the time i was through with him he came down n we lifted d load.

got to my destination he started again. How he can't bring d load down. I sat der silently waiting for him to make a nasty move. 15mins after wasting his time he brought down d load.

my conclusion THEY ARE VERY LAZY N LOUSY. fyi its wasn't an igbo man. If it were they do there work provided you pay!

stainless239:
lol
fair enough

BoomBoom101:
A lot of pple don't know that sitting at at back seat, forming owners corner annoys these drivers. I've realised it a long time ago and stopped.
My MD/CEO who always sit beside his driver told me never to sit at d back of a driver because it's just pride that makes no sense. He said the most comfortable seat in a car is the front seat because u can adjust it to any position

TonyeBarcanista:
You are a wise woman...

Musliu Obanikoro did it when he was Lagos Island LGA Chairman. He burnt down the popular City Hall (Seat of Power) when he was vacating office. LOL

How is Dangote your son?

0079jaBond:
Well, you're right to some degree but the truth about being a leader is that you cannot always act right. While some decisions or actions can be seen as "unfair", others may be regarded as just, so to say. However, what matters most is for the fellow to simply heed to instruction.

Let me give you an example which centers on our African mothers. While I was growing up, my mother scolded me in embarrassing fashion sometimes. You're with your friends or maybe playing around and you'll hear things like: "this is why you're not serious, I wonder what your friends teach you. Come on, go inside!" Voila, embarrassing, init?! I trust you agree with me. And should I rebel? O boy, double wahala!

So I insist, obedience is better than sacrifice. Obey before complain.

Goddygee:
Lol, Hoes no get joy again o.... Choi

TonyeBarcanista:
Only the Chairman's office was burnt?

Why do I have this feeling that the Chairman took advantage of the fracas to burn some implicating files in his office so as to cover tracks?

This is an old "format" in Nigeria

9jakohai:
Hmmm

Sorry, but you actually have a problem...and that is pride.

Remember, the pastor asked you to tuck in your shirt. He did not ask you to go and steal,cheat, lie,or do something that is dishonorable to God.

Thing about being a Chirsitan is that we have to humble ourselves, and follow what our Elder in Christ has to say sometimes.

[b]I did not know that expressing my opinion on Nairaland could make me so popular.

The sad thing about most of the responses to me here are the fact that some of them have chosen to insult me and call me unprintable names.I have also gotten threatened once too.Chrisitanity in Nigeria has a lot of work to do among the adherents....

For those who tried to politely engage my comment...a big thank you. Yes...tucking in does not make a man right before God...it is what is in his heart that counts. But...at the same time...out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. Leaving church because of being asked to tuck in shirt does not show a humble heart.

Am sure that if the OP was asked to tuck in his shirt at his placeof work...he would do so immediately...because he does not want to lose his job.(Being a bit facetious here...I know).

Finally....the point here is humility. Being humble is an ongoing process. It is one I go through everyday...and one I hope to keep on going through. As long as I stay within God's Word.

God bless everyone who put me in their mentions...good and bad. I still love you all anyway![/b]

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.

I am now officially on drugs, am a hypocrite, and I am all sorts of unprintable things...apparently.

Ah well....God came to save sinners, among who I am chief.

(And by the way, having lost someone close to me to drug abuse, I do not abuse or even tolerate the abuse of drugs. I have even treated drug abusers!)

Kamamchukwu:
humble My Foot That Is How Those So Called Pastors Will Be Decieving You People Dere Was Nothing Wrong With Op's Dressing As He Described Unless There Is More To It Than Meets The Eye

pjmaskalli:
Bellow, my there friend since you need advice hear this. For the action the pastor took shows that you must have been told how to kit up as a worker, besides he said you should dress properly . please brother is just a correction simple as that. Don't allow pride to over rule you brother. Just take it as a correction. See you at the church for their next program.

0079jaBond:
Obedience is better than sacrifice.
Obey before complaining.
Afterward, you can question what prompted his action.

You were not condemned nor judged, so why worry? Once again, obey!

stanley99a:
@Op, leaving the church angrily because you were scolded or ordered to go tuck in your shirt by your pastor is very wrong I must tell you. My questions to you..

1. Will you leave your job for another because you were scolded by your boss in front of your colleagues?

2. Will you forfeit your admission and rewrite another jamb because your lecturer scolded you in the presence of your classmates for not dressing properly to class? ( Law students know what I mean)

3. Do you benefit from the teachings your pastor share from the pulpit? If yes, why angry that you where corrected by your own pastor.

I'll will put it to you with due respect OP that it was pride that made you leave the church angrily that faithful day because you were instructed to go out and tuck in your shirt.

I am sure that you weren't the only member in church that did not tuck in to church that day. Why you? Think about it

My word for you op, please go back to the church and apologize to your pastor if truly it's just what you narrated here that made you leave. Remember prov 4:6
You never know how far your talent can take you. Humility is key to success in life

Akinrogun:
dangotesmummy....two things comes to mind while reading the above. it's either you are craving attention deliberately or you are outrightly unlettered.

Your submission is incoherent and obnoxious.

Abi your b00bs is bigger than medulla oblongata.

lol

and while you are ruminating over the aforementioned missive, don't try to be offensive in your response or else I'll take you to the slaughter slab grammatically. You can take that to the banks!

UltraSphinx:
not again!

UltraSphinx:
I'm finding it hard to believe that you were unable to spot three typo errors in a row..,.. ABI na rush to book space cause am?

UltraSphinx:
madam why na?
it's bachelor (not bachelor's) and master (not Master's) of science...
correction no 2

band wagon... stop trying to prove that you have an idea

agboty:
It's actually Bachelor of Science and also Master of Science. Check your spellings.

malowsky:
don't mind dem,social media don EPP their lifes.she might have know it.anybody can forget wen put on the spot.

Bamibor:
He's been reasonable, very reasonable by not resorting to tongue-lashing and standing up for mediocrity like you did and as a matter-of-factly, you got it wrong, accept that in humility. There's no apostrophe accompanying the words "bachelor" and "master"
You only have Bachelor of Science and Master of science. Regards.

softwhispers:
It's difficult to see how you're any better. Why the apostrophe 's? Do you think your brain is happy with you right now (if you get sef)?
And PhD is 'Doctor in the Philosophy' of whatever discipline. I'm sure your surname is Eriata

Where is ('s) coming from?

ipodstinks:
Oga swerve, a shame is a shame. Even my primary 6 students know what B.sc means.

greencard:
I would have answered your questions logically but I won't cos u stylishly dodge mine

all those blame game is what is affecting large majority of Nigerians today .
u spoke of NGOs a beg isn't NGOs owned by humans like u or are they aliens?
u talked of parents being careless, well I'll pass on that cos I got proves around me too where I live but I can also tell u that amongst these neglected children I've advice or help some both morally , spiritually and materially with the little I can afford
its not until I open a NGO or become a parent .if I don't act like a parent now or act like a supposed NGO would do now , how I'm I suppose to be equipped when u finally become one?

I understand you may be pained by the way most parents/guardians handled their wards but like the buhari administration would say " change begins with me"

peace

vicfuntop:
Man I think you have comprehension problem. Where did I claim to be superior in my quote

linearity:
It takes one, to know another.

wadetaw202:
Your comment is barbaric; there is nothing worthy of dignity in it at all. Why would you defend something this stupid? A so-called graduate cannot tell you the meaning of B.Sc and you aren't even ashamed of yourself to defend her. And you expect dignity in my response? Mr, go bury your head in the sand of shame

Eat the humble pie and admit you were wrong too...
