Don't be surprised to hear that she stabbed her husband (when she must have grown up and married)

Na them. Always having anger issues.

The earlier the help her to manage it (even African way) the better for both her parents and society at large.

Thanks for your exposition on Germany so far. Wishing you the best in your future endeavour. Hopefully, in the nearer future, I might meet with you (if it is convenient for you) if you are still in Germany.

Education › Re: The Truth About Introverts That Most People Fail To See by DAramis: 11:36am On Aug 23, 2020
To the Op and others, try and research Myers-Briggs personality test indicator and read up. You will gain more knowledge about personality and other related information.

Focus on the introvert personality like Intj, INFJ,... etc. One thing you should know, being the best version of YOURSELF is actually being your self rather than being what that person wanted you to be. Don't be afraid to walk alone most times rather than being desperate for another person's friendship that never valued you.

Remember, their number one basic principle upon which most introvert life revolves in, is RESPECT. Also, keep on developing yourself as the day goes by.

I will end with a quote by a wiseman or woman (Don't know who made the quote). It says:

What people do not understand, they fear. What people fear, they hate or try to control

Travel › Re: The Adventures Of A New UK Migrant by DAramis: 5:56pm On Aug 19, 2020
LMay:
23kg max not 25kg if Turkish Airlines. That is, 23kg each in two places. That's for your main luggage.

8kg max for your cabin luggage.

Total of 54kg!

UKMigrant has touched on food items to bring on. Let me help with luggage packing tips, you might need them.

Tips

You're not allowed to put food or sharp objects (cutlery, blade, pocket knife etc) in your cabin luggage or carry on (hand bag/laptop bag), so pack smartly.

Tightly pack all your clothes, shoes, books, or weaves (if female) into your cabin luggage. Instead of folding clothes passively or mindlessly like we do when arranging our closet, roll each tightly into a bunch.This will squeeze out air & give you more space in the box to squeeze more clothes into. You can watch YouTube videos to learn this technique.

Now you're left with food items, sharp objects, and any cream/perfume exceeding 50ml (Only liquid of less than 50ml per bottle is allowed in the cabin luggage). Now arrange all these carefully into your main luggage.

For food items, put into ziploc bags or transparent polythene bag like pure water bags. Put different food items into each and label appropriately...e.g Melon, Ogbono, Ugwu vegetable etc.

For ladies carrying weaves, discard the packs to make your luggage relatively lighter.

Palm oil is not allowed. Don't even bother!

You don't necessarily need an industrial scale to weigh your luggage. Buy a regular domestic scale. You know the ones "Check your weight" guys carry around? Yes, that one. It's less than 2k.

To weigh, first stand on it and check your weight. Write it down or memorise it. Now put your luggage on your head and check your combined weight. Subtracting your own weight from the combined weight will give you the weight of your luggage.

Your allowance per main luggage is 23kg but aim for 21kg or max 22kg at home. Why? The scale at Murtala Mohammed Int'l Airport is forward by about 2kg. You don't want to stress yourself with reshuffling at the airport or trashing stuffs you bought with your hard-earned money. Pack smartly from home!

Airport staffs are not smiling again. Before they allow you pass/check-in a 23.9kg bag, you'll beg tire. Anything above that, they'll tell you to go obtain a ticket of $150 per overweight bag upstairs! You don't need that wahala in your life.

What else?

Remember I asked you to stuff all your clothes & books plus shoes into your cabin luggage? Trust me, it would have exceeded 8kg by now. You know the box itself will add to the weight as well.

Let me give you orijo. grin

1. Your laptop bag is not weighed. That's an extra space to put clothes, books, laptop (of course), charger etc.

2. Your hand bag isn't weighed either. If you're a lady, that's a plus. You can carry a laptop bag + your handbag alongside the cabin bag.

3. If you're eleru town council like me & you've utilised all available spaces yet you're still not within allocated kg limits, fear not. There's still a way.

Leave your original cabin luggage with somebody (eg family/friend who followed you to the airport). Let them act like they own the bag while they simply stand by it.

Check in your laptop bag as your Cabin Luggage. They'll tag it and return it to you while the two main bags are passed to cargo. Now remove the tag and stickers on your laptop bag and place it on your original Cabin Luggage you kept with your escort. You're done!

With these tips, you'll have a smooth sail luggage wise.


Extras....

Depending on how light or fancy you want to travel, those silly Echolac boxes are not your friend. 1) They'll add to the overall weight 2) They're not durable. Most would be damaged (broken handles, broken wheels, torn surface areas, etc) before you arrive your destination. How would you even lift a damaged box? You'll place it on your head maybe grin

Invest in a quality box. Might be pricey but it will last for years and save you from embarrassing situations. I don't know if/where those are sold in Nigeria. I bought mine in the abroad. This is my 5th year of usage and I travel very frequently. It's still intact.

If you're low on cash, buy those very strong bagco ghana must go bags as main luggage. Not the usual ones. This one is a bit recent & it comes in one color - grey! More like a grainy white mixed with black. It costs about N1,500 per bag. Nothing to be ashamed of. You wont even see it until your final destination after you check it in at MMIA, so you can still form posh in transit with your cabin luggage. Regular travellers use it a lot. It's very light and durable. For your information, they sell it in the abroad too. So what? In fact, its a life saver for people whose boxes get damaged at the airport. Just that they'll pay a few extra thousands more to procure it at the airport.

No use am as cabin baggage oooo. You'll look like Osuofia in London. Hehehe. Joking. Use a correct small sized box as cabin/hand luggage.

Third option is to source for lightweight boxes (rare) or lightweight travelling bags with wheels (looks like a piece of cloth with wheels attached when empty. The box-shaped compact ones are heavy).


Wishing you a safe flight!
Quoting for future reference and thanks for all your tips. Looks great.

Thanks for the information. At the bold below, has always featured in the comment section of most guys.

Always resist the urge to shalaye

In real life, it is very important and applicable. Didn't know that, it was applicable in public space using such statement.

Is there any history behind it? Like being used in a movie or where someone prominent used it? Or was it stated by a nairalander before it went viral?

For a moment, I wanted to start explaining but I realized that would be another shalaye
Not really, but have seeing comments with such words. Some even have pictures where the word was written, attaching it on nairaland when passing a message across.

For, example, when "edekakun masquerade, na express you dey and make motor, no jam you" started reining on nairaland, I was able to get the meaning and history of the it (About the masquerade and express... heard it happened in one of the southwest state).

But this word, no idea other than it being used as comic word most times.

Please don’t do this, don’t kill someone because of chocolates. How much is chocolate, forgive and forget.

Nigerians working in post office and immigration are fond of eating anything eatable. It is an abomination to poison a food that you know that someone can eat it.
I second this post. Sometimes, forgetting something done to you does not make someone ignorant but just for peace to rein.

Chocolate is nothing and cannot be nothing considering the country he is and salary based work which he do.
Politics › Re: Suspended Anambra Monarchs Hit Back, Suspends The Obi Of Onitsha by DAramis: 9:58am On Aug 14, 2020
OneNigerianist:
Obiano has issues with dipolamacy. Both have been having that cold war since at least 2018. This latest escalation is just about who takes over. Obiano and apga support zoning while the traditional rulers backed by athur eze and many other actors do not support zoning. The battle influenced the location of zonal police headquarters to ukpo which obiano lost despite using the "police games" to lobby its location to aguleri. I know Arthur eze has issues with ego and causes trouble, but the present problem is largely caused by the governor. His nepotism is unprecedented, his lack of tact and diplomacy equals none. He has fallen out with his deputy and has been running around to impeach him.

I discovered you are anti Igbo and couldn't have asked in good faith.
One question for clarification purposes, before Obiano, has there been zoning in Anambra?

All other previous governors, has it been as a result of zoning or it is free for all fight?

Business › Re: Routing Number by DAramis: 8:31pm On Jul 29, 2020
SmartPolician:
Routing numbers are needed for local money transfer. It is different from SWIFT. What we call Routing number in Nigeria is Sort Code. Every branch of bank has a unique sort code.

While you can easily Google and get SWIFT codes of any bank, you may need to visit your branch to get their routing number/sort code.


Just know that Routing Number is American English

Sort Code is British English

And in Nigeria we use British English not American English

So routing number (AME) = sort code (Naija grammar).

I hope this helps..
Thanks for this smart explanation.

I just learnt a new information regarding to this.
