you can pick up on the coloured edition of the manga.


The Manga has better pacing than than Anime.


The current chapter in the manga gives us a

Crime / Re: Missing Elizabeth Edoukumor: Bolt Driver Surrenders To Rivers Police by DelphiOracle(m): 4:17pm On Oct 28, 2023
SavageResponse:






The house at Harmony Estate is the residence of the girl's aunt.

The issue here is that she left her aunt's place but never got home.

The reason the Bolt guy is in trouble is because he was the one who took the girl to Harmony Estate but he says he just dropped her there and left
if the security can confirm that the driver left without the girl, I don't think the driver has any case to answer. Then they should now check if the girl actually left the aunty's house. If she did, at what time? Where was the driver at that particular time?
The case is simple but difficult one

Education / Re: What Was Your Unforgettable Experience In Exam Hall? by DelphiOracle(m): 6:52pm On Aug 28, 2023
kay29000:
It was in 400 level.

I'm not good in maths, so any math related subject we did in my department always gave me a hard time. I failed this particular course in year 3, and was doing it as a carry over course in year 4. If I failed again, that was it... I would have had an extra year.

We were to answer 3 questions... The first was theory, I answered that one perfectly. When it came to calculation, I was stuck half way through the second question. This year 3 girl sitting in front of me saw I wasn't writing anything and signaled to me for us to switch papers that she had the answers on her question paper. I'm not the type to cheat during exams and I found it hard to do it, even though a lot depended on it. I finally summonded the courage to switch papers with her when the invigilator stepped out for a few seconds.

I quickly copied the second question. After that, I was like, with this, I know I can't fail. From my calculations, I would at least get a D. After a few minutes of me looking at the ceiling again, she whispered to me that she had completed the last question, and wanted us to switch again. I'm like, thinking to myself, this girl must have been sent by my guardian angel, cos I don't think I had ever spoken to her before. But I was too scared of not getting caught, so I froze. After hearing 5 minutes to go, the girl got up and walked to the front of the class as if she was going to submit her paper, but turned back and walked back as if she had forgotten something... Walked over to my side, swapped question paper with me, and walked back to the front to submit.

The question paper had the full workings for the third question. I copied and completed just in time before the invigilator stopped us.

I got a C in the course. That girl literally saved me from staying one extra year in the uni.
did u later find the girl to thank her?

shantti:
I remember when they removed a mechanical engineering student from his hall and put only him in our hall(chemical engineering). The guy became the only mechanical engineering students seating in the midst of chemical engineers and our hall was very very strict unlike theirs and the guy didn't study cos he hoped on doing malpractice. For over an hour this guy was looking confused and kept on staring at his paper. When it was 30 mins to go he had no other option but to start copying from my answer booklets even though we were writing different exams 😂😂😂😂





He even borrowed pencil and ruler and neatly drew all the diagrams he saw in my booklets. 😂😂😂😂


When he was through he examined it and showed it to me and asked shey it's okay , I nodded and he jejely submitted his book 😂😂😂😂😂
hahahahahahah
Celebrities / Re: Shatta Wale: Nigerian Artistes Make Ghanaian Counterparts Look Mediocre by DelphiOracle(m): 8:14am On Aug 23, 2023
Pojomojo:
There was a time in Nigeria that all we consumed was foreign music. We rocked this music without a single care in the world about who and where the song was made. As long as it was good we rocked it till we are tired.

There was a time in Nigeria that listening to Nigerian songs was considered ghetto, and that was also because we couldn't see ourselves rocking it. We thought they weren't doing enough to get our attention to rock Nigerian music. Then they started doing something different. Nigerian artists got Nigerian's attention and since then we have not looked back.

Apart from working hard, Nigerian artists don't just release a song and wait for air to blow it into our ears. They spend a lot on promotions too. Ghanaians ranting about Nigerians going to ghana to promote their song is funny. Going out to promote your song is part of the hard work we are talking about. In the past, before they started going out to promote their music, Nigerian artists will tour Nigerian universities, polytechnics and colleges of education just to get Nigerians to know their song exist.

Nigerians don't rock a song because it is Nigerian, we rock and dance to good music. We are rocking Amapiano today Because it's good. We didn't say it's from south Africa we won't rock it. We rocked jerusalema and wande thomas (don't know if I am right 😁) like we were going to die on it.

Some blaming population on why Nigerian artists are doing good is also funny. If that is the case why is India music not number 1 in the world? Good songs don't have enemy. Moreover Nigeria has done more collaboration with Ghana artists in Africa. Why is Ghana not dragging south African's to help them promote their songs? Are they not also in Africa? Or is it because Nigeria is the only country that can be dragged?
we rock awilo too

Finally, if not madness why leak a security memo. Even the media outlets that published the said memo giving it more reach, should face some penalty. We play too much
does that mean they were not supposed to warn the public?

Education / Re: What Is The Most Useless Certificate You Have Ever Gotten? by DelphiOracle(m): 10:43am On Aug 16, 2023
Oyindamolah:
NIM
Our MBBS is just the primary qualification required...to move up the ladder there you need to enroll in many of their own certified programs.
And bear in mind that MBBS took 6-8yrs of someone life to obtain.

One thing about IT is its strictly by skill or know-how, not by degree. You can see a skilled developer that can hack the backend of a website with just SSCE cert.

Interesting.

Likewise, if a foreign trained doctor (regardless of the country) wants to practice in Nigeria, they'd need to pass some Nigerian exams as well. That's the standard in most countries. As for IT; yes, it's skill based but many Nigerians got into that field by studying Computer Science or Engineering. The school might not have given them all the skills they need to thrive in the IT world but the degree was an eye opener for them; it gave them the foundation. Many people have moved to Canada and France with their French language degrees. A lot of people from that same Nigeria are working as professionals outside the country with thier Nigerian degrees.

My point is, individual experiences differ. Your university degree might not be useful to you (not necessarily your fault), but that doesn't make universities degrees generally useless. It gives some people the foundation to build on. The issue is when you expect that having one should automatically make life easier for you. Well, that's not the case even in the Western world. While Schools in the West are obviously far better than what you have in Nigeria, the students still succeed by self development. The schools mostly provide the enabling environment for them.

I know education is not so great in Nigeria, but those who couldn't make anything out of the little the system can offer should not discourage those who are willing to give it a go. A hungry man does not reject a plate of food cause it's not big enough to satisfy him. Unless you have plans of studying abroad, it would be shameful not to strive for a degree on the grounds that it's not good enough.

Just an opinion.
well said

Well lack of planning for the future
Depending on only that source of income
Family pressures ( because they know once month ends them don pay)

So the way forward is to plan for the future
Cut down expenses in terms of children fees (there are good school dat pay less fees), buy food in bulk (it saves)
Your house rent shouldn't be more than two months of your salary (start small in life, you are not here to impress anyone).
Your wife/partner should not be a full-time house wife. She should own some that brings in income

Above all, have side hustles that can bring in income weekly or daily.

With this person fit manage life small
