Freethinker87: Good policy but politically motivated. This is going to affect TechBros whose taxes are deducted at source. This will amount to double taxation if they have to show tax clearance to withdraw.
Mehn, living in Nigeria should be classified as an extreme sport.
tax don't get deducted if you work for foreign companies because Nigeria has no tax treaty with most tech nations like the US.
MandelaLives: Prof. Zulum?!? No! Although I don't like supporting anything APC, when it comes to Zulum, I believe this is a smear campaign. I need someone to prove me wrong if I am wrong.
Thebest12: There is a girl I asked to be my girlfriend. She said no to me. But she keeps disturbing me. Chatting me up everyday. I have tried to snub her several times but she keeps sending messages.
Pls what does she want and how do I get this girl out of my life . I want to block her, if I do so am I not overreacting?
bro all this people advising you to block her have never chatted a girl. Let her be there in your DM . Leave her and don’t end your friendship with her . She will be useful in the future , this advice doesn’t mean you should do anything she says and also it doesn’t mean you should reciprocate her constant chat up just don’t quarrel with her .
QuinModah: Anyone who will stay in Nigeria because of a higher salary is quite confused about the logic and purpose of their japa. This is basic maths, but nobody pays attention in maths class these days.
To be honest, alot of Nigerian's leaving the country is for a better life standard, and not necessarily money, people are seeking for safety, good health care system, quality education system etc. Trust me with your money in this country you can't afford those, you can't buy safety (ask some generals in the army why their kids are abroad & why they relocate after service and you get the answers you seek) , these are functions of government responsibilities, which they have failed without any form of remorse.
Nigerians are no longer safe in their country, you have a good job, you are prone to be kidnapped, you drive a good car, you can be robbed and killed, kids are spending close to a decade in public universities for a 5years program. The exodus campaign out of the country is based on having quality lifestyle, Nigerians are simply tired of not been safe in their country anymore. The good Job comes with its inherent risks of been killed, robbed, or kidnapped, so trust me is beyond the salary to stay back in a system designed to shorten your life span. fix the country and Nigerians will stay back.
it is not a salary issue. Are you aware there is no middle class in Nigeria again?, a good number of Nigerians are one chronic disease away from poverty. Have we not seen someone that returned back to Nigeria to work at the rate of same salary structure.
This case here depends on the person skill-set, and how important such person is to the firm.
Average entry level salary in UK is
$32,500 = ₦14,428,050.00 yearly.
Let's break it down.
$32500/12 = $2,708 making ₦1,202,189.52 monthly. (Subjected to all statutory deductions)
In short there are many companies that can afford this in Nigeria depending on how skilled you are.
Note: it's not bad to japa and it's not bad to stay back, but it's depends on your purpose.
lifeizgood: The security department of the company is contracted to a third party security outfit. There are 3 boys and one girl working with the security outfit. The girl was to join some of the company staffs for an outing. One of the manager was hesitant about the girl going so, I asked the girl not to go. The security boy in question said that the girl must go. I said no, she's not going. He repeated that the girl will go and before I know, he pulled out his phone and called the girl to go meet the manager so that she would be allowed to attend. That angered me greatly.
I suppose by that position you have some level of power . Why not take some disciplinary measures on him?
folake4u: From Benin, go to Agbor railway station.
I've stated it severally on the thread. You should read it up.

Comradepreneur: So, in 2019, my dad decided to take him in.
One night, I woke up from sleep and decided to go to the kitchen and get drinking water (my room is just outside the sitting room, and you'll have to pass the sitting room before reaching the kitchen).
I observed that my cousin wasn't on the bed when I woke up. I decided to take a peek into my sister's room and there he was standing, jerking off to my sister's face! She was barely 15!
The lights was on, and his grandmother (my dad's mom) who came visiting was also on the bed together with my sisters! Such audacity!
I couldn't even believe what I saw, and tiptoed back into my room and woke up my maternal uncle who was staying with us in order to be my witness.
After witnessing the act, the only response he gave me was [b]Why is she (my sister) feigning to sleep, while he was touching her and jerking off to her face[b].
I was shocked and couldn't even believe his utterance. Like bro! You was supposed to help me bounce on the stupid slowpoke harassing my sister, (your niece).
He just said that and left. With the little energy left with me, I opened the door, dragged my cousin brother out and warned him never to try such act again (I initially wanted to teach him a lesson he ought to never forget in his lifetime, but I was hugely disappointed with what my uncle did).
Even though I still reported him to my parents, there wasn't any punishment meted out to him.
After that incident, I completely lost the respect I had for my uncle. Agreed he had some issues with my mom (her elder sister) back then, but why extend the hatred to her children?.
After that incident, I still occasionally catch my cousin brother in the night in the sitting room, claiming to iron out his clothes. But I still maintain my anger since it's not as if I caught him going into my sister's room.
What broke the camels back, was an incident which happened last 3 weeks ago.
One of my younger sisters (she's 13) reported to my dad in the middle of the night that he caught my cousin brother in her room, jerking off at her face while trying to remove her underwear.
All my dad did was to woke me up from sleep (saying that he wants me to be the witness), and he was preaching to the boy on how his mom, is his younger sister and that he should talk if marriage should be done for him since he can't hold his sexual desires (like man, you was supposed to call me and we smack the shit out of him together!!!).
I got angry and just left them there.
The next morning, I told my mom about the incident, and she told me that my baby sister (an 8 year old) do complain to her sometimes about sharp pains in her private part.
And this happens whenever, my cousin brother is sent to take her to the room whenever she's asleep on the sitting room couch. And also, how one of my sisters told her that he once caught him trying to lift up her skirt while she was fast asleep on the couch in the middle of the night.
Right now, I'm Justin mad at myself and angry at the same time! I feel like a loser, a pussy who can't even protect his sisters.
The bastard is still living with us, in my room, and every day, my hatred for him grows stronger.
Even when my mom told his mom, her only reply was that he's still a kid, and she should forgive him. Someone who's 17!!!! For goodness sake!.
She didn't even called him out to kneel down in front of my mom and rebuke him. Nothing was done!!!! She didn't even spoke to him about the incident.
And whenever my mom makes her displeasure known to my dad, he always says that she hates his family, bla bla bla.
How can I reduce my hatred for my cousin? Or is my hatred justified?
Right now, he has been restricted into coming into the sitting room, anything past 8pm.
But still, I'm still sure things might just go back to being the same!.
My fear right now is, I'll be going for my youth service in a few months time, which means this bastard will be with my sisters unsecured!!!!
sorry is this not against Islamic laws to rape someone? You should cut off the mfers dxvk... He is a useless rapist and pedophile..he should be hxnged

MALIGNANTGuest: This is how people do laundry themselves. No one does it for u. Everything is automated. No one enslaves anyone here. Irrespective of your social status, you are expected to do it yourself. Nigerian politicians can only purchase houses for their kids, but wouldn't want to live here, because the leisure of being served as Oga is not here. When I tell people that the Real slavery is in Africa, they end up arguing with me.
So, here are pictures of how we do heavy material laundry. We do this when we have thick blankets (duvet) & Jackets which may not yield to our regular household laundry machines.
Such can fetch so much jobs & wealth on a large scale, only if power is fixed in Nigeria. Imagine running such on a Diesel engine! Imagine the Noise and Air pollution too!
who you dey wine.. Only poor people wash their clothes here
Danielnino00: I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this.. Mods,kindly help me move it to the right one.
So, I woke up this morning to find this creature in one of the buckets in the bathroom. My little nephew told me that he found it at our backyard this morning. We don't know how it got there. Our backyard isn't bushy,neither is our area. Although there's some swampy land behind our compound,and it's possible that the heavy rain that's been falling for the past few weeks could have influenced it's migration to our compound.
The problem now is, we are confused on what to do with it.. My mom is talking about keeping it and raising it,but I don't think that's a good idea. A tortoise isn't an ideal pet in my opinion. We don't even know how to take care of it... I suggested we sell it to a mini zoo that's located not too far from our area, but I'm not sure they would be willing to buy it.
I'm quite confused on what to do... Your advices would be well appreciated. Thank you
keep it and train it. It lives forever. You will thank me later
tinsel: This is stupid coming from this man. He is becoming a mad nuisance. Whether born in wedlock or outside wedlock, it is his baby and blood. This is his private life.
Newusername: Good afternoon educated fellows. I am about to get a job that entails teaching children how to code., children in primary schools most likely. But I don't know how to go about it in terms of the materials to use. Please I need contributions on what to use to make them understand and most importantly what materials anything at all. I am supposed to return before the weeks runs out. @ fynestboi please help me push
youtube is a very good place to start.
A coder should know where to find this sort of information, you and I know nairaland is the least of the places
ChizzyBuna: I have never seen a man that is controlled by his wife like my dad. To the point if my mom does something wrong, he will cover up for her and apologize to her. The thing dey vex me My mum is a master manipulator, and my dad is a very terrible simp.
She shouts at him and sometimes disrespect him infront of us but he will do nothing. I had an altercation with my mum last night and my father without hearing my own side of the story decided to side my mum. And said i should kneel down to her and apologize.
I told him to his face that over my dead body will never do that. Out of anger i told him that age dosent mean wisdom that as old as he is. That him being my father dosent mean he is wiser than me. I told him that He is still being used like tool by my mum. And can't realize this
It didn't go well He hasn't spoken to me throughout today
you went too far, from your statement you are not wiser than your father . there is more that goes into marriage than you see.
YourBestWriter: So my friend got this job in management because he knew somebody in that company. But there is high expectations from the company for him to deliver positive results as one of the managers in that company.
This my friend is a university graduate with second class lower result and this manager position is for guys with first class results.
He has never been in management before. Infact, this friend of mine have been at home as an unemployed since 2014. He is socially awkward and easily discouraged. Now he's got this huge job with a big pay, and he is telling me that he feels like a fraud.
He asked for my advice, but I sincerely don't know what to advice him.
So I throw the topic to you guys.
How is he going to behave and probably grow some confidence to overcome this inferior complex?
that's the beginning of failure.
My advice.
You have to face it. You don't know it. But you can know it on the job, it only takes one job to have an experience.
Learning on the job is a wide-spread practice. Just don't tell your bosses and subordinates.
Behave like you know it..
Go home, put more hours to learn about the job and what is expected of you, also find out the performance of the immediate manager, just don't let anyone find out why.
ebubeson: To be tempted to sleep with someone's wife can come, they may even offer you, but I beg you resist.... Adultery is cheaper than before...I have more than one encounter, but let me share this..
Some years back, I went for something (briefly) in a northern state, and I stayed in a couples house then.. It was quit okay as I was received well into the house.. But what happened? I noticed the couples were not in talking terms, but they talked to me. One night, the man left and did not come back that night...To be real I met a dangerous temptation as me and the wife became "fleshly" close to each other that night, we were talking and the environment was "satanned". She was weak and I was weak, but I held on and never caressed her nor had sex. I had the power to UnCloth her as she was vulnerable. She complained of her hubbies bed performance. Thank God I did not fall. I might have been destroyed today.
No matter how sweet a married woman appears, even if she goes naked, endure it with your life and go away...
This is not the only temptation with a married woman..But thank God for keeping me.
what's this doing on fp? This is obviously sarcastism
