We should all remember that wearing clothes is not African culture. We only started covering up when Europeans came in and brought their fancy covered up dresses, brainwashing us with their culture and religion into abandoning our own ways, forgetting them, and worst of all viewing them as the foreign things.

But the idiot is living in someone else's land. Smh. If UK gives him two days to move back to naija, will be have money to buy plane ticket? Where dem dey make people like this for this 2020 abeg?

The hotter the curse the more the guy that took the staff will use it to unhang cloth from barb wire, use it to turn waste that he's burning in his backyard and then use it to play golf.

can I have your WhatsApp number also?

I'm sorry bro. I just want to keep being anonymous

Bro your OD messed with your brain. Get a shrink

Nothing will make me buy all these tecno and infinix Itel dead phones. Rather used my battered Samsung till it disintegrates in my hands. Then save up and buy another midrange Samsung for the same price than buy an infinix top end phone, if there's even anything like that. Very useless products

Hello everyone, I'm a 24 year old guy and there is this nice lady I met two months back and ever since then, I've really been happy. Truth is we aren't in a relationship yet but have spoken about our feelings for each other.

I really planned on settling down with her and likewise her but something happened today that got me in a state of dilemma. So she had to talk to her ex because of something really important and all of a sudden, she told me she still has feelings for him deep down and talking to him after a year of breakup has brought it all back and hopes that they'll be together someday... I was like "Am I dreaming?" (I said that within me).

She went on and on and I immediately started shaking like literally. I couldn't speak for a while and she noticed nothing at all. I'm really dumbfounded right now. Her ex was even the one that broke up with her... Why are girls really confused these days? She has told me countless times about how she feels towards me so I have no idea why this is happening all of a sudden.

I think it'll be in my best interest to cut of all ties with her because I can't face what has happened and I'll be hurting myself by deciding to remain friends with her. What do I do?

Critics are most welcome

Bro you've just been brother zoned. She loves you but like a brother. Better pass cos that girl will hurt you later trying to get back with her ex

I don't know if i'm the only one who has this.

But i always feel sick whenever i get into most cars. I always feel like throwing up and it has been a problem i've had right from childhood. I don't know what exactly causes it but it makes it difficult for me to travel by car because i get sick throughout the journey.

Has anybody experienced this?

Motion sickness

wunmi590:
Good day nairalanders,

Sorry I have to write this, I have decided to keep it to myself but, I decided to let it out.

Just like every other job seekers who are looking for jobs either to switch to a better pay or change environment.

Though I have been out of job since the COVID-19 pandemic started, I worked in a retail company, but since we have not been called back, I decided to search for job.

I saw an advert and decided to submit my application, just like every other people, luckily after one week or two, I got a mail that I have been shortlisted for their online test and after I pass, I will move to the next stage which is virtual interview before coming to their office to sign my employment letter.

After the mail, like 3 days I got a mail containing my ogin and password for the test, fiam, I opened and I did the test.

After like another 3days, I got a mail from them that I passed the test and i should be expecting a whatsap call from one of their head office in Europe.

Luckily I got the call, from one of the European country number from a Nigerian, believing is the call that would change my life forever.

After the normal introduction and other things like the job functions, the real bible questions started which I was able to scale through it.

Towards the end of the virtual interview, the last question was are you a born again Christian, have you been baptised and what denomination are you?.

And I said yes I'm a born again Christian, I've been baptised and I'm a Roman Catholic.

At the end of my speech his response was, is not possible to be a Catholic and be born again.

He said once you were not taken to the river to be baptised that's not a baptism.

Catholics are not born again Christians and I'm not baptised too just because I was not taken to the river to be baptised.

His last statement was, you actually have the experience but, we need other denomination not Catholic that the job entails somebody who is a real born again Christian.

That was how I lost the job, thinking today being my birthday, I will go to church and do special thanks giving.

they just did religious discrimination. That's illegal nau. Maybe you could have recorded the interview and put it online. I think there is a law against this, might have even been able to take legal steps so they don't repeat that nonsense with someone else

So like this no more one man squad and quick highness. This countrymail kill us. Small 300 Naira spirit that we used to combine with beer and forget the state of the country they still want to take away from us. You can ban the satchets on environmental protection basis but leave those small glass bottles alone.

That's why I hate this oversabi veterinarians. Why not put knife through that tortoise throat before it dies. 75years is already a long year for it. It has lived a fulfilled life and it was time for it to continue it legacy in the stomach


See how this people just missed tortoise pepper soup with it shell as plate


Should I burst your bubbles?

That wasn't an accident. It was as a result of the tortoise's cunny life that got it into this mess. The tortoise was thrown down from the sky by the birds after claiming that its name is "all of you" so as to eat all the food presented to them in the feast held in the sky


Dah... What I'm I even saying

Tortoises actually live well into their 100s. 75 is like midlife for them.

NCAN911:
Hello house don't mind my grammar pls!

There's problem in the house! We have been having problem with our toilet for a while now but we received a shock after find out what the problem is....

My uncle is 44 and his wife is 34 with 1 kid (girl) they just celebrated 2 years anniversary. My uncle spend most of the time at the shop. He sells spare parts and automobile, he never knew and will never believe that his wife brings another man home (who she has once introduced to me as his cousin) ... FastFWD

Two weeks now we have been finding it hard to flush toilet because the water is moving .... My uncle called a plumber yesterday, the plumber had to call my uncle to show him what the problem is.. To our surprise its A condom and one of them is still fresh with some sperm inside...

My uncle was surprised because he said he never used it on her since they got married ... He just built the house which is not even up to 1year... Now their marriage is on the line of collapsing, I like the wife very well because she is kind and generous she buys me latest things like phones shoes shirts... I don't know how to contribute to the issues because I am just a boy boy.

Bro you have no contributions to make. She's been caught and that's the end of the marriage.

MrBrownJay1:
so.... the police didnt think it was important to let the people know that there was an escaped serial killer in the community, until the youth got angry?!

Naija nau. Someone whose arrest should've made the news, his face well publicised and consequently his eventually escape. Country is a massive sjithole

Heartheart:
Hi I just needed to bring this here. I am 22 years of age and I am not happy at all. My boy friend and I are in a long distance relationship. Not long perse. He is in lagos while I'm in abeokuta. I served in lagos so that's how we met and we got to spend quality time together.

Now since I've passed out I've been at home. I passed out in June. So it's been June that we saw last and now we're in august. He has been disturbing me to come visit him as it has not been easy staying alone, loneliness and all. I promised to visit him next week which also happened to be my birthday week. I have super strict parents but I still promised I will find my way.

I told them (parents) that I was travelling to visit a friend (girl). I could not tell them it was my boyfriend I was going to see because I knew deep down they wouldn't allow me travel to another city to see a guy. But my parents have blatantly refused that I cannot visit this girl. I had to tell my bf that I was not going to come. He was so sad and angry and he let me know he has wasted a lot of money preparing to surprise me for my birthday. He was so excited to see me and he had made a lot of plans. He told me he was disappointed in me and he doesn't think he can continue a relationship like this. Yes he comes to abeokuta sometimes but he mostly lodges in the hotel. He told me he can't continue lodging in the hotel that if I love him I will make effort. I tried to convince my parents they did not gree. Imagine, I told them I wanted to see a gf that they knew and they refused. What if I had told them he was a guy.

Pls guys how do u advise me to save my relationship, I'm in a tight spot right now and really sad.

Ha, you've passed out and you're still Letting your parents boss you. You have to eventually stand up to them and let them know you're not a kid anymore, doesn't matter if you live with them or not. I don't blame the guy cos I also wouldn't be able to make that kind of relationship work. You just have to let your parents know that you're not a kid anymore.

YoungandDepress:
I have actually tried to look for a manual monthly pay job but could not find any within my locality.

It's just as if things are working against my favour.
I have tried so much in being a better person but every step I take still goes in the wrong direction.

I'm not a lazy person. I have so much will to become better, one minute I'm beaming with positive energy, the next Second, I feel lost and dark. The energy is all gone.

Yeah. Remember I started learning web design, I went at it with everything, then suddenly all the energy died and I was just lost. It's like one moment you're about to take control of your life and the next all that energy is gone. I keep thinking if I regain admission this year, maybe things will change and it will be the one thing I need to finally take my life in some semblance of the right direction, I'm scared honestly.

People are here competing on whose experienc is worse. It doesn't matter. The op knows he's not the one that has it worst in the world, he's just sharing his feelings. I totally understand him. The feeling of hopelessness, obviously we know others have it worse but there's no minimum point or experience that one has to hit or have before they can start feeling depressed. It's not maths or physics.

Kalatium:
Nigerian markets are filled with drama. Today i will like to share some of my annoying market experience.

1. Last year i was passing through the market but was blocked by an igbo man that i should come and buy his bedsheets, i told him i was just passing. While we were altercating another man came and met us that i should buy shoes from his shop i told them i was not interested. They both started dragging me each telling me to go to his shop i angrily told them to back off that they are harrassing me and they stop.

2. I went to buy shoes on a faithful day when a man told me he knows where i can buy correct shoes. He took me to the place and after buying the shoe, he told me the shoe can easy get spoiled that he will take me to the guy that will help me fix shoe nails for free. We went there and i ask the guy hope its free he said yes. After he added the shoe nails to my shoe he told me it was 1500 naira. I was flabbergasted and petplexed, i told him didnt he said it was free. He said he doesn’t like such nonsense thats it's the first one that is for free. Before i know many people gathered around because we were seriously quarelling. Then the initial man that brought me there said he will pay 1000 naira and i will pay the remaining 500naira i was angry. I just had to close my eyes and pay that money.

3. Another day i bought some pair of shoes and while coming back. A man who was sitting down was shouting bros, bros i am talking to you come and enter my shop. In my mind i was like "see this man o is it jazz you are using that will make you enter my shop.

So, whats your annoying market Experience?

I almost had a similar experience to number 2 about 2 years back. Just finished buying shoes and was about to leave, one guy just held the shoe and was seriously struggling it with me that he wants to go and put pin to make it last and that he'll also expand the shoe for me. See as I just changed it for the guy. That's the scam they do, they'll tell you it's free and that they normally do it for the seller's customers. Before you can say yes or no they've opened your shoe so you have no choice but for them to finish it. Then they'll start shouting that you're owing then a certain amount for the job they've done.

YoungandDepress:
My story is quite a sad and long one.
I wish I could write it all out. My life has been a terrible mess.
Where did it go wrong for me, I have no idea.

I am writing with so much emotion, my heart is full and heavy.
Life is bitter.

I am a 23 years old guy.
My life all started to go in the negative direction when I gained admission at age 16.
A 16 years old boy in the university, so much freedom and exposure.
I messed up my life, I became addicted to bet9ja virtual gambling I lost focus, Gambling killed me, I started failing exams, at the end I dropped out without my parents Knowing, but the truth came out when I was supposed to graduate, I could not hide it anymore. I told them the truth, my parents forgave me like the prodigal son.

They still believed in me especially my mom, she keeps reminding me of how intelligent I used to be.

Well I'm not here to talk about my past life but here to talk about how it is still affecting me today.

Ever since I started university all over again, I have been miserable and frustrated. Nothing has been working in my favour. I'm currently now in 200level hoping to graduate before 25.
All my mates I started with have done their NYSC.

I'm still stuck in the same stage.
I have no idea what I am doing with my life. I'm young, broke and depressed. I get irritated over little things. I feel disgust at how I uselessed my youthful life. How gambling destroyed me.

By the grace of whichever god exists, I am no longer addicted to gambling. I have quit the addiction for almost a year now but nothing changed, I still feel miserable. I hate having people around me even my family members including my mom.

I have no true friends. Nobody checks on me, nobody calls me.

At this age, I can't boast of having 500 naira in my account.
I'm broke and miserable.

I have started hating God and question my belief in God. I hate Sunday's. I hate hearing about God, I don't blame God for my troubles but I'm angry at the fact that despite my parents being dedicated Christians, things are not working well in my family.
My elder ones are graduates, but no solid job yet.

Only my eldest brother who is doing quite well now and I thank God for his life but we don't talk. I can't remember the last time I called him on phone. They don't hate me, I hate myself.
I have disappointed them a lot.


I just lost the last #1000 I had in my life today and I cried. The money fell out my pocket when I went to get something.

At 23 years, I have no idea what I will do with my future.
I still live with my parents and I have never rented an apartment of my own even in school.

What is wrong with me, why am I miserable?

I have no good clothes. My clothes are all worn out.
I have nothing doing, i live off my parents.

Since schools were shut down, I have been at home doing nothing.
Completely broke, damaged and miserable.

Can my life be any better. What do I do. I am depressed.
I keep asking myself these questions but there
Seem to be no answer.

Bro I'm in the same shoe. I didn't get addicted to gambling but I just don't know. I've just always hated myself. Im 23 and about to restart uni. I hate anything about church or God, not that I don't believe he exists per se, I'm just angry. I'm broke and depressed. No job, I have talents I could cash in on but I have absolutely no self confidence or self worth. I don't think of suicide anymore, but I'm definitely miserable. I'm at home morning till night, locked up in my room cos I really don't want to be around people. My parents started telling me I need to get a job, but I'm just here with no motivation to do anything with myself. I have no friends, I eventually built a wall around myself and somehow ended up distancing myself from the one friend I had. I'm just like a dead leaf being carried along in a current of water. I have absolutely no idea what I'm supposed to do with my life.

So sad. And with this dishonourable discharge she won't be able to get benefits and will be left out on the streets to fend for herself and the kid. This is evil. This makes me so angry.

U need Help!

No Wonder you are Depressed!

Little kids up and down that Lack Complete knowledge of their Existence, open their teeth to Vomit Nonsense!

If u were Around me, I would have used a Koboko to wip out that Nonsense from you this Early Morning!

This is indeed a Foolish , Godless and Worthless Generation..

May God Have Mercy on you and your likes!

Lol. Well spoken like a true spirit filled "Christian". I can't even take you serious rn. Saw your other comment on a post about a girl losing weight and you were berating her for her clothing, which btw was a very decent workout attire. Go sit in the corner boy and think about your "existence".

You know, if a cure is developed, the profits made from selling the cure would be far more than any money gotten from hiding the cure and filling pockets with corona grants.

Just a thought.

Also, drugs take years to develop. The drug you see in a standard pharmacy went through several levels of testing before it was passed fit for human consumption.

Drug development is not someone concoting something in his backyard and saying 'Na cure'.

They don't know. Takes years. Sometimes decades. Not only to confirm if it cures the disease, but also to be sure of how it reacts to the presence of other drugs and compounds in the body, how it reacts to people with certain conditions. The uncertainties are so many. Not just boiling some leaves on a firewood stove and claiming cure cure cure on newspaper.

All Over the World, Over 5million People Cured of Covid-19! Yet they say Covid-19 has no Cure!

Only God Almighty Cures Covid-19...

Let all Nations and People bow Befor Him..

If not, We will keep Decieving ourselves !

You dey spit on me. Nobody has been "cured" of covid in the sense that you're using the word. They've simply "recovered". It's not god or anything supernatural. It's simple immune system action, in some cases assisted by a cocktail of drugs that can fight specific symptoms long enough for the body to fight off the virus and recover. There is no cure that can just go in and kill off the virus, there is no church or place to bow before anyone that can cure the virus.

One of the foolish and ignorant religiously brain-washed 80% Nigerians!

The Idiot doesn't know that the internet never forgets.

By the time he tries to relocate to perhaps the United States and they go through his profile and see that post then he is denied visa.

He will run to one "fake pastor" who will tell him it is an old relative that is responsible for his failure to travel. Then he will go into his poverty-stricken slum face-me-i-face-you and begin to prat and fast and yell "Die by Fire"

For real. White people that live their animals. They'll just put the guy on watchlist sef cos they're like if he can heartlessly kill an animal for such a reason, he can't be mentally stable and shouldn't be allowed into our country else he degenerates and kills a human being in the name of witch.

Just wish we had some kind of working animal rights group and animal protection laws. People wouldn't be posting things like this with their full chest on social media.

OP...are u a lawyer/Law student...

I'm a Law student and I have few years b4 I graduate but as of recent..I've been discouraged abt the course...The course is great alright but it's not in demand and I'm not ready to spend 5yrs and spending more than 300k in law school and get paid 20k a month.. So I'm learning a skill that will make way for me...
One reason that made me give up on the law profession is the fact that Law schools in Nigeria are churning out thousands of Lawyers in a country that has legal apathy. They'll prefer to "leave the matter to God" than to fight it in court hence depreciating the demand for lawyers
Another thing is that it's very competitive.... from what I've heard ..it takes a while to get to top of the ladder in the legal profession..abeg..I wan make my Papa quick enjoy the fruits of his labour
And the third reason I gave up was that my roommates in the hostel don dey call me charge and bail . I don dey reject am..So a whole me..A Law graduate that spent 6 years in school will be hanging around the court and be shouting "Bros u get case"
I've already decided that I'll just get the cert for people to know that I'm a graduate..

Simply my opinion...Don't disturb me

No lies here. It's why I'd never advice anyone to be a lawyer in naija. Something that someone can sue and gain millions, they'll say God dey, na God de revenge. Alaye get your initial revenge now, when God is free he'll add his own.

Wetin concern me. When you pay the 2bn finish, you go know say nor be everything wey dey your mind, you go post for social media. We wen don folo reason the same thing, we nor post am, but as you post am, e don befall you, nae be say you must pay cos you don defame the man character and you nor fit prove Wetin you de cap. Naedem say excess capping nor good.

The water drop and punchhole are my fav though

When the notch first came out I remember many YouTubers were critical of it, especially the IPhone's. Now they all accept it. I'm still on the old bezel phone cos my s7 is still going strong. I plan to get another Samsung when I eventually upgrade(big fanboy here), maybe another 2 years just cos I'd like to have the latest app versions and apps will probably not support my current os anymore and also cos I'd like to use the current os of the time.
Tecno, itel and infinix will just wait for Huawei, apple and Samsung to innovate, then they'll copy with cheap parts and flood naija.
