NA WA O, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SOME FOLKS EXPECT INSTANT MIRACLE TO HAPPEN. AND ALL THE PROBLEMS OF THE COUNTRY TO BE SOLVED AT ONES.

And Nigerian women call each other local for getting hairstyles like this. It just reeks of self hatred.

Men have never said they liked wigs.
It is a competition among women actually not for men.
You don't tell a guy you fixed a Brazilian wig of 60k, rather you tell that to your fellow lady just to show her you pass her level.

Men love less painting and mostly natural. Worst is fixing eyelashes. Yet to see a man who love it with long artificial nails but they endure and praise it as long as it can take them to the cochie.

The reality is that condition of service is very poor, I know my skill sets in Clinical Child Psychology is needed direly in Nigeria but I can't imagine myself working in Nigeria......pay is poor, facilities below standards until I decide to open my own facility and the truth is, it is going to be high end which majority can not afford because it is very expensive to set up, setting up a world class sensory room for autistic children will cost nothing less than N25m, so you can imagine how much a child would be charged per hour in it.
If you go to good private hospital where they are paid well with facilities top notch, you will respect these people cos they will hive you their best service. When we keep on recycling the same people and some think it's an ethnic supremacy war or they have the money to travel out, why will they care.

I've experienced such before in a popular teaching hospital in Nigeria. Most nurses are rude, and brain drain is really affecting our hospitals. Government needs to do something about it.
Nurses are rude for a reason though its unethical.
They are over stretched and poorly paid.
It happens everywhere.
The problem is the govt don't care.
Nurses need therapy but they don't get it.
Nurses and doctors in Nigeria are the most underpaid and over worked in this world. And their welfare is zero. They pass aggression to patients.
In a sane environment when you are burned out, you take a break. Who does that in Nigeria?

Go to good private hospital where they are treated like human and see the hospitality of these people.
Give them a break. No wonder they are migrating in thousands.

That's good to know though. Reason why I think it is psychological. I don't bother buying habanero since each time I cook with it, I get acid reflux but with the Cameroon ground pepper, I don't. Maybe it is because I use very little and I also take omeprazole is why I don't have the reflux anymore.
Seems you are among those that have acid reflux whenever they eat anything spicy.

grin grin Haha, it seems like you've had quite a range of experiences. Where are you currently based?

Personally, I don't have much experience with eating out as I tend to be quite selective. I find the idea of ordering all those plenty soup that can last for several days quite appealing, even for individuals with families (there are days when to cook dey tire pesin). And honestly, wifey suppose dey take multiple breaks from all those kitchen wahala.

Wuse na big man place abi? I dey respect myself and my finance a lot grin My recent experience was at Garki and it wasn't bad at all. The place I stayed at offered a decent plate of poundo yam or semo with protein for N2500-N3000. At times, I reluctantly resort to Chicken Republic rice or snacks. I use the term "reluctantly" because, in my opinion, Chicken Republic serves some of the wackest jollof rice I've ever tasted. grin I don't mean to denigrate the brand sha. At least, I like their chicken pie and coke grin
I am a complete wazobia cheesy cheesy

But left Nigeria some yrs back.
Igbo, grew up in pH, schooled in East, served in Abuja, wedded in maiduguri, while schooling did biz in kano, lived in abj, got transfered to lagos, moved back to abj and out of the country. There are other states in between. Have met great people, some of these thieves( sorry to say that) were present at my wedding, while some were regular visitors at my house. Have entered some places and circles that well...., at my age...... let me just leave there so when I share stuff, it's from experience or what I learnt from seniors.

I was roommate during my first Yr with a daughter of one time deputy governor of your state and whenever he visits, it's bountiful. He usually pay surprised visit and I was around two times. The money I got was enough to last me for a whole semester not to talk of foodstuff. Man just dey share roommates money anyhow cos we are his daughters roomies cheesy

Wuse is like ikoyi of old.

I multi cook and freeze so I don't cook always especially soup. I also buy all ingredients in bulk. Hate shopping. Even pepper. I buy that in carton grin

If you have steady electricity, get 2 freezers and buy things in bulk during their seasons.
Very economical. And will reduce high BP kiss

I don't do habaneros cos I can't stand the hotness. Guess psychologically my body senses it if I use it. I use bell pepper and add some black pepper and Cameroon grounded peppers to make it a little spicy.
Cameroon ground pepper= habenero grin

I had miscarriage, took gin as the thing just don't want to flow out naturally and the pain no be here.
Rushed to hospital cos of the pain. Abandoned there for like 8hrs. Then the contraction started and the idiots said they will commence evacuation. I rejected it and went home. 5 days, I was OK but weak. A mama gave me one herb to cook and drink. 3 months, I took in again.

Older generation always advice against evacuation. Don't know why.

Did a competent hospital handle the evacuation.

Ohh... I see. I haven't watched the entire video.

You are right though. Eating out can be very expensive reason I personally wouldn't expect adolescents/youths to prioritise eating out regularly instead of preparing their own meals.

I recently came across a Domino's jollof rice and pizza combo ad and decided to place an order. I was just drawn to the fact that sapa has made Domino's "abandon" pizza for Nigerian jollof grin The taste was super cool. But, as always, I was disappointed with the portion I got. It was more like a serving suitable for a 2-year-old. Na why I don't bother myself. Of course, I know places where people get bigger portions for cheaper amounts, but due to personal reasons like trauma, I don't bother myself..
Juvenik wuse 2 was my restaurant of choice when I was in Abuja. Very close to my house and their soup is the best I have ever tasted anywhere in naija, be it buka, mama put etc, and a plate of soup is very big.
I think they purposely made it like that cos unmarried people living around go and buy, scoop out and freeze the remaining. As long as they have swallow, a plate of soup from there can last one 3 serving. It was cheaper buying their expensive soup for singles if you do the math. Its a good place to mingle too for singles if you understand what I mean. Believe me, if you don't like eating that much, arrangements like that are cheaper.
If you want to cook and consider cooking cheap in Abuja, you must shop in bulk if you live in areas like wuse and environs else it will be the same as eating out. I hardly shop in wuse market though its like 5 minutes walk from my house. Na politician wives and girlfriends market cheesy
Here for example,making a full naij dish costs an arm and leg. Single eat out most times. No gas or electricity bill skyrocketing.

Eating out has its merits and demerits.

Really!!! Don't be ignorant and assume all knowing statute. I am few classes from doctorate degree meaning ain't no fools to know loads of church are scam but prayer works. Notice my post did not talk about pastor but prayer. Now back to the topic, my mum's prayers do wonder in my life...
Her prayers did nothing. If you are educated as you claim, you should study beyond your field.
Get busy and research on mind control under social psychology and how the colonial masters used that for their conquest through religion. Its all over the Internet.

And it's worst than chemical nd biological weapon put together. The day you and your likes stop reasoning like this, Africa will see small light. Sub saharan Africa isn't the only colonised place but they are the dumbest. The rest has dropped the poison religion and moved on to greatness and here we are in 21 century believing that a mums prayer is what is keeping us alive or making us prosper.
Exactly how the West want us to think and act.
Surprising those that gave you the religion has decided to ditch it after it has fulfilled the purpose why it was created. Some are now calling God non gender. Yes, you have no right to say which name god will bear cos they gave you god so they can decide to call god a she or he.

Wow.. what an advice indeed. My mother attend church, prays, gave 100 blocks, 10 bags of cements from my house project to church without telling me and when she told me, she said you going to see their prayer in your life. I bought a tractor trailer in one month of hustle. While some of our mother goes too far, NEVER denial your parents what they actually we earn and I believe their prayers open doors.
Your mother's prayer didn't do that. Rather you were diligent and worked hard.

No be everything we suppose dey blog about sha.
Seems like most people including you misunderstood that lady.

I don't eat out too but anytime I do with my family, I bite my nails cos it's very expensive to eat quality meal outside. Add a bottle of wine and it keep on increasing. I was so sick to get up from bed one day and prepare salad of which I had ingredients in the fridge so I ordered. What I paid was astronomical and ingredients not as much as I would have added. So yep, If you take yourself out to eat, you can spend that much in good and quality restaurant.

You are right.

But he claimed Atiku was his candidate. But he arguments so far makes me question if truly Atiku was his candidate or it was a decoy.
And you believed that?

Lots of people cos of backlash disowned tinubu.
Some gained their voices when they noticed inec is favouring tinubu. Some changed monikers to support him. Some were supporting atiku yet tinubu was their choice. You have to read in between lines. Some didnt voice thrir opinion until tinubu was declared president and the hatred ftom them started oozing out. The same way some supporters of obi today were actually atikus's supporters but cos atiku has very low chance of winning the tribunal, they have gone back to obi and yes, they are from obi's tribe. Dont be surprised if obi wins at the tribunal, more than 50% of tinubu supporters will do 360 and start yarning dust. Freedom.

It’s becoming increasingly apparent that you are an institutionalist who would rather the status quo is maintained than disrupting the system.

Look at you highlighting one aspect of the regulations which states what INEC should do within the four walls of their collation room while leaving out the aspect of the regulations that stipulated what they should do to bring the public into the process and ensure transparency.

You are assuming that INEC is made up of infallible agents who are so sincere that they always compute the right figures as contained in forms EC8A and EC60E without manipulations. Or they are free to manipulate (while shutting the public out) and whoever is disgruntled with the process should go to court?
You know his antecedents before the election and whom he was supporting.
Why are you feigning ignorant and engaging in endless merry go round?
