Africa is gradually getting there

Well done!!

However, by the time Africa arrives, others would have moved on. We are celebrating what should have been in 1990 in 2020 [thanks to corrupt and mediocre leadership]!

People in this country are something else!

That wasn't Mrs. Alakija!!! It's obvious a lot don't even know her in person. So this is how fake news spread A lot just read and swallow anything!!

Let me break things down to some of us, especially Christians!

1. God does not use perfect people, because no one is perfect!! Not a GO, a Pope...no one. The system of the world is warped because of the ideologies of men (not because God created it like that). When He then decides to do something, He will use the people in that warped system and not send you an angel. Hence, Trump may not be your ideal holy holy figure, but God can use Him to drive His agenda...period!!

2. The influence of America on earth is super huge. The policies and agendas they role out as a nation have a way of influencing every other nation. If the Antichrist is to propagate his lawless ideologies when he is revealed, then he needs America at his beck and call. Trump is, and has been a stumbling block in passing some of these liberal laws that will eventually lead more people to having reprobate minds and fueling utopianism. Funny enough, Trump, being a spoilt brat and stubborn individual doesn't even understand that He's playing out a script about the end time... He's not succumbed to endorsing those evil laws because he's just stubborn and doesn't want to be a puppet in the hands of some, not because he believes entirely that God is using him in any way.

Whichever way things go, the coming of the Son of man is nearer than ever before. Trump's reelection was meant to afford us more grace time (according to some quarters), and the election of a Democrat is supposed to be the nail on the coffin - to bring about the age of liberalism and lawlessness that will usher in the Antichrist.

...in all your ways, daily seek [God's] wisdom and remember that our ticket is just believing that Jesus died for us because of what is coming! That is our salvation!!!!!

Which Lagosians? Make e no join me ooo!!! When you ask my opinion wey I cast vote?

Picture of the year!!! The photographer deserves an award. A thousand things said with just one picture!

#TeamNatural...lovely
I used to work with a young girl in her early 20s...she had a pouch that contained her make-up personal effects. She was always using the bathroom every 20 minutes to touch up. It's a shame that she'd become addicted and didn't ooze any self confidence once she'd not gone to do her routine touch up!! And she once told us that it was her mom that taught her. What a legacy

Please I received this SMS today and it obviously looks suspicious. I am putting it out here to expose the numbers used and also for the network service providers to take note! How did these people register the lines? Can they be traced? Nairalanders, you can please call them for me and sw**r for them

Mods, please help put on the front page!

It's the aftermath of those charmed waist beads and rings that these girls deal in...go and ask this man few days after, he'll tell you he didn't know what he was doing!

Anything more than this feedback is a counterfeit!

yomi007k:
All of you need help.

From the emotional infidel married woman to the yeye boyfriend who keeps an ex as a close friend and you that have the intestinal mucosa to stomach all this crap.

I will pray for you all.

P.S This is no way an insult. If you feel insulted, I apologise.

Visiting upon completion by God's grace!

Will go with this option and just change the name servers!

Debestweb3:
Buy the domain with a Nigerian domain reseller or any foreign domain reseller that sells .com.ng domain . Buy the hosting plan with the foreign hosting company and point the domain to the foreign hosting account.
.
Beside your client already has his or her Domain registered with a Nigerian hosting company. So just buy the foreign hosting account and point the domain to it . There are many ways to do that . If you need help just contact me on Whatsapp 0701_543_35_02

Super!
So we buy a hosting plan with the foreign company but leave the domain with the Nigerian company, and just point the domain to the host? So the .com.ng will not be affected in this case? The foreign company can host a .com.ng but can't sell a domain of same extension..is that your point?

LMServices:
Have your client purchase a .com domain and redirect his current to the new one and then peacefully move to a foreign web hosting provider. Other alternatives can be recommended but any sane, business minded person will never embrace a .com.ng domain for security reasons.

Privacy is everything in today's world and that should be prioritised over pricing.

Fantastic! We actually have a .com of this website, which redirects to .com.ng when you type it
My concern with this is that all emails are .com.ng. So how will these emails be affected if for instance we get the .com domain plus hosting from the foreign company but still want all emails to be .com.ng (will redirecting automatically solve this issue)??

Please I need your technical advice (not just someone willing to sell a brand to me)

I have a client whose website is hosted by a Nigerian host (don't want to spoil their market here ). The client has been complaining about their emails mostly going to the SPAM folders of recipients. So I forwarded the complaint to the host company, they worked on it, but the client says the problem still persists till now. So I thought the best option would be to go for a foreign host, but a popular one said that they don't do .ng extension. So there lies the issue - my client's website is a .com.ng but this foreign host company doesn't do .com.ng.
Anyways, what do you advise as the way forward? Please note, the client has made up his mind to go with a foreign host company. Any good foreign host that accepts .com.ng?

It's a cultural thing and it's deep rooted in our system. The other day those old men in the house went berserk because Keyamo questioned their rather selfish and personal aggrandizement in the name of "we are working for the people." I'm neither pro APC cause even the SAN's structuring of the whole thing is equally faulty.

Politicians are the same. Selfish and pretentious. You want to renovate 3rd Mainland bridge for the people but you don't offer palliatives or care about how these people will cope during the period. "They should just endure (as they always have)."

I would rather spend 12 months putting structures and systems in place to make life better for the PEOPLE [during the project], so they don't die before it ends in 6-months!

The OP kept answering "yes and no" to his own questions. What could be more confusing

Met him twice back then...remember the last one was with Ali Baba at his station's *Praise Jam* that year. He was just pluto miles ahead of all these fake OAPs now forming phonetics (mixing American with Indian and Lekki accent)...on Sundays after playing songs from Casting Crowns, Sarah Groves and co...he'll say, "the devil can't have all the good music"
...RIP bro!

You're just attaching unnecessary empathy to a wrongdoing. What is wrong is always wrong!! Will you approve of a highway criminal who robs and kills because the family back home is hungry? There are times keeping quiet is a sin; there are times it's tantamount to being an accomplice!

What if you were the boss in this case?

Anyways, OP, pls do the right thing and find a way to expose these people. The earlier, the better cause you are not safe yourself having reprimanded them before. One of them might even be reading this now.

Read Proverbs 3:5-6 and pray to the HOLY SPIRIT to guide your decision

Fabulouzjoseph:
Life itself is not fair. Suffering and pain is part of human existence.

You are in a dilema any action you take now you will still end up hurting someone.


If you report: you are going to put your co-workers and their family in trouble, they will lose their job and they will also go to jail if not for life.

If you choose not to report you will be harming the md and she might lose her business.

either ways you are going to hurt people.

And as such i will advice you to focus on yourself and mind your business.

Pls how old is this guy?

When a child is born, he/she comes on a clean slate. Genetics and the immediate environment then forms character, habits and personality.

What past events of this lady do you think could have informed this character? What you see today is a character formed over the years because of circumstances that probably weren't her fault.

Don't involve anyone...get into a heart to heart talk about past events of her life...not to judge but to empathize. Try to identify the root cause of why she's become who she is now, don't judge that person!!

Let her see this thread to show how far you've been hurt, but let her know you really don't want to leave her.

Trust the Holy Spirit to guide you all the way!

Unfortunately, the message of the Cross is foolishness to those who're perishing
1Corinthians 1:18

The fool says in his heart there's no God
Psalm 14:1

...so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name Revelations 13:17

These were written even before Bill Gates or anyone reading this were born...


Whether Bill Gates is the perpetrator of the utopianism agenda or not, let Christians cease from trying to convince or arguing about with those who are blinded by spiritual truth...focus on Christ and what is to come. God bless as many as have the Spirit of discernment!

From the earlier 50, the Lagos state government has now reduced the number of social gathering to 20 putting into consideration the recent per day increase in the number of people testing positive to Covid-19!

Means no church service tomorrow be that!

This man was a fvcking racist! He never liked black people. And he never performs to a black crowd. He was a professed racist.

Every man has a weakness...but it's how far you impact lives with your strength that matters!! Not that I doubt or believe your claims

"You don't have to fight to be a man"...his lyrics were off the chart. He's one of the reasons why I think country music is the best genre...unless words don't move you!!
RIP man

Pls is third mainland bridge a toilet? It's amazing how everyone is not addressing this part of the story...Shithole capital of the world!!!

And what led to Suleimani being killed? These days everyone too wants to say something...follow follow!

9jayes:
Blame everything on Trump, if he hadn't killed Suleimani Iran wouldn't have shut down the plane by mistake. 176 people just die like chicken cos of Trump.

Okay! First off, you need to COMMUNICATE reasons why you've taken the steps you've taken so far..for transparency sakes. You even need to have them documented in an Employee handbook. Let that clear the air about their false accusations.. Let the world see your corporate goals and what you're trying to achieve.

Secondly, you need to weed out as many as you deem are not for the progress of the school. You can use a Consulting company to carry out a staff audit to execute this! You seem to be running on sentiments...and that's what they've been using to exploit the school. If you're SURE they've abused the opportunity and are not for the progress of the institution, they have to leave...for the progress of the school and safety of your life!

Then recruit competent hands using a Consulting firm too...they have to be strategic with this. And ensure it's with a company that offers recruitment replacement warranty at no cost should you not find any of the new hires hitting the ground running. To attract the best new hands you can improve on the pay slightly in order to be competitive and retain them.

If you're in Lagos, you can talk to me for more guidance. I'm a Human Resources Consultant.
