Someone sent you an airtime PIN from their phone, why on earth would you need to send it back to them.

The text message they sent is still in their phone even if they have thrown away the airtime paper slip and can't have access to it.

What I'll simply reply him would be "Sir, if you texted me airtime PIN, then you should just check your Sent messages and retrieve the PIN from there, I don't recharge PINs from unknown numbers"

This scam is smart, it first assesses how intelligent you are before engaging further.

Why do men like masquerading as women on this platform?

Whenever I hear that someone committed suicide in Nigeria, I always find my brain querying if it is not homicide masked under suicide.

So this is hilarious and would make it as funny as possible.

We were directed to take a different exit route if we intend using a taxi so we moved our cart to the exit point. A lady was in front of us and one traveller at a time is only allowed to exit in order not to make the front of the airport rowdy. When the lady in front us exited, a crazy cold breeze slapped my essence that I turned to my wife what just happened. She didn't have an answer and I wasn't sure if what hit me was the AC within JFK airport or it just came from outside. When it got to our turn and we exited, the cold was unbelievable. "But they said they are in spring, how come it is this cold?" I asked the taxi driver. The driver laughed and just said "welcome to New York". We packed our stuff in the car and moved.

Our destination was about 40 minutes away and all I had my eyes on was the fare meter. Something that was reading peacefully just added $6.55 after passing a bridge immediately. "Ah, do you guys have Tinubu or LCC here?", I exclaimed. The black driver laughed but didn't get the joke. "Please, how come $6.55 jumped on the fare just now?", I asked. "Oh, that's normal around here. It applies to Queens Midtown, blah blah blah..." At this time, the fare had jumped to $49 dollars and I kept wondering what the eventual fare would be after arriving our temporary destination.

Long story short, we arrived and fare cost was $69.10. Mi rogo! Lori taxi!? . I almost had instant migraine because the Nigerian in me just started converting $70 to Naira, in line with the latest Black Market Rate. While I was lost in thoughts, the driver jokingly asked if I wouldn't tip him after driving the long distance. I looked at him in confusion. "But I just paid you, I know tipping you isn't important. The Nigerian in me is converting the fare and you are asking that I tip you again?" E wo l'eleyi bayii? "So, how much do I tip you?" I asked, trying to prepare my mind for one unbelievable response. He looked at me and responded; "usually, it is 20% of the fare", about $7 or so", he replied. I gave him $10 from the $30 change he gave to me, converted $77 to Naira on the spot while he thanked us and drove away. I was shivering almost two minutes after alighting while trying to move our bags into our host's apartment. Cold ran up my spine even with a jacket on and was almost shaking. It isn't even in Utah yet or even winter but spring and the cold is this insane. Nothing prepares you for this as a Nigerian. Nothing does.

"But they said they are in Spring" got me rolling in laughter.

Including the okada rider I can count 10. Are you sure this is not a bus instead of a motorcycle?

I just hope they were only posing for the camera.

He is a flight risk, no judge will ever grant him bail.

Nikrose:
Yes, calm down and read! I know most of you guys entered this thread with violence

Apart from some ladies suffering from low self-esteem n inferiority complex. Nigerian men are one of the major cause of dark skinned ladies bleaching their skin!
It is obvious and glaring that most Nigerian men have set their beauty standard of a lady to she being fair skinned, once a lady is fair skinned she is automatically beautiful and attractive!! Most men are guilty of this!!!

Most men seems to prefer and attracted to a fair-skinned ladies than the dark skinned ladies, which will end up making them bleach their skin to be attractive and preferred.

Gone are those days, when true African/Nigerian beauty were being appreciated, we are African and we are mainly dark skinned people as a black race! In the good old days where people like Agbani darego are seen for their true African beauty unlike nowadays in the model, fashion & beauty pageant world where once you a lady is light skinned, she have higher changes of winning and succeeding!

Foreigners & Outsider Men now appreciate and cherish our true African dark skinned ladies more than most of our African/Nigerian men!!! Just like how 5yrs old Jare Ijalana was made the most beautiful girl in the world for her true African beauty few years ago!

Well to the beautiful dark skinned ladies out there, appreciate and rock your skin with pride and confidence, stop the bleaching that is not who you truly are!!! Let's appreciate our African queens.

Sadly this post is just an opinion and in no way factual.

Let me rephrase your topic for you, "I think Nigerian men are the reason why most ladies bleach".

When you carry out a research by randomly sampling 100 bleaching ladies and taking into account why the started bleaching their skins then you can come publish your findings as being factual.

Ndibuna:
So this female colleague of mine doesn't pick my call when I need to get information of the happenings in the office yet I pick hers and always ready to give her reliable information concerning work.
I urgently needed her one day and had to call again, she didn't pick my calls, she didn't apologise afterwards. I had to block her. So she needed me again and called my number and it wasn't going through. When she saw me she reacted negatively and wasn't talking to me. But do I care? She's not useful to me but want me to be useful to her

If you truly didn't care, you wouldn't be telling us about it.

Baloranking:
Still man city for league na gra gra una dey do

Nobody is saying that City are not favorites. But if there is even a sliver of possibility, we will keep hoping.

YNWA.

What did the "girlfriend" do wrong to deserve a poor, hungry thief.

I think it is not about having more money, because he had money while playing for Chelsea. I think he is more interested in how he looks than he did before.

80 Billion wow! What are you going to do with all that money. That's almost 200 million dollars with today's CBN rate.

I don't understand why some people feel the need to accumulate wealth from stealing, money that they will never need.

Everyday we keep hearing of Abacha's loot being recovered. And this level of greed just amazes me.

nnennachiji:
I just started learning how to sew two weeks ago here in America
It’s different compared to Nigeria. I think I prefer Nigeria method
Here the use mainly patterns compared to Nigeria where you are taught how to take measurements

Did you learn how to sew in Nigeria too, considering you know the "Nigeria" method enough to have a preference for it.

Your boy is rocking the outfit well, you just found yourself your boy model.

Moferere:
Always read to avoid sounding stupid.

Read the whole news, not just the headlines. He's just a documentary film maker that was arrested because some Illiterate Peoples of Biafra pressed the panic button.

How ironic, you are the one who probably didn't read the post and ended up sounding stupid.

Carthman:
Sometimes we no suppose Dey wait for government before we do justice o.
Why boys no fit go that Lekki phase 1 give those aboki bike men better kala for head one after the other.
So painful
Rip to the dead .

The problem with your comment is that you're making a generalization that all "aboki" are the same as the ones that orchestrated the lynching.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

It is however sad that our security and justice system is so poor and comatose.

lexy2014:
Did u show both pix to someone who doesn't know ramires and the person couldn't spot the difference?

If u are saying only people who doesn't know ramires can't spot the difference, that means people who know him can recognize him in his new look. Therefore, it isn't "totally unrecognizable".

The essence of telling you to show someone that doesn't know him is so that there is no bias, maybe the person has seen him recently and hence there will be a bias.

Here is what I did anyway, I just cropped out his new picture and showed my brother who is a diehard Chelsea fan and he didn't recognize him and then I told him, that guy was a Chelsea player and after looking critically at the picture he still didn't recognize him, then I showed him the old pic and he screamed "Na, Ramires be that? He don fine oh"

Now that's totally unrecognizable to him. Maybe not for you, so that's why I asked you to do the research yourself with someone else.

lexy2014:
how is this "totally unrecognisable"?

Show both pics to someone who doesn't know Ramires and ask them if they think both persons are the same.

Was Nnamdi Kanu granted bail after he jumped his first bail or is this house arrest?

Or this could be an old picture ere he jumped bail and ere Soludo became governor.

siofra:
Stop saying "your face show" please it's ratchet and annoying. Somebody will just be walking on the street, you'll go and appear in front of her and shout "omo babe, your face show" no matter how well you're dressed, at that moment you look broke to me

Stop saying "fine geh" it makes you sound broke and uneducated too. It shows you have no other words in your vocabulary to describe an attractive girl. It's generic and boring.


Stop telling yellow girls they look like mammy water you sound diabolical and broke and uneducated too.

Thanks

Using such vocabulary might make them sound uneducated, but there is no correlation between poverty and such language.

While being uneducated most times would translate to poverty, but it is not always the case and there are some uneducated "toutish" folks who have money and are nothing close to being called broke.

Mooh247:
Murder is ranked 1000

Insult of God and similar provocation 20

I said, 1 to 100. That's the scale. 1000 is not feasible by that scale.

This girl is apparently not intelligent. Not even a tiny bit, and yet she is a graduate.

Education in Nigeria has gone to the gutters.

Anfieldboss:
Our chances of winning the EPL is very slim. Bear it in mind that Klopp will need to rest majority of the first team players against Southampton due to fatigue.

I know that's why I added that City are still favorites by a mile.

Mooh247:
Yeah and his statement condemning anyone who insult his Creator and maker is not out of place

He didn't support the killing of Deborah

He only ask people not to insult his own God

You get an angry if anyone insults your mother, Americans get angry when anyone insults their Country and Flag, Isrealites got angry when a Messiah claimed to be their Gods Son

While we preach against murder let's preach against insult of other people's God and maker

Could you answer a question for me? Murder and "Insulting other people's God", if you were to rank both on a scale of 1 to 100, 1 for mild and 100 for outrightly heinous. How will you rank both?

So he is believing in Tinubu in Kwankwaso's party it's alright.

In a game of two losers, Man U emerged the greatest winner

Their Europa league hope is still alive.

At half time Liverpool must have thought "What? We are back in the race, it is only a matter of matching City goal difference". Well that was what I thought.

Now we can only hope on Gerrard to at least draw them and barring if we win our other 2 matches just with one goal each. The league will be ours.

If Jerry can pull this off, then his replacement of Klopp will be set on stone literally.

Howbeit, City are still favorites to lift the league trophy by a mile.

Keep hope alive. YNWA

Jokerman:
Liverpool and Man city just dey win all the trophies.

So if not for Man city, Liverpool for win quadruple ... Well Westham to defeat man city tomorrow

Man City will die in that pitch than watch West Ham win or even draw them.

NeoWanZaeed:
So klopp is winning treble this season..

Tuchel..see your life ehn

Tuchel has double. Club World Cup and Super Cup.

NeoWanZaeed:
Which star studded.. our team too na star studded. We could have won this if kepa dey pole for penalties.

He won't screw up twice ( I mean kepa)

Tuchel should have trusted him

So that you guys will come and persecute him like you did in the Carabao cup final.

olawonder:
Be careful with your utterances

Before you visit him with the Deborah treatment huh?

ihustler:
We know them...

The pain and anguish they are feeling right now is inexpressible simply because they know that they can't kill Debbie twice.

In their minds, they wished they could kill her again.

Interestingly, Boko Haram is all over them but they are as cowards that they are, they cannot mobilize like this for Boko Haram but when it comes to a defenseless person, you see them with different shades of weapons..

It is only once that you can take a life, ad bad as he bad all of us dey go whether 5 years, or 40 years after....

The average Muslim folk, especially the ones that practice Islam zealously pray for Boko Haram to overrun the country.
