Evening NLanders, Please anyone who knows an NGO that I can contact for financial support for a friend. A 200-level student of University of Ilorin is in dere need of financial help to pay her school fees. A late registration fee (N7,500) has already been added to her N28,000 approx. school fees, failure to pay in 5 days time will attract another N7,500 fine.

All effort to get this said amount from her sponsor/guardian proved abortive, school exams commence on 20th Sept, 2021 and I can't say what awaits her if she fails to pay the school fees. I will appreciate anyone who can recommend any NGO that help student in this instance.

His shipping theme, Hope '93 was lost for every Nigerian

Hope for a country devoid of security threat was lost
Hope for leaders free of oppression was lost
Hope of waking up one day to a Nigeria we all want was lost
Hope of common Nigerians to freedom of speech was lost
Hope of our electoral power to enthrone or dethroned was lost

The Hope were lost and have never returned
Good morning Nigeria

Not to waste this space I selfishly secured, I honestly wish I have something to say but I don't have. This epitomizes what brings those clueless leaders to power, they are just there because they want that power, that freedom to do and undo, they are never capable of ruling. They come, they mess things up.

Many issues were discussed in the interview. On IBB's, Bode George is right about SW welcoming IBB with open arms if he visits the region. We, as Nigerians tend to forget history easily and we celebrate those who skewed the history for us.

He (Bode George) was also celebrated after being discharged and acquainted of the corruption allegation levied against him in 2011. Hamza Mustapha was celebrated when he was released.

One of the problems we have as Nigerians is that we forget history easily and we pave way for bad histories to repeat themselves. If there is a third term in Presidency, I am sure PMB will still amass many votes from many Nigerians, that shows how Nigerians never want the true freedom that democracy promises.

I have heard great things about this man like generating and returning about 40bn to the federation account when before he came Jamb had not returned up to 1bn total to the Federation account. Also, his tenure as VC Uniilorin.

I hope these are true.

If so, he is highly regarded by me and i would not forget his name again

Very very true

I am an ugly woman. Objectively, I really am. Please don't argue with me on this one, I am not overweight, actually in better shape than most women my age, I dress well, I am great with makeup. But last weekend the world just had to remind me that despite all this, people will go out of their way to kick me.
I don't often go clubbing, but Saturday night was a special occasion. A friend was celebrating her 21st, and it was also the weekend after a long week of brutal exams. It felt like a good time to blow off some steam. Because I don't often go clubbing, I really tried this night to look nice. There was an outfit that I had bought a long time ago, but that I'd never worn because it was a little sexier than what I usually wear. A close friend had picked it out for me when we were shopping, and, in that "you go girl" kind of way had urged me to buy it. I did my makeup painstakingly, straightened my hair which always takes forever because my hair is huge, put on that too-sexy-for-me outfit. And when I looked in the mirror I was even surprised at myself. "Wow, is that me? I actually look...nice!"
I showed my friends. They all said I looked great. And they MEANT it too. Like, genuine happy encouragement. I could tell they were sincere and it made me feel so good, like for once I wasn't just masquerading as an attractive girl with fancy makeup and clothes, but that I WAS the attractive girl. I hadn't felt so attractive in ages, Reddit.
When we got to the club, we got a nasty surprise. We had been told that tonight there was no cover charge for girls, and so none of us had brought much cash on our person. Well, our info was wrong. They did indeed ask for a cover. Only one of us 6 girls had cash, and she only had enough to cover two people. When we got to the door and found this out, a group of guys behind us volunteered to help us out. They each forked over a couple of bucks to cover my friends, but not one of them offered to cover me. One by one my friends were let in and they waited on the other side of the door until everyone got through. The guys were doing everything to avoid eye contact with me. They were looking at the ground, the street, pretending to look through their wallets for cash to cover one more girl. It was so painfully obvious that I felt like just going home. Luckily, my friend with the extra cash covered me so I was allowed in.
Well, once we were inside I thought I could just forget about that incident. I had dressed up and come out, to have a good time and relax. So for a while I danced with my friends. It wasn't long before other guys started dancing with us. We kind of paired off slowly, there was a guy whose two buddies had started dancing with other girls and he was left alone. At that point I too had lost track of my friends and was alone. He started dancing with me, but the whole time he seemed really distracted. Not once did he really look at my face, he was kinda looking around the club the whole time, like he was browsing the scene for another, more attractive girl he could bounce to. In less than 10 minutes, he had seen one. He peaced out without a word, and I saw him dancing a few minutes later with a very attractive brunette. The way he acted with her was just SO different than when he had danced with me. He was face to face with her, smiling, dancing enthusiastically.
That made my stomach drop. I went to the bar, found one of my friends who was sitting there with a guy. She introduced us, he bought everyone drinks. After a while I felt like a bit of a third wheel so I went back to the dance floor. Eventually my group of girls regathered together. Everyone had a guy, except for one of them who had a bf at home. So I danced with her, with our friends and their guys near us.
There was a photographer going around the club, taking pictures of the people there. I assume it was for some promo for their website or something. He got to our group, and literally circled us several times, taking several pics from different angles. I was kind of psyched about this, so I did my best to look like I was having a good time, made sure he could snap me at my best. But after a while I realized he wasn't circling us to get our best angles. He was trying to get a frame without ME. If I moved closer to the center of the group, for instance, he would tilt his camera a little the other way. I couldn't believe it until finally, he actually came up to me and asked me to get out of the shot.
I felt so ugly right then. For all the effort I had put into looking and feeling good that night, it seemed like it just didn't matter. So the night ends with me leaving the club. My friend with the bf at home who was dancing with me left with me so I wouldn't be alone. The rest of my girl friends didn't notice what had happened with the photographer, so when they asked me where I was going I just told them I was tired and wanted to go home. And since I wasn't leaving alone, they let me.
So yeah, that's my story from the weekend.
Please be kinder to ugly people, Reddit. Maybe one of the people I met that night will read this post and recognize themselves. I hope so, if only so they can know how behavior they're barely conscious of can affect someone else.

This is disheartened

How can you tell me this is not a witch

Those actresses that look like this in foreign movies that I watch are always wicked.

I didn't read but OP is 100% right.

Reading news these days can deny someone his sanity. Bodies of those in the 18-seater bus that was reportedly plunged into a river today have never been recovered. This is a bad bad news.

If she is from other continent, she would have been adjudged the oldest human still living.

I am not talking of hs country. I am talking about you.
It may not look like much to you as you are not an aviator or an inventor bit it matters.

Let's even go with this your logic..... when learning a programming language, if it's not important, why do they still teach you the basics and how to write scripts from the scratch? Since stuff has already been done they might as well just ask you to go rip off someone else's code since afterall you shouldn't reinvent the wheel

Good question, truly you are right, they would teach me how to code from the scratch, I need to understand everything that's happening behind the scene. The same way they will teach and train him if he has the chance to be hired.

My argument lies in the fact that some people have worked effortlessly to create certain things in the past, you, just coming do not need to start afresh, it is a waste of time, and you can't even be as smart as they are.

I used to be a programming purist, I would want to create everything myself when there are perfect libraries/packages/frameworks that have been created to do the same thing I am racking my brain to create. I discovered that I would only end up in a dead end, writing a lot of codes, still I wouldn't beat the best and smart ones out there. I then started watching videos of how even senior programmers do things, it was then I discovered that they use a lot of people's work (libraries, frameworks, funtions, modules) to create what they want to develop, in return, they save time and effort and focus on the big thing they want to create.

I never condemned the guy's brilliance and efforts, I was only of the opinion that he was trying to create what has been perfectly created before. No investor will look at his creation, they know where to go if they want to key their money somewhere. Again, I didn't blame him for his death, I blamed death for his death, death happens whenever it feels so no matter what one does.

I love people that challenge my belief, only trying to establish what I think should be against what I think shouldn't be. Your own statements are plausible, I'm just trying to win you over, I want to see how far you can go before you align with me.
