A lady once told me I am the first guy she visited who never attempted to lure her into sex.

. I knew someone will mention Jonathan, not disappointed, in twenty years to come you guys will still be attributing all your failures in life to Jonathan.

Always do well to understand people's comment before quoting them..
I'm not pro buhari..
But why single out buhari for blame when the whole issue started from Jonathan.
Why not blame both of them.
The truth is that nairalanders are too partisan and it beclouds their judgments

rummmy:
blaming Gej as usual

I believe u don't understand what I was driving at.

Buhari shortsighted fight against MTN made Nigeria the overall loser without MTN losing anything . See below what this short sightedness cost Nigeria .

We lost the Nigerian CEOship of MTN Nigeria and many other senior posts .

1 .100s of Local SMEs MTN patronised lost patronage and billions of Naira in revenue

2 We lost Project fame that helped move a lot of Nigerians to fame. E.g Inyanya , praise .

3 We lost the sponsorship of Who wants to be a millionaire which supported a lot of small Nigerian businesses from studio owners to make up artist and even Frank Edoho has been broke and unemployed since then .

4 Our Financial system lost over 20 billion dollars in capital flight as MTN and Etisalat moved out their capital overnight to save it from Buhari threats .

5 Caused us a loss of FDI said to be in range of about 15 billion dollars as no investor felt Nigeria was a safe investment again to invest as a result of what happened to governor.

6 MTN subscribers in Nigeria were forced to pay for the 300 million dollars Buhari Govt finally milked them of.

Buhari is very shortsighted in all his approach to governance and can only make things worse with his style of leadership ..

but this whole thing started during Jonathan's government

I wonder what will be going through the minds of these whites towards Africa...
Nobody ever mentions Africa when it comes to military power...
We are not just doing anything...
We are just existing for the sake of existing...
And we will surely be ordered around by the whites because a threat of war if we fail to do their biddings is enough to tear us apart

Flier:
Lol he want them to sell sachet water in traffic
That is the man they called messiah
That is 20.000 naira each

Then they will still go to the traffic or roadside to chase them away...
Why not give 80 people 500k and monitor them or 40 people 1M each...
Those will end up employing more people, have more dependants and the biz not crash easily...

Why do people have to wait till January 1st to make 'New Year resolutions?

How is January 1st different from April 4, June 12 or September 15?

Is it not simple?
It marks a new beginning.
If it doesn't work for you doesn't mean it doesn't work for people...
My first resolution was many years back when I was seeking admission. I was very resolute to getting admitted that year after I wasn't granted my course of choice after my first JAMB.
I set January 2 for serious studying. I had all the fun I could in the preceding December and I resumed reading on the 2nd as proposed... Trust me, the admission came so easily.
After then, I have tried it many other times which have worked.
I will be writing some international exams next year and I gave January 2 as official start up date. Speedy and well defined studying pattern. I turned down a better job offer which would have my salary doubled, but my current job gives me ample time to study and the new one wouldn't.
If I have not had that strong resolution against next year, I would have picked the job..
That's the resolution working already.

So anything with a new beginning makes it easy to aim for something new..

Also I had plans to set up certain things once I get married (which is a new beginning) and I'm strongly working towards it...

It is so difficult to wake up one morning and say I want to do this, then achieve it.
I once woke up one morning and it was the ending of January, and I said to myself, I want to leave my father's house... Without previous thoughts about it and I was comfortable in the house. I set the ending of February and by March 3, I paid for an apartment..

It's just about yourself primarily though but a plan to a new beginning makes it easier... And makes it easier to measure if one failed with the resolution or not. Because at the end of the year, u judge yourself.

PS: 2019 was a beautiful year for me. Thanking baba God for that and I pray for increase in 2020

@ lalasticlala, seun
We will appreciate more of foreign news like this on the front page..
Thanks.

I needed her to see her condition. It's a normal way of turning people with psychotic conditions to become aware to their realities. It's called forceful hammering. Pampering her would encourage her. To correct people in such situation, only making them see their ways as distasteful forces an inner fortitude to initiate a change, from their own inner fortress. I wanted her to see her self realistically, hate it and stimulate a change

How effective is this method of conditioning? People with these chronic disorders end up making escuses for themselves and continue their lifestyle...
BTW, you are intelligent, I must say!

Stop using people. Be better. Stop taking people for a ride with your emotional recklessness


Use and discard. Passive Narcissistic personality disorder. Go see a therapist. You're a destroyer


You also have an over-inflated ego. The world doesn't revolve around you. And No, you're not too good for everyone.


You're an egomaniac that exists for feel-good vibes only with a detached feeling from regular existence. Go see a therapist. You're pathetic

If u diagnosed a personality disorder and you recommended a therapist why did you still condemn her that much?

Like blaming a psychotic patient that hears voices and has no insight, for attempting murder.

Midas01:
You're making unfounded claims by just saying women are playing the victim card, when really they are the victims in most cases.

Take Teebillz and Tiwa for instance,
Tiwa gets called a hoe every time there's a story about her simply due to her bad marriage whereas her estranged husband who has several kids from several women hardly gets any. One of his kids is an adult too but still he drinks, smokes, even posted his nude photo once, and does all manner of things a grown man shouldn't be doing but people only bash his wife Tiwa.

Take Ubi and Lilian Esoro's case. Everyone blamed the woman for their divorce even after it was discovered he got another woman pregnant shortly after marrying Lilian. It was when the third babymama was unvieled that people began to absolve Lilian of any faults.

Also, look at our celebrities, David, Wizkid etc who all have multiple kids and multiple babymamas, they almost never get bashed, but let a female try it, the whole of Africa willbe on her case.

I believe in gender equality and I advocate it as much as I can.
But not when things are very visible and people still just want to talk, then it's nothing but playing the victim card..
Go through the thread and see how people castigated 9ce. The parents distanced themselves from the marriage, is that not condemnation enough? Yet, someone from nowhere said no one was saying anything.
Is it until he is murdered?

All I will just say is that, "it is good to be good". I think the OP succeeded in increasing his customer base.

imiski:
This country Nigeria is unfair to women. If it was a woman getting married for even the second time, she would be labeled as a LovePeddler with bad character that can't keep a man.

mrssomebody:
they are going to come for u lol...but it's liberating to see a guy think like this. The society is really unfair to women.

Nobody is talking and the parents distanced themselves from the wedding. And harsh comments on nairaland...

People stigmatize men who leave their wives for whatever reason and single ladies avoid them.
I hate it when ladies play victim card. What do we say about the man saying same?

I'm still waiting for the final truth..
Gradually surfacing

Rawtruth1:
How did he get ten million naira? I thought their pay is meager and their real reward is in heaven?

Read, read read.
Always read!

My brake failed on 3rd mainland last night

I copied the story to Google in order to read the full story from a different blog since I know it's all copy and paste..
I prefer that to clicking that link

You are simply not smart. You need not cheat to pass it once if u were smart

Is it that nothing is meant to work in this country?

She's pretty herself

They must have met in viewing centre

I don't even have energy to type. But the new one I noticed about Nigerians is that why they come in as an emergency, they are very loyal. As soon as they get better, Chai, you start seeing razor blade mouth and funny attitudes...

Especially island patients. They talk down on their doctora under the guise that they are sophisticated and they know their rights.

I laughed bitterly when one told me " Doctor, you need to do whatever thing I want, no matter how silly it is because I am paying my bills".
After the whole event, attending to her husband, I had to call her that " madam, see don't ever tell someone you entrust the life of your loved one on, that you are paying. Yes, you are paying, but this is not a kind of bread and butter trade, this is life". She had to apologize.
Working in a big hospital and meeting big people is cool but this people are too saucy.

I had to call a friend working in the UK and ask if this oyinbo people are rude to their doctors and he said they are very respectful.
So where did they get their own madness from?

midnighter:
They were just using that woman as a scapegoat.

Her supervisor didnt show up and left her to look after like 50 patients alone. Then they allowed him to fly back to Ireland

The staff swapped the boy to another bed without informing her. The bed they moved him to had an order saying not to resuscitate if the patient fell unconscious and thats how he died

The people who wanted to sack her are a bunch of racists.

You see, most people's comment here is borne out of ignorance.. Some believe the way they think is the way the doctor should think also.
Someone was talking about typhoid and appendicitis which are close in diagnosis. Funnily, the person could actually be having appendicitis and get better on the same antibiotics prescribed for the typhoid and end up not needing surgery.
Some blaming a doctor for adverse drug effect.
Someone said what he had was symptoms of high cholesterol but the doctor said something else. Cholesterol has no specific symptoms.
Someone said the doctor was already giving him drip before the test result which is a standard practice. You don't wait for result most times before administering fluids.

One said he was given ibuprofen for headache by a doctor. So what do u want for an headache he probably think it's primary?
Abrg Nigerians have failed this doctors' effort I must say
One woman went to Facebook to condemn the doctor seeing her relative. Blasted the doctor for giving glucose containing fluid for someone who was suffering from diabetes.
That is a very correct management cos at a point in managing diabetes complications you ensure you add a dextrose fluid because of the insulin. So your patient wont have sudden low sugar which kills faster..

And I wonder why they are only talking about the bad experiences...
95% of my patients leave my office daily saying thank you wholeheartedly...
Doctors propose to the government what should be done to improve the health system and its not done.
Hypocrites will not channel their brunts against the government but the doctors working under terrible conditions...
When they completely leave the country and it gets to a point where u need to kidnap the few remaining in order to answer to your need only then will they undersand.
Or you think oyinbo doctors will strive here? They will fail big time under this harsh condition.
There are bad ones but it's not as bad as it's being stated.
Give kudos when necessary

My own is that these oyinbo people are not wise.
Day in day out u see pictures of different children circulating the internet with the ages stated.
This tiny boy is 15yrs old.
When we want to present boys for under 17,they suddenly become big and muscular.
And the oyinbos are not asking if they underwent any special dieting before selection..

anonymuz:
Nigeria a country i fear more than the so called hell

Always quick at condemning your country..
This is crime and this is human. There are bad people everywhere.

I was watching a programme this morning where am American guy was informing the citizens to beware of phone snatchers while the victim is in the car.
Was surprised to know it happens in the USA too.

Just like someone said, what Nigerians call "bribery" is mostly called "lobbying" by Americans

We need to work against bad people. They are everywhere

Truth is, in as much as he is incompetent, there's little he can do.

He can't stop the violence. He can't stop the tugs from being used.
And he can't influence the tribunal...

He makes judgments based on the figures tabled before him..
Nigerian election is now for the best riggers


Blame Bubu for poor security and blame the law court...
300 Jegas will fail under this act

At this stage, Mourinho is only experimenting.
He is fulfilled already

gandyluv:
are u also a beneficiary??

Nope, I'm just stating how messed up things are

I have not got my October salary too

Shibaraba:
Don't drive it for now if you're staying in the mainland. All the roads are bad. Unless you want make your car dey twerk as you dey drive
