Nigerians sees INSURANCE as a waste of money 💰

Some will argue with you that what if he or she pays for insurance for 10 years without any incidents happen within the years, do you know how much I have wasted ?

Ignorance is a disease

The first thing is that, is something supposed to happen? Is it normal for something to happen?

Clearly, you are an insurance marketer

LZAA:
OP shey you don hear

Ashirioluwa:
Public distrust and low participation in the Nigerian insurance sector are major challenges, driven by historic issues with claims settlement, poor awareness, and economic constraints..

The most important one is that insurance is WRONG!

If no one is wickedly enter faring in my business, nothing bad would happen. But bad things happen because bad people (bandits/mafia) have come

LZAA:
I have answered this question here before
So let me say it again
In a very religious and conservative country like Nigeria selling INSURANCE is a massive risk because majority believe in spiritual insurance so the best any insurance company can do is to target organizations, high net worth businesses and business people
Simple
It's not that hard
🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️

Insurance is a scam.

Why would fire just catch my building if it is not that evil somebody from the insurance company came and did it?

You mean those thieves?

Liability is already personal so why should I pay somebody to pay my liability?

They are all thieves and the same people who burnt businesses so that people could start paying them.

So, insurance and banks is just like paying the mob not to burn your business

An immoral parent can raise a moral child, just as a moral parent can raise an immoral child.

Children are not photocopies of their parents.

Sometimes, they learn what to do from their parents; other times, they learn what not to do.

Natural living proves otherwise. A mother who is a sex seller cannot bear a daughter who does not want to sell herself sexually.

All in all, if a child is different from his parents it is because the child chose to be so.

Abraham was different from his father and from their separation it is seen that the father cannot take credit him. Same for David and his father. Whereas in David and Solomon we can see David giving Solomon all the moralities he had even though later Solomon chose to walk his own way

Meanwhile, compare it to Moses and Jethro and Jethro was not even Moses's father by blood.

Roycemadeit:
You just compared a mannequin made from plastic to a God described as Father with a Son. 😂

The question is whether calling God “Father” and Jesus “Son” carries gendered meaning. You can't turn around and say God is beyond gender whenever the implications become uncomfortable, while insisting on calling him Father and referring to his child as Son.

I'm not saying God must have human biology. I'm saying the language used to describe him is gendered. Those are two different things. Your mannequin analogy hasn't addressed that distinction. Na you dey confuse the matter, then insult person when your analogy no fit answer the point.

See you're so used to lying and unaligning things that you no longer see what is true. Like a person using broken coke bottle to see. I definitely compared the mannequin to you, describing that you are seeing God exactly how a mannequin using your thinking sees you.

So, your question asking for God's gender is invalid and nullified it is arising from your limitation of knowledge of gender. So, you fallaciously think that God too must have a gender exactly as a mannequin thinking like you must say that you are made of plastic and rubber.

If God was to speak His own language would any man understand Him? No.
So exactly how a good teacher uses words a child can understand and relate to is why the Bible uses words we understand and relate to.

It's all about passing a message we need to us whilst He has no need for such information. Man's life would still be as it is even if God never Spoke to us.

With my 4 days work I could earn 900 dollars per week.

With 40% of my day job I could fill my car tank. Although my car is hybrid. Going full electric tesla soon

Have u seen tesla car?

Have u got electricity 24/7?

U talk of racism but in Nigeria u have the worst tribalism... U guys hate each other


The evil and bad things of life u guys should eradicate it first

In all of these ones you are alone. Your wife is a stranger and your kids don't feel like your own. You have lights and televisions but it is not sweet and enjoyable. You buy the latest cars but in a few months you find it very boring and now you are looking for another car to make you happy. You people are always pursuing things that would make you happy but can never get it. And then in old age, sorry... You die alone and depressed in the presence of people who don't care about you.

Whereas here, bad as e bad we got someone and many things to make us smile everyday. We are even happy when nepa takes light because it means i get to go out and meet the crazy guy who makes my day and to see/experience something new. Also, we did not buy generators not to use them.

And as far as we have a car, we are fine. No place is too far. And if ac dey, sweet. Big boy, nuff respect to last a lifetime as during weddings, you are the star.

And yes there is tribalism however, tribalism is only when they are to give you a benefit, if not every tribe has mutual respect for each other. An ibo man can still ask for help and directions from the yoruba man and the Urhobo person will still give good advice eg "my guy no buy dat moto, e no good" to a kogi guy, unlike your place where your next door neighbour is an enemy.

So, here is better. Lot's of whites are now staying here, they know it is better

In the west where I am this kind of things can't happen.

If u are given a visa to the United States, Germany or United Kingdom u will grab it and go to mosque or church for testimony.

Look at how bandit are dealing with u guys

They have done it all is why it can't happen. They can't condemn what they are guilty of not to talk of that they have done worse like beastiality and bleeping car exhaust pipes, mannequins, trees etc.
They can't condemn what they are guilty of and done worse.

And no, since you people have to work 2 jobs of 14 to 22 hours a day, 6 or 7days a week to live, in insalts, discrimination and constsnt fear of prison and civil suits, that is not a way to live.

Ever heard of Droit du seigneur -'right of the lord'?

and

"jus primae noctis" -'right of the first night',?

This refers to the right a feudal lords (landlord, omo-nile, Baale/Chief/Oba whether a honourable man or vagabond agbero placed by the ruling armed man) to have sexual relations with any female subject, particularly on her wedding night.

AI Overview
A feudal lord was a noble (or crook)who held land (fiefs) and exercised military power over that territory in exchange for loyalty and service.

Roles and Responsibilities
• Land Grants (Fiefs): The lord distributed portions of land to vassals (lesser nobles or knights) who swore an oath of fidelity.

• Protection and Justice: In exchange for service, the lord provided military protection, settled disputes, and ran a local court for his vassals and serfs.

• Reciprocal Obligations: Vassals owed the lord military service, financial aids, and counsel, forming a mutual network of duties.

• Control Over Peasants: At the base of the structure, serfs and peasants farmed the lord's land, paying rent in crops or labor in exchange for security

So, you see where taxes and rents come from and why if you do not pay they are the same ones who cause your insecurity and death.

So, do you see how very very bad it was before God came and made it better through Christianity for us today?

In the past, it was not a crime to steal property that one had been given to look after

This started changing because God had moved and the Carrier's case 1473 came pronounced such a person a theif

AI Overview
The Carrier's Case (Anonymous v. The Sheriff of London, 1473) is a landmark English common-law decision from the Star Chamber that established the "breaking bulk" doctrine in the history of larceny and theft

It was more dangerous to steal a loaf of bread than commit murder- If you killed a man in 14th-century England, there was a good chance you’d get away with it.

Not because the law was soft, or justice disorganised — in fact, homicide was a capital offence. But because the system, and the society around it, often preferred to look the other way.

"The jury often reached a not guilty verdict simply because they thought, ‘This person doesn’t deserve to be hanged’”, explains Professor Manuel Eisner, speaking on the HistoryExtra podcast

It's very clear in that video that that road is busy, highway or not, any road where taxis are doing stop and pick is a busy road and common sense should take pre-eminence over driving school rules that you need to slow down. If you kill yourself, it's not the driving school rules that killed you, it's your failure to use your common sense.
Finally, this is a faceless forum but there are people here that are living lives that you can only dream about. I drive cars that you only see in movies.

If you call that busy highway then what would you call Sagamu junction on the Benin Lagos highway or abaji on the Lokoja Abuja Highway where vehicle?

Yes, common sense rules, but full liability is upon anyone around the expressway to be very mindful. In America, it is right to crash through the bus and the bus driver would still be wrong and him and his insurance company will still pay for all damages and all. They are even looking for this kind of mistake to use to get money and change their vehicles

Here in Nigeria we even try to brake and dodge the careless wop

So, today you call these things wickedness, atrocities, abominations, evil, disregard and violation of human rights etc. but before Christianity, they were normal living conditions.

Sango was there, he did not do anything. Buddha was there, he neither did something. Allah was there, he and his worshippers were registering their subscription to atrocities, so they did nothing to stop it.

No god of any people or nation physically or spiritually did anything to stop any of these wickednesses until God, The Only and True God moved. He Who chose and took the family and little nation called Isreal to present and represent Him to the world.

It is still Him Who Moved and Came and wiped out all these old atrocities and evils that were even normal and accepted in the world before He came that today we are enjoying so much liberties and rights that atheists and children of Belial are even saying there is no God. And that if there is no God why hasn't He stopped all the atrocities? When in fact He had already done so even before they were born and knew the word called "atrocities".

So, here are some of the atrocities that was going on and were normal before God came and wiped them all up and gave us the freedom and salvation that we are now enjoying and even abusing

History cannot get lost. It gets forgotten, hidden, covered up, perverted but it would always be there and it would always surface up.

Mehmet Murat ildan:
"When you hide anything, the universe begins its attempts to reveal it! Did you hide in the darkness? The sun begins to rise! Did you hide behind the curtain, the wind starts to blow! You cover your face with paint, it starts to rain! You cannot hide things, other things reveal it!"

"He does not believe that does not live according to his belief " Thomas Fuller

So anyone claiming "God fearing" but cannot be reasonably said to be God fearing, cannot be taken seriously on it.

Actions always speaks louder and clearer than words

This story just shows how bad and very evil those days were and that God intervened and saved humanity through the coming of Christianity

https://www.nairaland.com/8770418/god-tru-christianity-saved-mankind#140983686

In those days, a strong man or a rich man could just take your wife, children and property and there was nothing you or anyone could do about it.

Here is where you see the story of Ejigbadero shows you how you all are enjoying today because God Moved and sent down Christianity.

https://www.nairaland.com/3966218/reign-terror-story-ejigbadero-king#59134859

Whilst these were going here, lets remind you all that we all witnessed first hand the segregation of racism and slavery that was meted out on our fellow African brethren who were stolen (abducted) and sold (human trafficked) to Europe, America and co.

You all know the Martin Luther King movement, kunta kinte and co

And who caused and fought for the liberty, rights and human rights of slaves to be given to them even up to their release and ownership of property?

Answer! God again, through Christianity.

With whom did slaves get kindness from?

Answer Christians

Whilst every reasonable person appreciates that God through the Bible and Christianity saved mankind spiritual, however most people never know that God also saved humanity physically and directly.

For, us here in Africa, the physical salvation of God is most apparent as many of us would not be alive today because of our pagan traditions. Eg

1.) some of us would have would have been kidnapped and sold to a rich man somewhere, and when the man died, you will be buried alive with him to continue serving him in the grave (retainer sacrifice)

2) some of us would have ugly tear tear face and bodies (scarification)

3) some of us would have been beaten like slaves in the name of becoming growing up and being a man

3) wives could not enjoy marriage because they have scattered and burnt out the clito and bwes (genital mutilation)

4). Some boys would have been castrated because they were too fine

5) many would not be here today because they were thrown as babies into the bush (evil forest) because of deformity or that they were born of rape.

6) some would have been dead because they had to mortal Kombat somebody who was dragging the girl they wanted to marry with them.

6) some of us would have since been dead because they traveled to one place where they eat people. Or where because their king has died they need 7 strangers to bury them with him.

7) Some of us would not have been born as our fathers being slaves would have died in it since slavery was a normal and accepted

All these stopped and came to an end because God Moved and sent down Christianity to save us.

And that is why we, here today enjoy and have enjoyed many freedoms and rights which our fore fore fathers could not even dream of

Of which, our own is still better than the white man for in addition to all these, the whites had more wickedness and evil to deal with, which today is kind of no more, because God Moved and sent down Christianity.

So, how can anyone say that there is no God and or that He has not done anything to save mankind, when they are right here enjoying the very salvation God had already given them even before they were born?

Roycemadeit:
it's obvious that you lack comprehension. If God is father and has a child, a son isn't that gender-based? If I said I pray to God and she answered me would you not think I'm a pagan... Una reasoning na noodles seasoning

Is gender not the class and material used to create you like plastic is to your mannequin? Yes!

So, because you have been gendered, so God too is gendered? Yet, if your mannequin says you are plasticd and rubberd it is true, abi.

Wo unto him that calls bad good and good bad. Some of us who have traveled actually know what a good country is. If you think being the global capital of poverty makes you a good country, then you can't be helped.

I want the country to get better, so the first thing to do is to admit we are in a very bad shape. How can you improve if you keep boasting and lying to yourself?

We are nearly saying the same thing. If you traveled as you say then you would know that many places are worse than Nigeria.

And where you hope it would get better, i say, it would never be better and i have been saying this sin 2019. (You can mark my words and quote me.) But, i say again, it will never ever be better. Only worse and worse..

So, if you say this is worse, then what will you call next 2 years?

All the same, i would be fine

Both the bus driver and Lexus driver are at fault. But I will blame the Lexus driver more because he saw the event unfold while the bus driver did not. The Lexus driver should have slowed down at that area and started sounding his horn.

Because the speed limit is 100kph doesn't mean you should do 100kph. Many people don't know talk less of follow the highway code. Especially commercial bus drivers.

Claiming right of way on the highway have taken many to meet thier creator. When you see a mad man approaching you avoid him for your own sanity.

You are very correct but you see when traveling it is right of way that rules, if not this same thing and worse will happen and this time and then the guy would be at fault. And my annoyance is that the guy was not even speeding yet...
