Karrma:
Everybody knows cancer is worse than HIV.

But the stigma and discrimination that comes with it is out of this world. Taking drugs at specific time everyday of my life life is something i never imagined. Me wey hate drugs pass anything.

Is the anti rectoviral drugs totally free at hospitals? Cause I wonder how a poor man with HIV will have the money to buy the drugs for life? it's a critical situation.

Karrma:
You might be correct on things we are capable of holding in.
You know, i used to call those who commit suicide fools and cowards not until 2 weeks ago when i found myself in their shoes and saw life from a depressed angle.

Some are still there, the rashes are increasing.

The first result is convincing enough with the symptoms though.

If you are sure your girlfriend is HIV positive, she ought to be sick too and compulsorily tested by doctor in the hospital just like you? Is she not having the symptoms of HIV?

Hello Fam,

I need candid advice from everyone.

My wife has been a stay at home for over six years now and she is not happy about it.

We have been brainstorming on what to do.

My mother thinks she is lazy but I know that is not true.

Even her mother has been putting pressure on me to establish her(my wife).

I am determined to see her productive this year. But the days are counting very fast.

She lost her job just after our wedding and since then she has not been able to land another one.

I really don't want to bore you guys with the many travails(emotional and financial) we have gone through trying to secure a job for her.

She when paid employment was not forthcoming, she went into selling foodstuff and frozen food business.

She was happy doing the business but patronage was slow and she was not good with prices so she made loses and we decided to close the shop because I kept giving her additional finance to keep the business afloat.

She has MSc in Social Works.

Please kindly help advice on job/business idea for a stay at home mum.

Please, she cannot do any MLM stuff because of nature.

Thank you all.

Waiting patiently for your counsels.

Get a good real estate agent to find a shop in a good location for your wife and patronage won't be a problem again.

Goddys:
I am a lawyer like you. Lawyers are trained to be cerebral and dispassionate when considering issues like this.

Don't come back here to lament when she infects you with HIV.

By the time you join us in actual practice as a new wig, you would know the babe isn't for you. You can't be able to marry the babe with what you will earn in the next 4 years of practice and you think she can wait?

There's always an exception though

Are new lawyers not paid above 100,000 Naira as starting salary?

Karrma:
If there's no cure, how am i supposed to get over it.
I've disappointed my family. I can't get a job with this.

How old is your girlfriend? How many times did you have raw sex with her? Did she stop you from using condom with her?

IncognitoJUH:
Thanks for the words but I don't want to gamble again I just want to pay up my debt and start on a clean sheet, am just soliciting for help no matter how small

You are too stubborn. I pray nobody render any financial help to you on this forum. You are not taking people's advice to quit sports betting and tell your parents about it. You keep emphasizing you have debts you incurred from sport gambling and nairalanders should pay up. What insolence? Are you a scammer? Why should hardworking Nigerians assist you with their hard earned money to clear your debt from bet9ja? Did they know you from Adams? If you have debt to clear, go and look for a job. I am sure you will understand how hard it is to earn an income before going to the betting shop again. I am really irritated by your comments on this thread.

iHart:
I am very sure that the star delta starter could have worked if it was the electric motor that was 7kw or 9kw. Since it is the heater, I can't really tell. I don't have much experience with large heaters like yours. And moreover, I hope you know you can't put on the two machines at the same time. ...but at least it should power one. Are you sure the installation was done well? Do you have "NEPA"? Can it power the shrink wrapper and mixer?

One thing about people who sell generator is that they want to make sale and don't really care about your process and capacity. They tell you everything will work but once you pay and take delivery the story changes. Before you get another generator, please get a good electrician to calculate the total load of your factory and the size of generator that can power it. Don't rely on the generator seller for such information.

The generator I use is brand new. Its Perkins. I am not the one that purchased it. I use it on " free" lease.

I don't stay in Lagos

I appreciate your sincere response. Thanks
Yes, a full NEPA light can power every machines in my factory.

What annoys me with the stupid Generator is that it can't even power the pasteurizer/mixer alone whose power consumption is even less than the shrink tunnel machine.

iHart:
Your 12kw generator can not power the 9kw electric motor. There is what is called the starting current and then the operating current. The starting current is usually 5 to 9 times higher than the operating current. You will notice that any time you start an electric motor the light bulb in the house usually dims and after some seconds it brightens up. It is the starting current that pull the light. If you factor in the voltage and do the maths very well you will see that the starting current of your 9kw electric motor is higher than the capacity of your 12kw generator and so the generator can not be able to power it. You have two options to solve your problem, get a bigger generator or get a Star Delta starter for your machine. The star delta starter will reduce the starting current to the bearest minimum such that the 12kw generator "may" power it.

I use a 30kva generator to power my factory. In one of my machines i have a 20HP electric motor. If not for the Star Delta starter, my generator can not power the machine.

The heater will not even be a problem, that one will not be more than 1kw. And there is nothing like starting and operating current in heater. Is it a water heater?


I can build a star delta starter for you. We will test it and If it solves the problem, you can pay for it. You will only pay if and only if it solves your problem.

Thank you for your reply. I have five machines in my juice factory. My 15kva Generator can power the extractor machine ( use electric motor), automatic hydraulic press machine ( use electric motor), semi auto filling and capping machine ( use electric motor, pump and conveyor belt). The machines above were switched on and the Generator has no single problem with it.

Now my problem is the pasteurizer/mixer machine (the pasteurizer use a 7kw heater and 2hp electric motor) and the shrink packaging machine ( the shrink packaging machine use a 9kw heater and 1hp electric motor).
Now the problem is that when we switched on the pasteurizer machine alone which is just 7kw heater machine with 2hp motor, my Generator could not power it. When we also try to switch on the shrink packaging machine alone which is just 9kw heater machine and 1hp electric motor, my Generator could not power it. I was surprised because I expect a 12kw diesel generator to have the capacity to atleast power a 7kw pasteurizer machine only.

When I called my Generator supplier at alaba to challenge him that he didn't sell an original 15kva copper coil diesel generator to me. He said I was wrong that the Generator is original 15kva copper coil. That the Generator can power any machine less than 12kw in as much that it doesn't use heater system. That if I want to power my machines that use water heater, I should buy a 30kva Generator for it. And I must never switch on the pasteurizer and the shrink packaging machine that both use heater system at the same time for a 30kva Generator. That's the status of things as at today I spoke to him. But I am heading to his shop at Alaba this morning for further clarification.

With regards to your star Delta switch, will it work sir? We could try the star Delta starter if you are in Lagos to see if it will work. Because my shrink packaging machine also has a resistor too. But the Generator couldn't power it. And the factory was wired with 10mm copper wire and each circuit breaker for each machine. I am so sad as I am writing to you now. Cause I need to figure out solution on how power those two machines separately. Pasteurizer is the most important machine in juice production. And the pasteurizer work together with filling and capping machine. That is both of them must be switched on and used during hot filling process to pet bottles.

Please what is the maker of your Generator? How much did you buy it and where sir? Is it brand new or fairly used? What do you think I should do? I need suggestions.

iHart:
The supply to the factory is 25mm. The supply to the switches is between 4mm to 10mm depending on the capacities of what the switch controls. From the switches to the electric motors, heaters and pump are between 6mm and 4mm depending on the size of the motor or capacity of the heater. The biggest size of motor i have is 20HP, and the smallest is 2HP. Except for the 20HP which I used 6mm, the rest are 4mm.

Bro, can 12kw diesel generator power a 9kw machine that use heater element? I noticed my 12kw diesel generator can't power it. I am wondering if the kW of the alternator of my Generator is actually 12kw or not.

Please which kva Generator do you use to power any of your machine that use heater element?

Please I want to ask those that are into diesel generator. Can a 12kw copper coil diesel generator power a 9kw Machine without the Generator getting spoil on time? I need to know please.

If it can't, what do you think I can do to make it possible to power a 9kw machine. Cause I don't have money to buy a higher capacity diesel generator for now.

Moderator, please help me to push it to front-page. I need answers. It is crucial for my factory. Thanks

Bossjakande:
pains in my heart and feeling sad.

See what bobobooge has caused to jakandeola's heart now. Sisisioge is yours and I am on your side.

sisisioge:
Chai! You spoilt it where you insinuated that you have financial challenge . 43 is a good number. That's plenty older as required.

I swear it, for the sanity of the marriage institution and yours, you can't afford to be financially dependent. That's sisi telling you the truth hardcore .

Why can't you ladies take a look at his potential? He is a Master degree holder, educated and honest about his financial status than the wannabes. In as much as the OP is not lazy and unambitious, a good woman should marry him and grow with him. It's a matter of time, money will come.

Sakir:
Yes she told me she was positive after 4 months of dating, and she contacted it from her close friend's daughter, the baby is one year old, her mom is always busy at work so she help her to babysit her baby, some few months later she travel and left the baby with her mom. She later hear that the baby is dead due to HIV, she rushed to the hospital immediately for text and she realized that she has contacted it already.
That's what she told me.

I don't believe her story. Was she sharing a sharp object with the said baby or what? Is the mother of the said baby HIV positive? Even if the mother of the said baby is HIV positive, she would have been enlightened during maternity on how to give birth to a baby without passing the virus.

@OP my guess is that your girlfriend is already HIV positive before the dating. Ladies with HIV are more mean than men with HIV. They don't care to infect others. That was how a very fine chick I was dating during university days wanted to infect me with HIV. She insisted on sex without condom when she visited me but I resisted it. She angrily left my room. No qualms.

Few weeks later, my friend who was a medical student then called me on phone that she saw my ex girlfriend at the OAU teaching hospital collecting anti rectoviral drugs. I approached my ex girlfriend on campus about the HIV allegations and the truth was revealed that she is HIV positive. But the idiot wanted to ruin my life by infecting me with the virus through unprotected sex.

This incident happened a decade ago. Till date, I still thank God for taking the decision to resist unprotected sex with her. The decision was bold because she was a very beautiful girl. No unprotected sex till marriage. I trust no one.

Sakir:
After 4 months of dating my fiancee, she told me that she wants to make a confession and this is where she will know if I truly love her, she made a confession weeping to me that she is HIV positive, I was shocked and I replied her instantly that why didn't you tell me since, we have been having sex without condoms for the past few months, she said I have no problem that she is on medication that no one can contact the virus from her through sex except she stopped taking the medicine, I didn't believe her so she took me to a hospital for HIV test and the results show that I'm negative, I still can't believe her because she might bribe the hospital, I went to 2 different hospitals out of her knowledge, and I realized that I'm negative, we continue having sex without condoms till I decided to visit a doctor for advice, the doctor said I can marry her and still have kids without me and our kids contacting the virus, but he said I must not have sex with her without condoms and when I'm ready to have child with her I should come for advice.
I explained everything to my fiancee but she never want to sex with condoms, she complains she doesn't like it, I tried to let her understand but she didn't agree, we keep on having sex without condoms, we have been dating for two years now but I'm still scared of contacting that deadly disease, my biggest fear is my family must not hear about it, they all love her but I'm sure they will never allow me to marry her if they knew she is HIV positive.
Please advise me everyone, should I marry her or I should quit now, because I don't want the situation where I will contact the virus and we will still break up later, I may commit suicide.

Did she tell you she is HIV positive before you started dating two years ago? Did she also explain to you how she contacted HIV? Ask her these valid questions for an answer.

Florblu:
You mean this is all you could say from what the young woman said ?


Pray for your sisters

The ends justifies the mean. The reality is that OP is a single mother. Hence, her options is limited. It's only unmarried men with low self-esteem that will prefer single mothers above single ladies.

Florblu:
You're the only stupid fellow here.
If some men have chosen to be with a single mother to nurture the child together, how has that effect your living and thinking?

You shouldn't have typed the first paragraph as your second paragraph makes more sense than the first.

Love always

Why are you insulting @boss13? The fact is single mother should marry single father/divorcee. How many unmarried men want to train another man's child? Men are logical and less emotional like women. Op was foolish to open her legs to an irresponsible father who impregnated her and ran away but you want an unmarried man to take care of another man's child abi. Well done.

That serves Amosun right. Any governor that disregard the welfare of Nigerian workers should be disgraced.

bobobooge:
Hehehe.

Your not serious at aaaaaall.

Hey, why do you want to steal sisisioge from jakandeola? Double cross is not allowed.

As an entrepreneur who wants to start orange juice manufacturing company in Nigeria. I have been pondering on which is more important to choose between nearness to Market (e.g Lagos) and nearness to Raw materials ( Benue state) when siting the orange juice factory for production.

This Amosun behaves like a thug himself. Why will a governor allow his political issues with APC to affect the innocent traders? Selfish governor

I really appreciate your reply. Finally, how much did the electrical wiring of your factory costs in total? Including the cost of copper wire, switches in total. I want to have an idea of the cost when negotiating with an electrician. Thanks

iHart:
your location.

Please can you give me the specification of the type of wire you used in wiring your factory? Do you think 10 mm copper wire with breakers is good enough to wire a small scale factory like yours? Help me out bro with the info. I want to wire my small scale juice factory in Ogun state.

tiana111:
After searching and searching for work in Nigeria, and at the end of the day travel to Dubai in search of work.
When some people tell me that theres nothing much over there , I though it was a lie that maybe they don't want me to progress, now I have seen it with my eyes.
Many nigerians are troping in here day by day to come n work but the job isn't available.
Most agents don't even have work, they just lie to collect the little money people have for them to also survive.
So much racism on blacks here.only Indian, Philippinos , Pakistan,Sri Lanka are preferred for work.
To top it all black girls are been raged as sex items here because that's what most of them indulge themselves into.
When u go to a walk in interview you see so many crowds looking for work.
Its not easy here and there are many Nigerian here searching day by day but nothing yet.

May God help us all.Amen

What happened to all the fine tall hotels in Dubai that I do watch on my TV in Nigeria. Are you sure they won't need workers in their hotels? You can try them.

candlewax:
No. He can't come back as soon as he leaving now. I take his property to him, o don't have to bother him taking it along

Sorry, are you above 30 years?

Osolo1:
Thanks for your response and question. My wife works as a teacher with the state government, her salary had been what the family survived on for more than a year and the billsand intermittent debt have pilled up such that we hardly could feed with what is left of her meager salary after deductions on a monthly basis.I would visit the Uber section as suggested because as we all know,one hand could never carry all the loads of a family of Six.God bless you all.

You are even lucky your wife is working with a state government. Tell your wife to take a loan on your behalf and use it to start a business. It's very easy for state workers to get bank loan except you are lying.

eventsmallchops:
I'm getting more desperate day by day, can someone just help me with a job, please I don't want to loose my family please, my wife and daughter has been far away from me for about a year now, she has stopped picking my calls, I'm also noticing change in attitude in my wife , I need a job please, no matter how desperate I am, I can not change things because I have no means, I can not go to them with another story after leaving with a promise of going to find a better future for us, she's tired , I'm also depressed I have not seen my family in a long time.

I need a good Samaritan to come to my aid please! I'm frustrated, I'm thinking of killing myself please help me. please i beg in the name of God please, I dont want to remain this way, a man that can take care of his family is worst than a infidel, HR people please help us, we are both graduates and non of us have a job and I have a little daughter please.

those who have the power should help, I'm hardworking but what do I do when I have no job , please I just want survive with my family please.


please I know this is shameful, please do not move this to frontpage

State your educational qualification and working experience as ifyalways quoted you. There are millions of graduates with no job and in more severe conditions than yours. Getting a job is a job.
