izito:
*

In 2016 she told me her salary was #50.000 And then two years later, when she got promoted, I asked about her salary and she said, “Oh these people, don’t mind them. They added only #5000 to my old salary. Because of her meager salary, I’ve taken up so many responsibilities in the house without complaint. I pay for utilities and pay for food. I pay the fees of our two kids, clothe them, and take care of their medical bills. When my wife sends me a grocery list, she adds sanitary pads. She buys dresses and clothes, comes to show them to me, and asks me to pay for them. She started talking about a car when our second child came in. Things weren’t good on my side so I asked her to give me some time. She said, “I’ve saved something. I can add it to what you have so you pay me when your money comes.”

I agreed and took that money from her, topped it up to get her a car. For three months my ears never rest. She would wake up at dawn and ask me to pay what I owed her. I got tired and paid the money when I didn’t have much in my account.

One evening, I turned my laptop on and saw a lot of emails. I checked and it was my wife’s email that had been opened. I asked her, “Did you use my laptop?” She answered, “Yeah I was checking something.” I told her, “Then you didn’t log out.” She answered, “I forgot. Please log out for me.” I was about to log out when something caught my attention. I saw a mail with the subject, “January Payslip.” I opened and started going through. When I saw her gross salary, I was shocked. #400,734? And this girl has been crying poverty?

I went through the details. That night I couldn’t sleep. I was angry. I felt let down. I felt cheated. I felt played. We’ve been married for six good years and my wife earned that much without my knowledge? How much she earned didn’t bother me a lot than what she was using that money for. I decided not to talk immediately but rather do a little bit of investigation.

All my life I’ve held the view that it wasn’t right for anyone to go through their partner’s phone. It’s an invasion of privacy and it breeds mistrust in the relationship but that night, going through her phone was the only way to find out what I was looking for. I started with her best friend. Nothing much was found. Her family had a Whatsapp group. I read the messages there. I got few hints. I went through the chat with her father and that was when I realized my wife had bought a piece of land and had started building. Her father was in charge of the project. He had sent photos of the various stages of the building. At some point, her father said, “Thank you for helping out your brother. He would have been home had it not been you.”

She has only one brother—her senior brother. I went to look for the chat between them. Her senior brother lost his job and was home doing nothing so my wife bought her Hyundai i10 to use for Uber. Every week, her brother rendered an account and they split the money. From all indications, my wife was doing well for herself while she plays poor so she could rely on my salary. Why would she do that? I thought I was being a supportive husband so my wife could be proud of the man she married. When we bought land, it was her name and my name that appeared on the land title. That car I bought for her with a loan from her bears her name. I didn’t mind. I believed what’s hers was also mine. 

The next morning she realized I wasn’t looking well. I was boiling on the inside but looking for a good opportunity to start the conversation. When I calmed down a little, I asked her, “So why would you do that to me?” She asked, “What have I done?” I answered, “You bought land, you never told me. You started building on it, you never told me. When are you going to tell me?” She was shocked. She asked, “Who told you all that?” I said, “Your father did.” She stood quiet for a while. She asked, “Why would my father tell you all that? What were you people talking about” I said, “I don’t know. You can ask him.” 

We left it there. Some minutes later she came to me with her phone: “My father wants to talk to you.” The phone was already on a loudspeaker. His father was clearly angry. He asked, almost shouting, “You said I told you my daughter has a building? Where did I say that and when?” I asked, “Is it not true that my wife has a building project going on that you’re supervising?”  He asked me, “I told you that?” I asked, “Is it true or not?” After the back and forth I told them, “I read your messages last night. I saw the pictures. I read the various budget you had sent to my wife. I read the confirmation of the money receipts that you sent her. You’re a man. Would you be happy if your wife does this to you?” He started fumbling. He started apologizing saying he thought I was aware.”


My wife stood there motionless, didn’t know what to say. When her father hung up, I told her everything I knew, from her salary to the car she bought for her brother. I said, “Yet, even your sanitary pad, I buy them. You think I’m a fool? You’ll use your money to acquire your own properties and live on mine because you’re my wife? I hear. We’ll see.”

Trust was lost. Love was broken. We had to find a new way of living our lives going forward. Her father called me every morning and evening apologizing for everything and sometimes taking up the blame so I didn’t have to blame his daughter. I told him, “The emotional state I’m in right now, it would be hard to think straight or think forgiveness. Just give me space.” Three days later, they were in our house. The father, the mother, and the senior brother. They came to apologize. “Don’t let this break up the beautiful marriage you both have. If nothing at all, consider the kids and be lenient in your judgment.”

I listened to them. My position was still the same. “I need time to clear my mind. Just leave me alone to think.” From last month to this moment that I’m writing this, my wife had changed totally. She doesn’t ask for money but the house is being run smoothly. She has started paying for things she never paid for but that doesn’t move me. She has taught me a very great lesson and I’m taking it seriously. That in everything, I have to look out for myself and my family first. Last she told me, “If you want us to change the names on those properties, we can do so.” Guess whose name is on the property…her father’s name.”

I told her, “You don’t need to change anything. They are yours. You suffered for them so you can decide what you want to do with them.” The land I bought has our names. I’m selling it and take my money back. The car she’s driving has her name. I put a for-sale sticker on it some weeks ago. She agreed she’ll pay for the car. I’ve given her two months to pay up or I sell it and take my money. She’s getting the message and I’m glad. Each one for himself, God for us all. She keeps asking if I’m going to leave her. I keep telling her I won’t but if she wants a divorce, I will gladly give her. I’m not going to leave the marriage. I would give us some time to heal and see what may happen but when it comes to money, I’ve taken the lesson she taught me through her actions.

Draslo:
Damn. Baba don cast!!


People do this stupid shi a lot as I've come to discover. In 2019 before the pandemic, around November/December, can't remember exactly. I went to a bar around Ikeja and it was just past noon. I really needed a cold Stout because the heat then was just ridiculous to describe. Soon as I got in, I saw a man. He was all alone I guess cause of the time frame. I could tell he was drunk af. He had a leather briefcase on his thighs. I asked the waitress to bring my drink and peanuts. I mostly ignored him, pressing my phone. Next thing I heard was "Oga come dey go abeg e don do. For the past two hours you go just bring your prick out dey spit on top am dey rub am. You think say e dey freak me? I get enough dick for my side." As I looked at him, he was struggling to return his erect penis into his trousers. I was pained that there were only the three of us at the bar. As he made to leave, I said to myself, "I must treat this guy's fuckup." Naso the guy reach near me, I give am just one slap. No be your regular type of slap o. I dey talk about the one that your entire palm will cover the front of the face. My guy fall yakata. As he made to stand up, he rushed me. Naso we begin rack. The waitress went to get the manager and other staff. By the time they got there, Naso one rudeboy ask "How much he don spend here?" The girl replied "Only one Heineken o....since morning" The guy replied "Since that time?" Naso my guy start to collect part 2. Others joined and I did too. He was disgraced out of the lounge/bar.

Omo some people dey ment


Modified
Okay maybe I was a little out of line but he deserved it. The guy had to be 10-15 years older than me. I was more ashamed than angry so no be anger management issues I get. Did I mention the manager asked that I be served an extra two bottles for free? I gave it out though to the rudeboy cool

Romance / Re: My Fiancee Likes Giving Out Her Number To Men, What Should I Do? by ekerintee: 10:59pm On Mar 10, 2021
Make yourself valuable .If you are valuable to her ,even the mere fact of losing you when she misbehave will Put her in her right place .So i think ,you need Work on your values,being valuable is Not only about money.if you have traits Other men dont have ,then she cant afford to Joke with you ,If you have Money also,and some Things which some Other men dont have lol







quote author=Alexgman1 post=99753000]My so called fiancee is fond of giving out her number without stress or restrain to any man who ask from her. I noticed this anonying and dis-respectful habit since last year December.

Different people (male) will call her anytime and mostly late in the evening or midnight and she would still pick their calls in my presence, talk softly, smile and even laugh out loud at their jokes and sweet words.

She has given out her contact to guys on facebook, on the streets, in the vehicle, eatery, church, place of work, market, you name it and they disturb her every now and then because of her extreme fairness, beauty, elegance, prettiness and sexy shape. I have endured and tolerated so much for long and am loosing my patience and value for her. All that comes out of her is; "Am i jealous?"

Pls what should i do?

Warn her seriously?

Quit the relationship? Or

Continue to observe and keep quiet? [/quote]

StacyO:
Please read through.

I'm actually in my early twenties, not that I'm too old for marriage anyway. One of my top clients who I'm trying to polish out a business with, went ahead to arrange a mini impromptu by fire by force relationship for me and his brother.

Like bethrothing someone to someone else without their full consent.

It was a men's arrangement cause, I was surprised how they all came to that agreement.

I tried breaking up with him the first time and he told his brothers about it. Guilt almost finished me cause, I was blamed for the excuse I brought up. His uncle who is in charge of the contract brought us back together again.

The main issue now is that I want to break up with the guy once and for all but, I don't want to hurt him and I still have to save the contract at hand.

The guy is very much attached to me already and I won't fake it, I'm equally beginning to feel butterflies in my stomach.

I want to go about it in a very simple way. So that at the end, we all go our separate ways happy.

Any idea is highly welcomed. Serious and mature minds please.

Thank you.


Modified:: I told him my own part of the story and my reasons of not wanting to be in a relationship with him.
I'm not ready for any relationship now and I dont like him. Most importantly, I dont want to chop his money while deceiving him.

He is still not accepting reality but, I'm sure with time, he'll move on.

PS: His uncle isn't aware of this yet and I begged him not to tell anyone.

Iamafinegirl:
Did you tell them that when we are talking
“You are not serious is a big INSULT for you”
Did u tell then that when u say I like trump and I say “me I hater trump because of this and that” it is already an offense and you admitted to you having issues with me airing opinions because you are boss or what I don’t know?
Did you tell them a simple conversation or difference in opinion even on a gist is an insult to you?

Did you tell them I think of quality and wen a frying pan was needed I was saying the new expensive ones sef are not good, they burn. Second new is better in this case and we got a second new one? Because it’s not necessarily about cost but most times you won’t even be able to understand the depth of what I suggest sometimes.

Did you tell them I explained something one day that I paid money to so and so person to avoid a problem and you tried to give me another solution to have taken and I was like “me I don’t want wahala oo thats why I did what I did@ and because everything is fight and arguement for you you had stood up stormed out of the house because you felt i said I don’t want your wahala etc when all I was saying is that I didn’t want wahala if d issue boomeranged and so I didn’t even look for other means I just did d surest method in question” did u settle down to listen or because you never patient and always ready to call everything an argument or fight you had kickstarted your nature?

Did you tell them you wanted a car and I said this car is too expensive tell someone who we know imports to bring for you although the person could delay and may change the car you agreed on but I said do a written agreement with him so it would be cheaper for you and that way he won’t do anything funny ? And you would spend less and get a better grade or level like the one I got instead of paying for something lower at the same price as the one you paid for in town. Out of love, did you not turn it to fight and say I am wicked, and louded the issue and dramatised it as being evil.
Did you tell them you lied to me that you don’t drink or smoke?
But you drink and lied from foundation of a relationship to win a girl?
When I realised out of anger I said you lied to me you don’t drink but you are a drunkard.
Did your remember saying my father who doesn’t drink at all and you know fully is the drunkard
You have called me demonic woman
You have called me stupid woman
You have called me very stupid woman
The list is endless but if we discussing and you don’t understand what I am saying and I am frustrated talking and I say “you no dey understand English” you just flare up that that is a big insult.
Things that aren’t insults you made them insults to defend yourself.
Did you tell them the most times we went to Shoprite then I use to be the one buying things...and you usually pick nothing. So why should Shoprite be so expensive if I buy water “nestle water” and other things from there even before we ever dated and you used to follow me there to win me and I never asked you to pay for me or use you as a toaster?

Did you tell them that you are building and I am also building? And the months you spent all your salary not even on the building alone oo. Busy dashing people and at 3rd of the month you were broke and I was like how would we handle the house you said I am there and I held those months because that’s what a good woman would do.

Did you tell dem that wen you arrived at the counsellor we told them we had a 60k and 40k rule as at then but we just weren’t piling it in the same account and the pastor said ok we should do it as a joint account so no one would feel he is bringing all the money” and we stop spending differently. you told them it’s the pastor who proposed it or he told us that ok you people should just put the money in a seperate account and the wife asked what else is making you angry and you said contributions for repair should be added”.

Did you tell them that when your drivers license expired and there was a delay with joint account , you said you would keep some part of the contribution for where you stay but I must submit all my own contribution to your younger sisters account while you submit just some to her because you don’t trust me with money. The younger sister would now be the one dishing out the feeding money to me who is the one working? While you comfortably keep part of your contribution as a boss. Did you tell them I said you should give her all if i would also have to submit my own all to her since she is the chosen financial manager of our own institution so she can be dishing out money to both of us as at when due since distance is not a barrier to bank transfer so I would also monitor u because you don’t trust me with money and you want to monitor what I am eating when u aren’t even there with me.

Did you tell them you don’t live according to your means and you always borrowing and financing a lifestyle heavier than you inclusive of feeding (because you eat 70-80%) of all the food in the house? Did you tell them you have collected above 14 million naira loan and you haven’t completed any house you are building aside still having normal money people have used to complete their own houses.

Did you tell them you give them babes money and say send me your account number Cus I have seen it but to buy Apple extra for me out of a budget as per my love this one na for u from my pocket? Did you tell then as we came back from your location you had meeting with your babe asking if hostel has resumed and all by 6pm same day?

Did u tell them that I had been using clin-cap face cream, benzoxide peroxide face cream, and you have been using it with me and I have never said this cream is 2000 and the other is 1000 let’s contribute from budget but you bought olaybact for me 400 naira and you were balancing account for me?

Did you tell them I did a soap mix of 13000 naira to 15,000 naira and you have been lovingly using it With me since January and I have never in my life said your contribution for soap but you won’t even do it, if you did sef you would have been asking for money by now.

Did you tell them that even to buy apple while taking me to were you lived loveingly as per this is my new location has to be from the budget and that you couldn’t say babes aside this budget this for you?
Did you tell them I also contributed for the fuel as you were taking me lovingly to your new location? Location you dey go dey come yourself but as I go follow u go know d place I must pay for transport. I for kukuma just enter public transport. But I don’t even have a problem with that since that’s what he wanted. We just accounted for my path

Did you tell them...that I am not wasteful and you went ahead to do things you wanted to do and started blaming me for it. Like buying a new tv when your mum was around for them...knowing fully well I hardly look at a television and you did it for you and yours?
Did you tell them this girl who doesn’t contribute lovingly gives your sis money and also give your mum at least in the best way I can afford within my means but you no send me message so that’s my business you are not even seeing it. Na me send myself?
When last did you buy me a gift in a year and half? It was a wig when you were still trying to toast me. That was only when you were trying to win my heart.
Did you tell them you don’t do anything for me I don’t ask you for money for cloth, hair etc or my own fuel as I am a responsible adult and not a burden on a man which you know yourself. Did you let them know that the food you eat 70% of and the house repair you would do definitely if I am there or not is what you would always come and stand on my head for when we weren’t yet contributing in a joint account. Did you tell them you don’t take care of me and you are just so self centered about the feeding part because you eat more of the food? Yet I was still buying food oo no be say I go out and don’t bring anything to the house. I still buy meat, tomatoes, onion etc but maybe not just up to the person who consumes the 80%

Did u tell them d day you took me out and water was bought which was like two years ago was a special day I think maybe Valentine or my birthday or something and “I was only asking to be treated special”. As per today na correct day, spoil me na.
Did you tell them that I spoke of u buying some thing like blender or electronic because you need quality one to last. The cheap juicer bought did it last? No
Was there not finally a decision where the expensive “binatone” blender was picked because for some things, quality is important so it lasts?
Did you tell them I met condoms in your other room and you alleged it’s your boss that came to your house to use it? Because you couldn’t tell him no?
Did you tell them that if I want to do something you would use my car and if you want to do something you would use my car and I said love should cover all this there should be no differentiating of car for activities and you can use mine when you want and viceversal?

The day he said I said drug was too expensive did he tell you he spent all his income that month already by 3rd or so due to poor planning and I used my income all for the month for food. Ofcourse I am sure he borrowed as usual for fuel for his car that month and maybe some extra things like suya etc you may want to eat and that’s why I couldn’t afford to buy that cream or is it even tablet I desperately needed quality type of drug to treat that ailment because it use to be stubborn when it comes but couldn’t afford it that month ?

In addition I forgot. The generator I would tell you to put on when wet had a generator house while some or most Nigerians just make a metal cover or so for their generator. So rain fell and the splash I could look wasn’t much and I would say it’s not like water entered this thing in its house like Dt just few splash on surface. I owned a generator I ran without it having issue before meeting you and while you where toasting me. I didn’t know I am unqualified to run a gen. I stopped touching your gen because it was complain upon complain or I am arguing with you by having a different opinion about ah it’s small splashes. Ofcourse if a gen was drenched would I with my full senses say lets put it on? When Nigerians keep their gen outside with normal cover.

You would go out and meet the true definition of a Nigerian woman. Take care of her is what a man does, send her money for hair, dress, clothes etc.
And still buy food n do stuff.
You would remember I was never a burden on u
I hope you would have love enough for her to cover taking care of her abi u would start complaining and shouting on her too. I just hope you don’t faint then.

On the other hand I Wld meet the true definition of Nigerian man who knows he is to care. Simple

All that while shielding them from the reallity of the Nigerian way of life, making them smart gullible dumbasses as soon as the step out my door and most importantly from under my wings........

No thank you, africa way it is. Afterall I did not turn out too bad

The african weather is still the best ,u can stayoutside during Heat,but try to stay outside in a - 20 degrees cold and Tell me If you wont die.

Bro, heat better pass cold. Lemme tell you if Whites were to switch geographical locations with Africans, you will see that nothing beats a tropical weather climate. Summer still is the best of all the seasons. Sadly. Africans are just too useless to develop Africa.

You See the Trend nowadays are single parents,Most of this Kids from single parents are Not being taught Well at Home .appplogies to the good single Parent .i must say there are some single mothers WHO train their Kids Well ,however some dont have time for this Kids .so in conclusion,Not the Location Matters but the Parent or whoever is Training the child .A badly trainned child in Nigeria is almost Same AS a badly trainned child in Europe .however ,some children ,No Matter how hard you train them,they May still Chose to Go Bad,that one is beyond your Power ,but God and everyone knows you did your best








adexpa:
I don't think it is necessary to return a child back to Africa before getting the best out of them. We have well mannered guys raised in the West today, the major work lies with the parents; parents needs to be there to guide and groom them.....it takes a well mannered/trained/educated parents to raise a well mannered child, many parents do not have enough information/education to raise good child.
One can only bring him/her home occasionally to see how things are being done. Going through hardship is not necessary a ticket to a good child. Many great America leaders were raised there and they turned out great.

I See some Young Kids Here,Smoking and doing Weed AS early AS 12.Children of nowadays are inquisitive ,u need to give them Close marking .When Parent are too busy and leave their responsibility to teachers,then whatever the teacher teach them ,its what they become .If their teacher teach them ,there is No God ,and you dont Tell them about God ,then they believe there is No God. If their teacher believe that everyone can decide to be Gays and homo and you dont Tell them its against Our culture ,then dont be suprise If they Turn Out gay.thanks for your contribution,i think behaviour of Kids raise differ from country to country.some Kids in Europe dont have opportunities like in canada or America ,some of them are discrimanated in school ,some are told in school they cant make be useful because they are black .If you are too busy to coreect this wrong Things they Tell them,then the child is affected negatively.God bless u

I Said If you are a busy Parent WHO dont have time to raise Kids ,naija is best option.its Not about Location ,its about Parent having time to train their Kids at Home .These Kids are taught good and Bad Things at school.you need to have time to Tell them what is right .its Not about being violent to Kids at Home .when your child get badly influenced at school and you try to coreect him at Home .They are told to call Police If their Parent shout on them ,am Not talking of Beratung,when your child says He want to do Things His own Way and you cant Tell him No,Check those Kids that are born abroad ,raise abroad ,their parents Had time for them .whether White or black or naija or abroad,when you dont have time for your Kids ,they Turnout Bad to the society.if you dont raise your Kids Well in naija ,they Turn Out rascals,Same AS in abroad






slachtoffers:


Again and again it has been proven that violence does the opposite in raising a child.

If a parents is not abusive and are firm with their kids I don't see the need for the child to call police.

That aside you said African kids are smarter than western children.

The world tech today are controlled by invention created by kids from the west- Facebook, WhatsApp, reddit etc can you tell us what African children within the same cohort has created for the world?

Fear and the way we raise kids in Africa kills creativity. I think raising a child should be engaging and they need to allow to explore their creative sides at a very young age.

I stay in Europe and will Tell you that , a child born in Nigeria is smarter than a child born abroad at the Initial Stage of Life .maybe along the Line ,its Reverse .Most africa Parent especially Nigerians are busy running after Money and dont teach their Kids value ,this Kids tend to follow the Western Kids ,badly influenced .This Kids can call Police for their Patents ,they are spoilt Brat.For busy Parent,the best place to train a child is africa .but Parent WHO have time ,abroad May be Beter .This Kids are taught Western culture in school,they are told they have right to call Police ,you cant shout on them when they are wrong ,they Report you to the authorities.unless a Parent WHO have time to train this Kids .They are bound to be Bad Kids,the Life abroad is hard for Most african Parent who are struggling to survive .You Guys May Not Unserstand how busy some people are working 12 hours or more in a day,going Back Home tired .so Tell me how this Kids wont be Bad .in Nigeria ,any Body can coreect or Help u train a child ,but abroad ,No one .so that is my View








etrange:
I've had this argument several times. Our pride is all we've got going for us as Africans but we should know when to draw the line. You want to send a child to Africa at his formative age knowing fully well that that's exactly when he needs to be enjoying all the western world has to offer? Foundations are laid in secondary schools, don't let your child miss out on that. Americans are known for inventions while Nigerians are known for scamming. Stereotyping is wrong cause we have both good and bad people everywhere but think about it, are kids really better of in a country like this? I don't think. I think a kid that will be good will be good regardless of where he's raised.

Those WHO lost people Düring the lekki Shooting shud Go to the Panel so that they can be compensated,Nobody is showing Up.is the government suppose to compensate Ghost WHO have No Relations.i think people shud allow the government to rebuild the Staates .If there are people who died at lekki,let these endsar Organizer present their names and let government compensate their Families.and let people give Peace a Chance .And let people Vote rightly in next election








babaolofin:


EndSARS protesters at Lekki are just looking for trouble. They should allow Lagos to be rebuilt. The EndSARS protesters may eventually clash with those in support of the rebuilding of Lagos. Some of them may not live to tell the story.

If those in support of the Tollgates should bring their groups to demonstrate in support of the Toll gate, there would be serious clash and there would be very serious and fatal casualties on the side of EndSARS protesters, they will say it is the government that sponsor hoodlums to wound and kill them.

You cannot stop LCC from the maintenance and construction of roads in that axis .You cannot stop the advert placement on the digital advert platform on that Tollgate . The maintenance of that road cannot be transferred to the government. We are all witnesses to the clean and well maintained road and continual construction works being undertaken by LCC at Lekki. The roads are getting bad and population is increasing.

If you are fighting Tinubu or APC you should not destroy Lagos. Those buses burnt are yet to be replaced. People rush in thousands daily at Oshodi, Obalende and Berger to board those buses, if Ambode had not imported many buses, the bus services would have collapsed and the people would be suffering.

You can go to Abuja, Adamawa and Anambra to disrupt developmental projects but allow Lagos to recover . We shall rebuild Lagos.

Meanwhile, the deadline of the ESN expired yesterday, we have not heard anything from the South East. What is the situation like ? Are they waiting for crisis at Lekki Tollgate and Oyo State before their actions ?

The Intelligence Agencies should do a thorough investigation of these crisis. It is not by accident that February 13 was chosen and events actually happened. If Lagos Developmental groups had clashed with EndSARS protesters yesterday, EndSARS protesters would have lost a lot of people, but they decided to withdraw because EndSARS protesters will say it is the government that sponsored them. They actually planned crisis for Lagos and Ibadan yesterday. The police in Lagos stopped the crisis at Lagos before it happens.

I think IT IS Not wrong If the Guy bids for a Project and wins IT on a fair ground .its only wrong when people are awarded contract unfairly.so what people shud be Investigating is was He given the contract unjustly,where there Other people who bidded for the Project and why was His company awarded the contracts.people can Go to court to Challenge the Lagos government for awarding the contract to him.why shud people be making so much noise without investigation.The Process of awarding those contract need to be Investigated.our nigerian lawyers are so lazy to do their Work .Most of the people making noise also Lobby for Projects ,so i See IT AS a Common Thing Not only in Nigeria but a Common Business practice.it is only wrong when people are awarded contract unfairly,If He bidded lawfully for the contract and won IT lawfully,people shud Not be making noise .If you Like curse me,May God punish your Generation first.




Vaughanlanrewaj:


After the political protest failed to kill LCC , it is now the turn of Loatsad. Just because of 2023 presidential elections.

It is now I know there is a reason that Lekki toll gate was chosen. It was all planned and orchestrated to bring in Tinubu.

Never again will people who are not stakeholders in Lagos be allowed to burn down Lagos.

It is all a ploy for the 2023 presidency.

That our city was not burnt today because we defended our city is what is important.

I suspect you are talking about mostly Eastern European countries and post-soviet countries, such as Georgia, Ukraine , Armenia e.t.c

But this wasn't the point and I never argued that anyway. Besides, no Well-informed Nigerian will make such an ill-thought out decision of migrating to a poor European country as its a dead end.

Limassol:
In

No,it changes. Its called "fact" and facts don't care about ones opinions. Just to reinforce my position. Here are some fact pointing towards a bleak future for Nigeria.

•According to the UN about 83 million Nigerians live on less than a $ a day.
•Boko haram is currently the second most deadliest terrorist group after IS.
• According to the NBS, Nigeria unemployment stands at around 23%.
• the recent corruption perception index by TI ranks Nigeria 149 globally and second in west Africa.

I could go on on.

These are facts - which don't care about your opinion anyway.

And i am not generalising here. For one I never said all Nigerians are poor. It has never being the case in any country not even in the poorest country in the world - Niger, the elites are balling and rolling in $$, but it still doesn't negate the fact the masses are poor and living in abject poverty, aside other tough realities.
