They do my sister,women of now majorly consider how financial buoyant a guy his...his buoyancy determine their seriousness
I don't agree with your statement because I have even flirt with thousands of babes without spending a kobo and the thing is usually going well. I I have discovered that women are generally moved by your tactics in handling them because I usually flirt with babes, in a crowd and once the babe feels that you know what you are doing, I she shall play along and using that format I can go as many rounds I want with different people even availing me the opportunity to choose my spec.

More Images from the 2025 Eyo Festival[/i]
[i]By The Sojourner


The Sojourner, a visual storytelling brand by Chris Daramola, is dedicated to documenting truth, culture, and everyday life through photography. Each frame captures human experiences, vibrant cultures, and the hidden beauty of everyday moments—from intimate portraits to lively street scenes and cultural festivals. Through this work, we preserve stories that might otherwise go untold, sharing the rhythm, color, and spirit of life. Guided by a belief in the power of photography to inspire and connect, The Sojourner brings audiences closer to the people, traditions, and moments that make our world remarkable.

Frame 2: A young Eyo masquerade jumps during the 2025 Eyo Festival in Lagos, Nigeria
Frame 3: An Eyo masquerade blesses a spectator during the 2025 Eyo Festival in Lagos, Nigeria
Frame 4: Three young Eyo masquerades display their traditional costumes at the 2025 Eyo Festival in Lagos, Nigeria



Beyond the Eyo Festival, I’ll be sharing images from other cultural events I captured in 2025, including the Ojude-Oba Festival in Ogun State, the Osogbo Festival in Osun State, and the Olojo Festival at the Ooni of Ife Palace in Ile-Ife, Osun State. I also explored Nigeria’s rich history and heritage at sites like Erin Ijesha Waterfall, Freedom Park in Lagos, Point of No Return and Gberefu Island, the Badagry Slave Museum, and other slave relic museums in Badagry.[i][/i]

Oh, and I almost forgot—I’ll also be sharing my challenging (and slightly awful) experience trying to get to Benin Republic to document the Vodon Days (Voodoo Festival), which took place from January 6–10, 2026.

Each image captures stories of culture, resilience, and tradition—moments that deserve to be seen, remembered, and celebrated. Stay tuned for more!
You should be glad that they didn't steal your handset there.

Fashion › Re: Why Do Poor Men Dress Too Much by Emeka71(m): 7:20pm On Jan 14
Arkmanbuddy:
It is the need to impress, the need to show that one is doing well. The rich don't have anything to prove to anybody, their assets speak for them.

Moreover, the rich would rather spend to buy more income-generating assets than liabilities. The reverse is the case for the poor and middle class.
And that is the major reason why they are poor, because they love to spend a lot.

Nairaland General › Re: Have You Ever Fought For Your Life? by Emeka71(m): 12:43pm On Jan 09
Samantha125:
Mine happened when I was ten years old, I fell sick and got admitted in hospital... My condition at the time was stable, but kept deteriorating over time, I had to be transferred to another hospital outside of my province... I stayed there for about two weeks before my first surgery and my parents would sometimes have to go back home as they had other priorities back home, my brother was the one who'd normally come and see me during afternoon visiting hours since he was schooling in the same province I was transferred to and his school wasn't that far from the hospital.

A day for my surgery came and things seemed promising after the procedure, even though I was still on oxygen, things seemed to be headed to the right direction... My parents were by my side for a couple of days and the doctor finally decided to get me off the oxygen since my condition had seemed to have improved... My parents then had to go back home in Limpopo and I remember within a couple of hours after their departure, I started experiencing this heavy feeling within my chest like it was compressed altogether, I complained to one nurse about how I was finding it difficult to breathe properly, she alerted the doctor and they put me back on oxygen while they monitored me through the night.

My doctor came back early in the morning to check up on me before he left and it wasn't until I had my breakfast that my condition turned for the worst, I started hyperventilating to a point that even the oxygen wasn't helping anymore, when I attempted to speak, my voice couldn't come out, I felt myself struggling to exhale by the minute... I was immediately attended to by this other doctor that I didn't recognise, he quickly prepared me and rushed me to the ICU together with the ward's senior nurse, I actually thought I was dying by that moment... After getting to the ICU, they tried getting hold of my parents, but could not reach them.

I was then placed on this other oxygen which had this weird smoky smell, I managed to whisper to the senior nurse that I was thirsty and needed some water to drink, she promised to get me the water, but I quickly passed out, when I woke up, I found myself on a life support system and I was being attended to by this other female doctor... My doctor then came and explained everything to me, apparently I had developed an infection after my first surgery, he also told me how they've been trying to get hold of my parents without any success since as a minor, they needed their consent to conduct another surgery on me as my condition was now critical and required them to conduct an urgent surgery ASAP... So in my parents absence, they took it upon themselves to go ahead with the procedure... Because it was either they wait and I don't make it or they conduct the surgery without my parents' permission and save my life.

I honestly didn't care, I was just relieved that I could breathe again even though I relied on a ventilator... I think my brother had an exam that day, so he also couldn't come and see me... Few hours later, two new doctors that I've never seen before came to fetch me from the ICU to the operating theater, apparently they were assigned to perform the surgery on me by another doctor, I was attended to by a variety of doctors that day with their different specialities.

The following day my brother went to the children's ward like he'd normally do during afternoon visiting hours, but upon getting there, I was nowhere to be found, he was then directed to the ICU and when he got there, I was asleep and the sight of me being surrounded by all those different hospital equipments terrified him... From what he told me, he only stayed for a few minutes and left... He got hold of our parents and instructed them to come to the hospital ASAP for I was dying and from that day on, he stopped coming to visit me... My family arrived in the middle of the night and at first they weren't allowed in since it was way past visiting hours, but they explained to the nurses and doctor how they're from another province and drove to the hospital as soon as they heard the news of my condition.

When they came in, I was awake, but still on a life support system and my wrists were restrained to the bed because the doctors feared that I might start overreacting as a child and harm myself in the process... My cousin only looked at me once and left, he waited outside... I could see in my parents and aunt's eyes that they were also terrified by my condition but trying to be strong... From that moment on, I had to be strong for myself and fight because I could see the hopelessness in everyone's eyes.

I stayed in the ICU for a couple of weeks until my condition became stable and I was moved back to the children's ward... I was taken off the ventilator machine and placed back on the medical oxygen, but I still couldn't speak or eat solid food, I'd use a note pad and a pencil to communicate with everyone... My brother then started visiting me again upon hearing that I was out of the ICU.

My mother would later open up to me about how at one point, she had started preparing herself for the worst, but here am I today healthy and happy...😃😃😃... I'll forever be grateful of those doctors who teamed up together to save my life...☺️☺️☺️

That's my survival story.
I love your story and today you are such a beautiful babe that shall turn any man's head upside down.

I think they pay Moderator, I mean it's a job, a Remote one.
I would like to moderate the Romance section if possible
Initially they don't pay moderators back then when this forum was seen as a play thing but now that this forum is becoming a big hub hence the reason to engage and pay moderators and that Romance section is a very busy section and also the Politics section these sections are more busy than the other ones and hence they need extra hands. What to do is frequent participate in this forum especially the Romance section so that when they come up with advert of moderators needed so you can apply and be taken.
BTW romance is sweeter than sex.

How will this OP be willing to help a stranded person next time?



Even if you track the man down, he can deny. How can you prove the PowerBank belongs to you without the powerbank serial number on your receipt?



Sure about this 28th Dec? That's a Sunday.
That is not any old man but a thief forming to be elderly man so that he won't be suspected, forget about that power bank because he would definitely have sold the thing even the same day he obtained the thing.
