Well...

I guess we need to ask all the pupils and teachers who have been killed from time immemorial in the USA by school shooters why the "golden dome" chose not to protect them.

Is this depreciation or appreciation of the naira?

This article is confusing.

#canadianbaby...

Was that necessary though?

Voting in a skill-based competition...

Everything has turned to an avenue to fleece gullible people of their funds.

Lol...
I refuse to see your perspective until you bring a link that details everything that led up to that point.

You don't know if that's what those ones even requested for. You're here crying more than the bereaved. Give a more detailed info of what went down and stop using pictures and bias writeups to rile up people's emotions and sentiments for your selfish political gains, or the political gains of your paymasters.

It makes you come across as very unintelligent.

Lol... They saw tomorrow.

So many retards.
Please ask them if it's all rosy over there for them.
This crazy defeatist mentality ain't doing y'all any good.
No country in the world is doing much better at the moment, forget all the nonsense you're imagining in your head.
Maybe ask them for some assistance and hear their response.

Once a country is filled with lazy entitled b*tches that can't take any responsibility, statements like the OP's is bound to always pop up.
People in the same Naija are building houses and buying new rides daily without being in government or doing crime but of course, let the lazy doomsday prophets keep at it.

Lol...

If you receive a message that you just 10 million but need 1 million deposit to clear it.
Do you rely on your personal experience to accept or reject such deal or the unwarranted "fear mongering"?

If in a public transport someone mentioned they have a bag filled with dollars
in the booth to be shared by willing passengers.
Do you rely on your personal experience to join or reject the sharing party or people's "fear mongering"?

Suppose you were paid via transfer for a goods or service.
Do you just accept the SMS alert as payment evidence or you go for secondary verifications
based on "fear mongering" that the alert might be fake?

I'm not sure I understand what you want to achieve with your questions and the "scenarios" you're painting, but there's a difference between being security conscious and just being an absolute douche because some idiots have painted some worst case scenarios.

So I grew up hearing weed smokers are touts and criminals, should I start running when I see any weed smoker? Where's the common sense in that? If you can't use your discretion and give every situation a blanket reaction, then there's something wrong somewhere with such person.

You keep trying to justify this rubbish, but have you considered the harm it brings to the very fabric of human relationships and co-habitation especially in a country whose unity is being held together by a very thin thread?

What if the person that wants to use your phone has a real emergency? Will you watch people suffer or possibly die due to your paranoia? I'm sure you'll invent ways to justify such heartless and unwarranted reaction.

Nigeria is in the deep mess it's in today due to the government's knee-jerk reaction to every problem. Like a yoruba adage says, "cutting off the head is not the solution to a headache".

I'm not disputing the fact that such situations may occur but the solution is not to outrightly reject a person because you read of something online.
The person I quoted first said he eventually got someone to allow him use their phone but they insisted he put the phone on speaker, now that's a solution right there rather than the paranoid "not my concern" stance you people keep suggesting.

This is how people get falsely accused in public and would have been lynched before people discover it's due to the paranoia of the person that raised the alarm. Unfortunately, the harm is done already by then.

Tokskob2008:


No it's not..... I had an experience at computer Village Ikeja last year close to this.

My phone went blank overnight and I had to go fix it, my junior brother gave me the phone number of his engineer friend and asked me to call immediately I get to the market so he can come pick me because I wouldn't get the guys office no matter how hard he described (people who are familiar with computer Village understand what I'm talking about) it for me.

I got to the market with just a piece of paper where I had written the number plus my blank phone, now how do I let the engineer know I'm already in the market without a phone to call him

I spent more than 1hr begging everyone I saw just to let me make a 20/30secs call on their phone but no one accepted. I even bought airtime incase anyone said it's due to lack of airtime but they all gave me the same reply, " I don't want police problem"

I was about to give up and give the phone to any engineer I could see around when I finally approached a young guy I saw making a call, he looked at me somehow first then he accepted on one condition, that is I put the call on speaker for everyone around to hear which I did....

So you see now it's not just about unnecessary fear mongering but the reality on ground this days...

You just proved my point.

Everyone has been told such stories and became fearful in a situation that didn't even warrant it.

There's no reason for their action other than they were told this, or they heard that, or someone said this and that.

This is unnecessary fear mongering.

Sonnobax15:

Good boss .

But as he/she's feeding you,hope you're aware that nothing is sweeter than being self-employed?

It's people like you with lack of basic understanding of how things work that push people into unemployment abyss.

If everyone had the drive and ability to be self-employed, what do you think the economy would be like?

Efficient1:

We need a good graphic designer that reside in Lagos whose price is very affordable


You can indicate here by dropping your number here on Nairaland or send your Cv to us by this email to Graciousdays1234@gmail.com

I think most designers including myself can work remotely if thats an option.

Justifications like this is just irritating.

Those nations where you have branches, don't they have other indigenous churches there?
Why spread your wings so far and start unnecessary justification when there are other churches that exist in those places?
Of course, every other church is inferior. Or is it a case of the church having a need to expand it's "business" for profit purposes?

I really don't care if any pastor owns 50 jets, your business. My problem is trying to justify it. You won't need a reason to justify it if you thought for a second that you were doing the right thing.

You always know where to dig out all these stories to support your biase.

If it was the other way round and a believer lost the battle even after seeking the face of the Lord constantly, you'll probably say he lacked faith. You won't say God failed him, you'll blame him. Double standards and hypocrisy.

Anything to help you sleep at night.

redcliff:


No be us compete together for graphic design challenge wey seun organize that year? Damn!

We all saw how it turned out.

A contest or competition where the winner is determined by public votes is a NO No for me.

You don't get the best, you get the most popular.

I see a whole lot of ignorant comments here talking about ai this and that.

AI is a thing, but it's pretty easy to tell the difference between real digital art and ai generated art if you have any design knowlege.

One was talking about codes blah blah blah. Lol.

AI will give you vector art, but the lines won't be clean. His lines are clean and you guys are mistaking pixelating lines with ai generated lines.

Depending on the software being used, lines can be pixelated when the image is zoomed into or scaled upwards. That wouldn't have been the case if he used a vector based software.

No religion is good or bad.
There are terrible people in every religion.

A bad person will twist anything and everything to justify their evil ways.

realogk:


I dont want to disclose what's in the picture, but there are plants, all I need is just one particular plant to be cut out of the rest.

That's all

The cutting tool would do the job , I did one myself but I'm occupied

I see...
Aii, all the best.

realogk:
Anyone here who can help me cut some images with the cut tool.

There arw 24 images.

I just need you to help me cut them and put them in a white background.

Its quick work but I'm doing something that's taking my time.


OFFEE CLOSES BY 11.30AM

Just drop your number, I'll be coming here to check (WHATSAPP)

pAy is 3K

It's just free money

Is it to remove background from images or to crop images?

Ogbuu101:

How do revd srs and Frs elevate their family from poverty?
Apparently you’re not a Catholic and know nothing about catholicism

I was about asking the same question.

People that their families abandon sometimes because they hardly have anything to contribute financially since they don't make much.

It's crazy how people will have a warped opinion and believe it for so long that it becomes a fact to them.

I'm sorry o, but in an age where one complete side of a mobile phone is a screen, what sort of innovative designs are you people looking for?

For the cameras to be on the side or the fingerprint scanner to be on top? I don't understand. If you don't like this, buy a flip or fold phone. But yeah, you can't afford it so shut the hell up and use what you have. No one is forcing anyone to buy anything. Y'all should stop shitting on people's hard work and investments all because you can.

It's easy to say thrash about something you know nothing about or have a stake in.

digitaccountant:
I have a passport, but I need it to be edited so that it can fit into the Nigerian Immigration website for passport renewal.

Whats the dimension you need it in?
You can send me a message on WhatsApp, let's see if it's something I can assist with.

1k per video...

I don't even think anyone on fiverr will accept such offer, and that's supposed to be one of the cheapest freelance websites.

Lets stop disrespecting ourselves with all these hungry offers. If the person does a terrible job that's worth your money, you'll generalize and say all Nigerian editors are thrash forgetting you got your money's worth.

A straight nail gets hammered first.

The more good you are, the more challenges confront you.

Lol...

A place where there's supposed to be equality.

I hope they remembered to worship God after worshipping their "special guests".

There is a difference between transgenders and drag queens...
It's not uncommon for "Christians" to distort facts every once in a while to suit their narrative.

That's all I have to contribute.

CSTRR:

The president is supposed to know who he is appointing.
That's why he was "voted" for.
To make good judgement on behalf of Nigerians.

If he doesn't know about his high-level appointees, then it's even worse.
It means he is clueless, and he has no business being president.

I don't think I've read it anywhere that the said man is one of Tinubu's appointees. Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.

If that was the case, my initial statement will be invalid.
