These people will still boldly write bail is free at their stations but will shamelessly ask for money for bail.

Who told you they have shame? The person need to be locked up for telling u that kind of lie

WhiteIverson:
You say it's cheap but what is the purchasing power of majority of the citizens?

Let's compare

In Nigeria, the minimum wage is 70,000. If you were to spend your minimum wage only on 500 naira bananas, you would only be able to buy 140 pieces.

In Canada the minimum wage is $16.95. Multiply that by 40 hours weekly and also multiply by 4 weeks. You earn $2,712 dollars monthly. If you were to spend your monthly salary only on bananas at $4 dollars each, you'd be able to purchase 678 pieces.

When you want to compare prices of different countries, there are a lot of factors to consider. How do you expect the prices of bananas to be in cheaper in Canada than Nigeria?

Very correct

Nnamdipapa:
I see average Nigerians clubbing and having fun every Friday night, come to my area and see people having fun that average Canadians never have.

Remember, the average Canadian havelike 5months in a year with extreme cold weather with people staying mostly indoors with uber boring lives.

Remember u are talking of a corrupt country with lot of yahoo boys and political looters. So what do u expect? They only club, drink and patronize prostitution

advanceDNA:
U suppose relocate go east or north oooo… banana and other food cheap for there pass lagos ooo

Lol

Nnamdipapa:
Yes, you make a good points but, with all the above, more people are still miserable over there than in Nigeria.
You do realize Nigeria is still a developing country and, we still have a long way to go but despite all that, we have it good here in Nigeria.

On band A, I have lights for about 22 hours in a day and when the light is off, the kids go to play table tennis or basketball in the compound, don’t forget we have good weather all year round in Nigeria. This week there was a mass shooting in BC Canada leading to death of 10 students. This goes to show nowhere is perfect or totally without one form of problem or the other.8

Which one is band A? Is it suppose to be so? The weather is too hot and u are enjoying it because you have AC compare to those that don’t have. Can you now compare how much u save from the same work u do over there with doing it here and getting paid in naira. I am sure u got your comfort money from that Canada and came to Nigeria to enjoy it. Don’t Sha suffer those kids and make sure u use that your savings wisely bcs the millionaire before tinubu government is no more a millionaire since the money lost it value

Nnamdipapa:
I relocated in August last year, I and my family are enjoying Nigeria and the biggest regrets is not relocating like four years ago. It has been a positive experience here in Lagos so far.

Congratulation to you if u are really telling the truth that u and your family now lives here. You like mago mago and invading of tax, and I am suspecting u to have gotten some favor from this government

advanceDNA:
Ogaaaa….. relocate go nigeria go dey enjoy the cheap banana….

Ibehchizzy:

correctguy101:

Sometimes your good can put you in trouble

That is because the police are corrupt

brain54:

Police is a big problem in Nigeria of today

ZaddyJ:
My dear na you no look well marry the right person. I’m married to a woman who take up responsibility at home even before I said so. I’m in the USA Today , at her expense and GoD. So there are better women out there that won’t stress you with finance. We both re happily married with twins God has blessed us with .

Congrat

Sirchiboy:
1) Staying indoor as a child.
2) Not Having a GF as a teenager
3) Not socializing.
4) Being afraid to take risk .
5) Not learning hardwork and not leaving house at 17 or 18

Not learning hand work is my number one and not serious with studies in school because I was thinking of japa then. Also make sure you are doing something and earning salary to keep your account running. There were things we didn’t take serious back then that is now fetching millions for some people right now. So whatever u do, do it well because u don’t know tomorrow.

For you young folks out there, try and get something doing, if it is schooling, do it and don’t keep distance from your studies so your brain can remain fresh to studies and if it is work, try and continue learning even when the pay is not coming cus u will be surprise when the big pay will come and u will find yourself in another level

I forgot to add, never abort a child no matter what because it could be your first and the last child. So if you don’t want it don’t do it or use protection but never abort a pregnancy, even if your parent is your excuse, leave it and tell them because they will not kill u and they will be left with no choice than to accept it. Both side parent can not be so stupid to reject the baby. God bless

Okoroemekah:
that she smoked is not the problem but the fact she has the audacity to post it is the problem

Why a normal person will marry woman that smoke weed self? How will u explain it to your kids

Looking at this picture, that guy self na street guy for him to get mind marry this kind girl. I need to even see her present look self

Switruth:
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄. Where the Bros dey now? Children loved to be carried sha.

Seriously me self Dey find the bros because he latter joined police force using my dad’s friend connect back then and was posted out of Lagos at a time and that was when he stopped coming around. He was leaving in the present minister Mr dele Alake’s compound then

Urgent1Million:
And they had to make her wear Tinubu's cap?
What happens to a cap that would symbolize intellect or leadership?
So much for forcing this failed ideology down the throat of people at the slightest chance.
Anyways, "Etiyemonu" translates to what please?

To be sincere, is tinubu not intellect and also a good leader looking at the APC in the political fight? Make we Dey try talk some things as e be sometimes even tho the country is battling terrorism and poverty

OlujobaSamuel:
Lol, she is only likely to sign bill on children issue, sleep in state house, move around state office for the 1day, she no dey sign money out

She can not do chichi than to just move around and have the experience

Switruth:
You no even know wetin u do when you be small pikin...unless you grew alone.

I know a lot of things I did as a child. I remember putting the shoe on wrongly at a time and changed it back myself when I realized I was not moving well with the wrong way i used it.

I remember a bros always carrying me then and my mum told him that day to stop carrying me every time and allow me to walk. To me it was as if my mum don’t want the bros to be carrying me and take me out again but I latter realized she wanted my legs to be strong because people like carrying me when I was a child

popp:
It's not a mistake, it's their way of doing things. Especially this one to be precise.

Most times I wonder why all the children do this. They don't with an intention if I may confess.

Why must it be like this everywhere?

They don’t know the different from right and left, they just believe it is a footwear and u just put your legs in it and move

Britishcoins:
my target this year na to collect 2m loan from opay and stop using the account..

Criminal act

Goo0dHardDick:
It's not by that.

I have seen lots of families where adopted sons are completely useless just like this op's case. He insults the woman until she died and dude was planning to even sell the house until the woman's brother's children arrested the adopted boy. Adoption in Nigeria is suicide mission

I have seen some better ones that the women even willed their properties to them but families refused to let the boy have it but I know of one that is in charge of the woman’s property now and he is a nice boy. So as we have good we also have bad

Yorubastardz:
My aunt who was barren adopted a boy in 2002

Fast forward to 2025 last June.
This boy turned my aunt life upside down

He Insults her like mad. Disrespect her in front of visitors. Scold at her

This got me thinking if Adoption is worth it
Because the boy clearly don't feel connection

And during some of their outburst
He will curse her and her family.. Omo

After seeing this same pattern in 3 families
I have concluded ADOPTION IS A NO NO!!!!

She’s adopted one of the agbero abandoned child. She got the wrong one does not mean adopting a child is bad. Probably she most have spoilt that child or the child is just destined to be abandoned but she picked him up

notobiafrababe:
This is my honest take on this matter.
First of all, you handled it well by telling her clearly that you shouldn’t be the one she’s complaining to. That was mature. Once someone is married, especially to another person, emotional boundaries must be respected. No matter the history, you are no longer her safe space.
Now let’s address the real issue.
Marriage is not Instagram. Marriage is not wedding pictures. Marriage is not matching outfits and anniversary captions. Marriage is two imperfect people managing expectations, responsibilities, finances, personalities, family pressure, and sometimes regret.
Some people marry for love.
Some marry for money.
Some marry for pressure.
Some marry for security.
And some marry thinking “it will get better with time.”
But marriage only amplifies what was already there.
If she married a man old enough to be her father because she thought he was “gold,” then she made a choice. Whether that choice was influenced by comfort, pressure, or glitter it was still her decision. Regret after marriage does not automatically mean marriage is bad. It simply means she may have chosen wrongly or for the wrong reasons.
Now, to your question:
Are married men not spending time with their wives?
Some are. Some aren’t.
Are all marriages enjoyable?
No.
Are some marriages peaceful and beautiful?
Absolutely yes.
The difference is not age gap alone. It is compatibility, communication, emotional maturity, shared values, and realistic expectations.
A happy home is not built on: • Money alone
• Social media validation
• Age difference
• Pressure to “secure your future”
A happy home is built on: • Friendship before romance
• Emotional safety
• Mutual respect
• Financial understanding
• Honest communication
• And choosing your partner daily, even when feelings fluctuate
The bigger red flag here is not her unhappy marriage. It is her constantly coming back to you emotionally. That is emotional cheating territory. Whether she realizes it or not, she is trying to reconnect with a past comfort zone because her present is uncomfortable.
You are wise to consider blocking her if she continues. Protect your peace. You are not her therapist. You are not her rescue mission. And you definitely are not her backup plan.
For those planning to marry in the future:
Don’t marry to escape your current life.
Don’t marry because of pressure.
Don’t marry because someone looks financially secure.
Don’t marry someone you cannot talk to freely.
Don’t ignore red flags because of “benefits.”
Marry someone you can laugh with on a bad day.
Marry someone who listens.
Marry someone who respects your growth.
Marry someone whose values align with yours.
Marriage is enjoyable when two people are intentional. It is miserable when one person is pretending.
And lastly if someone leaves you thinking another place is greener, let them stay where they planted themselves. Don’t water what walked away.
Protect your single and peaceful life until the right person comes.
That’s my two cents.

This your message long small and I don’t waste time reading such long messages about girls because it mostly end the same way. But the part I read was a good advice tho

princepee:
As we speak many girls are being lured...
Those girls get mind die..
They will travel from Lagos to port Harcourt to visit a man they have never met before.

Nothing like mind there, it is stupidity and foolishness

First, there is no way u can get to that tape if you are not on the finishing line. Your leg move before your body only if u are falling off the ground on stretching ur head is when ur body is ahead. So the tape in the picture itself looks like an error or ojoro tape. And why do athlet stretched their neck when they get to the finish line if it is about leg alone as some people suggested?

Putindbutt:
We don't need him arrested at the airport, we need him detained when he reports himself at the EFCC office t explain where he kept $350m world bank loan he collected.

His passport has been seized, that's just one step out of many. Prepare his bed beside Malami, they will be in jail till 2031.

What about the subsidy money they say they are recovering and save to be use to better the country for the citizens? You talk as if he is the only one. This is not about the money he stole, it is about politics game to win the forth coming presidential election. Oh! I forgot, you are also one of them

LagosOrigin:
I hope he's caught soon and the right punishment served .

May the victim rest in peace .

The corruption in the country really opened way for all this killings and criminals all because they know they can buy their way out. The situation keeps increasing because those that have done it in the past are walking freely on the street. The looters ruling the country have done worst to get to power and loot Nigeria money so the boys are learning from them. Just be careful out there most especially if you are not financially balance or not connected to one big man out there

The manual is a loophole to rig

Vinnie2000:
Declan Rice.

That distance is too much for the likes of Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldihno and Roberto Carlos.

Definitely, u did not see the bending free kick of Roberto Carlos
