Ooh u must be thinking ur say Is important to me ba?? I can't even remember what came out from ur brain them.
Go and deal with your depression...

Lmao...

Druss:
That may suggest that you need to expand your circle of knowledge a bit further. Those that matter knew about the event. If Toke was your road of enlightenment to know about one of the critical meetings dealing with this planet's future - I would suggest you need to elevate your mind.

Maybe I need to elevate my mind, but there are millions of people that also only heard about it cause of the trend and each and everyone of them matters. That's what counts, any other thing is putting sentiment over logic.

Seun:
Fellow Nairalanders,

I'm pleased to wish you a Happy New Year!!

2024 will be the year of Nairaland's resurgence. I will face Nairaland squarely like I used to before the discouraging Data Loss Incident of 2014. I will hire more hands to help us to improve Nairaland.

The problems of Nairaland that we should have solved years ago will be solved.

* We will defeat tribalists, trolls, & spammers.
* We will complete our advertising platform.
* We will improve the UI and UX.
* Home page topics will be educative & fresh.
* We will reverse the anti-women trends.

However, I must warn you that things will get worse before they get better. Please stand with us and fight for u as Nairaland faces the tough challenges of 2024, which have already started.

Happy New Year and thanks for using Nairaland!

Seun Osewa,
Nairaland's Founder.

Happy New Year, Seun.

You know, for a moment, I thought you weren't noticing the egregious anti-women trend on this platform. Happy you intend to do something about it.

OlawaleBammie:
U were killing it until u told the line on bold...

Nothing u fit tell me to make me believe that u re not a lady. Nothing.

Na una dey always claim victims even if the victimisation is bn shared equally by both gender, na una go publicise am and make it look like its only you bn suppressed.

Na so tiwa savage talk say women are not making sales in the entertainment industry because they are not other gender, when actually she was single rubbish upandan., why didn't Teni, Simi and Ayra say same thing??
She didn't say same when she was invited to play at the coronation of king Charles oh, she kept quiet like Lake. That showed she is also envious of her male counterparts bit didn't know how to convey it to us

Sorry if I ever gave you the impression that I care about what you or anyone else thinks about me cause I really don't. I said what I said. Deal with it.

Druss:
Toke is not that level of celebrity. What has she done that has made her famous that a company can proudly use her as its face?

She's not that level of celebrity, yet her presence created a trend on social media. I think she got the job done, whichever you look at it.

lexy2014:
how did Toke's "presence" publicise COP?

who did her "presence "publicise" climate change event to?

who invited her to come and "publicise" the event?

what does she or what has she done that has made her a celebrity?

It publicized it to me and millions of others who wouldn't have known about it if her presence didn't create a trend on social media. And if you think she could've entered there without an IV, then it's a waste of time replying you any further.

OlawaleBammie:
Ok

That means she's chopable, had the tendency to be chopped like appetiser or dessert by our looting politicians


But wait, wetin she find go there in the first place?? Was the event for every Toms and Jerrys??

So you think she was not invited? She just carried her bag and went to Dubai and they allowed her in? Dude, it's not uncommon for celebrities to be invited to summits. They may not know much about the main subject of discussion, but thier presence is simply used to publicize the event. Many people wouldn't have known about the summit if Toke wasn't there. Those people calling her names are just envious. Nigerians just like to pull down anyone achieving what they can't achieve especially if it's a lady.

God1000:
This phone cost around 43 billion naira with the current exchange rate.


Wealthy black men will buy this phone, white people don't use such expensive gadget

Y'all take every opportunity to take a jab at yourselves. It's giving self-hate. This is a luxury phone and just like any expensive piece of jewelry, it's not something you buy and hide. The few people that own the phone are known. One of them is Javad Malik, a Malaysian. The other is Nita Ambani, an Indian and the wife of Asia's richest man.

kooyanbliss:
Bro at a point when she was hitting me too hard i told her i no dey do again that its over between us but she kept on stalking me. You can’t understand how badly she frustrated me. I don vow never to beat a woman in my life, she pushed out the demon in me

Yes, but no matter how the story is told, acknowledging that there was a better way to handle it and that you made the wrong choice is the first step towards unburdening yourself. It doesn't mean she was right either. If possible, talk it over with her and break up with her if you haven't done that already. This is necessary because it will give you some closure and also help her heal emotionally cause you both need it. At my age, there are some things I've said or done in the past that still saddens me when I remember them today, but what makes me feel good is that I didn't go into denial and that I was able to talk it over with the people involved. Good thing you learned your lesson. Maybe you'll always remember this feeling when next you're provoked, and it'll help to deter you from doing it again.

nnamdizen:
Something I really need clarification about, why would a guy give a woman head and still go ahead to wear a condom to Bleep her, does the mouth produce a form of antibiotics we don't know about?

Probably because, though some STD's can be contracted through mouth action, it still carries little to no risk of getting or transmitting viruses like HIV or leading to pregnancy. Nevertheless, there are a lot of precautions that should be taken to make MouthAction safer.

That said, OP, you just wrote an unnecessary long epistle aiming at disparaging women as if men don't have STD's. If you really wanted to educate people, you could've simply told them to use condom with anyone that isn't thier monogamous partner and even with thier monogamous partner if it's the preferred method of contraception.

"Women and pretends"? Bro, leave women alone and work on your English.

Osu is still practiced in some places in 2023? I thought it was something read in history textbooks or seen in movies. Wow... man's inhumanity to man.

I don't understand. Why is it so hard for people to break up or give each other some space when things aren't working out between them? There's no kid or marriage tying you together, why would you keep staying with someone who is comfortable with hitting you? Why do you think beating her up was a better solution than sending her away? You're writing this epistle out of guilty conscience, and the truth is, no matter how much support you're able to gather on here, you'll always feel guilty cause the stain of being an abusive partner doesn't go away. Do not be deceived by those calling you a gentleman cause a gentleman wouldn't even share his house with an aggressive girlfriend.

That said, the only thing that would make you feel better is if you talk things over with her and part ways afterwards. You both need some form of closure. Be more discerning next time.

Happy Christmas!

Nairaland is back!

OP, you shouldn't trade your morals for money cause it'll haunt you later in life. I'm not saying this cause the man is gay as I honestly don't care about the gender anyone is having sex with, and I certainly don't want to know how many people anyone has slept with. However, how you feel about what you're doing is what really matters, not what Nairalanders think. It'd be a different thing if you were getting down with the said individual because you find him attractive and you both are consenting to having fun together or because you're in the business of prostitution. Having sex with him solely because you need this job will make you feel dehumanized/worthless. You'll keep thinking about it for a long time, and it might affect your mental health in the long run. The validation you seek here now will not help you then.

Again, this isn't about gay people. The so-called helper is not a nice person. He could easily get other people to sleep with, why exploit someone's bad situation? Shouldn't sex be fun for both parties? It hurts me to see people throw away thier morals for money. OP, follow your heart.

By the way, what happened to NL?

Nairaland Trump lovers don't know how to react to this. Lol

duduade:
And when it is being confirmed

What happens next

They just look for new ways to draw division lines even when it doesn't make sense.

pansophic:
No. As a true believer in Jesus, a low and even trimming of the hair is acceptable without total balding or carving (shaping) of the edges of the head or beard. Anything more than this is condemnable according to the Bible. It may be a hard message but it is the truth my friend.

So God is a black African? Or maybe he has a different standard specifically for black Africans? Why can't you see that you're just viewing religion through the lens of your own culture?

KnownUnknown:
America, the land of bullshit, created a new phrase recently called “Customer of Size”.
That man is a “Customer of Size”.

It is the land of bullshit, yet you all can't wait to adopt any new thing they create. You're already conveniently using this new term from the land of bullshit.

Please, why were they screaming? The onlookers were shocked that a man and woman were probably having sex? That is it?

I doubt if it is food poisoning


Too much dirt can make food looks like it was poisoned

Take a look at where these food are being cooked you will almost vomit

Same thing. Food poisoning doesn't necessarily mean someone doctored the food. If it's as a result of germs or any other harmful thing in the food (maybe due to a dirty cooking environment), it's still considered food poisoning.

Validated:
One thing I advise though. If you have a house in Lagos, Abuja or PH, do not sell it. Atleast when you come back, you have a place to lay your head. That is if push goes to shove out there.

And if your house is not in any of these states?

Obavoh:
I am not a beggar. It is a loan I will surely pay back. Why can’t he just say he can’t lend me , instead of playing my life like long tennis

Sir, how is it you can't hear what he's been telling you for two years? Please, be discerning. Saying NO to relatives normally leads to family problems, so it's not uncommon for some people to let you know they can't lend you the money by thier action. Generally speaking, people don't lend out what they can't afford to lose especially when the borrower is a family member cause we all know the drama associated with getting one's money back from a family member. So your uncle may not be in a position to lose 600k at the moment. Being rich and being wealthy enough to have excess cash lying around to lend out are two different things. It's not as if you asked him to lend you anything he could. You specifically told him to lend you 600k cause you assumed he has it. That alone implies you may not appreciate his widow's might. So he decided not to engage at all. Get the message and move on with no bad blood.

Splitted? Please, the past tense of "split" is "split".

Supremos:
Tell me somehow that I think Canadian immigration laws are made for Nigerians?.

You must be clout chasing.

I never implicitly opined that the new laws is for Nigerians?

I only pointed out the the challenges that people who are intending to move to Canada via the study route, are most likely to face

Your comment:
"UK and Canada is tightening their immigration loose ends apparently because they have figured more Nigerians are willing to sell everything and Japa."

You explicitly stated that they are tightening thier immigration system because of Nigerians.

Supremos:
UK and Canada is tightening their immigration loose ends apparently because they have figured more Nigerians are willing to sell everything and Japa.

What % of Nigerian has such amount of money for traveling?. And if you have such amount, what are you traveling out for?.

I now understand what Peter Obi meant by governance is all about giving hope to the citizens.

Nigerians has totally lost hope in the entity called Nigeria.

Even Jj Omojuwa ran away to UK.

Nigerians have a way of making everything about themselves. Nigeria is not in the top 3 immigrant countries in Canada, yet you somehow think Canadian immigration laws are made for Nigerians. Lol.

Memory

So will she be jailed for 14 years if she's caught with a man?

Was your account balance negative before the credit?

That's the UK version of snow. You're probably thinking of Canada/Russia standard.
