Now I have to search for that interview and watch it

When you find it, please share

SmartPolician:
Neither is the negative version of Either.

Neither goes with NOR, while Either goes with OR.

Either and Neither are used when you have two items. You don't need NONE in such instances because NONE is used when the number is uncertain or undefined This is the answer to your question.

Examples

Neither Mark nor Matthew attended the party. (The two boys didn't attend the party)

None of the boys was at the party. (The uncertain number of boys didn't attend the party).

A pity we will take pride to learn a foreign language over ours even to the extent we will want to sound like them.

🤣🤣
Mine was that someone at the bridge advised me to let him tow my car, because if I let him go he will alert the road safety officers ahead to do the towing themselves

This one just came and want to tow the car by force. I was still negotiating with the agberos o. Truly it wasn't safe on the road like that but why will you be threatening to tow my vehicle to lasma office?

blackgold2018:
kai!!

But why are they heartless on those towing amount. The 20k sef was until abeg and weeping🤣

Even dou you decide to push it out of the road. Road safety will tow it for you🤣🤣 by force. And theirs will be twice2charges

It is by force towing o. I didn't call him

blackgold2018:
how much did you tow your car?? And what distance?

Omo those towing vehicle criminals at 3rd mainland bridge collected 20k from me just from the bridge to Lekki phase1

My car did overheating too. Due to radiator linkage

I paid over that o. From Maryland to surulere . Had to beg for 35k

People will always profile you base on what you have . The media world isn't helping matters. All we sing and talk about is how to drive exotic cars or own a car. Unfortunately, that's Nigeria for you. Basic amenities has become a luxury. Some of us grew up yo consider gas cooker as luxury, tap water as luxury, living in storey buildings as luxury, same with owning a car and many more like that. You will agree with me that people who live in advance countries don't consider owning a car a big deal as we think.

See, everything depends on your state of mind. If you care about what people say then you are a slave to the people. Just be responsible for whatever actions you take. It also depends on your circle of friends . We have had friends sold there cars and we never even felt it or look down at them. One of the friend uses my car often and I don't even for once thought he has become poor or something. Him sef no care



Reminds me when my car overheated on the road due to a leaking radiator. It wouldn't start. It was along the main road. Area boys came and asked to collect money, they wouldn't let me push the car . Ended up negotiating 6k. Towing vehicle came almost immediately and fought that they most tow the vehicle as It is obstructing traffic . Those one sef na tout. We towed the vehicle, at every junctions , touts wey coming to collect money at almost all routes till I got to my mechanics place.

See ehn, Lagos and the power they have given to touts no be here .

See, this Nigeria we are in ehn? People are vicious . Lagos that i am in. i can count a million problems wrong with us.

Your car breaks down on the express and you will see Agberos coming to ask you for money. Towing van will come to exploit you.

lastma will exploit you. Imagin Latsma working with area boys to mislead you to take a route so that you will be arrested. Same with police.

local government people will come to lock your shop over local government fee or whatever. Rather than carry their duties professionally, they will act high and mighty shouting and talking carelessly to one.

Take your case to the police station, even you the reporter, innocent, accused must pay something. Imaging asking you for Izal money to see somoene that was locked up. They will talk to you anyhow especially the women and ladies.

Has anyone made a return at the famous ladipo market and collected back his money complete or in one piece? How can i return a part that isn't the same as what i wanted next day after purcahse and seller is telling me to pick another item that he cant refund me , that even if he will refund me, i will have to wait till month end. Month end came and pass. he hasnt refunded.

How have we normalized collecting money without rendering the service required? A business man will collect money before delivery then fail to deliver.

some people will knowingly sell a bad product to you as good and wouldn't accept a refund when you complain. computer village is notorious for this.

To be honest, we Nigerians like abusing the system, we like short cuts. we always like to play wise. Rather than join the queue, we will be looking for ways to cut the line and when we do, we will call ourselves wise and sharp. Everything in lagos is about being sharp. You wouldn't want to talk quietly so as not to be taken for a fool.

Market women will blame government for flood while they dump refuses in canals and gutters. You should check some roads in constructions and see what i am saying. Brewries to Badagry road under construction is already littered with refuse heaps and blocked drainages . Same with the Red line rail route, Ikorodu and all others. Should we be told how to dispose refuse properly?


That is why we are always suprised when one is honest with money in this part of the world. I mean, how many people will return a phone he found? how many will return money he found ? How many of us will do that? If we ask people why they stopped giving strangers a lift, most will say it is because they have had experiences of items being stolen from their cars when they do that.


Problems with Nigerians are plenty . we just like to trade blames. If we all behave and be true to ourselves, the government won't treat us the way they do. Afterall, we are the government. Aren't we? They say we are not corrupt until we get to that position of power. Pastors and imams aren't left out.

1001 issues with Nigeria are Nigerians.

han han. Things are not going well for you as how? So you want to further your education or you want to start business?

Kingray10:
You are underpaid, you are doing the job of four people, the company has enough profits to pay you enough for you not to steal from them, yet they refused...

Well, if I am in ur shoes I will ask for salary Increment. And if it's not done to my satisfaction, I will continue what I was doing before..

two wrongs doesn't make a right. The same way you are thinking is the same way the Nigerian government is screwing us.

Female customer brought DSS to the tailor's shop. you know what this could mean? Abuja Girls and bieng senator's girlfriend or one top oga's girls.

Not for assault

NPF is dumb

I had to go search spider Victor and I found it is a paintball gun. NPF could have at least researched

phr0nesis:
I go to Lagos occasionally, and I'll even be there tomorrow. If I can meet you somewhere and run the transfer

Send a mail .

Ballmer:
This is where Agberos should put themselves to use. Any ipob Obidaftis UGM Obidient ESN caught boarding must be matcheted thoroughly that he or she never dare to return to vicinity of the train talk more dare to board.

What the he'll did I just read? I want to believe you aren't an adult or you are one behaving like a child .
See what we have reduced yourselves to?

eki2000:
Just like calling a pussy cat "buz buz buz" and it will respond, that same way the lions have been trained overtime to fear sticks, especially if they have beaten or threatened with it severally.

Exactly. Nigerians just call everything Juju.

That stick is enchanted.
If you drop it, you drop your life.
Hit like if you believe.

Africa!! Everything you don't understand seems to be jazz to you. You have never visited there and you are concluding the stick is enchanted.

There is also a reason why you must stand taller than the lions.

Nairalanders please is it fair for a mother to suspend her own daughter for fighting her staff?

My friend's mother owns a large company with lots of staff, so she recently completed her nysc program and waiting to be called up for a job so she had to put up at her mum's company as an intern and she was doing her job well to see things done.

Most of the staff do not like to take instructions from her and this has resulted to altercations with most of them, they keep reporting to her mum till a meeting was finally called.

The staff seems to have connived against her and without even bothering to hear her side of the story her mum said she knows what she can do and she won't allow her to cause problems in her company, so she immediately suspended her and ask her to leave and go home.

The staff were happy with this judgement and some made some snide remarks while she was leaving.

This thing has really troubled her recently and she's thinking maybe her mom doesn't like her as she stated that if it were her brother she won't give such judgement.

Was she wrong in trying to put things in order which resulted to most of those fights with the staff?

Was the mum right to have passed such kind of judgement before her staff ?

My friend's mom told her to go resume next week on the condition that she'll behave well but my friend told her mum she's not stepping foot in her company again.

Nairalanders please without being biased who is at fault here?

The best people to receive advice from are people that it hasn't happened to and people that it has happened to.

People that it hasn't happened to will try to imagine the situation and give their advice as a 3rd party. These advices are usually right and likely exaggerated.

The other type of advice, from people it has happened to. These advices will give you truthful experience of how they felt and what they could have done better.


You, who seek advice will them have to be patient enough to decide on which to follow.


Had similar experience, I Scolded the relative instead. It does hurt the relative but I knew what I was doing . I was going to teach a lesson on tolerance . Also, I expected the relative to report first to me before taking actions .

So, your friend's mother might not actually dislike her child, infact it could be the reverse. Your friend should also calm down and try yo understand her mother . We always reason with emotions which could be misleading most times

This should feature in an episode of "BANGED UP ABROAD".

If people want to. Please let them.

If Nigeria is working, we wouldn't even be having this kind of discussion in the first place

phr0nesis:
I'm really interested in having this series, please is there any way I can get it from you?

Maybe you can send a flash drive. Abi how?

Exodus15v11:
Since her husband is a Lawyer, then he should know that the name of the legal owner of the vehicle should be on the documents. That said, since he's a good man and has been "instrumental" (I'm assuming you mean he has helped you in some kinda way) to you and your family, why not involve him in the process of you surprising your sister with the car? You would still be the one presenting the car to her, as you're the one who bought it for her and the one surprising her with it, but you should take him along. Just tell him not to tell your sister beforehand but as a mature man, once you tell him it's a "surprise", he should know not to do that.

About him feeling some kind of way,
I'm assuming he has a car of his own, so there's no reason he should feel somwhow or envious about your sister having her own car. Even if he doesn't have his own, that's the more reason he should be happy about the car. Any grown and mature man/husband would have no problem with this at all.

Youngdanaval. This is the best advice. Since you said both of you are pals, involve him, the husband in all of this. You two could even arrange a surprise party when u want to launch it.

You can call the husband like this:

Bros. How far na? E get wetin I go wan yarn you o. Make we see , e go sweet .
I dey reason obtain a car for your wife to dey take comute work. As you know na, I like this my sister well well. Just wan appreciate all she has done . Na him I say make I tell you make we go fir arrange am as surprise for her.

He will agree and then you will continue by saying, " I will get the paperwork sorted too, If the husband na Guy man, it won't be an issue



Truly, I don't see a biggie in buying a car in your sister's name for her here but I also understand you about not creating a friction between the couple. Man and ego, especially when the husband doesn't have a car . People will take it differently .

I am in Lagos. How do we go about it?

Kingosytex:
We just dey destroy and demolish things

Why not bring the culprits to book and convert the refinery to government use?
Since they refine fuel of nice and high quality octane value, why not convert it to government property?
Even if the standards fall short, why can't it be upgraded?

Government refineries not working

Illegal refineries are working. Can you see the irony? The irony Nigeria is presenting to the world?


That's to say, the people in power are not after our welfare but theirselves. Evil and selfish people

Straight from the heart was aired on Raypower.

It isn't rhe same straight from the heart then. The one I am talking about airs at night and it begins with Bryan Adam's song of same title

One of Ex.HDD failed tonight, and everywhere immediately felt dark and gloomy 🤢😞. 500gb worth of classic shows and movies i collected over a 3 year period, gone in a flash 😩. Immense immense pain 😔. I need to actually move 100% away from physical storage for all my media fr 🤦🏿‍♂️.

Hdd? The failure is imminent. You should have known better to back up somewhere too. One reason I always share files with anyone that needs it.

I have lost the full complete seasons of Mind Your Language . It was people that I have given that came through for me

NLchief:
I made a terrible oversight of not checking electricity bills before purchasing a house. It just completely escaped my mind till after purchase.

I just found out there's electricity debts of 500k unpaid to IBEDC.

How do I handle this?

I know it will be difficult getting such a negligent
previous owner to pay such bills.

Please report to NERC. They handle issues like this.

It is the law for the landlord to pay outstanding debts before a new tenant comes in
