You may be right, Sarah.

BigSarah:
Hmm, forget about this girl she’s gone... probably a potential terrorist by now..

Just being realistic , please don’t swarm me .

This girl is gradually losing it. Her popularity is getting to her head.

It happened while I was schooling back then in Nigeria. I had what would be considered by students' standard a comfortable accomodation. It was a small self-contained apartment but well furnished.

Anyone who lived in the hostel with four or more other occupants in a room would understand how particularly inconvenient it was bringing in a girlfriend or female students to make love to.

Only very few of us who stayed off campus, and in our own private apartments, enjoyed such privilege with much ease. Close friends of mine would occasionally book my room each time they needed to 'spank' a babe.

So, on this particular day, a friend of mine brought his male friend and begged me to allow his friend and his girlfriend spend a brief time in my room. The excuse he gave was that his friend was living with his sisters and had no room of his own; and besides, the girlfriend he was bringing over was a "new catch" and would be returning to school the next day.

So, I allowed them in. But to my greatest dismay I discovered, soon after they'd finished making love and left the room, that this fellow used my clean boxer from the wardrobe to wipe his ejaculation (semen). There were also few drops of semen on the carpet besides the fact that my room itself now reeked of the odour of lovemaking. The lovebirds had not bothered to dress my bed after using it.

Then, to my further astonishment, I noticed that my Etisalat modem was also missing from where I'd kept it on the reading desk!

My dad (may his soul rest in peace) used to say to me:

"My son, if you can put women aside for now and focus on achieving your dreams, you'll become a better and successful man."

I took my father's advice and today I am the happier for it.

YES. Not listed in the snapshot you shared are also the many deaths of innocent Igbos resulting from those senseless Danish Cartoon riots of 2005/2006 in some Northern states.

Igbochief001:
We had jos 1945 before that ...the list is endless

I953 exactly. (Kano Riots)

Igbochief001:
Before the coup what was the excuse of killing thousands of Igbos in the north in 1955

Return the phone to him. If he continues to threaten you, report the matter to police.

husseinaaa:
I met this guy 2018 in my Madam's tailoring shop while I was learning as an apprentice.

He usually comes around, he talks and jokes with everyone in the shop and we are all free with him after sometimes of showing good behaviours towards us.

To cut the story short, one day he asked for my phone number that he wants to be communicating with me, so I told him I don't have a phone I am not working yet, I am still learning and he smiled and promised to buy me a phone, which I told him if it's not just a gift he should not buy but if he wants to dash me for no reason like having intention of relationship or sex etc he should. Then he said he just meant to buy for me as a friend and I thank him.

So few days later he gave me 50,000 to buy myself a phone and I collected it and appreciated it.

So we communicate normally but just as a friend.

Last month he started asking me out, I told him am not ready for relationship because the kind of suffering and stress I pass through to survive totally made me lose interest for anything like that, he got angry and told me to send back his 50,000 to him or I should accept him. He is threatening me because he knows I cannot afford such money to pay him so I told him to give me time, I will refund it just to avoid problem but he said no time will be given that either I should give him my virginity or if I don't pay before next 7 days he will destroy my life, either by jazz or attack.

I just don't know what to do I need advice.

Don't allow anyone to body shame you. Not even your husband would have the right to do so. If he loved you enough to have married you, he needn't be confrontational but take a practical and friendly approach to convince you to try shedding some weight (if it's what he wanted). Besides, it's not a good idea comparing one's wife or girlfriend with other women. Most women do not like that. However, I can advise you exercise more often and also eat healthy diet. But don't do so because you want to be like the pastor's wife and then please your husband. But do so because you need to stay fit and healthy.

Rhodaogunpeju:
Why are our Nigerian Men so insensitive.

I'm naturally a chubby lady with curves and I remember vividy how my husband used to praise my physique and say I'm his spec. According to him skinny girls are not his type.

We got married and I have given birth to two kids and I added weight a little, plus we were living comfortably so the good life was evident in my life and body.

The church we normally attend, the pastor's wife has 5 kids already and she's much older than me but she still looks moderate enough with little or zero stomach fat.

My husband seeing this woman has constantly been telling me to try and work on myself, this man literally wants me to be skinny, when we married I wasn't skinny, the blow was when he compared me to my Pastor's wife, saying I have just 2 kids and I added weight while our Pastor's wife has 5 and she's looking like she never gave birth.. I cried and I have been crying since..


It hurts so much .. It makes me wonder if this man still loves me?

Nepotism?
What's more nepotistic than the way President Buhari has been excluding the Southerners in terms of appointments?

Those may be nicknames. Perhaps their system allows for the inclusion of nicknames in the identity cards.

The Reno5 with a Snapdragon 720G is better. The other one (Reno F) is MediaTek and MediaTek devices (Tecno, Infinix, iTel etc) are not a great choice when choosing great smartphones. Some people are tricked with Camera. What really matters about smartphones apart from the OS itself, are processor and core CPU strength; the architecture; the screen technology; and then the battery strength. Camera/Selfie this and that are just marketing gimmicks. Even a phone with a minimal 8megapixel camera can still capture breathtaking images. When choosing a new device the most important things I look out for are as follows:
1. The OS (iOS/Android. If Android, at least must be Android 10 and above)
2. The RAM/ROM (4GB and above for RAM; and 64GB and above for ROM)
3. Processor (Snapdragon, Exynos, HiSilicon (if Huawei) but never MediaTek)
4. Battery (preferably 5000MAmph)
5. Screen/Display (Gorilla Glass, Amoled)
6. Network (4G+ LTE (or 5G depending))

I hardly bother about the camera in the phone. I prefer using my Canon portable digital camera for most of my camera needs.

But indeed Africans are gluttons. Must we eat everything? Personally, I can't eat this.

That probably may not be the case. Because they are sex-starved in the course of serving the prison terms (except some for whom conjugal visits are allowed) prisoners would often go out of their way to solicit for sex from a female warder. A few corrupted female warders would oblige in this case in exchange for money.

They were fucking before the male becomes a prisoner

It would be wrong to sell off her phone without her knowledge and consent (even though she's owing you). In some places, that will have serious legal implications for you as she could sue you for illegally discharging and dispossessing her of her property. But if you would rather keep the phone as compensation for part of the stolen money that she couldn't refund back to you, then get her to write an agreement to that effect at the police station. The way, her phone would be legally forfeited to you.

WalexyWWE:
Thanks to everyone who contributed I know have her phone and half of the money if she dosent show up within a week I will be selling that phone I swear. And luckily for me all the evidence is there on her phone. She has been mocking me and telling some of her freinds how she stole my ATM card. Victory at last.!!!

Honored at home.

I could secretly kiss you for this. What a brilliant response. A firm, decisive and useful advice coming from a healthy brain.

doggedfighter:
So you are now a married man?

The kind of advice you people seek on a daily

basis here makes wonder what is happening to our boys. Is the condition of the country affecting the common sense of our boys?

You saw a girl helped her and that's not enough , you carried her wholesale and started shouldering her responsibilities

And I know you must be telling your folks at home that you are broke.

That was how the one of yesterday wrote that his wife said his OWN mother is fetish and he rushed here for advice


Now we are to advice you on the sharing formula of her salary or help you ask her why she didn't tell you.

For a guy that's having financial difficulties who should focus on himself but chose not to do so.
YOU'RE A BIG SHAME.

Oh mother nature , never give me these as sons !

This is my state and I am so proud of these landmark achievements in the state. To imagine that IGR, and not federally allocated oil money, is propelling the speed of physical and infrastructural developments in Anambra State.

Exactly. And I have been wondering the same thing about young women who date and sleep with men quite old enough to be their dad.

Wow! Thanks.

chitheo:
The name of the movie is Accident.

Happy birthday to Chioma. She's one of Nollywood's best behaved actresses (at least on set). I hardly find Chioma Chukwuka taking on villainous roles or flirting in her movies. Though in one particular movie she did just that when she cheated on her doting husband, Kalu Ikeagwu, by secretly having an affair with another man. I cannot remember the title of the movie now.

I think she meant pestle, not pistol.

For me, Styl-Plus. But should prefer Westlife/Backstreet Boys to all these musical groups mentioned here.

saphiere:
If you were to bring back one of these groups, which group would you bring back?

1. Plantashun Boiz

2. P-Square

3. Mo' Hits

4. Styl-Plus

Yes. Kunle Afolayan is better than Ramsey Nouah. But Ramsey is trying. He performs better than most other directors in the film industry, at least. His movies, even though mostly not his own original story, are not flops, like millions of Nollywood movies flooding the market. Nigerian films are so popular in the United States. You won't believe it but we do watch a lot of Nollywood movies over here. Not only Nigerian and African immigrants, but white people also watch Nollywood films. Therefore it's only right that we need talented minds producing these movies. I am however disappointed with how the producers subtitle some of these movies. The English texts used as subtitles are often full of grammatical mistakes, which is so embarrassing.

iamL:
Ramsey Noah doesn't even come close to kunle. He just started and the two movies her started with are not even his own original story. They were a diaster at the box office, he made a mess of those old classic.

Giving time he will improve but not close to kunles league.

Citation and the tribunal are two of kunles most intelligent movies.

Thanks.

tot:
Sure, no worries. Also forgot to add Penance, Ehi's bitters.

I am checking out these movies right away. Thanks for recommending.

tot:
Yes, she is. Most of her movies are on ROK, would definitely recommend them: Picture perfect, Tiwa's baggage, Tough love.

I have not seen Biodun Stephen's movies, so I can't rate her along the same line as the likes of Kunle Afolayan and Ramsey Nouah. But I guess Biodun is equally another talented movie director to look out for, from what you've just mentioned about her.

tot:
Have you seen any of Biodun Stephen's movies? She is another unconventional producer/director in Nollywood, very creative.

I give it to Kunle Afolayan. The guy is good at what he does. I watched Citation on Netflix recently and couldn't stop wondering how he got it so right. Even the lead character in Citation, Temi Otedola, was only making her debut appearance in Nollywood, yet Afolayan succeeded to make her play the part well. Another film director in Nollywood whose works deserve equal commendation is Ramsey Nouah.

Happy birthday to the erudite professor. Osinbajo should have been the president instead, and Buhari his deputy (v.p.)

How much you are able to save within a year depends on the kind of jobs you do that yield the money. I can only be honest and speak for myself: I don't quite manage to save up the kind of amount you're mentioning (millions) per annum. My own savings acummulated over the years. I am studying here in Atlanta but also working and making money at the same time. But much of my savings ends up in my domiciliary naira account back home in Nigeria. A small chunk of my earnings do end up also as remittance to family and friends back home.

If I should look at my personal savings and equate the sum of money to living standards in this country, it would look as a small saving. However, as repatriated savings, it would appear as multiple millions.

So, it depends. The exchange rate of the naira to dollar plays a huge part.

MrGoood:
I am a businessman and the thing is I am in for money in any choice I make. I made around 22 million in savings last year. Though I cut family and girlfriends off my life to achieve that and am in Nigeria.

But seeing the doings of people outside The country, there was an America based lady that spent over 12 million naira on her mother's burial. For her to spend that much I believe she will have 20x of that amount.

At least for an upright thinking fellow, I feel like am making less so am thinking of relocating. Can I make over 22 million yearly in savings in USA, If no how much can I save? Talk from your personal experience pls, Let stop deceiving each other pls, How much did you save annually in USA? Please let be sincere.
