One of the most difficult decisions.....resigning from a job and not sure of the next path to take. That was the stage I found myself more than 9 years ago, when I wanted to quit, to go solo and start my own consultancy. The pay was excellent, with enough pecks but the demand and stress were so much, coupled with the terrible Lagos traffic. I took the courage and didn't regret it. My hustle fees hasn't been at par with my last emoluments as an employee but I am enjoying the comfort and the pride that comes in working for yourself, setting your own time, picking your clients and the kind of jobs to do. Your health and general wellbeing would be glad that you did the resignation. This should be the case if you are sure of your next meal. No go resign if you are not sure of the next job.....na hunger and depression go reset your brain.

Mehn, health is wealth. 94 years and still standing and walking , living in Nigeria. You don't get to see such. May we be blessed with good health of mind and body. Good health over anything else. But I seriously doubt if this man is 94. If he is, his children should be in their late 60s. The lady looks like someone in her 40s.

An Executive for that matter with wife and potentially, grown up children. What a disgrace!!! His career just ended like that. He would be full of regret. Executives and senior personnel always take advantage of pretty secretaries, office assistants, delivery ladies, lower cadre pretty ladies and even cleaners. One GM then was lashing a cleaner. Cleaners usually came on time during my time and the man also came to work on time, daily. But I guess theirs were mutual as the lady in question was benefiting. She was even later staffed as a contractor with the company.

Oga VP, this is a joint ticket. Stop saying "Tinubu ", rather, say, "We". Stop reclusing yourself. You are part of the government. Tinubu is just one person and he is not government. Just say,"We need time or support to actualize our policies". You are working with him, you are part of presidency.

The fact that the man was " partially paralysed " made it worse for him. He couldn't fend off the aggressive wife because of his disability and the wife capitalised on it to inflict severe injury on the man that led to his death. To cover up, she took the body with an accomplice to the uncompleted building and burnt it. So sad! Imagine the pains the disabled man was going through at the heat of the squabbles with the wife.

I hope the Msc translates into a good job for herbin the UK. UK labour market for immigrants professionals is too harsh.

Hello guys, with my cgpa of 2.99/4.0 and 3.3/4.0 in my last 20courses what are my chances of securing admission for pgd political scinst memorial uni

Why Political Science? I know it is your choice but let me give you my opinion. I will rather you choose graduate certificate program in social work, community services or mental health & addiction. Your undergraduate degree can get you admission into any of three mentioned courses, even though, they are competitive. The focus as an international student should be about getting job in Canada after studying. The job market is not smiling and your chances of navigating through the labour market with pgd in Political science will be extremely difficult and challenging. Good luck!

Time for the foreign banks to cash out on his deposits. Most of these foreign banks hardly return funds left in their bank to the deceased relatives, especially if they are from Africa or developing world.

See how stupid Nigerians above are busy, taking sides in the war and cursing themselves on top matter wey no concern them. Yet, their country is terribly behind in all human development indicators.

This must be a makeover or renovation work going on. No POP man could be mad to do this kind of thing knowing the consequences. See how the person was even holding the axe with so much confidence and pounding the ceiling. This is definitely a renovation work.

Iwuanyanwu nationale of Owerri. The Real Madrid of the Nigerian league in the late 80s. RIP, Emmanuel. But he just married a very young lady recently

This man too dey talk. Sometimes, I listen to him. Why not name the government official? Or he is chasing clout as usual in his old age. Nigerians abroad always supporting protests in Nigeria. I don't like what is happening in Nigeria but I won't support any protests because of unintended consequences.

Her obsession for cleanliness - mehn, the obsession's is much.
I de collect shredding sometimes when I mess up the toilet and bathroom after bathing

You don't dare mess her kitchen up, whether you are a visitor or not. She will show you how it is done

Once my niece or nephew comes on holidays, I will tell my wife to mellow down as their level of cleanliness is not at par with hers. I will also tell my nieces and nephews to ensure cleanliness and that their rooms are neat and the bed well-laid. Don't dump unwashed clothes for long time in the basket. I have somehow learnt how to be organized with my things, wardrobe , shoe rack and bathroom discipline. I lack bathroom discipline. Before, once I was done bathing, soap foams will be everywhere on the tile walls and the bathroom would be like where children played with detergents.

Sir please show me way

Ask your question or what you want, we would do our best to support you with information. There are also people that can provide answers

They better confirm her before the orange comes into white house.

Nawao! My people, I thought I made a genuine personal comment, but the responses and attacks were not necessary. Ordinarily, I would have allowed it to pass but thought it necessary to provide some clarifications. I have said it many times, if you have money, Nigeria could be sweet and enjoyable. There are certain things your money can do for you to compensate for the inadequacies of the Nigerian state. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have problems with living abroad. I lived in UK for three years and wasn’t just happy with the lifestyle and I preferred the lifestyle I had in Nigeria prior to coming to UK.

Nevertheless, it provided me a rare privilege to see the opportunities that abound in the West for hardworking people, and I was determined that my kids should have access to the opportunities that abound in the West. I remembered the challenges I faced, after getting to the final recruitment stage of Statoil hydro, Barclays bank, HSBC, Scottish and Southern Energy, JP Morgan and HM Revenue and Custom. One question always came up: "Do you have the permanent right to work in UK"? Once my answer was “no”, I won’t get any further correspondence from the HR.

I visit travel thread regularly to update myself with the required information as I am currently sponsoring two people in schools in Canada. I also guide my relatives and mentees on visa applications, admission processes, right courses to study and living life abroad as some of them have limited information on those things and they usually came to me for guidance. I have provided guidance to lots of people and former colleagues on PR processes and some have relocated successfully. Please, the decision to stay in Nigeria is personal and I don’t need any “mental evaluation” as alluded by ednut.

I don’t discourage anyone …. rather, I provide guidance where needed. That I made an honest comment regarding the calmness, tranquility and loneliness of Vienna doesn’t mean that I am in tune with chaotic and disorganized society. Finally, my patriotism is not in doubt o! not just on paper but in “deed and in truth”. Apologies to the OP

Beremx:
Las las na Dangote go lead this protest. He has started doing it by calling government out. Government failure go touch everybody one by one.

We are watching

Chei, Sister, you "wicked" fa.

So, the man should be at Ojota on that d-day

I don't know why some of these whites gets upset once you mention "Jesus " or bible or religion to them. He felt that the woman dared him.

She is going to be hired by the top 4 if she's going to remain in Nigeria. KPMG, PWC, DELOITTE and EY, will jostle to have her. Not forgetting the multinationals and other top consulting firms. Education is not scam o! Try and graduate with good grades to stand a chance in the competitive graduate recruitment programmes.

See how the place be like Canada. No human traffic. Lonely and calm. My worst fear about living abroad. Though, most people likes the idea. If money dey, Naija sweet pass abroad. My own opinion

The mistake democrats made in 2020 by cheating Bernie Sanders has come to hurt them. Biden has put them in a state of quagmire. The truth is, they can't get a concensus candidate within this very short period. The only possibility, Harris, will not be a match to Trump. Democrats are desperate now and the man they taunted for the past 4 years seems set to become the president again. The worst nightmare of any Democrat. Kamala can't get the required votes......a woman for that matter! US is not yet ready for a woman president and a president of colour.

This him picture go make good "meme", especially, the [b]" You see your life" [/b]meme

No reaction yet from a Nigerian politician?

Peter Obi or Tinubu should react to complete the reaction.

Kudos to Democrats!

They are determined to see that TRUMP doesn't get close to the white house. My respect to Biden. I knew that it would come to this immediately Obama made that comment that Biden should "reconsider his re-election" bid. That statement from Obama was the final nail on the coffin regarding Biden's ambition. The democrats are also afraid that if Biden should remain, many of them would loose their senatorial and house of representative elections.

The new candidate would be up against a herculean task. Trump will likely roast the Democrats and the candidate that would succeed Biden, saying that they are coming up with a novice to challenge him. The election is Trump's own to loose. He has the momentum, currently.

This Dangote has been talking lately. It seems BAT is not ready to play games and empty our FX for him or supply free crude to him. I trust BAT, he is a businessman and not the usual politicians that have been giving concessions to Dangote. I guess BAT is asking for fair playing ground but Dangote seems to be playing the victim card. No more handouts and concessions. Pay as you go - Carry go, B AT!

Some Parish Priests always behave like demi gods. What an audacity? The same parishioners that are sustaining your affluent life style? Diocesan Bishops in the east seems very weak. They give the priests too much power and influence. You don't try this nonsense in Lagos under Cardinal Okogie or Adewale Martins - you will "collect" immediately. No time to waste. But in the East, they will be "pampered " and invited for "discussion " to resolve the issue. That's why some Priests in the East are involved in their local and immediate family squabbles, communities and things that do not concern them. Some women that have any of their sons as priest, will have issues with other people, they would call any of their sons that is a priest, as if he was a police man, to "arrest" those they had gotten into conflict with.

Trump support base is the usual core white supremacist - may looking at them and their faces, you could tell the kind of people they are ( Red people). I am not against Trump but his core support base in US are people with racist and domineering character - If you want attack me, Trump is oblivious of your existence in Nigeria.

The level of anger in this country is something else. The way Nigerians yell at each other, on the road, in a meeting, within the neighbourhood and even at home is terrible. Some transfer their anger on their children and those living with them

Some private schools don't even have primary six. From 5, you are out. Some have designed an ingenious way by doing From 4 to 6 just to confirm with government regulation that you must have primary 6

This tells you that Nigerian universities are full of sad lecturers, who lacks personal joy in themselves. For this woman to have been given this kind of birthday treat means that empathy and kindness are scarce words among lecturers in our universities. Things that are taken for granted in overseas universities. My lecturers in UK were superb, always ready to share ideas and listened to you whenever I visited any of them. My supervisor was excellent, sharing ideas all the time and supported me throughout my period of job hunting while in UK. In Nigeria, you hardly see that bond among students and their lecturers. Students are treated like trash by lecturers forming god for nothing.

Congratulations to him.
Anyway, the Catholic Church is the main and true Apostolic church.

The church that professes one baptism for the remission of sins.

My favorite city and city where I have most of my relatives, kinsmen and town's men. The update is frightening with looting and house burgling going on by the "akas". People's foods and other perishable items puts in the fridge have all spoilt. The hospitals are the worst hit and places, where preservation of things using electricity are used. Shopping malls have disposed of all their refrigerated items as all have gone sour and bad. Electricity is something that is taken for granted overseas and they hardly prepare for this kind of situation.
