All these men wey dey pay school fees for women wey no be their wives or siblings dey try o ! |
The business centre wey UK and Canada opened on top immigration ehh, na only God go forgive them. Asking someone that has known English language all through his life for evidence of proficiency in English. Yet, you will struggle to hear and understand the English some of the locals from these countries speak. At worst case, no need asking people to rewrite the IELTS exam they have taken to ascertain their proficiency. Its all about money and glaring rip off. |
The man just allowed himself to be killed. Someone that was in Germany, chilling after recuperating from an illness. He said, he wanted to return to Russia, despite warnings from the EU not to go. But the privilege of answering opposition leader was too exciting and he wanted to continue to receive Western funding. He got arrested at the airport on his arrival and that's the end now. He seemed to be enjoying the press coverage and his status as the only opposition to Putin. He could still have played opposition leader while in exile in Germany than returning to Russia. |
Government contractors are nothing to write home about. Go to airport road and see the nonsense pedestrian bridge put there. Why not do simple pedestrian bridge and make it look aesthetic than this zigzag pedestrian bridge they usually construct, wasting scarce resources in the process. |
The mum will tell the court that the daughter was suffering from one kind strange illness or disorder, which sex and cannabis, could help relieve her symptoms. She may even support it with incontrovertible evidence. Let me shock you: A librarian in my school then in UK, whom I was so closed to, as I regularly came to the library, once asked if I could sleep with her 29 year old daughter, who has been on wheelchair since she was six. That sometimes, the daughter felt the urge to have sex, which she haven't had since she was born. |
This gayish thing disgust me. A full grown man had the boldness to tell me " I love you" in Aberdeen while I was a student. Gayism is a serious sexual disorder |
They just want to use this opportunity to walk away. Let the local champions take over. If well managed, some local businessmen could transform nestle and bring it back to profitability. These foreign owned companies don't like making losses outside their home country. |
Women get mind sha.......dating a vigilante man. I do not want to sound insensitive, but those whose handwork involves use of tools like iron, knife, gun, hammer, wood, nail, axe and tool boxes are always violent |
I still buy for my kids. I don't take it because of high fat content, both in the roll and eggs itself. It goes for N300 in my place. Give my kids this with hollandaise yoghurt, you have done the best thing for them. |
EmperorEmerald2:Boyes dey for streets dey hustle as dem talk say education na scam. The boys wants to secure the bag, first ![]() |
I blame the insiders that leaked the initial letter. If that letter was not leaked, people would not have known what happened. Certain officials things should be kept secret in case of any unforeseen circumstances. Who was the insider within the Ministry of Foreign affairs that leaked the letter? He should be fished out. |
Truckpusher:I wished the OP could see this. I proposed this to a former mentor that moved to US . Both his son and daughter were given the hardworking man a high BP. Finally, we got a senior navy personnel that helped process admission into the Nigerian navy secondary school, Lagos. The son came and enrolled and completely became a changed person that he wanted to proceed to NDA kaduna. Eventually, he joined the US armed forces. For the daughter, we got her enrolled at the Domican College, Mafoluko, a Catholic run school. The reverend sisters completely changed her. Today, she is a neonatal nurse in Ohio, US. Institutions changes and shapes people's behaviour. Their father spent money to hand them over to disciplinarian in both Nigerian navy school and the Domican College. |
OP, the report said that a South African doctor earns 40times more than a Nigerian doctor, not 3 times. The 3 times relates to Kenyan doctors. The devaluation of our currency have eroded people's net-worth. I just bought a cartoon of chicken indomie today for 10500 in mainland, Lagos. |
I would have preferred Shuaibu, the current deputy governor. Obaseki do that guy strong thing. |
The corrupt politicians and their associates will take huge chunk of the money to the black and white markets to buy dollars. You keep wondering whats happening to naira. You can only push the naira that you have sold to the market and received dollars in exchange. |
Nigeria building poor quality roads since time immemorial - any road construction without granite being poured on the road first and allowed to set before surfacing it with coal tar will wash away within a space of time. What it requires is small port hole or a small opening and it will expand from their. |
This has been the known truth. Politicians as a whole, are the major problems of Nigeria. They control huge sums of naira and usually offload them to get USD, thus compounding the problems of the local currency. |
Angel55555:He is not white. He is from third world country. See cash out for the victim ? These sports men have women, waiting to be theirs but they will rather go for those that will nail them. I hope he doesn't commit suicide why in prison. |
I belong to old generation o but number two characteristics no follow, no matter how you try but it is doable if you want. ![]() |
The best area to cut cost with great savings is in your children's school. Check if you could do with a nearby school, where you don't have to be paying expensive school bus and other sundry expenses. Schools now have equalized themselves as technologies and uniformity of curricular have made standards to be uniform. A smart child will always be a smart child. Don't kill yourself insisting on retaining your kids on a 3ook per term school instead of 100k per term school. Peoples kids have gone to schools of 70k per term and came out better than those that went to 5ook per term. If you have the money, no problem - but don't do pass your power if you don't have or struggling to pay. |
I like the fact that the current heat wey dey now go show the idiot pepper for prison. She is used to an air-conditioned house but now, chilling in a 50C temperarure shithole somewhere in a Nigerian police dungeon without ceiling but only gbam-gbam. By the time she is out, her skin for don turn to the same colour like an expired Amstel malt drink. Wicked savages! The husband should also be arrested for negligence and lack of duty of care to the 11 year old girl. He owed that girl a duty of care and responsibility to raise her in a respectable manner. He should be charged, jointly with the wife to teach some negligent and carefree men a lesson. |
They are all the same. Don't insult one another because of party affiliation |
Let's leave this election matter and face what is facing us. The truth is, whether Obi or Atiku, this current economic scenario could still have played out. Some people predicted this economic downturn earlier but we didn't listen. The problem is that, the money the political elite stashed away is now being pumped into the economy. The huge volume of naira is chasing dollar as politicians would want to convert the naira to dollar. Obi or Atiku or even Emilokan, none is a Saint. |
This is what you get when a country fails with human capital development of its citizens. All pedestrian bridges and government parks are currently being occupied by destitute, gangs members, weed smokers. I got to Marwa bustop on lekkiphase one and decided to be a good citizen and use the pedestrian bridge. The dreadlocks looking guys, smoking weeds I saw made me to descend down quickly. The particular pedestrian bridge is always deserted, especially in the afternoon. One supposedly olosho, looking so weird, was there vomiting... .only God knew what was worrying her |
To even be making these statements through Shettima makes it to be another political statement. I expected this kind of major intervention to come directly from the president's mouth. Currency devaluation is the major challenge Nigeria is facing now and it is only the president or at worst, the CBN governor, that should be giving statement on what the government is doing to stabilise it. |
SMH....this is where a father figure was needed. Imagine if the man of the house was around. Married women forming feminist and saying they don't need their husband or they could do without him and nagg him out of the house will have themselves to blame. When situation like this arises, you find out that most can't cope on what to do with the baby. Trust me, if the man was around, that child wouldn't have died. He would find a proper medical treatment, even leaving the house with the child at night to a hospital. During covid lockdown, my daughter developed serious sickness that she was shivering and her breath wasn't good. My wife got some medication from a close by pharmacy which she took and her situation subsided. But around 11pm at night, it came off worse again and her breathing was terrible. I dressed her up, put her in the car and off to a hospital. We met some policemen on the road and I explained to them the situation. As we got to the hospital, she was immediately put on drip with some drugs and injections added to the drip as she was so weak. By mourning, she was able to talk and ate something. If I wasn't around that night, my wife wouldn't take the risk of driving to the hospital that night. |
Do Nigerian marine biologists and scientists gets into water to carry out research? We have huge aquatic splendours in Nigeria that will give the biology professors the opportunity to carry out research. |
You shouldn't have resigned except if your mental health was at risk. However, if the poor pay was your only consideration for resigning, then you made a mistake. You could have picked one or two clients and contacts from your former employer and continued to build your social capital and contacts. As s young graduate, except your sanity and mental health is at risk, don't resign. Continue to learn on the job and build your professional network and contacts. You could only do that while you have a job. Once you are out of job, your confidence goes down and people will start to question your ability |
WantsandMore:The poor no send. Dem go still dey born like rabbits, telling whoever cares to know say na Baba God dey give pikin. One man in one dirty one bedroom will be having 7 kids, all looking malnourished with browny hairs. |
Inflated government expenses are fueling the decline in value of naira. That is a known fact. Have you asked yourself where unspent budgetary allocations goes to? It goes to the parallels market to be converted to dollars, thus fueling excess naira in circulation. Imagine budgeting N1bn for feeding. At the end of the year, the person may not have spent up to N100m in feeding for his wife. Where does the remaining N900m go to? Most government officials do not keep unspent budgeted naira. It is either it is invested in properties or converted to USD and kept. The action of government and top civil servants over the years may have contributed and still contributing to the persistent downfall in naira |
These coaches dey earn mad money o - people's annual salaries, even by western standards. Not many people earns $90000 annually in US or UK |
And he is wearing a multimillion naira wrist watch, telling poverty stricken people to be patient. ![]() |
