The Kate Henshaw i saw during channels TV live interview is way older than this.

Chai!

Makeup has done it again 😔

MeekGram7:
I personally experienced the same thing in the same Owerri, especially tigerbase, go there dey kill young boys while beating them, pick someone from the street and tag him IPOB/yahoo boy and if the family doesn’t have or know any big name, na so that one own for end. I’ve experienced the same thing this guy experienced three times in Owerri, profiling me because I look good, I don’t even have dreads, just lowcut and even if you explain you’re a developer, they don’t care. They’ll empty your bank account. Thieves!!

So what are Imo male elites doing about it? Going by the revelations here, half of FUTO's male students are at risk.

This is why to drive certain cars outside Lagos and Abuja is frightening.

PuZZyNegro:
This is what happens when you marry for financial reasons. The lady obviously left the ex because he seemed not ready financially to marry and she got married to someone she felt met her financial expectations, only to still go back to the same level she ran away from.

Women should stop seeing marriage as a means to escape poverty. If you want to live a certain lifestyle, work for it.

Sorry, but the bold is not possible as women are hypergamous. This even happens in wealthier societies - women pay attention to the earnings of the men who are interested in them. Poorer in finances than them (women)? The women are not interested.

candygist:
Mostly Yahoo boys. Many of them out their girls on monthly payment.

He stated struggling guys. Are Yahoo boys the conventional definition of struggling boys?

Gotocourt:
Kpekus sex, typical of Nigerian relationship. Nothing else. Billing billing is the order of the day

Parasitic leeches vampires blood sucking karashikas

In its raw form, men are success/financial beings while women are sexual beings. That is the raw state of man-woman relationship across all living mammals.

Oyinbogyal:
My dad did everything on his own, no family, no body helped him raise money to come to Europe.

And his journey was not easy at all. That is why I’m so confused as to why he is giving so much back home.

Then there's no cultural obligation from you because the argument might be if your dad isn't financially stable, his children should assist the children of his (your dad) siblings.

With regard to my cousins in Nigeria , I feel no obligation to help them, all of my resources are flowing downward to my children.

Fair enough.

know my dad may expect me to help them or his other family members at some point but it’s kind of his fault also, he chose to have kids with a oyinbo woman and raise his kids in Europe, I don’t feel any sense of cultural obligation to do these things. Especially when my family in Nigeria made no effort to know me.

Yes, that's of the effects of marrying a White woman. So, hopefully they in Nigeria are mentally ready. Bar them from viewing your social media updates.

Maybe it's because I've a soft spot for high academic achievers and know how financially tasking job hunting can be, especially for those outside Lagos and Abuja, I would suggest support those who are serious. But please, verify o. Ask questions and seek evidence. Hard evidence.

TrainPark:
I am not really sure now, as I have been out of academics for 10years now. But I know the salary range is between 400k - 700k ish. The difference is in the additional employee value proposition like overseas and local conferences sponsorship, prestige, accomodation, and good work environment in the case of universities like AUN, etc.

But academics na very good field to work for work-life balance and you can use the extra time for side hustle which can fetch you far more than the monthly salary!!!

Thank you for your reply.

As usual, the problem is too many children. It's bad that your dad didn't contribute to your education or leave a legacy for you and your siblings. It's also bad that your distant cousins are disturbing you every now and then. In your dad's defence about him sending money home. In some cultures and families, one child is supported by the rest of the family to exit Nigeria. So, it's expected that the child remembers others in Nigeria. If that was the case of your dad, it's only fair he supports those at home. However, this should be to a limit as his children (you and your siblings) now come first.

As for your cousins, the best you can do would be to support any or those (as you can support) who are doing something useful with their lives. So, if one is prepping for say the GRE or applying to jobs and needs a bit of financial support, fair enough to lend a helping hand. But for those with endless rent, school fees, everyday sickness, say no. Mind you, even the job hunters and postgraduate applicants, always verify the authenticity of their demands. Our people are innately dishonest.

For those with children, before you lend help, ask them how many children do you have? Those with three and above? Don't help them. The best you can do is to pay for the man's vasectomy.

Best regards.

Nigerians have exported their rabid tribalism to the Internet. Tomorrow, they would wonder why other Africans despise them and later whine about xEnOpHoBiA.

I'm glad other Africans are witnessing the true nature of the average Nigerian. They must have been deceived by Nollywood and our Afrobeats. This is how ordinary Nigerians behave.

Deepspirituals:
Some Funny Responses what is New or Strange about Yahoo boys Activities. Must she have dated a yahoo boy for her to know with all the Negative Confirmed Activities going on in our Society in the news and Social medias ... Sister You are Correct jare

Anyone who accurately reveals the everyday behaviour of yahoo yahoo boys either has lived, worked with or dated them. Whether as friends, business partners, neighbours or lovers, such people should be avoided by responsible human beings.

Tightpussy2024:
Damn if you do,damn if you don't

She has taken the noble path,she still collect insult. If she said she can date a yahoo boy,insult too..

One day you guys will tell us what is disturbing you. Whether it's evil spirit or madness or an epidemic or virus..
Edik. o5 is "disturbed"

.

Any girl who has dated or dates a yahoo yahoo boy is seriously a damaged person. Why should a hard working young man date or marry such a person? I wouldn't recommend a hard working lass to date a yahoo yahoo or ritualist fellow.

The reason she's questioned is because she knows so much about yahoo yahoo boys. So it strongly suggests she has worked with and/dated them. Most Nigerians don't engage in casual research or deep observation unless they participate in that field.

koning:
An amount that is totally useless to him at this stage of his life. Sometimes, one wonders the essence of accumulating so much money.

I have subscribed to the school of taught that aspire to spend all their cash money before they die. Bill Gates is our chairman. Don't leave shishi in the bank.

I agree with this. Build, save, invest and CHOP as well. Next of kin should continue with what they see, but CHOP yours to the fullest. What's an octogenarian going to do with more than a quarter of a trillion naira?

P.S. The chop also includes philanthropy.

fineboynl:
Selfishness and greed. Many girls want a good man but they don’t want to sacrifice or invest anything in the union. Yet you want someone that will do everything for you. Dating or different from marriage.

Your boyfriend can pamper you when dating but when you start living with him those things will stop. That when you face reality.

Their fear is that their moms built with their dads only for the latter to spend on baddies once they became financially stable. Just as some men are warning other men not to train their wives-to-be in the university.

Beremx:
it's not his fault he's an absentee father. He went to welfare and the case was being delayed. Police couldn't act without the permission of welfare. He's been silenced severally not to talk about trying to see his kids. A man man who single handedly trained his wife in school and she left him for Yul Edochie.
Indeed it is very sad

Lol

Lol

He should let go. It's a bad investment. Such is life.

completeskills:
I wonder what is happening in this country. One small boy will wear a woman's clothes and be saying gibberish. ...he will be making millions because people are viewing him....some will be working Their ass off almost to the point of death....yet they cannot pay their house rent.
Peller should know that he was fortunate because there is no special skill or talent he is showcasing that is making him money..infact many others better than him in the same social media space are not as lucky. He should remain humble and be thankful for what he has achieved rather than trying to discredit the hard work of others.

This screams envy.

Peller as odd as he sounds offer value and in return gets paid for it. Nothing stops you from offering value to the world. If you want to make a of money, offer value so people pay you for it. No one pays you big big money because you toiled so hard or have so many degrees.

Omenlon:
so Atiku after putting the coalition together he will just step down for Obi because na so Peter Obi juju strong reach. When Atiku and the likes of el Rufai, Rotimi Amaechi etc were having sleepless nights putting this coalition together where was Peter Obi? waiting for food to done for him to be served, abi? Make una dey play.

Obidients are largely very delu sional.

Allow them be.

TrainPark:
You are not right, sir!

And if you believe you are, can you provide any proof?

Which university are taking your data from?

No prof in government owned universities earns more than 1m monthly and I am being generous with the upper limit self.

Thanks for your comment. Any idea how much professors at Covenant, Babcock, ABUAD etc., earn per month?

The truth is: academia isn't a lucrative sector. Harvard MBA graduates earn more than their professors once they convoke. Bachelor degree holders in Mathematics and Physics out-earn their professors once they take up offers in financial services corporations. Anyone who wants to earn a lot of money as a skilled professional should omit academia. The salary of a software engineer in Tokyo is almost 90% what my professors earned as Associate Professors. One left to the private sector where salaries are higher. If you want to make a of money in academia, you need to write and sell books, discover new technologies and collaborate with investors and/or private corporations. The latter is what my head professor did - he works on compounds chemical companies are interested in. Thus, he drives two cars - both German. I've been told of professors who are rich because they research alongside robotic companies. One drives a Porsche. A good example of such a professor is George Church.

Nevertheless, salaries in the public sector in Nigeria are abysmal. With the figures I've seen up there, it has exacerbated considering the hyperinflation. My then dean earned max 500K per month. This was pre-Covid. With the devaluation of the naira, removal of subsidy and general inflation, whatever she earns now (based on those figures) is largely worthless. However, academia isn't a lucrative sector. It only offers job security and work life balance.

Nnamdipapa:
I left a good job to relocate because I needed the foreign passport desperate as a hedge against the uncertainties in Nigeria. Also, traveling abroad is one of the biggest education of my life which will help me in Nigeria. I got asked the same question when I was leaving Nigeria and selling properties as well.

I think the same applies to me. I'm just lucky almost everything was free.

Chai! God has been good to me.

Well, that's life for you. The state of the economy has a lot to play. She and husband should do all they can not to have more children. That would be the road to multidimensional poverty.

dokpanefe:
My guy sold his house, land and 2 cars.. bro do you know the cost to relocate family to Canada, the woman calm for 9ja before oo.. omo just fear Auchi women. . This my guy was doing well here in 9ja oo, this woman don put am for wahala now

Interesting. So why did he relocate since he was doing well in Nigeria to the extent he had a house, land and two cars? He also financed the cost of relocating the woman.

Nna mehn, men dey try o

dokpanefe:
This person na my best friend, omo leave many talk for vdm. He just comot coma today, I go drop update here. The wife na set this up. She don dey tell my guy since say she no one marry again. Them stab my guy for head, neck and stomach and leg, but police say na only leg self inflicted wounds. Them shock to see he condition aftermath. No worry I go drop update here soonest

If your tale is true, then why did he not divorce? I think our men are so invested in marriage it becomes hard for them to let go.

Infolenka:
Cole Palmer is a black guy just like Bellingham, Mbappe, Trent Alexander Arnold and every other mixed race footballer with a black parent and a white one.

The thing is Cole Palmer's father is black and his mum is white but he took his mum's skin colour.

That is an American definition. Elsewhere, he is biracial. Na America dey do the one-drop rule. If he were a Brazilian, he would be categorised as White.

From RaySimran's explanation, Cole is a White man. Henceforth, his children would be classified, rightfully so, as white.

P.S. Racial definition goes beyond the US. The world of racial definitions does not start and end in the US.

Noted. So NUN is the Nile University of Nigeria?

SeeWahala:
I pray he find befitting work. The current 4.5 and above still dey take 'charge and bail' dey see front

I seriously doubt a well informed First Class Law grad would be unemployed or even underemployed

The issue I've with the so-called antagonism towards Gen-Zs is: how is Nigeria better if the older generations are better disciplined? Nigeria is a classic example of how elderly people destroyed the country's economic growth. The majority of the heinous crimes committed by Nigerians across the world aren't by dem Gen-Zs, but older folks. Na Gen-Zs dupe American government and companies of Covid-19 funds? Was it Gen-Zs that hid foreign donor palliatives from ordinary Nigerians?

Socalled disciplined elderly folks aren't better and are in my books way worse than the Gen-Zs. No be Gen-Zs spoil Nigeria. They met it that way.

NybenSBF101:
Buhari's govt was so great compared to this useless administration

So what about Jonathan's administration compared to Buhari's?

Please check the stats: we have not had a GDP growth rate of 5% and above ever since Jonathan left office. Who succeeded Jonathan? That is where the issue started from.

NybenSBF101:
Which kind peer pressure? Bad Governance and poverty is enough to make people want to japa. During my housemanship in 2014, I was never thinking of japa, despite how bad the Govt was then, I was forming patriotic and e go better.

But Tinubu's Govt is so unbearable, like he was sent to punish Nigerians for their ancestral sins and theirs.

If Tinubu's administration is so unbearable, what about the man before him? I'm curious, why didn't you leave during Tinubu's predecessor's tenure? Was his predecessor's tenure better than that of Tinubu?

SmartPolician:
It's not peer pressure. There are really no good jobs in Nigeria. The few ones that pay well are extremely competitive.

I remember applying for an NGO in Abuja that pays in USD. They have just one slot and asked for a webinar to meet applicants and explain what the job entails. Over 150 applicants signed up for the webinar 😀😀😀😀

Nigeria is in a big mess

That's the problem with highly populated countries. The scenario you outlined happens in China and India. I once asked a Chinese grad at a job fair here, why Japan since your country has a much bigger economy? His response? The competition is too fierce. So, we've to go out. The same applies to university admissions. It's so competitive that bright folks have to go elsewhere so they get into good schools. Even after graduation, jobs are fiercely competed for in China notwithstanding the size of the economy. Invariably, birth rates are very low because the young people are tired and burned out. Whereas in Nigeria, young people are having four children. Tomorrow, they blame Tinubu 🙄

ufotunang:
... If Atiku gets the presidential ticket he will still lose the 2027 presidential election...because the southerners will not support him because it's the turn of the south..so Atiku should have patient till 2031 when it's the turn of the north

So why does Obi want to dodge a primary? Did Tinubu not go through a primary in APC? He wants it handed over to him and that's not fair to other formidable candidates. Let him test his popularity within the coalition.

---

Anyway, the coalition wasn't going to work in the first place. Coalition that has 80% former APC members. What's the difference between six and half a dozen?

Lol

Dude would lose again, and this time woefully. So he basically wants an easy walk to be the presidential candidate of a party that has two formidable candidates who are well known across Northern Nigeria? Lol

So ADC doesn't give him the ticket, what happens afterwards? He returns to divided Labour? Lol

Man is going to lose again. Congratulations in advance to Tinubu.

Lol.
