I can’t source for any van for now till June 1 due to lockdown

OP, I am sorry if this comment looks like I want to spoil your business. You appear suspicious, your ways looks questionable. you opened a thread to source for any used uk phone (for atmost #50 000 and #5000 for shipping) for anyone. I asked you some important questions, you did not answer. I also went to your whatsapp and posted thesame questions, you refuse to answer. someone here also complained that he sent you a message on whatsapp you refuse to answer. the next thing you closed down the thread.

I am at 39 (religious though and a bit shy) so no shame. but I am guy though. I plan of meeting my soul mate soon. so my dear be strong and make effort to find a spouse if you are a woman. Be steady not desperate.

ceejay80s:
This is how it is shared: if u don't have a meter PR there's a meter there but its not working, then the estimated bill must be shared equally, i f u like make only one bulb na him dey ur house, but if u have a working meter which a nepa man comes to check on before a bill is brought to the house, then it will be shared according to what ur appliances have consumed

Oga you are very very wrong. So in a compound where there are people who lived in 2-bedrooms, 3-bedrooms and a bedsitter (I.e one room with its own toilet, bathroom, and kitchen). The bedsitter tenants will pay thesame amount of electricity bill as the 3-bedroom guys? Common ! Be sincere.

Whois:
Share according to the number of rooms. 'Cus each room have it own light bulb, wall socket' etc

Thank you so much. Someone just told me how to do it in another thread. I have done it. But some of the tenants did not accept it. I then suggested we go to PHCN office to call them so that they come to our apartment to do valuation for us, they still argue (especially the so called caretaker). I am tired joor , I have decided to pay my own bill according to the per room stuff. If they refuse that I should pay more I will wait and move out of the apartment to another place. I a tired of troublesome tenants.

Thanks for your contribution.

Has anyone done business with this man? Please we need testimony of his integrity.

KingSatan:
As a man, a father and a grandfather. I have lived life to an extent and this is my view on this subject.

The previous thread was simple and concise, "Never marry a woman who has no means of income".

But that is the truth!

Gone are the days when people marry "Obiageri's" according to the Igbos.
Back then, things weren't this bad. Considering the family setting in those days, women had no other role than to cook, birth, raise children and clean the house.

So their parents prepare them for marriage, teach them how to cook, satisfy a man and raise children. They also spend alot of time grooming their hairs, taking care of their skin (Some parents send their children to fattening rooms) and waiting to get married.

When we got married, we married to keep them at home and show off to our friends. Only a few of us married because of love. Some of our partners were not our choice but our parents.

So when you marry, your wife and children should always reflect your wealth and networth. Most especially, YOUR WIFE.

I repeat, back then things were not this bad and everyone knew their roles.

But in today's world, so many things have changed.

Women should bring to the table as much as they expect from the man.

Raising children costs alot of money and shouldn't be the responsibility of the man alone.

So many marriages have crashed on the alter of poverty or "One stream of income".

We must learn to tell ourselves the truth always.

Back then, you don't spend so much to raise a child. If he or she wants to go to the community school or follow the white man's way of life, you send them as a punishment. But those humble and loyal sons, follow you to the farm and when they come of age, you give them farmlands and wives if possible. But that's not the case anymore.

Apart from formal education abroad, I also encouraged my children to learn sellable skills. One of my son is a fashion designer and that is what puts food on his table in the UK. His college degree only reflects on his call cards.

I told this to my children (Daughters inclusive) never to marry a man or woman who has no verifiable means of income.

Money is needed to run a home in the 21st century. Alot of money!

We no longer live in mud houses or drink from pots.

As for "Entitlement", I think every couple should have that mentality depending on the context.

The man is entitled to his wife's emotional commitment. She is his wife and this also applies to the man.

I am tired of typing.

To be truthful, i warned my son's against mingling with an average African woman. They simply don't want to know the truth. They hate the truth with Passion and that is why true feminism failed woefully here.

In the Diaspora, most men who want peace of mind avoid African women because of their "Entitlement Mentality" and how exploitative they are.

Many of these women don't work but enjoy proceeds of child support from numerous partners. You think it's a coincidence? No it not. It was deliberate.

They just want to seat at home, get fat, enlarge their butts and walk up and down the street like a pussy cat that resides in Buckingham Palace.

Should I talk about Nigeria, where you meet an average Nigerian lady and realise that;

1. She is a college graduate because a "Man" sponsored her in school (Both of them are no longer together as a couple).

2. She has a roof over her head because a "Man" made that available (She has no intention of marrying him).

3. She uses the best smartphone because a "Man" bought it for her (Just another random man).

4. She has clothes on her body because a "Man" gave her money for shopping (Obviously he is "One of those mugus".

5. She has food on her table because so many men send her money.

This same woman has no other skill but sexual skills. The only thing she can offer is "Sexual Intercourse", "Birthing Children" and "Companionship" but she expects the man to "Mark her birthdays with a brand new Escalade", "Buy her parents a new house and train her younger ones in school". Is that not exploitation?

This same woman hates her mother inlaw because she sees her as her rival. Anyway, women have always hated themselves from time immemorial, don't get moved when you see them shout in solidarity, it's just for a few seconds.

When asked about their contribution in the relationship or Marriage, some will say "I birthed children for him". But that's your natural default woman!

Even if you sleep with a sexually active mad man, you will get pregnant and birth for him.

Some will even say, "I satisfy him sexually. I gave him my body and soul". But that is same thing you did with your numerous ex lovers.

According to Pastor Sam Adeyemi, he said "If a woman does not help her husband financially, then how else does she want to help him".

In this age and time, it takes two adults who have a verifiable means of income to build a healthy family.


Cheers!

You nailed it absolutely man, but this your moniker get as e be o. I be wan follow you before but nah.

Back to the point, I am not married sha, but in as much as you said a 100% truth about the family life, there is something you did not add. In as much as we men expect our wife to support us financially by working, I think we should help them at home with shores - learning to cook when they are not around, assisting them in washing clothes ( i mean when they wash we can rinse with them in love), carrying baby sometimes ( not backing baby outside o, just helping her shaking baby to sleep while she works), fetching water for her e.t.c. We can do it with wisdom and love and increase in it when they are pregnant or not feeling too well. And the women should not taking it as a norm to "seeing the husband finish" and disrespect the man the day he did not do these shores. I mean, How can my wife be working and afer been stressed at work, i will allow only her to be working as a woman at home ? How una see am?

sorry your contribution here was not helpful at all. but I got something useful from another post

greenhulk:
Duh, una dey enjoy oh. 16k to be shared by 6 tenants. For my end na 13k plus Dem dey bring every month for just 2 bedroom apartment. Though we have steady light, sometimes 48 hours without it going off and when they take it off it's not ally back within 1-2 hours except occasionally when there's a general fault.

greenhaul, no think am o. the light no dey too dey like that o. but if them bring am e fit dey for like 2 or 3 days stable. but if them take am ehn, if fit take like 2 or 3 days again before you see light.

SUPERPACK:
No it is not standard. The standard procedure is to do load evaluation, meaning to calculate the total number of power consumed by each individual's appliances to know who consumes more electricity. This is best because the people on self contain might have more heavy energy consuming appliances more than the person renting the 3 bedroom.

Thank you so much. This will help to some extent. I am grateful once again.

super pack , thank you. I will try this.

modified

please super pack, I think this make sense. but is this this standard? do you have any source, I beg super pack reply, I beg.

please I do not know which section to place this. I had to post it here again. straight to the point

In my compound we have one ( 1 ) - 3 bedroom flat, two (2) - 2 bedroom flat, two (2) - self contain (I.e 1 room 1 parlour, bathroom and kictchen).

please how do we share a bill of #16 000 by percentage in a way that no one is cheated? Please who knows the maths or proportion to use.
I beg I need this to settle a serious dispute in the compound.

please o, I am sorry if this comment offend anyone. I hope some of these phones are not stolen. for those that are buying, please becareful and buy phone from a genuin owner with receipt. this is a very wrong time to get into trouble you did not bargain for. I will like to buy too, but to avoid "stories that touch" is it pay on delievery or what? as in, how is transaction done between people from different state?

Beverlyjean:
Keep comparing till u find what u are looking for... Men are validated by money, women are validated by body count... Once it's much , u loose value... I'll rather use a Love Machine than hv my future husband disrespect me cos of my body count...

I'm sure u were sure of ur exes as husbands but they are all gone and this one might tow the line as well...

Close ur legs to earn respect...trust me, it will pay in the end

Wow! Beverlyjean, Honestly, of all the comments I read up here, I am struck by an absolute truth you you just said up there. "Men are validated by money, Women are validated by body count" and dare say even more for women. If you don't mind, can I meet you? I sent a pm. You should accept.

Civid 19.. Aboki go still call am polio , typhod and malaria

Bill Gates and Melinda Foundation don't just speak without facts, they where the ones who invested their own money in putting a stop to polio that all most crippled a good percentage of northerners, they funded research, and personally travelled to affected African countries to inspect the distribution so as to avoid corruption, they where responsible for battling child birth mortality and many more, so when they speak they have facts

Its a shame when Bill Gate told Buhari to his face that his long term financial plan and budgeting was wrong and he should focus more on human capital development rather than infrastructure, many argued, ... again he advised more funding of WHO so as to help poor countries in Africa but people rather supported Donald Trump who thinks Africa is shithole, and has never spent a kobo in Africa

Now Melinda gates prediction is happening in Kano state and ironically Bill Gate had visited Kano State several times on request of Dangote

.

I do not know how you were able to gather so much likes for this comment. Because you actually spoilt every good thing you were saying in the third paragraph. "That Donald trump has not spent Kobo in Africa" - this statement of yours is why they will keep seeing Nigerian as a shithole. See how you sounded as if it is America's responsibility to make your country a better place for its citizens - A child blaming another man for the irresponsible family and father of his. Nobody will fix Nigeria for you. The US has its responsibility to cater for. All they can do is to assist a bit ( and even this assistance is based on their interest as a nation). And for your information, the world is tired of Nigerian citizens the way they are quiet and keep tolerating their corrupt leaders. The xenophobia in south Africa is a way of telling Nigerian leaders to go fix their country and that they are tired of Nigerians running away (in large numbers) to South Africa.

Until the masses arise to say enough is enough the other countries will keep watching and calling us derogatory names.

If we don't fix Nigeria, nobody will fix it for us.

Alex96:
We will work out how to pay the bills. He will have to pick up something either feeding or rent, while I cover clothing and maybe light bills. Lets be honest if a woman does not allow her man to care for her he is going to end up losing the essence of what it means to be a husband, father, lover. We are all humans prone to greed and selflessness, and monetary issues are very delicate subject within marriage

You are married I guess.

sfgrace:
Yes i will still ask him for money.He still has to contribute,no matter how little.A responsible man won't let his wife be the sole provider.

You are absolutely right my dear. Very tru

Thank you very much sir.

Billiebaba:
If you are want to learn, I'd advise you go to YouTube and you should have money to buy the expensive equipment and tools, in a month to months you will be ready to start accepting jobs.

Thank you sir. i will do this but ,Please, if you have more infoMarion on this do update me.

Point of correction please. You are not rooted in Christ, but in catholism. Meet one of your priest you trust for advise. I am sure you will get a good one from there. On this matter, I doubt if nairalnders can help you with advise ( if your story is true).

If you try that and it did not work. Then I strongly advise you start attending other churches where the gospel morals are preached and held at high esteem by many of their members. Your purpose of going there is to hear the word of God from a different perspective and seek the LORD Jesus, geniunely - do not go because of any other thing or one of their unfaithful members but to experience a real touch from God. Only Jesus has the power to change us totally. I do not know if you will attend, but I recommend the church, Lords chosen, deeper life bible church, MFM . If you are willing to change your character not because of your mother's pressure to marry then try and join one of those churches - you can start by attending their bible study in small group especially the one of deeper life church ( I am not condemning your church o - theire are still good people there). Trust me, someone was worst than you in this regard, what I just told you now help him and I am sure it will help you if you really want to change your ways.

Yes ! When they got tired of robbery and the evil of This one million boys, they stop to talk or rant on nairaland. Enough of the talk. They moved out enmass no matter the weapon the robbers carried, immediately they realised everyone, enmass has said A BIG NO, the robbers took to their heels.
This is what we need in Nigeria. Until we Nigerians (irrespective of tribe and religion) come out in unison just like this to tell our corrupt leaders in all levels that enough is enough, that we do not need old politicians again but young and proactive ones, to hold them accountable (enmass) for enbenzelled funds for development , that we need steady power supply within a specific time, nothing may change. Even the evil are afraid when the oppressed arise in one mind.

When we watch the channel National Geowild or animal documentary, We laughed at the hundreds of bulls and called them foolish (mumu) when only one lion or tiger catches one of their colleague and even ate their colleague in their midst, when they (the bulls in their hundreds if not thousands) are more than the lions and tiger in number, strength and voice. We call them foolish for looking on when their own colleague is butchered and eaten in their own very eyes.

How are we (Nigerians) different from these bulls in the way the country is treating its citizens for years. Am I instigating crisis, not at all. But there is an adage in Igbo land (I am not igbo by tribe) " When a man's chi (small idol) starts misbehaving, we show the chi the wood it was carved from". More like telling your irresponsible father or mother you cannot take their non sense any more.

We talk too much on nairaland about how bad the country is and corrupt the leaders are without doing anything. Lagosians have kept ranting about one million boys on nairaland for years but today they said enough is enough in action, enmass, irrespective of tribe or religion, political party, whether their brother or sister is among the one million boys or not ( they do not care) - all they care about is the peace and development.
The day the corrupt elite sees this in the masses you we will begin to experience some positive change in Nigeria. - that was how France started their progress to greatness.

Eulalia:
Seen.
Will get back soon

Alright

I have sent you a pm (email)

Good day nairalanders, please I need your help, advice, counsel and direction. I want to learn how to use car diagnosis machine to know how to trouble shoot cars and other vehicles. I like to know how to program car keys and other stuffs that are related. I am really looking for a good place to learn these. I am not a mechanic though - but I think I can do it. Please direct me sincerely.

That is, there is this computer they use to analyse or troubleshoot vehicle engines for faults. Where can I get a place to learn this?

I was just thinking about this BH & herdsmen terrorist in Nigeria two days ago. If the current administration was serious about crushing these guys, this is the best time (pandemic time of covid-19, the stay at home time) to do so. Now that everyone one is at home because of the covid-19 is best to strategically crush them once and for all. Because there is less movement now - which means the probability of killing innocent with the terrorist is very reduced, they are also very weak now because there may be less supply of food and amenities to them, the army can also easily trace their logistics routes easily now that there is no movement, they are also scared of the virus too because if it enters their camp they are done for - so they will be easy to attack now. And this is what Chardian soldiers are doing. Let our good youth in churches, mosque and else where arise and join polices more and rescue this country from these old men. Let us begin to act more, peacfully protest, go out more enmass to voice our pain. We talk, argue, blame, speak grammar too much at home and on NL too much. It is time we act - vote for credible young men and women who are not even in the two big party APC & PDP in Nigeria.
