aspabay:Don't get it twisted, OP. The picture was actually taken during her " tailoring graduation", the one we call "freedom" in naija language. Increase the brightness of your screen and you'd notice "SINGER" just directly behind her.... . I was there. |
Did you call 9ice a drop out? Yeye dey smell. Someone with foreign degree in Law. You obviously don't know zilch about him. Did it occur to you that could have been a typo of some sort? |
OP picture or its tale by moonlight. Can you remind me Ghana's population again, i mean total population comprising both human beings and livestock. Whats Lagos population? OP if you got a job in Nigerian bank and you're told you would be closing officially 8pm (time the bank closes to customers) ,would you accept the offer? You obviously don't know what it entails to be a BANKER, the Nigerian definition. |
4 days old and less than 65k miles? |
And she's proudly exposing her hairy cleavage and bosso.m. Doesn't she have any sense of decency? Normally, as a lady you don't need to reveal any part of your body before you can make a statement or before a man can find you attractive. Don't know why ladies unnecessarily expose their cleavage. Now, polluting our sight with that bushy pathway is a total turn off. Hian!! |
emiye:Bro, that 2k is not realistic for PHCN utility bill. Talking about complaining, I am talking of a personal experience here. There's nothing i haven't done . It used to be 13k monthly. I had personally written several letters to their Management. It became worse after the introduction of the new tariff. I have exhausted all my options. 2k might be enough for the prepaid meter, which i also doubt giving the fact she may want to always leave the deep freezer on to preserve her food. Car, i believe isn't a necessity, considering the fact she isn't with any flow of income. She could register for school bus to help transport the kids to and from school. To be paid with the sch fees. Remove the expenses spent on the car monthly(fuel & maintenance) and she'd be somewhat relieved. If the car had a major fault that would gulp like 70k to bring back to use and the man refused to send her money for the repair, wouldn't she ground the car and start living a life outside it? Given the condition of things or realities on ground, some things aren't just necessary. I am not advocating unnecessary hardship for a housewife, but my point is, she could comfortably manage that 50k. She just needs to cut her unnecessary expenses. If she was a single mother earning that monthly, would she give up the children for adoption? She should just let go of her ego. She should forget about the fact that she's a wife to a Man in obodo oyinbo. Her grouse may stem from the fact that she believes the guy is capable of doing more than that, now that he's refused to, why can't she just be grateful for the lil' she has and get her thinking cap on. She needs to stop depending on the man for her absolute care/upkeep. The earlier she realizes she has a role in sustaining her home, the better. Ok, what if the man in question suddenly stopped sending any money what would she do? As i earlier said, no amount is too small nor too much for upkeep. It all depends on your LIFESTYLE. There are several families under similar or worse circumstances, yet you can't see their children and categorize them as "ajepako". We may talk from now till eternity, it won't make the guy increase the money unless he's personally convinced to. In the mean time, she should just get her big bottom a job or biz to offset the bills. |
emiye:Heheheheh, bro where do you stay? PHCN-2K for where? I can't remember the last time i paid less than 8k for monthly PHCN "levy" (levy, cos even if you don't stay in that house for months they'd bring just same amount for you). That lady should sell that damn car. In Nigeria, cars are not meant to be owned by people without any flow of income. |
Jahblessme:The issue of the man spending 200k monthly when he came to Nigeria wasn't part of the original post and as such could not be used as a basis of our argument. Op only stated that later. We shouldn't forget she's a third party and may not be exclusively privy to such info. Its only what her friend told her she could be armed with. Her friend, presently, can be considered as a disgruntled housewife. It would not be entirely unexpected to see her lament about how much he spent on himself. Meanwhile in actual fact, it may may not have been "monthly" as alleged but just for the period he stayed . When you visit home after a very long time in naija, expect to spend something close to that amount. Unless you are going to hide yourself away from family and friends. It would almost be impossible for you not to be unavoidably lavish for the few moment you gonna spend. Especially if u be guy wey been dey always socialise and spend some time out in bars with couple of friends prior to your relocation to the states. Trust my naija peeps, throughout your stay here they'd open both "bar and office" on you. The lady should keep her cool. She should be grateful to God she's gat a responsible hubby. She should have a chat with her hubby on establishing a biz for her. . |
Fxwarrior:I totally understand your points. Every bits of it. 50k could be enough if she's clever in resourcefulness just like you. However, truth is there are some months that 50k won't just be enough, no matter how careful she tryna get. I guess you're still single(not married i mean), you'd agree with me sometimes we tend to helplessly go above board with our spending. Thats said, i believe the woman in question is living "my hubby dey yankee" lifestyle. For crying out loud, that 50k is some people's monthly salary here in Nigeria and they also have kids who you would never categorize as "ajepako". No amount can be too small or too much for upkeep regardless of number of kids involved. It all depends on your kinda person. She should get a job to ease it off abeg. FX, it seems you're an Economist. I would really want to see from you a detailed list of how 50k can be wisely utilised by mother of two in a month. You may help some spendthrift to a change of heart. FynBabe:What's wrong with 200naira fish? If thats what she can comfortably afford, why can't she make do with that instead of lamenting. Who's gonna know how much fish is in her soup? Pls you ladies should learn to cut your cloth to your size. The mistake bunch of our ladies out there make is they see marriage as competition, always wanting to outdo themselves. The guy may be out there hustling day and night in unfavorable conditions just to make ends meet. Lets learn to be supportive partners. |
So you're Al-makura? You couldn't even successfully fake a hausa accent. Thought you would defy all warnings not to reveal yourself. Was thinking you've gat the balls. Btw, thats so CHILDISH! |
amanabon:Are you for real? You mean the "car" up there is expensive at that amount? Could you please refer me to a cheaper one and how much do you think it should be? At op, is it ex-l? |
manuelzz:Where did you all see this "alert on bbm" you all are talking about? Thats bb10 as you rightly said and that should be message displayed from bb hub. What is it with Nigerians always wanting to beg about. For crying out loud there are several things (biz, odd and sharpsharpjobs) you could do to get that money aside begging online. You have money for bb10 device but not enough money to get the lapy. He only wanted the limelight and as well could have thought its a great avenue to selfishly enrich himself. Perhaps he thought the doroboss would give him 1m. |
manuelzz: |
Rejected? Were they the one convicted?how can they now reject it? Not that i support the verdict though, but i think EU's perception is inconsequential at this level. My heart goes out to those brave soldiers, however I pray and believe they'd give them a lesser sentence, even though DHQ has said no going back. |
koife:Ahahahahahh i don die, Guy look your back, na same bus we dey. Nor be you be that guy wey dey press one tecno phone, wey buy 100naira egg and gala for Ore wey don dey fart since for bus? |
Op is it not up to 10? Make it ten and change the subject accordingly, provided you wrote this so as to be on the front page like every other "Ten types of......." By the way, nairalanders watch out for my own "Ten types of TEN TYPES OF this - and-that trending on nairaland" (yea, whatever that means, you read it correctly, not a tautology). |
Another anti-Rochas thread again just to cast aspersions on his person and disparage his administration. This only point to one thing: like GEJ and Obaino, the Rochas dude must be active. Damn! People can only go this extra mile when you're percieved as an obvious and worthy threat. This explains why people don't bother to do such for Orji. This also explains the throng of anti-Jagaban threads per seconds on nairaland . |
“You can see that as Obi left the partyJeez! Comparing a political party to house of God. This guy must be high on ohmpa SK combo. By the way, where do our polithiefians always get these imaginary figures from. How come Obi's exit mysteriously led to 7,000 increment in the camp of our beloved APGA, within how many days? I pity die-hard suppoters of all these thieves. Support them at your own peril. Dem nor send you. The only thing that matters is self aggrandizement. |
Double post |
There's a similar thread already in same section titled https://www.nairaland.com/1937617/7-types-lecturers-find-college#26947736 Wait oooo, what is it with nairaland and " TheModified : I could see the op has already included some of my points. Quote Above copied from my contribution on the aforementioned thread. |
Wait oooo, what is it with nairaland and " The types of........" I think its high time i created a thread on " The types of threads you see on nairaland " OP, You missed those categories below 8 ) THE NEVER-TOO-LATE : Those ones who wouldn't come to class till few days to exam and once they get to the class, they would want to ensure they teach the whole syllabus within that few days and also give you assignment, which, in some cases may serve as assessment. These are set of either lazy-ass lecturers or those ones on a course in a far-away institution. Most cases , its when their HOD beckons on them for the submission of their students assessment that they would quickly rush down to class. Some of them would make you come to class even on sundays. 9) THE ONCE-I-ENTER, YOU DON'T : These are lecturers that consider themselves highly principled. You don’t dare even stealthily dash in to the class once they are in. If you live afar off and this man gets to class before you, just be so ready to dedicate the whole period of the man's class hanging out with a cute chick outside the hall. The greatest mistake you could do is walk majestically into the class while he's there. Ol' boy, the way those kind of lecturers go use you wash that day and even send you out nor go be am. Some of them take attendance immediately they get in,verify the attendance after each lectures. Like a chemical equation, numbwr of students the time he got to the class must equal to number of students as he prepares to leave. If dem born you well make your name dey the list make you nor come dey class as im dey call am. 10) THE "TESTMANIA" : These are set of lecturers who always give out test, either midway or the end of each lectures. Its not a choice. Its a must. They don't joke with it. The most annoying thing being that ; some of them that do engage in such are those categories of lecturers whom one may consider as not too professionally sound (na only theory wey dem sabi from school dey their head). surprisingly, some of them may be 1st class graduate but inexperienced in art of education, hence the possibility of not grasping the topic till you self-educate yourself only after the class. |
kessgreen:Bros, kindly google the meaning of bomb for proper understanding of the word. Thanks. |
OP, can you remember this song by Fela feat UB40? "some have food but are lamenting , some are lamenting cos they gat no food, you have food and you're sulking.......................... " Complete the remaining. |
osites:That guy own too much. Thanks for bursting his bubbles. See him on this thread as as well trying hard to justify his overpriced vehicles https://www.nairaland.com/1933287/2007-mercedes-maybach-62-price . I want to believe he's not really into car sales, probably just privileged to have someone into it and he believes he could create a thread about some of the cars he heard about, to sample people's reaction. It coud so be he is an agent, unreasonably inflating it. I may be wrong though. |
HUNGER GAMES or whatever its called. Sometimes you'd just wish you had spent that your few hours watching such a meaningless movie on a more interestingly "meaningless" activity. I just don't understand the motivation behind the movie. So uninteresting and uninspiring. I would have said its for kids, but hey! whats in it for kids to enjoy by the way. Funny enough, its a Box Office success. |
Oga, did you use tecno phone to snap the interior? You could have done a better job though. Get a better camera and upload more fascinating pictures of the interior plus the engine. |
Highly predictable! Quick to deny, quick to churn out fallacies all in the name of boosting morale. If only the boko animals could capture these ogas who seat at the comfort of their office, dish out atrocious orders and deny their fallen compatriots. If only they could be made to suffer same fate like this our brave men, then we Nigerians would also make statement denying them to be Nigerians. Esp this Lai Muhammad's cousin called Olukolade. This guy paid the supreme price, i would rather no statement was made at all than denying this. I can only imagine how his family would be feeling right now, most importantly that the death of their son, father, brother, cousin was instead of being celeberated as a hero he was, but denied he was no1. Brother, we Nigerians recognise and appreciate your contribution and the supreme price you paid towards making Nigeria a safe place for all. May your death never be in vain and may the good Lord comfort the bereaved. |
APContherun: That GEJ and PEJ (God bless their souls) do nothing about the insults they receive everyday doesn't make it right. Not everyone takes kindly to insults. That Amaechi is a journalist doesn't give him the right to defame Mbu's name, he should have chosen his words carefully.Bro, kindly educate me. When does calling someone "controversial" become libellous or defamatory? According to English dictionary : Controversial means Arousing controversy—a debate or discussion of opposing opinions. While controvery : con·tro·ver·sy\ˈkän-trə-ˌvər-sē, British alsokən-ˈträ-vər-sē\noun1 : a discussion marked especiallyby the expression of opposing views We all don't and can't share same school of thoughts, hence possibility of disparity in views. If you and I don't always agree on some discourse for instance, you can decide to label me a contoversial man. It doesn't make me one. Now Taking it personal is what makes me truly "controversial". |
shift15: I think it is Madam Ezikwesile that needed the Democracy 101 tutorial from Mbu this time around.If this is democracy then i guess that of United state is crazydemo. You don’t watch Fox news, MSNBC et al and see how they criticize, mock and do all sorts of parody about their public officers? Well, i think he just did the right thing. What he ought to have done in the first place. Let the court decide if its a crime. If i were the guy, i would also sue him for unlawful detention for days i spent there to the tune of hundred of millions. He should employ Femi Falana or Festus. By the way, i thought someone once claimed on Another thread the Amaechi guy to be a pro-GEJ who also promoted his agenda on political platform. |
I saw one that looks like nairaland renowned "ogakpatakpata". |
DonaldGenes: Just heard this now on NigeriaInfoPh by Kofi Bartel that Gov Amaechi was arrested,some say invited by MBU and was kept in a room or whatever without no policeman interrogating him for saying MBU is a politician or so, can't remember in exactitude what But let me confirm first..Amaechi, an AIT reporter/presenter. |
