Funny enough I have several Ukrainian friends currently living in Ukraine and they are not racists.

We have racists and tribalists among every single people in this world. So, you should not use the actions of a few to judge the whole.

Even here in Nigeria and on Nairaland we have very toxic tribalists who denigrate other tribes every single minute and they are proud of it.

If you point one finger at others, just remember that at least three other fingers are pointing back at you.

I was very delighted to see a Hollywood actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, become the governor of a US state as rich as California State.

Apparently, the best our Nollywood actors have been able to do is Lagos State House of Assembly, Desmond Elliot. I thought KOK was even serious about going to the House of Reps at some point.

Why don't they forward a report of all nollywood movies they use real gun.

Hi fellow nairalanders. With much respect for every member reading. commenting. Or making suggestions towards my bitter pass experience is highly welcome. And with so much regard I'll really appreciate your contributions. pls pardon my typing errors. Without much ego. I was born and raised in a border town called gamboru ngala borno state. A town deeply affected by the insurgency for almost a decade. b4 the insurgency life was going perfectly fine for our family of seven. Untill the insurgency surface. Gradually things started going left side for us. before then I was doing great in school. My mum always proud of me and I had promised her that I'm going to be a great journalist in the future. till this day my dream was never fulfill. Cause you don't know what tomorrow brings. Had I know my future then. I wouldn't have promised her. I was in SS2 when Boko Haram invaded our school and burnt it down to ashes with no documents to retrieve. We were Left out school for months with no hope going back to school insight. I will never forget that frightening day in my life when Boko Haram invaded the town in their hundreds on vehicles and some on motorcycles shooting sporadically at anybody on sight. They burnt gamboru international market and carted away millions of naira goods. And my dad shop is also burnt. Nothing left for him to fend for the family needs. Soon aftermath of the incident he was diagnosed with diabetic and hypertension till this date he's on sick bed for nearly 9 years. unable to walk or stand on his toes for 2 years now things is always getting worse for him. troops had been sent to protect the vulnerable people of the town. For weeks Boko Haram keeps penetrating and eager to capture the town. We flee to Cameroon and we left all our belonging behind and is the only option. We had been in refugee camp for months. thanks to UNICEF redCross and some NGO's for providing food and shelter for us. Unfortunately We lost one our aunty to decease related to colerhea while in The camp. Nigerian government provided free transport to evacuate it's citizen back to the country. I used this opportunity also join the traveling party. Altough I left mum dad who is sick and my siblings at the refugee camp. My mission is to come and hustle here in Nigeria. After we arrived in Yola I refused to stay in the camp. I proceeded my journey to one the northwest state. There I started struggling doing minial jobs and sending my parents money taking care of them and finally I relocated them to adamawa state. Now God bless my business with lucrative income. Am now financially stable paying my siblings school fees. I also sponsor my immediate younger sister into polytechnic the two younger ones are still in secondry school while our last born in primary 5. Am shouldering all of my parents responsibilities as a first born. Now that am financially stable and my business permit me to go back to school. Because I have a free time to study that's why I want to use this opportunity to go back to school. PLS TAKE NOTE l AM 28 YEARS OLD, our home is burnt by the insurgency we lost everything even my mom's school certificates and some of my dad documents too My primary school certificate is also affected and I couldn't complete my secondary school due to the insurgency. Experts in the house pls what should I do. Am desperately in need of going back to school. But honestly speaking I have no certificate to prove that I hav attended any school. Whenever am alone I always cry when I see some of my childhood friends who have the privilege to further their education graduated with Bsc and some as far as Msc. I know suicide is not an option for me. pls your contributions is welcome. Thanks

Hello nairalanders,

Please I will want you all to read this. though I am not a good writer. I rented an apartment somewhere on the Lagos island. We are just 4 in the compound. When I parked into my apartment my wife came with a pregnancy but we lost the baby when she gave birth to the boy. The following year she got pregnant again, The baby also died the day she gave birth. I am not a religious person but my wife is closer to God. She has been telling me about this compound but I just don't have any reason to think or suspect anything.

Lemme tell you in my compound if one of us is working the others will lose there job. I have no reason to be suspecting anything untill I heard that one of the tenants is owning our landlord 2 years rent and our landlord didn't raise voice. In this Lagos that I know landlord don't joke with house rent. Our landlord don't bother us for rent. Sometimes I will be the one sending the house rent to him without him even asking.

I also heard that was the same thing that happened to previous occupants. They lived there without paying for many years and the landlord didnt disturb them.

I won't say our live is better in this house. We are just struggling to survive. Currently I am the only one working while others don't have a job. I am beginning to doubt if our landlord is truly a generous man as we do called him, since he don't bother us for rent.

My wife have lost two pregnancy in this house. I have been jobless many times in this house. I honestly need people opinion on this matter.

Is this house diabolic or the landlord is just a generous man

I have to create this thread after reading through the topic on front page asking for jobs/professions that will make you not to marry someone.

So, I'm talking to this Unizik student that's studying medical radiography. Everything was going well. She even told me that she has told her mother about me and all. We met on Facebook and she's already asking to see me in person.

Until the day she found out that I use my car for Uber/Bolt business, everything changed. This girl stopped talking to me.

She has never been to Lagos and does not know how Uber works. She was asking how much I earn in a day, and that hope the Uber is not like their normal school cab that charge 100 naira per person, bla bla bla.

Well, I just don't want to let her know my net worth. I don't do Uber full time. I work on Fiverr and because sales dropped there, I decided to use Uber to make up for the income. I also do academic research for foreign students. Etc. I am into a lot of stuffs that fetch me nothing less than 400k a month so I don't think I should be regarded poor.

My house in the East is at roofing level. I am almost completing the payment of 4.5 million for a land I'm purchasing at Mowe, I own my car plus another Sienna I bought when Fiverr was booming.

I have a masters degree. So, should a girl reject me because I use my car to drive on Uber?

I am just laughing at her ignorance. The other time, we were talking and I jokingly asked her why she's putting on make up, and she was like, so she can find better suitors.

I thence assume I am not a better suitor because to her, I'm poor. This is someone earning 8k per month in the school that she was teaching during ASUU strike.

I wonder why women are impatient when it comes to taking decisions and that's why most of them regret later.

I am supposing being a medical student makes this girl think she deserves someone better than just a cab driver.

LOL.

The shareholding structure of the Port is as follows: The Lekki Port Investment Holding Inc. (international consortium) owns 75% (China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd 52.50%, Tolaram 22.5%), the Lagos State Government owns 20% while Nigerian Ports Authority owns 5%.


What kind of math is this? All the percentage put together is supposed to be 100% who wrote this na? This is the more you look the less you see😭😏
