Is never too late just come back to Jesus,ask him to take u back,he is just and faithful to forgive us our sins,with this heaven is sure by his grace

You are still in a mental cage. There is no heaven or hell. It was a tool used by your colonial masters to steal your lands and compel slaves into obedience. They used the carrot and stick technique to amass control. It's already old, and now we expect you to use critical thinking to understand the scam. Unfortunately, many like you a deeply indoctrinated that there is no longer hope for you. It's a pity.

Hello family, my elder brother has decided to be totally useless. He doesn't want to do anything. Just idling around and eating mama thank you. At age of 49 he is yet to get married. The only thing he does is pressing his phone from morning till night. He is a popular person here. He spends his entire time on this forum. Our aged parents are extremely worried about this unwanted development. Everyone in both our immediate and extended family have talked to him about getting any job but he is stubbornly rejecting every help offered to him. Pls house, what's the best way to go about this. He is my elder brother and I don't want him to end up useless for life.

Your brother is already useless. I will blame your parents for making him too comfortable by feeding him. If hunger deal with him, nobody will tell him to look for work, even if it's construction work. The only justification is if he's disabled.

Purvan:
Hey fellow Nairalanders!

I just had the most amazing experience, and I had to share it with you all. So, as you know, I work in IT, and I'm always surrounded by computers and coding languages. Recently, I decided to embark on a thrilling endeavor: teaching my lovely grandma how to code!

You might be thinking, "Purvan, are you crazy?" Well, maybe a little, but let me tell you, it was an absolute blast! Picture this: my sweet grandma, armed with a cup of tea and an undying curiosity, sitting beside me as I introduced her to the world of programming.

At first, I thought it would be like explaining quantum physics to a goldfish, but boy, was I wrong! Grandma embraced the challenge like a pro! We started with the basics, and I could see her eyes light up as she discovered the power of loops and conditionals. It was like watching a flower bloom.

Lies... Looks like something that was written by chatGPT with a little editing. Prove me wrong with a picture of your grandma doing the coding. You don't have to show her face. Surrounded by coding languages indeed.

Even those that have parents are living like orphans. As long as you are an adult, you are on your own. Hustle.

taylor89:
Blood go flow

Even this one that looks like an ape is talking. If you don't look like a model, gays are not even seeing you. So don't worry, nobody will approach you.

pocohantas:
Food and water is show off? Blame your government for this mentality, not me.

If it's not show off, then what is it? Aren't you aware that 100m Nigerians are in poverty? What is the purpose of this thread?

WriterNigg:
If it ain't broken, don't fix it.

This clown will kill Twitter with his senseless rules & greed.

This is actually good in my opinion. It will stop doom scrolling, so you can focus on your life. Unlike other social media platforms that wants to keep you stuck on their platform from morning till night. Elon is doing great with this move.

chukkystar:
bro forget that guy, na ungrateful person. Even if person give 1 Naira U suppose appreciate cos na the person sweat. If e easy to fish or give fish why him never do am. People are like that, they can't see beyond their own front

That's why most rich people prefer to roll with fellow rich people, to avoid situations like this.

Villa12:
he probably not the enemy. Why would you have a friend and you are doing pretty fine but your friend is struggling with life and you aren't move to help him out? Are you sure he's your friend? If you didn't show interest in helping him and he asked you to help him out, i personally see no crime in asking. That's not an entitlement. You're his friend. Unless you say NO to his request then it's normal for him to let you be and look elsewhere

Do you know the kind of work he does? What if he's a ritualist? Even if he introduces him to what he does, what guarantee does he have that he too will be successful? He expects his friend to help him. That's entitlement. How many people send their friends money these days? Yet he is here calling him a frienemy, trying to paint him bad on a public forum. Someone who sent him 50k for upkeep oooh. Imagine.

Islandboi:
Chioma goofed big time the moment she dropped out of school. She thought she has found a big fish in the music industry.

Imagine if she graduated from school and focus to be a career woman, she won’t be a laughing stock right now. I’m even more pissed she’s from my state. Nothing last forever. I guess she learnt her lesson now.

You must be a joke. Do you know how many graduates that are on the street? Chioma is now an influencer. With or without Davido, she has established herself. She can never be poor again.

helinues:
Keep your friends close, enemies more closer.

I only set boundary after the incident, you can't trust such kind of people but at the same time, how many people do you want to toss away for offending you?

I'd rather stay alone than be close to an enemy. I actually enjoy my own company much better. Friends are overrated.

EMMARNUEL:
Na wa o... I had this friend that was so rich, i asked him to put me along make i de like am even if its in the long run... Nigga would rather send me 50k for upkeep than show me how to fish, i begged him on several occasion but it was futile, then i new he was a frienemy..

You have an entitlement mentality and you need to work on that. Your friend doesn't owe you anything. How many people have you given 50k for upkeep? You are the frienemy.

Chno:
The only friend i get na my weed, because na only weed dey for me when everybody switch up on me

Weed will Bleep you up big time. The first year of smoking is often fun. Then after 3 years, 4 years, 5 years, you realise that you are not even getting high anymore, but keep doing it out of habit. And when you try to stop but can't, that's when you understand what addiction is.

helinues:


We were 5 in a group working together, 2 of us planned side deal, the other guy was caught, and then he turned everything on my head that it was only my initiative, I didn't even argue, accepted all the blames.

Learnt a lot from that actually, I never raised the matter with the guy after cos i wasn't even around when the kasala burst, we still talk today self. Imagine a decade old story

Such friends are those who prepare someone for better future. For the fact you have known their motives, they can't hurt you anymore

You still have resentment because you never confronted him, and still interact with him as if it never happened, knowing fully well that he is not a friend. What does that say about you? Are you a people pleaser? I can't give someone a seconds of my time again the moment they failed me. That's the end.

PerfectStranger:
It's always better when both friends are winning.

But as life no balance,one person will be winning and the other isn't. There's bound to be envy wich most times is normal.

You can be jealous, but envy is not normal. You can kill because of envy. Better work on yourself if you are the envious type. It's not normal.

Fjsc:
Is it not obvious that many Africans born with poverty mentality? Preferred to live in their poverty than follow what will help them. Instead of you to humbly request for proof and see how it's done you are talking to discourage Yourself. This has always been the issues with Nigerians especially. Talk yourself out of low mindsets

You haven't even helped yourself, but you are looking for someone to help. You are nothing but a fake guru looking to take advantage of gullible people to enrich yourself. I came from poverty, and today I run a successful business that offers real value to people. I have met numerous fake gurus like you. I can spot them miles away. My advice, stop deceiving people.

Cassandraloius:
Perhaps she was thinking she will be at that age forever, young and foolish. Mtcheew...
Thank God for her life, she's now a mom with some sense.

The way you people open mouth to judge people eeeh, people will think you have never made a mistake in your life, as if you were born with all wisdom and knowledge.

SIMPonPatrol:
As beauty no matter make you go marry very ugly wife

You probably need to attend an English class. I never said beauty doesn't matter, I am stating a fact that it does.

Sirchiboy:
Oya let us go there

Of course. First you have to be attractive, or perhaps have an obvious big bulge that's irresistible.

Kobicove:
I don't think it has anything with humans being shallow, it's just a fact of life.

For instance if you own a hotel or any form of hospitality or tourism organisation your business would be better represented if you put an attractive person at the front desk/reception vs using a person who is not so visually appealing individual

That fact of life is that humans are shallow, ruled by what they see.

What is this? Is he singing with water in his mouth?

CandidAdmin:
Man in black. You look goooood tho.

Question of the day - Would this man regime be better than BAT or Buhari?

Check my siggy.

He couldn't even organise a competent legal team, and he wants to fix Nigeria. 8 years as governor of Anambra, what did he achieve?

My friend create content and let real people follow you. Using bots will not get you anywhere.

Try domainking.ng

Believe it or not, appearance comes first irrespective of where you are in the world.

If you are ugly, sorry is your name cause you will suffer.

Not just in relationship, but in your career. That's the sad truth, cause humans are shallow.

FRONT PAGE PLACEMENT ON NAIRALAND

Dear Nairalanders, I hope you're all doing well. I have a question that has been on my mind and I believe many of you might have wondered about it too.

I have been sharing sports news on Nairaland with the hope of getting them featured on the front page. However, despite my efforts, I haven't been able to achieve this.

This situation has led me to wonder whether there is a specific process or requirement for achieving front page placement. I mean, do I need to grease some palms, bribe the almighty moderators, or empty my piggy bank to get my articles on that front page? I’m just joking. But in all seriousness (well, sort of), I'd greatly appreciate your expert guidance on this matter. Is there a secret underground payment system involved? Do i have to pay a fee?


And if this is the case, I would appreciate some guidance on the process and any rules I should follow.

Additionally, I would be grateful if anyone could inform me about the moderators responsible for selecting front page content. If there are specific individuals overseeing this, I'd like to know how I can contact them to understand the selection criteria better.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Gold bless you

Create posts that incites tribalism and it will hit frontage.

Snake threads are also known to always hit front-page, but I'm not certain anymore since lalasticlala has been fired as a mod.

Cook up stories that never happened, especially stories from personal angles that aims to seek advice or help.

It's easy to hit front-page once you understand the kind of posts that creates engagement.

Creating news thread wouldn't get you there, as there are lots of bloggers doing the same, and it seems Suen and his mods already have their news casters.

Vinnie2000:
Despite being a Wizkid fan, I agree with you.👍

Baba dey force himself to speak in American style.😕

Same with Burnaboy.

But It's because he is Based abroad diz days Unlike Davido that is in Naija Fully.🤨🙂

He is forcing himself. If he keeps faking it, he might finally develop a real accent. Whatever rocks his boat.

N3TRAL:
I stopped reading after the opening sentence in bold 😂.

Those that have won millions, give them six months and they are back to square one. She's right.

You know that Nigeria is finished when a rapist can boldly come out to narrate his raping experience. In a sane country he will be traced and jailed for life. Whether the story is fiction or not wouldn't matter after this detailed confession.
