Please NLs advice me, I am serving my Oga what we Igbo people call (Igba boyi) now I am saving his money mostly from profit, I want to use the money to start my business when I am settled and it has reached 1.3m but my mind is telling me to show him the money while the other mind is telling me not to show him the money.
Please advice me on this.
Start putting the money back into your oga business small small as profit again and save yourself unnecessary explanations since your oga is a good man.

I hope Obaseki wife si going around too. Dont underestimate the power of women o.
They just glossed through the phone messages for transaction alerts to know the bank tied to the number.
Someone foolish enough to store their bank ATM card details on their phone for online transactions can easily be duped as the bank pin can be deduced from date of birth DDMM as most people use their birth date and month as their pin.
Bvn is a public document just like your car liscence plate and can not be used to get your pin just as your car plates can not be used to start your car.
These boys are not singing well on how they got access to the pin
You are right it's because people dont know how important these bank details are, sometimes I see people displaying their bank details on social media whenever they hear giveaways. If you need hundred bank details just say first 20 people will get 5k each...
The Ibadan police way of collecting bribe is something else, they have turned it to duty, right from challenge to Gate you will see them at every bus stop, I pity those guys, they will pay in the morning and afternoon.
I never liked the idea of storing BVN or account number on the phone. If you must do please store it in such a way that if your phone is stolen nobody can understand it. Secondly the idea of getting your BVN by simply sending sms with a code is another problem. The bank needs to come up with one secret questions to curtail some of these things.
thesicilian: To be frank I don't blame FFK for reacting the way he did, though he took it too far. Some journalists deliberately ask you annoying, almost insulting question just to have something sensational for their bosses.
When you invite press you need to be ready for any kind of questions, its FFK attitude I hope you have seen the Zamfara press conference.
What a shame, the mumu masses never saw the need to ask Ganduje who is a muslim to allow himself to be judged by sharia law or they cannot demand that their politicians must allow sharia court to prosecute any of them found wanting. One of the moments in my life that I am not proud to be a Nigerian.
Localchampion: I'm really confused about my boyfriend if hes worthy of getting married to. We are in a long distant relationship, we hardly see, sometimes thrice in a year, but I believe the reason we are still together is because its a distant relationship, as each time I go to Enugu to greet him and stay for 2weeks, my love for him is always reduced. So much this time around, we haven't seen for a year, and I had something important to do in Enugu, so I decided to stay in his place and use the opportunity to greet him. The first 4days, we were totally fine with each other, as I was busy with doing the stuff I came to do. Meanwhile, I didn't spend his money, as I came with my money and give him money to buy me food, so for the first 3days he was the one buying the cooked foods we ate, but I would give him 1k. Naturally, I don't eat outside, nor do I eat junks, but because he said he doesn't have money, I just pitied him and did not mention the fact that he should get foodstuffs, I don't want him to start feeling bad that he has no money plus I was even busy, remember I came for a purpose. And I don't use it as attitudes for him, I'm a very happy enduring lady.
Now after the fourth day that I finished the program I originally came for, I lost my money, about 150,000, truth is when I'm sad, im usually harsher, and would not talk much, would become exessively quiet, because if I talk, I may start to cry, this is when problem started between us, he acted unconcerned about my predicament, I just ignored him, trying to see how I can get back my money. And the truth is, if I get the money, I will surely give him part of the money, there's no time I will make money and not give him. So for like two days, I was in depression due to my money, I didnt sweep, I was just sighning, and not cheerful to him, the next day afterwards, was when he bursted, and started talking 1. He said I'm useless to him 2. He compared me with other people's girlfriend, how they take care of their boyfriend, how they cook for them, cook extremely homey food for them. 3. He said his friends couldn't visit him because I'm in his house, and thus hes missing because the fact that I'm in his house I'm useless, not doing anything for him, and yet his friends couldn't come. 4. He said his cousins girl did this and that. 5. He said I'm talking of marriage, he said what is he marrying, he said when I'm not even showing any readiness bla bla bla 6. He said I should look at his house, does it look like a girl is there, he said his friend told him that since I'm around now, his cheeks would become bigger, and in his mind, he knew he would only grow thinner. 7. He said I should leave his house first thing tomorrow morning, since I'm not useful. 8. He said at this point, hes confused, if i want to break up, I should just let him know, because what is the point of our stay together He said just too many hurtful things and those are the ones I could remember. I was able to record some of those things, so I can relisten to them later. But he collected my phone and deleted all I recorded.
All through, I was just quiet and smiling because I don't even know where to start replying him and he was very serious, his face was in a fight mood, I don't wanna talk because I really don't like problems or fight. Then later, he said I must say something, he seized my phone, and almost made me loose a deal.
I just kept quiet, later when I started talking, he denied having said USELESS, something he mentioned more than twice and apologized swiftly.
All his accusations were wrong because the reason I didn't cook is because he has no single food at home and hes the one always complaining he has no money, so I just taught that, I wouldn't make my stay to disrupt his life, he knew I hate eating outside, and the fact that we buy food is something I am enduring, because the foods makes me nauseated each time I eat them. He knows how much i cook for him when he comes visiting me, I will cook several things, what I can't even eat myself due to financial problems, I am the one always fighting him to cook that Junks are unhealthy. But just because I was pitying him, I didn't bring up the idea of cooking, he accused me of being useless, he said I'm the one to bring up the idea as a girlfriend, bla bla bla.
Later that day, I brought the idea and he gave me 5k to the market, I cooked and did everything. I didn't buy a single food I could eat (I don't eat pasters), because the money isn't enough, so I just bought foods he likes and made a nice sauce. His friend came visiting, I packed foods for her and did normal. His friend called him to relate how I treated her, this is when my boyfriend started filling extremely happy, and thanking God for meeting me, saying nice things.
Since then, he has been saying stuffs of how much he's been gifted to have me bla bla bla, to me, whatever I have for him has greatly reduced, because I don't know the Essence of the relationship, because to him, its a roleship, where I must do my roles and if I miss, he won't even think why could I have missed it, if its intentionally, was it because I'm sad, the next thing he would be saying is if we should break up or not. Now, this is someone I never compared with anyone, I don't even compare people, I just do normal to him, like I will do to a brother, plan for him, etc, yet he compares me all the time and wants me to live like the other average girls that are using iphones.
I told him yesterday that since he wants a roleship, he would also man up, and for the first time in our 5years relationship, I started behaving like the normal girls, I asked him for money to make my hair, he doesn't have, I asked him for money for cream, he doesn't have and he has been angry because I told him I don't care whether he has money or not, since I must do my roles, he should also do his roles, and for the first time I also compared him and told him what men are doing for their girls.
He has been frowning and sad since I said those words to him, because they are deep, I just served him exactly what he did to me. I'm not happy, I'm doing that to him, I'm even sad I'm telling him all these because this is not me. I'm still going to make him realize how useless he is in my life, absolutely useless, and that is the truth, since he sees our relationship as a role one, then hes useless.
I can't marry him like this, God forbids, someone who can't endure due to the situation of things and understand, and he wants me to understand his own and endure for him, its not just possible for me, and he's good at talking, abusing, bullying, etc. Hes the one that will tell me to snap pictures for him, I will tell him I don't have clothes, he will say ''Go and Buy now'', He will bully me with my hair and compare it with that of other girls. He wasn't broke before the lockdown, but I didn't collect money from him because I want him to achieve and grow with the money, so that by the time we get married, he would be financially very okay.
Please should I marry this kind of Man? I really don't know why I should because it seems his happiness towards me, his affection and romance is dependent on fulfilling ROLES in his head.
Explorers: A Japanese designer has unveiled transparent public toilets with glass walls that become opaque when they are occupied.
Acclaimed architect Shigeru Ban came up with the idea which he said was intended as a practical way to allow users to check for cleanliness as well as whether the toilet was occupied or not.
rabzy: Possibly, but most times what you are expected to do to claim that right are not expensive, maybe just to buy the cloth to wrap the dead body. You would be expected to entertain people and of course your siblings are expected to contribute but they won't disinherit you because you can't entertain the guests. What if you are the only son, would they give your house to a kinsman because you don't have money. Like I said women can inherit the father's properties, there might be a few places where this is not the case.
rabzy: You need to look at how villages where structured then, what challenges they faced and how it is addressed. The houses makes up the clan and the clan makes up the village. Each house head is a decision maker, these decisions are made in the respective associations and age group, there are age groups that makes war decisions, there those that prepare for war and fights the war. If the woman inherits the house, that house is effectively cut off, she can't join in the decision making, neither can she mobilize her sons for war, her children are not from that village, they might even be from the enemy's place. When the woman marries, he goes to his husband's place, the house will no longer count as a force in the clan. The house would collapse Most cultures in the world do not give women the right to inherit titles of their father or to be the head of their house. Many of the reasons might no longer be tenable, so necessary changes are acceptable to ease everyone's suffering.
We pray the law will help to make those changes at least to some extent.
EgusiShankly: I think it varies among clans.I am from Owan. The first male child gets the house but every other property is shared between siblings.
I know but my point is that it's a culture that relegated females, why not the first child instead of being gender bias. Imagine how you will feel if you are the firstborn but a female or a situation whereby the first wife had 4 girls and the man decided to marry another wife that eventually had a son.
Benin. The first son takes possession of the house or houses where the father lived before his demise. Note that it does not matter if the first son is the last born.
Esan own be say a woman is not even entitled to anything just like in the East.
rabzy: This is not true, if the first son performs the burial rites , then he can inherit hereditary titles and the house where the father lived and died. If the man has no sons, then the eldest daughter inherits the house but not the title. The title goes to the next of kin of the man. Any other property would be shared amongst the children not male and female. Any child born out of wedlock who is not known in the household i.e whose mother did not cook for the man in the house is disinherited, but the son is brought into the house and the man affirms that he is his son, then he can get inheritance. You can also not disown a known son without performing some rites.
Now let's reason this together, if the first son is the last born then he takes over the house even if that's the only house. If the first son is the first born and he is not rich enough to do the burial alone he loses out. Its not only in the East that marginalisation of women is going on, its happening in Esan land too. I know its culture and it has caused a lot issues between families.

This is not different from the marginalisation of women in the East, infact Edo marginalised a poor first son. I know its culture and it has caused a lot issues between families.
Maginalising women for over a century in the name of culture, any culture that doesn't have human face all over Nigeria must be abolished. Another one is that of Edo that gives everything to the first son, imagine that.
ItsTerah: I know I'm going to get alot of insults from you guys and that's why I didn't use my original Nairaland account for this, but please hear me out and give me good advice.
I'm the kind of girl that doesn't love easily. I don't think I've ever fallen in love before. I have dated just one guy and I broke up with him when he tried to rape me. I'm still a virgin and the reason is because I have trust issues. I know that if I have sex with a guy I'll become very attached and my heart can easily be broken. So I'm waiting for a guy I can trust.
I recently just started dating someone. I'm not in love with him but we've been very good friends and when he asked me out I just had to say yes so that I wouldn't lose him. I've still not had sex with him and I like that he respects my wishes. My boyfriend loves me and although I don't love him equally I've opened up to him about how difficult it is for me to reciprocate love.
Then there is this other guy I just became friends with. I won't lie, I'm sexually attracted to this guy. My sexual attraction to him intensified when he opened up to me about his kinks which are similar to mine. He told me he has feelings for me and likes me alot and can't get me out of his mind. I admitted I am sexually attracted to him but that I don't have feelings for him. I know he is sexually attracted to me and has made advances at me and even asked for nude pictures all of which I refused. But I still talk to him. He knows about my boyfriend and is aware of my situation. Occasionally he flirts with me but I try not to flirt back. I've tried to bury my sexual attraction to him but he is just so physically appealing. I've made it clear that I want to be just friends and he seems okay with it. I know I'm principled enough to not allow him have sex with me I'm wondering if it's safe being just friends with him. I enjoy talking to him and don't want to end our friendship.
Last last you will loose everything, your egungun must enter express. You have a privilege to be with someone who respects you but you falling for someone who Disrespect you. Dont worry continue, when that your body that is tingling you got wetin e dey find then your eyes will open.
FFK was one of the first mistake GEJ campaigned group made by choosing him as the DG. I am not surprised but disappointed that the journalists were saying sorry sir, haaahaa! Has poverty finished us to that level? Give me opportunity to ask any of these guys questions and I get the journalist of the year award.
Your story is nice because I can see the progression but if you are not careful you may loose it all. Your thinking must express hope, you must believe in what you are doing and mostly in yourself. You have learnt the lesson of life, never mix business with family, to be Frank with you nobody send you in this life, only God. While in school then I know some guys that will travel faraway lagos to do bus conductors etc because of shame and when school resumes they always have enough. Look for a job that will pay you daily. Crime is not sweet so dont be deceived and infact stay clear off those involved in it if you love yourself. Above all you have taken the right decisions so far, study and wait someday your time come.
ManOfCompetence: Shuaibu is very funny.... When he lifted a mace on someone head during his time as Edo state house of assembly member all because of oshiomole,he saw nothing wrong now that the table has turned he's crying foul because it doesn't favour him....We all know he's also guilty of the accusations he's making against oshiomole and ize iyamu...... LET EDO YOUTHS BE WISE, THESE POLITICIANS ARE NOT WORTH DYING FOR......4+4 TORGBA
You sabi the guy wella, I just dey pity those fighting because of these guys, they are the same thing, 6 and half a dozen.
awhybliss: I see vividly how corruption works � I called a member number from the special public works site (ondo committee 774,000 jobs), the man referred me to a king in the community to get the form from so that I can Register. I got to the oba's palaces yesterday, I told the security personal I came for the special public works, he look me like a novice, he says he don't know anything about it, he direct me to the secretary, getting to the secretary I asked the same question, she also said she haven't heard about that before, so I take my time to talk her through.
She then told me to wait so that she can deliver my message to the king, to my surprise the king comes out, I pay respect as a Yoruba guy, he ask me who referred me, I told him the name (I don't want to mention names) he pick up his phone and call a number probably he didn't clearly hear the name I called, so he call another member of the committee (I could here the conversation, the phone speaker was loud and clear) The discussion on phone:
Oba: why do you send someone to me man:I don't send anybody baba Oba: a boy came here saying you sent him to me Man: please give him the phone (I collect the phone) Man: why are you lying I sent you Me: not a lie sir, I call a number from the special public works site. Man: what's name Me: Mr.*******(for security purposes I don't want mention name yet) Man: give oba the phone, I give back the phone to oba Man: it's is honorable ***** that sent him Oba: why is honorable doing like this (in Yoruba), sebi we agreed we are only employing 8 people out of the 1000, why did he send somebody else again MeI almost fainted after hearing that) Oba: help me tell your people not to refer anybody to the job again oo please (Phone hang up). He then told me to write my name and phone number.... So I left the place.
I have been thinking about it since yesterday, am even less concerned about me getting the job My main concern is even if you want to embezzle money, why must you go so far and deep? it will even be better to employ 500 people and you can embezzle the remaining 500 out of the 1000 beneficiaries..why will you plan to embezzle 992 out of 1000. That's too much, leaving only 8? @fkeyamo fought a good fight by not allowing the project been hijacked.. but it will still end in vain because there will be so many ghost worker that will get paid during this program. Imagine if what I experience is likely what is happening in major local government.
Is he the cause of their problem. When they were collecting and shouting Sai Baba they have no idea that Nigeria under military is different from democracy, they should calm down, oing Buhari is doing well.
