I once heard its a prison for the condemned.

The guards can/will kpai you and still call the Media to come take pictures of your body claiming you tried escaping and was gunned down in the event.

One of the guards allegedly even said. Its a prison for depopulating criminals

Once one criminal is added, one or two must go. Its a death zone.

Its like Sona of Prison break (just that the guards here runs it)

Sona was scary.

But that's how many prisons in Latin America are.

In Mexican prisons, you can even hire an inmate to commit a murder outside prison and he will return.

Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.

The question that needs asking is:

1. Are the numbers reached by Sally Tibbot accurate?

2: Are the government's reconciled numbers accurate?

3. Is the governor worried that eliminating so many workers from the civil service is political suicide in an election year?

4. Did Sally Tibbot inflate the figures to earn more?

We are not talking about cheating, we are talking about fraud.

I don't see where a man would cheat, impregnate another woman and get a child, only to bring the child home and tell his wife to take care of the baby because it belongs to her, and the woman wouldn't know.

Please be rational! How can the man bring a baby home when he can't get pregnant?

If men could carry pregnancies, they would also be involved in such deception.

In additional, many married men have children outside. Many even have second families outside.

Men have also been known to smuggle in their affair children into their homes, disguising them as their domestic servants or relations.

Passionate888:
See as the authorities acted swiftly?, but if it was a Christian girl that was abducted and forcefully converted to islam they'll not know what to do

Stop stating such a bias here.

It's why the US believes there's a Christian genocide in Nigeria while much more impacted by action of marauder bandit gangs and Islamic terrorists.

Moveittothem:
But why are women this heartless?

If you must cheat, can't you at least use a condom?

Don't men cheat more than women in a marriage?

What's the focus on women?

This is simply misogyny.

Femi like his father does not believe in the concept of marriage.

This might have influenced who he chose as a wife and who he dates.

Gboss247:
What is incorrect about my comment?
Foreign Direct Investment and Foreign Portfolio Investment is actually the same thing. Buy shares of companies in Nigeria with dollars, repatriate dollars back home. Majority of these dollars are borrowed to fulfill such obligations.

Oga, you don't know what you're talking about. They are clearly different.

I really doubt she's mentally stable.

One thing is to eat a cat, and another is how you eat.

People who eat cats eat them like eat other types of animals: kill them, drain out the blood, remove the poo and other unsavoury parts of the animal.

You now prepare them by either boiling, frying,or roasting.

They do not eat it raw and bloodied.

Oyinbo man say,"Love me, love my dog."

Here is a good example.

They wanted to become billionaires.

Imagine if Josef Stalin was the president?

He'd demand a carpet bombing of Sambisa and the Mandara mountains and also around Lake Chad which are all terrorists stronghold.

Yes, kill the good and the bad together.

Peter Obi will be crushed because he did not comment before Tinubu

BodyCount:
See MUMU question.
With all the evil and atrocities of SATANiyahu, and all the protests by sensible people in Israel, is it the end or has it ended their terrorist PM?

The Iran protest has been infiltrated by Mossad terrorists and are sponsoring some unpatriotic thugs to cause mayhem...

JUST AS SOME EVIL POLITICIANS AND OPPOSITIONS INFILTRATED ENDSARS PEACEFUL PROTESTERS...

Iran should by all means contain these thugs and terrorists using the protest as a means to
-Steal
-Loot
- And destroy public properties
You can't expect any sensible government to watch irrational and evil sponsored thugs to break down the system.
I trust that Iran will triumph over these Mossad terrorists eventually.

The Iranian economy is in a big mess, a very big one.

Kunlebayo12:
I’m on the verge of being rusticated in school

October when I was writing my final exams, something happened just 1 day to end the exam. So me and my friend wrote on our question paper and we exchanged it between ourselves. When I was writing this initiator started searching everyone he got to me and he search me there was nothing on me, he search my booklet yet nothing, he ask me where is my question paper and I showed him just the front because it was the back we wrote on, when he saw it he flipped the back and saw the question paper and ask me who wrote this and what is all this I told him I wrote it with all the back and font he told me to sit down

Minute later he went outside and bought exam malpractice form and gave me and others those who were using chukuli, phones, book and other material to write.

I beg him that I wrote it, all pleading fell to deaf ear, when I saw he was yielding and time was going and no time to beg I just had to fill the paper. I filled it so I can beg him later so I would be able to write something

To get the long story short, 3 days later I was invigated to the student disciplinary board to explain what happened Which I did, I pleaded and beg that it won’t happen again, thry told me I will be punished but not expelled
In my school examination malpractice is straight expulsion no matter who you may know.

2 days later I got I call from my classrep that I was given 2years rustication. I called the Hod and course adviser and they said it true, I check the name of student expelled my name wasn’t there, I confirm from the student discplinary board and truly I was recommended 2 years suspension but the result will be out on February 17th this year, and when it out my student portal will be shutdown immediately

Even since then I have been sad, depressed and lonely and I can’t even tell my parents because they will be disappointed in me, I have been carrying a burden since early November and now it January, I have been thinking none stop, I have been contemplating suicide to be honest, I don’t pray this kind of situation for my worst enemies and those who haven’t been will never truly knows the pain it cause till you’re in the situation

Please i need help and words of encouragement
Even if you blame me, the dead has already been done, I Bleep up and I accepted my mistake

Please guys I’m dying In silence, I can’t even wait till February 17th, it killing me knowing few days to graduation I was rusticated, what will I tell my parent, or people that have help me one way or another in school. I’m devastated to be honest

I might be ending it any moment from now because this pain is unbearable for me, I just want it to end so I can live a normal life again but I can’t keep living like this. Ignore my typo error

Please someone should help me push it to front page

In my final year in Unilag, I knew two guys who were both on Second Class Upper get expelled. We were to finish together.They helped a layabout write his exam after his papers were smuggled out to them. One's job was to receive the paper while the other answered it.

The layabout passed with flying colors. His lecturer wanted to know which of his students did so well. When he called for the boy, he said he has never seen this boy attend lectures before. The boy insisted. Later the lecturer took the answered papers to the H.O.D and once she saw the handwriting, she knew the student wrote it.

Just thank God you were only rusticated. No need killing yourself.

Do this instead. Tell your parents the truth. Yes, they'll be disappointed in you but won't kill you.

Lock yourself in the room. Don't shower, don't bath, don't eat. When your mum comes around, let her know that you're feeling suicidal and want to end it all. She will be the one to start begging you. Even after she starts and you stick to it, your dad might also begin to plead with you. Don't mind your parents, they probably cheated in their day. The first ever Jamb that leaked was in 1990. English was cancelled. I was from that year. When did your parents take JAMB?

Now, how will you use your 2 years? Turn your pepper to peppersoup. Find an online course that can enable you earn 6 figures or more monthly. The money you'll be earning will bring you some succour.

Gboss247:
The forex they repatriate home are majorly loans borrowed loans borrowed by the federal government.

That is very incorrect.

There are two types of foreign investment into a country:
[b]
1. Foreign Direct Investment

That is when foreign investment is used to set up factories, set up companies, purchase companies and more.

Foreign direct investment (FDI) is a substantial, long-term investment made by a company or government into a foreign project or firm.

Key Takeaways
Foreign direct investment (FDI) is a substantial, lasting investment made by an investor, company, or government into a foreign concern.
FDI investors typically take controlling positions in foreign firms or joint ventures and are actively involved in their management.
The investment may involve acquiring a source of materials, expanding a company’s footprint, or developing a multinational presence.

2. Foreign Portfolio Investment

Foreign portfolio investment (FPI) consists of securities and other financial assets held by investors outside of their domestic market. It does not provide the investor with direct ownership of a company's assets and is relatively liquid, depending on the volatility of the market. Along with foreign direct investment (FDI), FPI is one of the common ways to invest in an overseas economy. FDI and FPI are both important sources of funding for most economies.[/b]

First of all, I only mentioned Foreign Direct Investment. That is not the same as portfolio investment.

The vast majority of Nigeria's foreign reserves are not made up of foreign loans.

SpencerForbes:
Wait... 😳 No USB cord or even an old bathroom slipper in that house? And he actually had the nerve to tell his mother, "I don’t blame you," to her face? 😞

This is beyond Gen Z behavior.

Honestly, posting that video makes her look like a bad mother. Why share it online instead of actually correcting or punishing him? This is exactly why some guys are hesitant to marry younger women. If you can't even raise the kids right, what exactly are you bringing to the family?

There are 4 ways people will look at this:

1. The mother is at fault.

2. The son is at fault.

3. The dad is at dault.

4. This should never have been posted online.

Some parents don't like beating. This video alone would shame the boy. He must NEVER EVER EVER talk to his mother like that. There would also be pressure on the mother to do "something."

Posting this video would be sufficient.

When I was almost 16, my mum suffered from an illness that left her partially paralysed neck down.

Till she died, I never raised my voice at her. I remember only once and that was because I suffer from social anxiety and trauma. I experienced something which triggered me my fear.

Episode22:
Hello Nairalanders,

Please, I’ll keep this brief and straight to the point.

I need honest opinions and practical advice.
Can someone realistically survive in Nigeria on a daily income of $10?. I work from home.

If no, please explain why.

If yes, I’d appreciate a clear strategy—how to manage it, possible business ideas, and how one could grow beyond that income level.

For context, I currently earn $10 daily online from my blog, and on some days $13.

If this income is not sustainable in the long run, I genuinely want to know so I can plan better and make informed decisions.

Constructive advice only, please.

Moderators, kindly assist with visibility. Thank you.

You should be fine. It is enough to start a family. By the time she puts to bed, your income would probably be at least $30 a daily. That's about N42,000 daily.

Since you work online, you can stay anywhere you want, You can stay in Otta or Akute areas of Ogun state. They border Lagos state and rents there are low.

A guy who is a freelancer lives in Otta. You are not limited by location.

Perhaps, increase your earning to $50 a day or more.

It would be nice if she works but it isn't compulsory. You could also set up a biz for her.

lakefist:
It won't be the first or last. The protest is sponsored and will continue to spread.

Why do you think it is sponsor? Do you support the Iranian Mullahs?

The country has suffered from high inflation and a bad economy for decades. The masses aren't happy.

$1- 42,121.9 IRR

They were either from the Silent Generation or the Baby Boomers.

The Silent Generation has ruled the country the longest

1. Yakubu Gowon: 1966-1975

2. Muritala Mohammed: 1975-1976

3. Olusegun Obasanjo 1975-1979

4. Shehu Shagri was from the Greatest Generation. So, he doesn't count.

5. Mohammadu Buhari: 1983-1985

6. Ibrahim Babangida 1985-1993

7. Sani Abacha 1993-1998

8. Absalami Abubakar 1998-1999

9. Olusegun Obasanjo 1999-2007

10. Umaru Musa Yar'Adua 1997-2010

11 Good Jonathan is a Baby Boomer so does not count.

12. Mohammadu Buhar: 2015-2023

13. Tinubu does not count as he is a Baby Boomer.

The wicked flee when no one pursues them,
But the righteous are as confident as a lion (Read Proverbs 28:1)

If he had any sense, he should have fled to a country that has no extradiction treaty with Ghana.

If this corruption happened in Nigeria, nothing go shele.

WizardOfNG:
No

Well said. I started the thread below a while back . Is it not now obvious the American criminal defense attorney and former state and federal prosecutor, Ron Filipkowski, who raised concerns over the mental stability of United States President Donald Trump may have a valid point that Trump is mentally unstable?

Like you stated, what he announced should never be uttered publicly because they are offensive and only a lunatic can make such provocative announcement tantamount to telling a man "I will enter your house, jail you and take your wife, family and asset as my own to do as I please with".

Like another poster said, no one would have believed this would be the reality of the world even a year ago. Yet I am not surprised .

We all know history to understand how Hitler carried Germany along in evil , unopposed and as Trump is doing, to the shame and regret of the German nation to this day.

Trump will leave the stage but the damage he is doing, that Americans are abetting, will linger to stain and haunt the USA for a long time. Human beings, Hitler etal for example, tend to see today only and not tomorrow or even ten years ahead.

I'll be honest with you, the man drives me nuts, drives me mad!

If the Democrats do impeach him after midterm elections, they would have done the world a big favor.

motymop:
they are in venuzuala not iraq, afganistan or vietnam

why do you guys do not try to adapt to modern issues, always using past historical event to judge present situations

The paresent usually can't be divorced from what happened in the past. It usually shown a pattern. If it changes, it is usually because the pattern is no longer working or there is a new person at the helm.

Donald Trump is writing his own script. He has zero knowledge about how international relations work.

You never, ever, ever utter that the only products Venezuelans will purchase are American, even if they point a gun at your head.

Even if it is true, you must NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER utter.

You must NEVER NEVER NEVER utter that US oil companies will come and exploit Venezuelan oil resources

This strikes as exploitation and neo-colonialism, and trust me, Venezuelans will turn against the US.

motymop:
he is wise, he just did what colonizers usually do.

this is how they will afford it, they will use the revenue from selling venezuala oil to buy only american product

have you seen american plan for africa to counter russia and chinese influence, it is similar, they want africans to buy american products medicine and tech

Your 3rd paragraph is not fact.

In iraq, Afghanistan and even Vietnam, the US did not demand that all products imported into those countries must be from the US.

LegendHero:
Trump is not wise.

How do you want a poor country to afford made in America medicine and etc if you’re going to sell at market value?

This is colonization 2.0. Trump is just tweeting/truthing anything that comes to his dementia mind.

Tomorrow now he might say Venezuela should change their name to something in English

The man's IQ is probably the lowest ever for IS presidents.

Abbeytoy:
In the last two years, things have not been going well with my brother and his wife. My brother will call me and lament about his wife's behaviour, he told me that anytime they have a misunderstanding, this lady changes the key and locks him out in the cold. Though he's the one who pays the rent and all the bills, the lady gets child support and spends lavishly on unnecessary things while the apartment is given to his wife by the government.

But the last one she did, my brother left the house and swore never to have anything to do with her again. Even my brother did it to the extent that he requested the DNA of the son; unfortunately, he's the owner.

This lady has been begging everyone, and both her parents and some family members have travelled down to our place to plead on her behalf, but my brother insisted he's not interested in the marriage again.

He was scouting with one of our cousins before, and we thought that when he got tired, he'd move back home as usual, but this man has gotten an apartment and does not let anyone know the location.

The worst of it all is that he did not talk to his 7-year-old son and didn't take on any responsibilities for him again.

The boy keeps crying to see his dad, but my brother keeps saying her mother is only using him to get his attention, saying the boy will see him when it's the right time.

This lady called me last week and said he wanted to pack from the house and my brother should come move all his belongings, but my brother sent me back to her that she should throw everything away, he mentioned that the lady can frame him up or call the police for him and turn to legal battles.

I believe whatever happened between them, the boy did not cause it, and cutting off his only child emotionally and financially is not self-protection but abandonment.

I know marriage can end, but fatherhood should not. You can abandon marriage and still fully show up as a father. The two are not the same contract

All the family are tired, and even I, his closest brother, am tired. I only want him to be a responsible dad to his only child.

Please, what can I do? I really love my brother and want peace for him, however I pity his child.

You brother has totally had it. Anything that connects him with his wife he wants to cut, even his son.

The wife might bait him using their son, and that's why the son has to wait until he is 100% certain the wife won't use his son to her advantage.

I stand by my words. Plus where in my statement did I say You personally are a Muslim? Cos I said many Muslims did not prot at until they start dbeing attacked?

What do you mean by "prot"?

omoredia:
It was an accident it can happen to anybody. They should leave him

It was an accident caused by excessive speed.

I remember when I was learning how to drive, I was cautioned against hitting a parked vehicle, especially one well parked. What defence would I have?

It would be clear as night and day that i was guilty.

Danjuma hated Aguiyi Ironsi.

He tore him to shreds one that that his widow had to say something.

Nevertheless, holding his tribe collectively responsible for the death of the Sardauna demonstrates how illogical human justice is.

Only get pregnant to a man you're married to.

This is just after the facts.

Sonnobax15:

He doesn't cheat

How broke man wan take cheat?

I'm speaking from experience tho .

Many broke guys cheat. They just lower their standards.

Cherryediva:
Hello everyone, sorry for the long post
I got married at 22, my husband was 40 at the time. We have been married for 5 years and we have a child together.
My concern is that my husband is not able to satisfy me sexually at all, which is frustrating, I have talked to him about it nothing seems to change. Financially, he is struggling, partly because he gambles a lot. He also drinks alcohol heavily.
I work too but he doesn't want me to have my own money he is always collecting money from me.
He doesn’t have clear goals, ambition, or a vision for the future, and this makes me feel stagnant in the marriage.
He is a good man in terms of character. He doesn’t cheat, he doesn’t abuse me at all, and he treats me well overall.
I’m confused because while he is good to me, I feel stuck and unfulfilled. I would really appreciate advice from y'all who have been in similar situations or who can offer honest guidance.
Thank you.

Why not request a visit by Jehovahs Witnesses. It sounds weird but it helped someone I know stop gambling. The first thing he bought when he stopped gambling was a fridge. He wanted to see first hand what the money he did not squander on gambling bought, and that was over 25 years ago. He has never gambled since.

Your husband does have some good qualities which to some extent makeup for his downsides.

For best results, both of you study together. Even if it's only you, it can have a profound effect on your husband

As your love for God grows, your love to do what is right before him grows. This also goes for your husband. Read Hebrews 4:12, Psalms 103:8-14
