You do ur job with no drama.

And be on top of your game.

Nobody fires an asset.

I read one post where somenone was fired for going for a job interview and I laughed.

People drop resignation letter self and we double their pay to make sure they wait.

U need to add value to your organization and stop being a victim or playing victim.

In this country, "every aboki with e kettle" is a popular saying and it's used most of the time with varying situations. Many Nigerians, like it or not, are seriously narcissistic. Many are never really of much help to you when you desperately need them. One of these narcissistic tendencies is the deep, infact almost pathological need for control. Yes control. You buy a jersey and everyone wants to tell you that your choice is wrong and that they should have been consulted first. You introduce your girlfriend to people and everyone seems to want to tell you if you are the perfect couple or not, you rent a house in a certain neighbourhood and people be like "eyaah, na there you pack go?" As a lady, your committee of friends would want to choose a guy for you that meets their standards, not yours. When you resist their attempts at control, the saying comes out "leave am oh, every aboki with e kettle". In most cases, they leave you alone but then they lie in wait, waiting for you to come to ruin.
But in all this, I have never seen people react so offended and troubled as to when they see a man who decides to grow his hair a few centimeters high. Why is it so personal? It's hair on the head of someone else. I have never seen anything like it. The passion, anger, vitriol, hurt etc that comes out especially when you ignore the so-called advice (cut the hair, you'll look better). The way Nigerians are so intent on policing others into conformity, if we police our government like this Nigeria will be the best nation in the world. For Christ sakes, it's hair. If it's not natural then it won't grow. Even your sacred photos of Jesus depict a middle aged man with shoulder length hair yet people will quote Bible verses where Paul said not to keep hair.
Please Nigerians, what do you have against a male keeping hair?

Its nobody's business if u earn more than the OP actually. Your not seeing reasons to own a car now is your personal resolve. The OP isnt a kid, this is a married man who needs a decent ride to ease movement for his family.

radautoworks:
think everyone got caught up the buying price. The problem is maintenance and fuel. Honestly, with your budget, I do not recommend getting a car right now because even when you get a used in your budget, it will require more maintenance which you can't afford. I feel for your wife but what point is driving it until the first oil change or breakdown?

An oil change alone is at least 10% of your stated monthly income. Not to talk of fuel. To really know if you can afford it, go look at local parts shops and mechanics for the cost and labor of the following items for the specific car you are considering should you need them. If you can afford it in a pinch, buy. If not, wait.

1) brake replacement
2) a new tire
3) oil change with proper oil or you will blow your engine quickly
4) a new battery
5) alternator
6) radiator
7) 4 spark plugs

If you can afford all of these should something happen, buy a car. These are the most common things that will prevent you from being able to use your car at all.

Kashif:
OP, It won't be easy to own a car as a family of three that earn 110k/month. Rent, feeding, medicals, school fees, utility, extended family etc, are there too.

Cost of automobile ownership is not all about fuel and servicing. Be aware of engine and transmission cost as anything can happen. To avoid costly repairs, you must give it sublime care, which won't be cheap. Also remember you will need to replace tyres at some point.

Not discouraging you, just trying to expand your awareness. Best of luck.

Your choice of car is not bad though.

dont go and buy a car that will end up killing u ooo....every weekend is repair...u will be a customer at mecho shop

Dude only say what you know.
I have a Primera i got for lesser than that price u posted above. More than a year now, it's always on the road as i enjoy driving and even trust it's reliability even more than my camry. AC chills too

Only minor repairs that costs me almost nothing. (Mind you, most of these minor repairs can be negleted but i am a person that always love everything in shape, even to the smallest dent) No major repairs. Even my mechanic, as well as passengers always talk about how smooth the car is.

Your money doesn't actually matter. U can buy a Lemon for 1Million naira, at the same time u can get a sound vehicle for just 350k. Just pray, go with a competent mechanic and use your head when checking and acquiring the car. Take things easy and dont rush.You ll be ok
I actually monitored my own seller with the car for some months before i decided to check it out. lol.

OP. Am so sure you ll be good with Nissan products. Sunny, Almera, Primera and the likes. But make sure u get a good one, the cars are easy to maintain, but when thwy get abused, you can easily tell.

Golf 3 is a good ride too, personally am not a fan cos of the look and the engine noise plus AC overheating

Civic is ok. But when a used Honda starts getting old, it starts looking funny, as if the car is kinda laughing while others just look so tired, Even body frames and/or panel beating doesnt seem to help.

If you step up your budget just a lil' bit, you can get a Toyota corolla 2001 (Auto). I trust the ride very much too.

If the circumstances line up perfectly, opening up the opportunity for her to cuckold him, she will NOT hesitate.

Let me explain.

They are finally married; she is finally settled she is now relaxed. She has a job and a life of her own, makes her own money, has facebook and access to social media; talks regularly with exes; husband tries but cannot give her the life she's accustomed to, husband loves her, but she has had better sex before; she grows resentful of husband every day because of his inability to satisfy her numerous needs; husband reacts to the development; she gets angry, calls ex, they hang out, she has nostalgic feelings about their past love, ex makes her REALLY comfortable....HE BANGS. Note that this is not even a new TDH situation. Just an ex. Yes, an ex who banged all he wanted and dumped her for a younger woman. She would have loved to marry him but he 'didn't propose'.

After she does this, get this now, she rationalizes that its her husband's fault that she cheated- he wasn't loving and caring enough, he shouted at her blablabla. At this point, she will continue to give herself every imaginable reason why it is ok for to cheat on her husband.

If a woman doesn't like u when she's 18, she won't when she's 27 or 30, but she will trick you into marriage and trap you nonetheless. It is men who are romantic when it comes to marriage. Women are cold and calculative as fucc, especially when the 'WALL' is upon them.

Selah.

Votukpa:
Two lessons men are to draw from this post:

1. The 'WALL' is no respecter of women. When she hits it, she will marry any man who proposes. Women, once at a certain age just want the social proof of marriage. It will be sufficient for them. Don't be deceived, if she rejected you once for a stupid and immature reason like your height only to change her mind 7 years down the road, she will behave the same way in your marriage. Go figure.

2. Your resources will speak for you. If you are not a man of means-and she marries you-whether she is rich or poor, she will have VERY little respect for you.

We aren't trained by our fathers on how to select a spouse and so, we now have men making uninformed decisions on marriage partners.

1. Have a source of livelihood for YOURSELF first.
2. Be a minimalist, even if you earn a lot- save and invest your money.
3. Be true to yourself and evaluate thoroughly if you need a wife.
4. If you do, for believers in Christ, seek the Lord prayerfully for direction to the spouse that is suitable for you.
5. Prayerfully WAIT for her to be shown to you. Many decoys will come, pretending to be the appointed one. Red flags are red for a reason. Don't ignore them. Focus on the one that is of God's will and not the one that is of yours.

Pls speak English ok. Beside it concern me because I'm from.the region originally more so I have read the true story it wasn't IPOB idea to do sit at home it was some igbo group including IPOB that called for sit at home to protest and I quote *Nigeria should be return to independence era where equity is the rule* and not those IPOB blabla nonsense.

So it wasn't IPOB that ordered sit at home and this is what i have be waiting for to see a collective sensible group gather together to speak volume for the igbos and not all those miscreants, illiterates, no vision, power drunk, touts, failure and no common sense club called IPOB. Igbo are too intelligent to be a zombie in the hands of IPOB bro it wont work personally I hate IPOB mode of approach with passion.

Thank. Happy Tuesday

HungerBAD:
I don't get it.

What exactly is the police complaining about this time?IPOB is down the food chain in my bottom list, but these guys are not bothering anyone.

They go for a protest,and they get arrested. Now that they want to stay at home, how is this even a bother to the Police?I do not like people oppressing others,and all I see is the oppression of the Igbo people.

The good people of Nigeria should speak against this oppression. The Police cannot go to the North,West and even the South South,and want to convert it into a modern day slavery plantation and not allow them have any kind of voice.

I support the APC, but will not support Tyranny.

The Government should stop the experimentation of slavery plantation owners on the people of the East. These guys have rights too.

klax:
To be honest Nnwanne all you have said make no sense a bit.

Who is practising slavery And who are the slaves

You said it can't happen in the north or SS pls has their be anytime any group banned from the North or SS or SW embark on this kind of stupid sit at home order madness

How many time would it be sounded to your ears that IPOB is a miscreants gathering and it has be banned Pls IPOB is not igbo IPOB is just an organisation of some fools from igbo land get that fact so all you are saying make no sense biko you hear.

For even say you support apc make me to hate you so keep your crap to your bossom. IPOB was banned and it should remain so anyone not pls with that can leave Nigeria and claim Cameroonian or Togoless. IPOB lack the merit to order any one around like zombies pls hell no.

klax:
Mr man why just wasting your life stupidly In such situation you don't go physical combat becayse a man that slept with your wife is ready to kill you.

Bro next time you come to this world if lucky to come back just do jungle justice and game over.

CioAngels:
Mr man, rest in peace, but you should
have not fought with the man, it was not worth killing yourself over a woman who is sleeping about. You should have asked your wife to carry her load and go with man and it ends there whether children are involved or not.

HardMirror:
lolz! And he was rushed to the hospital. The whole story screams 'fraud!' 'lies!'
And they were even negotiating... how? Inside the car or how? Lolz!

linearity:
They left him in the ‘pool of his blood’ but bullet refuse to enter his body

I have never heard of Armed Robbers negotiationing amount when they accost someone or invade a residence...they take everything on site and in sight or hidden.

That's the fun, that's the thrill coz the secretion explains the whole beauty - that you're doing a good job downtown.

At that moment, nothing stops her from erupting like an active volcano. Check her eyes, they are RED!

omooba969:
Di©k is for penetration while mouth is for stimulation.

omooba969:
Ok, can you stick your di©k in faeces?

Just try it niqqur, there's no harm in it.

Mklancee:
Good for her. Mouth that is meant for feeding have now turn to something they will use in washing one toilet hole

bisi16:
Which general public? Only a section. Coup plotting is punishable by death regardless. Especially when they didn’t even kill one Igbo personality. 2, these coup plotters were imprisoned in Enugu where they were living like kings.

Yyeske:
Let us call a spade what it is, eziokwu bu ndu(truth is life).
Igbos participated in making Nigeria what it is today.

Azikiwe rejected referendum and secession to be inserted into our constitution.

Nzeogwu and his colleagues led a one sided coup.

Ironsi created a unitary government and made the centre stronger than the regions, he didn't execute the coup plotters as expected in the military.

Ojukwu declared Biafra knowing fully well it's a declaration of war against Nigeria, no adequate preparation, weapon or foreign backup. That a pogrom was going on against Ndigbo in the north and Gowon desecrating the Aburi accord shouldn't had made him declare Biafra in a hurry without foreign backup and equipment, the US today would always go into a war with allies, we never had any.

Nnamdi Kanu brought his own madness into the mix by calling for the killing of Yorubas and Hausas, causing more friction between tribes.
