As the first born you'll inherit everything and the step son won't be able to fight over the properties with you.

Win win

You guys take Nigeria too seriously

Sorry about that. I trust and believe men of the Nigeria Army are well trained not to attack innocent citizens but to protect the nation from external attacks. However, with the rise of criminal activities in the nation, most criminals put on the uniform of the Nigerian Army pretending to be men of the Nigerian army and police while carrying out their crimes on the innocent citizens. We are aware of the various attacks on our security agencies in the south east where some of the security men are attacked, killed and their properties stolen. It is very possible that those criminals who attack our security men and steal their properties commit such crimes.

Since you said you have evidence of payment which is the transfer, I suggest you visit the nearest Police station around you and file in your complaint while the Police looks into the matter.

We all must join hands and stop this criminals parading as security men in our country.

I wish you quick healing my dear Nairalander. God bless you.

Do you even live in Nigeria?

Only the day before yesterday a thief was caught on my street and after a little kpokpo they called the police to come and take him away.

The police demanded to be settled. I heard them discussing N5k.

Lindner:
I've engaged with some developers on nairaland about this topic and out of frustration, I just surrendered.

Since the pandemic and the popularization of remote work, it's no longer news that western tech companies now look to source talents from Africa and Some parts of Asia. The rationale is to cut cost.

A recruiter that recruits for some of these tech companies recently told me that they no longer disclose potential salary budget to candidates from Africa, especially Nigeria.

She mentioned that they are always shocked at the salary expectations of candidates. She went further to state that 9 out of 10 candidates from Africa request for between 20% to 80% below the budget of the companies( Even though the company is already saving a lot by recruiting from Africa). And the fact that she mentioned Nigeria specifically got me a little angry.

Why tf will you guys be asking for $500/month for a software development role no matter whether its entry level or not? What values do you place on yourself? Just because you live in Nigeria? A cleaner does not even get paid $500/month in those companies. Do you feel good knowing the colleague you'll be working with is earning ×5 of what you're being paid and you're probably even adding more value. Don't you get angry?

The painful part is that some of these companies didnt even offer to pay you these miserable salaries, you requested it yourself.

Sometime ago, on another thread here on NL, on the same topic of remote job compensation, some folks came to the thread with alot of justification why $500/month is a good offer. They cited exchange rate, poverty rate in Nigeria, how there's no job and every other pathetic reasons why they should slave away to a western company. I can't even begin to reason the ones that are hawking their "skills" here on NL offering to build a full fledged e-commerce site with integrated payment solutions for 10k naira.

I don't care what you say, if you know your shit and have good self esteem, you can earn as much as $4k/month. Before you come here and start reciting all the impossibilites in your books, know that I'm writing from a position of knowledge. I have statistics and real life examples to substantiate this figure. I myself have been working remotely even before the pandemic.


I wouldn't have bothered to even write, but this development is now coming back to bite some of us just because we answer the name Nigerian.

In a country where people get paid N10k per month what exactly do you expect?

Explorers:
You be chairman na

I be man. I still dey find chair

Just $1m.

Small money

Boniwhite:
Dear nairalanders,i was having a conversation with a family friend last week.
and she said,she doesn like visitors remaining food served to them. then i told her there is nothing wrong in finishing the food served to you by your host! So am seeking your opinion,
is it wrong to finish food serve to you by your host? Like wont they (your host)look at you as a glutton? Lets hear from you guys.

People always complain I always ask for more

25 years just like that

In a country where they enjoy pooping on women

grandstar:
My brother, before Buhari enter, it was $1,000 a day limit. Imagine going to the bank now to apply for BTA? All you needed then was your Naira card to spend overseas. This man has wrecked or finished the economy. It's unwise to rely on man (Read Psalms 146:3-4)

And after that he went and blocked the borders.

Why people voted for him the second time really baffles me

teeytimi:
Buhari intentionally create artificial scarcity just to enrich his aboki brothers who easily get dollar at 410 and In turn sell it at 570 all at the expense of other Nigerians.
Smh

Exactly!

The $100/month limit on debit cards is simply ridiculous and a clear plot to create artificial scarcity of the dollar.

Cbn should increase the limit to $1,000/month for savings account and see how the rate of dollars will drop overnight.

These guys are just thieves I swear

lied:
You are a good man

No levels

dfrost:
Yeah, I know. Just that of late he has been posting big money up and down.

Explorers dey hustle back to back with vigor

Check very well....

After Jesus turned water to wine an Igbo man started that business

Illusioneffect:
Don't mind him, is not only about being funny but you just have to be strategic with the use of words and unfortunately Nigerian comedians aren't doing anything like that. Nigerian stand up comedians just bring the same crap everyday. They are always trying to copy. Didn't the guy see interview of Davido with Trevor Noah, the guy they try form accent

I did not even bother to try to reply his follow up comment. In this Buhari era man cannot waste mb

Ezemust:
now this is another issue.i am a respected person around here.the security guys are hausas and i understand hausa quite well.we are close.they feel bad detaining me but they are doing their work i understand...they let me in with my phone.

So what's the update?

Kaycee7:
Nigerian stand-up comedians are Nigerian stand-up comedians. They don't need to learn anything about how it's done. They're already killing it on stage with their style and flair.

Or do you think Wizkid and Davido need to learn how it's done from Chris Brown and Ed Sheeran?

Oh please. Nigerian comedians and musicians steal foreign styles.

Wizkid and Davido with all their forced British and American accents and hustling to get foreign artists on their tracks.

And that's why whenever Nigerians get visas to go to the US or nominations for the Grammys it always signifies the height of their career and achievement.

Let's not delude ourselves please

How can i sell Nigeria secret to Russia? I need my own share of Nigeria

This is the kind of bribe I need in my life right now

You people are talking about your mothers but this thread has my wife's name written all over it

Klass99:
I just want to hear drama nah. So, you believe there'll be no more issues with this his move?

E be like sey you never jam anyhow neighbours wey get anyhow character.

She will forget that she was using the guy's cooking gas without him complaining but the moment he does this, she go begin carry face and her attitude towards him will change - I can bet you that's what will happen.

If she get mumu husband, that one too will join her, in her foolishness to start beefing OP on top of his own cooking gas.

That couple already sounds very entitled, selfish and annoying as f...ck, like that your ex babe wey no wan pay back loan. I mean what stopped them from buying their own cooking gas when they work? And it's not like 5kg gas is 10 or 20k.

Gbam.

That is what will happen.

Give people a finger and they'll want the whole arm

aytech360:
There is this my neighbor wife that is annoying me.

The story

I have a 3kg cooking gas cylinder that I used to fill regularly when I finished it up while cooking and they have their own too 5kg.

When their own finishes they will be using my own for a day or two before they refill their own with my permission when they asked for it which I consider a normal stuff and I don’t have problem with it since the money to refill is not my problem.

But for two months now when the gas price went up I have been noticing some stupid shit coming from the wife where she will rush to my own gas to cook and she didn’t even ask for permission again and she consider it normal since I don’t use to talk.

They don’t even fill their gas anymore and I am the one filling my own gas to cook for the whole house the thing I normally used for a 3-4 weeks now I must fill every Saturday amount to 1800# and I am tired of this shit and I don’t want to hurt them by insulting the woman because they consider me the good guy.

I will have to wait to cook on my own gas for them to finish silly.

So I just refill the 3kg for 1950# in my area and before I even cook anything they’ve started using it and it annoyed me and I released the gas to the air to empty cylinder when she gone out to her work.

As usual she has bought what she wanted to cook in the night and went straight to the gas to cook and she noticed it has empty and there is no option again. So I have decided not to fill the gas again for like a month because things are hard and the price for the gas kept going up.

Am I wicked

Omo, everywhere hard o. I cannot blame you at all.

Your mistake was tolerating it from the get go as it is usually hard to stop such a thing once you start and when you finally decide to stand for yourself people will say you are a bad person.

Just remember, "if people dey talk say that guy is a good man just know say him na mugu"

He should be allowed to jump again from the top of the roof and aim for the concrete directly instead.

Okay.

When you get out of this make sure you don't repeat such a thing again

Styluss:
that's his real account bro... Hes a member since 2013... Crucify him all you want.. But pls be compassionate cos he showed remorse

Now imagine you caught a thief, in Nigeria, and for some reason you still allow him to put on his phone, put on his internet and create a thread on nairaland and while you are at it he will be replying to comments on the thread.

In Nigerian o

Ezemust:
I went to the estate that i am working with this evening and decided to move two pkts of wall tiles and got caught.the security men just drop me in the estate cell for the police to come and take me 2maro....yes i am in truoble,my first big disgrace in life.2maro i gonna be one hell of a big day 4 me...please abuse me but still pray 4 me.

And you are able to create a thread on nairaland?

KimberlyWest post=106480959:
The story is obviously made up.


Wahala for who wan trend for front page.

Btw, some infections are not sexually transmitted.

The background in that lady's photo doesn't seem like the supposed husband can afford a 3 bedroom apartment. 3 bedroom apartment is not 5 naira. Hope he knows he's going to be renewing the rent every year.

Obviously

signature2012:
What’s the purpose of posting the suppose lady picture here?
You already took her to a hospital and she was diagnosed of having an infection.Isn’t next thing to do is to start treatment?

I am still trying to understand why you opened this thread.To get sympathy or Medical advice?

Looks like blackmail
