ASUU, University of Calabar (UNICAL) Chapter Accepts FG's Offer With Gratitude, Agrees to Suspend Strike On Friday.

Reasonable school

Marrying in Nigeria now is difficult let alone an Igbo girl. My elder brother will be tying the nuts in January and I can tell you it's only God that has been helping him. The drinks our potential in-laws listed amounted to over 300k!! I wonder why most parents see their daughters marriage as a means to amass possessions.

You call 300k amassing wealth? Men spend that on 2 bottles of Moet in a Club (not the highest ranking clubs like Quilox oo). Just go and work smart bro. Make money and you will not have a reason to complain.

setobaba:
Bro right I see no lady that worth such huge amount for me to acquire

We move

You were never ready and may never be if you keep putting a price tag on your future...manager and procreating machine.

Be sure to set your priorities right and then come back.

At the the age of 20 what should a young man supposed to have achieved. If you have any advice or life experience to share to the young minds please do.

A young man where? In Nigeria it should be different from what his mate in the UK or US would achieve. So be categorical. Let us just say in Nigeria, if you are from a middle class family, you would have just finished your first degree and waiting at home for covid to end ahead of youth service. If on the other hand your parents are from the lower echelon, you will either be struggling with JAMB (3rd or 4th attempt) or you would have been home in the past almost 1 year doing nothing because of ASUU or (I dont wish it for you), the person could be in detention...

There is no clarity as to where to be or what to have achieved if you are a 20 year old Nigerian (In Nigeria). Life just no balance for here...

This was really helpful as i am planning on going on a road trip next month from Lagos to Accra back to Lagos. I'll definitely go through ABC, I was almost thinking of going through those buses and cabs at Mile2. Please do you know any other good transport line?

Please do you have an idea of the transport now and cheap affordable hotel fee in Accra? Thanks

Aside ABC, God is Good Motors does the trip. EFEX also does.

My experience was only with ABC though, so I cannot speak to or vouch for the others (and I am not saying they are bad either, I just do not have any experience with them).

As for costs, I suggest you check online. My trip was years ago.

All the period I have been in Ghana I have always done Osu in Accra. They have a number of good and not too expensive hotels. Check online. It is however important to note that Ghana is now hosting a lot of tourists so prices in the hotels have actually skyrocketed as I noticed at my last trip (i guess early last year).

Ndipe:
Thank you.

While you are at, visit Elmina Castle at Cape Coast and the nearby Kakun park. there is also this boat ride at a certain lake (name has eluded me now) and don't forget to pick some kente materials. Visit also the Nkrumah park and this former president's house at Osu. Hotels are cheap at Osu too and it is a very central area. You have a Nigerian kitchen at Oxford Street and you will eat any Nigerian food there. They have their favorite Kenke at almost every corner (but i hate corn meals and i was made to understand that Kenke is prepared using corn, so i never tried it). A lot to enjoy.

Plus if you love the ocean, seat to the left of the vehicle...the drivers row while going....You will watch the coastline and see the ocean from a distance.

I hope this helps.

Enjoy.

Ndipe:
I am interested in visiting Ghana and I will like to take a road trip. The reason is just to explore and enjoy the scenery from Lagos to Accra. But the long journey itself is a deterrent unlike if I were to fly.

As soon as you get to Badagry and cross into Benin Republic, the trip is smooth and enjoyable...try it.

But up until you get to Badagry the road is generally crazy from the Lagos axis.

All the best Ndipe.

So true but your man of God sorrounds himself with mopols. Are their faith waning?

A monkey in human clothing is still a monkey. What breed are you?

You are still spewing trash.

I won't humour you again with a response. It is condescending.....

Even monkeys will hate me for equating you with them. Those animals possess higher Intelligence Quotient than your brightest forbears that begat your silly self.

I should hate to do those animals a disservice.

Those ones are everywhere na. The funny is that other than hawking cheap products or owning small shops, they hardly do anything in the north but they will soon say that they are developing Kano.

Spoken like the dumb person you are

Whoever listened when a fool talked should expect to hear foolishness

Simplyleo:
You mean there are igbos in Kano state?

I thought the North is unproductive and nothing good can be found there.

Not really. Igbos have what it takes to grow vegetables in the desert. It is God's gift and you can't replicate it. Give it up to them bro.

Learn from me...

Keep a pepper spray and taser gun handy. I even have handcuffs so if I am able to bring you down I cuff you. All man to himself in this Lag.

SmartPolician:
This may sound awkward, but I don't have any business with flying if I am not in a hurry.

Oftentimes, I compare traveling by air and road. No doubt, local air travel has loads of advantages. For instance, I like looking at the entire city from the air with houses looking so tiny.

However, I enjoy traveling by road because you get to know places (you don't become a novice for the rest of your life), you experience brief stops to get food and you may run into an old friend, and you gist like no tomorrow.

As for air travel, most passengers sleep off immediately the plane gets into the cloud with a height of 33,000km above the ground. The next thing you hear is the pilot announcing that you guys will be landing soon. Mtchewwww

That is fine Sir.

Any trip beyond Ibadan from Lagos, I fly. Nothing says i will not meet my friends in the air and t the airport. Also I do not need a meal on the go in 50 minutes flight. Meanwhile before the Covid 19 ish, snacks are served (except you fly business class), so i honestly loose nothing. All the routes I fly are well known to me by road. I have even done the west coast by road severally so flying into Ghana in an hour is better than doing 8 hours across Benin, Togo and aflao.....(with immigration insults and all)

To each, his own bro....

teegrams:
An exited Nigerian Lady has said prayers for her well-wishers and followers on Twitter as she boarded an aeroplane for the first time this weekend.
Responding to the tweet a lot of her followers have shared their first-time experience flying in an aircraft while those that haven't claimed her prayers. Whats your experience flying for the first time?





Source:https://rayoonline.com/lady-prays-for-her-followers-as-she-flies-in-an-aircraft-for-the-first-timephotos/

My experience for flying first time? Na for inside my mama bele I begin fly. As a student I use am go school and return for hols. As an adult, until covid-19 pandemic I was virtually living in the air. Now flying has resumed again, so where exactly should I fix my experience?

I am happy for those experiencing it anew. To me there was no excitement. I will encourage whoever can to try and fly, it provides comfort and makes your trip short. It is also safer than road trips.

Cultism is a menace in our society. Na GOD help me that year for school weh them DEH pursue me up and down make I come bam but I no gree. Before I do anything I think about my mum how she will feel about my action.

Emboldened.
And you're literate?

Okay lemme ask how you knew this as you sound confidential

...sound confidential?

Sound confident is a better grammar in the context.

You are highly literate my brother...

ndidibabe:
Sir, please drive a SUV like Acura MDX to same Ibadan. My hubby has the 2010 which I have driven to same Ibadan before. Difference is not here o...

SUVs are not speed vehicles...they provide for ruggedness and where the roads are good, comfort, the very reason I got the "muscle". Sedans are built for speed because of the aerodynamics. I have done Ibadan severally with Pajero, Prado and even with "CRETA" so I know what I am talking about.

Ibadan by the way is the closest distance and i do it every week.

In the final analysis, we are all satisfied by what makes us happy.

Good day.

Nostradamus:
I love this post.

This is someone like me.

I wish they would have set the f00l ablaze to serve as deterrent to his colleagues.

LOL. Burning, shooting or adopting any form of brutal decapitation does not deter potential criminals. This is why some western countries abolished the death penalty.

There is a huge body of knowledge on this deterrence theory.

ndidibabe:
Regular car. Not efficient in any way. I travelled to Ibadan with a Camry muscle last year. I started panicking at top speed. The car no balance at all. I begin to envy the Acura and Benz on the road....

Bros, Corolla is very fuel efficient. I have done all manners from the "Bank type" to the "sports". Fuel efficiency is dope. "Muscle" may be slightly off on fuel efficiency (it is a V6 so it is understandable)

I got a "muscle" in January this year and drove it to same Ibadan in the course of the year (when my preferred SUV had A/C issues). I did 160/170 km/hr effortlessly and the car was super balanced. I may just concede that the Toyota Camry is not as fuel efficient as the Corolla but both makes gave/gives me peace of mind.

Meanwhile check the suspension of your car because i could have notched up 180km/hr without worry, except for the need to plan for how to manage any "unplanned incident" including tyre bursts.

ndidibabe:
Na cheap car na. Easy to sell....

Those cars are really efficient and most households will be happy to own one. It sells like pepper and onions. Cheap to maintain, fuel efficient and low cost.

kuntash:
he is lucky say no be Akwa Ibom

He is even luckier that SARS has ended.

He wouldn't have had the chance of a lipstick or a padded face.

Those guys do not need a reason to eliminate especially if you have no financial defence.

Lawsaite:
He said security men who shot in the air. Meaning it's not only one person that fired shots.
He went on to say a stray bullet had hit a vendor.


Then he concluded the stupendous lie with, the official that fired the shot has been suspended pending investigation.

Shey the bullet has tag ni? To know from whose gun it came from.

This lie is not only horrible but bloody. That governor should be held accountable.

I am a law student and in law Employers are vicariously liable, under the respondeat superior doctrine, for negligent acts or omissions by their employees in the course of employment (sometimes referred to as 'scope and course of employment').

That officer should be released immediately and the governor should bear the full brunt of the law.


But in Nigeria here, anything goes. It's always left for God to judge

Trust me, i am with you on this unfortunate death but which Governor are we talking about here?

I also hope you know that the master servant relationship will not apply if the servant has "been on frolic of his own"......

Just saying oo....

I know Bulgaria is in eastern Europe. But twice you said Bugaria.

DamZik:
That's another problem but those countries speak either English or arabic or both. Those two languages can't be an issue for a northern professor of that time.

Where did he buy fuel in the desert. What is the distance in the desert drive from start to finish?

Lanre4uonly:
This is serious.
Different news everyday.
I do hope the law would be allowed to take its full course.

You will soon hear "it is fake"

I give up on Nigeria

Fight for what?

I go just dress up, go Lekki just to fight?

Nna umuazi erika na Nairaland a...

This is not an umuazi matter. I want to vent on you since you refuse to see reason with logic and reason with normal people because of whatever you stand to gain. I can't keep responding to you because you simply piss me off. I'd rather convey my words by blows so they will sink such that you know how pained I am on the trash you keep posting about lost human lives. I don't guarantee I will beat you up, you may actually beat me in the process but God help either of us, because I feel huge venom against you right now. Please make me happy. Let's meet up. Thanks in advance.

Okoroawusa:
Nonsense and #Endsars...

I didn't see any new evidence in CNN report. The videos and pictures it used have been in circulation online since 20th of October 2020.

I stay in Lekki, Lagos. Can we agree to meet up somewhere lonely and fight. No third parties just you and me. Please send me a detailed location and i will meet you there. Just you and I.

lonelydora:
Let all Nigerians boycott Access Bank. Access bank is the most useless bank in Nigeria.


You people think we don't know why some of us have stayed with StanbicIBTC for more than 10 years now.

E don tey when I even abandoned my last 5k for them and walked. I never liked their cowboy style banking

omenka:
Lie from the pit of hell.

One should sue you for attempting to give someone else a title that rightfully belongs to Samuel Ioraer Ortom.

Oga I don't ever like to engage with you but i take this comment as a joke which i believe it is meant to be. I swear NO OTHER GOVERNOR can match Ikpeazu's mediocrity and idiocy rolled into one and laced with brazen thievery. Incompetence remains the hallmark of ALL the governors who have been in that state and sadly Otti who would have helped them come out of that thick fog was rigged out on two occasions. Come to think of it, it appears Abians deserve what they have been getting, and yes I am from that state. Devil's own state.

9jatriot:
If na Lagos this one happen now, we go start to de hear Tinubu this, Tinubu that.

Na lie. Dem go say the woman na IPOB and not obeying the laws of the people accommodating her. She should go back to her potopoto village and be doing as she like
