WoundedLamb:
He said he just needed you to market yourself and then asked you to call him the next morning . What's the issue?
Lol... why am I reading this differently...

Na wa. Yes, nobody owes the OP anything.

But is that the sort of response you expect from a friend?

If a friend that is down on his luck comes to you and he hoping to find anything to do to earn a living so he can eat, that’s would be your response

WallpaperGuy:
….

Don’t take it to heart, also when you notice people like this cut them off, avoid telling them about your life situation. In-short avoid a conversation. Radio silence. I would advise you to turn to God. Because ehn, e get as e be nowadays.

Nobody truly wants to see his brother earn a dollar and its not liking they would want to feed your when you come to them begging. The Spirit of wickedness is awake in these times, to the extent everyone sees this abnormality as normal.

AnonPoet:
…

So Op if I am understanding you, you are owing and you didn’t want pay a particular month installment cause you’d then be broke.

So your comfort is more important to you than paying off your debt/another person’s business solvency.

Nigerians can be real terrible people when it comes to paying what they owe I don’t even blame loan apps for dealing with an iron hand.

You lend someone just 10k then come back and tell us the story.

Crystalom3:
I'm only narrowing your point.

Single mothers especially this our 'I'm a bitch' generation won't raise kids well. It's already looking like a disaster to me

It is a time-bomb.

Bringing up children in single homes making it a trend in some feminist agenda. Poor innocent children.
It is a proven primary root cause of violent crime.

At this rate the future is violent crime.

brandsoncharlie:
Can't you see what's happening in northern part of Nigeria?
Those engaged in this vices that's destroying the country the more, where's their father?

God bless you.

You would find out that most people are blind to problems right under their noses. They would rather blame the government, when they are part of the problem.

All these (f) monikers supporting this to appease their ego for being unable to find husbands. Its not their fault most of them don’t think far.

Crystalom3:
are you talking about black Americans?

Black Americans were the case study.

It applies to the whole world bruh most especially Nigeria. You may argue you turned out alright (if you were raise by a single mum), I would assure you most kids from such homes don’t turn out alright.

KillIgbohoN0W:
No father.
These oloshos are creating problems that this country can't solve in 15 years time o.

*Comrade off your mic*

Jokes apart, there is a strong positive correlation between single mothers and crime rates.

It is well

Miyachi:
I doubt your friends phone was new. I've seen them repackage used phones in good condition and market them as new phones.
Their explanation about battery health is not tenable as 5% is too much. All new phone, as long as they were bought directly from Apple, should have 100% battery health.

The only way to guarantee that your phone is new if you buy it in Nigeria is not by the packaging, check the IMEI on any reputable IMEI check service and make sure it doesn't show as activated..

Of cuz he did IMEI check and all.

Remember iphone 11 was released in 2019, this happened this year. 2 years in storage would definitely affect its battery even if its a little.

Azzrael:
please do you use both,I want to know how the battery life compares and if the camera performance is all that different.

Buy 12. The camera of the 11 promax might be better than that of an ordinary iphone 12 but I don’t think it’s something you would notice except you are a professional photographer, even at that you’d discover the difference is mostly from software optimization.

The main reason I am even suggesting 12, was a little event that happened; a friend wanted to get a brand new iPhone I directed him to where I got mine for a good discount. He bought a new iphone 11 pro max only to get home and found the BH at 95% or there about, I told him to go back and change it.

It was a brand new iphone he was given, so you know there would be some back-and-forth when it comes to changing it. While after a session of raised voices and things, it turns out that the longer a brand new iphone (older model) stays in storage, it affects the BH and after 1.5 years, it is likely not to be at 100% BH when you tear the nylon. He had to add money to get a new iphone 12 pro which was at BH 100%.

Overall he was even happier cuz he felt Iphone 12 pro was better. Taking his opinion; someone that has held both phones; go with Iphone 12.

Nuttella:
Someone approaching 30s is still in her best time. Stop this age shaming and body shaming.

I thought you wrote about her being well above her 30s. You are right. My bad.

Nuttella:
My cousin is getting to her 30s and she is still single, they dont always approach them like that.

I’m sure she had suitors in the afternoon when whenever was still bright, maybe she wanted to focus on her career or she wasn’t just ready.

Nothing bad with that, It was her choice but now it is evening, wherever is now dim. If you tell any sensible man “No” when you are at your best time, shey make dey come carry you when your best time don pass ni .

If I don’t deserve you at your best, you don’t deserve me at later when you are not your best.

I think best to teach children about peace and conflict, when to physically fight back.

While I was in primary/secondary I was so small, but everyone tried their best to avoid a direct conflict with me, because I obviously I had anger issues. I was a very angry little boy

If you start problem with me, you better be ready physically and especially mentally cuz I would rock it out relentlessly with you.

I see my mates getting bully by a bigger students, all it takes is one good battle. You might get beat-up, but you get land an unforgettable offense. After that anybody that wants to cross you unnecessarily would think twice and you would earn yourself some respect.

50pseamer:
…

Op your problem is the foundation on which your marriage stands.

You want to erect a 21 storey building on a foundation meant for small boys-quarters.

If you didn’t do these things with your wife before marriage how can you expect it in marriage.

It is expected that before marriage each party must know what would be required: in short before marriage I may require my wife to sign a small contract cuz I like a ride or die; going to same church, raising children in the knowledge of God etc everything must be in our contract. If she doesn’t agree then I let her go.

But now that you are already married to an unwilling woman, it is an uphill climb. Very difficult, Only God can help you. Start engaging your God.

Shiloh 2021 has started, I would advise you to log-in into divine unction via this and reclaim your home.

The truth these children are simply are reflection of their parents.

How their parents treat their subordinates (maid, driver, gate-men), they see it and think its alright.

That is why i am in support of holding the parents of the mentioned kids liable.

Loreettaa:
Saw this on twitter. One mumu was saying a child can't write so articulately like this.

Don’t need the mumu, he didn’t go to a good school as such he couldn’t write one correct sentence when he was this boy’s age.

When you look close you would know this is from a kid, for one the language. There are also small mistakes that a kid would make.

AYNL:
and all you could talk about is sex

shey na only him dey enjoy it

and BTW, should sex be the only thing the girl can offer in return for everything he's done for her

shey the girl na olosho?

Bro why you go dey quote Iyaebe, you see say nobody quote am or follow am talk. Imagine trading something of value for something of zero value.

Abeg leave the senseless weyrey

yinkaOdutuyo:
………..

And again she's the type that want to wear what other ladies are wearing and want to up to standard.

And I didn't send any money to her.

You need a helper not a dependent to weigh you down, better make that clear to her with your actions. Yes she is in school, without any means to provide for herself that the more reason a sensible babe would manage herself not want whatever nonsense others have.

Better count your losses and move on. If she is not married to you never provide for her what her parents cannot, you have broken that rule already.

Please at bolded is this really the kind of person you want to settle with, the moment (God-forbid) you lack the capacity to provide she would be off to the next one.

KiNg0G:
Oh lord , any sîmp in my bloodline like this op that will cause me future grievance, let it miscarriage.

tete7000:
The only unfortunate thing is that the disorganization in the federal universities in Nigeria is the same level of disorganization you get in work environments in Nigeria and that is me talking out of experience. To survive in Nigeria, you must be mentally strong to withstand this level of madness.
My comment does not take it away that the lady is brilliant, only that she will need a great mental strength to survive work environment in this country, except she plans to work abroad.

No sensible person would want to work in Nigeria.

Even me sef don dey shoot my shot for International Business Consulting firms

Prisoner O.762 - Absent

flokii:
The Nigerian factor of neglect and lack of maintenance is what is killing our ivory towers.. you can't compare products of federal unis or state unis to private unis. The margin is too wide.

This just shows you are not informed. Do you know the number of private university graduates ruling the tech world in Africa, most of them are multi-millionaires in USD. Or it is your corrupt politicians you want to mentions as products of your “ivory towers”. Btw education there is very deplorable to say the least, I just don’t want to mention the name of the Federal University I attended, I was utterly disappointed; the cons were too much.

If only you know the standard of education in schools like Covenant, Landmark, even Babcock, you won’t write this nonsense.

Babcock - Paystack, Covenant - Piggyvest just to mention the most poplar from a very long list.

Again you are not informed all, educate yourself.

flokii:
.

You realize she couldn't make up to 1.0 cummulative grade point average after 2-3 yrs right? that should tell you something is fundamentally wrong.

This is baseless, Educational system in Federal schools are flawed na who sabi cram pass and it could be she wasn’t just serious or found the environment unconducive.

After my undergraduate studies I could count the number of students from my set that were dragging draw (2.2), only to go aboard for further studies in schools of global repute and they came out topping their class there with distinction.

Quality of education pass quality of education, some people are not just built for this stress and nonsense you call education in Nigeria.

Poor boy Thank God the Principal was dutiful in carry out his/her responsibility and calling the parents severally.

If he/she had procrastinated it would have been another matter. Being diligent and doing things timely can save anyone a ton of headache.

flokii:
She was withdrawn from one of the top three unis in Nigeria.. alas here she is graduating as overall best in one of the glorified secondary schools called private unis in Nigeria.

For UI, UNILAG & OAU to withdraw your admission means you're not mentally fit to be in higher institution.. congrats to her all the same.

You are talking nonsense.

I have schooled in one of the top 3 private universities in Nigeria and I have also schooled in one of the top 3 Federal Universities in Nigeria and I would tell you these private universities trump Federal universities in terms of quality of education.

The poor organization in Federal University is enough for a poor performance. After my studies in one i swore never again.

Ogun state government is one of the worst in Nigeria. Instead of the Governor to address real issues, he is always engaging in trivialities

The road to hell is x100 better than roads in Ogun state. Would he repair them? No. What about allowing organizations/corporates to repair them? No. Instead they make unreasonable demands from anyone that shows any interest.

Where do we get such people from sef

Rightmsn:
on a serious note, demand an explanation from her. If possible, involve both families. Then most importantly discontinue staying under one roof until everything is settled.

what kind of explanation does he need from her?

Instead he should demand an explanation from himself, of all the women on earth why he married a greedy, wicked woman that can do anything for money.

Given the right opportunity she would definitely kill him if good money is involved.

I am guessing he attends a private school, tell his mother not to allow such slide.

She should pay the school a visit the following day and ask to see the proprietor or headmaster/headmistress.

She would be met with resistance but not to worry Nigerians respond well to two things money and violence. Make she display the latter. She shouldn’t back down until disciplinary action is taken against the teacher or she should get him/her arrested. She should let the teacher know that if anybody as much look at her child wrongly she would be back

You can’t be taking out your frustrations on a child, removing his front teeth.

I can vaguely remember long time ago in Bethlehem, I was in Primary 1. This oloriburuku teacher would line us up at lunch time and be removing all the animals (meat/fish) in our food. Me wey to eat food without animal na struggle. The day i had enough and told my mum. She no even consider for once say her baby boy might be talking nonsense. Next day she drove to the school to see the headmistress. That was the end of lunch time harassment

Sidenote: Y’all should always listen to your children even if what they have to say seem ridiculous or seemly unimportant.

nextBIGthing:
………

From what i read, Oga this girl has money. She needs a cure for greed not help on how to save.

If you have to ask yourself if you should continue then you know the answer already

Still available

Banks in Nigeria are lazy institutions over pampered by Emefiele.

Every decision Emefiele makes is always in favour of Banks to the deterrent of its customers, it’s a pattern that is getting very suspicious and it is very unfair really.

In a country like Nigeria, where a Government doesn’t need provide means of livelihood for its people, you make policy to be eating with fork and knife the little they are struggling to make under harsh economic conditions

This Nigeria is not safe at all, If a group of People in black suddenly attack me in the safety of my privacy; my first instinct would be to defend myself with whatever comes handy and I’d advise anybody to do same.

Life no get duplicate, you can’t suddenly burst into my privacy without a warrant threatening my life.

How do i even know for sure that they are truly EFCC, cuz here they are stealing and beating up innocent people.

JohnBorder:
My friend the money entered my account I didn't requested for it. I didn't even noticed till I started receiving lots of mgs. I can not pay money which I didn't requested for, let them do their worst thank you everyone for ur concern.

Oga return their money. It’s not yours, they have legal grounds against because they can claim it was sent to you in error.

Refusing to pay up when your account was wrongly credit is a fraudulent act punishable by prison term.

SlyfoxxjReturns:
She never had friends. She’s just finding out.

100/100

It is very hard to defend a Nigerian, they always evasive when they know they have a fault in the matter.

Y’all noticed how the OP refused to answer a simple “No or Yes” question if he received a credit on his bank account to the tune of that amount.

OP if that money was paid to your bank account, go and return their money.

Hope he knelt down for prayers, baba’s problems are too numerous not to be the work of village people.

Lovalovaphunmz:
So wots ur gain if ur so called cousin remained single?? Perhaps she realised her mistakes and seek God for forgiveness and God gave her Anoda chance bt u chased the man away..... Wot u did is pure wickedness my dear. U could av just left the man marry her since he willingly chose to come back for her

I have no business with her life, like i said before if it were any other guy i would just tell him to follow his heart but a man like a brother came to me for advice. So I am supposed to tell him lies and shove a hook down his throat because its about my cousin? He heard the truth from me and made his decision, which i think is a good one.

Nobody deserves someone that treats them with utter disregard, my cousin was most probably going to say Yes to him cause God’s current blessing upon his life. Would she have said yes to him 5/6 years ago - Hell no.

Whether God forgives or not, people should always live a life considering the present and future consequences of their actions. You have changed is not a “get out of jail” free card you can play at your convenience. Be humble and treat others with respect.
