Politics / Re: Monarch: How Militants Linked To Soldiers’ Killing Chased Me Out Of My Kingdom by Henrypraise: 7:01pm On Mar 24 |
DevilsEqual: The soldiers, were not on a peace mission, they were sent there by a militant leader who somehow could command them. I am sure the military is unraveling alot hence they are still there in the village. The killings were done at Okuama, why will the military be burning and killing at igbomorotu? The urhobos don't kill and behead. It's the ijaws and militants who kill and behead... The truth of what happened in Okuama will come out one day... This deposed king has not said the entire truth, somehow he hopes to gain after all these unrest. |

People who plait and cut their children hair will see this and also condemn it. Did their children request for their hair to be plaited or cut? In as much as the parents are convinced the steps they are taking is to equip and protect their children for the better world then its fine. However the process should be with clean equipments. Some parents rub bleaching creams on their children, yet it's seen as civilization. |

BentizilL0: You are just pained for no reason, do you know without fg backing, the fulani terrorists evading farm lands in Nigeria are nothing? But they have fg backing hence they are something... Hamasaki has Iran,Egypt a d Nigerian Muslims as allies... unfortunately for you guys, your support this time is worthless, you guys are trying to leave revenge now for Allah, but you stoned an innocent Deborah and beat that Keke man who wants to go fend for his family because you had power and you had fg backing, at the end of the day power prevails, and same thing will prevail in this Israel Palestine war, not power of Allah, but power of weapons.

Romance / Re: Four Weird Things I Find Very Attractive On A Lady. The Fourth One Is Strange. by Henrypraise: 1:47pm On Sep 28, 2023 |
Toks2008: There is nothing attractive about these things, your mind has been wired to think a woman putting on these things has some mystery about her, maybe seexual prowess, maybe confidence or some kind of feminine ruthlessness. It's those traits you are attracted to and your mind is tricking you to believe a woman who wears these ornaments, possess these abilities. These ornaments truly stir desires and were part of ancient practice by housewifes to stimulate interest of their husband's to keep the matrimonial bed shaking... Soon ancient oloshos copied the scheme to scam men and remind them of what their wives used in stimulating their interest, when pious wives learnt their husband's were now glued to these ornaments, they stopped using them, and devised the mystery of being quiet... The amount of mystery that loomed from being quiet wives was so huge, that men whose wives became very quiet had to begin using all manners of tactics to please them to speak or be expressive. You will bear me witness that many posh oloshos and escorts now uses this mystery of quietness, it adds some kind of elegance to the mystery, you ask what is wrong and she says nothing with a smiling face, you begin to impress by spending... till your eyes gets open that she is working on your mind... Point is, your mind is attracted to the mysterious woman, and not those ornaments... 2 Likes |

Crime / My Experience With The Nigeria Police Force Today. by Henrypraise: 12:20am On Sep 27, 2023 |
When a catholic bishop said the judges of the Supreme court are not from Singapore but scions of same badly bred Nigerians, some persons nodded in unionism because their ox was in the fight, not really because we hoped to do better or adapt to cause change. Once same Nigerians are opporturned to stand in the podium of power to make decisions, the wrong choices are always made. Today, I was in a shuttle on my way to koka coming from Asaba Airport, as we approached Mariam Babangida junction, some rag tag looking group of government armed men flagged us, I quickly scanned for badges, squad title and possible name/ number tags, the only remarkable identity I saw was anti cult vest donned by a gun wielding, young "officer". While I was doing my mental scan, I became at ease when he spoke calmly and explained they are on a survey mission and if the shuttle driver wouldn't mind, he should pack and stop for a few survey questions. Immediately this "officer" spoke calmly, the guys inside the shuttle with me raised their voices and became instantly rebellious, I reclused myself mentally from the revolt and watched the psychological defeat of Nigerians who everyday cry for better synergy and treatment between civil and forced individuals... I bet if the "officer" had spoken in the normal NPF fashion, no one would have been motivated to say pim. The best would have been to murmur and curse under one's breath... It was when the shuttle developed fault just a few meters away that I knew all the talk of "I am late for work" bla bla bla were just shalaye and yen yen yen put together, people who were in a hurry couldn't come down to board another shuttle for 100 naira... Everyone including yours sincerely had to wait for the driver to trouble shoot. So in a nutshell, do you think Nigerians will be more responsible and cooperative when talked to with respect and courtesy Or rebellion will increase 108 Likes 15 Shares

Nairaland / General / Re: What's A Little Thing That Actually Tells You A Lot About Someone? by Henrypraise: 10:59pm On Sep 25, 2023 |
VinnyBaba: I don't think that guys comment was really about the cost of the footware, it should be more about the cleanliness of the footware, how it is donned, the fitting and how the wearers feet looks. For me feet and fingers tell a lot about an individual. Whatsapp status upload and social media comments also give important clues. In this Era of chatting, how a person types, also give out clues, do they type in abbreviations? (I can never hold on to the words of someone who types in abbreviations). Do they type with lots of errors? (Errors now is not sentence errors, but spelling errors)... sentence error can mean interference of first language (I enjoy typing in pidgin), but you see spelling errors, it's lack of knowledge, especially when coming from an individual who acts all posh... Then lastly, someone who makes sly comments, especially during jokes, is a big indication of a narcissistic... the antidote? I hold up a mirror and reflect your sly jokes back at you...

Family / Re: Should I Call Off My New Relationship Because Of This?? by Henrypraise: 11:32pm On Sep 14, 2023 |
UnconventionalT: One of the saddest misconceptions plaguing ladies of marriageable age their own actions of holding back, if a you are being asked or dating a man above 30 and you feel cooking for him is you granting him spousal privileges, then aunty by all means stay on your own. These same privileges you granted men who pillaged you for free with no intentions... And here you see a man saying it as he wants it and you are raising demonic standards against him. See, leave him and let him go search for a lady to offer him "spousal" benefits in relationships, you too should go look for a man who will love you for not giving him spousal benefits until after marriage... Life is not so hard... Or do you have virginity to give to him in marriage Cooking and being caring towards your man is not what should be requested, it's not spousal benefit, how does he get to know the stuff you are made inside if he doesn't see these aspects? You waste countless number of hours talking irrelevant things and avoid actually acting relevant things... You guys should separate... Leave the demonic pentecostal brother and find a holy catholic or Anglican ex seminarian... Both of you should be serving each other holy communion and bible verses... |

It's your choice to be modest or immodest, don't change his destiny because you want to expose your flesh... allow his reformer zest build up inside him, don't infuse your own thought into him... |

Westerhoffe: As proud as he sounds, that's the taught process of many Nigerian females, just because a man is saying it out loud is the reason you are bringing his sister's into it. I am sure his sisters are not single mothers also. Single mother's made choices just as everyone of us and we must continually live with the consequences of our choices... The single mom has a choice to make... I am sure she also have a guy down her street asking her out but he probably is a bolt driver, and she will weigh her choices and make a decision base on what suits her present and her future. . |

They are the cankerworms eating the fabrics of morality that holds the sanity of humanity together, the guy irritates me sounding so pompous in his wretched and myopic mind.

However with proper planning he can make them useful, open up a laundry shop and let the elder ones work in it whilst the younger ones go to school from the proceeds of all their combined earnings.

Tumbuleke: Manipulation is one reason why a man will write a woman's name on a property. The man who couldn't get a property in over 20 years only managed to get one in Nigeria in less than 7 months after your friend came into his life, that's nice, I guess your friend must have properties littered everywhere in Nigeria to herself...

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Share Your Experience Physically Going To Submit Your C.v In A Company by Henrypraise: 3:22pm On Dec 13, 2021 |
Many Nigerians are very sympathetic to the plights of struggling Nigerians, I wish I could relay my experience in words so I can give normal warri body demonstrations. So sometime in 2017, things where terrible for me, very very terrible and I kept swinging like a pendulum in and out of depression, I left my little abode in warri Delta State and set sail to set up camp with cousins in festac Lagos, I relaid to them my mission in Lagos, to jejely submit my CV in as many companies as possible. Armed with the little change I could dust and gleaned from my malnourished bank account and leaking pockets, I was optimistic, I already made alot of photocopies of my CV and also edited to standard... My cousins gave me directions how I will arrive "ligali", I carefully jotted notable landmarks, I wore a well ironed shirt to tocked in a blue jeans trouser, my bag hanging loosely behind me like a hunters bag, I bounced through "Amuwo odofin" just as I was to cross the express, someone tapped me by my shoulders, waived a not so clear i.d card in my face, introducing himself as a police officer and telling me to follow him, with my rude warri accent and bass voice, I asked "follow you go where? Why I wan follow you?" He said what do I have in my bag, I quickly opened it, he saw many envelopes, brought one out, I allowed him read it and told him I was going job hunting, he looked at me and said "good luck", I didn't even care if he was a police or not, i jejely continued my journey... Whilst the story is very long, I arrived at ligali and asked a police man for pan ocean company, dude asked if there was a problem, I said no and he just gave me directions without any qualms, at pan ocean, the security didn't allow me walk in but honestly they were sympathetic, the security man and lady told me to reach out through the web site, they gave me their number to call if I had difficulty and that they won't allow me in because they were protecting their own garri... I walked down and got to halliburton, same thing, the security guys there liked my warri pidgin and one bought me "expensive" indomie, they encouraged me, one even pointed to a staff for me to go meet with and talk to, trying to talk to the staff, he kept walking away and pretended he was making a call, me sef i press am leave am when e shakara con too much for my body. When I got home, I had dropped 11 cvs with security men and spent about 4k for tfares. The next day, I told my cousins I needed to go to where there were petroleum depots, he gave me directions to apapa and "Abule Ado", I walked round Abule Ado dropping cvs for safety officer job, I made sure I asked for the safety officer/ manager and I met with them, in all honesty, I never received any bad word from anyone, they encouraged me, took my numbers and I dropped my CV, infact I went to a company depot, I have forgotten the name of the company, but they had red and ash colour to their painting/ coverall, the safety manager, took time to listen to me, offered me a cold drink on that Thursday afternoon, dipped his hands in his pocket and gave me about 3,000 naira, he said he remembered he did what I was doing, he said prayers and told me he had no vacancy, he didn't get my number and didnt give his number, but he was almost in tears... I went somewhere again and these guys where talking to me like they knew me from Adam, one was saying abeg help me call sulemon, it was latter I called someone and told him I came here to look for work o, he said he thought I was a staff, he directed me to another guy who took my CV and said its only the MD that hires people, I should come the next day to meet the MD.... There was a depot under construction, so many mopols were around, and people on suits, I joined them in their walking entourage and discussion, they didn't mind me, they were concerned about a puddle of water and mud, funny enough, no one even noticed I was not a member of their team, it was when I discovered their Waka just start, na so I press am leave them, I got one guys number and told him I needed to check something. Okay, nothing much happened from the Lagos trip, but I felt happy and revigored at the encouragement, God bless that man who gave me that money and prayer; humans are not as bad as we sometimes feel or hear from the news, that was my first and only time being in lagos, I left Lagos the next day for Ibadan and back to warri... If I had remained in Lagos and kept pressing, visiting and revisiting those areas, with my mind focused, I should have gotten one of those jobs, I also enjoyed the carefreeness of people, little wonder it's easily taken advantage of by terrible individuals... Whilst I still work on contract basis with companies in warri, I would have love to enjoy working as a permanent staff to a company, I am very open for any offer... 88 Likes 7 Shares |
