Christianity EtcRe: Have You Ever Seen Juju/jazz In Action? Come In And Share Your Experience by Holysholay:
I was fortified when I was young (by my grandfather who is an herbalist), i can carry snakes, scorpions, wasp etc. When any of such bite anyone, people starts looking for me to use incantation to remove the sting (it works perfectly). I can even stop stomach ache and headache with incantations.
I used to put on a ring, with this ring no evil dear come near us. To test the ring, i touch anything with my hand, remove d ring, said some incantations nd drop the ring. You know what? my hand will never reach that thing again.
I grew up and willfully forget these things, due to Christianity.
Was surprised after several years, a secondary school friend called and was begging me to give him juju… lol… I laughed tired. I said I have forgotten all, but this guy did not believe me.

InvestmentCheck Your Unclaimed Dividend by Holysholay(op):
Use the link below to check your unclaimed Dividend:

http://www.sec.gov.ng/non-mandated/

Only requires your first name and surname



Note: all investors whose name(s) appear, are advised to URGENTLY download and fill their respective Registrar's e-mandate form and submit same at the nearest branch of their Bank or Registrar to register for the collection of their unclaimed dividends and subsequent dividends electronically; as well as for the proceeds from their secondary market transactions, to be credited to their preferred Bank Account (Direct Cash Settlement).

The Commission also wishes to remind the investing public on the deadline of 30th June, 2017, which will mark the end of issuance of physical dividend warrant, with a view to mitigating the risks associated with physical dividend warrants and improving investors experience.

Furthermore, the 30th June, 2017 deadline will see the end of free registration of e-dividend, being bank-rolled by the Commission since the inception of the exercise in November, 2015. Hence, members of the investing public are encouraged to urgently key into the on-going free registration.

Nairaland GeneralWhat Is Bitcoin? by Holysholay(op): 11:52am On Jan 14, 2017
I ain't a participant of MMM but i read this morning that a lot of people are confused about BITCOIN the more they tend to find out what its all about and how to purchase it. Do one sell it to get money back?

If you have an idea and/or important info on bitcoin, kindly educate us in less than 2 sentences. Epistle may only confuse the public the more.
Nairaland GeneralAmazing Letter From A 4 Yr Old Daughter To Daddy And Mummy by Holysholay(op):
Came home from work very tired yesterday. I was thinking about FUOYE protest and lack of money at hand. Then my 4 year old daughter ran to me and said "Daddy! spell king and queen". Initially thought I should shout at her but I managed to spell these 2 words. After some time, she came and requested that I shd spell mother which I did, I tried to gaze at what she was writing but she hid it.

This morning, I dropped her at school, got home, laid on the couch and found this amazing and hilarious letter:

OneDay there was a nanny and a Boy
The nanny is my mother
And the boy is my daddy
I love them I love all my family
I love Steven to nanny and
daddy you are a king and queen
I love you fourever Good day
To you mom and daddy I love you
Fourever I love you


The letter makes me so happy, Love you too My Loveth.

LordIsaac:
My dear, you are on track. You have a clear vision. Start first, then when you get to the bridge, you'll cross it. However, flee 2.2 or 3rd class!
That's true, flee 2.2. Presently @ Nigerian Federal Institutions, they no longer want to engage 2.2, 3rd class candidates as lecturers, even if such candidate has Masters.
CareerRe: How To Be A Scholar And Famous Lecturer by Holysholay: 12:09pm On Dec 23, 2016
May your dreams be fulfilled. Amen.
You can become a famous scholar by 1. your contributions to knowledge (publication of articles) and 2. being an authority in your field (PhD holders). Therefore, work and focus on your studies, obtain your BSc, MSc nd proceeds to PhD level. During your MSc degree, your supervisor will sure train you how to write papers for publication. However, you may start writing during your BSc seminar nd project, a 400 L student of Unilorin under my mentorship was able to publish an article even before he obtained his BSc.

EducationRe: Is Becoming A Phd Holder Possible In Your 20s by Holysholay: 7:40am On Dec 10, 2016
I started PhD at age 27 (unilorin, 2009), obtained BSc and MSc also @ Unilorin. I should have finished at age 30, but had to travel abroad to start PhD afresh in 2011. Finally obtained my PhD at age 31.

So it is possible. Remember, had to waste 1 year on NYSC before MSc.
Nairaland GeneralDriver's Licence: Price Increase And Expiration Now 5 Years by Holysholay(op): 9:10pm On Dec 07, 2016
A friend came to me tonight to inquire how he can obtain the Nigerian driver's licence. We called the FRSC office and internal revenue services, we were shocked when we are told the fee as from yesterday is now 22, 000 (for new applicant) and that expiration is now 5 years.

Note, this may not be the official fee by FRSC, it also include all the documents needed to support the application.

Some1 should please help to verify.
LiteratureRe: Please, Recommend a good book for a depressed fellow. by Holysholay: 11:19am On Dec 01, 2016
Daboomb:
Here is something for you to meditate on:


```Ur Time Will Come!

Kenya is 2 hrs ahead of Nigeria, but it does not mean that Nigeria is slow, or that Kenya is fast. Both countries are working based on their own "Time Zone."

Someone is still single. Someone got married and 'waited' 10 yrs before having a child, there is another who had a baby within a year of marriage.

Someone graduated at the age of 22, yet waited 5 years before securing a good job; and there is another who graduated at 27 and secured employment immediately !

Someone became CEO at 25 and died at 50 while another became a CEO at 50 and lived to 90 years.

Everyone works based on their 'Time Zone',
People can have things worked out only according to their pace.

Work in your “time zone”.

Your Colleagues, friends, younger ones might "seem" to go ahead of you.
May be some might "seem" behind you.

Don't envy them or mock them, it's their 'Time Zone.'
You are in yours!

Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself. All things shall work together for your good.
You’re not late …

Recall that Steve Jobs (Late Apple CEO) was hired and fired by Apple Corp. He later became the owner and employer of those who fired him at first!

The Fall of a man is not the end of his Life!
It is adversity like this, that proves the "man" in you.

If still in doubt that "Life can change", consider the following:


In 1985, Dasuki arrested Buhari.
In 2016, Buhari arrested Dasuki.
If you were Dasuki and l told you that would happen, wont you just laugh?

In 1995, Al Mustapha arrested Obasanjo on the order of General Abacha.
In 1999, Obasanjo arrested Al Mustapha and he was jailed for 8 years.
You see Life?

In 2005, Diego Simeone was just an ordinary squad player under Fernando Torres as Club Captain.
In 2016, Diego Simeone is now Fernando Torres coach. Torres now takes orders from Simeone.
You see, as long as their is life, their is Hope!

In the 90's under Jerry Rawlings regime, Dr. Spio Gabriel was the Minister of Communications and John Mahama was his "deputy".
Today John Mahama is the President and has employed his former boss ....as Minister.
So you see, this disappointment is not the end of your Life.

You will rise again!
Smile and learn the lessons.

And remember,
You are not early ... you’re very much On time!

*RESPECT YOUR OWN TIME ZONE*`


I hope you are inspired?

Daboomb!
You are awesome, can we be friends pls.

PoliticsRe: Kwara Youths Shout "Ole" At Government House In Kwara (Video) by Holysholay: 4:02pm On Jul 10, 2016
Geopolitical is different from geographical Zone. Dont be confused, Kwarans are yoruba and belong to South West. The present Emir of Ilorin finished from Offa Grammar School, am not sure the emir can even speak Hausa - Dr OS Ayanda (A native of Ajasse Ipo - Kwara State, i put Isanlu isin, Ajasse Ipo, Ilala on wikipedia)
