Give the monthly allowance to your Mom or sisters. If you have been giving them already, increase it with the amount you are planning to give this leech.
This is 2024 A.D!

Thank me later.

The plantain is getting rotten but we assume it is getting ripe. What a society that idolize and glorifies nonsense.

Which part of Badagry? Might refer someone

Doctors don't want to be kept away; they need patronage. So, na them run am make them keep the apples away from us.

But seriously, even doctors self no de chop one apple per day. Everything don cast!

LAMATA needs to give NRC licence not the other way round because Lagos rail is run more efficiently than Nigeria railway. You can imagine up till now Nigeria railway is still tearing tickets for people while LAMATA started with e- ticketing right from inception.

You can book online with Lagos-Ibadan Train Service (LITS), operated by NRC and just check in and enjoy your ride. I still used it two weeks ago while taking a tourist to Olúmọ Rock, Abeokuta.

Red goes where? Blue goes where?

Red: Èbúté Meta to Alagbado, 8 stations in total

Blue: CMS to Okokomaiko. It terminates at Mile 2 presently. Mile 2 to Okokomaiko coming soon.

Green: Coming soon, from the Lekki/Victoria Island corridor to connect with the Blue Line at CMS.

I was on the test ride for the Red Line last month. A nice initiative it is.

I can't wait to take my local and foreign tourists round Lagos on the Blue and Red lines.

Which building at ishashi bustop. Is it that former augusta international college building besides prime mart?

Thats the only large facility I think can host such in that place.

They should post pictures let's know.

I'm guessing Augusta College too. The school has been in hibernation for some time now. And I saw new signage there (covered) last week. Maybe they are pivoting into higher education.

Gather some travel history on your passport first. Try travelling to Benin Republic and Togo/Ghana for a start. It's better to apply for visas with travel history.

No be this same school do recruitment last year or so wey we apply and no hear anything till now?

This is a monitor lizard, not an alligator! Monitor lizards are common in forested and swampy areas of Nigeria.
We don't have alligators in Nigeria.

Please are there universities doing medicine and surgery in Benin Republic?

Public or private?

Informative and detailed. Well done

This is a nice read. Well done, Op.
Publishing papers is a good way to demonstrate mastery of one's research area in the academia.

LASU has a department of Portugese and English. I think they have some short courses too. You may want to explore that avenue also.

Name of school please? Let me do my own little research. I'm a bit familiar with Họgbonu

My Salary is a little above #100, 000 naira, My friends know I am working which brings enormous pressure on me, They think it is a high paying job because of the Corporate dressing and all.

I don't Know if it is the hardship from this era, but now 4 out of every phone calls someone receives is usually them asking you to lend them money. Currently self I am skeptical of answering phone calls. Work Colleagues also do not spare you in this regard.

My problem now is I am too soft hearted, Any small story and I am already heading to my bank app to do transfer for,

Beginning of June, money I lent to a total number of 7 different people was running into almost 60,000 naira.
At the start of July, Only two people have paid me back (5000 & 4000)

Because of that I promised myself not to lend anyone money again from my salary, but Just this morning I got a call from someone I know , he was crying to me of his salary being delayed at work.
He pleaded with me to lend him #10,000 which I obliged, Knowing fully well I wont get my money back (He has borrowed 8k from me before without paying back)

I think something is wrong with me, I can even go to loan app to borrow and gift a friend if I don't Have

Same borrowing habit almost ruined my Dad, it destroyed his friendship with a close pal, he borrowed his friend #800,000 back IN 2011 when money still had value, the friend refused paying and that crumbled his business for a while.

My Mom have warned me if I continue, I might experience same.

I really need to change...
If every one should pay me money they have owed me, I would be able to buy honda baby boy
This is a bad habit I need to stop.

A suggested solution: Install Piggyvest, Cowrywise, or any other savings app on your phone.
Set up Safelock (using Piggyvest as an example) and lock the part of your salary you can do without every month. Set a long period, perhaps 3 months or more. Do this every month once you get your salary.
Once you are asked for money, you can honestly say you don't have it.

Alternatively, if you are on pension at your place of work, set up additional voluntary contributions (AVC) to be taken from your net pay at source every month. Take ownership of your own finances.
I have been there before. Spent (wasted) most of my money on others while I was still earning salary many years ago. Nothing really to show for it!

I can't count the number of times I have seen Bukka Hut vacancies here. It tells a lot about the culture of the company. Why is there so much employee attrition? Why don't people stay?

If the school has a student portal for academic profiles (most do), you can access the portal and download the profile with the matric number and other login details if you have them.

Queen favour Atoe emerge the new most beautiful campus queen.

On the night full of glitz and glamour, the campus models worldwide organization crown their most beautiful campus queen winner and runner ups with queen favour being the latest winner who would represent nigeria in Paraguay.

What's the meaning of this? Na by force?

MKO obviously didn't groom his sons for leadership... This is why succession planning is very vital. The concept of "first born" controlling everything has done a lot of harm to families as well, cos what if the first born isn't responsible?

Imagine how the entire family's wealth went down the drain after the father's demise. Na wa ooo.

Spot on! I wrote about this in my MSc thesis on succession planning in family owned businesses, citing the case of the Abiola family. Many family owned businesses (FOB) in Nigeria have failed and many will still do so due to our inordinate desire to have a progeny succeed us in business, whether they are trained, interested, experienced or competent in the business or not.
Polygamous practices, insistence on first borns taking over, not knowing when to exit (either through retirement, management succession, or outright sale of the business) continues to take many FOBs under!

It's better to avoid snakes than avoiding people Oga. This is one of the most wicked snakes on earth. Yoruba call it Agbadu. They are very aggressive and fast, very fast o. They can attack unprovoked, they can stand toe to toe with you if triggered.

This is actually small though but still, you cheat death o.

Àgbádú apọ́ngbọ̀n! Oh, those days in the rural parts of Abẹ́òkúta! A dangerously fast, black, long, and venomous snake! Op is fortunate.

Nice pictures. Love the theme of the event too

A working couple. They can now continue working where real work exists

Many years ago....
No bathing after 9 p.m

The exchange is worse now. 1000 naira goes for 430 CFA as at last week when I was there. Changes in the dollar exchange rate affect it too.

I'm planning a group tour of Benin, Togo, and Ghana soon. Anyone interested should let me know.

Whenever you make any complaints to any disco, ensure you use email and always copy the NERC. They will respond better when they the NERC is involved. Speaking from experience.

Please send a PM if you are currently in Porto Novo.

It is dependent on the location.

Even if GTBANK, UBN, and UBA join body, the money never still reach! Wahala go dey o!

Start selling pure, original honey.

Do your market survey first.

Thank me later.
