Do you have a friend called tina?

Not that I can remember. Tina doesn't really ring a bell.

MrSoftlife:


If you haven't apply you can reach out.

Hello. Can I have your whatsapp number

ollyontheboard:


LOOL, i don't know oh, I also applied to George brown college and seneca but Mohawk gave me admission. I'm still waiting for visa approval, but in the meantime i just wanted to find other people going to the college and connect with them

Hello, please I'll like to ask some things about Mohawk?

What are the specific requirements for Nigerian applicants?

Do they require Secondary school marked sheets?

I studied English for my B.A. though my work experience is in HR ,and I am applying for Global Business Mgt. Would that be an issue?

cutieme:

Pls can you help with the address of the academy,thanks?

It's Builder's Hub Academy at ifako bus stop on your way to Ogudu. You can Google for the address.

Hello everyone, please can anyone direct me as to how I can apply to Sault college, since it has to be through an agent.

I would appreciate your assistance with this, thanks.

tosins:

Proserpina:

I am good. Thanks.
Just been busy; taking my own advice.

Dimaya:


that's actually terrible advice. The only person who will find you will be PHCN bill collector

PHCN bill find you at your office, at the cinema or wherever you are enjoying yourself. You assume living your life means staying indoors.

DenreleDave:


Ahnie I meant no insult...

Is that a skit or you mean pap ń oil is a meal?

How does one eat that?

DenreleDave:

Zupay:

Shouldn't forget Cameroon pepper and okpei

ahnie:
The gods visited

One of my favourite dishes.

jmoore:


Meaning?

Meaning he should miss anything out from the food ingredients. Ogiri, palm oil, fufu...very important

jmoore:
Victoria Ogechi Chuks said Something is happening now and I am confused on how to proceed.

A guy contacted me last week, appparently he has an introduction or some marriage rite ceremony coming up. He bought a carton of catfish from me to be sent to his fiancée.

I am at the park now and i juust had this unusual urge to call the receiver first before sending which is not something I do, I will only inform you via text that's if the receiver is my direct customer.

So I called the girl, she picked up, I informed her that there's a package for her from her man, she asked what it was, I told her, next she hissed and started talking with a lady in the background.

The call was still ongoing, she said in Igbo " odi ka (the guy's name) dị iberibe, then in English, was that what we told him, bring cash let's buy ourselves ona ezuzugari, the other people in the background started talking siimultaneously all pointing to the fact the guy is stingy and he doesn't trust them enough to give them the cash.

Me I had to start shouting hello, hello, hello, the girl came back to the phone and said to me, " carry that rubbish and give back to whoever bought it"

Whoever?
Your man whom you're getting married to?

There's been a lot of things going through my mind since then to be honest.

The guy said I should not mind her and wait small that he will talk to her then I will send.

Omoh this one wants to use his two legs and enter one chance toorh e no concern me shaa.

He should also buy the tomatoes and pepper and send. Let him not forget to send salt.

JovialJune:



It is the same you mistakes of men that insult women that ooze offensive smell down there, rotten fish smell and other nonsense saying they hardly bath, yet you want women to condone dirty stinky disgusting smell of men like Op's husband that hates bathing abi?

And your silly comeback is to use money as an excuse for a filthy man? In this 21st century that 99.999999% women work and earn a living? Either you are the Op's husband or you are also a filthy smelling slimey man with a terrible body odour.

Finish him!

Just live your life and be busy with things that matter while developing yourself. The right person will find you.

First step to complicating your child's life...

1. Make his surname different from yours.

When you face challenges later in life because of this, you will reminder the day you changed it and regret.

Dickcap:
Good morning Nairalanders
I would like to seek your advice. I'm presently working at a farm company where I hold the post of Assistant Manager. Forget the position I hold oo cause the salary is less than 60k.
Due to the harsh economy, we are currently facing, the CEO said he does not have the power to pay our salary again and that we should find a way to generate income to pay our salary.
It won't be hard for my team to generate income to pay salary but we would have problems with the CEO cause he's the kind of person that loves taking over any money we make from the farm

Please resign. It's a setup. What is after generating funds, he takes over the money and does not give you guys, or he gives you guys peanuts from it? Then you would have wasted money on transportation fare and water your time.

Starhearts:


U mean say 4 d first three months... u no dey receive gbola again?

How does that stop anything?

Angelfrost:


Calling repeatedly doesn't make any difference nor sense!

If someone doesn't want to talk to you, they don't want to talk to you! Simple!

Someone like me will never be bothered because my phone is always on 'Silent', not even 'Vibration'!

You go call Taya till you have the common sense to send a text or WhatsApp message!

Not everyone jokes with his or her time!

Seems you owe a lot.

babajero:
you are a nag.

Lol. That's one thing I'm not.

doggedfighter:
For some time now I have reading very old threads here. Some before 2010


Going through the quality of conversations and levels of interaction filled with empathy, deep

respect, clear headed and well thought out advices then it dawned on me how things have deteriorated here.


Many badly raised, love- lorn, emotionally and psychologically damaged social mis- fits on here.


It's sad !

In plain English...many people without sense disguising like they have

If you have good team members, they will put you through.

Dogshow:
Gone are the days where HRs or Recruiters employ jobseekers based on their skills, expertise and competencies. We are in an era whereby most Nigerian jobs are based on recommendations, referrals, amongst others.

Mine was even before I graduated from school that I've been rolling out multiple CVs due to the fear of the unknown, and not a single feedback up until now. I really do not know maybe there's something I'm just not doing right or is a Nigeria factor happening to everybody.

I would like fellow nairalanders to share their experiences.

Yep. My present job.

Ednut03:
Yeah. There are Nigerian Men in America who has not had a decent chance at sex for years. The only chance at sex they get is when they visit Naija once in a while. You ain't even getting a white chick to talk to you or give you her number if you ain't ridiculously good looking, dress well and speak really high.

Same apply to a woman and it's even worse. Men are thirsty, unlike Women, and she might get sexed and few attentions until the sex lasts. But she's not going to get any commitment if she doesn't match the beauty standard. So, she will be lonely too. Nigerian Men are still better positioned than her. And her woes even worsen if she's above 30. They rarely get white men. No they don't, because Nigerian women also fall short of the look And beauty standard

And if you're in dating app as an average black man (you're bleeped if you're ugly), you'll, 90% of the time be swept left over.

Hence, many Nigerian guys are frustrated and won't talk about it

Don't believe the stupid lies we peddle on here about white woman loving black for our dick game. It's a lie. If you ain't 100% attractive to her, your dick game doesn't matter. You need to be tall too, because their men are really tall. You can't be 5"9 and be expecting any reasonable result scoring a white chic, it ain't happening

It's nice how this doesn't apply to everyone or the majority. Thinking of how my family friend who was well above 30 and on the very big side got married in about a year after she got to the US.

She married a citizen, their son is about 3yrs old now and she's doing a nursing degree.

Or guys that I know that met fellow Nigerians or foreigners and got married. The truth is that these sensational write ups don't always tell the real truth. Things happen and people actually get what they aim at.

But somehow we always seem to capture the other side in these articles to kind of make sure people continue to stay in their little places or comfort zones, and not aspire to make it somewhere else.

Rechargeam247:
Scenario:

You have a good marriage, you pamper and take care of your wife, family and responsibilities.

On this particular day, your wife wanted to travel for an event, you asked her not to go for this particular event, kindly note, she is very social and travels a lot, you allow her, give her the freedom she needs.

Now, she ignored you and travelled, what can you do to express your displeasure, get her to apologise and avoid a repetition of such?

Creative solutions asides sex or money should be proferred

Married men and women only*

To the women, if you were the woman in this scenario, what can your husband do to get you to apologise and make you not repeat such?

Dialogue...talking about it is what you should be doing. All these suggestions of silent treatment, sending her to he father's house is just petty especially for a marriage that is probably almost 2 decades old.

Did you tell her the reason you didn't want her to travel or you just said she shouldn't go without a reason? Nevertheless, she should have shown some respect.

Your wife is not a kid. There has to be a way you both communicate and find a common ground for issues like this.

Kvngwitty:


Like its not compulsorily you start paying immediately, atleast when you get abroad you will find a job and then you can start paying thats more like a business too

lol

That is if the loan is from a family member or friend. A standard loan company or bank repayment usually starts from the next month or 2 months after. They are there for the business. They have to see your capacity to repay and they won't be waiting till you are comfortable enough to pay. You pay according to their schedule.

Kvngwitty:
Don’t sell your house oo probably you should look for where to get a loan and use the property as a collateral with a time frame you’ll be able to catch up with so you don’t lose your property

God will guide you

If she collects a loan, it does not stop there. She has to start repaying it back monthly. Can she afford that? It is better to take a loan to put into a business that brings in money so that repayment will not be a problem.

GboyegaD:


Don't let us stress this, she is your daughter and you know how best to raise her.

Exactly

GboyegaD:


I don't know how best to explain this however, there is more to it than schoolwork. Challenge the child in other aspects and let her have a balanced growth instead of rushing classes. 4 in Primary 2 doesn't just seem right.
An alternative will be home schooling and that way, she isn't pressured by the school system and you can also ensure a balance all round.

4 in primary 2. Term started in sept. She clocked 5 in Oct.

Challenge the child in other aspects like what? A child that is very interested in academics. Should you redirect such a child? And when later the child mellows down and loses that passion to learn because of our mindset and set ways, would that be better?

GboyegaD:


Don't you think maturity is very key? The challenge sometimes is that you meet the Nigerian kid who is termed smart however, is very shallow because the brain is not capable of having real discuss and has been forced to grow due to the pressure of the educational system that allows for imbalanced growth.

Yes. That should be put into consideration. I'm actually talking about a child that relates better with kids older than her, enjoys Mr Bean animated series and older kids cartoons rather than peppa pig or paw patrol, asks questions a whole lot and is very eager to learn new things, new words. Sometimes it is exhausting.

A child that will not rest till she does her homework. And after she is done, she disturbs you to give her extra homework and even tells her teacher to give her more homework.

What do you do with a child like that, one that has a great passion for learning ehn Mr Gboyega?

Focusmind:


Noted. But I will never agree to my 4 year old child being put in primary 2. In Canada, most 5 year Olds are just starting the elementary school. There is nothing like holding back. A star will always be a star when the times comes. I still stand on my initial position on this matter

That's why you and I are different. While I will explore the option of letting my child reach her maximum potential especially when she does it without being pushed, you might prefer to keep yours sheltered from that kind of growth. That's fine.

Canada is not Nigeria. Even in Canada, they have special schools for exceptional children.
A 4yr old child is reading like a 6yr old but I should keep her in primary 1 because someone thinks it is bad.

Some stars, when hidden are not given the allowance to shine. Many parents shield their children from shinning, and that is a bigger problem.

And who decides when the right time is? We the parents or the child's gift?
