Free internet that year. I can relate

Years not year. I wonder how they (MTN & co) find it difficult to stop the cheat codes consistently unlike today. No more codes!😂

But she is right. That is one thing I cannot do.

Ericmaestrooffi:
Call me childish or whatever but I don’t keep friends or contact with any of my ex regardless of how the relationship ended.
Immediately the relationship ends I block and delete everything that reminds me of them, contact , pictures e.t.c Currently I don’t have any of my exes contact on my phone, early this year I had to change my number so I cut ties totally with all of them.

I don’t see them as my enemies or anything of sort, as a matter of fact I wish them well but it’s from a distance, I can’t imagine being just friends with someone I once loved unless the feelings wasn’t genuine.
Most people I shared this view with says I’m childish and there’s nothing wrong with being friends with an ex but for me I think cutting you off is the surest way for me to move on.

What do you think?

Sorry, but you are probably childish. No need for long talk.

Softmirror:
Haba! Why you of all people dey talk like dis. You fall my hand o!

He is actually right. The CEO gets the stick whenever his company is not operating within the stipulated standards. Mark Zuckerberg for a case study on FB privacy concerns.

flexyrule:
We're talking about countries generally, not the capital or one single city.

Apart from constant power supply and security, Benin Republic is horse shit.

Whats the rate of kidnapping and overall security out there?

GeneralOuki:
Bangladesh. That country is s certified shít hole! As in .... It is so backward they might as well be living in 1700s. You need to see the way drivers behave in traffic, it is total hell! A literal bumper to bumper, in fact you can off your engine, put your gear on neutral and you will still get to where you're going because other cars behind and beside you will push your car forward. There is no public bus in this country that is as wrecked as the buses in Bangladesh, NONE.
IT is a Muslim country, and I happened to be there during their Salah and Jizọs!! They were slaughtering the animals on the streets which were flooded because it rained the previous night, and the whole place was filled with blood stained flood water! As in you look out from the window onto the street and all you will see is river of blood everywhere!! Me I didn't go out oo! I no wan collect disease wey I no know.

India, Bangladesh, Paskistan= world dirties competitors

Hamachi:
Oga you lie THE UNDERRATED COTONOU

Since I was born till date, we Nigerians have always looked down on a lot of neighboring countries like Cameroon, Togo, Benin Republic etc.
Well, you are not to be blamed if you are among those who look down on some of these countries, even when we have not had an opportunity to cross border.
Bro I schooled in Benin, that place is a complete mess nothing is cheap there, have you looked at the exchange rate lately Even if you buy a bag of rice for 20k cfa and you convert that money to Naira it’s about 40k Naira, please if you don’t have money don’t near that place please, Benin is a nice place if you’ve made money and your going there to spend it, girls there do hookup and the guys do yahoo, in terms of electricity the have 247 light and water but then, it’s not just worth it plus the scorching sun there Omoh

Well I was one of those people who actually looked down on most of these countries until I had an opportunity to sail round west Africa and the narratives changed.

Meanwhile I was completely marvelled the first time I visited Cotonou, the business hub of Benin Republic about 4 years ago when Patrice Talon newly took office
Two years after I re-visited, after touring round other west African countries. I spent 3 days here and without a waste of time, I concluded to relocate down to this place based on the level of development I saw, the security, serenity etc.

Finally I am now living here and I have no regret so far.

I will say this country is blessed with the best president who is working tirelessly to improve the living conditions of his beloved citizens and I am glad hearing citizens saying positive things about the president.

Business Opportunities
From My Findings So Far...

*Tailoring is a place to explore especially when you sew English wears and Nigerian attires
* Sales of any kind of electronics which you can bring from Nigeria and Togo cos they are cheaper over there and expensive here.
* Sales of second hand phones and laptops, not forgetting their accessories too. Very lucrative
* Nigerian foods are in high demand especially areas where Nigerians live more. U go sell tire
* Sales of sewing machines(more of manual)and it's accessories are in high demand cos this is their major skill work with hairdressing.
* Phone and laptop repairs needs serious attention here cos most of the engineers are not competent enough
* Sales of motor parts/bike parts. Both are very good biz here too.
* Bilingual schools are still in high demand in some places including teachers.
* Transportation biz- As a naija man, u will do better plying from border to town, if you are a smart. As an okada rider, concentrate around Tokpa, Misebo and Beach, you will be fine too.
Those who are into okirika(2nd clothes, shoes & bags), it's still very profitable till date but you must have a good contact for you not to be cheated.
Etc


Let me drop my pen here for now. I will be sharing some photos of the places I have been to like the beaches etc . So stay tuned as we will be dropping more information to give you a comprehensive info about the country generally.

very detailed delivery. Being considering moving out of this shithole and Rwanda has been on my shortlist but I'm not sure of the country's business safety. It's not a business hub compared to Benin. I will like to inquire about the overall security and kidnapping in Benin. It would be handful. Thanks.

henrybomb:
He is not and that is his second dog too
The dog was loosing memory already

I disagree. You don't go near a feeding adult dog, especially males unless you have 100% total control (still risky).

henrybomb:
A friend of mine sold his Rott for this same reason
One day he was feeding the dog suddenly the dog grabbed his arm with its teeth…he had to shout, kick and scream the dog’s name before it became gentle and sober.

That friend of yours is an amateur dog owner. Dog go near a feeding dog, if you must, make sure you got everything 100% in control.

Gandollar:
Seriously?

So we should all go old school to avoid car theft?

Is this where we are now as a country?

Is Mercedes old school? Mind you they steal pencil llight everywhere. I don't get your logic.

Flier:
May God help you,lost my car in year 2011,it’s nowhere to be found till now
Now I don’t use tracker because it’s useless,I engrave the car because some of this thieves sell the car in pieces.
Once they noticed you have engraved the car,they won’t steal it.
As for tracker,the best way to use it is to hide it somewhere inside the car,don’t connect it to the car

Sorry for your loss. How do you mean don't connect it to the car, I mean the tracker and it seems mine is connected to the car. By the way, I think the best way to avoid this car thief experts is to avoid popular brands like Toyota, Honda, Lexus etc. No one steals a mercedes here, especially those ones you can barely seen around like sclass models, etc

BlackPantherxXx:


No wonder Nigeria refused to grant them independence

90% of adult males would have been imprisoned and the women in pleasure houses

The Yoruba tribe reeks of tribalism to the core. Wetin dem do una, almost all of you. Tufiakwa.

OlofofoCorner:
So na must for billionaires to have a bulletproof cars abi?

Yes, a must in Nigeria.

KenghisKhan:
Whatever it takes for peace to reing is welcome. The war has lost its steam, unnecessary bloodshed and waste of money.

Don't mind those blood-hungry edots. Trump is doing the right thing: saving lives.

femi4:
Microsoft lacks innovation, they should stay away from tiktok

They moved from ie to edge..no difference

Lol, difference dey sha. But that Internet Explorer lasted for about 30 years, no changes

toboizilla:
That's like falling back to darkness, my friend who was in darkness and didn't believe in God, I have given him enough evidence and he has reconsidered his initial disbelieve. It was easy because he believed in science. You can google the UFOs, watch some youtube video and email me so your eyes go clear.

We in the light rejoice for her decision.

Even if God comes down from heaven and tells me he is God with signs, I still wouldn't believe. I still have 1000 questions I would ask him which would go unanswered. That's how deep mine is. So don't waste your time.

And finds out later that God does not exist

slaawomirr:
Damnnn niggar

SalamRushdie:
For context if we start paying you $500k a day today it would take you 3000 years to catch up with Elon's wealth...

compound interest with the 500k will beat that in 10 years.

How would you not believe in GRACE, after watching Nicholas Jackson play professional football?

Dude is nothing close to being a footballer.

I dey tell you. Grace dey oo.

Had the experience before. Was scared shitless I had to run away from her. So many 'what ifs' kept ringing in my head.

ShogunNoName:
Ozuor. You guys are the most toxic tribalistic negative tribe in Nigeria.

No ever quote me again

No be lie, bro. Too tribalistic.

nathdim:
do you have used for sale

before but changed my mind because of the dollar hike.

True talk. Like some special type of stupidity.

Segzy19:
To those of you from a particular tribe calling for coup because your candidate lost election, I'm sure you know that even if the military takes over in Nigeria, you tribe will still be sidelined, worse off for it and be at the receiving end. Whichever way, democracy or military you guys will never lead this country if you continue in this your ways of madness

Just have that at the back of your minds.

I have not mentioned any name or tribe but you know yourselves. We also know you!
