Health / Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by InformedLola(f): 6:07am On Aug 09, 2017
Taiwoaremu:
After marriage last year, our hope is for the babies to begin to come but it wasn't so. After three months, I knew their was problem. We don't know what to do. wife cried when ever af rears her ugly head. I try to make my wife happy all time for her to take ttc things off her mind. I observe wife is suffering from semen leakage after bd (yoruba call it eda) and from my personal research it could be due to watery semen or infection in woman. We start to think of running tests. To let wifey know that we are both involved in this ttc journey I went for semen analysis and the result came out excellent. As a Yoruba man i went traditional. My wife was given soap to wash her vj morning and night, herbs to be drank every other day. and other substance she use with pap for 3 days. I believe the herbs cleanse her system because there was a lot of discharge which stopped after a week. I was also given a substance I mixed with pure honey which I used every other day. Total cost for the trado treatment was 7500 naira only. Less than two months the Lord did it for us. I pray that the Almighty God that did ours will surprise all the fruitful mamas and papas on this forum.

Please help with the location or phone number of the alagbo woman. Thank you.

It's easier to find a job out there than on Nairaland. From what you have written, what you need is something that can help you get a little income and reduce the burden on your sister. It shouldn't be hard to get a menial job to provide that.

Look in the following places: pure water factory, filling station, car wash, eatery, building site etc.

Don't quit school, work and school together.

Family / Scared Of Ladies That Earn More? by InformedLola(f): 4:41pm On Apr 23, 2017
A lady asked this question on Sprocial, guys is this true?...


Guys, are you scared of ladies that earn more?

This is a question that has been eating into my thoughts for some weeks now.

Met someone here and we got along pretty nicely and got quite close. So we decided to meet physically.

Got a shocker when after our date he told me we can't be more than friends. That from my lifestyle he can see I earn quite a good deal, far more than him and he can't date a woman who earns more than he does.

What In this century? What a shocking mindset!

It got me thinking and wondering if this a general thought with guys, hence my asking here.

Look forward to your answers, fellows.

yorex2011:
This question shouldn't really be a difficult one.
Just think of the way Messi will answer to a football club on why they should sign him cheesy

Club Manager: Dee Messi, Why should we sign you?
Messi: I have excellent dribbling skills evident in some of the memorable solo goals I have scored in the past, I can create opportunities for your team as I possess a clear vision to pull out final passes, I had over 100 assists at my time in my former club. I also have great leadership skills, pride myself in being able to motivate my players both on and off the pitch. I believe with the skills I have consolidated by my years of experience, I can help bring your team from the 3rd division to become champions league contenders grin grin

Just mention your strong points and how it will directly affect the company and you should be fine.. you cant go to a bank and say the reason they should hire you is that you can cook ofada rice...Your reasons has to affect them directly..else you are in the wrong interview.
If you can, mention times when you had to rely on these skills and how they brought results. It doesnt have to be professional or official.

And you think they haven't heard your rehearsed and choreographed response a million times...Immediately you start, they roll their eyes and think.."Here we go again..."

Think outside the box, give an answer unique to you...be honest

And the below is your best out-of-the-box response?

Or you can just go with one of my favourites..."You need staff, I need a job....looks like a win-win"...with a cheeky smile

Very funny.

Also, you need to up your comprehension game. The article clearly stated that think of YOUR skills and past achievements to mould your response on what you can do for the company.

It did not say repeat the example verbatim or structure it exactly as the example.

Continue cramming interview responses until you bite tongue...

Such a simplistic response would not get you the job. No one wants to employ someone who's too lazy to think.

Jobs/Vacancies / Best Answer To The Interview Question - Why Hire You? by InformedLola(f): 4:33pm On Apr 16, 2017
You finally got an interview invite to that dream job. After sending a carefully prepared Curriculum Vitae and brilliantly scaling through difficult assessment tests, you are at the final hurdle. You are now seated before a panel of smiling yet intimidating-looking interviewers after days of preparation, but the simple question ‘Why Should We Hire You?” stops you in your tracks, and you try to stammer out a response, not sure of the best answer to give.

Your confusion is not strange. Statistics show that the ‘Why Should We Hire You’ question is one of the most difficult interview questions of the 21st Century and the one job seekers fail at the most.

The Best Answer to The Question:
There is no best answer to the ‘Why Hire You’ question, but there is a guideline you must follow to craft a brief yet impactful response that will effectively convince your interviewer(s) that you are the best man or woman for the job.
The guideline is simply:
1. What are your top 3 soft skills: e.g problem solving, analytics, collaboration?
2. What is an example of a situation in which you used these skills?
3. What is your top achievement?
4. How can you bring these skills and the experience gained when you accomplished (2) to play in the role you are interviewing for?

Going by this guideline, what will your response to the question be? Try it and see.

Also see a sample response at the Source page.

I would expect to see a PAST date in Otobo BBM Chat for something that happened in the Past or is she telling us that Apostle suleiman is still chatting with her?

Look at the date of her own chat and ask yourself why is it having recent timing and dates?

Have you thought of the fact that she could have taken those screen shots back then and not now?

The fact that the man's dp and status message kept changing shows she took those screenshots over time and not now.

I am sorry to post such here but honestly I don't know where to go for assistance presently. I can't even think straight right now. I am a student of Ogun State School of Health Technology, Ilese, Ogun state. I am going through a difficult moment right now. My dad was given a compulsory retirement few days ago because of his health and that's where my hope lies. I haven't completed my school fees and the session is almost winding off now. I can't presently ask for anything at home now because of what we are going through right now and I have to be reasonable. I still have to buy some hand outs but I still can manage with my colleagues but I need help as regarding my fees. Please kindly assist me. I have paid part of the fees but need to balance so that I can at least concentrate. Please help me




Still ask your Dad for the money. When people get retired, they get benefits. Don't make assumptions for him that he has no money to pay your fees at the moment.

Madam, are you guys legally married? If you are, then sit that man's aas down and let him know his threat does not hold water.

Also speed up your search for a nanny and get a job ASAP. In fact don't wait to get a job, look for a business to do that can put some money, no matter how small, into your pocket, so you don't keep relying on him for some little personal needs.

Romance / How To Meet The Right Man Online by InformedLola(f): 4:05pm On Feb 12, 2017
It is highly recommended that a woman who is actively seeking a partner do so on the internet as there are better chances of meeting a variety of people than you will during your day to day activities offline. However, online dating has to be conducted with caution and wisdom, since despite having lots of advantages, it also has its disadvantages.

To arm yourself for a successful and fruitful online dating sojourn, here are some top notch tips to help you navigate for success and meet Mr. Right:

Look in the Right Places: Pick The Right Dating Site
After identifying the kind of man you want to meet online, the next step is to identify the sort of dating site he will most likely be found at. You can't expect to find a serious-minded person at a site that is notorious for picking up one-night stands. Sprocial https://www.sprocial.com for instance is a site that gives working-class men and ladies a platform to mingle, and would be an ideal place to meet a career-minded man.

Be Mrs. Right
You want to find and hook Mr. Right, then you have be Mrs. Right yourself. Once you have a clear picture of the type of man you want to be with, ask yourself one question: ‘Are you the kind of woman he is searching for?’ For example, you will stand little chance of getting a good man to be serious about you if you present yourself as a plaything.

Don’t Be Afraid To Approach Him First
Making the first move shows a man that you are a confident, mature woman and not a little girl who is afraid to go after what she wants. You can initiate the conversation and put on the green light to let him know you are interested in him, but you also have to be subtle about it so you do not come off as desperate.

Never Ask for Gifts, Recharge Cards or Financial Favours
Lots of Nigerian dating sites are filled with women who take advantage of the interest men have in them to ask for gifts and financial favour. Never request such from any man online, no matter how long you have been connected. It immediately paints you as a ‘runs girl’ and would kill the genuine interest any good man has in you.

I will be brief to avoid boring you with stories.
I am an introvert thus it's been a very difficult endeavor for me to walk up to a lady and express my intention.
I am already getting to an age where I think I need to have a partner to start planning my life and future.
Thus if any young lady is out there below 26 . with an open heart, let's give this a trial.

The Major qualities I need is that you be of the blood group AA and be a God fearing person. I really do not care about looks but you have to be presentable.
And of course, be a Christian.
Send me a PM or message via 08110855482.
Let's get to know each other and see if we complement.

I really do look forward to meet you.

Romance / Top 8 Online Dating Tips For Men: Secrets Of Online Dating Success by InformedLola(f): 4:45pm On Jan 29, 2017
As a man who is actively searching for a relationship, you would be looking at making use of online dating to meet the right people. In order to reap the many benefits without falling into its pitfalls, here are some tips to help you navigate for success:

1. Know Exactly What You Are Looking For
Imagine a pilot getting on a plane and flying it without knowing where he is headed or what the reason for going there is. Jumping into the world of online dating without starting with the clear picture of the sort of woman you want to relate with and what you want out of that relationship is similar to this. You will simply waste your time and end up getting nowhere.

2. Pick The Right Dating Site
After identifying the kind of woman you want to meet online, the next step is to identify the sort of dating site she will most likely be found at as highlighted above. There are a multitude of dating sites out there, with some playing in niches. You can scan through various sites to find the one at which you are most likely to find the sort of person you want to meet. Sprocial https://www.sprocial.com for instance is a site that gives working-class men and ladies a platform to mingle.

3. Be What Your Kind of Woman is Searching For
So, you have a clear picture of the type of woman you want to hook up with. But before you jump right into connecting with her, ask yourself one question: ‘Are you the kind of man she is searching for?’ Most women want a good-looking, responsible man who has a good source of income, is fun to be with and behaves like a gentle man. But with different classes of women comes a few more specifics. A single mom or woman looking out for a relation that is headed for marriage, would want a man that loves kids; a young career woman would want an upwardly mobile, ambitious partner. Once you have identified the kind of woman you want to connect with, you also need to know what she wants in a man and be ‘that thing’.

4. Your Profile Picture is Your First Selling Point
Your profile picture is your first selling point, make it count. Put up a picture that puts you in good light but is still very close to what you really look like. It is always a huge turn-off when someone turns out to be nowhere close to what they look like in their profile picture. It also seems very deceitful.

5. Make Your First Message Count
Seen a lady you like and it is now time to get her attention with a message? Do not waste it on a generic ‘hi’ or ‘how are you doing?’ Make a good impression with a message that will make her to want to know more about you; a message that will stand out from the sea of messages that throng her inbox daily.

Lailai, it can never be OUR money when the other party is contributing nothing to it. That's the fact. It's his money and he has every right to be worried about how it's being spent. Haba, put yourself in his shoes now, economy is not smiling. Get back to your grind and contribute, even if it's a little, then it gets back to being OUR money.

Jobs/Vacancies / How To Network And Make Good Connections In Nigeria by InformedLola(f): 6:07pm On Jan 21, 2017
If you are one of those people who have resolved to step up their networking skills in 2017 and forge meaningful relationships within and outside their organizations for the betterment of their careers, this article is for you.

And if you have not made that resolution, the question is what are you waiting for? As long as you are a career-minded or business-minded person, or even a job-seeker, you need to know how to seek the right connections and keep them alive through continuous networking.

So how do you network effectively and forge quality connections, especially in a country like Nigeria, and enjoy every minute of it? Here are some tips:

1. Know and Identify: This can be simply expanded to know your career/business objectives and identify those that can help you achieve them.

2. Meet and Mingle: One of the ways of meeting the right people to network with is simply by mingling a lot. Get yourself out there.

3. Social Networking Does Magic: While it can be a monster that consumes all your time and leaves you with low productivity if badly or over used, social media is a gem for meeting new people.

4. Birds of the Same Feather…: Like the saying goes, people with similar attributes get along easily. In order to break down the defenses of those you are interested in connecting with, you need to identify common grounds.

5. Be Honest and Trustworthy: This can never be over-emphasized. No matter how intriguing and interesting you are and how easily you are able to make connections with people, you immediately lose them once they find out you are dishonest or someone they cannot trust.

Bullshiiit story. Nobody is that silly especially when he earns an income. And no, i don't believe in jazz. Therefore the story was made up just to draw attention to men abuse.
Yes, some men are being abused but not to this extent. It's toyboys and gold digging men that mainly receive abuses. Any man who doesn't fall into this group and allows himself become a lackey should be castrated and banished from civilization.

Exactly my point. Just an attention-grabbing story, too extreme to be true.

Family / Re: What Is The Best Way To Handle A Child That Steals? by InformedLola(f): 7:57pm On Jan 01, 2017
Op,

1st: having a young child as a help is against the laws of Nigeria (not being judgmental, but it's child labour). If anything should happen to her (when your friend beats her mercilessly after she steals like someone advised), your friend will be in a lot of trouble with the law.

So this is a lose-lose situation he is in.

That is why having under-aged house-helps is not advisable, not only is there the tendency of you infringing on their fundamental human rights 'cause it's hard for you to treat them as well as you will your own kids, there is also the great tendency of them bringing whatever vices they have picked up from years of living in different households and conditions into your house.

It's best he returns her to her parents. If he really wants to help her, he can enroll her in a school in the village and pay her fees directly. He can also send some upkeep money to her parents regularly if he has the means.
