I have no iota of sympathy for any successful man in Nigeria who sells everything and relocates his family abroad. This is 2023. If such a man cannot learn from the mistakes of others, then he is a lost cause and deserves his punishment. It ain't got nothing to do with love.

People chose not to be realistic. Even in Nigeria, if the Nigerian government can force a man out of his house and force him to pay the wife a guaranteed reasonable amount monthly for the upkeep of the family, how many women will still be married to their current husbands? There is every incentive for a Nigerian wife to behave badly abroad. There are no repercussions.

Women always support women until it happens to their brothers or sons.

Why is Peter inserting himself in an issue that's none of his business?

The PPRO should know that those things wearing black and black on Nigerian roads are not policemen in the real sense of it.

It may seem that there is a conspiracy to send white girls to retrieve a large chunk of money from successful black men (Tiger, Kanye, Israel,...)
At least she hasn't mentioned sexual assault.

Will they learn?

That's life for you.

Those with the resources or assistance do not want kids while the poor ones are breeding like rabbits.

Let's assume she didn't get pregnant...

How did he know that she would have said "Yes"?

Any guarantees?

Now what if she is only 1 month pregnant and turned around later to pin the pregnancy on him after the proposal? Then after many years of expenses comes to realize at the UK Embassy that the baby ain't his?

Someone should be thanking God instead of complaining.

I'm so sorry for him. Like Abroad, like 9ja. Infact people thinking coming home to 9ja babe is better......make una learn from this brother oooo. Our girls don go PLC now. Infact, you go need to shine your eyes better than when you are in Obodo Oyinbo.

Only a slowpoke will think that all these hookup babes that litter Nigeria will make better wives. Two months apart, she ain't your woman anymore. Reality vs fantasy. People that live in the same city are cheating even though the chance of getting caught is high na person wey dey thousands of miles apart go put faith on a lady like that.

South African President better be careful so that it doesn't turn to a case of Wike and Ikpeazu---ginger and dump.

See at this point I don't understand most Nigerians anymore. Every time I offer a helping hand to Nigerians they turn to your enemy. I don't understand the dynamics behind it. The whole interaction just gets very awkward after that . It's like they hate you for " humbling " them. It never fails.

But the ones who have a pure friendly relationship with you? Are the ones you haven't given anything yet. So in my everyday life person to person I try to do charity because charity covers a multitude of sins and givers never lack.

So this is a recent case study. This young guy , a security guard was sent by the company to guard the house I stay. I would say about 19 years old. One night I went grocery shopping and I was going through the gate he runs over from across the street and told me he was hungry. So I said what does he eat ? He said he likes indomie . So I went to my place and brought out like 5 indomie and 3 soft drinks and 2 sardines and gave it to him. He thanked me.

Every 2 days when I go out I would do small grocery shopping for him. Indomie and biscuits and soft drinks sardine or bread. A few times when I go out to get bottled palmwine for myself I would get him palmwine or orijin beer he likes. But I started noticing his entitlement behaviour like on the days when I don't buy him anything he would time when I Am coming home and sit beside my door when he sees me carrying my own groceries and he would be looking at me like he is depressed. And he would Always be watching me to see if I am going grocery shopping and he would hang around the car to see if I would come out with grocery.

Let's just say this guy got ridiculously stalkerish and so I called him up 4 days ago and asked him has his salary being paid yet? He said yes. Because am thinking all these things he is doing because he is new on the job and has no money and is hungry so I put up with it for like a month.

But once he told me yes that he had being paid, I in a roundabout way told him I don't tolerate the stalking. That he doesn't need to be following me or waiting on me. Anyway since that day this guy just turned into an enemy. Someone who I have been buying groceries for for almost a whole month just turned hostile like that. Now all that time I was buying him grocery he would do ass kissing stuff like when I drop my black trash bag outside my door he would take it to the bin outside for me but since that day the guy just bone my trash bags lol.

Anyway the point here is this ? You create an enemy unknowingly out of those you help - not family members- because I think it is humiliating for them and they despise you for it, so if you are going to offer charity don't offer it to people you have to see on a daily basis. Just find a beggar in the street that you would never see again. Nigerians are funny, they beg you for money but they hate you for giving them that money especially if it is not a life changing amount.

It's like a guy I gave 5000 naira one time and he thought it was an insult, just a regular guy who I don't even know like that, God is my witness, which 5000 is no money but it was just for him to buy beer for the weekend, you can get 15 beers with 5000 when I gave it to him.

So out here on these streets you have to be savage. No more mr nice guy ooo lol. basically if you are not offering guys over 100k just forget it cuz they would hate you. look for a real beggar who would appreciate 5000 or 1000.

It is the same reason they advise people against feeding stray cats. They will keep coming back.

Enjoy yourself.

But don't forget that the problem these days is staying married. Something always leads up to divorce or break in marriage. Be prayerful.

RealSolution001:
The girl I truly love and want, always form busy busy for me. Although she has a shop that keeps her on duty morning till night, but after closing from the shop, you would have to beg her to come out to see you for once in one or two months before it happens. Even Sundays are no exception.

Meanwhile, this other girl I don't even love was giving me all the vibe including mind-blowing sex but look at it now, she's taken in for me and I am not in support of abortion.

How do I sort this thing out because I still genuinely love the other girl and I want to marry her. She's a good wife material and ticks most of my boxes. I also dont intend to birth children from different women.

No insult please.

/
The only problem is that you factored in only your feelings. How do you know that the one that doesn't have your time loves you or will even agree to marry you?

It is up to the judges. Since he couldn't be represented in court by the governor, he fled Nigeria to avoid being served court documents. He wants to buy time and delay the court process till May 29th. It is up to the judges to order for substituted services so that the case can proceed. It will force him to return to Nigeria or have default judgments entered against him.

He is being smart by half. It is up to the opponents' lawyers and the judges to stick to the book and do the needful. A party in an ongoing litigation under hearing cannot up and flee.

If you want to live long and happily ever after, make money and move back to Nigeria.

Get a foreign passport so that you can fly out of Nigeria at will.

Put mechanism in place to earn future earnings in dollars/Euro/Pound Sterling.

Nigeria is bad is for poor people only.

When you hang around the right people in Nigeria, you will be wondering if they live in the same Nigeria that most of you come here to bitch and whine about everyday.

When I took over as a director in our company , I noticed that the company’s Secretary is a chronic liar

Most excuses she gives to avoid coming to work always seem like lies to me . But I couldn’t confront her since I don’t have proves .

Today her mum is very sick, tomorrow her dad is about dying .

I also noticed that she doesn’t do her jobs ( financial recordings ) . She is always sleeping at work and says she is sick when confronted .

We started looking for replacements , but I noticed also that she discourages everyone that wants to work .

On Thursday, she said her dad was dead and would be Buried on Saturday . I granted her a leave between Thursday and Saturday and I conclude that I must find her village and attend the burial without telling her .

On getting to her village , I discovered that there was no burial and the parents she constantly used as excuse died years ago

I sent her video I made in her village only for her to tell me that she won’t come to work again .

She handed nothing over to the company . She didn’t provide details of the transactions she did in the previous weeks .

I asked her details of the companies transactions during the Naira scarcity , she refused to come bring these things .

This resignation would take us one year backwards in other to sort her stuffs out. She handed over to no one

If I let her go free , other workers would emulate her .

How do I start nailing her please ??

You are a bad manager. Don't blame her.

That's all.

KillerBeauty:
The top ten unwritten rules

1. Don't call someone more than twice continuously. If they don't pick up your call that mean they have something more important to attend to.

2. When your fellow colleague/ classmate/ team-mate gets shouted at please don't stare at them. It makes the moment twice awkward.

3. When someone drops something on the floor by mistake or drops food from the plate or doesn't know how to use a knife/fork don't stare at them. The same goes to people sneezing, coughing or even an uncontrollable fart. It's an involuntary reaction.

4. Always skip using the restroom beside the occupied one. It makes it uneasy for the person in the occupied restroom as well as yourself if you occupy the one right next to theirs.

5. Return money that you have borrowed even before the other person remembers lending it to you. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens etc

6. Never order the expensive food or drink on the menu when someone is treating you for lunch/dinner. If possible ask them to order their choice of food for you.

7. Don't ask awkward questions like‘Why aren't you married?’ Or ‘Don't you have kids’ or ‘Why didn't you buy a car?’ For god's sake it isn't your problem.

8. When someone makes a wrong investment and loses their money, don't add fuel to the flames by saying‘I knew this would happen. You should have listened to me. Don't make failure seem worse for anyone.

9. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. Doesn't matter if it is a guy or a girl. You don't grow small by treating someone well in public.


10. Wear ear phones when traveling on a bus. Don't make others taste your choice of good/bad music.

The most important one! Don't swipe left or right when someone hands over their phone to you for viewing the picture. And also don't browse through their messages and call log list. Thanks

#7 about marriage is very necessary and important.

Otherwise some people will not understand that time is not on their side.

LordEclipse:
Imagine that container falling on it 🤣

Just seeing it on that road makes mockery of the vehicle. Trailers, Keke, okada, yellow buses, potholes--driving wahala in Nigeria too much. A flat bed tow truck would have been more appropriate.

Only in Nigeria will mutilated documents be presented as original and folks find it acceptable.

Legally, any altered document via cross out or whiteout is automatically declared null and void. In some cases when admissible, a signature must be appended next to the correction for authorization.

But you will see those who went to school but uneducated (yes, they are two different things) argue otherwise. Why do every noble cause die in the hands of Black people especially Nigerians?

Does it mean that a good picture of Timi doesn't exist? He always looks like an embalmed Ghanaian corpse dressed up for burial.

Being out of power humbles everyone.

Who could imagine Turai talking with this humble demeanor? She was very power hungry and even mustered the idea to continue where Yar'Adua stopped. That's how intoxicated she was with power--keeping a dead man in Aso Rock in order to rule by proxy.

Labragadaya:
I bought a 2002 Toyota Camry as my first car in October and for the first 2-3 months the car performed pretty well.

However lately, from January it has been one problem to the other.

From overheating to coil problem to spark plug problem and others.

The recent issue with the car is that the car doesn’t hold slow anymore.

That is the car goes off at slow speeds. I’ve changed coil, changed spark plug, ringed engine twice all to no avail.

This has caused a huge hole in my pocket as I’ve even had to borrow to pay for some of these repairs.

Just yesterday in a bid to resolve this issue, I took the car to another mechanic and he told me my engine block had washed and that even if he grinded the valve the holding slow issue won’t stop. I inquired about the cost of replacing the block and purchase alone was close to a 100 thousand. I’m just tired and frustrated, I need advise, do I sell the car or do I repair this?

Is this mechanic trying to extort me. Experience car users please advise

/
It is difficult to say. With Nigerian mechanics anything goes because there is no way to certify their expertise. It is always an expensive gamble.

I spent about N55k trying to fix poor acceleration problem to no avail. It took only N3k for one Calabar mechanic to fix it finally. Sometimes it is not just the cost. You may end up spending thousands buying parts while the solution to the problem could be just minor adjustment.

FBI and CIA love African leaders in the mold of Bola Tinubu. His files will be used to coerce him to do their biddings. It is all about American interests only. If you like elect a squirrel as a President, it doesn't affect them in any way. Only you can clean your house.

Unless sealed or redacted, he can approach the Superior Court in Chicago to get details of the case.

I am just wondering why they didn't tell him to return to Biafra.

As a programmer, you buy PC for your job.
A mechanic needs spanners for his job.
So this woman needs this child for her begging job and went ahead to do the needful. It is a tool necessary to draw empathy to make her profession lucrative. What's there not to understand?

Don't forget that some Motherless Babies homes do rent out the kids to beggars. It is just a tool for the trade

We warned them but they chose emotion over logic.

All the ex-Presidents came out as godfathers except Buhari because they had all the time to loot. The thought of it made Buhari cry because he was retired a poor man.

Trust Nigerians. Lacking in logic they bit the bait. The rest is history. Don't blame Buhari. Blame the impressionable basket of gullible who fall for anything.

That's where we are.

The Presidency is choosing the leader of the third leg whose job it is to checkmate it.

In a tweet on his official handle, the All Progressives Congress, APC chieftain further alleged that some legal practitioners have been flown to the country to do the job.

The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo has alleged plots by the opposition parties to legally stop the inauguration of the president-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu before May 29.

The Minister, however, ascribed the move and reactions it preceded as illiteracy, saying some unscrupulous characters are taking advantage of those he termed “nattering nitwits”.

He wrote,


The President Election Tribunal had fixed Monday for the commencement of the hearing of the petitions filed by the opposition parties seeking to truncate the victory of Tinubu.

Meanwhile, preparation for transition is in top gear as President Muhammadu Buhari is set to hand over power to Bola Tinubu on May 29.

Keyamo Tweets

This is one of those crying that he is being insulted online. Can you see how he started with an insult? Is he "Obidient" too since some of his ilks have managed to convince gullible Nigerians that every sign of poor parenthood is "Obidience"?

dominique:
But the boy was not kidnapped or coerced to donate his kidney, he offered to. He was the one willing to sell his kidney to highest bidder so why make him a victim? Ekweremadu is a corrupt politician that deserves to be flung in jail for stealing but that boy is no victim! He agreed to it, he's not underaged neither is he mentally unfit to decide on his own. I hope the UK authorities deports his snaky ass.

This is one of the reasons that it takes Nigerians a few years to adapt well when they migrate to developed nations. It takes a few years to reformat their brain and instal a real human brain program in them before total reorientation.

A judge read out how their system works and gave out legal interpretations to the case. But Nigerians in Nigeria like you are angry that he didn't interpret UK laws in a Nigerian way.

/

God1000:
Does he have such power? his powers are ceremonial, Only the prime minister is vested with legal powers.

I don't think king Charles will even get involved in such thing because of his image

/
Are you surprised?

People hide under professional ignorance to vomit thrash in Nigeria. He has no slightest idea how the Monarchy in England works.

/

Houseontherock1:
No one will say Ekweremadu didn't do wrong; but I'm still not convinced that "that guy" wasn't aware of the reason he was taken to UK. I believe he had it all planned out; he even knew to lie about his age to get police attention. He's a liar and a crook, not in any way better than the Ekweremadus!

/

Didn't you read the explanation?
A donor is at liberty to change his or her mind at any time. Do you know what's "informed consent"? You people cry about quackery in Nigeria and even when shown how things are done in a proper setting, you chose to complain out of your ass instead of educating yourself on the issue.

You can donate your own.

Apparently, Ekweremadu and Dr. Obeta wanted to pull typical campaign promises on David. The judge gave a sound judgment in simple English devoid of the nonsensical legal jargon and mumbo-jumbo their ignorant counterparts in Nigeria vomit.

It is funny indeed.

On a macro level, Datti felt robbed and is airing his grievances and some people are asking him to shut up. One day the same folks will be victims of the Nigerian state either through police brutality, extortion, kidnapping or what have you. We shall be alive to tell them to shut up.

There is a litany of folks who supported the Nigerian criminal enterprises because it favoured them only to turn around and be devoured by the same Nigerian state. Ask Ken Saro Wiwa and Abiola.
