Women are just weird. I still wonder why God created them out of our ribs instead of brain.

Count your ribs and see if any is missing.

Hi every one, l have been a nairalander for over 10 years and have seen people get advised here, thats why l am putting this up with my account.
I am not blaming anybody for my predicament, neither do l blame the loan app company for their shark like business sytle, l take responsibility for my actions. I am one of those people who criticized people for Falling into the trap of online loan company. It's basically a rat race syndrome and tends to take you deeper and deeper from the seemingly innocuous first attempt.

It all started when my side hussle of buying and selling food stuff suffered a decreased in cost of replacement due to inflation and my sales boy stealing my money. I took my first loan to boost my business and realized that the cost of the loan is high. Since then, it's been a malicious cycle of robbing Peter to pay Paul. I realized that l was lossing money in each transcation and in order to meet up with my payment to avoid defaulting, l resorted to other loan company. Now, l don't even no what to do, all cash injection coming to me is spent on servicing the loan. I can't even feed my family and pay my children school fees. I am tire of this scenario and want to break free. It has taken a toil on me physically, mentally and spiritually.

I seek advice from people who have gone thru this ugly experience on how to break free before it is too late. Below is the list of my indebtness:

Ucredit #22,976. 15.03.22(due date)
Oxloan #26,250. 17.03.22
Lcredit #60,000. 17.03.22
Eazycredit #58,904. 21.03.22
imoney. #20,242 24.3.22
Okash #42,416. 31.3.22

I welcome any useful suggestion on how to break free. Thanks

There is nothing wrong in the Loan apps' business model. Na you carry yourself go borrow. Dem no force you. It is an eye-opener for all. If una stop dey borrow, they will die a natural death.

Now imagine if it were your friends that lend you the money? You fit the profile of who would never pay back loans-- e go be one long story after another. God has used these online loan shacks to free innocent friends that would have been victims of "borrow and no pay"

A kingdom could do justice to ensure sanity.

Jesus will do justice to the world by judging in righteousness.

He said...." Anyone who doesn't believe in me is condemned already"

...and as for the true children of God,

Jesus is our advocate.

Imagine the judge being your lawyer as well?

We are covered by his blood.

Lastly,

For those who refused to believe in his sacrifice,

Jesus is both the judge and a witness to your crime.

Imagine the judge being a witness to an accused person's crime?

Your crimes are theft, idolatry, witchcraft, sexual perversion, pride, fornication, adultery, etc...

He sees them all.

Run for your life....

Accept him.

He said that he is ready to accept you regardless of what you have done in the past...

Jesus loves you.

If only some of you knuckleheads will leave Jesus and Mohammed alone and use your God-given brains for once.

Saudi (Muslims) and Israel(foundation of Christianity) do not cry as much as you folks do without doing anything. Saudi Arabia just executed terrorists while you pamper them through acts of forgiveness and reintegration. Why keep deceiving yourselves?

Putin would sooner or later run out of resources and after these madness he would never step a foot outside Russia, because he has committed crime against humanity

/
US and allies are prosecuting the war by proxy. The problem with Nairaland analysts is that they are more emotional than logical---typical Nigerian I may add. War is not always by guns, bullets, jets and tanks. They choked Russia financially thus limiting the needed resources to prosecute the war. Money is essential to successful prosecution of war. Putin and his cronies (aka oligarchs) have been put on the defensive financially all over the world. He never expected such stealth response.

Putin is that bully that everyone has been watching as he baths in delusion of grandeur. And when push comes to shove, the class got together and beat him with everything including kitchen sinks.

It is not just about Putin. They are using the Russian oligarchs as an example of what could go wrong and most importantly, as a deterrent to other hard nuts who may want to pop off in future. Imagine for someone like Buhari, all they need is to place a health travel ban on him and the party will be over.

It beats me how someone will work very hard, suffer, make money and then use it to buy a Range Rover. Now talk about self hatred.

In recent times I couldn't help but think about how the artisan and Craftsmanship industry of Nigeria will be 10 years from now.

I remember back in the 80s and 90s, it is common and even a thing of pride whereby people sign up for apprenticeship for a couple of years to get the required skill in their field of interest.

Some Parents like my father even insisted on adding artisanry to formal education as plan B. So all each children had to learn a skill while waiting for admission or during the one year industrial training period in higher institutions ( A legacy I will earnestly follow with my lineage).

Aside the fact that it is a huge boost to ones C.V., you will never beg for food unless you weren't serious with your training.

But today you hardly see youngsters, learning Craftsmanship or artisanry. Every body wants to be a content creator, a programmer, content writer, Yahoo yahoo and the likes.

Nobody wants to be a plumber, an electrician, a technician, a mechanic, a bricklayer or tiler, welder, iron bender and the likes.

Have you noticed how difficult it is to get an experienced and skilled artisan these days. Sometimes you have to wait for days for them to come and do jobs for you in your house.

The crux of the matter is the crop of experienced and skilled artisans and Craftsmen and women presently available are those from the 80s and 90s. Most of their apprentices are actually with them just to make ends meet thereby prioritizing the need to make money above that of properly learning the skill from their master.

Personally I think it's just a matter of a couple of years before we realize the dire situation of artisanry and Craftsmanship in this country. Maybe by then we will start looking for foreigners to fill in the gaps.

What do you guys think?

/
That's life.

Nigerian immigrants in Libya are the main artisans because the citizens there refuse to do such manual labour.

Ghanaian and Togolese immigrants in Nigeria are becoming the main artisans in Nigeria because Nigerian citizens refuse to do such work.

Online begging has replaced artisanship as a thriving profession in Nigeria.

Church is a building or organization made up of people who buy fuel at N300/litre, feed their families, pay school fees, whose children are on strike, etc.

The only nation on earth with the principle of separation of church and state is US. What is Kperogi yapping about? You cannot live in a society and keep quiet politically because you belong to a religious organization. Bad policies affect one and all.

When was the last time you bought anything that said "Made in Russia"? Russian funds and assets are frozen in foreign countries. Her currency has been decimated. How much purchasing power will the citizens have when inflation is out of chart? The world is one big global village. Can Russia survive it? Yes! But their lives will never be the same again for a long time courtesy of one man.

Too many things went wrong:

1. Leaving immediate family in Nigeria and failing to renew rent. Na all these I want travel without good foundation and backup plan.

2). Moving in with a man who is not a relation and expect a free ride is a fairy tale. She willingly and/or desperately enjoyed the ride.

3). The blackmailer knows what he is doing. This kind of relationship rarely ever ends well.

Most of these could have been avoided if and only if the man renewed the rent. He who fails to plan, plans to fail.

Bombing the children's hospital (whether real or propaganda) has pissed many people off. You will notice steady flow of stealth weapons into Ukraine. Putin is fighting a lost war. If he dares release one nuclear war head, Russia will be reduced to rubbles in a matter of days. They have tolerated his nonsense for too long. Every nation is powering up. Isreal is loaded and ready to annihilate in a matter of hours.
Everyone is at alert. Putin has been unmasked. A lawmaker in US propositioned that they tease Putin to see how crazy he can get. This is getting interesting. Power is not always might.

Those nuclear stations can be bombed there in Russian and will be catastrophic for Russian and Russians.

MadamVanessa:



Gender equality can never be achievable, we can only imagine it in our heart, because our women are too lazy to think and work as women. 90% of women solely depend on men.


We need more independent women before we can talk of gender equality.

My fellow women let's work as never before.

/
Gender equality is achievable in Nigeria. But it must be championed by women who are intelligent and ugly. A beautiful woman leading the struggle will be talking and men will be busy using their imaginations instead of listening.

The soldiers and policemen were armed with AK-47s.
The bandits were armed with AK-47s.

Sadly the bandits do not fear/respect uniforms like the regular civilian population.

Common denominator: They are all humans and humans die.

So who aimed right and first pulled the trigger won.

The result is out.

British government is setting the tone for recklessness! Government cannot seize assets belonging to an individual because he had relationship with someone else.

Unless the British government can prove Putin directly provided the funds for the purchase of Chelsea.

/
How?

Read up on PEP (Politically Exposed Persons). They are using the laws in existence at the most appropriate time. Your opinion is not relevant here because they know themselves and how they move.

Instagram Twerker Korra obidi's husband announced that he is divorcing her a week after the birth of their second daughter.

If it is true, too late for him. Child support in California for two kids will be enough to support her lifestyle for the next 18 years.

/

/
Was he not the one that investigated and cleared Abba Kyari in the Hushpuppi saga? He sold himself out cheaply and they took him out.

How can one feel sorry for him?

Truvelisback:
The U.S and NATO are indirectly fighting the Russians using Ukraine.

/
How did you think they dissolved USSR.
They armed those little breakaway units and choked USSR financially. The same playbook is at work. They may bankrupt Russia again and China will be happy to share superpower status with only US. Russia has a huge landmass that China would love to take as well. It is all about interests.
/

/
I blame Cameroun and Niger.

If I were the President of any of these two countries, I would invade Nigeria. Who can resist them?

/

/
Buy the rumours, Sell the news.

In just one day after US banned oil import from Russia, oil fell from $130 to $112 per barrel contrary to speculations by armchair analysts online.

So who won? Oil future contract traders only. Front month(April) futures contract will expire next week.

They were probably driving recklessly to avoid being ambushed by Unknown Gunmen. Men in uniform are endangered species in that zone.

People spend millions on cars.
People spend thousands on electronics and drinks.

Just to do a monthly health checkup (Blood pressure/Blood works) is a big challenge.

Deaths like this will continue to happen. I only feel sorry for the innocent village people that will continue to be blamed.

All thanks to our amiable ex president Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Johnathan who started this great work and all the glory was stolen by clueless idiotic dullard that knows nothing.

Nice jokes!

Because I don't think you are silly enough to believe what you wrote.

It boils down to what the people after him want. His case will be used as legal precedence and reference in future. What law in the Constitution was used to impose Uzodinma on Imo people? People can only make educated guesses but the shot-callers will always have their way.

rightdata:
I strongly believe that the judgement sacking Dave Umahi is just to stop his presidential ambition. What do you think. Comment below.

/
Umahi's presidential ambition is a joke. He has no political base even in his state. They are merely tolerating him because he is still the governor and holds the aces. He has no political influence beyond Ebonyi State.
/

/

The judge that handled the case is a real gangster

Just know that as long as Nigeria is not refining the oil in her backyard, low or high crude oil price is bad news.

8 years of Buhari. Yet no single fully functional refinery contrary to his promises.

Armaggedon:
US is running out of options. In the present case, they now sanction one country by replacing them with another country in their sanctions list. Imagine running to Venezuela or Iran for oil supply.

Moreover, this rash of sanctions helps no one. It will easily lead to global economic recession and also bring the 'BRICS' together, creating a separate and viable economic sphere of influence for the Chinese. This will hurt the west in the long run.

/

You are funny!

You forgot the most important attribute of US--they are bullies. They can arm-twist at least 90% of the countries in the world.

What is playing out is one bully telling another bully to leave the little guy alone.

You probably don't know that US has a huge oil reserve that's not being drilled because of political consideration.

In the oil market, what do you think WTI stand for? Ever heard of Baker Hughes oil rig count report?

baralatie:
What is the effect of a sharp deviating increase in price of fuel products on the American economy!
That is my question?

/
High inflation. Then the Fed will be forced to raise interest rate. Like I stated, US has many weapons in her arsenal to formulate policies to cushion adverse effects in her economy.

/

baralatie:
Is the US economy not been indirectly dragged alongside Russia like this so

/
US writes the economic policies that move the world. When she coughs, others catch cold. They have many financial gimmicks in their arsenal to cushion any adverse effects including sending money to their citizens, quantitative easing, etc.

You should be more worried about how it will affect Nigerians. With crude oil at $130/barrel, expect scarcity in Nigeria soon since your government has failed to implement local refining of crude oil.

/

/

/
USA is taking cautionary steps in this Russia-Ukraine war.

Don't test the resolve of US if and when they decide that they have had enough of Putin's bullshit. Right now they are busy choking financial life out of Putin and his minions. Pres. Biden just banned oil import from Russia.

The Chinese are very unreliable and crafty. They are not emotional babies like Nigerians whose reactions on issues are always very predictable. I feel sorry for Putin if he has any hope on China for assistance.
