/ The good thing about the Bible is that any schmuck can read it and make his own interpretations. He can even add his own theories with no biblical foundation. All interpretations are fair in christianity or so it seems.
I am dismayed at the level of love they show to GEJ who never helped them.One would think GEJ turned the SE to El Dorado. How people get easily stupefied in Nigeria is baffling. SMH.
/ Contrary to popular opinion, newer is not always better. It is better to buy used and trusted gadgets. Boeing and the masses found that out too late in Air Max 737. Each brand of car usually has a particular model and year that is of poor build.
Do you see the guys buying the latest Range Rovers? Only Jesus can console them. /
OritaIbadan: I employed this 21years old lady last year as a sales rep. At resumption to work she appeard so decent and godly always With her Bible and Sunday school manual. I was really impressed by her spiritual and respectful nature. This made me treat her different from others. I buy her things and sometimes gives her money and always discuss her good life style with my wife. But what amazed me was that my wife was so indifferent about her each time I discuss her my wife will quickly change the topic. I thought, well woman with their naughty behavior towards other women.
Fast forward to June first this year her phone was stolen and I have a phone in office that I allow them access to incase their phone is off I can easily reach them through it. This faithful day, I tried to access my Facebook account using the office phone and found out that this same lady had used it but forget to logout. Well, I knew it was wrong to check her inbox but all the same I did.
After checking her inbox I couldn't sleep all night. I found out that she is having unprotected sex with 5 guys each guy per Sunday and she just did an abortion March this year the very day she told me that she was sick and can't make it to work and she wasn't sure who among the guys that impregnated her. I also found out that she had missed her period again and trying to hang it on one of the boys. The amazing thing is that non of these guys suspects her, they all believe she is a faithful girl friend.
I have thought of relieving her of her job, but my wife is asking me what should I give as reasons. But the truth is that I had never winessed such a wayward life before. If I pretend as though I know nothing she will eventually commit another abortion and continue with such life which is very dangerous at her age. What if she is my own daughter?
Please I want the mode to push this to the front page. I want to seek others opnion about it
/ You should find a way to let her go. Why? Just for your sanity. It is easy to say "pretend you never saw anything". But you are human and not a machine. Her presence will continue to be a psychological trauma to you. Heck! Give her money to start something for herself just to keep her away from you if you care. One way or the other her promiscuity will eventually affect your business. It could be sick days or one of the guys may put financial pressure on her. Someone that pretentious could be dangerous in other ways you are yet to find out. Prevention is better than cure. Sometimes, you should learn how to be selfish.
By the way, that she failed to logout is her problem not yours. Most people would do what you did. Right or wrong? It is the reality. When did Nigerians start this privacy BS that they don't even understand?
Exclusive101: So where is your father compare to Osibanjo ? Will any of your unborn generation chair a council talk more of presiding over a country till Jesus come ?!
/ If you are a real man, you should compare yourself to him. Leave Osibanjo out of it. He is being well-taken care of and he has a spokesperson.
billionaire driving a 2001 landcruiser.. couldnt even afford a police escort that 3k to 4k would get you

/ Have you seen Innoson or Gabros or the so-called Awada landlords? They are not ostriches--folks who dress to impress God-knows-Who. I am actually surprised he was not putting on shorts and bathroom slippers.
You seem like the person that will rate Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Zuckerberg or Bezos lower than Hushpuppi because the latter wears Gucci while the others can buy the Gucci company. Keep chasing shadows.
These are your billionaires. Go to Congo and SW, there are many of them.
To Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere, grammar without action is but entertainment, preaching without practicing what you preached is but greed, a philosophy he anchored on, to propagate the gospel of our lord Jesus Christ. He is an ardent advocate of the return of Christianity doctrines to the old time religion, a belief that propelled him into the donation of a modern free specialist Hospital in Port Harcourt. The aim is to respond to the need of the less privileged and vulnerable members of the society, who could not afford to remedy their hospital bill during delivery or even attained to antenatal care services. The hospital is non discriminatory, irrespective of religion, denomination or tribe.
The situation is not different, as Mrs Saratu Musa, a Muslim faithfuls from Yobe State but reside at Rumukrusi, Port Harcourt in company of her husband in October 18th 2019 visited the hospital during her 7 weeks gestation period to be registered for free antenatal care.
The good news now is that, Mrs Musa on 26th May 2020 delivered safely a baby girl in OPM free specialist Hospital. Mrs Musa who believed God is one, no matter who you are and where you come from always participate in the daily antenatal morning devotion.
Everything that has to do with antenatal or baby care during delivery were all provided for her by the Church, this is not excluding her daily three square meals for the period she remains in the hospital, courtesy of the members and non members tithes and offerings
/ Good gesture; silly publicity.
Why can't they talk about the humanitarian aspect of it without bringing religion into the discussion. She is human first before she became a muslim
COMPAQ: I might want to lash out at you for the unwarranted insult on my father and myself who have done nothing to you, but I’ll be the better man!
If prices come down all well and good, but what it taught me was invest and try to grow beyond the pace of inflation. And I’m happy to say I’ve done that and not done too badly for myself by global standards. So if you want to spend your time moaning about the state of Nigeria, go right ahead.
Fortunately I have gone beyond that!!
/ I...I...I. Me...me...me. Myself...myself and myself.
It doesn't matter if inflation is 10000% like in Zimbabwe. As long as COMPAQ is ok financially, the rest of humanity can go to hell. Listen to yourself. You are too selfish.
You believe the economists checking inflation are morons. It all just have to be about you.
/ The guy who is contemplating moving back to Nigeria because of the death of George Floyd should read this and see the animals he will be dealing with in Nigeria. As bad as US society may be, it could not pair in comparison to the shenanigans going on in Nigeria. It is a hopeless and helpless situation.
The only way to move freely in Nigeria is to go with police or military escorts.
COMPAQ: Well said. My Dad said something in my teens which stuck with me always.
"Don't bother praying for prices of things to come down. Pray that you will always be able to afford it even as it goes up"
/ That's because your father ain't Einstein. So the fuel price that came down was a curse to you according to your father's theory? Of course I am not advocating I.Q tests as prerequisite for procreation.
I wasn’t angry when I broke the card. I just wanted to make sure that:
i. I will not be able to use the card or account anymore.
ii. I will be forced to open a new regular bank account.
The Story (in brief)
I suffered a failed POS transaction yesterday.
I sent Wema ALAT a mail and they are yet to reply as of now (almost 24 hours later).
I called them this morning and listened to a recorded message about how my call may be delayed because of COVID-19. I quickly cut the call. Their customer wasn’t effective before the virus came along, so I wonder what to expect now.
I later visited their bank and the customer care rep told me the transaction will be reversed within 14 days, if they were sure that I was really unable to withdraw the money.
14 days? Why is this so?
The money doesn’t even belong to me and the owner is very angry with me right now. Someone sent it to her and she wanted to use someone else's account to receive it, but I convinced her to use me—and then this happened.
Worse, she needs it for feeding and I don't have any money to give her. (She wasn’t paying me for the service in case you’re wondering.)
I suffered the same thing in the hands of GTB. (Their regular customer service email complaints@gtbank.com isn't even working anymore.)
In fact, I opened a WEMA Alat account because of GTB’s failures. I thought Alat will be better since they marketed themselves as a “Digital Bank”, but it appears that I was wrong. They are “digital” in name only.
This should be the third or fourth time WEMA Alat is doing this sort of nonsense to me. And that is without counting the failed mobile and POS transfers.
I am actually not concerned about GTB’s and Wema’s failures. I just hate their terrible customer service.
Failed transactions are one thing. I actually consider them normal. However, poor customer service and unwillingness to quickly solve failed online transactions aren’t. And this is unfortunately common with most banks and businesses in this country.
Now, I’ve have made the decision to stop going cashless. I will start moving around with cash henceforth. I’m sick and tired of all these failed POS transactions and sluggish customer service reps.
I know I will still do some online transactions but that will be occasionally (online shopping, international payments, etc.)
That said, I want you all to answer these two questions:
1. Which bank is reliable for online transactions?
2. Which bank has the most effective customer care service in this country?
I’m thinking of opening a Union bank account since I can see they have revamped their business, but I don't want to jump into conclusions as I did with Alat.
Could you all help me out?
P.S. Please UBA and Skye (if this one still exists) are out of the equation. I used them in the past and can confidently say they are terrible. They steal money.
I don’t want Access bank too. I’ve never read anything good about them. They and fraud are relatives. I don’t want Diamond bank either since they are the new owners of Access bank.
So, any suggestions?
/ I have nothing negative to say about Zenith bank compared to other Nigerian banks.
MinorityOpinion: E be like Buhari administration patronized innoson motors than GEJ administration.. With what we are seeing from the media it's impressive..
/ Only idiotic and myopic section of people of Igbo extraction treat GEJ as hero because he appointed people with familiar surnames into his cabinet without implementing any programs/projects that positively affect the Igbo people. Is it 2nd Niger bridge? Federal Highways?
People don't understand what political interests mean. They are still in bed with their emotions as if that is the solution.
/ Good thing it is from the Health Minister else the omnipresent obligate mouth-breathing morons here on NL would have classified naysayers as conspiracy theorists.
There are many laws in Nigeria which are neither enforced nor implemented. As soon as Obiano leaves, it becomes obsolete. Heck! If any of their parents die, they will be the first to break the law.
olisaEze: Before the inception of sense in this our obodo Naija, the yorubas have always realized the potential of proper education for the next generation. This sort of news is a breath of fresh air in a country filled with self serving interests and contract begging monarchs! This king will certainly live forever in these people’s hearts and minds whether u wish him long life or not!
Ah say ah go add this man to my hall of fame, one aboki say no make ah add bubu instead. Na d matta we dey settle since morning bi that!
/ Education is very important so that they can gather multiple degrees that they will use in worshipping an aboki that barely finished primary school. Something is inherently wrong in a society in which a professor is gleefully subservient to a WASC holder.
Education is not just about sitting in classes, passing exams and being issued certificates.
Every other tribe believes that Igbo people are their problem. Until they admit there is a major problem, let's not break it to fix it. The status quo is perfect. If 50% of that list were to be Igbo names, people of ND will start fuming in their mouth. As it is, they are happy and comfortable doing security jobs at NNPC while the Northerners milk their resources.
/ Who among the "p"sychophants can tell Buhari to keep his mouth shut? Buhari may not do anything but the IGP will take it personal just to please oga.
wisdomiskey: That's my problem too. I tend to get frustrated with Nigeria after 3 weeks - a month.
It's just the current global crisis making me reconsider relocating. The honest truth is I don't feel secure in the white man's land any longer - I just want the best for my kids to come.
Hope it won't backfire if I go ahead. Nigeria too has it's own issues
/. The good thing about US is that there are many places you can live and raise your kids comfortably. Move to more tolerant (or so-called democratic/red) states.
If still in doubt, go and stay in Nigeria for 6 months consistently. You will be reminded why you left in the first place. You will stop living and start managing life. \
I really need an advice. I currently work with one of the Nigerian banks. My monthly take home is about 450k and quite good. My major problem right now is that I have just been transferred from a Branch at one end of Lagos to another end of Lagos. All efforts to convince my boss to deploy me to a closer branch has proved abortive.
Going to work daily right now is a very difficult especially during this raining season and covid 19th period. I spend roughly 3-4 hours on the road when going to work and back home.
I am currently raising my kids on my own right now and dont know how I would manage when school resumes. Before now I drop them off on my way to work in the morning and my friend picks them up to her house in the afternoon till I get back.
I currently have a savings of 2million and would love to start a biz( I dont know what kind) as am comptemplating resigning and start a biz instead so that I can have time for my kids and not die due to stress
Please i really need advice for you all.
/ Common N50k/month jobs, stadium dey fill. Na im you want throway N450k/month job on top stress.
I will advise that you stay away from any communication with your village people. They have remembered you.
Most people are worried about unemployment but you are worried about your ego. SMH.
What am I saying? Resign. I believe in tough love.
/ It is a developmental process. For the experience and network, it is worth it. The problem is that most Nigerian graduates do not fully understand the essence of university education. You don't have to go to university just to get a job. Everyone is not cut out to be an employee.
/ Moving to Nigeria is a gradual process. It should take atleast 5 years of planning which involves going and coming back. This will offer you the opportunity to test your tolerance level. With $30k, budget $5k for long stories and disappointments. Most people who pack up and leave usually run back in less than a year.
I have all the resources to stay in Nigeria but a month at a time in Nigeria is more than enough. I get bored after one month. /
The people who should be protesting are more worried about Trump and Floyd in far away America.
When Americans finish rioting, the lazy suckers will line up at the Embassy to migrate to enjoy the sweat of others. They even have the effrontery to whine when American Embassy tells them to sit back and develop their own country. /
The pastors will fleece the sheeple of their remaining meagre funds. Thanksgiving time for surviving corona? The money pours in. They deserve to be scammed.
It is bad enough that he appointed Ms Ngozi but her surname is Ugochi- Igbo. Now that's called rubbing it in. Ngozi is Igbo. Ugochi is Igbo. Yet she joined Igbo to her surname. I hope EMTs in the state are ready for the massive heart attacks. Na ordinary aide o!
