He is RIGHT. APC is not even supposed to have up to 15votes but one way or the other some people voted for APC, and by rigging and deducing opponents votes , by vote buying, they are able to come this far

There are miserable people and saddists in life.

They'd rather maintain the status quo than be progressive.

"Misery needs company" is not just a quote, it is a fact.

There are no perfect alternatives to Buhari but even a goat is better than Buhari-- he doesn't belong in the 21st century. Every other nation has moved on.

Hello Nairalanders! Plz help! I hv been scared and confused abt a risk I want to tk so I decided to share for advice.

Im 29 and I hv a boyfriend who is 33. We hv been happily dating for close to 3 years now, he once helped me financially in a good way with 100k when I had problem with my little business, then he was doing pretty fine with his business, I sell plastics and hez into cloth business. But somtin happened last 2 months, he had terrible problems with his business and lost almost everything including his shop and in a bid to salvage his situation he ended up owing many pple, when all these started he didn't tell me, thou hez a kind of person that likes handling his problem alone without disturbing or telling me which I don't like bcus it somehow makes me feel less important and useful to him, I got to know when he changed, his attitude, moods and everything changed, hez always disturbed, thinking and always visiting pple, he payed less concern and attention to me, don't even call and when I call, he will be in a haste to end it, I became confused, so I had to asked what was going on, he said nothing, I got upset and insisted he must tell me, he then opened up, I felt so bad and almost cried, since then I have been trying to maintain his upkeep and sometimes give him money which hez not comfortable with.

The problem now Is that im scared, he asked for a huge amount of money from me which is 700k, he wants to start all over again in his cloth business and also clear some debt, and I can only boast of 820k home and abroad as a business woman, i just feel he saw my account balance before asking for this, Im scared to loose the money and him too. I love this guy but im so scared of doing this, he helped me when I needed money, but this sacrifice is bigger than me, he showed and detailed everything he will be doing with the money, Im just confused to gamble with my life savings, I know I might sound ungrateful what if the business or our relationship crumble? Won't I be stranded and doomed? My business is not that strong and we all know how most of sacrifices like this ended for people. Is this kind of risk worth doing for a boyfriend

Plz advice me on what to do, plz.

/
Hedge your position. If you must, do not give him more than N350K, that is 50%.

That way you will have something to fall back on if he pulls a Houdini.

Come to think of it, if N820K is your home and abroad, you have no business lending money to anyone

Is Davido's campaign for the uncle a selfless service or will an Adeleke win broaden his horizon financially and politically? I don't understand what all the accolades is all about.
What does Adeleke's win mean for David? An honest answer to this question (by you for you) will clear your brain.

The people I weep for are the ones who arbitrarily assign a role model to anyone who becomes wealthy. People believe in "do as I say and not as I do". Some of the old layers who used Linda nwa Ikeji as excuses have been left to rot. Who is deceiving who? The delight on her face is priceless.

Of course, Linda is not engaged. The moment she found out that she is pregnant, they cooked up that story preparatory to this bigger news to avoid the inherent scandal of a gossip queen considering that she preached celibacy to her gullible followers. If you are waiting for Linda Ikeji's wedding, you may have to wait forever. It ain't going to happen. The next news will be how she broke off the engagement using feminism as an excuse. Then her gullible followers will swallow the nonsense too.

The era of customers losing money to banks has passed.
The CBN is right, no customer should panic, at least that's y we have d NDIC.

/
If the bank goes belly up, be rest assured that you ain't getting a Kobo from NDIC even in 10years. Few years of passing the buck, blame game, investigations and hoping depositors forget about it will be enough to send people to early graves.

/

/
No need panicking.

The ability to make withdrawals is the only confirmation needed that your money is safe.

But knowing Nigerian banks, keep your fingers crossed.

There are reasons why bank failures are announced on Fridays. It is to avoid chaos and give depositors ample time to absorb the shock before monday.

Linda has created a cult of followers who, if not for the pregnancy, find it inconceivable that she is a runs girl on the down low. The level of gullibility is appalling.

Blame Jeremi.

/

/
Linda can defeat Kemi. But Stella? It will be an interesting fight. She always gets insider information and hits hard.
I feel sorry for Linda's dad. He knows the right thing but cannot advise her daughter.
The Ikeji family got what they want--unmarried Linda. If Linda gets married, their main source of livelihood will be shared with another family who didn't know their struggles. And that is the main threat. They are very happy with the status quo.

Most Naija graduates haven't seen 1million naira in cash before unless when they visit the bank .

But I know some stark illiterate wey employ master degree holder

Fucck education

/
Some people don't even know the meaning of education. They think it is sitting in a class, passing exams and getting a certificate.

Education could be formal or informal. But unemployed or underemployed Nigerian graduates find succour in brandishing their proofs of formal education like it is a guaranteed means to an end.

Nigerians are not looking for a saint--none exists in the political arena.

They are asking for the lesser of two evils. Buhari, Saraki and the rest of them are greedy and dangerous. The question is: Who among them is the least greedy and dangerous? I will vote anyone other than Buhari. Failure should not breed stagnation. GEJ's wife preached "repetition of a class after failure" forgetting than livelihoods were at stake. Nigerians didn't buy that disgraceful analogy. By all means we shall keep voting them out until we get to the least devilish. Buhari must go. Buhari is not equipped physically, emotionally and intellectually to lead any nation in this fast-paced era.

Soleymania:
Weddings are usually a ceremony of great joy but today the sorrow that follows some wedding ceremonies raises questions in ones heart.

Who decreed that Christians must have white weddings which we have now christened church or Christian marriage.

How many marriages were conducted in the sanctuary or temple in Bible days? Should we really spend so much to get married?

We have heard stories of people arranging some part of their marriage ceremony on credit in the hope that they will make enough from the spraying of money during the bridal dance to offset their loans.

I remember attending a wedding where the DJ refused to turn on the microphone because he had not been fully paid for his service at the reception. We pleaded and pleaded but he would not budge. Someone had to go to an ATM to get the cash for him before the reception could begin.

What type of marriage ceremonies were carried out in Bible days? How were these ceremonies conducted? Does having your marriage ceremony in church add anything to your marriage?

Let's share notes and thoughts on this.

/
Not decreed.

It is an after effect of brainwashing of Africans. Some are candid enough to call it white wedding. Wedding is the official union of man and woman to become a husband and wife. Why would people do their traditional wedding, followed by white wedding? Yet they are blacks. The whites only do their normal white wedding which is their tradition and move on.

Like I always say, the black race is long lost.

No big deal.

This is nothing compared to the drama other baby mamas and baby daddy go through.

The ladies that are quick to become baby mama should thread carefully...it is not all rosy as painted sometimes.

You only learn about the problems from the ones who dare put their lives on social media. Behind closed curtain is a mess.

All these from one baby mama drama? Add the other two baby mamas to the equation and Whizkid is in hot soup.

I won't necessarily call a man with an AK-47 with only 12 rounds of ammunition a soldier. They are being sent on a suicide mission.

Select all the middlebelt and southern folks in the armed forces and deploy them up North. Then leak their movement to BH and read report on the casualties in an airconditioned room in Abuja.

Hunger game?

They are probably taking it to a panel-beater for body work and respraying.

Betterchoice:
This section has been very helpful.

I am a young lawyer and on the verge of rounding off my NYSC.

I have been thinking of how to secure a good future hence have been considering migrating to Canada or the USA.


Law is not a STEM course and switching career may not be easy at all.

I am wondering if there are opportunities for Lawyers in Canada or the USA (or even New Zealand, Australia.)

I am looking at migrating via Masters degree --- that''s if I can gain a full or partial scholarship with 3.9 CGPA on a 5 point scale or migrating through Canadian FSW.


Or do I just stay back in Nigeria?

I can raise 2 million naira.

Suggestions needed please. I am tired. Seriously tired because the future looks bleak.

/
Who says that you must practice law? There are many attorneys who are not practicing law and they are living well.

The legal education has equipped you with some experience in other endeavours you may find yourself.

This is why people roast criminals caught in the act instead of dealing with the shenanigans of NPF.

Those against street violence against criminals are those who'd never been victims of criminals or who'd never been through the NPF's process of prosecuting criminals.

Ah!

But truth be told, we now know how she acquired the banana Island property and other business boom. Though her hardwork helped her a bit but destroying the lives of her female fans when she herself is verdict of DICKionary shows how hypocritical she is.

Atimes when I think of her blogging business making who she is makes me laugh.

/
Don't blame Linda. She mastered the game and used it to her advantage.

Blame the low self-esteemed sheepies that believe every wonderful story they read online. Snap next to a nice car and post on Instagram, it automatically becomes yours. That's Nigerians for you.

Anyone with an iota of brain knows that Linda has a paymaster supporting her. Thousands of Nigerians ran into blogging thereafter and one after the other, they gave up.

The truth is gradually sipping through the cracks.

Don't you just love Nigerians?

MMM? They cheered!

Minimum wage is N100k? They cheered.

NYSC allowance becomes N50k? They cheered.

N1 == $1? They cheered.

Nigerian Air? They cheered.

At the end, they are all illusions.

Of course, Nigerians are very smart.

Buhari is still making promises if elected beyond 2019. Guess what? They are still cheering.

They deserve the leadership they get.

//

/
Mock him all you want, what I see is a real man.

Even if he loses, at least he tried.

There is no harm in trial.

Buhari won't be the President today if he wasn't resilient.

Fear of failure had made many people unsuccessful.

The road to success is not paved in gold.

Misery loves company.

Don't forget the quote

At least Okorocha admitted it unlike the clowns that keep posting pictures of Owerri as El Dorado on nairaland.

Nigerians are their worst enemies....just for a monthly token. Where is that Abagworo dude?

/

/
A Nigerian's life is worthless. They should try kidnapping a white American, British or French girl. All International protocols will be set aside as Marines, Infantries and air support will take over Sambisa forest.

But Buhari is busy carrying on like everything is ok while the idiotic masses cheer him on as a great leader. What leader?!

Don't these ladies research about people's cultures before they marry?

This post is focused in Nigeria and I asked the question not basically for myself but other people who may want to check the paternity if the kids in their respective homes.

Don't we have competent laboratories in Nigeria without accreditations from foreign missions in Nigeria ?

/
There are many credible labs. But for official purposes, you must go to the appointed labs because of Nigerians' penchant for forgery. Folks like your senators and Adeosun lay credence to that stereotype.

Everyone that adorns a military uniform is automatically elevated to an immortal machine in Nigeria... psychological defeat even before a fight.

lol mumu talk. if you want to see the president you'll wait.
I know you are not Donald trump or Mohammad buhari so there is someone that still keeps you waiting in this country.

yes you'll just make a call to submit proposals and contract papers too. I was right when I called you a kid. you've never experienced the cooperate world.

funny guy

LOL.
I will never submit proposal and contract papers. Hire people to do that and do follow up phone calls. Just keep quiet and you may learn a thing or two.
