Another piece that will come from twisting the bible to suit yourself.
May God help you Toks
/ The OP is righr except....
When bible was written, herpes, Hep C, HIV and AIDS did not exist. The only consideration then was spiritual and not medical or physical ramifications of cheating.
OP needs to bring the preaching to 21st century. \
mascot87: I will be very brief and I am sure we all can learn one or two things from this. I hope also that I construct this well.
I do travel out of my location here in Lagos very well to other part of the country and it's normal that I get an hotel to lodge. On arrival to an affordable hotel, I pay for the hotel room and check in. Take my bath and relax a bit then I check the hotel menu list for breakfast, lunch or dinner as the case may be.
I do observe something for the past two years but didn't really take it serious not until when I travelled to Aba and Port Harcourt around March this year and same thing repeats itself.
After checking the menu list and the price of the food u want to eat. You call the restaurant and place your order but as soon as your order was delivered, the price is always more than what is on the menu list. Sometimes it could be has high as a thousand Naira.
I do pay all the time and didn't read any meaning to it but when I was at Aba around March, I protested when the same thing repeats itself and I said to myself that if such repeat itself anytime I travel and lodge in any hotel, I will only pay the charge as indicated on the menu list. Fast forward to today, I travelled to Abuja and as usual lodged at an hotel in town. Now this evening I ordered for my dinner at a fixed price on the menu list only for the price of my order to be far above what was written in the menu list. I told the lady that brought my dinner that I will only pay the cost of the dish in the menu list but she insisted that I will pay at #500 more than I was expected to pay giving me excuses that the price on the menu list was the old price.
I request to see the manager and within a second, she disappeared but I still went ahead to see the hotel manager but on my way, I met one of the hotel attendants who was listening to my argument with the lady and he told me that I shouldn't go to the manager cos there is nothing the manager can do and that they are working on the new price list but I ignored him. When I got to the hotel manager, i told him what happened and why customers cannot pay the exact cost of dish in the menu list but have to pay far more. He was suprised cos I saw the shock on his face. He sent for d lady that do serve dish for customer but not to expose her in my presence, he told me to go and I should pay the exact price on the menu list when she comes around to collect money.
When the lady later came around to collect the money, I saw the anger on her face which confirms my suspicion that those people generate income for themselves through such disgraceful means and it as become a common trend in some hotels (I don't want to generalize).
Don't know who else have noticed such but next time you lodge in an hotel and observe such, insist on paying the exact cost as seen on the menu price list.
I love honest people and sometimes give extra tips to them of some few cash even after rendering services to me but trying to play a fast one is a no no for me.
Let us be observant.
I think lalasticlala can also read this and add to his knowledge of snake
\ I hope you are only staying in the hotel for a day. No more food from their kitchen. One can only imagine the amount of spit and phlegm they will mix with your next food orders. Be kind to strangers who handle your food. A better option is to eat outside the hotel. /
Omenkalive is busy drinking panadol for IPOB headache while generations are being decimated in his backyard by Ortom's maladministration and gallant blood-thirsty fulani men.
That's assuming he was not one of the victims. Person wey im house dey burn wey dey pursue rat.
MaziOmenuko: 6 months is even far...just 2 weeks and watch the result. Me have learned not to expect so much from my friends so I wont be disappointed. We humans are gradually loosing touch of humanity; theres now online friends u don't see, we tend to communicate more with machines (phones, computers) than our fellow humans. I fear for what we would become in the next few decades.
I believe that every human being has only two friends. Three will be a crowd.
/ Pretend that you have hit rockbottom for six months and you will see who your real friends are. Until you do this, everyone around you is a stranger. The sooner the better.
HungerBAD: You dated a lesbian?i have come across thousands in my Society here,but i tend to avoid them thinking they like girls only.
Especially the musculine types.
I apologize for my naivety here,but what are the signs to recognize lesbians in Nigeria?i know they are not as open as those in the Western Society who flaunt theirs.
/ Assume that all of them are lesbians until proved otherwise.
They get into it from secondary school level. Lesbianism is more common than most will like to admit. Don't let the pretentious and religious mien deceive you. \
/ For those wondering why FFK is a turncoat...how can you have this beautiful Igbo woman at home and not support anything and everything Igbo? Go against your in-laws and your home turns to a battleground.
FFK is under leash and has been tamed. Take it or leave it. //
A lot of landlords are indeed socially irresponsible. Imagine we my client and I spoke to the landlords association of the area that we have paid for a payloader to grade the road, we pleaded that they should patner with us by contributing some trips of rubbles to push the work far and possibly grade the full road.
The part where our building is has been cut off from the remaining part of the street due to stagnant ground water from the water logged soil. Till today we are yet to get response from them. So we decided to do the work on our own but stop where our power can take us.
It's sad that in 2017 we still have residents and landlords waiting for the government to come service the tranche roads leading to our strees. We just lack little co-operation and a sense of responsibility to our immediate environment. I pray God will heal our mindsets one day.
Don't blame the landlords.
It could be irritating paying all the levies to the government and yet expected to provide electricity, water and access roads. What good is the government then? To top it off, sometimes these agents of the government will expect bribe before a willing landlord can construct such a road. Nigeria is a frustrating place to do anything meaningful.
AngelicBeing: Good, Nigeria should send a team of professionals in different fields to the UAE - Dubai , the team should go and learn what makes things work in that part of the world, the team should be on ground for a minimum of 6 months and they should bring a comprehensive report back to the National Assembly , tinker with their findings and implement it, another set of professionals should be sent to Malaysia, Singapore, Hongkong, Western Europe, America and Oceania,all with the same mindset, because it seems with all the useless policies we keep churning out as a nation after independence is stagnating the country, why not go and learn what others are doing that makes them succeed, apply some of it and move the country forward instead of all this jankara economic policies that is obsolete, archaic and not working,Albert Einstein says and l quote >> Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result
If you like send them to heaven, they ain't going to learn sh!t. You forget that implementing what they will learn will involve critical thinking which is alien to Nigerians.
Their only interest will be the estacodes. Common electricity, refinery and road construction are still regarded as technology from Jupiter.
Why not build your house? 1 week to learn masonry 2 weeks to learn carpentry 2 weeks to become iron bender 1 month in the gym for all the lifting and digging (foundation, concrete, cement,rods,etc)
2 weeks to be an electrician 2 weeks for plumbing.
All added together will be 3 months of preparation. Then give the middle finger to contractors and artisans.
A good boss always finds ways to get other intelligent folks to work for him/her while s/he rewards them with titles and award plaques. The same reason C students employ A and first class graduates.
Chinedu Echeruo did it the right way. He developed hotspot.com and sold to Apple for $1 billion. You got to think like them if you are in their league. /
Your mother is ill. The solution involves money. If the scan at Akwaibom didn't point the personnel in the right direction, go for a scan in a different facility, second medical opinion that is. If you continue listening to rumours (a friend told me kind of stories), moronic prayer warriors, herbalists in this forum, your mother's problem may become exacerbated. CT scan/MRI, neurologist are the two areas your family should be focused on right now. After the healing, your family can then go for Thanksgiving in your church. \
Destined2win: Keep praying and believe. Don't be praying and crying. You pray and cheer up. Speak faith into your Mum. Make her understand that no prayer will work on her until she believes and act accordingly. She will be healed
Are you this dumb or just pretending to be stupid?
Adeboye, TB Joshua and even the pope go for medical treatments and you are advising someone with chronic pain to continue to pray.
Stop putting the Lord your God to test. God that put doctors in this world to heal patients is not stupid.
Babyme1: What kind of scan did they do? Did she see a neurologist? Ask the doctors to administer anesthetic nerve blockers. If that provides relief, then medical cum algorithmic approach will be necessary. /
/ Buhari has nothing to do with the menace of the herdsmen.
Was Buhari with them at the time the crime was committed? No!
Blame the communities that stand idle and let them get away.
Herdsmen and their cattle do not appear and disappear from thin air. The slaughter will stop when various states and communities declare them personae non grata that must be evacuated with force. Preaching peace to terrorists is idiotic. They must be spoken to in the only language they understand. They are already preparing for the next slaughter while folks are pontificating online and offline.
NwaObinkita: Does she know how much that will cost? From $7,500 to $15,000 irrespective of their choices. She should collect money from her sugar daddy to foot the bills. If it is that expensive to bring a dead body or even bury it there, they should kukuma donate the body to the hospital for research and even get paid.
I was terribly worried about the new baby but with this her breást, I am rest assured that the baby Moji left behind will not suffer.
Nwa akwo n'azu amaghi na ije di anya
LOL.
You are heartless. Well...
That's why we organize wakekeep-- to raise fund for burial.
$100x75 people == $7500.
The family will definitely get more than that. Nigerians would rather donate $100 each for a burial than give the person $5 when alive. \
See the rumpled scattered bed they put her on The mattress is even so flat. Seems it is a very cheap hospital
/ That is the right position. Didn't you read that she died of cardiac arrest? They ran ACLS protocol on her. I expect the bed to be flat as seen. Evidently the picture was taken after she was pronounced because the ET tube with Hollister is still in place. \
LOL. NOI: The puppet that neocolonialists used to destroy Nigeria's economy. Nigeria is not independent. Ever wonder why Nigerian leaders have to take permission from thd West before taking major decisions.
The most effective way to lure slaves was using folks who look and talk like them. NOI did a hatchet job and was rewarded accordingly. \
Ajasco222: Quite Shameful. This video trending online shows two Nigerians in Dublin, Ireland attacking their landlord who wanted to evict them after they destroyed his house with fire.
Instead of leaving the house, they accused him of racism and tried to fight to get back into the home with pieces of the burned out house.
After some time, one of them who spoke Yoruba said " Look at you, as old as you are, fighting with young boys like us. You are supposed to be in your house drinking tea".
LOL. The landlord will embrace the next renters if they are Nigerians because according to some folks they cannot form an opinion without coming in contact with the other remaining 200m Nigerians. What happened to precautionary measures? The two yoruba guys are already shouting racism. If they are racist, they wouldn't have rented to them in the first place. But racism fits their narratives and the others with victim mentalities will jump into the bandwagon. Thanks for the video.
kpaminose: They wrote about Nigerians not training their kids in a proper way that's why I wrote about those petty stuffs. What I saw there is just a nonsense Racist outburst and anybody that agree with any point there should get his/her head checked. To be frank, there is more crime going on in America than Nigeria. Murder? there are more psychos in America murdering people anyhow. The only murder going on in Nigeria is the Fulani herdsmen and BOko Haram that's cordinated terrorism which the Western Nations also share in the Blame. Especially the Fulani Herdsmen. The day you realize that the west got nothing but hatred for you, is the day you stop worshiping them. If you don't know history, Europe is responsible for all the ills happening in Nigeria today. they're still doing it till today. I don't talk about symptoms. I talk about what gave rise to those symptoms.
/ Who is the bigger fool? The one who pays you to destroy your house OR you that accepts pittance to raze your house? Every atrocity committed by whites against blacks is always with the connivance of fellow blacks.
By the way, why are refineries in Nigeria not working? Why is electricity a huge problem since "Independence"? Whites?
Do you really need to come in contact with 200m Nigerians to have an opinion about Nigerians?
If that is the case, then statistics is useless. If you take 10 random samples and the 10 samples are bad, one can deduce that everything in the general population is bad. You hear stories about drug burst, Yoruba folks run to the thread assuming that the criminal is an Igbo. You read about a scam, Igbo folks start yelling "afonja" in jubilation. How many Igbo or Yoruba drug dealers or scammers do you know? It quacks like a duck, it must be a duck.
Generalization backed by statistics is acceptable. Change your ways!
Sad but funny. You will never hear a Nigerian argue that a place is good but Nigeria is better. Every argument from Nigeria is always about comparing the bad things about Nigeria with others to determine which is worse. /
/ What he wrote about Nigerians is exactly why Nigerians hate Nigerians.
The only people vouching for Nigerians are the ones on the receiving end. Work ethics and professionalism? Not without stringent supervision. Even the first citizen cannot trust his life with Nigerian doctors. Yeah. That's really inspirational. A good ambassador indeed!
Customs, military, police, politicians, the clergy; name one group of Nigerian representatives that anyone could trust. Crime is the only prerequisite to leadership. Take a closer look at your politicians. Nigerians sure know how to choose them.
Nigerians do not trust Nigerians. How do you expect foreigners to trust Nigerians? Like the saying goes, " na as goat take stand dem dey price am". I trust Nigerians. Sadly it is only about 0.000000001% of them. Take it or leave it.
Be angry all you want. A beggar has no choice. He who pays the piper determines the tune. Nigerian government and Nigerians are easily stretching out hands for free gifts. They want aid from the West. But they have $2bn to waste on bribery during election. They have $43m lying idle in a secluded apartment. Name one invention from Nigeria. Nada. Nigerians may choose how they see themselves. But that delusion ends once they present the green passport at any border. Racism, xenophobia--these are terms you hear from Nigerians while they nuture ethnicism and tribalism. If whites and fellow Africans hate Nigerians, it is time for sober reflection. //
larrypourl: What you earn determines what you spend. The 4k might be too much for some people per day and could be too small for others, all in all, spend wisely.
Big size quality loafers for sale, size 45 black and Size 47 brown up for grab at cool prices if you're in Lagos and you're interested, holla.
SmartMugu: I didn't lie. I don't even lie, why would I do that on a random forum to some random people I don't even know? That's what he told me about his marriage. I live in the US, so your mention of 50% and other stuff you mentioned just shows you don't know what you're saying about the US. You probably still live with mom and dad, or just new to the US. Otherwise, you would have learnt things vary from state to state in the US. Marriage laws are different from state to state, why then would you assume divorce laws are same all over the US? Have you ever thought of why people fly to Vegas to marry versus another city they live in? If you haven't, then don't say nothing else.
There may be some other pre-nuptial agreements or jointly owned properties. It may be for more than just alimony. Dude is an architect and makes about $85k, his wife didn't work according to him. I don't know his home like he did.
Outrightly calling me a liar over my comment is wrong. I know this place wayyy more than you.
/ Say what you want. No one will be ordered to pay 5 years alimony on a 3 months marriage even in "at fault" state. Your friend fed you the BS because he knows that you are an ignoramus. \
