So Chuka did not see any Nkechi, Nkoli or Njideka to marry?



When this Sullivan takes half his shiit in the divorce, he shouldnt come and worry ndi umunna o!

The girl does not even have 'Ukwu'. So how will she tie two wrapper and blouse to attend August meeting?

/
You guys are funny.

Chuka is only Igbo by name. I don't think he understands a word of Igbo language. The only time he came to Nigeria was when the father died. He was born and bred in England.
The late dad was a Nigerian (from Anambra State) and the mom is a Briton. He has never visited Nigeria since the 80s.

How do you expect him to marry into a culture he is not familiar with?

Your comment will not discourage me in anyway. It is better to beg than to steal. You ve to know tht I ve been a member of this forum right from onset, things ve never being this tough for me. Life is full of ups and downs. One thing am proud of is tht when I had money I touched life and am grateful that some kind hearted people here are willing to help. May God bless them. I cannot sell my car cos I cannot afford bat3 is like asking me to dirvoce my wife cos things are hard

/
If things are as bad as you claim, the last thing on your mind should be throwing money down to fix a car.

It takes money to keep a car running.

Please I am having same battery issue and it has been embarassing to me new one is roughly 18k I don't mind if u can help me with something financially zenith acct 2007820971 God bless u

If you can't afford a battery, you shouldn't be owning a car.

What's next? Money for fuel?

Are people this shameless about begging?

Hi all,
My car battery (wet cell) was showing signs of impending failure, I had an electrician drain, replace the electrolyte and charge the battery.
however the battery still can't fully retain charge, my multimeter show it at 11 volts instead of 13 volts for a fully charged battery.
I read that epsom salt helps in de-sulphating the weak batteries to make them retain electric charge.

Has anyone tried this? Or does any one know where I can get epsom salt crystals?

/
How much is a new battery to go through this crap?

Everything in life has a lifespan including car batteries.

There is no need setting yourself up for failure.
\

/
Nigerians never cease to amaze me.

Why should an individual build a police station for Nigeria Police Force -- a federally funded security organization?

This trend must be condemned.

I don't know where we have miss it, Even a Nairaland moderator name Honeric01 is trying to scam me of 96k. Pls I beg on @seun and other moderators and good people of nairaland to come to my aid. If we can't trust moderators on nairaland who can we trust. Pls I need help on this issue

/
Be careful.

I have been hit up many times with sob stories: School fees, accommodation fee, etc. One sent me a photoshopped admission letter. When I called him out on it, he disappeared.

Ask for phone number, call and verify first. I am tired of Nigerians and their shenanigans. Even when one tries to help, scammers see it as an opportunity. There are many amateur scammers on nairaland.

Your people of peace are at it again.

The muslims that love to claim that Islam is a religion of peace always get disappointed.

\

/
There is nothing special about Jos.

The so-called "Millionaires' Quarters" is just "one eyed among the blind" establishment.

The weather is very cold around Christmas. The hills have beautiful lowers.

Every other thing looks like a typical Northern city.

The city is stagnant.

haydotzed:
Islam preaches peace and no sane Muslim with d knowledge of Quran will perpetrate such an havoc. To answer you bigot, you certainly no nothing about Islam and what it preaches. If you blv Muslims are blood suckers, what should we call the western powers? As been said by a fellow nairalander, the aim of a terrorist is to create a sense of fear and insecurity among ppl... Coming to a secular state like Nigeria, it would be wrong and hypocritic of anyone to say boko-haram are Muslims when obviously dey go to mosques and do what dey know how to do. I guess dos praying in mosque are not Christian nor jew. I will suggest u check ur brain if it's really perfect as human being... Cos d word ISLAM signifies PEACE not violent.

/
Nice public speech. We have heard these lines before.

Every muslim is not a terrorist; every terrorist is a muslim.

When they strap you, you will not hesitate to pull that pin.

At least we know that the men get 72 virgins. What will you get?

It is easier to give water to a monkey, retrieving the cup is the real problem.
It is easier to call Boko Haram to jihad, containing them is where the real problem.

This is the dilemma of the muslims in the North. They are reaping what they sowed.

Not Again

What offence did France committed to deserve this vicious (terrorist) attacks?

Is there any war(s) the country's troops are currently engaged in?
What really went wrong in one of the most peaceful European country?

/
France is suffering from political correctness. They opened their borders and let islamic immigrants take a foothold in France. Muslims are better left alone in their enclaves. They can elect to bomb themselves to oblivion. The progressives who think that showing leniency to those savages would change their murderous mindsets will live to regret it.

Just like Boko Haram...contain them in the North. They ran out of christians to maim and turned their knives and guns on fellow fidels who were cheering them on at inception. Let them decimate themselves. Their imams say one thing in public and preach the complete opposites in the mosques. Well the chicken has come home to roost.
\

What OP described is not slavery.

The employees have the luxury of resignation.

Any smart fellow will know that if he ever works for any organization in Nigeria, the first year salary should be dedicated to starting a side venture because of the unpredictable nature of Nigeria employers. But what do you have? They start living large and when the illusion clears, they are back to square one--no savings, no jobs.
\

Cuntslayer:
My fellow Nairalanders
I come here to seek your candid advice on my situation I used to work in an IT firm on the mainland and God blessed me with another offer on the island. so I tendered my resignation with my former employers and as stated on my terms of contract with them gave a month's notice.
The problem now is that it's 2 moths gone and the people have refused to pay me for the last month of service rendered to them.
I have tried reaching out to all top management of the Company but they have refused and turned a deaf ear to my plea.
So I got n touch with my lawyer friends who have agreed to take up the issue. They say I can make millions out of the case. But my problem is that I don't want the case to distort my career.
Please what do you advise I should do?

/
Magic 8 ball says...."the salary is gone!"

Goodluck collecting.

Roar in public; plead in private.

The attribute of a coward.

SIRTee15:
let's be realistic....
how many guys in that age bracket earn £5800 - £8400 monthly.
a junior doctor in nhs don't even earn that....... except he engages in locum.
and I'm sure most professionals don't earn that monthly as a stat.
the lady is just deluded or ignorant.

/
You look for things that cannot easily be found.

That's why she is searching.

The range is realistic and reasonable IMHO.

Anyone who doesn't make that much should respect himself and stay in his lane. Her choice, her search. After all, Kweku Adoboli was earning £700k/year all inclusive as a Delta One trader for UBS. And there are many like him. It depends on the crowd you roll with. The lady is looking for a break through. Like they say, if wishes were horse...Does she have what it takes to attract such a man? She may still be young. Maybe when she hits 30, she will bring the range down to £20-£30k.

Honestly, I want a private jet. But the last time I drove past Boeing Inc, I respected myself and continued driving. I didn't want to insult myself by going in there to ask them "how much?"
\

/
That's reasonable.

In UK or US, when they talk about salary, they mean per annum.

So £70-100k seems reasonable. That is £5800-£8400/month.

Devaluation at work.

It is a deceptive illusion.

Certificate is just a way to thin out the herd.

Education means to acquire knowledge and not to acquire certificate. Wealth is power and the most formally educated are not the most powerful. Bill Gates and Zuckerberg have no formal college certificates but they acquired knowledge.

Some certificates are not worth the papers they are written on. But the illusion must continue.

Millions of Ph.D holders in Nigeria but Buhari is the president. Do I need to say more?

\

Gaddafithe2nd:
My thought also. Most of the gift from Gates are Greek gift. GMO foods are hazardous to the health and destroys the fertility of soils.

Cancer!!!

There is something about Bill Gates visiting Nigeria that is very unnerving considering that he is a global champion of depopulation via vaccination and immunization. Well, Africans are willing guinea pigs. It didn't start with him. His father was a big proponent of population control. He was the head of the controversial Planned Parenthood back in the days. Educate yourselves. Some see philanthropy, I see trojan horse.

Listen to Bill Gates in his own words below:

sammily:
Please I want people to help me out here. I proposed to my girlfriend of 8 months last 2 week ago and we agreed to visit her home last Sunday. I have always dropped her off around the place but I have never entered the house because I wasn't yet ready to meet the parent because we were just dating then and I wasn't yet sure that she was the one for me. Meanwhile all these while, My girl was only referring to her mum so I subconsciously concluded that the father is late. So last Sunday, I got to their house at Agege pen Cinema and what I saw was very sad. I saw a man looking so haggard in the sitting room and I greeted him, He answered in a very low tone and welcomed me. My girls mum soon came out to the sitting room and also greeted me. We exchanged pleasantries before my girl came out to join us in the discuss. At a point my girls mum brought out money and asked the haggard man to go and buy fuel to power the generator for me so that Heat will not disturb me.

We discussed at length after the man left. To cut the long story short, After the meeting we fixed another date for the second meeting that I was supposed to attend with a family member. When I was about leaving, I gave them some money and some to the man and he fell on his knees thanking me as if he has never owned N1000 in his entire life. When my girl was seeing me off, I asked her who the man was and lo and behold, it was her father. I couldn't believe my ears. it was like a rude joke. it was unbelievable. She must has sensed my confusion before she started telling me stories of how the man maltreated her mum when he had money, how he married another wife who squandered all his money and left them in penury. She said he used to beat her mum and all sorts which I cannot write here.

Since that Sunday till now, I've had no peace of mind, I've been thinking and imagining how a right thinking woman and her daughter can comfortably relegate the man of the house to a mere houseboy. That Sunday, the man was wearing a torn knicker and a white singlet that I won't even use to clean my car. Even my wife to be hushed him down when he came back and wanted to keep the fuel change to himself. Something is wrong somewhere, a woman who could treat her husband like this no matter what he did in the past is scary. I have not even picked her calls since that Sunday evening. I am scared and I don't know what to do next.

/
Running away is not enough.
You must also do Thanksgiving in the church.
What if they had hidden the father until it is too late?
\

SeverusSnape:
I'm doing the same as you.

/
I don't think so.

You are so myopic that you limit your political criticism to Buhari vs GEJ as if life only revolves around those two mediocre leaders while we challenge their policies against best global practices. Then I remembered that nemo dat quod non habet.
\

SeverusSnape:
Same way you respected the former president's age.

/
I challenge habits, policies, actions and or inactions as they affect political decisions.

\

SeverusSnape:
The man (Buhari) looks very lanky and sickly in Army uniform. https://cdn2.jaguda.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/66.jpg

^^ see, GEJ who was not even a military man looks more GALLANT

GEJ was the quintessential 'commander in chief'.

/
Respect his age...

So you will live long.

\

/
The country will be great if Buhari pays close attention to it the same way he wants to appease the marauding herdsmen at all cost.

Cattle over people?

Protect yourselves folks.

Like I always say, if you work for a bank in Nigeria, treat every paycheck as the last one. It is only a matter of time...

ibson99:
With the current economic realities in which majority of states in the country cant pay salaries, perhaps its past time we considered a new a new strategy: put a hardcore capitalist at the helm of affairs. And who better than the countries biggest capitalist! Here are five reasons why Aliko Dangote should be Nigeria’s next president.

1. Efficiency: Some of the country’s biggest challenges include corruption and bureaucracy. For a man who turned a small trading firm he founded in 1977 into a multi-trillion naira conglomerate, managing one of the most bureaucratic nations in the world should be an interesting challenge.

2. Popularity: any Nigerian home or abroad who has access to any form of media be it radio, TV or the internet will most likely know who Aliko Dangote is. With that sort of popularity selling him as a presidential candidate would be easy for any political party.

3. Spotless: in a country where almost every popular person has one corruption scandal or the other, the man has managed to keep a image clean. In fact, the only scandal he almost had was when a certain Miss Sylvia Nduka was rumored to be his girlfriend. An allegation in which both he and the lady in question denied.

4. Business minded: no disrespect to president Buhari, but he needs to upgrade his financial intelligence. To spend more money, you have to first diversify your income stream. The school feeding program, 5000naira for the poor amongst other liabilities without having a long term financial sustainability plan for these programs will end up doing more harm than good.

5. There is no one else: the main opposition party, the PDP is struggling with internal crisis. It doesn’t look like they will be producing a president anytime soon. The ruling APC for now doesn’t seem to have any electable presidential material. A presidential material with popularity and the political muscle to unite the country, and most importantly one with no corruption scandal seems to be lacking in the country right now.

You want to hand over the most powerful position in Nigeria to the richest man in Nigeria? Where are the checks and balances?

Why not cut off your balls and hand over to him too.

Engrobiorah:
On the early days of january this year, I started having backpains. I thought initially that it was due to the excessive weight i lifted. I stopped weight lifting but the pains persisted. With time I started feeling slight pains on the right side of my lower abdomen, where i suspect lies my large intestine(I stand to be corrected). I was scared and decided to visit a medical doctor. I conducted series of tests and scans but nothing was found.
My sister invited me over to Lagos to see a specialist which I did. On getting there I met the doctor and he said I am having ulcers. Yes I have had ulcers in the past but that was in my stomach which i believe is on the left hand side of my abdomen. He said I had too much acid in my intestine and thats what is causing me pains. He gave me an injection to confirm. After a while the pains stopped entirely.
As I got back to Enugu, my ulcers that have never truly shown before has started showing signs now. Anytime i eat I feel the pains in my stomach these days. I cant eat without water. I eat one spoon, I sip water to reduce the pains. But thats not really the big problem, my fears is the right side of my lower abdomen. I hardly sleep, the pains comes and goes. Its not steady. 4days ago I started feeling slight pains on the whole of that my right leg.
I am confused, I am scared, I dont know what this is.

mods please help me

/
You saw a specialist in Lagos. What is his/her specialty?

I will advise that you go to UNTH. They may be able to refer you accordingly.

The problem in Nigeria is that if a nephrologist resolves a kidney problem, most people will go to him/her for everything (cardiothoracic, pulmonary, etc issues ) outside his specialty.

Habu Sabo, one of the troops fighting Boko Haram in the North East, took to his Facebook page to say how proud he is to be a Nigerian soldier.

I hope others will learn.

People are trying to sleep and someone shows up as early as 5am to force her belief/religion down people's throat using a megaphone. People decide to turn themselves into irritants just like the knuckleheads that will not stop preaching or hawking medications in buses. Worst of all, the Islamic call to prayers when folks are in their third R.E.Ms. Redemption is not by force.

There should be laws against noise pollution in Nigeria.
