I don't know if i believe this story. There must be some kind of public disturbance of peace before the cops come calling. If he said that he was pulled over for driving a fancy car in a predominantly white neighborhood, then i can understand.
Davido is a nobody in US. 0.000000001% of Americans cannot pick him up in a line up. Nigerians think the way the pursue foreign stuff is the way citizens of other countries do. To an American, Davido is "just one singer from Africa". That's how much they care.

If you get up in a flood what do you do?

Carry your car on your head?

CSTR2:
Stop this rubbish. It is embarrasing.
Countries of less than 10 million people are producing fighter jets and maglev trains.
What has the igbo nation of over 30 million people done?
Yes, i know the whole story of how Nigeria is a zoo. Still not an excuse really.

I guess he is saying that one is only as strong as the weakest link.

In order to reduce the level of poverty amongst homes, in my opinion I think a man who has not enough money to buy a house of his own not rent at least a 3 bed room flat and a car to move him and his family around should not get married.

When he gets married in his low credit, the family tends to suffer. The probability that he will get rich is actually 0.5 not up to 1 because Sundry expenses will now become expenses when married. Things he could ignore when single will now be important.

When children arrive, the probability of getting rich falls to an all time low of 0.2. Have you observed that most men have a higher credit score when single? If you have $500 at the end of every week when single if your job/income doesn't change or upgrade when you get married your $500 falls to $200 because you no longer feed yourself but feed a woman and probably a child.

When the child grows older school fees will set in. And other bad debts will be incured .

Don't get me wrong, I ain't saying he will never make it but in the mean time, why bring a child to the world to suffer? Even if it's for 6 years before you make it? Why take a woman from her father's comfy house to hardship in the name of marriage?

I advice ladies never to get married no matter how cool a guy is unless he is proven to be able to cater for your needs and that of your children financially in all ramifications both expenses and sundry expenses.

It doesn't make any sense, what you enjoy when single as a lady why stop enjoying it because your husband has no money or your money now goes to supporting him?

They say women ain't equal to men. Ok let the men be rich and rich enough to take care of their wives 101% before getting married. In fact, studies show most men marry for sex.

/
You fail to understand that successful guys are equally as scared of getting married as broke guys. There is nothing in marriage for men if you live in the western world which is why marriage is incentivized to reel in unsuspecting and gullible guys.

In other words, there is no magic formula in any issues involving marriage. Linda Ikeji and Basketmouth parents were broke. Umar Mutallab's parents are wealthy. Yet the rich kid who had it all, was raised well wanted to blow up an airplane.

I wish marriage were as simple as house and cars.

It is a mockery on intelligence to blame APC.

APC is just an acronym, same as PDP.

Blame the President...Buhari.

Blaming the party creates more loopholes for excuses.

The President is in charge and he must bear the blame.

APC == PDP. Leave party alone and ask for good governance.

Phone as a gift? What is this? High School?

This dude needs to build himself first. He has no business wasting his meagre resources on gadgets.

\

Bobbieydeey:
But wait, who are you to judge how he spends his money? Isit your money??

/
Nobody is judging him. We are telling him to stop playing a f.ool who as noted, " a fo.ol and his money are easily separated" Some folks are waiting for S9.

He should show the phone to his dad and tell him that he bought it for the amount noted.
\

hayordele1:
Shut up jor!.......Go to developed country and see what they use money to do!....Buying of 235k money and posting it on nairaland....Dangote no get time for this now....#EronuNow

/
Lol.

To think that the OP was recently asking for help in marketing his "technical installation" skills tells a lot about him. OP is an unemployed or low-level technician. He got his priorities screwed. A technician who relies on solicitations to get a job has no business buying N235k phone. He wants to look good first and make money later.
Gaming...PS3/4...phones, all end-user items make the OP an immature spendrifth who has no concept of money.

For sure, he has no responsibilities.

deen4real7902:
Got my Samsung S7 edge today at Samsung office at Ikeja City Mall (Alausa shoprite) for 235k, I was the 11th person to buy it, so I was giving a Gear VR and Back cover with it. The Samsung S7 cost 205k.

/
N235k on a phone that is only good for 6 months before a new upgrade comes along?

I hope it has a crack-resistant screen.

You are a mor.on. You got played.

You need to educate yourself about money. Because you can afford it, doesnt mean you should get it. Respect the Indians and Chinese business people. They got it figured out. A black man? Hell No!

Surprisingly, big timers in Nigeria i come across usually don't carry phones this expensive. Only students (especially females) buy these gadgets because that's the stage they are in life.

Arrest doesn't mean anything.
Worst case scenario, he will be fined for disorderly conduct-- a misdemeanor.
Case closed.
\

This is how it will be:

Ibori will come back to a big reception. His people will adore him. But after about 6 months, he will try to re-assert himself and will meet a brick wall because he has no power of incumbency-- no more crumbs for his teaming followers from the state coffers. Since election is far off, the followers will switch loyalty to the highest bidder. The governor will checkmate his influence by castrating him politically. Thereafter, Ibori will be demystified and fade into oblivion.

Ibori today is not the same as Ibori the governor. He has no state funds to buy loyalty. His people are still living in fantasy.

OZAOEKPE:
and the suffering begins






when the criminal was busy spraying money during campaign and 'holy' baba was looking at him, many apc agents(modath, berem, passingshots, uncle gbawe, omenka etc) were busy praising the r*m, now the money don finish osun people are now bearing the heat

/
This is my point. Pray for good leaders. Party loyalty is nonsense since there is no ideological difference among all the Nigeria parties. Salaries do not recognize party affiliation. Will Aregbe miss a breakfast? No. The same goes for those praying for Buhari to fail; your lives will be screwed too. Worst case scenario, Buhari jumps on a plane to go and chill in Dubai while you line up at the fuel station with your generators' fuel tanks under scorching sunlight.

You should be talking to the politician who is sponsoring Imo Rescue Network. This is what happens when one sticks out his neck for a politician--he will be used and dumped.
Oh..and by the way, it is "petition" and not "partition".

joeprince23:
I am typing this with my eyes full of tears,see how an honourable member of ekiti HOA is tortured not minding his age and health status... God will surely punish buhari for appointing a bigot daura man in charge of DSS

/
They don't consider their ages and health when they loot.

Only after being caught that they feign ill.

A Nigerian politician? Guilty as charged. Someone has to be the scapegoat and the gods chose him.

\

obailala:
But why is Nigeria even like this?... Is it that none of our 'big businessmen' can float a massive retail chain like shoprite?... The way we celebrate shoprite, sometimes I find it embarrassing.

/
It is not just Nigeria. It is one of the curses of being blacks. Studies show that money will exchange hands about 26x within a Jewish community before going out. But money stays an average of 6mins in a black's hand before he/she runs out shopping and gives it out to someone from a different race who is always trying to sell him/her some mundane materials.

Nigerians love to shop whether they have money or not -- pursuit of things to use to cover what ails them psychologically.

Your nerve endings are compromised. That's where the pain is coming from. Taking pain pills is not the solution. It will soothe the pain and when the medication wears off, the pain seems to come back. Go back to the dentist or do I say, another dentist. This time don't be cheap and most importantly stay away from bones.

Good job.

Upon all his education, exposure and experiences in life, the Oba succumbed to the scam of some phantom deities who chose an "olosho" for him as a wife. Indeed, the gods must be crazy.
The oba never talk wetin the woman take cook for am. Na only God knows which private part she wash use the water prepare soup for the olodo Oba.

@op,what ever happened to the good old type of roofing? This high rise roof seems risky to me not to mention unnecessarily expensive, what are the main benefits of this type of roof?

/
Nigeria is about what is en vogue.

One can look at any house in Nigeria and tell what era it was built. From zinc, asbestos, round house, aluminium long span to stone-coated roofing tiles; it is all about herd mentality.

Nice condominium

It doesn't matter how long they stay in school. The main issue is: Does Nigeria have the facilities, technical-know-hows, specialists to train the doctors? It is a pipe dream. More like putting a cart before a horse. Take a look at any of the Teaching hospitals and tell us if there could be
any expected positive outcome from training the residents there for a million years.

It is very rare to see close families remain the same after marriages.

Divergent interests surface.

Since when is the IMF boss a celebrity to be revered by Nigerians? Like i said before, I dont like IMF and what they are selling. If you want to deceive people, use their kind. I have always known that NOI is a puppet.

Africans in the West are efficient managers because they have bosses in the higher up breathing down their necks. Just like OBJ stated, NOI needs to be told what to do. Folks blow NOI's trumpet as having worked in the World bank forgetting that she was an employee. She could never take unilateral decision without the imprimatur of her bosses.

I would rather be a Minister of Finance in Nigeria than the Vice President of the World bank.

You think you are a hard man? Not so fast. Until you graduate, finish your project and clearance; death may be knocking at your door.

Be ready for that axe, knife or bullet to the head. Good riddance to rubbish. Don't think you are invicible or invisible. You reap what you sow. Bunch of mo.rons.

It doesn't make sense to berate anyone who thinks that Awka is beautiful. We don't know where he is coming from. Beauty is in the eyes of a beholder. This could be the first time that the OP has stepped out of his village. So pardon his ignorance.

In my opinion, Awka is a glorified village.
