HOW TO SURVIVE IN NIGERIA

1. Have money

6. Don't fall in love, you go cry

8. Avoid girls with big bress, dem go show you shege.
9. Take number 1-5 seriously, 6,7 & 8 are for cruise.

This Country is hard, make we no die of depression.

We are 200 million COWARDS.

No light, no fuel or it's high, bad roads everywhere, ASUU strike, police warning strike, airline warning strike, inflation, injustice, terrorism, nepotism, tribalism, unimaginable corruption in all government offices and we still live like all is well.

SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH ALL OF US...

Last week a Nollywood actress slumped and died in a church in enugu. Earlier this week another Nollywood actress was found dead in a hotelroom in Jos. Just yesterday another Nollywood actor slumped and died after a movie shot.

These 3 deaths in less than one week could be as a result of high blood pressure, cardiac arrest or heart attack.

It could also be underlying health problems. Many people have serious health issues but you won't know unless they tell you.

So my question for guys that like inviting girls to their house or hotel, what if the babe slumps or dies in your house or hotel? How are you going to prove your innocence?

Especially in this dark continent where everyone believes in juju??

May kpekus not lead us into trouble- AMEN

Have you been scammed before? Be it ponzi or pyramid schemes, love scam, lottery scam, visa scam, one chance or any other type of 419 scam.

Please share your scam story and lessons learned so that others will learn as well.

I recently made a short trip to my village, and gave myself the assignment of counting mentally challenged young people in my small village. Guess what, I counted 8, imagine if proper headcount is carried out in the entire community, or maybe the whole of the LGA.

In my opinion the major cause of mental health problems in Nigeria are drug's / substance abuse and depression but when these guys run mad their family members will blame it on enemies and tag it evil projection �. Owu ihe esendiri esendi...

The rate at which young people consume hard drugs these days is so alarming. And if we don't take drastic measures to address this problem I'm afraid we will have millions of mentally challenged young people in Nigeria within the next few years.

What do you guys think we should do? Should we fold our hands and watch all our brothers and sisters run mad? The government has failed us otherwise there would have been massive campaign against drug abuse. Do they even care?

Guys, i ask again, what do we do? Fold our hands and continue to blame enemies and village people or do something? I'm planning to organise a campaign against drug abuse starting from my LGA. Would you like to get involved? In which area do you think you can be of help? Ideas, opinions and suggestions are highly welcomed please �.

I lost my phone yesterday and the person that picked the phone is speaking Hausa or pretending not to understand English. You have to call 500 times b4 he will even answer the phone, and most times he switches it off for several hours, so so annoying...

Anyways my concern is my simcard which is linked to all my banks, BVN, NIN etc is in that phone. Its an iPhone and I'm tracking it but no results yet.

Please if you've been in this situation b4 how did you handle it? What should I do to protect my NIN and BVN?

I've called my banks customer care lines but as usual they will play music for 15 minutes and the line disconnects before you can speak with a customer care agent. Its very frustrating experience.

So is there any short codes to block your bank accounts, NIN , BVN etc?

Someone should help push this to the front page I need urgent help please �

For those of you who belive in Juju, Euro millions lottery price money this weekend is 107 Million British Pounds, that's over 60 Billion Naira. I say make I remind una, especially one of my social media friend whose sugar daddy gave 300k last month and she claim it's bc of her blue eyes abi special package. Sandra oya come and win better money.

To the slowpoke that said white men sins abi curses is different from African curses abeg let him tell us why the families of OBJ and all the Nigerian soldiers that killed millions of armless Biafrans are not suffering?

Your politicians that have been killing innocent people for juju rituals are all balling till date with their families and you are here telling us how you are poor and ignorant bc of the sins of your fore fathers? Some people are beyond redemption....

bobestman:
And if you are told why the Pinks are not affected by curses now, you will call me a Racist. The truth is that you are the original people of the book and your Bible stories all happened in Africa. This is already clear for those who have eyes to see. That's why the curses affect you

The curses of Deutronomy 28 is still on hold on Africans. They departed from the LAWS YHWH gave them for foreign religions and ways not cast up

When the Messiah was on earth people suffer for the sins of their fathers (John 9:2). Today many are still suffering from such curses. All religion are Apostate today and many can't seek their Creator for themselves and do what is lawful to be free.

We are Africans and our Ancestors did a lot of evil when they fell from the true way. They can offend someone and the person may enter a covenant with the devil to inflict their generation with curses. You see a family where about 4 children are blind or deaf. There are families that no one can get to 40yrs and many more. So if you say people are not suffering from generational curses in Africa, lay one hand on your head and the other on your eyes and tell your Creator to give you sense and also open your eyes to see clearly.

It's only the Messiah that can free all from these curses at his coming. Some people can do it themselves and their are also righteous men who can do it but the Messiah is the only one that can properly do it when He comes.

Jesus died on the cross of calvary for a purpose so these old lawss no longer apply.

At Job 34:10-12, the Bible says that it is unthinkable for the true God to act wickedly.

Also note what James 1:13 says: "When under trial, let no one say: “I am being tried by God.” For with evil things God cannot be tried, nor does he himself try anyone.

judedwriter:
Generational curses are as real as the back of your head.

The only thing is that the curses of the white man are different from the black man from Africa...

So you are saying that the white man is superior to you?
Son, kindly emancipate yourself from mental slavery.
Africa is poor because of poor leadership and corrupt politicians. That is why most Nigerians are hungry, poor and jobles bc your politicians don't even have sense or ideas on how to grow the economy, they just loot and bc they know that ignorant people like you will blame their uncles and village people for their poverty and joblessness. Get sense will you?

Missyajoke:
What kind of preachers do we have on nairaland nowadays, they say things that are false

This is not about nairaland preachers, this is about fake black African pastors that turn the bible upside down for selfish interest. To these false preachers, every thing bad is bc of generational curse. I don't blame them, I blame those that believe their false teachings

Hitler killed millions of Jews yet none of his generation is poor or suffering. White people killed blacks and used us as slaves yet till date they are smarter, richer and better than us. They don't go to mountains to fast and pray yet they enjoy better life expectancy.

But a pastor convinced you that you are poor, sick, jobless or suffering bc of the sins of your fore fathers? Abeg remind me what sins your forefathers committed that is greater than slavery

#WHYYOUNORGETSENSE

Saturday, May 22 was supposed to be my last day on earth but God said NO, it's not my time to die. Pls read to the end, you will learn one or two things from this...

It was my daughters birthday so I organised a small party and paid someone to get us food, drinks, cake and small chops. Well the lady I contracted to handle this was not feeling too well so she gave the contract to her friend. Unfortunately, her friend laced the brownies with ARIZONA which I understand is a hard drug.

So I ate a lil bit of the brownies around 9 or 10am and that's all I could remember. 1 hour later I got a knock on my head and I passed out.

Thank God I was1 with my friend. Several things could have happened, I could have died from cardiac arrest, brain damage or madness. Or even memory loss. If any of these had happened, I'm sure some people would say it's bc my parents are sinners, or maybe I wanted to do rirual/blood money or maybe I offended my juju, mamy water or whatever. I know people must say something. Davido is a successful artist and his dad a billionaire, yet when davidos friend died few years ago some people said he used his friend for ritual lol.

I say this all the time, the energy poor black people put in finding out why rich people are rich, if they devote the same energy to find out why they are poor maybe they will find solution to their problems.

At least if you nor get money, try get sense.

From what happened to me on May 22, I am certain that most of these people that run mad in Nigeria every now and then is not as a result of rituals, wicked uncles or village people. Its mostly bc of drug abuse.

Just imagine if I was alone on May 22. Say I attended a party alone, ate cake that was laced with weed or some hard drugs. Then 2 hours later the drugs started reacting in my system while I'm driving home?. I'm sure most people would be busy taking videos and pictures of my brokos instead of giving me help bc that's what someone in that condition needs. Why do we still behave like primitive people?

In my case I was in 2 different planets at the same time. I saw many dead people, even people that died when I was in primary school.

I am still healing, still recovering but once I fully recover I will write a book which I will title LACED BROWNIES.
Nairalanders, abeg make una follow me thank God.

This is awesome big bro, where is your farm situated as I'd love to undergo internship.

Operation Feed The Nation !!!

Umuagwo, Imo State. Where are you located?

Videos still won't load.

My videos won't load.
Maybe I have to upload on YouTube first?

Few years ago I ventured into Agriculture for 3 main reasons:

1. To create jobs
2. To create wealth
3. Food security

I must admit that this has been my most challenging venture so far. I know nothing good comes easy but I didn't know farming / Agriculture is this challenging.

My dream is to have one of the biggest and most successful farms in Nigeria. Sounds impossible right?

Well I share similar vision with Reliance Industries founder, Dhirubhai Ambani, who died in 2002 and owns the world’s largest oil refinery with an aggregate capacity of 1.24 million barrels per day. The refinery complex is located at Jamnagar in Gujarat, India.

As a young man working as a petrol station attendant in Yemen in the 1950's, Mr. Ambani dreamed of someday owning his own oil empire, from drilling to refining to marketing. Let me repeat, he was just a filling station attendant but he dreamt of not even having his own filling station but OIL REFINERY. The man get liver sha. Its good to dream big.

Returning to India with $100 in his pocket, Mr. Ambani entered the textile business, then moved into the production of polyester and other chemicals needed for synthetic fabrics, becoming one of India's wealthiest tycoons.

He started the refinery construction in 1996 and commissioned it in 1999 I think.

At IykBethany Farms ( https://iykbethanygroup.com ) we've done the basics. Acquiring lands (almost 400 plots so far), carried out Due Diligence, surverys, research, Market Analysis and registering the company with CAC.

PS: Remember that I Design, Print and Brand. Kindly contact IykBethany Printing Houze for all your printing jobs: www.printinghouze.com/
Please tell your church, pastor, family and friends, we can deliver jobs to any location in Nigeria.

So back to the farm, I carried out some practicals and experiments as well. I've tried to document my journey so far which includes the challenges and mistakes I made, I wouldn't want anyone to make similar mistakes.

The reason I document some of these things is to inspire people, especially the youths.

Fashion and boutique business changed my life for good. I worked with a construction company, saved some money and opened a small boutique. I started buying from Onitsha, then Lagos. The Anambra importers I met in Onitsha and Lagos encouraged me to consider buying goods from Asia, that's how I started international trade.

I documented everything, my challenges, mistakes and experiences which I have used to help many people (male/female) to set up their own boutiques. I do these free of charge.

My documentary (mistakes, experiences and challenges) on international trade encouraged me to write this article On How To Import Goods From Vietnam (Shoes, Clothes, Bags, Fashion Accessories etc).

https://www.nairaland.com/2299535/info-all-those-want-travel

I had to document it on my blog as well:

This is turkey import guide on how to import goods from turkey.

So back to the farm, we've harvested maize, cucumbers and cassava. Plantains and bananas will follow suit in few months time. Next year we will add livestock, Poultry, Fishery etc.

If things work according to plans our delicious and well packaged plantain chips and plantain flour will be in the market by october 2021 and so is our odorless fufu, garri, starch etc.
.
So far it's been very tough and challenging. I even wanted to quit but I'm not quitting because I'm passionate about this

I'm done with PHASE ONE, now moving to PHASE TWO which is to acquire the necessary skills, training and expertise in mechanized farming. I can't be farming with hoes and cutlass in 2020.
My birthday is next month, somebody should use a modern farming machine do birthday for me naaa wink wink.

This phase 2 will take me to 3 countries namely Indonesia, Israel and Vietnam where I will undergo the necessary trainings.

Everything I know today I learn from the internet, especially YouTube and the agric section of Nairaland and few other forums. Even the guy that planted all my bananas and plantains I met him on Nairaland. So Nairaland has been a blessing in disguise.

I am happy to share my experience with anyone who is interested to learn. Also, if you are an expert or you know one or two things about farming/agriculture please feel free to share with me, I'm open to new ideas and suggestions.

I will try to share updates from time to time.

Penis Captivus is rare but it happens. I wrote an extensive article on the topic, please read it

https://iykbethanygistville.com/penis-captivus-captive-penis/

Bulshit..these things are happening bc all of you are superstitious. You hear about something and you start doing without verifying.
If you like eat one trailer of shit, you cannot become rich by eating shit..
If eating shit can make one rich shit will be more expensive than gold and 70% of Nigerian youths will be rich.

BabbanBura:
This shit is grossly embarrassing

Lol have you experienced it before?

Very good development. NDDC have the potential to develop the region especially in road construction.

Last month I suggested how to stop fraud and corruption in NDDC in this article.

https://iykbethanygistville.com/suggestion-on-how-to-stop-fraud-in-nddc/

Since today is Friday let's learn something reasonable instead of all these senseless Freaky Friday posts that liter FB timelines every Friday.

Brokos getting stuck in Kpekus is called
Penis Captivus or captive penis and its natural occurrence. It has nothing to do with juju.

We shouldn't believe every lie our forefathers told us, because they were not as exposed and as educated as this present generation.

In my opinion if there's a charm that could catch cheating wives over 10,000 married women will be caught today.

Penis Captivus (captive penis) is an occurrence during sexual intercourse when a man is unable to withdraw his penis from the vagina

It happens when the muscles in the vagina clamp down on the penis much more firmly than usual, making it impossible for the penis to be withdrawn from the vagina.

This YouTube Video Explains Penis Captivus in Greater Details: PLEASE WATCH IT.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tG1-lnmH89E

How does it happen?

During intercourse, a man’s penis is filled with blood and remains so until he ejaculates. When a woman has an orgasm, her pelvic floor muscles contract rhythmically. When these events occur at the same time, it’s possible for the penis to become “stuck” in the vagina for several seconds.

Eventually, the woman’s contractions stop and blood leaves the man’s penis. No longer erect, the man is able to withdraw and the couple can separate

What to do if it occurs to you

If you or your partner feels penis captivus starting to happen, then both you and your lover need to relax and take the focus off of intercourse and anything sexy. You can think about the high poverty rate, joblessness or corrupt politicians. Take your mind off sex and think about something that might piss you off. This allows blood to leave the penis, so that he can withdraw more easily. And her pelvic floor muscles will also relax, as not to clench the shaft.” Added stress can lead to more muscular tension, which can make the phenomenon last longer.

It is important not to try to force the penis out of the vagina. Doing so can hurt one or both partners. It is also important not to try to open the vagina or pry the penis out manually.

Taking deep breaths may help both partners become or remain calm. Distracting each other or making a joke out of the situation can also relieve the tension and reduce arousal in the genitals.
