This doesn't make sense!

Which Nigerian girl in her right senses will use her own money to book flight, use her own money to pay for a hotel room and then you come to the hotel room and still agrees to open leg without you reimbursing her of what she spent on flight and hotel booking?

Na juju be that?

I don't believe this one bit!

You want to hire "MONEY SPRAYERS", which person's money will they be spraying? Your own or their own?

If you don't have posh or rich friends, it's only because you're not rich or posh yourself... "Birds of a feather attend each other's wedding together"

zeuss:
I am like that also, rather think of making money or do something that will give me personal joy.

AyamSad:
I'm in my finals and I just found out that I will be carrying over two courses in my extra year . My results just came out.

The saddest thing is that it's even an elective borrowed course from physics. All my mates that borrowed it failed it too. If only I could see the future.
I feel doomed and depressed.
Regret is eating me up!

I could have done a simpler course.
God what led me to physics?

I've been passing all my courses until now. How can I handle this?

Two men were killed. Do you know how much the life of 1 man cost?
Stupid comments like yours is the reason why citizens are now taking the law into their hands against renowned careless Dangote drivers.
Buhari police will side with Dangote, the army will side with Dangote no matter how many innocent lives he crushes with his trucks, and the Mohammed Tanko courts will bend over backwards to accommodate Dangote to the detriment of Innocent Nigerians.
Is Dangote's life more important than the lives of these Nigerians?

*Twitter Ban: Evading the Law of Unintended Consequences with Systems Thinking*
Twitter was trending with multiple terms related to the state of affairs in Nigeria.
Twitter is used more as a listening tool, to keep one's finger on the pulse of things.
One look at the trending topics, and you could have a summary of current affairs for the day.
In multiple Nigerian terms on the trending section, one thought the app was experiencing a glitch, showing him trending topics.
After a few seconds, one can realised what the real situation was. There was no glitch after all.
Here’s the breakdown of what happened.
Whenever something tragic or contentious occurred in Nigeria, the citizens would tweet about it, and the topic would trend - TO NIGERIANS.
This meant that even though the complaints and agitations of the citizens were being posted to the public social media platform, the issues seldom ever registered as the trending topics of other countries.
However, there was a twist here which leads us to the Law of Unintended Consequences.
The Nigerian Government banned twitter and this led the mammoth Nigerian youth population to download VPNs to bypass the ban.
On most VPNs, the United States is the default or preferred location.
And so millions of Nigerians who would normally tweet and register their discontent as the trending topics of Nigeria, were now registering the issues on the trend list of the United States.
Americans woke up today confused by terms such as ‘IPOB’, ‘Buhari’ and ‘Malami’.
If the Nigerian government had not banned Twitter, the displeasure of Nigerians would have been localised.
In the wake of the ban, the displeasure of Nigerians was being broadcast to the centre of the world through VPNs, creating global awareness for a matter that would have otherwise remained local.
Most Nigerian VPN users didn’t plan for this effect. It was just an unintended consequence of using VPNs, albeit a welcome one.
Another unintended consequence here is that Nigerians may have now learned how to ensure that topics of agitation are registered on the trends lists of the United States - by mobilizing Nigerians to tweet via VPNs with the US as their virtual location.
The Law of Unintended Consequences can be avoided by utilizing a thinking tool called Second Order Thinking.
*Second Order* *Thinking* posits that there is more than meets the eye when solving problems, and that by solving one problem, we may inadvertently create another problem.
We must therefore rigorously apply Second Order Thinking and even Third Order Thinking in order to arrive at an Ecological solution.
I’ll explain this using another lesson from history.
Back when the British ruled India, thus faced a problem with a rising population of venomous cobras in Delhi.
To solve this problem, the British colonialists launched a bounty program, offering a cash prize for every cobra that was killed.
All the residents had to do, was to kill a cobra and present its body to the British government and claim the reward.
However, the business-minded Indians devised a plan to ‘optimise’ their rewards - they would breed cobras privately, kill them, present the dead cobras to the British and collect the cash reward.
The British were initially delighted to see that cobras were being killed in large numbers.
On the surface, the bounty programme appeared to be a raving success - 1ST ORDER THINKING.
The British soon found out about the breeding operations and terminated the bounty programme - 2ND ORDER EFFECTS.
This now meant that the Indian snake breeders were left with many snakes that could not be sold, and so they set them all free.
There were now more cobras all over Delhi after the bounty programme than when it was first started - 3RD ORDER EFFECTS.
What does this mean for you?
As with the stories of the Twitter ban and the British bounty programme, we must seek to solve problems by seeing the whole landscape rather than what is readily apparent.
We must consider not only the First Order Effects of our decisions, but also their Second and even Third Order Effects.
This overarching strategy is called SYSTEMS THINKING, and Second Order thinking is just one component of it.
Let’s look at another hypothetical application of this powerful thinking tool.
Say you were the Founder/CEO of a Billion Dollar corporation and one of your founding executives was found to be engaged in fraudulent activity.
What would you do?
Well, a First Order approach to this problem would be to simply fire this individual.
Second Order thinking would examine any potential consequences of dismissing this person.
On further investigation, you may then realize that this person may choose to express their disgruntlement by joining a competing organization and use company secrets to strengthen your opposition.
Of course you could go to court, but your lawyers graduated from Harvard Law and would charge millions of dollars to duel with your adversary over the coming months and years.
Considering the cost of the Second Order effects of a straight dismissal, you may wish to act ignorant of the act of fraud and do something else instead.
Create a small office in a far away country which is inconsequential to overall brand image and profitability.
Puff up his ego by offering him the role of Country Manager or ‘General Manager - Diaspora Relations’.
This fraudster would feel valued and stay on your side, while being tactically stripped of the ability to continually perpetrate fraud.
You solved the First Order problem of fraud, cancelled out the chances of future fraud and potentially saved the company millions of dollars in legal fees.
This strategy is used at the highest levels of power - across politics, organized crime organizations, business and even organized religion.
Read this a couple of times over and make your notes on how this can offer solutions past and future obstacles in your life.

"For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.----Ecclesiastes 7:12

When you want to plan a journey, don't just plan the going and coming, also ensure planning the masceleaneous that may occur during the journey so that you will not eventually be redicule. Likewise, when you want to take a decision. Study both the negative and positive outcome of it before implementing it orelse may latter bomerang. Such is the case of the federal government who allowed their emotion to control their decision, forgotten that emotionalism can eliminate behaviouralism.

Mrdecent:
May we not look back in the next 8 years and say "Buhari was a great President".

IamNumeroUno:
Not everyone will make it in life, no matter how hard they try and that's the unfortunate reality.

Society is in strata, people must exist in all echelons of society. That's why we have the rulers and the ruled, the monarchs and the subjects.

Some people are deliberately stepped down to be able to fit into the category of subjects.

When a king dies, highly ranked member of the kingdom would take the crown, not for himself, no! He would pick the rightful heir to the throne, who probably is less qualified than the man holding the crown. The elder or elder statesman would place the crown on the head of the heir to the throne, step a few feet backwards and bow or bend a knee in total submission and loyalty to someone he had just crowned king.

Don't let people push you become a square peg in a round hole. Life goes way beyond amassing wealth and material things. As long as you are not in debts and can cater to your immediate needs, be happy, always.

People like the Op will always be here to make others lose their self esteem and become depressed. He might be lying in the bed during working hours, while writing this. Don't be fooled.

Nigerian singer, Davido has congratulated his colleagues in the music industry - Wizkid and Burnaboy for winning Grammy Awards in their respective categories, IgbereTV reports.

Shortly after Burna and Wizkid’s win was announced, Davido took to his page to tweet an adaptation of his popular slang, e choke.

He wrote:

Several hours later, he accompanied his initial post with a tweet saying that their wins were a big victory for Nigeria. He also made sure to congratulate them.

He wrote:
