I'm on the verge of disowning my father.
The story is long but I will cut it short.
It all began last year when I was in service, I called my father informing him of going for post graduate studies. He bought the idea and when I came back from service he gave me money to purchase the form and I did and proceeded with the application.
Due to covid 19 restrictions we wrote the entrance exam March this year. So I was offered part time post graduate admission
Bfor I was offered the admission I was working as a sch teacher and the pay was very low and during d holiday I had health issues and I was at home recuperating. During that period there was a misunderstanding between us and a family friend came to settle us, and right in front of the man, his wife and my mother, my father declared his decision to sponsor and fund my post graduate studies. He pledge to take money from his cooperative to fund it along with accommodation. I live a state away from the school. He is a pensioner receiving steady monthly pension of 200k monthly after serving in the military.
So the following month I proceeded with the screening and I started lectures immediately. He gave me 40k which I used for Dept registration, pg screening and collected my degree certificate.
The problem started early October when during the screening period I declined job offers that I applied for so as to focus on the early part of the admission.
The problem started early October when I went to discuss sch fees because exam was mid way approaching but to my dismay he tolde bluntly that he doesn't have hands in funding my Masters anymore, meaning he want to have a uturn. I was confused because he can't jus Allow me start something and abandon me Midway, leaving me hopeless, dejected and frustrated. I called our family friend to come and beg him and to also know how I offended him. He began to open up by saying he hasn't see any usefulness in my education. He narrated history of my education from secondary school, company training, few years of writing jamb, one yr polytechnic before I withdrew to university and how I studied a useless course coming out with lower grade. I asked if he didn't know all this before he agreed to sponsor but he couldn't answer so we begged him even kneeling down and he succumbed to the pressure and he promised to see what he would do.
The following day I met him to discuss about fees and accommodation, he didn't say much then on Sunday he left home and went out and came back sweating, he said he went to a church his friend invited him to meet a prophet and he came with a written prophecy report. The report highlighted every one of us in the family but I focus on my own which reported that my father should not spend money on me until he do some certain things. My intuition told me that the man forged it jus to evade his responsibility. I went to meet the man that he says took him to the church and the man denied that he never took him to any church.
At this period I was not my self because we kept on calling people to come beg him even calling his relatives but he kept on giving excuses and always on the defensive side. He called me failure, lazy levelled lots of allegation on me and manipulated his way when I reported him to people and make them to be against me
Reality later Dawn on me that this man want to ruin my education. The worst thing is that I have already started even as far as attending lectures, assigned to a project supervisor and even loosing a job offer, and he's about to ruin my plans of even working because the place I currently live with him is very remote and far from City center.
Currently I'm stranded going to two months now, he hasn't giving me any money, I borrowed money to be attending lectures and getting school expenses
So now I'm about to disown him, I would make life miserable for him. He must surely pay for the frustration and depression he has put me through.
Pls I need your contribution before I forget what's on my mind
Mods help me push this to front page

You've not told us what you've been doing that made the poor man have a change of mind as per sponsoring your education.


It's possible you've not been useful to him except going to him and be demanding for money in a rude manner

Commentor:
People loved Ekwueme.

The younger generation had no hate for Igbos until Nnamdi Kanu started his broadcast.

Many people even thought he was a joker until they realised how much of the Okada riders, artisans, shop attendants had drank his Kool-Aid.

Worse was how the elite refused to muffle his voice but tacitly gave him a megaphone to continue with his hate speech.

Anyway, there's a price to pay for one's actions.

Peter Obi actually started the madness when he referred to AC ( Action Congress) as an Amala and ewedu party . He also turned around to ethnicized the relocation of some destitutes from Lagos to Anambra .


Though we've always been throwing gbasgbos between the east and the west but Peter Obi singlehandedly institutionalized the ethnic tension

CaptainZubi:
If na another nairalander, una go post am? Very sentimental mods.

Urbanchampion:
You just saw nonsense, Makinde is not Arapa's godfather, in fact, Arapaja is "bigger than" Makinde in Oyo politics.
So comparing their politics to that of Edo shows that you're completely ignorant of their political journeys

You're a novice.


Who is the bigger personality between Oshiomole and Obaseki ? Did you know since when Arapaja has been vying for the governor's seat and his eyes are still on that seat . Arapaja is more PDP than makinde and that's where wahala will start from

Penguin2:
Thanks for the clarification.

At least it clarifies the fact that it might be because they don’t want her to replace Tanko.

Why will she be thinking of replacing someone that's still alive and well ? The way some of you think sef dey somehow

EgunMogaji2:
I know the score. Then halfway through the build the contractor runs away and owner starts asking “elders” to get involved.

joshjc:

Benin is far

That guy is eyeing the governor's seat . This is just an excuse to appear like a saint

QSFemi:
400 to 800 depending on your location.

topsy23:
I don't think there is much difference

Thanks boss

I couldn't get Lafarge cement for my build plastering and I have been hearing lots of people complaining about dangote cement for plastering job.

Is there really any difference between the two cements especially as it concern plastering job?

dannyjesutofunmi:
Adesina is a sellout. This guy can defend the devil if the price is right.

You will do worse if you're in his position . His job is to defend the government and exactly what he's doing .

Good morning my people ,


I logged in to Facebook and discovered I was banned from posting and commenting.

Is there any way I can get to know the exact post that earned me the ban ? Because I have never been troublesome on Facebook and I will like to know what really happened

Is this still available?

No price no contact

Good evening all, I have been a guest of this forum for some years now, I
decided to register after reading a story shared yesterday by NPTJ to also share
mine and asked for advice as i am really confused right now.
Although my own case is different as i am legally married.
My husband and I have been married for five years now with two wonderful
kids.
Aside the reason for this thread, He's a very good husband and father to our
kids.
The issue is , he doesn't want me to go to the village with the children that
automatically means I can't go as I'm still breastfeeding our second child , I
cannot leave him and travel as he's not even up to one year.
My husband and my parents stays in different states. We went to the village
last year July and there's no plan of going this year, whenever I raise discussion about the issue he
simply replied that we'll go when there's a need for us to go.
I hardly go for any function in the village except it directly involves my parents.
This has brought a lot of issues between my nuclear and my extended families.
It wasn't like this when we married newly, we do visits them then and even go
during Christmas holidays but all that changed when we had our first child, he
feels we can't take the child to the village so that "village people" will not
attack him.
We've quarrelled about this severally yet nothing changes, I am tired of arguing
about this .
Please married folks, am I suppose to abandoned my extended family just
because I am married? Please I need matured advice before I do something
that I will regret.
Is my husband right on this ? has anyone been in my position, please help me.
He goes to his village whenever he has any issue to sort out but I cannot

His reasons may actually not be because he think your village people will attack his babies spiritually or anything like that.


He may be considering the stress of those long journeys on your little kids . Like in my case now , my parents and in-laws are in Lagos and I stay in Ogun state with transport fair less than 1k to them but we have not been to Lagos State this year and we actually supposed to be at a family gathering in Lagos tomorrow but we decided to shelve that trip because of the bad road , mad traffic and it's effect on our body and our little children (The last one is less than 3 months old).


The expenses someone incur when you travel to the village may even be another reason why your is trying to prevent frequent visits to the village unless the expenses will be solely from your pocket.

Iamvetlander:
I was strolling outside my street to go get a bag of water (5:32) when two military personnel approached me and my friend, (a girl) they wrong said I am part the people that use to come and destroy military property.

Before I knew it this men started beating me in front of my guest, they made me feel less a Man. I was beaten blue black my fellow nairalanders. As if that was not enough they told me to call my people and told them that I have been arrested by the Nigerian Army (all of that to make my poor mom scared so she will send money) To crown it up they made me transfer #10,000 from my bank account to one of the civilian boy working with them. ( My bank statement is a prove cause they made me delete my alerts)

While they were parading me on the street, nobody came close to ask what Happened, ( I understand they were also scared too) they picked another guy randomly accused him the same way they accused me. They collected #19,500 from to that same account.

Please Nairalanders I need your help so that this men will not go scott free. Below are pictures of me after I was released around 10:57pm

Post this on Twitter and tag as much celebrities , activists and military official handles

Good afternoon Sabi Mamas in the building.


My 10weeks old boy has been showing signs of catarrh/ blocked nose especially at night but we never see the catarrh for once . We took him to the hospital and the doctor recommended Vit.C but the situation remain the same.


He's been behaving fine except for the sound from his nose

See how that patrol van beat a hasty retreat as some armed men are seen chasing after it.

RockOfAgesAlumi:
Yes you can install the window before plastering because the windows suppose to be ramp with nylon in other to prevent the window from being stain
Thanks

Thank you Sir

mountmoriah:
This is a professional advice to u sir, when the plastering is going on make sure yours windows and wooden frames are available on site before the plasterers leave the site including your front entrance security door into your family lounge and kitchen exit door is available, the plasterers have no choice than to fix, dress and make this windows and doors frames stand to beautify their work, but if fail to provide it for them, they will do their job and leave your site, but when those windows and frames doors are ready the plasterers may not have your time again because they will have been engage or have nothing on them to live on,when u called them back to site to fix these windows and doors frames they will charge u extra cost for your inconvenience to them at that point.

Take this points I gave u to the bank u will get value for it and thank me later.

God bless u in this journey

Thank you so much for this Sir . I will do as advised

Don't try it unless you're ready to become an international Ashewo.


Your friend will turn you into a sex slave

Good evening bosses in the building .


Am I supposed to install the aluminum windows before plastering my little build or I can install the windows after plastering.


I'm still undecided between sliding Windows and casement windows till now.

hormodupsy:
I will surely give this a try, �

Don't try this with my girl because she be asking you questions all through ni.


She will be like : Daddy, is this ya head ? Is your leg fine etc

EgunMogaji2:
Yes it is. Instead of buying all those individual stabilisers for N30K or so for each device. I have three right now. One for my office, one for kitchen and one for my entertainment centre. I have to ON get to pump water or use AC.

I've decided on this one and I think it will serve my purposes. It has the low voltage capability 80volts., you should check yours too. Additionally it also conditions the line for over voltage and spikes.

Thanks boss

Octopusssy:
Since when did the Polytechnic become 'defunct'?

I wonder how a school still operating turned to a defunct higher Institution too

EgunMogaji2:
Question for the electrical gurus. I have NEPA light that’s adequately rationed in my area. The issue I have is low voltage, I get served around 80 to 110 volts.

Will the attached solve this situation? Any direct experience on this specific device?

Thanks.

I just got to know I may be facing the same problem when I move into my crib next year by God's grace.

They said the current is too low and as usual I will appreciate if you can educate me on this Sir.

Is that a central stabilizer meant for the whole building?
