Someone who said anyone who does not agree with APC's policies should go back to Anambra, even when the person isn't residing in Lagos, is accusing another person of ethnic bigotry?

Pot, black and kettle. Interesting stuff!

That girl was always forming intellectual here but IMO she fell off so bad.

I can understand that people support Tinubu because of his tribe, I mean it's bad but you'll know it's fueled by hate, but supporting Tinubu because "you built a career in a Lagos Tinubu built" is just beyond ridiculous.

Lot of these guys are keyboardo-lectuals but with confidence and good storytelling skills.

It's really ridiculous.

Based on past data, Atiku has a high chance of becoming Nigeria's president than Obi.

He'll probably win one day.

For context, Buhari has been contesting since I was in primary school. The dude won when I gained admission.

Her getting you your own transcript alone shows you are lazy.

You can get your student transcript by yourself for less than 5k.

Baba, you are the most important person in your life, no one, not even your parents can love you more than you love yourself.

Their children dey go Yale but you no fit afford Unilag.

One thing I love about traveling is this culture shock, it gives me a good feeling. Also makes me appreciate the cultural part of my root.

The .env file exists with correct database credentials. The database was correctly created and seeded.

Screenshot your error logs here. Both on the browser console and laravel.log.

Did you forget to yarn install because I'm seeing you didn't include the step here.

It`s not about beliefs. It`s about facts. Math is not a belief. It`s pure logic. It`s you who wants to believe fairy tales.

Let me break it down for you elementary level style.

Let`s say 10 daughters and 10 sons are born in a village.

1 son marries 4 wives
Second son marries 3 wives
Third son marries 3 wives

10 daughters are married but only three sons. What will the other seven do?

Simple logic. If you don`t understand that, you need to go back to school.

You are right.

Those wives will either remain barren for life or will only produce male children.

It's your truth. I believe you.

Hathor5:
A man in a polygamous marriage is more likely to have daughters than sons?

Where did you read that from me.

I said more daughters are produced, I never compared it to sons production.

If you knew your basic biology, you'd know more sons are also produced. I didn't have to mention that.

Anyway, if men not having wife to marry, an hypothesis which is clearly disproved by the northern Nigeria, is what you choose to believe. That's good for you. It's your truth. You can believe it.

Hathor5:
Polygamy produces more female children?

I didn`t know polygamy has an influence on the chromosome distribution.

Where did they teach you biology?

The one that laughs last ...

That's how basic biology works. Make your research.

I think the problem you are facing is that you are trying to install directly, I presume you are on a mac.

Try to install Laragon or Herd, then from there run your app.

I know nothing about Herd but if you would be using Laragon, you'd have to move your app into the /www folder, cd into it and install the node and composer packages.

Then you run your php artisan serve and npm run dev or prod to serve both back and front-end.

Screenshot your composer.Json and package.json file, let's see.

On a second look, I think you need to create a database in MySQL, the database name and password.

Then put those details in your .env file.

Then run your app again.

Hathor5:
No, men who have multiple wives make the pool of available women shrink for you guys so the number of available men will be higher than that of women.

I'm trying not to laugh here.

Look at northern Nigeria for instance, they practice polygamy, how hard do you think it is to marry there for any guy?

Even beggars have multiple wives over there.

In polygamy, more female children are produced leading to more wives.

Kids of 20 yrs have wives in the north.

Don`t worry about women securing husbands. In a polygamous society, it`s you men who will have difficulties. Simple math.

Men who will have multiple wives will be the same that struggles to find a wife?

Gerrard59:
OK. Thanks for your reply. I want to think he went the American route since he has moved his wealth to the US. $800K is chewgum money to Alhaji.

La ilaha!

Gerrard59:
Then it has to be your environment because when I was looking into the GRE and the US, I came across Yorubas and equally Igbos. Both ethnic groups are the ones pushing beyond the frontiers in Nigeria. So, when I see/read the in-fighting, it tells me that the country has a long way to go.

Bro, there is a popular thing on Twitter that usually goes like this:

Person A: An average Nigerian doesn't have upto N500k in their account.

Person B: I know one person or a group of people that earns N2m monthly.

This is what is happening here.

My point is, we could be doing greater things with our lives if we are not thinking too much about marriage early in life.

Gerrard59:
I would not say it is about ethnicities. However, it looks like such because in certain countries, especially non-English speaking, you find more Igbos than Yorubas. The church where I referenced the Singaporean woman had two Nigerians prior to my attendance. Both were Yorubas - Kwara and Ekiti. The Kwaran dude has been here for eight years working for a notable tech firm and was recently posted to the Tokyo office. One Japanese, him no sabi. But he earns very well. The Ekiti man is an associate professor and has two children.

The Nigerian pastor I had a meeting with is from Osun and has been here for more than a decade. His wife is Igbo and their children speak fluent Japanese. Two new Nigerians even joined the church recently. They are MEXT scholars - both Yorubas. Also, I have seen Yoruba names on Facebook and LinkedIn who are at great places. But by sheer numbers, it is disproportionately Igbos. I was told the Igbo Union in the Tokyo area is so large, they had to divide it by states and the Nigerian Union in Japan itself is 90% Igbo.

Thank you.

But based off my personal experience here, I'm not impressed by my people at all.

You could be a low life but once you have a family of your own, you are successful to everyone. It's like the highest level of success people can think of.

I'm sorry for bringing tribe to this place but it hurts when people I relate with on a daily don't even believe life could offer more if they put in their A game. They'll rather bring this A game to relationship or marriage.

Olumighty123:
Despites, yoruba's are the most ambitious and successful tribe in nigeria, the stats dey there for you to see. I won't bother to write you back after this.

I'm talking about those in my immediate environment. And it's like this from any Yoruba sample group.

They are so complacent and unambitious.

All they know is marriage.
You should have just ignored my first post because I know what I am saying and I'm Yoruba.

I had to express my displeasure in church when the church president was all talking about relationship and marriage.
We are having our first talk as a group, and it's about marriage. Not finance or career.

My guy from uni was talking to me few weeks ago and it was all about marriage too.
There so many examples of these, they hardly discuss career or anything. I get career charge online than l can ever get offline.

If we continue this way ehn, we will become the poorer than the north in Nigeria.

Olumighty123:
You well at all? I doubt 😕 🤔

Baba. I said what I said.

You would think that they give prize to first to marry with the way my Yoruba people are rushing to marry.

Will you guys die if you have a little ambition outside of marriage?

All these are stories for another day sha.

See how small small igbo boys dey think, see ambitions. And my yoruba boys here no dey think pass how to put woman for house.

Gerrard59:
Interesting responses from most respondents.

In summary, life is hard, especially in poorer countries.

As I stated here:



To add: try to enjoy life as a single man before becoming married, because na so so responsibilities full inside marriage.

Let me add:

Find hobbies you like, can enjoy for life and that can make you social for life.

I'd personally recommend watching football and making music.

These little things add meaning to life and stops you from becoming a lonely and grumpy old person.

2Radii:
when u finally build ur own house, let every Tom and dick be washing their clothes and be flushing the water into the pit

I find it funny how how some of you humble brag about being a landlord.

In my quarters, almost everyone has their own house.

Water is meant to be flushed down the pit.

You people should stop lying joor.

After betting, woman, alcohol, lying and carbonated drinks.

Na this addiction worse pass.

tensazangetsu20:
I used to think I was bad at languages but I did learn Spanish and currently using it. I can't learn any African language when it wont improve my life in anyway.

Baba, you get any wisdom wey you fit drop for this language thing?

Jaycobbs:
Just chill fess. Can't put all the blame on the guy.

If it's not something they usually say in their relationship, it's going to sound suspicious coming out of the blue.

And "I love you too" is not the only response that can come out of it. Yes, a smart guy would use it to tease her. I might respond with, "Of course, you love me. I'm a spec", or something along those lines

It doesn't mean that I don't love her. In fact if I'm married to you, you can damn well be sure that I do love you, else you won't be living in my house, under my roof, bearing my name, eating my food, and getting pleasured on a steady.

Besides, 10K is too small to get pissed at your husband. Are they that broke? Like, seriously. I'll wire her the 10K and tell her to get the heck off my phone and allow me concentrate on my work.

If and when I'm ready to declare my love to my wife in both words and in deed, it wouldn't be because some cheesy radio station coerced me to.

Cheers.

✌️

Na why some women dey cheat be this

Namaster:
It's the effrontery for me.

Someone interrupted my day because of #10K and atill had the nerve to get angry because I refused to play along with her DIMWITTED social media stunt.

Best be gone when I get home!

That's the kind of woman that lets an "influencer" dictate how she lives her life. A woman who has given her brain unlimited VACATION.

Irritates me.

All Africans do in marriage is bills and sex.

You people can not have fun to save your life.

There's a joy that comes with winning, oyinbo are always dancing when they win $10 in street challenge.

Your can not say I Love you too but you can have sex with her everyday.

African married people ehn.
