Hey guys... After learning programming at least to a respectable level I'm really looking to try my hand solving real life problems. I'm currently looking for an internship position which would allow me work from home(i am currently still a student) money is not an issue I would be totally available to work for free if the experience and exposure is available. I am competent in python , data science, R, ruby, C++ and front end development (I'm currently learning back-end at the moment) please any offer would be most welcome. |
CHAPTER 1 When in the course of human events, certain people of a peculiar sect whose innate characteristics lead them to search through the pages of papers whose titles usually follow the format of “History of __”, they are sometimes to privileged to read tales of a certain club of men who though simple in their thinking where able to leave deep footmarks in the sands of their nation turning it away from the wide path of destruction to the narrow path of salvation. I have in my little as a member of the aforementioned peculiar sect been able to open the pages of books like “History of America” and “History of South Africa” and read of such men like Abraham Lincoln and Nelson Mandela, I hope to be a member of this club someday, but for now I content myself with having the honour of writing about a man whose main aim in life was to be a member of this prestigious club. Olufela “John” Oladejo was not an ordinary man, this integral fact was not due to the fact that was intelligent, although various people myself included had brought it to his knowledge that he was by far one of the most intelligent person they had met, he was however known to swiftly dismiss such remarks, this dismissal was not due to any iota of humility on his part, in-fact one of his greatest faults (a cause of many of our quarrels) was that John was a proud person. Rather this was as a result of the meagre success he had in his academic pursuits as a youth, hence his favourite quote at times like this was “how can a man be called intelligent when there is no sign of it”. This I could attest to as one of his oldest friends, we had known each other since our time in primary school, his results where in a simple sentence “nothing to write home about” such that even after a “great” session in school John’s result where average and on a “normal” session where most times found to be in the bottom pile of the results in his grade. Now that I look back at it; this failure wasn’t due to the fact that john wasn’t intelligent, or lazy like many people postulated. This I believe was due to the fact that he was greatly disinterested in his academic pursuits, I can’t recount the number of times he escaped from the boarding school which we both went to for days missing a lot of lectures and sometimes tests a secret place (which he has till date refused to tell me in spite of my various pleadings at that time and even now) given this disinterest it is a great testament to his intelligence that he was able to remain in school even continuing into higher levels. |
This would be my first nairaland story, in reality this would be my first story ever. It would be nice to note though that while a story I see this more like a collection of my thoughts on a lot of issues. For this reason I would love to hear readers input as regards issues raised up. Have a nice read... |
its at times like this that I begin to understand why Jesus said that wide is the way that leads to destruction and narrow is the way that leads to heaven. the Bible has said something and we come to interpret it in our words that to me is funny. much more important I believe is that we should as for grace so as to receive help in our times of need. there is enough sufficient grace to allow a man go through any problem without compromise. it seems though that we Christians(myself included) would rather compromise than tap into this heavenly resource ahh I wonder why. as to the issue of marriage. if the need for a thing is not known the abuse is inevitable. the Bible related human marriage as an example of the narrative between Christ and the church wherein it claims that Christ is the bridegroom and we the bride. I now ask how many times have we been unfaithful how many times have we gone longing after other Gods I know how many times I have, I know how many times I have divorced Christ and said this Christian life we are done no more!!! but does Christ ever divorce me has he ever given up on me no!! has he ever said that because I did a seen so terrible Taht he is leaving me and going to find a new and better person no he stays there always interceding always begging us to come back home. if we who are to be emulator of Christ cannot follow in this example then I believe that we have a long way to go. if Christ had compromised and said ahh this one is to sinful let me just divorce him I wonder where some of us would have been. I can't answer for others but I know that for myself I would have been lost. marriage just like our walk with Christ is till death. that is why we say those famous lines before God and men "till death do us part". back to the sovereignty of God, I find it funny how we believed who believe that God can miraculously pit money into our pocket cannot restore our marriages. I know for one that the God that raised up Lazarus from the dead is more than able to raise up my marriage from the dead. I know that the God that healed that lady with the issue of blood is more than able to heal my marital problems no matter how long they have been. that is the God I serve and I know that he is more than able to keep me in marriage till I die. finally to my future wife... our first son name would be called junior |
seunlayi:egbon keep quiet the only reason why someone would be able to buy a vote is because there is someone willing to sell theirs the people of ekiti are to blame for whatever befalls them after this election APC OR PDP if u don't wish to sell your vote then nobody can buy it from you credit though to fayose who gave his people so much hunger that fayemi could play on it |
come ooo Sha me I thought Muslims where not allowed to watch worldly videos in the first place, but our head of muric is busy scrutinizing a whole 3min video, that I believe is Haram. that said the way this muric man talks ehhh one would believe that all Muslims girls don't dance shaku shaku. for here u need to see all these girls dancing u will fear. no be only hijab infact he can quote Quran for all I care |
rifasenate11:I doubt it the fact that the price of something goes up happens to be a major reason why codeine will not be abused besides one of the reason codeine is very popular is because it is cheap and highly accessible remove that and u have gone a long way to stop its abuse |
while I agree with wine on this one I think it is also important to note that u cannot fight for good governance on an empty stomach. most of the people in the NLC are bring owed salary and thats regardless of the fact that the 18,000 minimum wage is not near enough to take care of themselves and you want them to leave that and come and be fighting inec I think we must agree that NLC first duty is to its members and their wellbeing after such before they can start going out to fight for others. |
what kind of a disgrace is this. for me I would take a governor who does not do anything to improve his state but pays salary. I prefer it how can a man be starving people and be coming to claim saint online to me this is worse than looting, families will not eat children will not be able to go to school and am sure the day his federal allocation reduces u will see him jumping up and down raining curses here and there. |
thunder fire everybody that came here to rejoice at people death, haba don't u people even have one ounce of sympathy in your body. Muslim or Christian death is death. its because of people that I am ashamed to be a Nigerian cannot ever imagine how God put me in the same country with such people. spits |
op I must disagree with you, is it today that mean will start cheating(not that I support it) I believe one of the constants in human life is error. So yes davido made some mistakes cheated a little , who knows maybe he is back to his senses or is OP saying that the minute your boyfriend cheats on you you should dump him, I have situations where women went through worse and in the end got back their husband's and are happy now. I believe the morale is simply this when u are with someone do your best so that even if things don't work out well, the person will always know he lost more than he gained and may come back. |
I still believe in a few days from now we will know the whole truth on this issue as I believe everything is not out in the open yet. that said I find it disgraceful that a whole senator of the country whose job it is to make laws which we the commoners are suppose to follow is the one blatantly trying to disregard those laws. police called you for questioning u refused to go there I don't care if u are innocent or not u cannot claim to be a creator of a law and then jump d other day to disregard the law. besides unlike all those unfortunate Nigerians he has money, and we all know what money can do in this country, for him to jump out of the car I just wonder was he expecting to return to the senate after such heroics or did he plan to run out of the country. well the way things are going he may jot even be a senator next month. |
godliman:is it your life abegii leave the girl alone its not by force to be the person your parents want you to be. you have to be true to yourself and that's all. trust me should she win this money u will see how the parents u are defending will be ranting about how proud they are of their daughter |
a lot of these people here coming to defend T-boss definitely know nothing, most of u are not married have not even had d chance to know what it means to raise a child and u are here blabbing nonsense. I have a classmate whose parents don't even know he is in school they just sent him from village to city and that's all, so when I see someone who goes out of his way to make sure his children have some of the basic necessities of life I have learned to be grateful because its only when u see others own that u will really thank God for where u are. anyway children of nowadays u will come online using phones that ur parents bought for u , in your parents house , speaking English that your parents paid for u to learn and come online and blab nonsense. I am not saying Tboss father is right in any regard am just saying that if she is not grateful for all he has done for her to at least not abuse him on social media then seriously I pity the man she will marry coz me this one comes near any member of my family I'll rather die |
where are our nairaland feminist. I expect them to show up here ooo since men and women are equal then men should not be the once that have to shoulder the whole blame of taking care of a family. that being said I am a string believer that a woman should be able to stand on her own regardless of her husband in such a case having to depend on your husband for ur living even after the marriage is over would not be needed. |
ollah2:God is not a God that is controlled by what we choose. The truth is this simple no creation can be greater than the creator its a honest truth. that being said I would agree that there are some questions that I cannot answer like the one above but definitely this i can say I am yet too see the person that has put his faith in Christ and has lived to regret it and that is my basis for Christianity that come rain come sunshine whether in church or in a book haram camp my life is only and can only be for Christ and nothing not persecution not money not women not power not even you can separate me from the love of Christ who though he was without sin died so that I could be free from sin. |
ollah2:read Hebrew 6 thank me later |
ollah2:yes and I see where u are going here so before you go there I would love you to realize that peter died in the cross for not denouncing christ. |
ollah2:u are very funny bro. I'll ask a simple question would u rather enjoy here or suffer in hell. there was a very funny story told to me once a bus was hijacked by extremists and then every one in the bus was told to come down and then the Christians where asked to deny Christ those that did(the intelligent Christians) where kills those that stood their ground where let free. please do u believe those that denied Christ would have made heaven. |
paxonel:firstly I would like to note that the minuter there is something like intelligent Christianity that is the same time I would stop being a Christian. Christianity is not about being intelligent if it was so don't u think Christ could have used intelligence to escape the people that wanted to kill him rather than die on the cross the truth is that there is no intelligence in Christianity if not we would not have had martyrs. the girl did a very brave thing and if u have not been inspired by her then I have I'll leave it like that. |
nairavsdollars:. if u know the number of songs released in Nigeria per week u won't be talking like this. truth is they can only censor what they see and if they don't see them then that's another thing coz there are a lot of upcoming artist who blab all this stuff and more and yet their videos don't reach anybody. u can't expect NBC to be disturbed with all those people. |
daewoorazer:my brother u can't trust girls anymore oooo |
jeez what is this. I am an advocate that should anything good come out of our country then we must start a total overhaul and retraining of our police men. they totally lack dignity and do not help the situation at all. |
Blizzy9ja:no be only bounce back, they will also bounce front |
op while I have nothing against your line of reasoning I have. if there is one thing I have learnt in Christian living it's is this. therefore judge nothing before the time,until the lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God. 1 Corinthians 4:5 dear sir I beg you please leave the judging to God. who are you to come up and say a man is not of God are you God, have you met God and God told u specially that these men do not belong to him even if u had keep quiet, I would rather that in realization of these instead of claiming Christian like the Pharisee and coming to nairaland to bash people who are running their own race u would have done the wise thing and knelt down in private to pray for the souls of this men. to say the truth it is not this pastors that scare me it is people like you who are no better than the brood of vipers called Pharisees that come here to show other peoples as devils while only God knows what you do in secret. I beg u for your own sake please go and cry for your life because if I was to judge you then u are going to hell with this your we are better than them attitude. |
Rather than abuse u I'll tell h a secret Robert Kiyosaki the writer of rich dad poor dad didn't become a millionaire until he was over 35. funny story though his wife was married to him then. all I'll say to u is keep up this mentality and u will end up being used for yahoo+ |
I think I stand with the don on this one as far as there was nobody in the cinema then they where not wrong |
its funny to think that I would advocate for divorce here but that I believe is the best option. besides when God gave his condition he named marital infidelity of which the woman claims the husband has been chief culprit in doing if not for anything that removes any spiritual side from the argument. I honestly believe that this is one of those women who leave of men and have no money of their own which is why she doesn't want to divorce coz she would go around crying about how to take care of her kids. my advice would be simply for her to start something or get a job become financially stable and file for a divorce I don't know any court that would give the children to the husband after his numerous affairs if not for anything rather than financial stability. so please let her leave this marriage now coz I can say first hand that its not easy as a child growing and seeing ur parents in an unhappy marriage it spoils you emotionally. |
my dear if I was you I would be calling her day and night pleading with her to end the marriage. I have never seen family where the mother and father went to suffer with the daughter in her matrimonial home never. please let her know that there are some crosses that u must not bear being with an unfaithful man is one of them doesn't help any lady at all. so please beg her to stop the marriage I tell u as a fact its better to be single than to lack piece of mind. |
Liliyann:word my sister |
