Anytime I come to this thread and see anything about Otem, it just makes me laugh.

I don't know why I find it funny.

Nice thread.

Can anyone share rough estimate in % difference for houses built with cement compared to those built with mud?

I don't have experience in civil engineering. In my naïvety, I always thought mud houses were not just solid or durable enough.

Nawa. Stray bullet done touch Daniel and Egbeda. 😀😀😀

😂😂

This thread be giving the book of Leviticus vibes

Must be how the Israelites felt when those laws were being read out to them all those years ago

ibechris:


U can only be what u have visioned and worked for

Not entirely true. Some people have vision, work hard and smart but their visions just didn't materialize because of external factors such as environment, exposure and money.

And for money, it's easier to be wealthy if you're born into wealth than if you're born in poverty.

Jowizaza or DJ Cuppy has a higher chance of maintaining wealth than Daniel whose family lives in a rented 3 bed apartment in Egbeda.

That's just life. If the rich cry, the poor cry harder. Like someone said, na just time & chance.

Watch that video again, this time with an open mind and notice the nuance.

I'll give you the benefit of doubt that you don't have an agenda. Now watch that video again and tell me if you believe that man is classifying all yorubas as rascals.

I skipped a lot of literature in English classes.

Please explain the nuance in the statement

"Yorubas are political rascals and we are going to handle them..."

Or are you talking about the previous statement that the Igbos are not at war with Yorubas and they are political rascals and they'll be handled?

Looks like I'm missing something. Really want to learn what this nuance you're mentioning is about, in this case.

Donjazet2:


You know it's Ramadan but you are lying through your teeth for propaganda.

Oasis when you watch this full clip in the context of this man's word, come back here and apologize for misinforming them.

And I hope you grow the balls to also condemn dayo who has said far worse than what you were just trying to feign faux anger at.

https://twitter.com/DipoSpeak/status/1639644690550071299?t=2wfgFFiJZJaakq0nol2eGA&s=19

You are the worst hypocrite the world has ever seen.
I look forward to see how you claw this propaganda back.

It's like I don't understand the meaning of context.

In this your video, the man literally said "The Yorubas are political rascals and we are going to handle them..."

I hate tribalism with everything in me because it further showcases the inferiority of the Negro men.

However, I will not call a spade a fruit basket.

Nobody is the victim in Naija. Just winners and losers.

Choose it. It puts you in the spotlight where you meet alot of people, unlike teaching job that can box you in a room people hardly meet you. You may even meet your future wife out of the many girls that smile to you. You also learn new skill and set of experiences.

Person dey struggle on less than 100k per month and you're telling him to meet future wife from girls that smile at him

Una no go kee me.

Op, please run from that teaching job. Run far.

MIRACULOUS123:
It happened recently

I acted like a dumbo and paid 5k for odds.

The man refused to reply me since then
He even have the audacity to tell me to send delivery fee after sending 5k to him.

Judf imagine,delivery fee for odds!!!

It was painful

The scammer no rate you oh

Nothing concerns me with tribal remarks online from Igbos or Yorubas as I am all about good governance. But when some people pushed good governance as a smokescreen to execute their sinister tribal plans, then I would be a coward not to air my opinion no matter whose ox is gored. You should know me from the Chelsea thread.

You defending tooth and nail, may even be ignorant of the major plan of those pushing for the Lagos LP takeover, unless you got exclusive access. Because I don't want to believe you are deliberately feigning ignorance.

So, for real, there is a plan?
A plan for LP takeover and Igbos to "rule" Lagos?
Same plan that was in play when a rallying call was made for Igbos to be dumped into the Lagoon because of Jimi "Okechukwu" Agbaje?

Seriously, this is what "educated" people think?

Abeg, don't reply. Just swallow spit and scroll on.

This country is finished.

I go follow this thread some weeks later for the football and other bants. By that time, the shinedus, okoros, refugees and sophisticated people go don dey pursue wetin face them individually.

TheUnsure,

If you can move to the UK, move.

Since you run an online business, think about scaling your business and exploring the possibilities of catering to the UK market (in addition to the Naija market).

Nigeria is not safe. It's not about the money. You're one illness or accident away from a preventable death. You're one wrong move away from getting caught up in tribal violence you never planned for.

Move if you can. The numbers may not add up immediately; but your kids will forever thank you.

My 2 kobo.

izzou:
One would think that our common interest was good governance, but it was automatically translated to Igbos taking over Lagos.

Arguments that you'll expect from the uneducated, is what you'll see Masters degree holders clutching to.

Until i see how a common Yoruba man benefits from all this tribal separation that happened yesterday, we all are CHINEDUS

Mc, Bayo, Sanwo-Olu will pop their champagnes and drink tonight. As for you? You already know where you will be.

Monday has come. All CHINEDUS will go back to their SQUARE ONE, while the real Omoluabis will enjoy their victory.

QED.

Many folks don't know that the real discrimination is between the haves & have nots. The real Chinedus, cone heads, flat heads, yam legs, oil gulpers, inyamiris, etc are the bloody masses.

The omoluabis, developers, ụmụ chineke, sophisticated people and all other fancy names are the elites.

Make everybody dey decieve themselves. Nigeria is gradually heading to what happened in Rwanda, sometime in April a la Hutu/Tutsi ethnic cleansing.

When it eventually starts, Obi, Tinubu, Oluomo, Obasanjo, Soludo...they will all enter planes and jet their families out. The remaining morons will butcher themselves.

I hope I leave soon. E better to dey hashtag saynotoracism or blacklivesmatter than share the same geographic location with species who mostly reason from their anus.

FEGEITOK:


I have also learned the concept of a useful idiot, and that even if someone should be fired, you have to choose the date of the firing very carefully to protect the business. I guess that is why you had to keep that guy till the project was delivered.

She was due for a salary review upwards. Zero intention of any upwards review.

I will keep her for now, until I can find and groom a replacement.

She begged to work remotely, and I said fine, draft a letter to so so and so. Sent all the materials, but 2 weeks later, I haven't seen the letter, and other than the initial excuse of power troubles, not a word.

After one week, I drafted the letter and sent it out myself.

Your last two posts really added context to the situation.

I think the niceness is even tipping the ruthless on the scale. I mean, you had to draft a letter for an employee to change status from on-site to remote?

If said employee doesn't turn up to work on some days and still expects full payment (knowing every opportunity the business has thrown to her, which she isn't even fully utilizing), then she has a problem with the content of her character.

Best case would be to get an intern (someone bright, young and hungry) to understudy her; if this doesn't keep her on her toes and makes her sit-up, then she's going to be deadwood sooner than later.

If I worked onsite and couldn't make it to work but still found a way to deliver on my job, then I'd expect full payment...

But I saw you bolded the part about paying employes "for the time spent under the employer's control..."

Which smells like you've made up your mind to prorate.

Two sides of the coin;
As an employer, business is ruthless and business is business; they either show up or they don't get paid in full.
As an employee (at least my type of person), moment I feel that my welfare doesn't really mean anything to the business, I'll jump ship for even a 2k increase.

It depends on the kinda workforce you wanna breed, to be honest.

Baba still dey call am "Honey"

They'll settle. Hope dey.
