My friend is a lecturer and someone who claimed to be a former student of his school is threatening his life through a foreign WhatsApp number. The number which start with +1(469) seems to be very difficult to track, he has reported to the law enforcement agencies but the threat continued since Monday. What else can do pls? My friend is so frightened about this and we his friends have been trying to calm him down and encourage him

MORE FAKE STORIES WRITTEN BY TOURS TRULY

WE SABI THE WAY.. CATCHY HEADLINE , STUPID STORY

UNA NEED CLICKS BADLY

Are you normal?

In terms of being roomy, Ford edge is better

In body length Highlander is a bit longer

Ford Edge have a more beautiful dash board, my opinion though Highlander isn't bad too

In engine size, Ford edge has 2.0L i4 engine while Highlander has 2.7L i4 engine. Ford edge also carries the 2.7L V6 while Highlander carries 3.5L V6

In performance i.e. power, ford edge produces more power than Highlander

In fuel economy, Ford edge performs better

In interior designs, ford edge is more beautiful

In exterior shape, Highlander is better

In pricing, ford edge is cheaper than Highlander

Above all, in availability of spare parts, Highlander being Toyota have its parts available in all parts of Nigeria while ford edge will often take you to Lagos or the big cities. For instance I live in Akure, my pastor who drives 2012 Ford Explorer sometimes have to wait for 2 or 3 days before he can get minor parts fixed since he has to wait for the part to be bought and sent from Lagos. I think cost of maintenance may be higher because of this.

Issue of availability of competent mechanics have been settled with many automated auto technicians now springing up in many state capitals and other cities and towns.

Overall, I personally will choose the Ford edge over the Highlander so as to save up to 4 million naira in cost and since it won't be my only car.

Since your sister can afford to buy either of the two, let her go for the Ford, she won't have issues with maintenance. Toyota cars have a way of becoming boring with frequent use especially when you realise that its so common in your area.

@ infogenerator, are you a prophet? That is exactly what will happen to Uncle Stanley and his family whether now or in the nearest future. OP can only continue to advise him to just "calm down".

Uncle calm down, only Stanley can stop it not you Sir. Just continue to talk gently to him, let him see that what he's doing is wrong. E be like say Daddy Stanley is from Cross River or Akwa Ibom, no vex o.

You can't communicate effectively to her about her distasteful begging habit without hurting her ego. If you want her to change then be BLUNT.

This is my point too. Tell her to her face, no wahala about that, she no work put money for your pocket now.

Same with the wife of my cousin. She borrowed money from everybody in our family. My mum, myself, my sisters, everybody including very young people in the family. Most annoying is that she will never pay back but will come back when she realized you must have forgotten. If you remind her of the last amount borrowed her, she'll plead that she'll pay all by month end. OP must be a gentleman, I called my cousin and told him everything and asked him to warn her. That was how she stopped borrowing money from anyone in our family. She even stopped greeting me and some of my siblings and cousins sef, who cares?

Great Vehicle, that's my crush. I'll buy one by the special grace of Gof

@ Kennybabs,

If he bought the house in GRA and owned it, why did he bother returning to the former house and area with bad roads?

I know you said he sold the GRA house to raise money, but money for what? To contest elections?

Honestly all these things na we hear we hear. But the man came back from his high horse. Today he's plying the same roads he refused to help in speaking to government about when he had the opportunity

Thunder fire them!
Who sent them to Indonesia?
Shey na Buhari wey never dey in control of his family in Aso Rock go know say anyone dey Indonesia?
Someone who left his wife to be humiliated by a cabal is been looked upon to protest them in Indo what?
Stupid people!

Thunder fire them. Se na Buhari wey no fit oversee his family in Aso Rock go no say anyone dey Indonesia? Stupid people!

Na una dey encourage corruption in politics. I'm sure you would have been all giddy and happy if he had been handing you public money.

Forget bros, no one is talking about government money here. The people in the estate are taxpayers and could legitimately ask for development. We are aware that government had so much in their hands and many local estates in the city are making moves to have development in their area. Nobody went to him for personal favours but for the good of everyone in the area where he is also a house owner. There's no corruption in this!

I live in Akure, Ondo State. Before moving to my present house, I lived in a rented apartment at Oke-Aro Titun area of the city. It was a very rough street even though the houses are very good and neat. The roads are bad and unpaved. During the rainy season, it was a really tough wahala for those who live in that area.

There was this politician who is a landlord in the area, he used to attend meeting with the landlord association. My then landlord is my uncle so I represented him in the meeting several times. This politician was always raising the issue of roads in the area at the meetings. As things turn out, he was given a big political appointment as Chairman of a board in 2013 by the Dr Mimiko led government.

The residents were so happy about the appointment. We believed he will use his position to help lobby the commissioner of works and the state government to look at the roads in the area. Alas, he didn't do that. He relocated his family to Alagbaka GRA. We thought it was an official quarter and that we'll always have assess to him. We were wrong. At first, he'll welcome the association executives to his office and make promises but after sometime, he couldn't be reached again. They went through his wife, that was the worst thing done by the association. The wife told them to leave her husband alone since he's not the works commissioner or SA (works and Infrastructure). The landlords left and we were all left with no help anywhere.

In 2016, this same woman came to the area to tell the residents to work hard to ensure Dr Mimiko succeed in installing a successor and that if the area give enormous support by their votes, their case will be easy to present to Mr Governor. No one listened to her. People in the area actually voted against their candidate because of this politician and his family. The election came and went, their party lost but they continued to stay at the GRA. So we thought the house was sold to them or so. I moved to my new site in 2018 but by late 2019, I heard that this family came to renovate their old house at Oke Aro. And by January 2020, they relocated back to the area and has been living there ever since.

What we heard happened was that the man actually bought the GRA house when he was in office, when they lost, he tried to sell the house in our area but he didn't get buyer so he had to dispose the GRA house to raise money. Now they have stopped attending landlord association meetings, though I learnt that he normally send his contributions through his son. During the COVID-19 palliatives distribution, he brought 10 bags of rice and semolina to the association which they rejected. He was told to share it to people as he deem fit since the landlord association didn't know the formula they could use in sharing the packages he sent. He shared it himself with a lot of people collecting it while many turned it down.

The lesson here is this, when you have opportunity, use it for the benefit of the people because nothing last forever. People were not asking for personal favours but for the good of everyone in the area where he is also a house owner. He forget that nothing goes up that won't come down. When the opportunities are no longer there, the people touched would still have rallied round him. Today, he's so quiet in the area, his once flamboyant and cheery wife have gone into a kind of seclusion within the streets of the area, they now drive in and out on the same rough roads they begged him to help speak to the authorities for. The roads are worse now. The landlords will use bulldozer to level the roads during dry season but it get worse with the coming of new rains. If he had tried his best and it didn't work out, people would have commended him for his efforts but he formed big man only to come back to his real base later.

People like that are everywhere. We discussed something like this in our Sunday school I think in March, RCCG Sunday school. One woman stood up to say "if you do good to anyone, forget it, stop expecting appreciation", I told the woman that ingratitude is sinful. Have you noticed these stupid goatee bearded young guys of these days? They don't appreciate anything. I hate ingrates!

tracyfemmmm:
Lol. What is your business with what she used the money for? She asked and you gave without conditions or are you planning to ask for Sex as a reward?

Forget that. I've stopped that, I don't do sex outside marriage anymore. God help me, Amen.

Zita55:




Ewoo!!! She Dy use juju on you ni?

I actually thought I was helping her. She could just have kept what she did with the money to herself, she told me.

Nbote:
U are STUPID

You just said the obvious. I look even stupid to myself. Something I don't even do for myself or my wife. I have never spent 10k on my kids birthday before, I look so stupid to myself.

I dated her while in the university, she was a very nice girl. She got another man while I was still hustling around looking for jobs, so we couldn't get married. We actually discussed then and I released her to go and marry because she is my age mate, we were born same year and I wouldn't want to ask her to continue waiting while I continue to hustle. I married 4 years after her. We have been friends on Facebook since 2010 and there's nothing unusual between us. She live in Ibadan with her family while I live in Akure. In January 2020 she asked me to assist her financially to meet certain personal obligation which her hubby couldn't meet because his business isn't doing well of late, she said she'll need the money by end of February and that it's I who she had in mind that could be of help. I promised to do something before the time. She didn't tell me the details of what she wanted to do with the money. Mid February, I was able to sell off 2 plots of land I bought some years ago, In have been trying to sell of the plots without success for sometime. I transferred something tangible to her account which she appreciated so much. Last week in February, I saw a lot of pictures of people in beautiful dresses on Facebook and Instagram. It was a big birthday party for her hubby. I just wrote congratulations. One thing with me is that I hate spending money on parties, I'll rather give it to people around me or invest in buying land.
She later chatted with me on messenger and informed me that I made the birthday party happen, that she used the money I gave her to organize a surprise party for her hubby. I was so amazed.
Why did she have to tell me she used the money I gave her for the party?
Why did she had to seriously beg me for such money?
Where will she tell her hubby she for the money from?
Why didn't she tell me what she wanted to use the money for?

Chuks is a great guy, a good friend of mine in my office. He's happily married as far as I'm concerned. His wife is a school teacher and they have two kids. But I noticed that a particular beautiful lady comes to check on him in the office at least once a week. I asked him about the lady last week, he said she's just a friend. When I probed further, I discovered that the lady is a single mother of two and works as a nurse. That's last week.
Today he called me by himself and told me he's dating the lady and that his wife caused it. He said his wife has timetable for sex, he can't touch her at anytime he like, she complains a lot and tells him sex is not food. He said there are times she won't allow him to touch her in a whole month and that this causes a lot of arguments in their home incessantly. He said he made up his mind to stop this incessant arguments this year and therefore went for this beautiful single mother who has been satisfying him sexually since January. I told him I didn't agree with his solution to his wife's attitude if its true and he told me he had peace since he ventured outside his matrimonial home to get regular sex and that his wife hasn't ask from him since he stopped asking her for sex since January. Since I ain't in his shoe, I couldn't really prevail on him to stop?
Is this a genuine reason for adultery?
Can't he make more effort to sort things out with his wife?
Can't this strange lady cause trouble for him in his family?

Thank your God for crying out on nairaland.com, otherwise you wouldn't have taken step that yielded this positive result. 350k is still a far cry out of 3million which may be up to 3.8 million by the end of the loan tenure, continue your prayers but don't be so trusting to do that again some other time. That your cousin is unserious, how can you do people's wedding with borrowed money, bank loan for that matter. Thank your stars if he fully defray the loan, I have my doubts!

Weathered:
your relationship with this married woman is unhealthy and devilish.

You're not a family member so why is she telling you the frequency and situation of her husband's sex life with her and you're a male.

I find your relationship with her more needing of attention than her husband "old fashioned" ways

Did you read the story at all? Did you read how the OP and his family have come a long way with Bose? Go and sit down joor.

Abfinest007:
do we still have these kind of primitive people in these Nigeria

Plenty. My uncle is one of them. He believes so much that the gas in AC is carcinogenic, he'll fight you if you try to tell him its not true.

johnkey:
Give me her number I want to greet her

ole

crackhaus:
How is any of this even a problem that required her to go blabbing. Air conditioning & wanting to have sex while pregnant? Seriously?

No point Sir, you don't know how it feels when a hubby don't pump her ball...

How did it happen please?

olabrinks:
Breast milk contaminated with semen. Loool. She is seriously suffering.

She has to endure. Marriage is all about compromise. I mean, what else does she want to do? That man is stuck in his ways, nobody or nothing is going to change that. She should sexually satisfy herself until she is done with breastfeeding Lool

Sexually satisfy herself until she's done with breastfeeding? How please?

Lol......
AC carcinogenic?
That must really be an ancient man.
I have an uncle like that o,he doesn't buy car with AC because it is carcinogenic, very funny uncle.
As per this sex thing, I think she need to tactically introduce her hubby to a relationship advisor/marriage councillor. That lady must have rushed into marriage without first understanding the man she married, very unfortunate.
