Sincerely speaking, I never thought people could be this wicked, yesterday I was gifted airtime , won it actually by helping someone with something, I then tried to convert the airtime to cash, I am badly in need of money so I was looking for someone to buy the airtime 1k for 1k, my very good friend recommended someone, I don't usually trust easily but since he was recommended, I decided to make an exception, yesterday evening I chatted him up and he said I should send the airtime to this mtn number 0 81 3201 2639..before sending it I made sure to let him know that that was all that was with me that without it I won't eat anything for the day talk less of the next, I said so much to garner sympathy to at least remove any mind of dubiousness if it was there, he assured me and I sent the airtime, I messaged him from yesterday till this morning with no reply until he blocked me about 2 hours ago, I told my friend and she says he has never acted like this before that he was the one who helped her out on several occasions

Nigerians are too wicked, I don't know whether it's the callousness of our rulers that cause it or it's just in the blood. Well, sorry for your experience pls, there is a law of retribution that does not spare any deed whether good or evil, all human deeds shall surely be visited.

Hello everyone, I have an idea. I think we should kuku turn this thread to an episode of foolish question thread. Here we go: The wall clock in my living room has stopped since three days now, though I have bought a set of new batteries, should I replace the bad batteries or I should leave the clock dead as it is? Kindly advise, no insult pls.
Over to the guy below me

If you are choosing a partner what is the spec you go for beauty, talent or character

Character first o. If she lacks character, her talent will not be profitable to her because her ill-manners will keep sending helpers or potential customers away no matter how quality her products are, and when she is broke, will beauty feed her or take care of her needs?

I love my wife so much. But her two aunties don't want us together. They manipulated my wife and unfortunate for me she fell for their traps. My wife started misbehaving, abusing me, she tored my clothes, and disgraced me.
She said I don't give her food and that I beat her. And is not true.
On this faithful day, I went to work just for to come back and see that she have packed all her belongings. I have been patient with my wife. She committed alot of atrocities that I still fogave her. My wife was once married but she never told me. My wife was twice pregnant for me but she always abortion the child.my wife always goes out without my permission. This her said aunty is divorces already. My wife also is now with her. Two ladies divorced living together without going back to their parents house.

Have you divorced her or planning to do so? If you have done so, I want to say congratulations. You just escaped a death trap. That woman does not deserve to be married.
But it seems you still love her with all these "my wife, my wife" in your post, are you sure you want to leave her??

Another silly question coming from a supposed adult. The other day, somebody was asking how much he should save from his salary of N75k, we are still trying to figure out the level of intelligence of that one and boom, this one surfaced again!
Do we know the kind of job you do, the condition of your work environment, the kind of transport you use everyday, your body odour and how heavy you sweat? I'm sure very soon another dunce will come with a question like "I am a human, but I don't know whether I'm a man or woman, any idea?" or something like "I just finished cooking a delicious meal but I don't know whether to eat or throw it away, please advise (note that I'm seriously hungry like mad)".
When you rely on other people's opinion before you take the simplest of decisions of your life or you need approval from others before you use your brain, then you seriously lack what is supposed to be a common sense and you are not qualified to be a minor let alone an adult. No insult intended please, just my own token.

Like your moniker, may God forgive you.

.no one is an island of knowledge, the little advice he may get here can help him and others reading this better prepared,especially from people who have been in similar situation.

I agree, but this kind of forum is not where you learn such knowledge. Nairaland is full of all manners of people who are actually nothing offline. Both adults and minors that are not supposed to be using android phones are all here as well as disciplined and immoral people. Imagine somebody like slawomir who is proud to be a yahoo boy and drug addict lecturing you on how you should make money or save money, what kind of advice do you expect from such person?

JOHNFBOSCO:
Good day Nairalanders. I Recently got this job, after several attempts of applying both online and offline. My monthly salary is average #75,000 per month, I used the word "Average" because its not static. Sometimes it could lower, as low as 60,000 and hardly surpass 90,000...so it's a commission work.

And we all know commission work is not reliable, you could be fired anytime. So please my question is, with the Nigeria standard of living, couple with the recent economic hardship, so now, the question is how much is ideal to save per month from this Salary.

To and fro from my work place is around 850 per day. We report to office 3  or 4 times in a week sometimes. I noticed that at tmes I even struggled to survive on 60k a month, minus miscellaneous oooo...chai e no easy (p.s. single and I stay alone)

Cc FOD, dominique, Rocktation, farano
Please help move to front page.

I dislike these kind of questions. Things like this is supposed to be strictly a personal decision. You are the one that knows what you are aiming at financially and what expenses you incurred regularly. I believe you are older than 18 years so you are an adult, no more a minor. You work for your money so set your own financial goal by yourself.

I mentioned this before when I was talking about what to avoid when considering buying a piece of land. Here we go again:

Don't buy land close to petrol pipelines or gas pipelines.
You will always see indications erected along the pathway
where the pipeline runs underground. Don't buy any land
that is 50m close to such warning signs. God forbid, if
anything tampers with the pipe and it goes off in explosion,
all the houses along its path will be leveled.

2. Don't by any land that is situated under high tension
cables. I repeat, don't buy land under high tension cable.
Look up when you are on the land with the land sellers. Be
sure you are not hearing any humming noise from any high
tension cable around or close to the land.

3. Don't buy marshy land if you want to have rest of mind
and sleep with your eyes closed in your house on rainy
nights. It is often advised that the best time to go check a
house you want to rent is during rainy season, it is also
advisable to go check land during rainy season too, to give
you an idea what the area will be during flooding and what
your foundation will have to withstand, and moreso, if you
wont be needing to relocate to upland every year during
rainy seasons. Moreover, marshy areas are comfortable
habitat for reptiles and you will be seeing them often
around your house until other sites around you are all
cleared and developed.

4. Don't buy a land that is too close to factories or
industries releasing harzardous wastes into the atmosphere
or environment. It will be detrimental to your health and
other occupants in your house and you wont be able to
challenge them successfully because the area might have
been designated or earmarked for industries before you got
there.

5. Lastly, don't buy any land you are not sure of its former
owners if you are buying from individuals. Once your heart
start doubting what the sellers are telling you, please quit
the negotiation cleverly. Sometimes a particular land would
be sold to two or more different buyers who bought from
different agents or seperate family members of the original
owner. Some people have paid more than twice for the
same land because different family members keep showing
up telling the buyers that they were not aware their family
land was sold, now asking you to pay their own price all
over again. If you are buying from family of the first owner,
be sure you see all the family elders or key representatives
of every segment of the family involved and they all append
their signatures on the agreement to sell the land to you.
Cheers.

Is Yoruba land not part of Nigeria again? Do they now have their most desired Oduduwa nation?

What happen to the Biafra dream?

The wise ones say that the grey hair on the head of the elderly people is their crown or glory. Same way the brown roofs on top of many houses in the old towns of Ibadan signifies age, wisdom and glory of the city.

Taking marriage counseling from a divorcee

Buuuahahahahahaha

Taich:
It's tricky but you have option, get water storage rubber tanks like two hundred litres x2, make sure you fill them on water pumping days.

OP, follows this advise, but don't offer to increase your payment for Nepa bill. You will be giving your landlady an idea to increase her house rent.

helinues:
Are you saying other world leaders also wasted their taxpayers money to attend the meeting?

Don't give any reply to these pigs again, they are only looking for who will roll in the mud with them.

misano:
You are supporting Tinubu out of sentiments. The economy will not pity any of us out of sentiments if Tinubu fails to perform.

So far so good, you will agree with me and every other reasonable person that Tinubu seems to have a good intention afterall.

JennyJossie:
Your advice pls at 29 to 30 some one is ready to marry you and also promise to train you in school, but you are not sure. And one of your relative said he will train you in school, and you are sure about it but on the conditions that you must let go of marriage issues. Which one will you go for

Whichever way, school first. Who wants to marry a nonentity or a liability?

Ronaldo723:
I find it so extremely difficult to keep friends before you say Jack we have gotten issues don't know what's wrong with me

I can stay in the house for a week without my neighbors knowing I'm around

Please I need help my social lifestyle is dead

You don't need too many friends. If it's only two quality friends you have that add value to your life, you are good to go. The only friend I always see around Aliko Dangote is either Femi Otedollar or Bill Gates.

Gbogbowa:
elders like wole Soyinka that will condemn Datti and let Oluomo be,or call Obidient fascist without condemning the rigging by Inec by not standing by his guidelines.you are not Obidient stop lying

What about Chief Olusegun Obasanjo who publicly endorsed Peter Obi despite that Tinubu went to visit him in his house? You people always like to cite instances that only suit your own blind narratives.

helinues:
Immediately after the Apc presidential primary, the Apc supporters who supported former vice president Osinbajo was initially having a soft mind for Obi but along the line, they turned back cos of the toxicity in the camp.

No decorum, opposing view can never be tolerated, if not their way then it must be soak away..

Imagine those who have abused others before the election, instead of them to at least feal remorse to sway people to their side, no if you are not in their camp, go to hell, where on earth have such kind of politics won any election before?

They have a fundamentally faulty mentality and that is why every other tribe in Nigeria always see something wrong about them. Even their closest neighbour, South South, finds them highly irritating and offensive. What am I saying, even among themselves in the South East, they hate themselves, that is why they regard some of their own people as outcast, called OSU.

I don't know why the biafrans are obsessed with the Nigerian president. They must fulfill their destiny of wailing anyway, as members of the Association of Professional Rotwailers.

helinues:
Haba, opposition is not madness, you guys can't be condemning every move by his Excellency Tinubu just because you are in opposition.

Why not allow him to retire in peace without causing more damages to his reputation?

I was actually on the side of the so-called obidients before and during the presidential election despite that I'm not Igbo. As a matter of fact, you and I have exchanged words on this forum around that election period. However, I saw that they lack morals and any form of decorum or good manners. Most especially, the way they were insulting the elder man, President Tinubu, made me to have a rethink and switched camp to his side.

Buliwyf:
You are a shameless hypocrite. You didn't see the other person he is replying to insulting someone's mother right? You are worst than he is.

I wont fire back at you because you didn't read my message well and you got me wrong. I was actually referring to the idiot you talked about that was insulting someone's mother. I'm sure the person I quoted will understand my message that I am on his side. Now, could you please retract your harsh statement to me?

snowball11:
Inconsequential asshole like yourself should not be quoting 2pac lyrics while trying to prove your stupidity!

So many uncultured, ill-trained or untrained children on social media and public forum these days. Imagine the kind of offensive language that one was using because he has the liberty to hide behind his gadget to type and post rubbish to anybody.

nairalanda1:
Nukes are meant to scare the other guy into not using his nukes...based on the priniciple of mutually assured destruction, or MAD.

They are not meant for actual battlefield use.

Especially not in Ukriane.

The problem with nukes...with a normal bomb, the damage is limited to point X. With nuclear weapons, the damage spreads from point X to point Y. Friends and foes are all affected.

Remember, today's nukes are not like the ones dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They are more powerful, with higher yield and higher potential for fallout.

Why are you taking your precious time to educate that kid on nukes when he is supposed to be learning his nursery rhymes? See, not everybody on Nairaland is an adult. He certainly knows next to nothing about Nuclear weapons and how they work except what he has been seeing in fiction movies. He thinks nuclear weapon is just like a grenade you can deploy on enemies and go your way.

Djele:
It was tinubu who went to meet her. Correct your headlines. No one meets an election thief

Look at the photos well again, zoom the pictures if you still have a problem. If you still can't figure out who went to meet who, then I'll recommend that you need eyes surgery.

Simp personified..

Mr Simp how far, have you paid your mother-in-law's bride price?

Fuckyoumod:
The only right answer to the time that is nearest to - (To) 12:00Amis 11: 55 pm.

I know a lot of people would go for 12:03am, Because is just 3 minutes apart. But they are wrong.

This is why it's a tricky question.

Check the options properlly, there is no 11:55 pm there, all the zones are a.m.

SIMPonPatrol:
Only a very foolish man will use all his life savings to buy a gift for a girlfriend

Read my comment again and stop jumping like a frog into what does not concern you. If you still don't understand my hyperbole, then you are truly a SIMP that you call yourself.

Calling your fellow man a bast.ard cos of of yeye story that we are not even sure if the story complete..
Disgrace to manhood

Shut up that your dirty bucal cavity you call mouth. A 419 cannot be a "fellow" man. And your statement shows that you are also a fraudster and a complete disgrace to humanity. You should have come as a pig.
