Ijaw tribe, shey the girl nah virgin?? Ijaw related to Igbo self

ijaws are not related to igbos in any way. You people should learn how to travel or ask about other regions instead of jumping to harebrained conclusions

You worked at a particular block industry for thirteen years and didn't think it wise to at least gradually buy your own equipments, get land and start your own ? I think your father should sue you instead for wasting the thirteen years he tried teaching you to be independent instead of waiting for his money

Seun:
Dear Nairalander,

Our beloved forum will be going down for maintenance any moment from now. It may be down for a few hours or less.

Please do not be alarmed when it happens.

Regards,
Seun of Nairaland.

change that 40 characters thing. What if someone is asked a yes or no question, what do we do then ?

Asari, please keep quiet. You're one of the problems we have in the Niger Delta and it's unfortunate that someone of your calibre is recognized as a leader

SeeWahala:
So kindly tell us your own opinion on the killings so we know if your friend was right to block you or not 🤔

lack of comprehension is a serious problem amongst our youths in Nigeria today

chopnaira:
Mtchew. How much oil does abia produce sef. Lmao. They should go and chill.

I don't understand why you guys are so callous. Does the oil belong to you or your state ? Once it concerns an igbo man you people automatically start mocking and abusing them. God forbid una

Study the birds

Every year, certain species of birds; notably the Arctic Tern and some seabirds like the South Polar Skua are recorded flying over or near Antarctica and continuing beyond it, traveling thousands of miles.

This behavior presents a striking mystery. Why would these birds, driven by instinct and survival, take a path that goes over the harshest, coldest environment on Earth and seemingly continue past it, into what is officially mapped as endless frozen wasteland?

Instinctual migration patterns in birds are not random. They're the product of environmental feedback over millennia. Birds migrate to find food, to breed, or to reach more hospitable climates. So the question arises: what are these birds flying toward beyond the Antarctic region?

If Antarctica were truly just a frozen landmass with nothing beyond it but endless ice or ocean, such costly and dangerous migration would be biologically irrational. Yet birds consistently make this journey. GPS tracking has revealed that they don't simply circle back or stay near the Antarctic coast; some venture even farther south, beyond the known landmass.

One logical conclusion is that there is something there, possibly undiscovered land or warmer regions beyond the Antarctic perimeter. These birds may be following ancient migratory routes to landmasses that are not publicly acknowledged or mapped. After all, birds do not rely on human politics or maps, they follow environmental cues.

bottomless pit of "what ifs" . Read up on admiral Byrd and also the great ice wall

Welcome back boss. Glad to read something from you once again

Onyeabor sounds very familiar. Are you related to Mr William the musician ? Sorry for my curiosity

Reno okoro is always overexcited anytime he hears Peter Giringory Obi's name nut once he hears VDM he hides under the mattress with hid condemned shoes like a little busu

Let's see the Guardian publication first because from what I know, journalists usually try to contact the other side via calls and or text messages. They indicate if these are not answered with write ups like "efforts to get a response from Mr/Mrs Lagbaja were not successful as at press time as he/she didn't pick calls or reply messages. This is standard practice worldwide and protects the media house from frivolous lawsuits but if Guardian didn't put that caveat then, OYO is their name

MODIFIED:
I have read the article and no caveat was inserted. Guardian simply reported an allegation made by the Agwada Development Area and I think that association should be involved in the suit alongside Guardian so they can present documentary evidence to buttress their claims failure to do so, they should be made to face the law because they were very explicit in their allegations. This case will be very interesting if followed to conclusion. I support the mining marshal on this

My fear is been dominated in the relationship in the future

dominated how ? That only happens when you allow it to. Immediately handshake crosses the elbow, you cut it off and consistently cut that handshake by setting boundaries. Even Basiratu alagbo will try to dominate if you give her the chance talk less of this lady in your office and once they can control you, it's over. Stop any nonsense you see immediately and if it's what you can't condone or she repeatedly refuses to listen then, bounce. Tell her to carry her craze go front

PS, avoid office romance sha

Daddy Freeze has a slightly higher IQ than a rodent, don't take anything it says seriously. It and Reno okoro rattus rattus group

Why are you bothered about a single person when you've got a whole retinue of buttocks lickers at TVC, Channels, NTA and across the print and social media like Nation newspapers and Nairaland ? Rufai is a speck of dust in the ocean so, ignore him

jackals:
Our relationship just ticked the 1yrs 3months mark. I told him at the beginning that I’d love for him to propose to me b4 we start getting intimate as most relationships built on intimacy don’t last. He agreed. But as we get along, we eventually started having sex even tho it’s not how I pictured it. But I had to because I didn’t want him to leave.

At the start of this year, I made a resolution to stop giving in to sex and see how much affections he has for me looking at the fact that he’s not even asked me to be his wife. It’s always promise here and there.

If he initiated it, I always find an excuse..and most times he convinced me and I’ll give in. I won’t lie I know it’s hard because he’s had to initiate a couple of time which I denied and he’ll mostly beg and assure me of his commitment to our relationship.

However, I noticed since the beginning of the month of May, he’s stopped showing concerns. When he asked And I said no to sex, he will just say “ohh okay” and then sleep if it’s night time or pick his phone and off to gym. Nowadays he doesn’t even initiate anything nor ask for it. I asked him if he’s okay and he told me “he’s having some heavy back pain due to his recent workout routines” but I know he’s lying. He’s always like sex even after workout.

My intuition says he’s cheating and my friend confirmed same since her last relationship also ended the same way.

Tbh, I’d just stop getting worried about this and stop asking him since he’s decided to keep mute.

stop telling lies, this story never happened to you

When did Amen Ra stop being of Egyptian origin and become an "oyinbo god" ? You really need to use that Google yourself

I see many spawns of satan wailing violently on this thread because their principals don't have a tenth of Peter Giringory Obi's integrity . Their principals are majority land owners in the states they governed while their "pensions" as ex governors can comfortably fund twenty local governments without shaking. Evil demons

Lagos state of blood and crime. This can be traced to the devastating effects of the APC's economic maladministration of Nigeria which has forced otherwise hardworking men into crime.

I hope this lady had the brains to visit a police station first to make a report so that the bank details of those criminals can be traced ? It's not everytime we rush to social media

Hello fellow nairalanders, trust your day is going well
There is this female colleague of mine at work who buys stuffs for or me time to time especially when I help her out with a task.So yesterday was her birthday and she did a party at her home and we attended the party.She told me she likes me and won't mind if I can be her lover.I like her to a point as well and another thing is she is from a rich home though am ahead of her in the banking system but I haven't experienced this before.No girl has shown me love like this before.Sometimes, when we go for lunch (because she likes going for lunch with me) she never allow me pay her bill.Sometimes she will even pay mine and my fellow male collegues have encouraged me to ask her out but I don't really fancy relationships at work before she made it clear to me yesterday and I am scared she is not trying to set me up sha because I have being applying some red pill energy around me of recent 😂
What would you advise me to do yo

avoid office romance except you can get a better job elsewhere first. Don't complicate your life in this hard economy

peanutbutterr:
you were getting it till a point you lost it.
This right here..


you press a woman 2k worth of airtime, and the next thing she tells you is that she have a crush that tops her with 10k card every week. some won’t even regard your gift. op never do this in the initial stage.



Common man, why you would advise him to do that? this is just hilarious.
what if after doing all this and she hits him with the rejection line? “ sorry i like you as friend but i’m not looking for a relationship now” all those investments and time gone down the drain.

women are only loyal to their emotion. hence whenever they loses interest in a man, they just work away like he never existed, disregarding every investment he had made on them.. if you like a lady declare your interest from the start by having interest to get laid with her. don’t act like a fool writing Shakespeare epistle to her.



Another hilarious point. since you want to turn your pocket to her personal atm, how then do you get her invested in you? if she can’t get aso ebi and sew it with her own money then she’s not investing in your affairs.
our women have so evolved in character, following them the old school way won’t just cut it in the dating world.

The right way to go about women isn’t too complex.
1. After your first date with her just for the sake of familiarity.

2. Next date with her should be at your house, this’s where you get laid.

3. make her invest in you monetarily. Directly or indirectly. ever noticed a beautiful young woman stuck with one broke jobless handsome guy? and you keep asking why can’t she just walk away from the r/ship

there are different styles to everything. Some are slow while some are fast. Is getting laid the primary intention of his dating a girl from his church ? My process is meant for him to properly gauge her character while pretending he's of modest means with marriage as the end goal. Getting laid when you have money is the easiest thing in the world, finding true love especially from a responsible lady isn't hence the need to showcase her to friends and family via social functions so they can see what he doesn't

Get anything LG or Samsung showrooms are selling so you can be sure of proper after sales service and you can even get a technician there who'll gladly do repairs at your place with original parts and cheaper prices

1STCREATURE:
Please I really need genuine advice.

I’ve collected the numbers of more than 12 girls in my church — and every single one rejected me. Not even friendship, just straight rejection.

I know I’m not bad-looking — I’d rate myself above 7/10, no exaggeration. I dress well, I keep myself neat, I have curly hair and a good physique. I also earn over ₦500k monthly, so money is not my problem.

I don’t even live in the city — just a town here in the Southwest — by local standards, I know I’m doing well for my age.

I’ll be 30 next month, and honestly, I’m mentally tired. I’ve never even had a serious relationship — marriage talk is far.

The funny part is, I don’t even talk too much in church. I’m not loud, but when I try to approach someone, it never works out.

Please, I really want to know — what could be my problem?


I’ll appreciate real advice, please no insults. 🙏

Thank you all.


CAN I BE TOO INTIMIDATING?

asking if you're "too intimidating" shows you have a touch of arrogance in your character which is a huge turn off for women as it's a close companion of immaturity, boastfulness and emotional abuse. This is just my analysis and I may be wrong but going by what I've observed, I suggest you genuinely learn to be humble and start your dating pursuits in a company neutral location maybe a gym or another branch of your church. Don't show yourself or brag even jokingly. Just remain friendly with all and if there's one you like, focus on her alone and invite her out to lunch or a drink across the road after fellowship or workers meeting etc. Don't say anything about relationship o but once in a while, press her airtime of 1k or 2k and be observing her to see her deeper qualities and if she passes your test, get her a small gift like a perfume or tshirt. Something thoughtful but doesn't say romance while she gets comfortable being around you. You can say "I went shopping and thought this would look nice on you" THEN if you guys are still comfortable around each other, you can invite her for a friend's occasion. If she passes their test, casually invite her to that of your family's. Buy her aso ebi and give her money for tailor.
You have to go about love the old school way instead of like a Hot rabbit which they'll see easily. Let me know if you need more expo

Nyesom Wike is a man you'll want on your team any day as long as you keep a tactical leash on him. We in Rivers state who know him and his antecedents laughed and warned the PDP that they'll make the greatest mistake ever if they allowed him get their presidential ticket in 2023 and it's simply because of decorum. I have this morbid fear that he'll talk himself into serious problems with his principal and those Tinubu can't say no to. The president will definitely start spring cleaning his cabinet very soon, Wike shouldn't talk himself into the list of those to go

Maybe, just maybe you guys aren't as talented as you think you are and were just surviving off great instrumentals and production

lovediehatelive:
So I use to pluck moringa leaf from a tree close to a house I was staying to make tea.

Things were going smoothly and I loved it because it makes me relax without getting addicted.

There are several ways I could relax, but most of them especially things to take have a very dangerous[b] side effect: ADDICTION.[/b]

this is why I opted for moringa as the tea makes me feel well and grounded and helps me concentrate.

Things changed when I moved. I couldn't get any moringa tree around to pluck the leafs, and I just tried to forget about it.


My mind was off it totally when one day I mistakenly stumbled upon a thread on nairaland talking about the benefits of moringa, something I already knew. I was mistakenly going through the comments when someone said you can easily get it online or supermarket.

Supermarket? I mistakenly thought of it and decided to give it a try. It won't be fresh, but let me try it.

I mistakenly went to the supermarket and mistakenly asked for moringa. I was shown the section for tea and beverages and I mistakenly went there to look for it.

I didn't see moringa and I mistakenly looked well until I saw a packet written moringa.


I mistakenly picked it up, and saw that it was actually green tea and moringa. Instead of me to drop it, I mistakenly took it, thinking that the moringa covers for the green tea.

I haven't taken green tea, but I've heard of it. I mistakenly didn't consider the side effects, and I mistakenly bought the green tea disguised as moringa.


This was where my woes started. I mistakenly made the green tea moringa tea, and mistakenly drank it.

The taste was somehow, but not too bad. I felt alert and sharp, my memory clear and awesome.

I could remember things very clearly and my focus was sharp.

But I didn't know that I mistakenly started something that would have effect on me.

I wasn't looking forward to slimming down, I only wanted moringa tea to help me focus.


At first I felt clarity of mind and highly alert, but that was it. Any little thing, I quickly noticed and responded. Seems like I could hear ants walking, little details and sounds were very clear to me.

This was bad for me. The noise from moving cars, loud music, generator noise and noisy people around made it counter effective.

This wasn't the kind of clarity I wanted.

Actually want I needed was focus not total clarity. For me to be kinda numb to the world around and highly focused on things around me, the particular thing I'm attending to at the moment.


But I mistakenly took green moringa tea and it made me really light. My head was lighter than our current transparent black nylon.


Any little noise triggers me. I became restless and irritable.



Night sleep? Gone

Focus? Gone

Steeze? Reduced drastically.



Instead of me to stop at first try, I mistakenly took the green moringa tea again, and again, until...


It now seems like all my flesh are gone and like they use spoon to scrape what's remaining, just like how I usually scrap off burnt rice from the bottom of delicious jollof rice back then.



What do I do? I don't want to mistakenly continue, I want my focus back.

My steeze restored.

My peaceful night sleep restored.


How do I counter this effect fast the natural way without substance that causes addiction?

you guys really need to stop these unnecessary lies

Kalulu44:
Are you seriously asking this question about a 3 term serving former senator.
See, I am not a fan of either she, her husband, their party or any other parties. But come of it, a 1 term serving senator in Nigeria is already a billionaire talkless of 3 term. Though we all know most of the monies are gotten from corruption

sometimes, just keep quiet instead of making a mockery of yourself because as it stands now, you're making things worse with your infantile attempts at a logical defense of absurdity. You should have just stopped at her explanation that the funds were raised/ donations instead of this yamayama you posted two times. Do you know what one billion naira is at all ?

marlow1962:
Hahahahahahahahaha cowards. If they really want the Fulanis to go, they know what to do.

Ogonis are the last people you want to call in fact, I'm very surprised that they took this matter to the police since they're not a patient people at all. This matter has to be treated with all seriousness before it gets out of hand

Bayo should really consider thinking things through before opening his mouth. Does the fact that Peter Giringory Obi did something "wrong" mean that Tinubu should do the same thing ? Bayo is becoming increasingly annoying because nobody gave him a job description of Obi Reactor

Kemetian:
Why should Reno respond to your coalition of criminals?

Coalition of has-beens.

Gang of crooks looking for their final payday.

Men approaching their 80s whose only work is to chop our money.

Why should he respond to their latest attempts to fleece the Nigerian people and reverse the economic reforms designed to lift the country?

Next thing you know, these thieves will come in and reinstate fuel subsidies and restore the corrupt dual exchange rates their companies used to do arbitrage and siphon money, driving away investors.

Nonsense.

If you want to send Nigeria backwards, just vote in this irresponsible gang of looters.

cry harder my boy, your tears give me the purest joy

VDM gave Reno okoro enough to think about few days ago and he hasn't been himself ever since

ChukwuObe:
What did he contribute to the APC victory in 2023? You guys just like to deceive yourself

e pain am. What has the APC positively contributed to Nigeria ?
