➜ those have political affiliations one way or the other ... it is not as easy as the abroad .. you could even find guns on waste bin in the abroad...

And this political affiliation is impossible for this boy to acquire?

DeeScan:
he atleast wont get access to guns, shanks, and yhe whatnots they do around there...

Because the terrorists, gang/cult boys, kidnappers, etc., in African countries don't have access to many of the same?

You mean he would feel less about himself for not being a savior? 🤔

✓ You are someone that will never see good in anyone's idea. You have a negative perspective of every thing suggested. You have NOT brought forward any counter positive suggestions. You thrive on just tearing down ideas you could never have come up with.
✓ Asides, being combat ready with what if,what about,what of.....I dare you to make a more intelligent counter suggestion. Let me see if your brain cells can create anything other than negative opinions

1. So, I am to blame for what seems a so well-thought out idea? 😩😩😩😩😩

2. Oh, now you want to turn this into a show of wits, abi? 😔😔😔😔

➜The rich cannot work there themselves.They have to employ people. If Amazon gets tax breaks and gets more business, it will need to hire more staff. I don't think this concept id for you. You seem to just want to argue regardless of me enlightening you. You seem like a doomsday naysayer...People who dont believe anything can ever work......lol

Recall I had asked if your idea had been tried and tested in a place like Nigeria or at least a situation such as Nigeria is in today. Well, your response tells me all I need to know. 🤔

The working conditions and situation for the average Nigerian worker, some of who work for companies owned by these supposedly rich people is nothing to be compared to that obtained by those who work with Amazon. So, abeg, thank you ... come again! 🙄

If there is one thing this administration is firmly against, it is anything leaning toward anti-corruption. That much we should all be clear on at this point. ☹️

Yahoo Pastor from a yahoo church, pretending to serve God. Okay the deaconess Abiola Obileye na ein side chick

Name just one of your many pastors/popes/bishops/priests/etc., that is not operating the same or similar Yahoo scam against their gullible followers. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

➜Tax break be extended to any company which the visiting Nigerians decide to patronize (Once they give you the vouchers, you can give some to FIRS in lieu of taxes). The visiting Nigerians have the choice of walking into any establishment and using their coupons.(This eliminates bias of selection of whether an establishment is owned by a rich or poor Nigerian).
➜This is a moot point. This is a tried and tested model in many economy models. Its modified version of travel miles, credit card points, And yes it will stimulate the economy,increase employment, without necessarily deploying physical cash by the federal government. If you still dont understand do a little research....its not voodoo, i promise.

If you have ever had people visiting Nigeria or visited Nigeria yourself, you would note that there are businesses you almost instinctively stay away from. And many of these businesses are run by poor Nigerians. And you do so likely because you don't trust the quality of their products or you are too afraid of the potential health repercussions of patronizing their wares. I don't visit any roadside bukaterias, buy pure water from street vendors, or even stay close to the slums when I am in Nigeria. That is me and I know a lot of others who do the same. I prefer to buy and eat in more established places or at least where I feel the most at ease and these places are typically run by the rich. So, again, this tax-break of yours which will end up extended majorly to companies run majorly by the rich will benefit the over 120 million Nigerians who are living in poverty situations how?

2. Tried and tested in a place that is like Nigeria or a place that is absolutely nothing like Nigeria is today?

malali:
➜Tax breaks incentives stimulate revenue generation when done properly. Thus stimulating the economy. If done over a few years.....you can slowly cut back on the tax breaks.

Your suggestion is that these Tax breaks be extended only to companies that serve visiting Nigerians— many of them probably owned and patronized by rich Nigerians—, ignoring the many other companies and businesses that the local Nigerians depend on and benefit from. That is how you properly stimulate the Nigerian economy?

malali:
➜You have a poverty mentality.....lol. The government can give the travelers vouchers. These vouchers can be redeemed in Nigerian businesses, hotels, restaurants, real estate any major purchase. The owners of these businesses can use it as tax credits to pay the government for taxes. Nobody is given physical cash. Learn to think outside the box....its okay to be broke, but don't have a poverty mentality, because even if you see an opportunity you wont recognize it.

Suggesting the extension of a limited tax break only to those companies patronized by visiting Nigerians is how you keep from not having this poverty mentality?

Subsidized with what money with over 140 million Nigerians at or below abject poverty levels already with no hope of a good Christmas?

➜I've come across too many believers online crying about their marriages, especially men who are seemingly interested in pleasing God. One of the huge red flags people don't deal with between themselves is keeping "close" friends of the opposite sex (as buddies; as in: as a man you have "close" female friends). That will most likely lead to emotional cheating sooner or later. And emotional cheating is like an early stage of infidelity and then divorce. I think many are always offended by this fact but it's very true. Above all, put Jesus first in all things. Repent, love him above all, obey him according to the new testament. He says he will honour, those who honour Him. And for those who are already in any type of mess, pray, repent, obey Jesus and then Have faith in God. He can do all things.
God bless

You believers no dey like talk true as per wetin dey do una. Believers dey cheat at the same rate and in many of the same ways that those outside of that circle do. What does that tell you of your claim to be a believer then? It should tell you that there are no advantages except for the ones you imagine in your mind.

➜I have this aunt who I recently started living with the family at Aba as a result of some life situations. Mind you, I’m an 18 years old boy. It’s months now and all I do basically is the domestic chores and cooking most times. My aunt isn’t making any effort to fix me up somewhere. A few job opportunities I managed to secure for myself where discouraged by her. I barely have time to go out on job hunting due to the heavy workload she gives me on daily basis and when I object, it becomes a big problem. I have repeatedly shared with her my concern to go back to school and possibly move into my own apartment, and these can’t really work out if I don’t have any tangible source of livelihood. Yet she sees no sense in what I say.
➜My 19th birthday is fast approaching, and I don’t have anything to hold unto. Seriously, I am fed up with this life pattern, and I do wish to take the bull by the horn this time. Please note, she doesn’t starve me, nor abusive me physically. However, the manners in which she talks and treats me most times make me feel like a stranger who isn’t welcome anymore. That attitude of her is really messing with my psychological wellbeing and I can’t deal with it anymore. Frankly, if I have my way, I would have left her house long time ago. But as it is now, I have nowhere or anyone who is comfortable enough to accept me into his/her home at the moment. I am tirelessly seeking for jobs that offer accommodation within and outside Aba but none is forth coming. What should I do at this juncture?

1. Where are your parents in all of this and what have they advised you to do, assuming you have informed them of your plan and of how your aunt discourages you from pursuing the few opportunities you say you have found?

2. Help us with more information.
➜What are the reasons your aunt has given you so far? Why does she prefer to sit back and wait rather than act now for yourself? You didn't tell us any of this.
➜ Does your aunt know and understand you wish to head back to school and are looking to work to pay the fees yourself?
➜ You need to sit down and talk eye to eye with your aunt so she comes to see that you are at that age where sitting back doing nothing is not working for you. I don't know how old she is but she needs to come to an understanding of this and only you can make her see this.

Is it normal, like I drink too much water...I can drink upto or more than 10 sachets everyday.....and I am really skinny....I always have the urge to always drink water...

Does water contain fat that you would think to indicate you are skinny? Anyways, drinking water is not bad so long as you do not end up drowning yourself with it.

➜I am frustrated in no small measure and I rightfully detest living in Nigeria and having to be under this government protection. What is the difference between what Thanos proposed in the popular MCU movie series to what this government is trying to achieve with their demonic policies?

You are fighting for you or for a multitude who see no reason to want to stand up for themselves when it matters?

➜I have already paid my dues so no. Let him stay there and get experience.

Oh, you no go stay but you go want make other people pikin dey in potential harm's way in the name of having him pay his dues?

I hope someone from the place where the kid was shipped would find this and start a movement to demand the kid be shipped back to his parents immediately. He is an intelligent kid but he also is potentially dangerous, according to his own parents.

1Sharon:
Poor kid They must have taken him to some remote village. Let him stay there for at least a year

Would you, knowing why he was "deported" by his parents, want to live in that same remote village with him?

How many has she empowered in Nigeria

Nigeria does not have any functioning nationally established food bank programs so they cannot carry out the same empowerment magic in Nigeria.

Karemarealty288:
➜The Coordinator of the Heart of Love Foundation, Pastor Tunde Obokhai, highlighted its achievements in fostering financial independence, spiritual growth, and renewed purpose among the elderly.
He said:
“We have empowered over 5,000 individuals through various initiatives, including skill acquisition programmes and material aid. The foundation has also played a crucial role in building a sense of community among the elderly by organising regular gatherings and activities, which provide opportunities for social interaction and emotional support.
“The impact of the Heart of Love Foundation has been profound. Many elderly individuals have shared testimonies of gratitude, describing how the support they received has helped them overcome challenges, improve their health, and live with dignity.”
As the foundation continues to expand its reach, it remains committed to its mission of empowering the elderly and making a positive difference in their lives.

The church empowered them— because they attend RCCG — by registering them to receive regular food aid from the established Food Bank programs that are in South Africa? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

➜You're making jest of what is making me cry, it's unfair. I'm not seeing myself as a saviour sir, but one of my dreams I have been craving for is seeing my family in a happy mode.
➜My family is my foundation. Have you thought of the joy someone can have traveling down home to meet his families with joy and happiness.
➜Not in the other way round whereby everyone is on Helter skelter.

1. I am not the one making jest of your background... you are. You pretend it is your place to change the reality for two grown individuals who with their own hands set up a family of their own and decided to have it the way it is today.

2. What if the way to meet that joy and happiness will only come when your father and mother go their separate ways? Will you accept it then?

3. Are they not helter-skelter as a result of their individual and personal choices?

Ayomide11111:
➜At least if I can be able to bring love and happiness to that family.

You see yourself as a savior to members of your family? Who gave you such a mission? Where you born into that role or something? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

SisterAnn:
➜To be a mom is one of the hardest tasks in life. People just see you dressed up and smiling but don't know your pains caring for the whole family and making sure everything is ok.
Moms must be super vigilant every minute because when something goes wrong,, you would be blamed without reservation.

To be a mum is not by force; it is a burden individuals choose for themselves. And rightly, if something goes wrong, the one to take the blame is the person who chose to take on the responsibility, to begin with.

Ayomide11111:
➜And adage says we are the writer of our lives but I don't want to say I miswrote mine in 2018.
I have always been on frying pan with my family and all my efforts to create love between my mom and dad were in vain. I have always been craving for an happy and joyful family in my life. Seeing my mom and dad laughing and kidding with us and maybe my wish is in my dream.
➜When I finished my OND program in Nov 2016 I decided to stayed in school with my few course mates because I knew if I come home I will never found joy. These few of my course mates are indigenes of Ijebu Igbo. And they love roaming about pointlessly and I dislike this useless doings. We will move from football field to gambling shop to Atéénu party and to where they never invited us. I dislike all these things but since I have no one to cling to or place to stay I have no choice to play along with them. They were even surprised founding me in their midst because I have my midst during program but my midst have gone to meet their own families.
...And this 2024 again, '24 is going and I have not make it to bring my family back to the way I want it. Even at my age now I have not make up to get a family. I want to be a responsible man to my wife and children.
I don't want my children to smell POV not to talk of VERTY. Working as security guard since 27yrs old to 33yrs old and still receiving insults and embarrassment from mere customers. Just because of a penny, another person's girlfriend pedicure and manicure... God when. Pls help me from above. I want a standard Life for my families God help

Why were you trying to shove your idea of happiness down the throats of your dad and your mom who from your narrative don't care for any of that, to begin with?

2. You want a standard life for a family you admit you are unable to afford at this point in time? Which God do you expect to help you and when do you expect him to do this for you?

Abbeyme:
➜Kids in "the abroad" feel so entitled.

He is a citizen therefore he is entitled by law to the very same rights that his parents have and desire for themselves. Nothing wrong with that at all!

Abbeyme:
➜I am sure he is emboldened by his former UK classmates. Dem get liver sha

So, what? Would you rather he cower like the kids in Africa who don't understand what it means to stand up and fight for their rights in all situations? Even before 14, he is already standing up against potential injustice served him by his own parents. Can you imagine this kind of human being turning out as one of the many Nigerian youths out there today who would rather lick the shoes of the criminal polithief-tians who destroy their lives and futures? Of course not!

CodeTemplarr:
Endtime children.

You would rather children remain like all those in Nigeria who would rather cower in fear waiting their turn to serve the very politicians who destroy their lives?

decatalyst:
Nah God go bless that judge for me! Imagine a 14 year old having the gut to want to put his parents in trouble. They should never let him have access to international passport until he is 18years and his brain done reset.

You can immediately tell those who didn't read the story well.

Abbeyme:
Rebecca Foulkes, representing the boy’s father, mentioned that social workers had reported issues in managing the boy’s behaviour before he left the UK.
They noted instances of physical aggression from the mother when trying to manage his behaviour.
Foulkes also shared that the boy had frequently been late to class, stayed out late, and had been suspected of engaging in criminal activities. The school had concerns about his social vulnerability and had observed him with expensive clothes and phones, while his phone contained pictures of knives and friends holding knives. Foulkes stated that from the father’s perspective, there had been a clear deterioration in the boy’s behaviour, leaning toward criminal activities. She argued that the boy’s parents had “real concerns about where he was and who he was with.”
Foulkes further stated that, in her view, “high-quality care and education in a boundary setting” was available in Africa, where the risks the boy faced in the UK were not present. She believed that the boy’s potential would be wasted if he were to return to the UK.
The court also heard that the parents’ decision should be respected, as it was made in their son’s best interest, even if it did not align with his wishes.
The hearing before Mr. Justice Hayden is set to continue at a later date.

The boy's parents rather than send him to a correctional center chose to send him to Africa, as though Africa is some sort of dumping ground for kids with potentially criminal mindsets. If that boy ends up joining a cult(or maybe even heading one wherever he was deployed) it means the parents get to remain safe and removed from it all while all his victims in Africa end up the ones suffering.

ZaRuleOfLaw:
➜The boy na clown 🤡🤡 So I will consult pikin wey I dey feed before making the decision for him? What now makes him a minor?Europeans are digging a big grave for their civilization this time & they won't recover

Yes, the parents ought to have consulted with the boy before shipping him off to a foreign land, after all, he is a citizen just as they ar,e and by law, no citizen has the right to force a situation on another. Second, the boy is better off back in the UK where the system is better equipped to handle potential criminal elements such as he is described by his parents. Africa does not need any more criminal elements.

➜I feel your pain something similar happened to me And when I finally forgave him, he died 2 days later. Please note he wasn’t sick I just didn’t know the man reduced his age to get a job, he was 10 years older and it didn’t show. Moral of the story, let go and spoil both parents because very soon they won’t be there for you to spoil.

This story of yours is very useless to this! What if you had died as a result of the neglect from your papa— or whatever it was he might have done to you in your past to incur your wrath—, would you be here telling us this useless story of yours? 🙄

I mean... are you trying to get us to believe that because he died 2 days after he was finally forgiven by you for the wrong he did to you it somehow changes the fact that he did not wrong which you held against him all that long has been reduced to nothing? Why una dey think like...

➜Oga forget OP what am telling u is the importance of dream and reality it is but u claim it's connect with taught and not real . So that's the point am telling u . .fine all dreams might not come to past but yet many too will come to past. That's what am telling you 📍

You made no such point though! All you have made attempts to do is claim that your particular dreams had some spiritual/God flavor to them when in fact they read more like a disconnected mesh which is typical of most all dreams. All of that disconnected web is what is typical of most dreams.

To have us believe that those particular dream products of yours —no different from all of the others including the one I had — had a divine tinge or angle, you would need to provide more proof than what you cooked up so far.
