Americans don't kill immigrants in their country. Canadians don't kill undocumented immigrants in their country.

Germany has millions of immigrants. They would rather find every legal means to send them back to their home country than kill them.

We have millions of Togolese people in Nigeria, and we didn't kill them.

One of the biggest South African investments in Nigeria is MTN and DStv, yet we didn't flood the streets of Lagos with "Boycott MTN."

These lazy people have killed other people's breadwinners out of jealousy, yet they claim they are taking their jobs.


They most loss that match o

The federal government is not responsible for water supply in cities and towns. This is the responsibility of states.

I want southafrica to loss at all cost.

Kaa4:
This is beautiful for them. That initial lack of support was distracting. At least for now, they will play the next match and hope to meet their jobs at home before foreigners take everything.

They tried.

Number 9 is the best for me. Be excellent at whatever you do .

so rich people self they do this thing

Move to PH or Delta State( Warri or abraka) Thank me later

I'm based in Lagos , but the number of clients i get from those region is massive, every year i always find myself going to PH.

TechToyin:
Hello everyone,

I’ll be turning 25 in July, and as I approach this milestone, I’ve been thinking seriously about my next big step in life.

I currently live in Kaduna with my parents and have a stable, comfortable life. I work as a teacher and also earn additional income from research writing and occasional website development gigs. I hold a Second Class Upper (2:1) degree in Biochemistry and consider myself fairly tech-savvy.

Lately, I’ve been feeling that it’s time to challenge myself and pursue bigger opportunities. Lagos keeps coming to mind because of the career prospects, networking opportunities, and the fast-paced environment that seems ideal for personal and professional growth.

My biggest challenge is accommodation. I don't currently have a place to stay in Lagos, and that uncertainty is making the decision difficult.

For those who have made a similar move, especially from northern Nigeria to Lagos, would you advise taking the leap? How did you handle accommodation and the initial transition? Do you think moving to Lagos could be a worthwhile investment in my future?

I’m considering making this move as a birthday gift to myself and would really appreciate your advice, experiences, and suggestions.

Thank you.

I bet it won't ast 1 year

Attaching Christianity with Israel is so counterintuitive. They hate you as a Christian.

Adakintroy:
Isreal chill. As far as the middle east goes everybody that's is not you are ur greatest enemy.

Make we find solution. As christian I support you. But as oil price no get religion. Make we find solution .

so please when can we start our relationship . don't worry you don't have to cook as i don't have teeth anymore

Afrah04:
if you say so, then

I'll be 96 next month, how old do you want it

Afrah04:
yes but, I sense lies in this age of your's, come clean I don't discriminate

Please i'm 95 years old , can we connect ?

Afrah04:
Yes I said it, I like older men and the peace they bring, as a teenager and now am 20, my orientation hasn't changed. Have I been with younger guys? Yes. Aside their active rods there way of reasoning is annoying. Older men don't stop a girl by the road or treat her silly; very generous and matured. And when am talking about older am referring men from their 40s to their hundreds... Married or unmarried, gbewa jor.

I run a business too and I know how it feels, I'm not talking about GUO , i'm talking about bigger companies like the banks declaring billions in profit but paying token, there many companies like that .

They setup a seperate recruiting company and bring you in as casual staff just to pay peanut

Dalohad:
How do you measure 'big companies'. Is it by the volume of customer base, the money they make in a year (which you think is billions in your imagination), or the popularity of their name.

Do you know if the 'big' company is servicing debts, distressed or cutting expenses just to stay afloat?

Do you know if they have spent billions acquiring another company and expected to run at a loss for the next 5 years, before they can break even and make their first 1 kobo profit? How about losing a good chunk of their customer base and top talents to new competitors?

Listen, if you have never run a company of your own and paid salaries for at least 3 years, I cannot respect that person's opinion on business management.

I have ran businesses and paid salaries for 13 years. It is like going to war.

No be lie. I really think Fed needs to look into salary scale especially for this big companies like banks and other established companies , you can't be making millions and be paying people salary that can't take them home

Opmic:
Even some POS stand jobs now pay 80k to 100K

May almighty God blessing you for putting this out ... that is one big eye opener for me

mrvitalis:
People don’t understand the impact of all the unviable road projects and rail projects APC have been borrowing to do since 2015 … they would keep making us poorer as a people by devaluing naira

They tell you naira is falling because we import too much , lol we don’t even import Enough

If you look at Nigeria trade balance since 2015 it’s positive 70% of the years and positive cumulatively

So why then is naira falling ? Infrastructure done with borrow money …. How ?

You borrow money to build a road that can’t generate money to pay back , when it’s time to service debt you print money enter the forex market and boom naira supply increase dollar supply remain same

In naira Nigerians earn far more than 2015 but it’s worth far less

I always urge Nigerians go and watch obi n osibanjo debate in 2019 that’s where APC policy is exposed and where Obi won me over 100%

Listen ,research and learn

Soon if we continue like this minimum wage would be 1 million but would be worth less than 70k today

So everybody that has had accident in the past doesn't believe in Jesus

saintkel:
Just laughing....unless u r not a child of God and u do not believe in d power of Jesus....if u do...na to even change gear de sleep ur thing de go....nothing de happen

That number is huge to be honestly. If you must migrate, do it legally

If you marry another wife and her children doesn't look like you nko?

How can you open your mouth to say your wife is not beautiful

South Africa is one country I can never visit, I don't usually think about it as a country until i see them on news. Like this morning when i woke up, I've thought of going to Ghana or Rwanda for vacation, south Africa didn't even cross my mind. I've also thought of China this morning.

I really don't know what people are looking for in that country. Maybe I just don't priorities money over happiness

They know what to do , they won't just do it. Their gods needs blood of the masses

Justicemelvin:
Na now dey break. Yeye pple

The ladies knows, but they like toxic relationship

brain54:
I'm a man and personally if I block a girl I'm dating from entering my home...


It means I do not love or value her. I don't even respect her. Simple.



There is a way I would convey my feelings to her if I'm unsatisfied about her sudden appearance. They are ways to handle such... respectfully.


People think differently I agree. But if I stand at my door and prevent you from entering just know that it's time for you to move on even if I haven't told you so orally.


It's even difficult for me to threat someone I'm not dating that way!

What product are you selling bro

Zee0007:
God when? Even 1 thousand naira I no get for account but see person net worth. Kai! When will I boast of even 100k naira for account?

anything you do , don't stop dreaming

Sonofgod1990:
He's not advertising it for the poor.
2.8 million dollar is not much for the property. Just that you don't have the money


I'm getting a property for my in-law there. I have called ovia already

My brother what can we do? see how they are syphoning money to our face. 10 billion as how now ? have you set up 100 million for the kidnaped ibadan student, Have placed 50million bounty on kidnapers? Have you setup 1billion naira security fund for teams that would get them back home ?

omo!!!

ndudiogeleka:
They quickly set up 10billion for their cronies to share by forming task force but a critical insecurity issue is there no action nor task force ..

Have you heard of boredom ?

brain54:
I wonder why grown ass men would lift pictures from the Internet and create tales from it...

Get a better job, PR for APC is not cool

helinues:
The 2027 election will be so soft like pap as it's one way direction

Nigerians don't have any issue with replacing president, but make opposition sha no mention Atiku or Obi as the replacement cos they might see the other side of the Nigerians

They can only say that to gullible Nigerians , the first person in the picture is Dangote, that is a private jet way back before people can even afford to own a car... the private jet has datata boldly written on it.

Even Otedola's father was former Lagos state governor

Emeskhalifa:
Exactly but anytime they want to do awon motivational speaker, they will start telling us of how they started from the scratch with nothing

Africa self , not west Africa, I read somewhere that his grandfather was the first man in Africa to deposit 1million naira in the Nigerian bank

Emeskhalifa:
Na so your friend Dangote told us he started from scratch

Person wey hin granpa was the richest man in West Africa as of their time

Allow them , they are adults. I only pity the innocent citizens

You are right, but I've noticed one thing in relationship, if your friends and family talk down about someone you want to marry, it could affect your judgment to a great extent. But lets face it , there's no perfect human anywhere, no perfect marriage also. In fact, marriage is all about fight and unlimited forgiveness.

intruder15:
Your tale is quite different. In your case, you ended the relationship due to family pressure. In his case, he is acting like a control freak. My guess is that he hasn't done a 9 to 5 job. If he has, he will know that some companies are very dramatic to approve leave in December.

Irrespective, he is acting like her opinion doesn't count which is a very big red flag. Even if she forgives him and moves on with him, she will see premium tears in the marriage.

So, family's myopic mindset can affect his thinking.

I'll share a quick story of my own similar situation.

Some years ago, when I was still a Muslim, I wanted to marry a Christian lady. She was everything a man could pray for in a woman. Since I wasn't deeply grounded in Islam, I decided to explore Christianity. But coming from a Muslim home, you have to ease into it because telling a Muslim family that you're becoming a Christian can be very risky.

Ironically, my mother would occasionally visit churches whenever she heard about a pastor performing miracles, but my late father and my four elder sisters are deep Muslim.

Back to the story. I loved this lady dearly. I was her first boyfriend. She was an accounting graduate, had a good job, was beautiful, decent, and a devoted MFM member. She introduced me to her church, and I loved it. For the first time, I found a way to pray to God without feeling burdened by ablution. In Islam, you must perform ablution and maintain your prayers consistently before feeling worthy enough to ask God for anything. But in Christianity, I felt I could simply pray, and I felt fulfilled. I was ready to become a Christian and marry her.

At the time, my mother lived with me. She knew this lady was good for me. She knew I loved her. Yet she decided to play the religion card.

Once the family heard I was planning to marry a Christian, everything changed. Even my younger brother, who hadn't stepped into a mosque in five years, suddenly remembered he was a Muslim. Everyone turned against me, and in no time, I had to let the lady go.

It broke me.

She got married about a year later, while I spent several years without another relationship. I made sure I became a full Christian. If for no other reason, it was partly to prove a point to my family: I may not have married her, but here I am; a Christian. Do your worst.

Then something interesting happened.

About two to three years later, when I still hadn't brought another woman home, my mother started telling me almost every day how much she regretted letting that Christian lady go. She would sing her praises, talk about how good she was, and remind me what a decent woman my Christian ex girlfriend had been.

That is family for you.

Would you blame me for ending the relationship, or would you blame my family?

The lady had already seen all the signs that my family didn't welcome her, yet about three years later, the same people wished they had acted differently.

What I learned from that experience is that families sometimes care so much about us that they begin to see us as a prize that can always attract a better bidder. It's like owning a precious stone you think is worth ₦100,000. Then someone comes along and offers ₦500,000. Suddenly, everyone around you starts insisting it's worth ₦1 million.

So my advice to you is this: if your fiancé doesn't share that same myopic mindset, you may want to reconsider the marriage before making a final decision.

AdisGlobal01:
SHE_NEEDS_YOUR_ADVICE

My wedding was scheduled for March this year, but everything changed after my fiancé's father passed away unexpectedly in November.

His funeral was held just three weeks later, in December. I genuinely wanted to attend, but there was one major problem: my employer had a strict policy against granting leave during the December holiday period. When I accepted the job, this condition was clearly stated. Despite explaining my situation and pleading for an exception, my request was denied.

I informed my fiancé immediately. At first, he appeared understanding. I even contributed financially to support the funeral arrangements.

Then his mother called.

She told me that if I truly wanted to become part of their family, I had to be physically present at her husband's funeral. I tried explaining my circumstances, but she ended the call before I could finish.

When I called my fiancé afterward, I expected him to stand by me. Instead, he asked:

"If it were your own father, wouldn't you find a way to attend?"

I explained that the situations were different because my employer might make an exception if it were my immediate family member.

That was when he dropped the bombshell:

"No presence. No wedding."

I thought grief was speaking. I thought time would calm him down.

I was wrong.

The wedding was officially cancelled.

My family tried everything to reconcile the situation, but his family refused every attempt. Eventually, my father advised me to accept the loss and move forward with my life.

It broke me, but I did.

Months passed.

Then, on May 20th, my ex-fiancé called me.

What he said left me speechless.

According to him, I had failed the test of being a good wife because I stopped trying to convince his family after the wedding was cancelled. He said a "real wife" would have kept begging until she was accepted.

Then he announced that he had "forgiven" me.

Not only that, he had already chosen a new wedding date in August and expected me to start preparing immediately.

As if the breakup had never happened.

As if my feelings didn't matter.

As if he alone had the authority to decide when a relationship ends—and when it resumes.

Without hesitation, I told him I was no longer interested.

His response shocked me even more.

He said:

"I'm not done. You don't have the right to be done."

I blocked his number immediately.

But that wasn't the end.

A few days later, he appeared at my father's house carrying the bride price and all the marriage items he had previously rejected.

My father told him clearly:

"My daughter has moved on. As far as this family is concerned, she is no longer available."

Still, he refused to accept it.

Since then, he and his mother have continued calling, visiting, and pressuring both me and my family despite my repeated refusal.

Now I'm beginning to wonder:

Is this really about love, or is there something deeper behind their sudden determination?

What troubles me most is the mindset that someone can cancel a wedding, disappear for months, return when it suits them, and expect another person to simply obey.

I am now considering legal action because the constant calls, visits, and refusal to respect my decision are becoming disturbing.

My question is:

If someone ends a relationship, then later decides to "forgive" you and resume the wedding without your consent, would you see that as love... or as a dangerous sense of entitlement?

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Foreign companies keep making huge monies from Nigeria, since the government won't fund small scale business to grow into large scale.
