stephenmorris: A LION IN THE NORTH SEA: THE BATTLE FOR CHEVRON NETHERLANDS
It was October 2013, two years had passed since I had left the family business in Lagos, Nigeria and moved to London, England to start my own oil trading company. My time in the family business, as a director in the telecoms division and upstream oil & gas company was challenging to say the least but engaging and ultimately rewarding. However, I have never felt comfortable with sitting back and getting a golden pass through life. Whilst the easy thing to do was to be a “good boy and good son” and enjoy all the luxuries of being in a family business – I decided that striking it out on my own once again was the best course of action.
I’ve always loved the oil & gas business, like many other Nigerians. However, what I love about the business, particularly the exploration and production (upstream) side, was the mixture of strategy, operational capability, technical know-how, politics and business acumen which all had to be married with a gambling spirit and sheer luck to be successful. In my decision to move to London, I decided I would only be in the oil & gas business as long as it didn’t pose a direct conflict to the family’s interests. There is striking it out on your own and then there is just being plain foolish. Luckily for me, I had stopped being foolish by then.
The modus operandi of my oil trading business was simple. I kept an office in Lagos with a small team of five to run operations and logistics. I converted one of the bedrooms in my townhouse in London into a study. My team in Lagos under my guidance would get oil trading contracts and I, sitting in London, would either market these contracts to the global oil trading houses to execute in Nigeria on a joint venture (JV) basis or in some instances, I would find the capital to execute the contract from end to end. This formula proved effective and it was good enough to pay my bills and afford me an above modest lifestyle.
One of the traits I took from my parents is that I am highly ambitious and find it hard to sit still. There always has to be a new conquest, a new mountain to climb, or, as is the case most times, a new business to go after. Oil trading was my day job but was never exciting to me except for when I got paid. After days and weeks in London plotting my next move, I came up with an idea and a plan. In the world of upstream oil & gas, especially in Africa, companies that were operators, actively producing oil & gas in commercial quantities that wanted to invest or participate in the oil business were the darlings of the industry. They were like the prettiest girl in high school and every guy wanted her to come to the prom with him.
Most of the oil producing nations in sub-Saharan Africa such as Nigeria, Angola, and Equatorial Guinea would always require any investor into oil & gas assets in their country to either be an oil & gas operator with production on stream or be partnered with an operator, deemed a “technical partner”. This logic makes sense. If you are going to buy prized national assets, you should have the know how to develop and operate them or at least be partnered with an entity that does. I decided that I was going to use a Trojan Horse strategy. I had read ancient Greek literature when I’d attended military academy in Texas and it served as inspiration. I would acquire an oil & gas operating company in Europe (the Trojan Horse), where the political barriers and costs to entry in comparison to Africa would be significantly lower. I would then use this newly acquired company, which would now be of Afro-European in heritage, to become a technical partner to many local and international investors in the upstream oil & gas business in Africa. This company would be the first of its kind and likely the most sought-after oil & gas company on the African continent because of its unique DNA and ownership. After thinking of this idea, I took myself out to a bar a few blocks from my house and ordered myself a nice strong drink. I felt like a genius.
I registered a new upstream oil & gas investment company offshore and called it, The Catalan Corporation. The name didn’t really have a meaning, it just sounded nice and had a confident, stately demeanour to it. To keep costs at a minimum, I decided to put together an advisory board that consisted of Vance Querio, the COO of Addax Petroleum at the time and an industry professional and my mentor (who will remain nameless for good reason), one of Africa’s biggest business giants. Vance was all too happy to join and signed on quickly. I called my mentor and before signing on, he wanted a face to face meeting for me to explain my plan and ambitions for Catalan. He asked me to meet him in the early spring of 2014 at a health spa in a small Swiss village outside of Zurich. I have to admit the drive from Zurich to this little village tucked within the Swiss mountains still remains one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. The spring sun had begun to melt the snow on the mountains and in the distance; you could see the melting snow turn into giant waterfalls pouring off the mountains. It was like an oil painting come to life.
I eventually met with my mentor and after explaining my idea to him and that him being on my advisory board would not only give my burgeoning company credibility but help us raise cash, he agreed in totality and went further to tell me that I should tell anyone and everyone that he was not only on board but was going to give our company his full support. We drank some tea together and the next morning I was off back to London. My little plan for Africa oil & gas was coming together, finally put into action by two African men in a Swiss village. You couldn’t make this stuff up.
On the plane flying back to London from Zurich, even though I had just gotten my mentor on board, I felt that there was someone missing. A few years prior I was the spearhead of my family’s acquisition drive for OML 30 (this is another whole story in itself), one of Shell Nigeria’s most lucrative oil blocks that was up for sale, I met a brilliant English banker named Edgar. Edgar had more than 30 years of oil & gas operations and finance experience. He was respected by the industry on a global basis and having him on board would be the final piece in the puzzle, the icing on the cake. I called Edgar immediately I landed and asked if we could meet for lunch, my treat as always.
I pitched Catalan to Edgar and how if we pulled this off it would be the grandest of coups. Edgar was highly intrigued but stated that he wanted hard cash upfront from the onset. Whilst the others were all too eager to come on board and make their money via sweat equity or cash incentives when we had a target company in our sights, Edgar wanted to be paid money and a substantial amount before putting pen to paper. I was confused by his behaviour. I told him who the others were that were on Catalan’s advisory board but he wasn’t having it, either he would be paid his princely sum to attach his name to Catalan or no deal. I was 29 at the time and was still head-strong and prideful. How could this guy develop such an attitude? I thought we were friends. I suppose Edgar knew his value and wasn’t going to mortgage it on a promise of monies at a later date. As much as he liked my Trojan Horse idea, he just happened to like money more. I balked at his request in annoyance. I paid for lunch, told him no way, and stormed off home. This was a big mistake on my part that would rear its ugly head later.
I appointed two of my most trusted confidants as directors in Catalan and with that the company was set to go. I designed the logo for Catalan – a coat of arms with a cross in the middle. I am after all a devout Catholic and a strong believer in God, so why not have my faith represented on my company logo? I then called my friend Nicolas Lavrov, a web and graphics designer and over the course of a week we put together a sleek and polished company profile which me, my directors and advisory board began emailing out to interested parties. A few weeks later, I got an email from Richard Kent of Jeffries. Jeffries are an investment bank that work closely with multi-national oil companies (the majors) on the acquisition or divestment of oil & gas assets on a worldwide basis. Richard had gotten a copy of my company profile and wanted to have a meeting. I wore one of my finest suits and hopped into a taxi to his offices in London City.
Richard and I talked extensively about my background and my ambitions for Catalan. I explained to him the type of company we were looking to acquire, ideally an oil & gas company in Europe, preferably operating out of the North Sea with a strong daily production and enough reserves to warrant further investment in development. I also told Richard how much we would be ready to spend for the first acquisition – between USD 50 million and USD 100 million. We would finance our acquisition via reserve based lending and would likely raise cash equity of thirty percent of our purchase price with a Bank raising debt of seventy percent to help the balance of the purchase price. I had described the “goldilocks” company Catalan needed to acquire. With that said, Richard told me to give him some time to find the best deal for Catalan.
A few weeks later Richard called me, “I have the perfect deal for you Paddy!” US oil giant, Chevron, had decided to sell their entire upstream, exploration and production business in the Netherlands and had appointed Jeffries to manage a bid process for the sale of Chevron Netherlands. The sale included their production platforms in the North Sea off the Dutch coast, their office buildings, around a thousand or so native Dutch staff, and their crude and gas pipeline evacuation infrastructure. Even the Chevron coffee and tea mugs were part of the sale. Richard was right, this deal was perfect and the ideal Trojan Horse with which to enter the Africa oil & gas terrain with from Europe. He informed me that this would be a competitive bid against other companies to acquire Chevron but thought that Catalan and I stood a good chance. I told him I was interested and that he should send all the necessary paperwork over. Something within me believed I was going to win this bid and with that in mind I was going to throw everything at it. If I won this bid, I thought, there would be stories written about me for a long time to come.
Chevron are by nature, prudently selective with which companies they invite to bid. So the fact that Catalan was chosen was a big deal to me. I felt like for once in my 29 years, I wasn’t being judged solely by my last name but for my skill, merits and ability. I got the first bits of information from Chevron on their Netherlands assets and I began putting together a team of hired hands to act as my management team for Catalan’s bid. I appointed Dutch law firm DeBrauw as my lawyers, Canadian firm Canaccord Genuity as my finance managers, RPS Energy as my technical managers, and Moore Stephens as my accountants. I informed Chevron of my management team and they asked for a few weeks to open the data room and kick off the bid.
Whilst Catalan and its hired management team waited on Chevron, I decided to be pro-active. From previous my experience with OML 30, not engaging government regulators enough could prove to be unwise. I decided that I needed to meet with the government body in the Netherlands responsible for managing their oil & gas affairs. After all I was a young Nigerian man, trying to buy prized, national Dutch assets. I, more than anyone, needed to be ten steps ahead at any given time. My lawyers put me in touch with Jan-Dirk Bokhoven, the managing director at the time of the Dutch state-owned oil company, EBN. Jan-Dirk and I spoke on the phone and agreed a date to meet at EBN’s head office in Utrecht, a one-hour drive or so outside of Amsterdam.
LaudateII: Beautiful!Awesome! Those were the first words that crossed my mind, when I read this article. The next was "audacious." Paddy Adenuga has shared his thoughts, in a way that grips the senses and makes it difficult for you to look away. I would like to see this story made into a movie or at worst, a documentary, because there are too many valuable lessons in it.
1). It is not enough to dream, you must also 'do': Vision is what gives rise to action. And action is what gives birth to change. Too many of us dream of how to do something different, or make something great. Very few of us actually take the plunge. Paddy had an idea, and he took steps to make it happen. So many people have a dream, but do not know how to go about actualising it. Paddy had a dream, then he formed a plan, put up a structure, built a financial base, got the right people and executed it.
2). Money answereth most, (not all) things: Yes, one might have money, but if such funds are not deployed in a productive venture or in a fruitful manner, in the right way, at the right place, into the right endeavour, then such funds would never add any benefit to its' owner. It would dwindle, and eventually get frittered away. Too many rich kids live lives of opulence with zero sense of direction. It is critical to know when and how to throw the right sum of money into a good venture, in order to make it profitable.
Money, no matter how much it is, is certainly not a substitute for skill, expertise, hard work or talent. Money in the wrong hands could even become a destructive force, if the owner does not know what to do with it. Money could also prevent a person from thinking clearly, if it is allowed to cloud the senses. It is also critical to know exactly when to stop throwing good money after bad, and when to cut your losses and walk away.
3). A financial war chest is a great asset, but not a substitute for homework: Some dreams won't come true, unless you have the money to bring them to reality. As stated earlier, it is not just the cash that matters, but the work you put in to ensure that money makes things happen for you, or creates opportunities that work in your favour, or help you accomplish your tasks. There is an old saying that goes this way - "Take what you want from life, but make sure to pay for it." Paddy had a war chest of 50 million USD. It made everyone sit up, and take him seriously.
But the most important bit, was that Paddy did his homework thoroughly. He researched the company he wanted to buy inside out, he contacted movers and shakers that could influence the bid outcome, and persuaded his competitors to become his partners. Compare this to the DISCOs who bought over electricity firms in the country, and started crying about how indebted those firms were, the day after they had bought them. They even went back to govt to beg for more money at the end of the day.
4). Prepare, Collaborate - always get the best talent and reward them: In setting up Catalan, Paddy didn't look towards his clique, lineage, colour or ethnic group, but sourced for those with the right skills, the right aptitude, intelligence, talent and experience, who could contribute meaningfully to his endeavour, and brought them on board. He avoided mediocres. Only those who knew their stuff got on his team. One man does not make a forest.
He surrounded himself with valuable sources of experience in the form of his mentor, his advisers etc., and reached across global distances to form alliances, even with those who initially competed against him. In Nigeria, we like to do things alone and this sometimes takes a huge toll on us. In many places here, collaboration is almost like a dirty word...and many of us, don't listen to good advice. Too many folks often think they know it all.
5). Aim high, stake big: Paddy sought for the best deal for his company. He didn't think small. Another person might have seen the Chevron Netherlands acquisition, as too big a deal, to even touch. But for Paddy, it was the perfect vehicle to launch his vision. He didn't think it was too far-fetched for a young African boy, to make a bid for the Dutch subsidiary of one of the world's most successful oil companies - Chevron. Paddy had what they called 'chutzpah,' the Hebrew word for confidence and audacity.
6). Choose the right strategy, and listen to your instincts: When the power play started, Paddy had to change his strategy. He applied native wisdom to his tactics. First, when someone on the team of his competitors was becoming an obstacle to his plans, he fired off an explosive e-mail to his partners, that upset the apple cart. In the ensuing scramble to unravel the subsequent chain of events, his greatest stumbling block on the opposing team called Alex, played right into his hands.
Sometimes all the best advice in the world, might go against your gut instinct. What do you do? That is the million dollar question. It takes years of practice and sequence of events, to learn how to distinguish between the right gut instinct, and the wrong ones. Paddy made a few right calls when he followed his instincts, initially. But when he failed to go with his instincts, that one time - he lost.
7). Divine intervention has a part to play: Each time he was at a cross road, Paddy prayed. And somehow, answers came. He knew he didn't have all the answers so he trusted the Creator to step into the situation, and make things work out in his favour. Yet, in one instance he actually overlooked one of the answers sent to him by God, when he ignored Remi, an old friend who actually had the right keys to his puzzle. And it cost him big time, at the end of the day.
There are too many lessons to be learnt from this story, and I do hope that one day, Paddy would launch another bid for a global oil firm . I believe his next venture would be successful. Why? He has gone through a difficult baptism, and has learnt too many valuable lessons in how NOT to fail again, in a business deal. They don't teach such things in Harvard Business School.
Letenwam: Zinox Group, one of Africa’s biggest technology group has acquired e-commerce platform, Konga.com which remains one of the biggest players in the sector; KOS-Express, the world class logistics arm of the business and KongaPay, the company’s integrated mobile money payment channel with over 100,000 subscribers.
The landmark deal approved by Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is expected to raise the profile of e-commerce in the country.
Industry analysts estimate that the acquisition could lead to the integration of Konga and Yudala, which is owned by Chairman Zinox Group, Mr. Leo Stan Ekeh's son, to wade off competition and make it one of biggest e-Commerce companies in Africa.
Head of Corporate Communications, Zinox Group, Mr. Gideon Ayogu confirmed the development, said;
“Konga is a world-class, professionally-run company whose landmark strides in the sector has gone a long way in ushering millions of Nigerians into the ease and convenience of online shopping and boosting the conduct of e-commerce in the country.”
He added: “Today, many Nigerians can attribute their first experience of e-commerce to Konga.com and we are excited to be a part of this remarkable story.
“Many shoppers can also attest to the speed and efficiency in delivery that characterizes Kos-Express, the company’s logistics arm, which is arguably the best in the sector at the moment.
“Our ambition is to up the tempo by revolutionising e-commerce on the African continent, with Konga at the fore-front of this initiative. In addition to positioning the business on a path of profitability in the short term, our long term plans are focused around seeing Konga well established in other African capitals.
“Furthermore, we will be unveiling a lot of new initiatives soon and we advise shoppers and merchants alike to look out for these innovations which will radically reshape the average customer experience of e-commerce in Nigeria and on the continent.”
ZirdoRoray: It is a simpu sturv. She may be saying the truth but:
1. Dorcas Shola Fapson is known to be very emotionally unstable. She herself has talked and given interviews of wanting to commit Suicide several times. You can look it up online. She is emotionally disturbed and needs validation that's why she is doing this. I'm sure she has been raped before and probably didn't get justice so she wants to vent her emotions on this innocent man. I'm sure she probably hates men very much- look how terribly she lied against MC Galaxy, almost everyone knew she was lying then.
2. She had a pepper spray on her which supports my point above of her been raped before. A) Which woman in Nigeria carries pepper spray around if they have not been a victim of multiple rapes before? B) Which woman in Nigeria carries pepper spray around if they are not chronic night-crawlers and prostitutes?
3.) The driver is registered with a company that has his full information. Why would he engage in crimes even at work when he has so much to lose? Any crime he does during a drop can easily be traced to him. In fact even if he doesn't commit a crime during the drop as long as he was the last driver to drive the passenger, he will be questioned by the police if anything happens to client after successfully dropping off the passenger.
4.) She is acelebrity and probably looking to trend. So it's merely his word against hers.
5.) The video is clearly edited. More so someone was trying to rape (FORCE HIMSELF) on you and you were able to TAKE a video. You must be very powerful!
6.) The driver according to story has witnesses to corroborate his side of the narration at the site of the incidence. The people who resuscitated him after she pepper-sprayed him at the site of the incidence will prove me right that she didn't scream rape which is evidenced in the video.
7.) Celebrities are known for their drug culture.She should be taken for a drug analysis test because she must have been under the influence of a drug she self-medicated to not be able to give coherent details of the incident which she know will go a long way in ensuring justice. It's either that or she is lying.
8.) It's a planned publicity stunt.
^^^^^ ^^^^^ Shola never said she was raped by the Taxify driver... or ever in life!
Again, there have been several cases where Uber drivers sexually assaulted female passengers abroad!
A lot of women in urban areas in Nigeria and abroad carry pepper sprays or portable stun guns now.
FlirtyKaren: Shuga actress Dorcas Shola Fapson has released videos that seem to prove Taxify driver she accused of abduction and attempted rape lied in his response to her allegation.
The Taxify driver, Henry Nnaemeka, in his reply, denied Dorcas' story, claimed he is no kidnapper nor rapist and that it was Dorcas Shola Fapson who attacked him when he refused to take her on her trip.
Not happy one bit that Henry Nnaemeka would dare lie against her, Dorcas has now released videos that show him lock her up in his car and taking her to a house against her will.
Press play to watch the video obtained by Lailasnews.com:
sceneonetv: Singer, Simi has also reacted to Dorcas alleged kidnap/rape issue.. The singer has bashed folks especially ladies who are criticizing Dorcas even after she released evidences, that showed an “alleged attack”.
Simi tagged these set of folks as “people with bullshit mentality”. Here’s what she wrote;
laidelaitan: Pastor’s wife who sent her nudes to Church’s WhatsApp group, attempts suicide
Osofo Maame, the wife of Ghanaian pastor who mistakenly sent her nudes to members of her church via WhatsApp, has reportedly attempted suicide out of embarrassment.
According to Mynewgh, Maame, who has become a subject of public discussion, especially among members of the husband’s church, was reported to have tried drinking a liquid poisonous substance, but was stopped by her family members.
According to information gathered by mandynews.com, the woman in her mid-30s who is nursing a 6-month-old baby, intended to send the pictures to her husband who was on a trip outside the country only for it to be mistakenly sent to the church group.
The Nigeria oil and gas industry recorded another milestone as the the $3.3 billion Egina Floating Production Storage Offloading (FPSO) vessel arrived in Lagos Nigeria from South Korea for oil production from the $16 billion 200,000 barrels per day capacity Egina deepwater oilfield Located in the Oil Mining Lease (OML) 130 offshore.
The vessel arrived at the Samsung Yard (SHI-MCI FZE quayside) in Lagos on Tuesday.
The FPSO, which was built by Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI), sailed away from the quay side at Samsung Yard in Geoje, South Korea, on October 31, 2017, on its long anticipated journey to Nigeria, which was initially estimated to last for 90 days.
The Egina oilfield, which will add 200,000 barrels per day of crude oil to Nigeria’s daily production when it comes on stream by the end of 2018, is being developed by Total Upstream Nigeria Limited (TUPNL) at the cost of $16 billion.
Egina FPSO is a giant oil production ship operated by Total for the production of crude from its Egina oil field deep offshore Nigeria. The vessel, which left South Korea on October 31, last year, is in Lagos for further integration of its six topsides at LADOL Free Trade Zone, Tarkwa Bay, Lagos. The vessel had sailed for three months.
The Egina FPSO has a storage capacity of 2.2 million barrels of crude oil and a daily production of 108,000 barrels per day capacity. It is 35 meters high, 330 meters long, with a flare boom that is 100 meters high just as it has capacity to accommodate 200 people at a time.
Crude oil and gas is still relevant if properly diversified. As of now, oil and gas potentials have not been fully maximize especially in the multi trillion dollar petrochemical industry...!
For Android phones (and tablets, for that matter), Google created a Find My Device utility (google.com/android/find). If your phone is connected to the Internet and the thief has not logged out of your account yet, this tool can help you track the phone. Additionally, you can remotely wipe all the data from your phone or trigger a sound alarm. You have to act fast though, before the perpetrator get the opportunity to log out of your account. If you do not act fast enough, there is a last resort option of checking out the last location your phone has been seen at. Go to Google Maps and select the ‘Your Timeline’ option. There, you can see all the places you have ever been to, including the last place your phone has been used. That might narrow the search area down to a single district.
iOS devices Apple has also thought of those people who misplaced their phones. Their utility is called ‘Find My IPhone’. With it, you can lock your phone and track its location, as well as erase all the data remotely. Even if your phone has been switched off, any of these actions will work as soon as it is turned back on. You can also tick the box that says Notify Me When Found to receive a notification for when you phone has been switched back on again. As with the Android devices, it will only work if your iCloud account is still active on your phone. ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ "Find My Device" formerly Android Device Manager...

Nairalandsss: Young men are immature, wild, crazy and sometimes difficult to handle. Also, young men are dirty and disorganised. But take a look at any handsome mature man and you will find him charming, organised and in control.The best thing about mature men is that dealing with them is easier. They seldom waste your time. They are open about what they want.Generally, mature men would love a bit of intelligence, wisdom, maturity, practicality and the ability to handle emotions gracefully.Most of the mature men have dated the most beautiful women during their early years and they have realised that looks are not the only things that matter in relationships.Here are some things that mature men like in women.
Things that mature men like in women are:
1.Don’t Prolong The Chase: Mature men hate to run after women. Of course, they do love the chase that exists in the initial stages of any relationship. But if you prolong it, he may lose interest and may move on. He might have hundreds of other things in his life to deal with apart from love.
2.Allow Him To Take Charge: Mature men would love to take charge of things and be in control. Of course, this doesn’t mean that he will dominate. He will let you be if you let him be himself. So, don’t tell him what to do even if it is tempting.
3.Never Create Drama: The reason he is still single at this age is because he hated the drama that his ex-girlfriends have created. So, he moved on. If you do the same, he will again move on. So, keep things simple instead of creating a fuss.
4.Be Straight Forward: He hates wasting time. Of course, he still values all your emotions. But being open about them instead of being mysterious is advisable. Young men like the mysterious side of women. They sit and try to figure out the intentions of women and find it thrilling. But mature men have gone past that stage. They would like to keep things simple. So be open with him.
5.Stimulate His Intellect: Do you know what a man wants in bed? Well, for young men, it is all about the body. But mature men find it more stimulating when they sleep with an intelligent woman. Maybe men’s taste evolves and gets finer with age. So, try to stimulate him with a nice conversation before taking him to bed.
These are the things that mature men like in women.
In my lifetime, I have never seen a lady who has verbally said, I don't want you anymore. Its always an attitude they put up. its something special with ladies. Its like they are born with it.
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ ... You've been there too... Hahaha!
Spaxon: In the 21st Century, It is believed that men and women are constantly trying to find their right match, or more like “perfect partner”. While all we are trying to look for is someone who only compliments about our personality Not who we can share our good or bad news with. Should that be the case? Absolutely not.
Being in the shoes of someone is yet different as love can never be defined easily it takes so many challenges that are being faced by both the mates. These points can make you find your girl easily and if you find the one with all these qualities then it’s congratulations, you’ve found the one!
‘She’s beautiful, and therefore to be wooed; She is woman, and therefore to be won.’ – Shakespeare.
No Lady will fake this 10 Points..... Even if she does it won't take long.... Oga Lalasticlala come and read o
1. IF SHE BELIEVES IN YOU
Love is something that makes any wise man, insane and beautiful women, ugly… It depends on us how we deal with it. Being loved by someone is a very beautiful feeling. You all need a girl that believes in you and supports you in any matter.
Remember love can make you do things reaching extremes from both sides, This can be constructive as well as destructive too. Choose your girl wisely, Choose the one who sees a hero in you and would do anything to keep you motivated.
2. IF SHE KNOWS HOW TO DECREASE YOUR ANGER
Everyone in the world can get angry, It’s normal; we all have different lengths to our toleration can persist. It’s easy for the ones who are chill but if anyone is short-tempered then it won’t help. Your girlfriend’s way of dealing with you while you are angry may matter a lot. If she knows how to deal with your anger instead of being annoyed, you have found the right person, my friend.
This can be her greatest quality if she can bring you down from the “I’m going to leave you” state to “I love you” state. If she can understand you and keep quiet listening to you then that’s a blessing.
3. IF SHE TRUSTS YOU
Nowadays, It is quite easy to get know about a person’s life by either visiting their timeline or by going through the WhatsApp statuses they write. But if we look closely, these things hit relationships in a very hard manner. Lack of trust can be as harmful as the poison of the snake.
Also, it can take more time to earn someone’s trust but trust is like a glass.It can be easily be broken. While trust is the very beautiful thing to have, it is more adorable if your lover has it in” you”. It’s very fortunate to have someone in life who can completely trust you with everything. If your girl trusts you and wishes well for you. You are a lucky guy.
4. IF SHE COMPLEMENTS YOUR HUMOUR
Humor is what girls are attracted to, in most cases seen the guys with good humor have the better understanding with their girls. Different girls react differently to the joke you crack during your daily routine.
When you are in a relationship with a girl, there a lot of things that count. These things determine whether or not you should carry on your relationship for a long term. If she goes crazy when you crack a joke, and well, if she adds sugar to the joke you made, she is a keeper, Never let her go, She is yours for a lifetime.
5. IF SHE SHARES YOUR TASTE IN MUSIC, MOVIES, ETC;
Boredom can fade away by listening to your favorite song or by watching your favorite movie and if all these things can be done with your lover then it adds up more value to it. A good relationship requires valuable time together. You can often go to the cinemas if girl has the same choice as you. When it comes to films, music, and TV shows these things will matter because in your long run you both will be doing these things frequently.
6. IF SHE DOESN’T APPLY ‘ELASTIC BAND THEORY’
The famous movie “Men are from are Mars, Women are from Venus” by John Gray depicts a concept called “Elastic Band Theory”, Men need their space and sometimes it can be huge. Women should treat them like rubber-bands. For say, When men need space they go way far away just like when you stretch a rubber-band. Then, When they’re gone they start to realize their girl’s value more and more. It’s just the same as when you stretch the band, the faster it will come back together from both sides.
7. IF SHE MAKES YOU ACT, NOT JUST DREAM
Behind every successful man, there is a woman, You’ve been hearing for a long time that men are dreamers, If your girl can put off all the breaks and wakes you up with energy that you can achieve your dreams into reality.
Some people are blessed with the ones who make them awaken with all the energy to accomplish their ambitions. What reward would it bring to your girl? You will be the one achieving all your dreams, Your happiness will be her reward. She is not a stone to be thrown away from your life.
8. IF SHE RESPECTS YOUR FAMILY
Taking your girl to lunch sometime with your family is a good idea. If she gets some good laughs around the corner, your parents will like her & even your siblings may enjoy her company. Then seriously! She is precious and you should care about her smile.
These days, when many families have their highly selective choice criteria that make dating unpredictable. You never know if your family will ignore the fact that your girl doesn’t mind the stains on your shirt or likes to do laundry in the middle of night. Therefore, If she plays the family card right and everyone in your family ends up liking her, genuinely keep her.
9. IF SHE RESPECTS YOUR PRIVACY
We all have one that friend who got lost somewhere when he found a girlfriend for himself. Girls are like devils-with-horns who cuff their boyfriends up to a pole and don’t let them come out from their rooms. It depends on both the boy and girl to decide about their privacy and freedom.
In most cases seen, girls are possessive, they persuade their men to spend the golden(spare) time with them. That we should call an excessive love and care, but it’s not healthy. Everyone in this world needs some time for themselves, So, if your girl understands that and lets you have some “Friendly time” with your buddies, then your girl is an Angel sent by God.
10. IF SHE FIGHTS YOUR BAD INTENTIONS
You might want to quit smoking but can’t because it’s just too hard and you’ve been doing it for a long time and can’t find the strength to do it but then this amazing girl comes along and changes everything. Sometimes, It’s a matter of your intentions. Your intentions can lead you to get the best in you but then, your girl comes along and makes space in your head, heart, and soul and then your realize that you can easily fight those demons.
11. IF SHE EXPOSES YOU TO INTELLECTUAL THINGS
You might think why I added this here. Well.. when your girl exposes you to things like new books that make you think of things you never thought before. Or to poetry that can make you feel the different emotions or even to music that you never knew you would like so much you are required to keep her in your life because she is creating good sources for you to build your character even more stronger than ever.
If you take books for example; Last Saturday, you answered one diplomatic thing that others can’t and will make you well-known among people. These things may seem to be boring but there is always more than that which meets the eye and it is helpful for you in a long-run.
CONCLUSION:
Being in the shoes of someone is yet different as love can never be defined easily it takes so many challenges that are being faced by both the mates. Well, These points can make you find your girl easily and if you find the one with all these qualities then it’s congratulations, you’ve found the one!.............

^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^ Great history... Great thread. Thanks to all the gallant troops/ officers of the Nigerian Armed Forces who gave their lives on and off the battlefields.
I remember my cousin, who was in the Medical Corp of the Nigerian Army just like his mum [my aunt] who retired as a Major in the Nigerian Army. We have you all in our thoughts always.
Wolexdey: Thanks for the response. Let me say PMB needs no such empathy. Why was he not Jazz against contesting for second term. Please forget that theory. This politician's are experts in greed. They know what to do to move the Nation forward rapidly but often times the reverse is the case.
We should stop deceiving ourselves in this Country and do things right. The Nation is seriously lagging behind and its a huge concern for every right thinking Nigerians.
Thanks...
^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^ @Wolexdey Thanks for your insightful response... Your summations are valid.
Nigeria needs to decentralize ver fast in order to achieve the MAXIMUM potentials ... if this is NOT done, then the UN should oversee the creation of "new countries" out of Nigeria! Period... Republic of Western Nigeria or maybe Republic of Odua for all the Yoruba in Western Nigeria, Kwara and Kogi States mainly, Niger Delta Republic for only Ijaws, Edo Republic for all Edoid people in Edo and Delta States, and more...
naptu2: I thought that I first heard this song at the Mandela concert at Wembley in 1988, but he didn't actually perform the song there. He actually performed the song a year earlier at Paul Simon's Graceland concert and this is the video.
"Bring back, Nelson Mandela. Bring him back home to Soweto. I want to see him walking down the streets of South Africa (tomorrow)."
^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ @naptu2 Awesome...awesome. Thanks for the video. This man, Hugh Masekela is truly legendary! We will miss him in the physical but his works will remain undiminished just like Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.
Muckross1122: The Legendary South African trumpeter, composer and singer "Hugh Masekela" has reportedly died at the age of 78, after a battle with prostate cancer.
Wolexdey: Buhari has called for insults from the masses... He is yet to see more insults... Its a sign of how well a failure he is...
Useless Leaders driven by greedy ambitions. What you don't have, you can't give...
At such age, he still don't know rightful decisions to take... Always talking nonsense around... Such as: not in a hurry to appoint ministers, not in hurry to fix the Country, Not in a hurry to paste names of corrupt persons in his cabinet.
Even the Wife and Daughter seem amaze... So Pathetic
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ In all these... I have been wondering whether "jazz" was placed on PMB... because this is so unlike him. Some of these politicians and militants like Tompolo who where or are under investigation for corruption can do the "jazz" so that PMB, EFCC's Magu and more will become befudled and be making mistakes!
Second, I have also been thinking that the brutal illness that he had from late 2016 to 2017 may have affected him and his cognitive abilities. If that is the case, what PMB needs is empathy... Not insults till he finally leaves office after 1 term. So another APC guy can take over and I favour Tambuwal. Atiku, El-rufai and the rest will not be acceptable.
I salute the courage of Hajia Aisha Mohammed-Buhari for speaking out in January 2018 so that corrections can be made quickly.
A major revolt from Nigerians is on it's way if PMB and his close team don't correct their errors.
Bhelamblog: Looks Like there's a Big trouble in Paradise.. So You remember last week Amara called out Her Husband's brother Ogbonna Kanu who is also Laura Ikeji's Husband, Accusing him of been a coward, and trying to separate them, She also called him a Borrow Pose, and that might have stired up a war in their home..
As am talking to you right now, Kanu Nwakwo has unfollowed his wife, And she did same too. The Battle just begun, and I will be keeping you updated.. See below!

Ikology: I was duped by an Instagram online store. Their user name is : top_class_online_boutique/Legit store. After a sending money to them, they blocked me on IG and WhatsApp. Many must have become victims of this fraudsters and more will become victims if they are not exposed. Our WhatsApp conversations is attached.
^^^^ Please people should beware while online - and thanks to the OP for sharing this information with everyone. I know of an elderly man in his 70s who lost money to scammers who used a combination of a FAKE/CLONED facebook account of a female Senator and phone calls to steal money from him 2 years ago.
Elderly people and young ones should be careful. Scammers who operate online are all over the world and of different nationalities including the whites!
