Jobs/Vacancies › Re: I Got A Federal Appointment, Resigned From My Job... And Now I'm Hanging by laivwire(m): 2:53pm On May 02, 2025
I believe you're aggressively searching for another job because the level of corruption and unpredictability in Nigerian public institutions can never be fathomed in its entirety.

Get another job and if they call you fine, if not, you'd be okay.

To apply pressure, team up with other aggrieved applicants and file a petition to the right quarters in the institution. That's if and only if your recruitment process was legit.
Car Talk › Re: Why Is The Car Door Always Locked When There Is An Accident by laivwire(m): 5:51pm On Apr 29, 2025
Cars are actually designed to unlock all doors , cut off fuel supply and turn on the hazard lights in the event of crash. More recent models even initiate emergency calls.

Doors not opening is a result of the bent door frames. If you're conscious, simply wind down and climb out. The windows are usually smashed in the event of a crash so there's no need using a headrest to smash windows.

2elliot:
I don't know how my cousin did it, but his SS daughter has stopped falling sick after he was introduced to one traditional and herbal remedy for his daughter.
If she's truly healed. Glory to God.

We tried all possible options as well and there was a particular herbal medicine one man from Ilorin used to supply us back then which worked quite well in stopping the frequent crisis. We lost contact with him at some point.

We also tried other means too including decompresssion surgery. We were saving for a marrow transplant when he died. My close cousin actually had a marrow transplant (very horrible scars) but he died less than a year later even with the herbs, treatment in the Uk etc Just a random crisis like any other and all the painkillers could not stop the pain until he gave up on the bed right there.

I lost my only sibling to this sickness after 31 years of struggles right from childhood. He's the one who made us know all the general hospitals in every state we lived.

The sickness held him down a lot and tortured him and us in extension for years. (Even after his departure). Time, money, effort, grief etc

To singles yet to marry, please be wise.

Business › Re: Turning A Loan Into An Uber Business In Ibadan: Worth The Risk? by laivwire(m): 10:27am On Apr 20, 2025
USFOCUS:
A loan company is offering me 3m to pay back 6m in 18month. Should I take it a buy a car for uber in ibadan ?
Unhealthy deal. Please don't entrap yourself.

If you must, reduce the principal and look for another business.

With #1.5m channelled into semi-intensive mixed farming. Poultry (egg production), Goats, Vegetable (pepper, tomato), cereal production (maize, rice, soybean, cowpea), farm services (like spraying services, sale of agri input) and some commodity trading carried out at full time activity month on month, you can meet up with the payment of #3m while still feeding yourself within that time frame. You would probably need to get another loan after repayment to sustain the business but then you would have better leverage to negotiate.

There are other business ideas but this is what I would do if I am in a similar situation as its my field of expertise.
Celebrities › Re: Gospel Singer, Big Bolaji Dies At Age 50 After A Brief Illness by laivwire(m): 11:34pm On Apr 19, 2025
My goodness shocked

See people bickering about body weight when lifetime worth 50 years of solid memories and impact has just been terminated. Insensitive.

I've known Big Bolaji sice about 2008 and he has always been big. Big people also live long and as a matter of fact look more fit in old age than skinny people but that's beside the point.

May his soul rest in peace and may the Holy Spirit comfort the family in these trying times.
Celebrities › Re: Portable Knocks Out Speed Darlington (Video) by laivwire(m): 9:11am On Apr 19, 2025
Just look at how Speed is waddling. He also wore a singlet that his opponent could grapple and use to drag him. The singlet would also get wet with sweat thereby getting heavier, sticky, causing him more heat in an already heated arena.

They should have provided them with some head gear at least. No wonder he didn't last one round.

It was a nice scrap anyway.
Family › Re: My Dad Wants To Settle Me With 7 Million, I Need Advice. by laivwire(m): 10:41pm On Apr 14, 2025
Good idea but maybe you should start using some of what you've learned to make money already.

A major problem in career development is chasing money on one hand and chasing passion on the other (for example , doing a job just for money while following your passion as a side hustle). Your progress won't be as fast as you desire because your efforts are divided.

But when you are being paid while working in the field you desire. You don't need to worry about how to eke a living and as you work daily, you're improving the very skills you want to develop.

I.T is about your project portfolio and the closer that portfolio can get to what obtains in the professional industry, the better. Start looking for jobs in your desired field even if it's entry level.

and don't make the mistake of throwing all your cash into the business. Start small.
Education › Re: I Want To Learn French! by laivwire(m): 8:01am On Apr 14, 2025
alkines:
I would like to learn French, not Duolingo French. I mean proper conversational french

I will love recommendations of where to learn, specifically in Lagos.
For what purpose?
Exams?
Just to speak the language?
To find a job?

These objectives determine how much effort and resources you would have to put into it ranging from self study to hiring a tutor or signing up for French classes (e.g Alliance Française)

Thank you for input, my buisness requires me to move from one place to another, like how much can one budget for rav 4 nigeria used in a good condition. 07 upwqrd
I dont't sell cars but please consult Jiji. Thats the easiest source of scoping current market prices. The Rav4 is a good option but I am certain it starts from #7m upwards.
Autos › Re: To Those That Bought Their First Car by laivwire(m):
Why would you buy a house first? A house is a luxury purchase because business wise, the liquid cash returns are so low in comparison to the capital invested. Except you are a realtor who sells houses for a living I don't see the validation. You need a stable job or business with steady returns first before making a house purchase.

Get a car first, it opens more opportunities. Get a cheap but reliable Naija used as your first car to learn the ropes if you're not buoyant enough for a toks. You can upgrade as your income grows later. You don't want to have to replace engine or rear light for #1m
Family › Re: Each Time I Remember This Incident, I Get Traumatized. by laivwire(m): 10:13am On Apr 12, 2025
Sad occurrence. Falling off a moving vehicle onto asphalt is never a good thing.

A friend tried to disembark from a moving lorry once, the mass transit type with an entrance at the rear and didn't know when he hit the ground unconscious.

An uncle also had the unfortunate incidence of a danfo bumper catching his trousers at a bus park at night as people were hustling for a spot in the bus. The bus dragged him for some distance on the highway before the driver's attention was called. By the time the bus stopped, he wasn't only unconscious, his garments were all blood soaked and in shreds. He had wide injuries all over like he had been in a fire accident and required skin grafts. Many of those injuries still remain on his body over 10 years later.

In similar occurrences, a precaution is to jump directly opposite the direction of the moving vehicle, that can reduce the impact of the fall and enable you gain some stability control. Of course this is after trying every possible means to get the driver's attention.

You can always wait for the driver to slow down as well even if he's not coming to a complete stop. Overtaking cars can also see you if they catch up to the vehicle and warn the driver.
Sports › Re: Tunde Delu's Abeokuta Rugby Cup To Hold On Saturday by laivwire(m): 7:59am On Apr 11, 2025
dominique:
None of those plays have the physique of the average rugby player including the Delul guy himself
No be beans oh. When you come across professional athletes from the other side, you need no one to tell you they are athletes. Many times big, tall and muscular. It is a result of long term training with highly professional equipment (including pfft pfft grin )

Even in boxing, African boxers are comparatively slow in reflexes and movement in comparison to the global athletes we watch on TV.

That we even have events like this is a good effort on its own.
Romance › Re: Masturbation Is Good Don't Let Anyone Decieve You. by laivwire(m): 12:00pm On Apr 09, 2025
Do you realise that masturbation is for men with no game who can't afford to get laid.

When you have access to getting laid whenever you want, you won't even remember the last time you masturbate.

What you need is a job to get you busy and a clean partner to have fire relations with whichever way and whenever you want.

How you get that is up to you however. A good job will largely get your mind off unproductive thoughts like sex and with some cash and a good packaging, you can get clean baddies giving you free home delivery services (not brothels or yeast factories).

Romance › Re: My Wife Doesn't Want To Do Anything Despite All My Efforts by laivwire(m): 7:03am On Apr 08, 2025
Atoliman has said it all.

Put her (and the kids) on a strict budget that's comfortable for you. Continue to build your life and career in parallel because in the end all your selfless efforts will not be appreciated.

Women like that feel they are beautiful and deserved to be spoilt for it. I'm sure you must have heard it from her mouth. She also doesn't care about you but herself and her kids.

By 60, your kids would be trying to climb their own ladders and your wife would still be looking for ways to benefit herself. You'd be on your own except you secure your own future yourself now and not for other people.

Old age poverty is real.

They keep repeating that we should contribute to national security. How, may I ask? They never mentioned that part.

What do you want us to contribute when you've taken everything from us. Do you want us to enter the bush in hunt of herdmen with sticks and stones?

They push him forward but helicopter is missing target. They fire rockets that do not explode.

If he were rescued, this press conference would carry more weight but from what I just watched, I am not seeing the cause for any celebration.
