Kinzo0917:
Which traffic dey kubwa road?

The only time traffic dey kubwa road na on Mondays

As for the other reasons you highlighted, I00% agree with you
My mistake, it was Bwari that was coming to mind as I was typing. Even Kubwa is not cheap.

You better go to Gwagwalada and start small. You can easily take a single bus to berger if you're going to town. Kubwa, Karu, na holdup go exhaust you for road. Lugbe is fine but expensive.

Also note that its not just rent that's higher in those places, the cost of living, food and commodity prices, okada transport are high as well. Things are cheaper in Gwagwalada but the light supply is bad. Yoou should also watch out for areas prone to robbery incidences.

While chatgpt or any generative AI is good, it has negatively impacted originality. Someone would see this and think you're speaking from experience, not knowing it was pulled off of a generative AI.

OP, please do further research and don't swallow this info hook, line and sinker especially the prices
I was looking for who would point this out.

Why do they keep escaping with bullet wounds?
Because they escaped into the forest grin

Seriously though, I think the officers pull back when the terrorists stop firing and retreat into thicker vegetation. Following them into such trenches would make them crawling ducks for the bandits.

I don't know why they haven't started using advanced drones to track these elements down.

This is how we produce chemical resisitant weeds. Don't worry, you are only making more money for the agrochemical companies.

Vulcanheph:
My reason for saying this is that no man that wants to rape a woman (either intoxicated or not) will take her to a hotel, when it's quite easier to park the car at a quiet area and do it in the car and drop her somewhere when he's done.
and even hang around thereafter, lying in bed beside her till the next morning. Unfortunate

LoanShark:
This is not true.
Your name alone dey fear person. I'm not talking about a business borrowing but individuals like the Op. I agree with your submission but if an individual is not savvy enough to spell out the interest rates of a contract in pure understandable terms like "simple interest", he/she should better borrow from family and friends to avoid a heart attack down the line.

Romance › Re: I received this weird gift from a neighbor by laivwire(m): 1:46pm On Dec 03, 2024
If theres anything superstitutous about the plate, its going to be a message and not a charm. A single plate can look odd just like someone giving you a wall clock or something. Some of these gifts have meanings that the recipeint would be able to decipher right away.

To find answers, ask any old cultural person around you. Has the gifter known you for a while?
Phones › Re: Some People On Facebook Still Wishing Someone That Is Late Happy Birthday by laivwire(m): 1:42pm On Dec 01, 2024
Blitzking:
Facebook should develop an algorithm once a condolence message is detected on a person's page it should be deactivated after 1 to 2 years. Many social media app are housing dead ppl ..especially that Instagram.
Closing it is not right as that is the primary documentation of their existence except they had a personal biographer. Facebook offers the option of having a close relative take over the account of the deceased so its not locked out forever. You only need to upload a death certificate and proof of your relation to the said person. You can announce that the person has passed, leave a farewell message and select thepictyures you want to remain public on the profile.

I still have people reaching out to me 1 year later that they have been trying to reach my sibling that passed.

Travel › Re: Help! What Can I Do Abroad With This Degree? by laivwire(m): 9:14pm On Nov 29, 2024
Albertone:
Thanks

The roles I’ll get with this degree aren’t hot cake roles, so it will be difficult for me to convince employers when many of their nationals can do the job without needing sponsorship. This is based solely on my research online.

What if I have ACCA plus solid work experience with a multinational accounting firm(e.g Big 4), will I be able to get a work permit to work in the accounting field in EU?
One thing you should understand is you won't get hired right away into the big roles. Call it rac.sim, it doesn't matter. Odds are naturally stacked against our race. You would usually have to start from the ground up regardless and this makes sense for you and for them. They are helping you get a foothold in the country, you are providing them with cheaper labour and skills.

Ever wonder why regulated professions like doctors always have to get new certifications to practice? Your former certs are more than often tossed aside (not always though especially if you are in tech or design with some mad projects in your portfolio). Many times, they also prefer graduates with certificates from their univerisities.

That sorted, you need to search for regions/municipalities in the country of interest with high demand/shortage of your skills. That is where you should focus your search because some governments waive the requirements of advertising on the job boards or confirming there's no suitable labour in the EU simply because the skills are already in the shortage list.

An alternative route is to double downoon academics and secure a PhD. That givess you 3 years at least to blend in after which you can switch to the "hot cake" roles you desire.
Travel › Re: Help! What Can I Do Abroad With This Degree? by laivwire(m): 11:19am On Nov 29, 2024
Your degree matters abroad as some of the largest GDP countires in EU will only give you a work permit if you find a job in the field you studied. An easy route is to pick up a sales job as yu have knwoeldge in business admin. You could also take up skills in Microsoft Power apps which are suited for optimizing business administration and operations. The only snag is you would need at least 3-5 years cognate experience before anyone will look at your CV.

You should also prepare for the langauge, depending onthe country you go to. That you won't learn language na lie and it is not easy. You should be planning about 3 years minimum before you balance into a middle class lifestyle in obod oyinbo. The ralier you start, the better escially considerng the age factor. If you are crossing the 30 years mark , your case is gradually turning to sorry o.

I knock projects like this because it's akin to climbing a ladder from the top. What happened to restomods where you make older cars more fuel efficient or more performance oriented using minor tweaks.

I know this 'supercar' is only a publicity stunt anyway.

Greek gifts: you buy the houses with a clause that you refurbish it within a set duration of time. This refurbishment goes into hundreds of thousands. This is exclusive of all estate and municipal (monthly and annual forever) fees to be paid. The houses are also situated in rural and abandoned villages where they use tourist funds to redevelop.

Thanks but no thanks

You concluded the lizard is paralyzed just by viewing the photos? undecided
My post has answered the question. The lizard won't stay put to get swallowed of it isn't paralyzed in the first place.

Pythons constrict their prey before swallowing, other snakes immobilise the prey with venom.

How did the lizard get paralyzed if not by venom. Or do you think the animal will stay put while its being swallowed?
