₦airaland Forum

Lots of cock and bull stories hitting front page these days.

Is nairaland so desperate for traffic these days that they hire fiction writers to bomb us with worthless content?

never been to poland but I know quite a number of poles. They are all hustling in other European countries hundreds of kilometres from their homeland. Those guys would work 24 hrs, 7 days a week if given the opportunity. They're really enjoying (and exploiting) the schengen advantage as EU citizens.

A lot of Nigerians are all applying to go Poland. I wish them all well and hope they meet what they expect.

This is no longer a case for protests, its now about restoring basic citizen rights by force.

He will. Therapy will take care of the rest. Plus, he still needs to conquer his fear of water body

Hopefully. Depends on how much brain damage he's sufferred due to asphyxiation.

All this English and no pictures?

Ajens1991:
He did not change jet, but returned with the same faulty jet.. It's funny.

I'm sure he was advised to return to Nigeria because of Tinubu's absence.

Exactly, to avoid the haiti situation replicating itself in Nigeria

I pray gullible nairalanders don't fall for this.

Senator Orwoba then reported the matter to Karen Police Station, after which it was picked up by the offices of Interior Cabinet Secretary Kindiki Kithure, and that of Immigration PS Julius Bitok.

There's been so many complaints about that Julius in Kenya.

Bandit could not be identified.

I laugh in Boko haram.

With these circumstances, the marriage is not worth going further with. DNA test your kids, gather all evidence and file for divorce.

To continue living with her and the knowledge of what you know is to number the days to your devastating loss. Your life inclusive.

Greetings Nairaland

Please I’m currently in the Uk while my wife and kids are Nigeria, I’ve got 4 plots of land in Gwagwalada FCT and 5 million to start with, I’m thinking if I should start block industry or life stuck farming (goat, cow or bird) any one of them, because I don’t intend staying long in this Uk, the life here is bleeped up.

Please experts in these area what would you advise.

Except your wife has technical skills in these areas, don't start the business hoping to make intense money from it right from the get go. I support ruminant production because its long term. Just keep multipying the goats until you can come down and manage things yourself.

You can also plant trees. They take some time (repaid time) to develop and in some years, you can come down and start harvesting and selling.

If your land is in a developing part of Gwagwalada, you can try block making but make sure your wife is business savvy. I can't emphasize that enough because she's the only one you can trust. Any other person will run you down.

Other than that, invest in an existing business with proper documentation or just put your money in piggyvest jejely.

CBN should pump in more dollars at #1,105 like before now

All those low rates they issued in the last 2 months or so were just oshofree.

I keep laughing when some people will be asking the revenue question. Are you the one feeding the UK? Are these not the same students who pay a quarter of their school fees and then come in to hustle and pay the rest in instalments?

You are spending Uk money, not naija money. Besides, you are also getting the education. They didn't collect money for you to come sit in their country. Besides, all the money you spend while there was also made there. I have no stats but I'm convinced that the percentage of fresh immigrants with high value skills will be less than 20%.

Yes, useless immigrants are too many and they have to be repatriated. Its the ugly truth but many immigrants come over to the west and spoil things. They carry damage baggage from their home countries to every place they go. I once saw a video of people looting passenger bags from a flixbus in traffic. By who? Defnitely not citizens of the country.

Make una go develop your country too. Do your studies and return home. We can't keep complaining of neocolonialism when our generation is not making an effort at development.

Nobody will use anybody if we all stick to what our job entails, but no, you wan prove say you dey hardworking pass Esau

...and this is why I support Human Resource agencies (if they are not exploitative as well). If job seekers have specialized training in the roles they are hired for, no employer can ask them to carry out these menial tasks as if they're unskilled labor.

The agencies should also front for the employees as a bigger entity as opposed
to a single man army who can even be fired verbally. These are the issues the NLC should be tackling. As far as I know, only civil servants can fight for rights today. This should be replicated in the private sector as well.

SSSbuster:
That's exactly what I did. Most pharmacists I visited didn't have what I was looking for. However, this particular guy didn't either, but he offered me an alternative that he claimed would serve a similar purpose. Before he gave me Aurobindo, when I researched the drug and its ingredients online. To my surprise, I discovered that it's used to treat HIV infection, not prevent them. What I was actually looking for was a medication that could prevent HIV after potential exposure.

The ai of that drug looks like a good combination. The drugs you use to prevent HIV (PEP) is the same as that used to treat it. If you're concerned about the competence of the pharmacist, then go to the general hospital.

Just know you have to start using those drugs for the next 30 days or so at a fixed time if the day. You can't skip it, take it too early or too late. Get ready to deal with side effects as well.

When you're done, you would realize the importance of life and how it's not worth gambling away with cheap, illicit sex.

The anti-japa movement is in full swing. First the nurses and healthcare professionals. Now IT.

The brain money drain must stop.

Let the bandits up North try him

Exactly, I know an influential person who was a "strong man" killed by bandits some years ago. He was at home when they informed him that bandits were rustling the cattle in his farm. A situation in which even soldiers refused to go, he proceeded to the farm to confront the bandits.

According to hearsay, he questioned if they knew who owned the farm and why they would dare attack it. The bandits shot him severally but the bullets didn't penetrate. They grabbed and hacked him with machetes but no luck.

Guess what? They looped a noose around his neck and hung him in a tree. That was his unfortunate end.

It is high time a 2 factor authentication is provided for POS withdrawals. These crooks are really exploiting the loop hole.

They debit accounts from unknown locations without any camera or surveillance. Worse is there's no limit. At least NFC is limited to a certain amount.

POS terminals should require a token validation on the phone before withdrawal or a picture of the withdrawee in the absence of a phone.

?

Are you sure your card wasn't switched at the ATM? Did it fall at any point when you were trying to withdraw?

Criminals will stand behind you and switch your card without your knowledge. You insert the wrong card and key in your pin (which they observe) but the card doesn't work. ATM swallows fake card.

Meanwhile, the crook has your card and your password. He just goes to the nearest POS (without surveillance) and drains your account.

This drop is not reflecting on money transfer apps because the government has blocked online forex transactions. If not for that, the drop would have been worse by now.

I wonder when students will be able to have majors and minors and have documentation for both when they graduate. The EIBIC is a good initiative but we need more. We have students in other countries graduating in Economics+French or Agribusiness+Public policy for example.

When you limit a student to study only philosophy, how do you want him to thrive in the job market?

Our universities still punish students for skipping a year of study with extra year and loss of honours when other schools allow students to pause and realign their education pathways especially when they realise the course they are studying is not for them. The only cross overs you see in Nigerian public universities is to downgrade students from veterinary science to agric or Medicine to biochemistry.

We still have a long way to go.

But a small sized France(like a state in Nigeria) should have every city looking classy.
Exactly why I feel Germany is ahead of France in all round beauty

Please obtain verifiable evidence before making claims. We are past the age of hunches. France is not small-sized nor is the size of a state in Nigeria.

PepeXKermit:
France is a sheethole. take that to the bank!

Based on what findings? Just because you visited one or two cities doesn't give that justification.

Have you lived in France? Have you toured cross country or did you just walk through Paris and conclude?

You can't visit Bauchi alone and claim Nigeria is full of almajiris.

The world used to frown at social climbers but today, we have realized the end truly justifies the means. Call it what you want but marriage still remains one of the valuable tools to personal, spiritual, professional and life changing growth.

Getting married to a valuable individual can open doors for you in places you never dare step into, give you exotic citizenship or even make you entitled to a bloodline/monarchy beyond what you as an individual or if married to a 'lower class' individual can achieve. Your children sef fit fine pass you because of your marriage decisions.

Any aspiring individual is to open his eyes wide when making such decisions. It used to be women concerned about this before but even men need to take cognizance of this fact in these times.

From the picture you painted, this relationship has no favourable future. Like someone said, time will do the rest; before or after marriage regardless.

It's common to see people jumping queues at police checkpoints and you would be tempted to do same.

Don't.

First, why would you jump the queue?, is your time valuable than every other person waiting?

The police are law enforcement, you OBEY them. Don't do gragra. Many officers have lost their lives due to spring attacks by gunmen who carry out similar maneuvers like your friends did. Your friend is even wearing a camo like shirt. All red flags asking for trouble. You should always wait your turn.

I did jump queues sometime ago when I traveled a lot but I was already familiar with the police teams on that route. I also drop something almost everytime I pass. Your appearance also says a lot about who you are before they even approach you.

It needs just a little body spray, interior retouch, wheel alignment, engine service, gas filling....

ValarinzAutos:
SOLD!!

I commend your consistency and your moderate and reasonable pricing.

This car sold for about 3m before the dollar crisis and although 750k has climbed on top, I consider it reasonable pricing for this superb and multifunctional vehicle.

People reacting based on emotións. This forex issue is a direct battle between the FG and hoarders. As long as crude oil is being sold, they will always have money to fight the USD. If USD falls below a certain benchmark, be sure people will buy more and the price will rise again, if it risses to a certain level as well, people will rush and sell to recoup their naira. That equilibrum point is what everyone is on the look out for.

The question is; what value does the FG want the USD to max out at? We would keep watching the price at which the CBN sells to BDCs. From my observations however that value still lies around #1300 per Dollar in a worst case scenario.

Fear God na.

I was walking by a bike store a few minutes ago and saw these lovelies. Can you guess the models?
