Jobs/VacanciesRe: Is This The Worst Mistake I Am Going To Make In My Life? by laivwire(m): 9:08pm On Feb 13
This move is too risky in my opinion. People still travel to Lagos with just one sack and slippers but its not an experience you would wish on your enemy especially if you currently have a roof over your head and relatives that can spot you some cash you whenever you are in dire need.

I've heard stories of people who roll in to lagos homeless and hustle on the streets and in the markets until they find their feet but this takes a lot of perseverance. With your well spoken english, I hope you can adjust to that life.

My advice would be for you to use what you have wherever you are. Use the internet, drop ship deals in your state, there's always a big market in every state. When you have some savings that can sustain your accomodation and feeding for a few months, you can then emabrk on your lagos journey.
BusinessRe: Naira Slides Below ₦1,350/$, Deepest Level Since May 2024 by laivwire(m): 7:48am On Feb 12
seunmsg:
I just keep wondering what would have happened to our economy if we had taken Atiku and Peter Obi’s advice to follow the Argentina model. By now, Naira would have been completely worthless and our economy would have been in super depression. We really missed a bullet by voting against those two economic illiterates. In fact, every Nigerian should take some minutes out today to say a prayer of gratitude to president Bola Tinubu.
Shallow conclusion...but I'm not surprised.
RomanceRe: Is There A Red Flag Here Already? by laivwire(m): 4:14pm On Feb 09
There's beauty in honesty and for me, I would prefer to tell her what's real from the start if I want something serious with her.

There's nothing wrong in saying you've checked the prices and it's in the high side, can you try someplace else?


That was one of the qualities I used to impress when I was in the game. Having a great experience on a small budget because I'm creative with it. Makes them want to come again.

As for your experience, you can try again, this time on your terms: place and time. Let her know you like her and would want something serious with her. If she's game, you would observe and if not, cut all emotions and communication.

Your time and money is precious except you want to fool around.
PoliticsRe: We Worked With Nigeria Government on Christmas Day Strikes On ISIS – Trump by laivwire(m): 10:48am On Feb 06

I might not like Donald Trump but the guy is not poor like you. Trump was given a brand new Aircraft worth $150m by Qatari leaders.
As at January 2026, Donald Trump is worth 6500 million dollars according to forbes. He doesn't need your 9 million dollars.
Your comment already betrays your poor insight. You should go through some additional information on how the Trump estate has been accruing wealth in this administration using Trump's influence as president. Maybe then you'd be more enlightened.

FamilyRe: Men That Married A Lady Without Skill Or Education , Share Your Experience by laivwire(m):
elipheleh:
Marrying an unintelligent woman is really the worst mistake a man can make.

If I can reverse the Hands of clock I wont go for my current wife.
Elipheleh, my story is very similar to yours and it's been on for over a decade now.
3rd class, no job, no business. No ambition.
All she wants is a good life and money to spend.... and it is frustrating to say the least.

This is despite the fact that I broke my first true relationship of over 4 years because of this fear. I had seen enough experiences with my uncles to know it's not a good idea. All the wife would care about are her kids, watching Nollywood all day, and wanting the latest items they see on other people they gossip about. I discussed this with my wife before marriage that I do not want a wife like this and she said yes, ok. Only to count several years in marriage and she never stepped out of the house to go work for one day. I've designed CV multiple times and given her money for business. All down the drain because she has no drive to do it.

But I will reecho what honour8 said. I met my wife at a low point in life but ever since, I have found myself in an upward trajectory. Every big project I put my hands into, even though it's quite difficult and takes a long time, eventually turns successful. I previously had a cycle of 3 years of good tidings and by the fourth year I would be expecting some kind of setback but things changed since I met her. She talks about it too.

Now, I'm not so spiritual or anything. I have fought with her countless times and given her several ultimatums in this issue but it's just ingrained in her not to do/want anything other than her current life.

I'm not giving up on her however because even though her inaction has put me in dire straits when it comes to making some big career decisions multiple times, I choose to look at the positives. She's good natured, loves to care for the kids better than anyone else I know and does all housewifely chores gladly. Cook, clean, etc

Besides there are many educated Nigerian couples out there today with only the husband working. Even though the wife wants to work, there's no opportunity. So just manage your accounts and lead your family the best way you can given the situation.

CrimeRe: Dasaba Favour Solomon Kidnapped In Ekpoma While Entering His House by laivwire(m):
When it's just as easy as picking up a cooperative victim and spend a few days in the bush in return for millions of naira, why do you think kidnapping would not be rampant?

The only way to stop this thing is by crushing any kidnapping ring with unalivement. Right now, the returns are more than the risks with public donations for a few days work.

Unfortunately those who should spearhead the collective resolve to reverse this evil trend are busy with propaganda and rounding up protesters

harjay1986:
You people always talk as if you are God... Please the Gate to the so call sane country is still open kindly go there... In safety there is always a saying that you can only save a life that is safe able... And you can only risk your life if it won't end just now... Somebody is under a rumble and you want a fireman to go there, why cant you volunteered... At least you can receive calls from the victim... In a sane country you mentioned there is no fire Head that will commit his team inside such except they all sign dead contract... Yes life is involve but is there a way they can be rescue no... So why committing more resources to something you can't safely rescuehuh Emotion is not allow when rescue is been don many casualty will be recorded....

Watching too much American movies they affect you
Of course it is understandable that rescue efforts are executed with caution but the pace of work is a different topic. Is it more practical to wait until all fire subsides when you have necessary equipement to put human lives first. The situation here is clear; lack of necessary equipment or skills leading to loss of lives. Call it what it is and not give excuses.

And for your comment on me voluntering. If I am on ground and skilled in such, I would do it. I only offer value where I can, not for keyboard warriors who won't do same if found in the same situation. There's also life and learning opportunities beyond American movies. You should go out some more.

Expect no shocks in the iimmediate future. At least not in the next 2 years. Crude production is also regulated so its not falling below a certain benchmark.
RomanceRe: She's 7 Month Older Than I Am by laivwire(m): 9:31am On Jan 04
I won't advice. Respect is rare among couples close in age not to talk of the woman being older than the man.

Other than that, I would always advice to marry someone way younger. Like 5 to 7 years. By the time you clock late thirties, she would be looking way older than you and may no longer match your energy or sexual appetite. Your wife would be looking older than your mates wives and she may feel isolated.

There's a reason why older rich men go look for a young lady to marry. It's not like their first wife is a devil. They are simply lacking in required traits.
PoliticsRe: Lagos State Government Gives Update On Greater Nigeria Insurance Building Fire by laivwire(m): 8:22am On Jan 04
In a country that makes sense, responders will set up camp on this place and work day and night to ensure survivors are rescued.

Even if it takes using a xray scan to detect movement and work towards surviving victims.

We are having victims calling from within the rubble for multiple days when your rescuers are closing for the day and going home to sleep.

A failed country is what it is and nobody in authority is willing to call a spade, a spade and take responsibility.

The frsc official the other day on Arise is asking journalists to call emergency numbers which he knows never work. Instead of admitting that this is a problem and correcting it so it works next time, they would let it slide until another calamity happens and then trend in the news again.

Emergency response is dead in Nigeria. That's a fact
