PeaceJoyLove:
The lesson I learned here is that: do not ever think or plan in naira. I pity mu.mu who always say that standard of living here is cheaper and bla bla bla. You should realize that it is far more expensive to live here than abroad. We are beginning to see reality since govt is removing incentives and subsidies gradually. Lol.

One issue again is that Nigerians have seen used cars as their destiny. The same people will complain about mechanics. Lol. You buy a car today and the whole of your day you spend with a mechanic. To even think of a new car is like wishing them death. New cars are meant for who? See eh! Poverty is a bastard.

This scheme has shown you all that our economy is bleeding. Now that we are trying to digitalize everything, we have no choice but to upgrade. Now, we can see. Lol...

I am not justifying Lagos, but if you sit down with them, you will shut up when they analyze theirs. But I know they must chop too. That's normal. Lol.

Which car will N1.8million buy now? Cos the guy is talking neatly. Lol. Who wants to loan you money for long? The idea is to recover it fast. Go and check out how people default in paying loans back. All the CBN loans, lol. But see Lagos knows how to handle people very well. See I don't blame Lagos at all. If you aren't brutal, don't deal with Nigerians. Nigerians are merciless. So, it's why I don't even blame the loan apps for sending threatening messages to loan defaulters' contacts. Nigerians are brutal and you give it to them mercilessly.

So, I have absolutely nothing to say here. Since most don't want to do business but are waiting for the government to do everything, good luck to them. Before you say anything...they will all come out to ask govt for everything. Meanwhile, govt needs to get out of doing business. Yet, people want govt to do it.

On top, people are still giving birth like pigs. Each woman to 6 - 7 kids. Very senseless group of people. Imagine having 30 million in Lagos. Lol.

Canada is 8524.6 times bigger than Lagos, yet, Canada is 38million and Lagos is over 30million too.

See eh! Nigerians are the most useless individuals I have ever come across. Government is not our problem. The people are their problems. Look at the figures na. Canada is 8525 times bigger than Lagos, and Lagos is competing with it in terms of population. How will you have prosperity when it's sex and food in your heads. Mofos!

Nigeria cannot get better. No matter who you have as the president, it will never get better. Not until we correct our foundational challenges. Why won't Lagos be dirty?

Meanwhile, Lagos is where everyone is running to. And they build shanties everywhere. Lol. Madness everywhere.

Our GDP is not bad. It is doing well, but there are too many people feeding on it. We are too many. Yet, we are giving birth like idiootaaasss. Mofos! Cursed are Nigerians. Mad set of people.

We must speak to ourselves before it is too late. Buhari is not our problem. Tinubu is not our problem. We have gone through IBB, Abacha, and Abduldalami .....and we survived them. We survived those mad dogs in barracks. Are they our problems? Nope. They only took advantage of our weaknesses. Yet, we haven't realized this.

We need to start castrating men after having a child. And we need to stop giving out passports and free facilities to any child born after the first. We must stop this. 1 child per family for every 10 years. So we can regulate it to 2 or max of 3 which are well spread.

Japa if you can. The figures are not adding up you will make it in Nigeria.

exactly ,you have literally said everything my brother

obynzo:
Bro have a conscience if truly you are into the business 25% collected from the driver plus 8k daily remmittance is pure BS adding up the 8k payments gives us 400% profit which is outrageous and wicked. Even Nigerian banks with their madness won't charge you this kind of interest. 25% of the rider's daily earnings is their revenue, if you deduct the insurance and the cost of servicing it is fair. Even at that do you know the stress the driver has to go through to get a realistic amount that will give him a substantial amount after the 25% is removed?

these percentage are high because we don't have a data base of literally every Individuals in Nigeria ,,,,that's why the fed govt find it difficult to track down any one who runs away ,fed govt can as well give the car out to high purchase but it will be hell difficult to track these individuals,I will advise federal government to involve foreigners in this program with cheap housing accomodations and I bet you they will grab this last last na we go still complain like south Africa people

if you are not cool with the service don't discourage others from meeting the govt for such business ,,,,,every country has this service ,I don't Know y we Africans are very good In analysing every thing yet we don't move forward ,,,,if federal government invite the Indians to come drive people around ,we will still be the first to say federal govt are neglecting her people while employing foreigners ,,,,,

emmy2fyn:
Pls. Matured mind pls. No insult. My people I meet a girl and exchanged numbers and she told me she's single but the 2nd day we meet on WhatsApp chart because she based in neighboring state, after some time she was offline so I asked what the matter is, she said she didn't have a recharge card and am having issues with my bank account to unable to make any transaction, if not I would have try to send her recharge card for mb because, we needed to chart alot as u know na, so the 3rd day I always called her ooo buh, I told her to exercise patience and promised her recharge card so immediately she said I should not worry about her that her boy friend already bought her 400naira thats why she came online. So I asked buh u told me u don't have any boy friend now but, she claimed she meet a guy recently so, thats the new person. This girl ennn I really want her so pls. How can I win her? I guess she was angry from her conversation because of the recharge card I was not able to send as requested.

he has limit because of his superior.

yeah that's tru , Nigeria need an agressive leader and who knows the value of the economy ,even if you declear we eat locally made food ,many people will be ready with proper reason ,most are yet to know the reason ,create a bag of rice and put made in china or American they will buy , business is strategy ,

Shooyie:
There's something about Prof Osinbajo that makes him the ideal candidate for 2023. He is loved everywhere.

,he is loved every where and I feel he has the right way of leading but for now he can't do so because he has limit to his power

bigpicture001:
My girlfriend whom I have planned to settle down with simply started acting cold and eventually stylishly slide out of our relationship because I sat her down and made a family financial support proposal to her in which she will be financially committed to running the proposed family we intend to raise...

These are the proposal...

1. She earns about 80k wile I earn about 300k.. I asked that we jointly contribute for all the children's Career funding starting from when we get married even before any of their birth.. I proposed 10k monthly from her and 40k from me to a trust account. From it we plan to fund all the children's Career from kiddagatten to varsity or which ever path they choose..

2. That sh choose between Nepa bill or DStv or gotv sub monthly..just one for her

3. I will be responsible for rents

4. We pay into another joint account for vacation once in two years..like sh puts in 20k I put in 50k monthly..

5. I provide all the heavy food stuffs required in the house in large quantities including gas ND change of electronics, but sh provide all the daily food supplements to mk mine complete.

6. She buys her clothes ND I buy mine but we can both surprise ourselfs with gift to the other..

7. I will buy the family car ND maintain it. If she buys no p.

8. I didn't rule out surprise gifts once a while and outting which I bankroll ND expect her to do same occasionally..

Plz oo nairalanders are these responsibilities to a wife too much for her, I mean one who works and earn over 50k...?

bro I wouldn't be shocked she is sliding out of the relationship,most of this 21st century ladies are not thought how to be a house wife,she sliding out is not a good thing she should have added her own contribution of how much she can assist the home with ,I will advise men ,men should determine how many kids they want, because last last most of the burdens will be on you

peace brother

Theonlysonofher:
While others are celebrating the new year today I am here sobbing because my marriage is at the verge of breaking.

I loved my wife with all my heart but I don't think I will ever forgive her for what she has done to my mother.

I am the only child of my mother. I have three sisters on my father's side.
I am married with two beautiful daughters. my mother suffered from diabetes, bp and high cholesterol. She is on a special diets strictly no salt or too much sugar.

She came to stay with me because the person who was taking care of her wasn't doing her job properly so I had to bring her to my house so I will be monitoring her health.

I have a house help who prepares all her meals with less salt and she also makes sure she takes her medicines on time without fail.
Everything was fine, my mother is not a troublesome person, she gets on well with my wife and most of the time she is in her room resting.

On the 20th of December my house help had traveled to the village to see her people and she will be back in January 4th so my wife and I have to take care of my mother making sure that her foods is less salty and medicines on time.

Since I am always working so my wife had to take most of the responsibility. It is only for a week and fews days until the house help is back.

She had agreed to take care of my mother during this periods of time and I thought everything was fine but I noticed my mother become distant and tired unlike her and I had no idea that she was actually dying and I have never suspected that my wife was maltreating her.

So Thursday being 30th December I was at work when my wife called and asked me to join her at the hospital because mama had a seizure.

I rushed to the hospital and my mother was in a coma state and I asked her what happened to mama, she said mama woke up that morning complaining about shortage of breath and she told her to go back to bed and rest hoping she will be fine by the time she will wake up.
Only for mama to fall off the ground and started shaking with foam coming out of her mouth.

I was in panicked I couldn't stop praying for my mother to get better and I didn't leave the hospital, my wife went home to take care of the children because she has left them with the neighbour and I had spend all night prayer vigil at my mother's bedside and glory be to God my mother woke up yesterday being 31st but the doctor report was not a good news for me.

Actually my mother was poisoned with salt and guess who did it? My beloved wife couldn't bothered to cook a different meal for my mother, she used to feed her the same meal we ate knowing full well that mama cannot eat the same foods as us because we are salt lovers, especially my wife, she love eating too much salt which I have warned her over and over again because it is also not good for her health.

I confronted her, she said she only fed mama the same meals we ate twice only but according to the doctor it was more than two times.

I am hurt that my wife doesnt love my mother or treat her like her own mother because if she truly loved her like her own mother she would have put her diet on consideration and not allow her to eat the same meal as us. I love her mother and u treat her like my own mother.

It pains me a lot when I remember five years ago when her mother was in coma state and she was staying with her at the hospital, she is her only daughter amongst three boys.

I used to visit them everyday after work, I will bring foods and I have even washed her mother clothes with my own hands, I have done with love because she is my mother. I called my mother in law this morning and I have informed her about what her daughter has done to my mother and she couldn't stop apologising and she is very disappointed with my wife.

But see how she has repaid me by hurting my own mother.

She has apologised to me and to my mother, I have forgave her but I don't think I can stay with her again because one day if I become sick or bedridden she might treat me the same way.

Honestly speaking I am not even at home with her and the kids, I am at my cousin brother's house since yesterday I left the hospital and my mother is still in the hospital because she needs more treatment and hopefully she will recover by next week.

I don't feel like going home today and I don't know when I'll go home but I will always be there for my girls because they are the best thing that ever happened to me.

What other advice would you give me on this situation? What are your thoughts? Thank you for reading all I love this community.

boss man go home ,your wife has apologized already , forgive and forget

if there is one thing for sure ,one president idea can't transform this country alone ,thanks to good luck Jonathan ,for his little contribution even though Nigeria people kicked him out

FernandezPablo:
Great Wizkid..the greatest thing is that Wizkid is not a wannabe redpiller if not he would have been purposeless as all wannabe redpillers on this forum..

that's what I do tell them in the red pill section don't come here all day discussing women been mean to you ,these ladies have their own stuff going on in their head ,and you and I aren't the course ,how can you discuss about women ,females for good 365days without sharing ideas of business, resources ,help a brother elevate your selfs and step out in grand style's ,but I still forgot ,the thread is filled with teenagers

Deborah98:
This one they're building churches up and down is there something they're not telling us well I commend them for that but I'll suggest they focus more on human development and building too and also some social amenities. You can't build church when they people coming to worship there have to suffer to get there, by this I mean bad roads. We need more school,clean and portable water supplies, hospitals and their likes too.

it's business not the usual business you know of ,I will tell u a secret most big men or women can decide to fund an unknown church project under an existing church ,any offering paid ,and tith paid with be splited ,take obi cubana for example that's his his target,from night club to church ,I laugh in Swahili ,,,,,if Nigeria govt don't raid these multiple churches standing in 1 street at a time , instead of industry ,I just pity Nigeria in the next 50years to come ,,even canopy they go say na church ,most of the youth a jobless at home after graduation ,no single industry even the community boys have literal sold the whole community out already ,now they are back to square 1.

the can as well remove payment of bride price too

Haryhomyidhey:
I don't see anything wrong if a married man or woman has a celebrity crush. The name is actually what is confusing most people. Celebrity crush can be someone who is a celebrity that you like. I have a celebrity crush and my husband knows. This has not caused any fight or misunderstanding.

what you as a lady will not tolerate ,don't display it at home,many men have secondary school crush , university crush even street crush but these they let go off or don't even talk about it because it will create insecurity among our spouses may be he is taller than u or fatter than you or has big boobs or big Yash,,let's appreciate what we have,I am not shock sha this one join y divorce they high everyday

Acidosis:
There is a level you'll get to in life and these things won't make sense to you. Celebrity crush should only be a topic of discussion among secondary school boys and girls.

that's y it's right to date mature mined individuals

Vinnie2000:
So I visited my young Married friend and we were watching a movie where Christopher Okagbue (one handsome Guy that won GUS in 2012 or 2013) showed up..
Suddenly, my friend's Wife said 'Oh, see my Crush'..

Was surprised. My friend Did not say anything!. Whether he was Angry or not, I don't even know!..

But I was really Surprised and somewhat Confused!
Because some Singles Might have the likes of Genevieve, Nancy Isime, Beverly Naya, Ronaldo, Wizkid, RMD, etc as Celebrity crushes!

After Marriage, Are They still going to be Crushing on these People?

But, Really. Is it Right or Responsible for a Married person to have a Celebrity Crush?

Please Move to FP for further deliberation on this Issue!
Thanks!..

this is where religion comes on play in many society,,,

Topography of the area determines the accessibility of water via borehole.

A former Head of Geology Department, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Professor Smart Obioara, also aligned with both Udeogu and Ndukwe’s position. He confirmed that the geology of a particular area must be considered before a borehole drilling process commences. According to him, Enugu generally is a very bad place to drill for water and you can hardly find the rocks that can store water, although people have been making efforts and drilling wells.

“If you don’t have the necessary rock, what is called an aquifer, which can contain and also be able to release water in abundance, it will be hard. If you are not within the water table, the hope of getting water is slim and even if you do, it will dry up easily,” he explained.

Aquifer refers to when a water-bearing rock readily transmits water to wells and springs. The rate of recharge is not the same for all aquifers, and that must be considered when pumping water from a well.

all this are gramma bro ,uae don't have water but u hardly hear of shortage of water ,black man is indeed caused ,what's wrong with drawing pipes lines kilometers away from states that have steady water ,,,see black man is caused abeg joke apart , technology they never created is there for them to use but na watin geography talk they they follow when the solution is stearing at them openly

Mercychen:
After all these, she had the mind to treat you like that?
Marry her at your own peril.

My sincere advice, tell her you need the shop back to give to a woman who values and knows your worth.

and later everybody go day shout say marriage, relationship na scam ,it's is we that are the scam ,this is why guys hardly help with the Dept of their heart ,,,,, nothing is free in life , relationship is not free ,some men are ready to pay the price but some women still fumble ,na waooo

Amotolongbo:
Many men do not know when to act as a boyfriend and also when to act as a husband.
A boyfriend is a boyfriend and should not be confused for a husband.

Anything you do as a boyfriend or girlfriend is done kindheartedly and just have the mind that it is an investment that may end up being a bad one and move on.
I invested on my man cos I was in the position, thank God I do not regret that anyway

If you know that you can’t withstand having a bad investment, don’t spend on your gf or bf
There is no law binding gf and bf. It is all affection and any investment in it isn’t different from charity.

here we go again ,we are the one producing bad seeds in our community not the economic ,so a child brought up with love and upright surrounding decided to date a lady ,so it's best to to put in much love because ,he is not married to her ,I don't blame guys who go oversea and make money and catch a lady with 2 to 3 months of dating put ring for her finger ,,,and after she gives birth ,and slight provocation ffrom the woman na better beating end am ,all the time we see abusive marriage ,,,, pretty lady you are among those indirectly shouting for one , everything is a chain ,if a man can out of his over happiness decided to share his joy and finance with you what stops you from doing so too ? I am just shock by your comment I swear

everythinggirly:
Do you love her?
Maybe marry her.

don't be offended o,does marrying a lady change how she is going to act towards you , because you said if op loves her he should just marry her

Oscar Wilde once wrote, when you see a man and his woman outside smiling and looking happy, do not envy him.

atleast she doesn't embarrass him outside , because some couples have no shame washing their linens outside for the public to see

man every relationship has their own ups and downs,no relationship is perfect but when u see Instagram couples you will think it's always peaceful at home or they don't have their own form of misunderstanding

You're right tho i don't pay attention but i wanted to know because if the white man was black man and woman is white woman court might sentence the man to prison.

This robot is thankful his wife allowed him to work while she literally sits @ home and chill...

Impregnable101:
Lesson to learn here. Nor be beauty man take dey select WIFE. RMD see people like them Genevieve, Stella Damascus abi na Damascus yet the wise hyena pick average looking, intelligent, homely, respectful & godly woman.

when a man is ready to pick a wife ,if u like do bum bum surgery,boobs enlargement, Victoria secret makeup , if you don't bring peace of mind to him no matter the long courtship ,he will not ring the lady , that's the stage many men are in today , money aside , money will come and go ,but a good wife will still remain

Sterope:
Your 'true life story' reads like a fiction

I think say na only me notice am o,,,,the Palin truth is forget all this men are dis women are that ,most of us are not been taught how to co habit with other opposite sex ,how to start a relationship ,what to discuss in a relationship ,that's y we enter relationship all we look for na red flag the green flag is not talked about ,we use the red to spoil everything and we then blame each sex ,
