Kobicove:
The limit of N20k is for the benefit of the customer so as to reduce the potential loss in the event of a robbery undecided
In the event of a robbery at the ATM, or in the event of a robbery after walking away from the ATM? Then why charge extra 65 naira per withdrawal after the 1st 3 withdrawals, if such a bank wants to be altruistic?

I Just can't believe guys are saying this, you know you can't keep a secret yet you allow yourself to take in that secret.. Who's wicked? do you have a best friend who you're sure would willingly take a bullet for you?..
i hate what okey did, but that doesn't change anything... Secrets are secrets... Probably even okey brothers didn't know this secret. And you sef, try to reduce the rudeness in your tone, we're only debating.
Are you deliberately trying to show that you have nothing upstairs? shocked Keep it up, because you are succeeding. Did the OP beg his friend Okey at any time, to entrust such secrets to him? No. The friend called Okey willingly poured out his secrets to the OP. Secondly, 'secrets are NOT secrets' where they have the potential to harm, or cause evil to others. sad

If you were in the girl's shoes, and someone was doing something so evil to you, like Okey was doing to the girl, would you still be here chanting "secrets are secret", or would you be thanking God that someone had a conscience to warn you about what was going on, so that you could either protect yourself from harm, or take precautions to avoid the evil that was about to be unleashed upon you? Think carefully before you answer. The response you give will show if you are a supporter of evil, or a force for good. undecided

It clearly shows you don't know women. If quarrel arises like you said and they want to expose secrets this secrets will still end as gossips in female circle. They can only expose you to the guy if they actually want to payback not because of misunderstanding.

OP snitched and in a normal settings should be drilled.
Guy, stop dat epistle. undecided I grew up among women, and have worked extensively with many of them. Many women do NOT know how to keep secrets of other people, especially those that have to do with their own friends. A woman can only keep a secret of her own, not those of her friends, relatives or acquaintances. shocked If a woman fancies something that her friend already has, or if there is any minor quarrel, you need to see how all those so-called secrets will come tumbling out in the form of insults and abuse. Asking a woman to keep your secret, is like pouring droplets of water in a leaking bowl. sad Guys can still fight, and NOT spill their friends' secrets. But women? Never! sad

kimbraa:
Nothing new. Even the so called enlightened adults would first check their account balance, recharge their phones, then proceed to withdraw in bits on a queue that has more than ten persons waiting to use the same machine.

The way Nigerians behave does shock me at times. grin
You can't withdraw more than 20k at once, on most ATMs. sad So if you are withdrawing about 100k, you need to spend a longer time in front of the ATM to repeat the transaction like 5 times, even if there are 30 people on the queue. It isn't anyone's fault. The ATM and the bank that configured it, decided to limit the maximum number of naira notes that can be withdrawn at each point in time, to 20k. Yeye people! angry

How did he do the right thing?
He covered for him, lied for him, knew his friend was going to marry someone else and only told her after the fact!
How is that a good thing?
The former fiancé did not dodge a bullet she was shot in the chest but the bullet missed vital organs she will live but it will take a very long time for her to heal and get over this betrayal.
And whose fault is that? The fault of Okey the crook, or the fault of the OP? huh

at that point, desperation sets in.

Thunder is already waiting for any friend of mine that is planning to do this kind of poo to me.
Abeg, commot for road make better person hear word! sad No thunder will wait for any friend of yours', who decides to expose your wicked, dishonest, ungodly ways, in the same way the OP did to his friend Okey. In fact, it is Karma that will visit you and finish you off, if you decide to copy the evil antics of the OP's friend!

Cut the crap, you joker. Women are always the first to snitch on their fellow women, or female friends. Any little quarrel and all the secrets come tumbling out. They do not keep secrets like guys do. So what on earth are you saying?

She obviously have her secrets which only her close friend knows about but as usual a girl won't open up like this nigga did. Most of the girls screaming you did well won't do the same if their fellow girl is playing a man.

Guy you Bleep up and you deserve better drilling. There are ways you could have talked to the girl rather than spilling your man's code. Again you deserve double drilling.

Foreign AffairsRe: Video: Mali Migrant Mamoudou Gassama Wows France With Paris Child Rescue by laudate: 1:56am On May 28, 2018
thenewtribe:
A Malian migrant has been hailed a hero after he scaled the front of a building in Paris to save a child hanging from a fourth-floor balcony.

In 30 seconds he pulls himself from balcony to balcony and grabs the four-year-old as a neighbour tries to hold the child from an adjoining flat.

President Emmanuel Macron has invited Mr Gassama to the Elysee Palace on Monday to thank him personally.

Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo also praised the 22-year-old’s heroism and said she had called him to thank him.

The drama unfolded on Saturday evening on a street in the north of the city.

Mr Gassama told journalists he had been walking past when he saw a crowd gathered in front of the building.

“I did it because it was a child,” Le Parisien newspaper quoted him saying. “I climbed… Thank God I saved him.”

I like this. wink No need for any long epistle by Macron. They should just give the Malian guy, French citizenship and EU passport, as well as a good well-paid job, if he doesn't have one already. Chikena! cheesy

Antichristus:
Can you explain how Jesus wasn't born out of wedlock? After all, Mary was only betrothed to Joseph when Gabriel came banging her (remember Eve in the Garden of Eve?) and then emotionally blackmailed Joseph not to abandon Mary but ‘act’ like Jesus’ father. Hence, Jesus was known, and referred to, by the Jewish people of his time, as the Son of the Carpenter. In essence, he was a vagabond.
Stop this silly blasphemy! angry Mary was NOT impregnated by any man. By the time Jesus was born, Joseph and Mary were already married. Why don't you go back & read the Bible and all it says about the birth of Christ?

Why would she do.... what? huh Haba! Didn't you see the part where she said she was waiting for him to pay her school fees in Ghana? shocked After all the sacrifices she did for him, without him reciprocating any of them, or even making any payback to cover such sacrifices, why on earth would she still take that risk of following him to Ghana and expecting him to foot her school bills?

How can you as a woman leave the whole of Nigeria to go to Ghana another country, expecting a common, ordinary boyfriend to pay your fees? Especially when he never refunded all you had spent on him previously? All these women of nowadays, sef.

Call it any name you hardly meet first class entrepreneur and business owner, they are not cut out for that. They are genius who can reproduce what their teacher gave them word for word. Even when they are not teaching they and get employed in multinational they are still on salary and your employer can't make you rich not even this era of casualixation, rightsizing, downsizing. An era where robot perform almost all the job. Have you not see jobless first class graduates.

What are ATM are they not robot that has taken Nigerians jobs. My brother all classes of degree are just paper it is what you can do that the market need that distinguished you in real life. Not one useless paper they gave you after 4 or 5 years. You are not talking to a novice I have more than 18 years work experience I have work in corporate organization with first class, ACCA, name it
Gbam!! sad You have said it all. What is each candidate bringing to the table in addition to his 1st class, 2nd class or 3rd class? huh Companies recruit for a variety of skills, attributes and reasons.

So U Are Saying Better To Carry Last Abi?
Most Students Who Get 1st Class Are More Innovative And Competent Organised And Focused Than Most Of There 3rd Class Counterparts Who Are Most Likely Lazy And Crave Pleasure Rather Than Hardwork. Before U Write 1st Class Off U Should Also Note That The Level Of Success Btw 1st Class And 3rd Class Is 50 To 1 Stop Using Few Examples To Justify Ur Argument, I Can Show U Exellent Students Who Are Toping Their Careers And Flying High And Most 3rd Class Student Give Up On Ever Going Forward Because The Are Lazy And Not Focused Only Few Of The Dogged Ones Make It Mostly In Non Academic Fields.1st Class Has More Advantages That Is Why Its The Most Sought After. Am Sure U Will Be Glad When Ur Kids Or Relative Bag Home A Gp Below 1.5
Don't be silly. sad Stop talking about what you do not know. Your degree certificate is just a starting point. It does NOT determine what you will be in future. Time and chance (as well as divine intervention), has a way of determining what each person will become. undecided I am speaking from practical experience. I have worked in 4 multinational firms in various countries, on multiple projects. And I have seen 3rd class graduates excel, just like those who left school with 1st class and 2nd class.

People can graduate with a 3rd class, for a variety of reasons that have absolutely NOTHING to do with laziness. sad I had a friend in Physics dept in my university who graduated with a 3rd class. In his own case, he lost his father in 2nd year during exams, and had to take time off school to do some work, in order to raise money and continue his studies. Immediately after graduation, he enrolled for a post-graduate diploma in electronics. He was employed by a telco after his PGD. undecided In his Physics dept, there has never been a 1st class for 10 years. Today. he is a high-ranking GM in a telecoms firm, and regularly interviews fresh graduates with 1st class, 2nd class and 3rd class.

How many 3rd class degree holders give up on going forward, or give up on themselves, like you claim? huh How many do you know? undecided I am yet to meet such people. Usually, they are the ones who are willing to quickly enrol for other courses, and acquire additional qualifications to boost their chances. I have worked with 1st class graduates who think they know it all, who will argue with their bosses and feel their word is law. sad And I have worked with 3rd class graduates who are humble enough to acknowledge that they do not know anything, but are willing to bow down and buckle up, in order to learn what needs to be done.

Are all 1st class graduates gainfully employed in their field of study, today? huh Are they all earning big bucks or handling posh jobs today? No!! shocked Go into the workplace and see what is happening. Even the HR person conducting the interviews, does he have a 1st class? Most of the time, the answer is No. I have gone for a job interview before, and the General Manager was intimidated by my set of degrees. After asking me several questions, he confessed "If I employ you, the management can fire me, and put you in my place!" I laughed. But it was a reality. undecided

Stop relying only on the class of your degree. sad The world out there is far tougher than you think, and the class of your degree is NOT the sole thing that determines your future, or how far you will go in life. Grow up!

I didn't read all u put up there but all I just have to tell is that u should stop deceiving ursef by consoling ursef because u graduated or would be graduating with a 3rd class. Even though we may say ur grade doesn't limit u but everyone knows that 1st class graduates stand a better chance of been successful. Show me one 3rd class graduate that excelled more than a 1st class graduate and I would show u 100 first class graduates that have excelled beyond their 3rd class counterparts.
There are many 3rd class graduates that have excelled more than 1st class graduates, in different spheres of life. undecided Even some of those with 2:2 grades, marvel at the resilience of the 3rd class graduates.

Many of those 3rd class graduates left school, knowing their grades were not fantastic, so immediately they moved ahead to acquire other ancillary qualifications in areas like accounting, ICT, marketing etc. sad They are often more willing to start working in a different area, and quick to start learning in an area unrelated to their field of study. They are quicker at thinking out of the box, faster at adapting to situations and have better social skills than your 1st class graduates, who have had their heads stuck in a book all through school. shocked

One of the guys in my team with a 3rd class, ended up becoming the protocol officer for our multinational organisation. undecided Because of his engaging social skills and ability to relate well with others, (especially the bosses), he got into the good books of the senior management. Today, he has worked in more than 8 different depts of the firm. Everyone wants him on their team. Nobody even remembers that he had a 3rd class, anymore! wink

As we speak, I know a 1st class graduate with a Masters' degree, that has been unable to get a job, 3 years after graduation. And I know a 3rd class graduate that has worked in 3 multinational firms in the last 5 years. Both of them have zero connections, and attended the same school!

And I agree totally with the person who said: “You could graduate as the best student in Finance but it doesn’t mean you will make more money than everybody else. The best graduating Law student does not necessarily become the best lawyer. The fact is life requires more than the ability to understand a concept, memorise it and reproduce it in an exam."

How many of those who were the best student in Finance in their university, ended up becoming the best professionals in their fields or making more money than their counterparts? huh How many of those who topped the law school exams ended up becoming the best lawyers in the country? Do a roll call of the richest SANs and most respected judges today, how many of them had a first class degree? shocked
