Make I build house for here...I beg madam bring one big alomo bottle. |
williams85:They both can be reprogrammed to whatever you want....SIMs & ATM Cards. Not holding briefs for the OP or indicating if this is real or fake, just saying that it is plausible. Also, SIMs have a vulnerability that makes them hackable...you can flood the SIM with messages until the SIM sends an error message containing its unique access key. Once you get that key, you can access every information stored on the SIM Card, including contacts, account numbers, PINs, passwords, etc. |

VirginFinder:Something tells me, she is not completely satisfy with her marriage. Most married guys, wouldn’t approve of her comments, especially when directed towards previous friends that she was very close to. |
dexterinc2003:Yes, you can book it without a destination, agreed one of the steps is to input a destination, this way the app can estimate cost....but you can bypass that step. |
dexterinc2003:If the customer refused to disclose their destination and insist on not leaving your vehicle, that leaves the driver with little choices.... especially not knowing the customer before, nor their intentions and this happening in the wee hours of the night. |
starstunna1313:There are many way to block it, you have to pick one that best for your situation. 1. Browsers have parental control settings, the draw back with this is, they can undo the changes. 2. There are a thousand and one free parental control apps that you can download. Some come with mechanism to prevent tempering from non authorized individuals. 3. You can also use DNS, this option is suitable if you control how they get on the internet e.g. through a WIFI, Access Point, Router, etc or you can edit the IP details of the device enter your desired DNS server that will enforce parental control...for this method, look into ‘opendns’. |
First, why not clean the device history and block access to porn? Also report them to their mum. |
biacan:Why go through surgery, when you can buy virginity kit? |
King4Roller:Shares is not a loan, it gives you an ownership right to the asset, in this case the bank. You bought an asset, the bank did not owe you a dime, you can turn around and sell those shares/asset to someone else just like you wil do to any other asset you own e.g. a car, TV, etc...and unlike these other assets, you cannot return your share back to the bank, unless the bank are offering a buy back program. All shareholders have ownership rights e.g. to Bank in proportion to their shares relative to total shares in circulation. Which means, as owners you are the one in debts if the bank is in debt, as shareholders are part of the Board of Directors and often dictate the macro directions of the Bank. In bankruptcy filings, debtors are usually given priority in payment, before shareholders are considered, as it is not fair to reward those who ran the company into the ground, before debtors. Now, you might say what am saying is not applicable to all shareholders...that is correct, because the magnitude of your voice and influence as a shareholder is directly proportional to the percentage of your shareholdings. The individual that owns the highest share percentage essentially runs the company through the Board of Directors and determines what goes on, since he/she stands to loss more if things don’t work out....so if you want to be counted, buy more shares. |
OP, change your title and diction.... They are of Nigerian origin, but are Americans and not Nigerians. |
NwaAmaikpe:Guess you didn’t read the story. At a point the woman accepted to take the blood transfusion, but her husband refused to sign the paper work and she cannot sign it herself. The Doctor asked her if there are any other relatives close by, who would sign and she said No...she even begged her husband to sign and he refused. More like, she died the day she married the guy, her death was just post-dated.....and definitely died not because of her beliefs but that of the husband. |
hotmum:Maybe, the tone and manner of your SMS put him off. Most Nigerian men still want their wives to be submissive, even when correcting them...it an ego thing. Since you know that, your husband have this problem, you have to approach him differently. Remember that, there are no winners and losers in this scenario and don’t let the fact that, you are right and he is wrong determine how you act in the situation, both of you are in the same team, when it rains it affect everyone. Send him another SMS, tell him that you are sorry if the way and manner you brought the issue before him offended him and that your goal is not to offend him. Tell him how miserable you are and how the whole thing is affecting you, the kids and the marriage. Remind him that you love him and still support him....listen men are baby and still have childish behavior in them, tap into that. Don’t stand toe to toe with him or try to challenge him head on, their are many other subtle ways of getting your points across...also tell him that, you guys major problem is lack of communication. Preferably, send him the text often until he comes around. Once he comes around, wait a few days and bring up the conversation about the communication problem that exist between you guys...never bring up the other issue....ask him what is the best way to communicate disagreements to him and the best way to resolve issues around the home....tell him how miserable you feel for him not eating your food...never bring up the fact that the food is wasted....extract a promise from him not to refuse your food again in the future. Let him feel as the king and head of the home, if he is a true husband, he will elevate you to the queen position. You may say, why are mine the one going to do all these, first of all; you were the one asking the question, second your husband is not here, so it is useless giving him advice or analyzing where he went wrong, lastly from your write up my assumptions is that, you are willing to go the extra mile for things to work out. |
Greenage:It pays, just not all the time...how else do you thing how polithiefians are able to amass their urge wealth, mansions and exotic cars? Or Yahoo/Yahoo+ guys are able to control such huge reseviour of riches, albeit momentarily? Note that, am not endorsing crime in anyway shape or form, only just stating that it pays sometimes, otherwise people wouldn’t be engaged in it’s pursuit. If you say that, crime does not pay ultimately; then you have a valid postulation upon which we can debate merits and demerits. |
7.Theological permutation and combinatio Your 7th point is not valid. Different in understanding does not invalidate one’s salvation. The scriptures you quoted even contradict your position on this point... “Romans 14:5-8 'One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind .Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.'” 1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. Lack of knowledge or lack of proper understandings will affect our spiritual growth, but will not affect our salvation. Yes, even if we unknowingly spread such limited knowledge. What the Bible kicks against is heresy and purposefully spreading wrong doctrines. To him more is given, more is expected; and if less is given to you, God is not going to hold you to a higher standard. |
Partnerbiz:I truly get your point and we are on the same page here... But, I don’t see things as only black and white, I do subscribe to the notion that, there are always shades of grey in between somewhere and each person’s mileage, circumstance is different. And frankly, the jury is still out on it being a ‘wise cause’ as the meaning of that varies. Some truly believe that, the end justify the means, while a greater portion of society believes that the means justifies the end. This is the reason, some in society today still push drug and even a few among them still push to/through Malaysia and these other countries that have zero tolerance and death penalty. Some in this category believe it is a ‘wise cause’ despite the huge risk. My position is not really to argue if it is wise or foolish or something in between; it is just to point out the fact that, there are some that will venture into something, knowing fully well that, the risk hugely out weigh the rewards and even if the chances of a reward are as little as 1%. And if you view it critically, high rewarding ventures tend to get saturated quickly or become highly competitive or only open to a select few with the right connections...this make others to seek other ventures with higher risk, knowing fully well that, the competition will be lesser, though the adventure may have a short shelf life. |
sexdoll:1. Honesty. 2. Valid visitation purpose. 3. Substance while in the US. 4. Strong ties to Nigeria. Here you go, it might be a bit long, because I intend to give as much information as can come to my memory now...and pardon the grammatical errors & spelling errors....just read in-between the lines and ask for clarification if I badly murdered English somewhere as I can't re-read everything to make corrections.... Substance while in the US. The US States and Federal government have various programs to help indigent citizens and residents in the US and these programs cost the government a ton of money. e.g. if you fall sick, you can go into an emergency hospital and can rack up bills and no one will force you to pay a dime. By law, you must be treated even if you cannot pay....you can even sue the hospital and get huge payout or settlement from them, if you detect that they mismanagement your care as a result of your indigent status. There are lawyers who will beg to take up your case without you paying them a dime, unless you win...they usually collect a percentage of your winnings. No, this benefit is not only for citizens or green card holders, anyone on the US soil is protected...Immediately an immigration officer stamped you into the US and you cross into domestic territory of the US, you have not only inalienable rights, but constitutionally protected rights enshrined in due process of the law. There are also subsidized housing, food stamp, shelter, transportation to work, free phone, healthcare, etc from the government; and anyone can get them, you just have to meet the qualification criteria and apply and keep putting pressure....Even when you do not qualify due to either crime history record or illegal residency, there are tons of charitable organizations that will give you these things free and even shelter and defend you against government legal actions, etc and these organizations get yearly grant money from the government...aka..the government picks up the tabs at the end of the day. Because of these lope-holes in the law that makes the government the default financial and support system for the indigent population, regardless of there legal status, the government sets some guidelines in places to prevent indigents from coming into the US in the first place; because they know for every indigent that comes in, they have already start losing the battle and have to spend money. As a result, for the embassy to approve your visa; you must prove to them that; you can sustain yourself and since you are not allowed to work in the US, you must prove this by showing enough cash reserve with you that you intend to take to the US. You can show this by producing bank statements, huge credit limits are also allowed, print your credit card statements showing the huge spending limit on the card. Since they look at the history in your bank statements; a sudden loop sum deposit into your account will be a red flag. You must start building this history and sustenance proof long before the statement dates you will be presenting. You can also prove this by getting a sponsor, who will guarantee for you. If you have anyone who is a US citizen or permanent resident who can guarantee your sustenance, you can ask them to write to the embassy on your behalf and also send you a letter and proof. They should include enough information to identify themselves, bank statements, etc and USCIS website also have some support form they can complete and obtain their IRS records to backup their statements. Now, many US residents have gotten burnt because of this and are very reluctant to support people. The reason being, that if you default or take any government assistance, get into the emergency room and can't pay your bill, the government go after them and can garnish their wages, also lead to their credit file getting ruin with bad reports which will lower their score. This affects them and their family seriously and can even reduce their competitiveness and ability to either stay at their current job or get the next one or even get rent, because many agencies now pull your credit & consumer report before engaging you. So, if you see someone that wants to sponsor you, please don't abuse it, as they are literally putting their future on the line on your behalf and from historical data, more sponsors get burnt at the end of the day. Note that, this substance must include your flight ticket, housing or hotel, food, etc in the US. You must prove that, you got all these covered and convincingly. Strong ties to Nigeria. You are requesting for a non-immigrant visa; which presupposes that; you will come back to Nigeria on/before the expiration of approved stay by the immigration officer at the point of entry. And there are some red flags here e.g. if you are single, since you can circumvent this by getting married in the US and your sponsor will file an adjustment of status for you in the US, thus entitling you to stay in the US until USCIS adjudicate on your sponsor's petition; you have more to prove...If you are unemployed or not fully employed or don't have good employment with good, stable income; this is also a red flag, because you have more incentive to seek a better employment in the US; so you have more to prove that you will come back to the US. Having good stable employment, landed properties, married, investments in Nigeria, etc are good ties to Nigeria that will reflect positive on you. Some people get denied because they talk too much or reveal too much information. Be focus on each of the items above and the question asked above without offering other information not requested. E.g. if someone is sponsoring you from the US and you are young, make sure that person is not an immediate relative, who can file adjustment for you or if that person is, don’t offer that information...They let aged applicants off the hook on this, but are more stringent on younger applicants. This is why they ask you the relationship between you and your sponsor, if your answer will remotely lead them to believe that, that relationship is romantic, you will be denied automatically and if the officer is very kind, he will ask you to go file for an immigration visa instead. If that individual is a parent or a potential adoptive parent, it is an automatic denial, same reason...go file for an immigration visa....If you hint on going to school or desire to go to school, automatic denial....wrong visa category, go file for F1 visa....off course, you already know, you can't hint on working or looking for work; even if it is helping your uncle weed his lawn or becoming a babysitter, since you will be taking a job from a legal US resident, they give aged parent a pass on this, since there is a cultural tradition of them visiting expecting mothers to take care of the new born baby, etc. So, if you truly want to come to the US; first look at your situation and ask the question....which visa category is best suited for my current situation? If you are young, no investment, no properties, no good stable job, etc...the odds are very high against you getting a B1/B2 visa..but you stand a higher chance of getting an F1 or K1/K3 visa, explore that routes instead. There is also H1b visa, housemaid visa, etc..in fact, there are more than 180 visa categories in the US..research them and find the one best suited for you. Remember that, if it is a non-immigrant visa, nothing stops you from seeking an immigrant visa once you land the shores of the US, but you must not make that known to the interviewing officer...so, instead of rushing to the embassy and creating a rejection history that will come back to hurt you, sit back, do your research, build your evidence history and when you are ready, apply and you will see how simple it is. I will not go into points one and two, since you did not ask for them....but a brief note on point two, since point one is very clear....The truth is, there are many opportunities and valid reasons to visit the US and the US want you to come. They want you to come and spend your foreign hard earned money in the US...They need your talent and potentials. What they are against, are people who can't contribute to their economy or will become a drag on the economy...forget the current brouhaha with Trump and his statements about immigrants, those are political talks. Trump is targeting his base, he is giving them red meat...that is not the position of the US and it will not stand the test of time. Also, there are many conferences, seminars, conventions, etc that take place each year in the US and that you can research and get invited to. If you didn’t see any suitable conference, chances are your tribe have an association in the US and they all organize conventions frequently, reach that to local their website, email them asking for their next convention date and requirements to get an invitation to attend the convention. Lastly, if you intend to skip on your legal stay, i.e. not going back to Nigeria at the expiration of your permitted stay...stay in the North East, especially in a democrat strong hold, avoid South especially Red Stated, don't commit crimes, resist the temptation of driving as that will easily expose you...Though, I don't support this as you will push yourself to a tight corner...normally you are given a 2 years visa and the immigration officer will stamp a 6 month stay on your passport...use those 6 months to study the terrain and build your network and map out your plan, then go back....then come back again e.g. for a conference, seminar, convention, etc....and start executing your plans, while finding a legal way of adjusting your status legally or getting an immigration visa that will allow you to stay longer. Also, at the port of entry; make sure the story you told the interviewing officer in Nigeria matches the one you are telling the immigration officer...Also, if you have any chat, email, letters, documents, contacts, etc that may contradict your story or cast doubt as to your intentions of visiting or may reveal your intent to seek an immigration visa while in the US...make sure you delete them...the immigration officer have the right to search your belongings, your phone, etc....e.g. you can't be coming for a convention and having printed resumes in on your person or in your bag....or coming for a tourist visit and have a romantic chat or email with someone in the US. Though not currently mandated for Nigerian travelers, but clean up your social media life, posts, etc...if you have to create a new/alternate ones that build a good character, please do...immigration officers are now allowed to ask for your social media handle and they can check your history....Yes, they say you providing them is optional...but imagine going to an interview and the interviewer ask you to provide the password to your email account, but tell you, it is optional to provide it...do you think you will get the job, if you refused?..Now this is an extreme example, but you get the drift...the key here is, prepare far ahead. Well, I told you; it is going to be long! |
Partnerbiz:Not me, but many will do it...Have you forgotten the saying that goes like this...the higher the risk, the higher the reward?. You will agree that, some people have this high adrenaline rush for risky under takings. It’s definitely not for the average joe, but doesn’t me that, some in our larger society wouldn’t undertake it. |
doctimonyeka:So, you didn’t figure out, it was a scam? |
Maria100:How did he shame the lady publicly? He didn’t post any info about the lady, just their chat exchange. I am very sure, he will eventually give her something, as we didn’t know how the chats ended. BTW, if a total stranger approached me out of no where begging for help, I have the right to response however I like. I have had similar encounters with telemarketers, who will call me out of no where, wanting to sell one thing or the other, I simply interrupt them in the middle of their sales speech and ask them to put my number in their ‘do not call list’ and hang the phone. Some will call back and say that is rude... seriously? You called me without invitation and interrupted my privacy and you want to determine how I respond? |
petkoffdrake2:If you look at it critically, the curses are working hence the country is not progressing and NEPA is not improving. After cursing these politicians, we go back and vote them into power to lead us. We are in essence asking cursed individuals to lead us, no wonder we are not progressing. For NEPA, you can attest to that; it’s like each time a billion is spent on improving NEPA, we get darkness instead. So bros, the curse is working at full speed. |
AnodaIT:The keyword is talent, it is those who lack talent, and refuse or lazy to work in order to earn an honest wage; that display their cleavage, which they hope to turn into a talent per adventure it will attract goodwill and cash. |
mekaboy:Your stats are way wrong, we don’t even have that that percentage number of Nigerians living illegally in the US. If you say, that a good number of Nigerians obtain valid US visa using some form fake documentation, fake stories, lies, embellishment,etc...then you have a point that we can debate. The truth is, the US visa process is very straight forward and thy tell you want they are looking for, why go seek for a visa if you don’t met the requirements? It is like apply for a job, which you clearly know from reading the requirements that you don’t qualify for and blaming the company for not hiring you or for not lowering their standards or comparing them to other companies who have a much lower standard. You are not predestined to work in that company, you can seek employment at the other companies who have a lower standard or where you meets their requirements...but, If you desire to work for this company, go back acquire the requirements that they are looking for and reapply. There are four basic things the US embassy is looking for before giving you a visitor’s visa. 1. Honesty. 2. Valid visitation purpose. 3. Substance while in the US. 4. Strong ties to Nigeria. And you can prove these four points in a variety of ways. |
michlins:If it doesn’t work, people wouldn’t be trying it. It is the law of large number, some will make it through and the rest will be caught. This same analogy can be said of breaking into banks, despite the high risk; people still do it, because there are some ‘success stories’. But, I have yet to hear, read or see someone planing on breaking into Central Bank, despite the fact that more money are available for the taking there, you know the reason? You get it! No success story, no upside....the risk in doing it is 100% and the reward is 0%. If the Central Bank risk becomes 99% and the reward a mere 1%, people will start trying it, perhaps they might be among the 1% that hit the jackpot and by the law of large numbers, some will make it and the vast majority will fail. So, when you see humans engaging in some type of activity, be it genuine, fake, legal, illegal, etc it’s because there is a percentage chance of hitting their target. |
Samleen:Your research is sound, but your conclusions and application of the findings from your research is faulty. Very simple, you are putting the cart before the horse. It is not the denomination of a Nation’s country that determines it’s value, inflation plays a central & dominant role. When a country starts experiencing hyper inflation, the buying power of her currency takes a nose dive, e.g. and using some of desired outcome...what use to cost 1x 20 kobo coin, with inflation will now cost 250x 20 kobo coins, which is = 1x 50 Naira note. As you can see, it will cost the country more to produce and maintain 250x 20 kobo coins vs just 1x 50 Naira note. Also imagine the lost in productivity, performance, efficiency and time in counting, carrying, storing, securing 250x coins vs just 1x 50 Naira note. Imagine the drag that this will be on the whole country, imagine carring 250,000x 20 kobo coins along with you to school just to pay your 50k school fees. Yes, I purposely made this example for you to see the impracticability of your solution. You will say, but for a high value transaction like that, larger notes should be used...which begs the question, what is the use of these coins then, if we can’t use them in every day transactions? But, look at it....if our government gets their acts together and inflation start taking a nose dive, the buying power of our currency will increase...all of a sudden, you can buy a car with just 1,000 Naira note, people will definitely start refusing to carry 1,000 around or keeping them at home, because it becomes a huge security risk...Also in this scenario a carton containg 24 pure waters now selling for 5 Naira and you only want to buy one bottle or sachet...the market woman will reject your 5 Naira note, because she can’t afford to give you change...or try give the bus conductor your 5 Naira note for a 20 kobo trip and see how he will curse your generation while throwing your money back at you. All these combined effects will drive the demand for higher notes down and demand for lesser notes and coins up and through the roof and CBN will response by gradually reducing the circulation of higher notes and introduction of lower ones and coins. If you notice, this value and buying power downwards and upwards movement is related to a single currency, when you plot this movement against other currencies e.g. the dollar, which didn’t have this type of dramatic shift, you will notice that the value of the Naira has increased against these other currencies. |
I have never met a lady who ‘doesn’t have a boyfriend’. Therefore, a Yes to that question does not discourage guys these days. ....just saying. |
Gucciboss:Agreed, in US they do that as well. The telecomm providers are very powerful, sometimes trying to influence 3gpp. HSPA is 3gpp release 7 and it based on GERAN and UTRAN, 3gpp even defined it as GSM/EDGE technology. LTE at release 10 was not initially coined even a 4G technology as it did not command the speed specifications of 4G. LTE Advance is the true 4G technology, but it looks like the telecomm providers are winning and 3gpp are starting to dummy things down and accepting LTE as 4G. |
Gucciboss:HSPA+ is not 4G, stop posting telecomm marketing giggles from google. HSPA+ is actually a 3G technology and not anywhere close to 4G. If you want to learn about telecommunication evolutions, pay a visit to 3gpp website. Do not believe anything the telecomm provide tell you or put on their fosters or posted online or even the 4G sign on your phone, they are all marketing nonsense. |
dandollaz:Oga which one bi 3.75G? There is nothing like that, unless you are referring to HSDPA or HSPA+ which are rated 3.5G. |
modelmike7:You didn’t read the whole thing or didn’t understand it? They separated and he moved out of town....but got back to finish up his evil imaginations. We should always pray not to fall into the wrong hands, when it comes to relationships; otherwise someone that is willing to take their own life, there is no amount of running you do, they will come looking for you. I always say, get a restraining order from the court and move out of town, but for diehard ones, those actions will only delay them....your only prayers unfortunately would be that, they catch a bullet or sickness or something and die first....or you go into witness protection with new identities, but not likely in Africa. |

.. Can we talk on WhatsApp so that you give me steps or post it here for me.. Thank you very much
