America almost nuked the moon when Russia landed on the moon before them. They became paranoia, mad and crazy they almost destroyed the world. In this midst of all these, many believe they carried out the greatest hoax of the century claiming to land on the moon. Whether this moon landing is a hoax or not is a big discussion but america actually tried to nuke the moon to show that they're greater than Russia - research it

You are on to something but your analysis are not true.

Yes Project A119 by the America was to nuke the moon, however it happened around 1958 and Russian did not land on the moon until 1976.

USA beat them to the moon in 1969. The reason for Project A119 was for the US to showcase her superior because at that Russia was head in their research to get to the moon.

Ironically, it was not only US that was planning to nuke the moon, during the same period around 1958, Russia was also cooking Project E4, whose goal was to also nuke the moon.

Both plans were abandoned and made both sides to sign the Outer Space treaty in 1967 promising each side that such a idea would not be repeated again.

Abuventure:
they lie to you about Apollo. No one has gone to the moon. Russia is a big name even USA is aware

Russia landed lunar-24 on in the moon in 1976, this lunar-25 was their next try after almost 50 years.

Between 1969 and 1972, the USA landed on the moon six times and is the only country that have landed men on the moon.

You can educate yourself on this by either visiting the closest library or hit Google.

Absolutely, there is no way we can survive with out redenomination of naira. Once naira close the maximum threshold of #1000 per a dollar we can remove a zero . Making 100 naira equal to $1. As of 2013 rate.

hmmmm, that how the end effect would be with foreign currencies but, that is the sweet part on the surface, but it is not actually how currency Re domination is done….

This how it is done using your above example:

The CBN will create another currency, let’s call it xNaira, they can also create this currency with other Africa countries or the whole of Africa and call it whatever name they like…

Now CBN will say, 1 xNaira = 10 Naira.

Automatically, if you are holding 1000 Naira notes, your bank will collect them and give you 100 xNaira notes.

Exchange rate is not affected technically because 100 xNaira notes will now exchange for $1.

The problem now become, if you are working and assuming you are making 10,000Naira/monthly, the next time you go to collect your pay, you will be paid 1,000 xNaira instead of 100,000 Naira.

This will lead to further devaluation, because some goods and services are not going to be reviewed down at the same percentage rate….eg market women that use to sell one modu of garri for 400 Naira, would be cheated if you give her only 40 xNaira, even after explaining the whole thing for her, she might be only willing to take e.g. 60 to 80 xNaira, etc xNaira from you, which represents almost 100% inflection.

Your intentions are noble, but putting out a direct link to her FB and WhatsApp on that website may not end well.


Happy birthday to your beautiful woman. Please keep her happy always, but ensure you lead her well.

If I understand what you meant, I don’t think the ‘..it may not end well.. part of your message is accurate.

It take two mature adults to come together and start a relationship and when they do, both of them made that decision despite all other options or choices out there and available to them. And I hope they both are true to their confessions that, they love and cherished each other, especially when the love is very young and strong along with the bond.

If through more exposure as in this case, one of them decide to seek other options for love, I believe in the end, it is a good thing for both of them. As they had just found out very early that, they were actually over their heads and that thing they thought was love, was actually infatuation and nothing more.

Yes, breakups are very hurtful, but they are necessary for one to find their true love.

A broken relationship is far more blissful and desirable than a broken marriage.

That is why many reputable sites are now mandating two factor authentication.

Upgrade to two factor authentication to be ahead.

hmmmm, this one is truly hard to judge.

Yes, the guy no try, but on a flip side; he dodged a bullet and a time bomb, and this appear to be the event that showed the lady’s true character.

They are not fit for each other and any possible reconciliation should not involve marriage. He escaped a time bomb and should go and give thanks to God!

obembet:
Just that some boyfriend no get shame... Imagine a guy turn to a begger to your wife to be sugar daddy.

Shameless guys everywhere

In these type of relationships, the lady is actually a a low-key sugar mummy to the ‘boyfriend’. The guy may actually have a true girlfriend on the side…he definitely won’t settle for this sugar mummy, himself and the sugar daddy are using the girl.

What is Government actually doing?

Is it Security?
Is it providing good roads?
Is it providing water?
Is it providing jobs?

We don’t want Government to do everything because we know they can’t…..but we expect them to do something, but they are not doing anything except sharing the money!

DestinedForGrea:
Thanks for this.

But what if they cut ties with me and then I need them in the future?

No body make it by playing safe I their comfort zone. Very soon you will be a man with a wife and kids and you need to be cut from your current situation to learn life skills.

Sit your elder siblings and parent down or write a letter if you think you can’t muster the courage to talk to them politely face to face.

Explain to them that you love and cherish them and are truly grateful for their support and concerns, tell them the current situation in depressing to you and it is affecting you mentally and that the new place though you don’t know what would become of it later…but for now, it gives you joy, you become very excited with new lease of life and that it is not fair for them to threat you about cutting families ties and that you truly want to exploit this opportunity and they should please see reasons with you.

That you are telling them this or writing them for the deep respect you have for them and do not want to ignore them and leave.

Explain to them how this job would enhance your mental wellbeing, how it would help cure your depression, how it would infuse you with energy to face life challenges, etc.

These are your siblings and parents and they mean well for you, and they would not read that letter and want to still insist that you remain depressed just to please their sense of your safety. All you need is to convince just one person among them, that would develop a crack among them and it will be that person that would explain to them in the language they would understand….they may just still be seeing as a kid and want to protect you from self-hurt, but at some point they have to cut the cord.

what is her reasons for not wearing them?

I will totally forgive and forget her.

obaidan:
If making marriage work is an achievement, then getting married is an achievement.....we agree that graduating from uni is an achievement, but something has to be achieved before u get admitted to the university i.e. passing JAMB and other entrace exams which is also an achievement. You've got to achieve one thing to have a chance of achieving the next. Ofcourse it is obvious that making marriage work is the bigger/ultimate achievement but that doesnt mean getting married or even building a stable relationship with ur partner is not an achievement. It may not be the ultimate, but its still an achievement.

I will disagree with you that for marriage to be an achievement, it has to be universal and true in all cases. Achievements are basically personal, what's an achiement to you may not be an achievement to me. What i think is universal is that, whatever goal u set for yourself and meet is an achievement

So what has the 16 years old teenager who was married by her parents in Norther Nigeria to an elderly rich man in the community who has promised her family lands, cattles and food achieved?

If wishes were horses beggars would ride.....Nigeria and her Politicians are a laughing stock, they steal the country dry and gave it a matching order to work?

obaidan:
Because it is reaching a goal. Achievement is defined as a thing done successfully, typically by effort, courage, or skill. So do you now get why it is an achievement.

If u dey wear size 14 before and u wan do size 10 by december, when u reach that goal, u have achieved something and it is an achievement.
If you set goals to help the needy and maybe in few months u relaize u have helped one or 2 persons, it is an achievement
If in your heart of hearts, you hope to get married someday, when u get married it becomes anachievement...while you remain unmarried, u have not achieved what u set out to achieve.

However that you have not achieved your goals does not make you a failure and shouldnt make u unhappy, infact you may still have many who have achieved lots of their goals looking up to you.

Again, marriage in itself is not an achievement. making marriage work is an achievement....Not everyone that marries put in effort, and courage and not everyone that gets into it sets it as a goal.

For marriage to be an achievement, that statement has to be universal and true in all cases. Young adults get into marriage every day in the North, but marriage was not a goal for them, they did not put any effort into it and it is not a success by any standard as far as they are concern.

Many people sit and waits for the right man to come around to ask for their hands in marriage...there was no achievement on their part.

AgbadoDie:
I am already making up my mind to move on and want to let her know in the day. My house rent expires this august, either they renew it, or they find their way, but am moving away without her. But this has thought me a lesson about ladies again - hurtful lessons for years.

Leaving the house for them is a very coward move. May be that has been your problem; you did not assert who is the man earlier in this relationship and if you don’t correct it, I am sorry to break the news to you, your next relationship will not be any different.

It is your house, you invited them in; be a man for once, stand your grounds, face them and ask them to leave.

Stand up for yourself, don’t fold and run away to set up shop somewhere else, until you confront this, it will happen again in your next relationship!

lanrefront1:
I said it, you're clueless because u just watch cnn. Because it's CNN that keeps saying there is no evidence.

Meanwhile there solid undeniable evidence about Joe and hunter Biden's corruption. Infact the evidences are so much they are overwhelming.

You've been brainwashed without even knowing it.

Try listening directly to the proceeding of the Judiciary Oversight Commitee instead of what CNN tells you

Will by chance state one of the ‘overwhelming evidence of corruption against Joe Biden’?

Yes. I watched the Judicial Oversight Committee in the House and the GOP star witness in his testimony did not say anything against Job Biden, please point me to one.

BTW, I am currently watching Fox News at the moment waiting for the Fulton County indictments to be unsealed. This will four indictments from four different districts in the US, Trump is done stick a folk in it!

hammerT:
Cococandy, i foresee civil war, if the witch hunt against trump dont end or anything happen to him.


When a man can face so much charges and still be in the leading poll, speaks volumes about the disposition of the nation.

Ignore those polls, they absolutely indicates nothing about how Americans will vote come next year.

Most Americans don’t turn to Presidential Elections until the last quarter of the Election year. These polls are coming from diehard Trump supporters who would him in come what May.

The polls also shows the reluctance of his fellow Primary running mates on the Republican side to criticize him and take him to shred, only Crist Christy is doing that.

What this May mean is, Trump will win the Republican Primary but will be a very weak National Candidate next year….this is the fear of many Republicans but they don’t have the balls to criticize him.

How is marriage an achievement?

I am still looking for a f u c k to give, I have still not found any....So, I do not give a f U C K!

Not excusing her father, but the story no complete….what did she do to warrant her father doing all that to her?

Your father can’t lock you out for an extended period of time if you had not done anything wrong, especially a father who acknowledged his excesses and apologized.

Nataliace:
The younger brother to my husband occasionally comes to visit us. My husband takes good care of him and support his business dealings.

He trusts his brother that he can travel for weeks leaving us together.

Recently my brother in-law's movement towards me changed.

He sometimes rub his hands on my back as if he was just being friendly. He made strange and unusual move towards me several times and I was uncomfortable with that.

I warned him that if he doesn't stop I will report to my husband.

My husband travelled last week and his brother has begun his behaviors of unexpectedly touching my body and showing up in my room or just following me to the kitchen whenever I am preparing meal.

I thought of reporting to his brother but I don't want to be the reason they will be enemies for life.

How do I stop him so this remain between two of us?

This is sincerely becoming unbearable.

Lies!

The other day, you cooked up a story that, your mother-Inlaw and sister-Inlaw are stay with you, today it is your brother-Inlaw coming to seduce you, I guess in their presence or you want to garnish the story further by saying they have left?

By the way when did you get married, just two weeks ago, your boyfriend said he want to move-in with you.,,🙄

Born2Freak:
As I am writing this, my friend's sister is considering divorce just after 5 months of marriage. She recently learnt that her husband is a serial debtor- a specialist in borrow-posing (borrowing things and acting as if you own them).

The husband in question is from a rich family but he spends money recklessly and borrows recklessly. His family was covering up for him and she thought that the man is responsible.

The point is that the woman (my friend's sister) was fooled by her husband's rich family and big house in Lekki. The family has a house in Lekki while the man rents in Ibeju Lekki.

But can we only blame the man? If my friend's sister was wise enough to do investigation into the man she was marrying, she would not have married him. She saw a rich family and didnt ask questions. The man does not really have a job. He just helps to manage the family's properties. The man also parties like a wild animal. But because he spends on her, she believed that he was a "big boy"

Now, the reality has set- loan apps and police have come looking for the husband at their apartment. The wife is getting different threatening phone calls and the husband quickly ran to the village to chill.

Please, for any woman that is going to get married, please do your proper investigation.
-Is your husband to be financially responsible (does he have a steady job or business?)
-Does your husband to be flirt with other girls or have cheating spirit?
-Is he a wife beater?
-Is he respected in his own family?

Open your eyes. Ask questions and be careful. Marriage is not a joke. My friend's sister is depressed today because she was carried away by greed and didnt look into her husband.

You forgot to include that, your friend is greedy and also a gold digger.

She clearly know or had the means to know that her intending husband have no meaningful job before saying I do.

She instead ignored all the red flags 🚩 and went all in, they are match in heaven, who will now marry the husband if she succeeds in divorcing him, please ask her to stay put, she can’t run away now that all the glamors are gone!

BoldBrainz:
Shonubi has been talking nonsense for about a week now!!

To the best of my knowledge, there is no medium of remittance from the Diaspora that is outside the various operating windows run by banks and financial institutions.

There's no way you can lay hands on dollars sent to you from a sibling abroad, if you don't walk into a banking hall. All the flutterwave, Remitta, etc.., run transactions across borders, yes. But they basically deal with numbers, where you stand to receive alerts into your Nigerian accounts or domiciliary accounts, as the case may be. But there is no channel that hands over paper currency to an individual as proceeds from diaspora remittance, if not banks and other money houses.

So what's this load of garbage this clown is vomitting?!

Like he stated, they are capturing those into the system, I think he is talking about thousands of diasporas who travel into the country every week for one reason or the other with their foreign currency in their pocket.

He wants those monies to also be captured in the system. But he is more clueless than I thought if he expect these people to take their eg dollars to a bank and get N450 in exchange instead of to the black market where they will get almost twice as much!

So he want diaspora visiting the country or who send money back home to their families to take their dollars and foreign currencies to the bank and get N450 on each dollar instead of the street and get N950? Approximately 100% instant lost in value!

If na him money he go fit do am? Nonsense and clueless people! Can that same Nigeria walk into that same bank, give them N450 and get $1 back?

Make liquidity available to everyone at the bank and no one would go to the black market, it will die a natural death!

They are just bluffing, why kill the only bargaining chip they have on their arms?

Ofunaofu:
One of the most foolish decision ever made by this calamitous Tinubu government is the exchange rate unification nonsense


Instead of putting measures in place to drag the parallel market exchange rate down from 750/dollar to meet the official exchange rate of 460/dollar, the government move the official exchange rate up to meet the parallel exchange rate masking it as exchange rate unification.


After he must have removed subsidy from petrol without any single local refining capacity


How did we get here as a Nation

Chief Economist,

What should they have done differently to drag the black market rate to be at par with the official rate?

The true and accurate Naira rate is the black market rate, that is the rate determined by the forces of supply and demand.

The so-called ‘official rate’ was an artificial one prop-up by Government subsidy to enrich a few persons at the top who get cheap money from government and go sell it.

Nigeria problem is endemic and cannot be solved overnight, we gotten into this over many decades and even if you start getting it, it will take years if not decades to dig ourselves out.

The first and foremost thing is to totally rid out corruption, introduce public firing squad and zero tolerance on corruption especially on public officials.

The trial should just be three months, if you can’t give account of your stewardship, it should be firing squad straight.

After establishing that, we should then start looking at good policies.

Lonestar124:
When God want bless a marriage, it make the onlookers to see it as it will not work out.

But trust me, the marriage will make up a lasting happy couple and family....you will not understand..only me!!

U no dey fear God?

Where and when did God say that? Chapter and verse please?

Una go just dey open mouth dey lie for God head by passing your personal opinions as if it is what God said, stop using His in vain, there are severe and irreversible consequences!

cococandy:
It’s the way y’all pick and choose which part of the Bible the Bible is applicable for me

If the man is impotent or not virile, can she cheat too? As long as she respects him?

You didn’t answer my direct question though, is it because the answer will betray your current position on this issue?

If your blood brother is married to a lady and that marriage has produced zero children, what would you do?

I very well know you will be in the forefront of those making his life unbearable until you get a new wife or get a side-chick pregnant!

cococandy:
Pretty sure you guys believe in “for better or worse” but only where the woman is concerned though.

Following this logic any wife is justified to step out on her husband if she’s not getting what she expected from him when they got married even though it’s no fault of his?

My sister calm down Jesus, married women have been stepping out since infinity, it is nothing new!

I am 100% that, if this man is your brother, you will be the one to introduce the new wife to him sharp sharp.

Let’s not pretend that, we don’t understand our culture and traditions and the pressure that man must have been under.

Plus, he housed and keep his first wife and never neglected her on account of her barrenness.

Nigeria women, una no dey copy better thing from Bible self….Sarah was in a similar situation and he profound a wonderful solution.

Nigeria ladies, God forbid if your marriage is barren be the Sarah in that family, go out and look for a young and delicate young maid for him, that can bear children through her for you, he will worship for eternity.

IconicR:
Second paragraph is where most women get it wrong , how can you not interfere in your husband's dealings? Why then did you marry him if you don't want to interfare in all his dealings. Men are very cunning and manipulative, they will always come up with lines that will give them space for cheating e.g don't pick his calls, don't check his phones, don't question his movements and all that. A relative of mine was doing her traditional wedding and all those elders (men) were busy giving advise that'll enable the man to cheat, each time they give the advise I'll giggle with a bombastic side eyes till my mom stylishly summoned me and took me inside my aunt's room 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Checking his phone would prevent nothing, more so for a 15 years old marriage with no kids, it is a handful Nigeria men that would stay and she must have seen the red flags but wished off.

Dexy4yah:
I dated this lady for few years... doing our courtship we had unprotected sex.
I later relocated to another state because of my studies....that's how the relationship died.

She later got married

After about 13years of not hearing from eachother....one day my phone rang and behold she was the one...she called to tell me a secret...she said her first child is mine and not her husband's.
That doing our courtship she took in, she tried to abort it but it didn't work out for her, she didn't tell me about it because she knew that i was not ready to father a child at that time.

It was at that moment that she met this guy who is now her husband...the guy hasten everything and got married to her...she made him believe that the pregnancy is his own whereas that's was not the true...the boy is 8years old now.
She said her conscience has been disturbing her that's why she opened up to me.

I told her never to let the husband know about it and let the child be the husband's own....let her just forget everything about me being the father of the child so that her marriage won't crumble.
She has a loving husband and she is blessed with three kids aside the boy.


But she made one comment that when the boy reach 22years she will tell him who his real father is....she insisted. But am against it, i told her not to try it because if she end up telling the boy about it there is every possibility that the husband will end up knowing about it and i wonder how he is going to react towards it.

(Women can keep secret sha)
Please i hope i did the right thing??

Cook n bull fairytale by moonlight!

You dated this lady, had unprotected sex with her during your courtship and you left and didn’t hear from each other.

13 years after she called you to tell you a secret that, that unprotected sex you guys had about 13 years ago resulted in a boy…..and the boy is now 8 years old.

I guess she carried the pregnancy for four years? You can’t even lie!

Suicide by cops, plain and simple and he had it coming!
