HeyHey:
The reduced fare is for students right?, and can my Naira card fund it. The app asked for Swish

Yes, for students.
I don't think your naira card can pay more than 20 usd.
I think you can use card.

What is her name and where did she elope from Port Harcourt?

HeyHey:
Thank you.

Can the SL card be gotten immediately and used that day?, or na queue too?,

Sure, just recharge it and boom!

same with the app. You can buy the ticket on the app and it will remain there until you activate it before it starts counting.

The ashewo part dey make me laff

Sorry to bother y'all.
The only thing I know my dad does for me is to pay my school fees and he leaves me with no other choice again.
Let me clear y'all a lot about him.

The little work that I use to do here in the village, was to get small money for myself and the girl that I brought home. This man has been relying on me all this while to be bringing money for feeding and any household stuff.

I'm tired!!

Did I actually read well that you brought a girl home? Or was that a typo?
And do you mean your dad pays your school fees, up till your 300level?

Hello People, an update on transportation. I just came back from Greece and through Arlanda and can better describe how you leave the airport using the SL bus (the cheapest). As you are leaving, just ask where you get the busses (it is on terminal 4). When you get there, just walk out and look out for a bus booth. The signs will lead you there (local bus is what you look out for). If you are confused, just ask someone where to get the SL bus. Board the bus to Marsta where you ride the train to the city or any other part of stockholm.

The next thing I will pot is about shopping, my experience only.

Cheers people.

Nigeria, when will all these end? Chai! We are still far behind. This curse must end.

chatinent:
Why will anyone want to join Ukraine to fight Russia while you have bigger problems in Nigeria?

To solve their problem in nigeria.

Those saying they should have fought boko haram instead, don't you know fighting for Ukraine is more lucrative? If you die fighting boko haram, no be waste be that?

Well, they just closed to ris it in a foreign land, either you succeed or die trying. For naija, no hope for some people.
By the way, this is Russia's side of the story, they have also sustained heavy losses.

By the way, who likes what russia is doing? I just pray all these mindless kiilings stop.

hmn, didn't I hear that ESN killed and paraded 5 ebubeagu soldiers in Anambra state?

I doubt if mbaka wrote this. He releases videos. If you don't watch him make reference to this, or do it verbally, then it is probably fake

I thought you needed prayers or advice, I didn't know you'll be asking for money. That's not wise, you'll see it as 'free' and waste it.
If you need clothes and shoe to start work, borrow shoe and clothes from your peers.

As for the mess you put yourself into, when you are truly ready to get out of it, then you get yourself out of it.

40k was more than enough to start a job, and perhaps pay some out of your debts.

lifestyle1:
I Never said there's any agreement between us or any contract.

Please read my post again.

I didn't explicitly say so too, but your post suggested you have some sort of agreement with the person.

I had mentioned how you need monthly tickets to move around Stockholm at a much cheaper fee. If you live very close to school, you can walk to school, or get a bicycle to move around, or if you own a car. In that case, since you don't need to move around daily using the public transport, you may not need the monthly card but pay-as-you.

If you need to use the train and bus, then let's go.
The major company handling the public transport system in Stockholm is called SL (logo shown on the green card). There are two main plastic cards you need, the blue and the green (first image). The blue card is cheaper (the green has some privileges I don't really need as a student).

There are two ways to recharge your card:
1. Go to the train station and ask the desk officer (someone is there 24/7 ) to recharge your card accordingly, you can pay cash here. You hand him/her your card and he loads it using the small device beside him and hands you your card. You are good to go.

2 The second means is you doing it yourself using the SL app (can be downloaded from play store). You can buy the discounted ticket (make sure you have downloaded your Student's ID on your phone, incase if ticket control comes checking for tickets in the train). Once they flash their device on your card or the QR code on your phone screen, the next thing they will ask is your student ID (it has to be the one on the student ID app (STUK.CO)).

To enter the bus, you place your card (the blue on the blue surface marked 1 in the 2nd image and the green card or the QR code generated from your phone on the glass screen with green borders marked 2 in the pix). If you are using your debit card to PAYG, then place it on the same surface you use the green card and QR code from your phone.

At the train station, you do the same to automatically open the little gate for passage. Once you are inside the train station, you don't need to use your card anymore until you exit at any station. When exiting, the door opens automatically without using any card (na commot you dey commot).

You should also download the map that shows the entire train routes in Stockholm (3rd image) from play store, it is called 'stockholm metro map'). The only routes not there are the trams (the trains inside the cities and inner ciities, eg, tvabanna and Roslagsbanan). This will show you which train to enter and how to go from.where to where.

Finally, you need to download an app 'sthlm travelling' . This tells you the details of combination of trains and buses (including the train and bus numbers) to take from one address in stockholm to another address. This is a very useful tool.

I don tire, later if I remember any other thing I go add, have lots to do.

The next thing I want to drop here is transport within Stockholm

lifestyle1:
There's a reason I'm asking here. He may be relunctant to give me all the information I need.

But if I have all the information I need, I will know what's possible and what's not when I approach him.

Thank you for your input.

Why would he be reluctant when you have an agreement to go and work with him? He is, like someone has told you, in the best position to advise you because he knows the details of your contract with him.

He seems to be the best of the lot. But for me, if I will cost my vote, it is for Peter Obi

eazzzy1:
I didn’t say that. I don’t know how but I interpreted this post to be why do men get mad when a woman cheat, hence my response. Cheating isn’t good on both sides. Betrayal is betrayal regardless of the gender of the cheat.

I like that. Betrayal is betrayal

Qinglong:
Seems some women think men are entitled to cheat as well.

I was on a bus the other day, and I heard a woman complaining to the driver about her young friend leaving a rich young man because he simply cheated on her. According to the angry lady, her friend was foolish to do so because all men are naturally cheats and are inclined towards doing so cause it's apparently an inherent trait of ours.

Funny enough, the married bus driver did not attempt to argue with her.

I wrote about my experience with female colleagues. Our society has made many women to believe that. But I 100% certain it's not all women that think that way.

Highman56:
Becos we run things

That is changing my friend

baretalk:
A woman that does that is a LovePeddler.

An the man is called what? Just ashewo?

eazzzy1:
The reason why men get hurt from cheating is one word betrayal.

Interesting. You a man cheating is not betrayal to his partner?

Jman06:
Traditionally, men are expected to provide for the family and we all agree with that. Same tradition also permits men to marry more than one wife and also have concubines. Modern women want to pick the former and jettison the later.

That's not possible!

Hmn, that tradition. Things change when it is no longer fashionable.

Godoverevery:
There absolutely nothing you can do about so far men still pay bride price.

Over there in Europe a man doesn't need to pay bride price and the bride family don't give list

Here in Africa do you no what men go through and have to pay for before getting a wife.....is that equity

The employer decides how he wants things to an employee....if the employee isn't ok with the term he/she can resign......hope you understand

Lol. So na buy you buy her? Ok na. But taking a decision to 'buy' is translated to mean you love her enough to go for the 'purchase'. And if you love her, then you don't have to hurt her.

Pierohandsome:
it means you didn't understand everything explained.

Until a religion starts teaching polyandry and it is acceptable ,then we can talk. But for now,no religion promotes that,infact it is only Christianity that forgives .in other religions, If a woman is caught with another man,they will stone her to death. This grandstanding you are putting up is baseless and doesn't shift the reality of what I am telling you.

If a woman you know wants to test the severity of this abomination you are promoting, let her commit adultery, then you will understand the brutal consequences she will face ,even if her husband is a Chronic womanizer,that will not count on that day.


The society including her fellow women will curse and mock her,if it is in Kano, or other society not Christians, they will stone her to death and burn her to ashes,maybe by then,you will understand better

The point I am making also is that not all religions are known to all people. And, in some other climes, the woman will cheat and apologise if necessary, or indicate a desire to quit the marriage, but it is never the man's exclusive right to cheat.

I tell you, things are changing in Nigeria. Women are cheating now without the risk of any stone in some circles. I am not encouraging women to cheat, but I am calling out men to stop cheating, there are consequences too, heavy ones.

Pierohandsome:
you say culture and tradition. Culture and tradition is derived from religeous reference books.

No religion in the world that permits a woman having 2 partners ,forget perverts trying hard to scuttle morality. That gays and homosexuality is legal in some countries doesn't make it acceptable. Infact, Christianity is the only religion that promotes monogamy,even at that,it is still debatable,not everyone is a Christian. Other religions permits polygamy . In other religions men don't cheat because they see it as normal

Please,let us stop comparing men and women.women aren't given that right,it is for men only.

A man can have multiple partners but still love his wife, he won't trade his wife for any other woman except a bad wife. But the moment a woman starts cheating,the man is finished. Once a woman starts cheating,her love and affection has died for her husband, that is evil on his door,throw that woman out or you are gone within a short time

@thebolded, you may wanna add 'known to you'. Religious beliefs are formed everyday, some may start teaching that. If one really loves his wife, knowing cheating or having another partner aside her definitely makes her jealous and feel bad, then he shouldn't do it. No man can love two women with an undivided heart. If the man must cheat, then he shouldn't feel bad when the woman flirts and cheats, after all, nothing commot from the thing, it is still there for him after she has cheated. Na draw be that.

Emma2Seconds:
Doing Get Levels !!!

I hear am. So women are beginning to say now. That's why sometimes I am happy for European women.

JovialJune:
Even the polygamous ones marrying multiple wives, didn't they woo, befriend, have sex with the women before marrying them? It is still a sin, they only made the sin legal by marrying them, in the sight of God, they sinned.

For a Christian, polygamy is a sin, fornication is a sin. If you must woo, it is to be without sin. Separation is allowed, but not divorce because when you separate, you must not meet anyone else except that person you had chosen to be your wife/husband.

Emma2Seconds:
Oke solu ngwere maa mmiri ....... Hope you know the implications nah ? If I catch you doing it because am doing I will share the house expenses in to two you take one part and I will take one or else I will send you back to your ppl. Doing Get Levels ok!!!! Don't expect who works for A to work for B the same way. If you know you know

@the bolded, now you hit the nail on the head. This is the reason women in Europe have the power they have, they work to pay their bills. But I think Naija women are coming up on this. The reason they tear eye quick when they go abroad. But because you pay the bills doesn't give you right to cheat. I feel for women who are too weak economically, they take a lot of shit.

Pierohandsome:
Nobody condones a man cheating. But sincerely,men and women aren't the same. Any man that have and adulterous wife will die quick under mysterious circumstances. I have seen many.

A man can have multiple wives, a woman cannot have even a boyfriend beside her husband not to talk of 2 husbands.

From the Bible age,it has been so. So don't say because a husband cheated the wife has equal right,no,she doesn't. Nature and the gods as local as they are frowns at an adulterous woman.

It is a man's world and there is nothing anyone can do about it

you may check some parts of Nepal, South America, Kenya, India, even Irigwe in Northern Nigeria up till around 1968, where women are allowed to have more than one partner legally.
This is not the old testament if you refer to the bible, and this is 21st century. Some people marry multiple wives because their culture or religion permits it. But what about those who are not in this category? Or whose religion permit only marriage but not cheating? A Christian man has not moral or legal right to marry multiple wives, or even cheat on his partner. Let's call it what it is.
