With good education in Nigeria, most people can become good and useful members of the country.

He was even the VC of UNN. May Allah the Almighty forgive his shortcomings and make Jannatul Firdaus his final abode.

The Nigerian political system and identity politics have made us hate each other for no reason, killed and maim our brothers, makenour education system valueless.

I hope we see better days ahead.

3500 is factory price. When you add transportion(1100/l of diesel) plus warehousing and profit, expect around 4200 to 4500.


Someone made an in depth analysis of the whole thing

In my place here, Argungu, Kebbi State, we buy it at the rate of 4,300 to 4,400/bag. I even bought 4 and half bags yesterday. I don't know whether its because of our proximity to Sokoto state.

On seeing this announcement later in the day by BUA, I am hoping ours around here won't even reach the N3,500 price.

Be a man at all cost. Trust some people, but depend on yourself.

Be good to people as much as you can. Help will come your way on a rainy day.

I eat my normal type of food. Just that I don't drink much water during rainy season. Else everything I eat and drink, no need to pass urine or even poop.

Mine is good.

I just pray southern Nigeria gets out of this befitting burial act someday.

In the north, we don't keep corpses for more than a day in most cases. My dad's late wife passed away around 6:20pm one Friday evening, and we buried her around 9:00pm that same day. At no cost.

Such huge amount of money coild have been used for something better for the living.

Whoever is dead, is dead. And that is final for them.

She is your mom. Go easy on her. Help her when you can.

One advice I will give you, and any other person you share such problems with is:
1. They're the only family you've got. Even though they act very bad, please don't sever ties with them. However, you shouldn't be stupid either. Help them with what you can, at any time, and in a manner that doesn't make you feel bad.

2. When you have a wife and kids, please be that adult to them that you had wanted for yourself but couldn't get. Be a good man to them, let your life not be like your mom's in any way.

May God help you.

banditry and terrorism in the north is the monster their corrupt politicians created it don mature, it can never end again, unless they kill all their youths

Corruption is all over Nigeria-Every institution of the government.

If all the youths in the North die off, won't you feel lonely?

I thing we better channel our energy into decimating them. The North is just too big. Too big

Does it mean that governors cannot do anything to help themselves against these gunmen?

Will the Federal government be able to come to states aid at all times?

I fear our disorganisation in Nigeria is getting bigger by the day.

What are the functions of a governor sef?

This is one of the things that I don't know whether they have any importance.

Guys please what is the essence of this beauty pageantry?

Even here in the core North, female students face these problems.

One of my lecturers from a college of education was caught pants down by DSS officers. The married lady had played ball with him, unknowingly she had reported him to the DSS and they rigged her cloth with some mini transmission devices.

I learned the judgement he was served was to abstain from office completely. He continued with his job, but no longer has an office.

Our certificate in Nigeria doesn't give us food anymore unlike in the days, now it taught us to be Wise and think beyond our radius.

Not where I want to be but I'm happy where I'm.Thank God.

A good decision you made. We Nigerians have to think beyond our earned certificates. I believe we just don't learn enough in the university to be the people we want to be.

We should all keep pushing our boundaries.

Sometimes the trouble troubles we face in life are the catalysts that bring out the best in us.

murtaj:
Can you help with the excel, please

What kinda of help do you want?

Studied Education and Chemistry.

School teacher turned administrator.

I'm also a data analyst. Can do a whoke lot of crazy things with Microsoft Excel.

micxwell:
The information your write-up passed across especially where you mentioned your mum was that, since people had died as a result of Sickle Cell Disease in your in-laws family; their genes are responsible for your nephew/niece's predicament. It's actually not so. Whether the family has had cases of death due to Sickle Cell or not; if two couples with matching AS genotypes come together the chance remains.

The families of both my mom and dad, all of whom I know very well, never had a case of SCD, let alone die, but definitely the S trait runs in their family.

But the truth remains that both or one of my parents is/are carrier of the S trait.
My mom has little understanding of such things, hence her utterances.

micxwell:
You interpreted the family history wrongly though. Even if people had died in any of both families as a result of Sickle Cell diseases, marrying someone who is not a carrier will definitely cancel it all out. That family you mentioned up there are just plain ignorant and prolly stubborn🤷

Family history wrongly? Please elaborate

I'm a descendant of Adam nitemi, not from one ape

I'm a Muslim. I, too believe to be a descendant of Adam and Hauwa (Eve).

But why is it Baju people of the Philippines and Malaysia can hold their breath under water for over 15 minutes? And you and I can't.

Or why is that people who live in arid environments don't drink as much water as you and I do? Yet, they survive.

Many things.

maisauki:
So, there are people who still subscribe to evolution theory sham

Evolution, in my understanding is very true to a large extent. But there are certain things I totally disagree with - one of which is the various theories of creation.

maisauki:
The simplest answer is that some things are beyond what our reasoning faculties can comprehend ...you're strong, perhaps strong enough to carry five bags of cement at a time but not strong enough to carry 20, or fifty, or more. This doesn't mean you're weak or lazy, but the strength in you isn't enough to carry what's on ground at a go

Evolution has it that people develop these sickle cell disease genes as a natural way of being immune to malaria.

Mosquito bites and malaria are related are the disease.

It’s not as bad as it is?
In mathematics and statistics do you know how high 25 percent is? Even something like 13 percent is considered too high talk more of 25 fucking percent.
Family history matters in sickle cell disease??
Your English is good but you write like a dunce.

Kindly check this link https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/sickle-cell-disease#:~:text=Sickle%20cell%20is%20an%20inherited,%22carrier%22%20of%20the%20disease.

Is there anything you could help me with to undunce my writing? I'm a chemist by university degree and a self-taught data analyst.

I prefer we talk politely gentleman. Please read more on the topic. I didn't just made the things I said - I read them somewhere.

And if 25% is considered very high, 75% on the flip side is three times higher.

Serendipity2023:
The new girl I met requested to come and then leave for work from my house the next day, I obliged her.
Few moments after her arrival, she became quiet. She looked pensive and moody.

She requested for alcohol and I gave her Smirnoff. She demanded for something stronger; I now offered Origin bitters.

She recoiled into her shell, her eyes were misty if not teary.

She was lost in thoughts about the past, it was obvious.
"What could be the issue?", I muttered to myself.

She didn't want to talk and asked to be left alone.

I was worried because I had prepared my manhood for intimacy. I can't seem to get enough of that tight womanhood down there. So I didn't want any mood swings.

I prodded further and she said our discussion earlier brought back sad memories.

"Which discussion was that?"

"The genotype", she answered.

I now remembered she jolted me in the afternoon when she inquired of my Genotype.

I am AS. And I told her so.

I now remembered that I have checked this genotype at 4 different hospitals, 4 different occasions just to be sure there isn't any errors.

Because there had been cases of people thinking they were AA only to discover they were AS after giving birth to SS kids.

Some equally rejected AS spouses in the false belief that they themselves were AS.


"I have missed five men because of this",she continued.
"This is the reason why I am not yet married," she added.
It was painful to watch her in that mood.

Few ours earlier she was basking in the euphoria of having met a prince charming, a lover who would wipe away her tears and walk down the isle.

These hopes just got shattered. Not like I had promised to marry her shaa. But you know women and fantasy.

I comforted her.

Research suggests there are more AA genotype than others.
But my personal experience is different.

I have met more AA girls. But all the girls I ever liked were AS.

This is an impediment of some sorts for some of us.
But we aren't ready for this discussion yet.
➖➖➖➖➖


We still made love later because I needed to give her some natural sleeping pills.

I must add that no two women taste same.
This girl has a very tight womanhood, that contracts to grip my manhood.

Her womanhood drives me crazy.
This is how some women lose their husbands.
Just pray your husband doesn't meet her type as a side chick.

The topic of genotype is a very complicated one. Don't forget a union between two AS genotypes has only 25% chance of birthing a child with SS, 25% AA and 50% AS.

It's not as bad as many think it is. But family history is also a very important factor, I learned.
My elder sister has a child wuth SS genotype (her second kid). She now has four kids - three of which are healthy.
The issue sparked alot of trouble at our house that prompted me to do the test myself, and I turned out to be AS. With this result and my little understanding of genetics, I concluded that our parents are both AS. None of my siblings is sick and neither of our parents are sick. We're all healthy.

Upon further investigation, I found out that three of my elder sister's husband relatives died of sickle cell disease, and some are alive battling the disorder.

To sum the story, to this day my mom never believe that there are carriers in our house. She blames the other family of the disease - not understanding the biology behind it.

Family history matters ALOT.

Only time will tell what the children adopted by these people will do them when they grow up.

Watching documentaries about how animals live their lives in the jungle. We've got many similarities. I mean many. How we choose our mates, how we cater for our young, how we fight off our enemies.

Of all the things I've seen, I have not seen any animal that identifies as a member of LGBTQ+.

Human are now altering the natural order of things. Nature is not malignant. But it sure knows how to do a surgical strike to remove an infection.

I thinks its not an issue.
Depending on where you stay, if the place is a good neighborhood, you should let the child be sent on errands. This will boost his self esteem right from childhood and also make him more responsible. Otherwise, you know what to do best.

Avoid the habit of making children disobey their mothers. You and the mum should have a chat on the issue.

My taraba state I served that food cost next to noffin

Served there too. Life was relatively cheaper

YoshihideSuga:
I see you're a Northern Christian. Well, the concept of how you guys see marriage is very different from how Christians in the south see it.

I'm genuinely curious though, what is it like marrying a Christian from Northern Nigeria (Adamawa, Gombe, Plateau, Kaduna etc) as a Yoruba or Igbo man?

I'm a Muslim from the north.

I'm 29, malebof northern extraction. In a few months to come I'll clock 30. I'm working and have already started dating someone in hopes of tying the knot very soon. Marriage is my most pressing objective now. Nothing is more important.

For a lady of this age - 30, I pray you find love and settle down soonest.

Life's not only about having a career. Having a family is relatively more important.
My opinion

bobkezel:
Can payday be used on aliexpress

Yes

Nothing bad about it. The world has been much saner in the past than it is today.

As for my case, three different people recommend I a lady for me - saying she's a good person of good family, U should seek for her hand in marriage.
She's the person I'm currently dating.
