You are an illiterate it is very obvious.
"Beat the rod, and spoil the child" gibberish I am sure that is a reasonable excuse to abuse children.

If in 2025 you think the best way to discipline a child is physical abuse it shows how inept, and pathetic you are. I am sure no country beats their children more than us yet we turn out scammers, cultists, corrupts individuals like no other I am sure those guys were not beaten in their childhood. Otondoo.

E no go far sha.
When you born your own children beat them anyhow you like, with anything from canes, to pure wood, knife and even pressing iron sef.

Just don't even as much as slap another's person pikin else anything you use your eyes see collect am like that you hear. Filthy scum
Don't mind him, the way we were raised has affected most of them. They believed that those beatings and physical abuse made them turned out well. So, they are going to raise their own kids too using the same method. Instead of them to seek knowledge online on how to raise your kids without beatings, even without raising your voice.
I'm glad I did some researches on better ways of parenting

My parents never slapped or raised there hands on me...
Not even for once? That's a lie! I don't beat my kids too but I can't say that I have never raised my hand on them.

tribe has something to do with it because the same way people from different religions can't tolerate each other is the same way people from different tribes can't tolerate each other...

in saner countries, her slaps will be treated as a crime of hate against the Yoruba boy.

have you read anywhere that P:eter Obi condemned the woman who was slapping the boyhuh
There is no tribe in Nigeria that doesn't beat their kids, it is a cultural things found in all the tribes in Nigeria with no exception. But you can see few parents across all the tribes that don't fancy beating their kids as a form of correction or discipline

I am having no conflict of opinions. My stance is arrest and remand in prison is an overkill. She was dismissed, and this is appropriate punishment. If not that the case has already gone far, she surely would not have laid her hand on any child in the next school that employs to avoid a repetition of what led to her dismissal in her previous place of employment.

As for the mother, I still insist she failed her child. Why did she have to go to her pastor to report? Why didn't she go to the school authorities directly, or if she doesn't want issues, confront the woman herself? Which right thinking parent will see this and keep silent? It was likely the pastor that insisted on reporting to the school because she was too cowardly to face her own colleague at work.
Coward? No! She was probably concerned about the fallout and given her situation, she was doing everything to prevent what later happened: escalation which could cost her job. This woman is a widow for God's sake. You are probably an independent woman with some level of power, you might not understand the vulnerability of women in this category

Vulnerability has nothing to do with this
Going by how the school treated her after video leaked by seizing her phone (despite not being the one who leaked it) and she still refused to implicate them, it was glaring she was protecting her job. That's being vulnerable, I'm just surprised that you didn't see the connection.

Ma Oga, you need to remove emotions and research what I'm telling you here. Used cars don't have warranty, they're bought and sold "AS IS"

Sellers however, SHOULD NOT, impede any form of inspection you want to carry out, that's the koko

If you buy a used car for a low price and enjoy it for years, hence getting better good value and lots of savings as opposed to buying brand new, you wont go back to the seller to add up funds to him abi

So, when you buy and it goes sour, you chest it too

When you buy a used car, you inherit both the assets and liabilities. The onus is on you to carry out a proper research and thoroughly inspect before paying. Don't rely on things like asking the seller if the car is perfect and he says "yes", it won't hold any water
The guy who started this thread, the seller fixed his car for him. That's one. But you haven't learnt anything from it.
You have the right to ask them if there is any fault you should know about which you should ask. They would probably say no any fault. If you try to make them commit, that's when they would change their attitude towards you and that's all what you need to see, the red flag. What's so difficult for you to understand here?

She is looking for online donations.
Nothing bad or unheard of if she needs help and looks for online donations, she's a hardworking widow. She wasn't begging for alms before now, nobody knew her before now. She didn't report to the school or police, she hasn't asked you for help yet. Why hating on her?

You are confused. Only you are having conflicting opinions on a single subject.

That's a struggling powerless widow. You saw the part where it was mentioned that her phone seized by the school on Tuesday and released on Thursday and the woman still tried not to implicate the management. That's what happens when someone is in vulnerable position. You can't understand

There was no subsidy allocation in the budget Buhari signed and left behind, yeah Tinubu can send for supplementary budget but NASS equally has powers to reject..... .
Firstly, He didn't send it even if NASS was going to reject it.
Secondly, it was his policy to remove it, NASS wouldn't have problem approving subsidy on petrol for the remaining six months of 2023.
Thirdly, has NASS ever rejected things like that or anything for that matter? Even tax reform that would affect all Northern states negatively almost sailed through grin grin

Used cars are bought and sold "AS IS"

There's no warranty for used cars, the onus is on you to carry out proper inspection before purchase

There's no way one can "intentionally hide a major fault" in a vehicle like you claimed, you either got carried away by the blings and bought out of excitement without inspection OR you went along with either an unqualified technician or incompetent one or both

Your intimidation tactics will most likely backfire, don't even bother

I fixed it and the dealer paid for all the repairs. The car has sound engine nonetheless everything else is perfect.

You are making this one up on your own. You would ask them if there is any fault you should be aware of and if you notice it before so and so date, you would return it. Let it be on record. They would tell you to forget about it and move forward. But the buyers are always too eager and forget to take care of this aspect before parting with their money.

Of course, some faults wouldn't be noticed immediately most especially if it mended just for you to able to leave their premise with your scrap. Bottomline, buyers shouldn't be too eager to part with their money.
I have bought fairly use vehicles at least four times and that's has always been my method. Immediately they refused to assure me and they became angry or irritated, I knew it was a packaged gabbage and move on

Sorry, you're the ignorant one. South West is not just the ritual capital of Nigeria but also the kidnapping capital of South.

After NW and NE, the highest number of kidnappings and consequent ransom payments occur in SW. Nobody who lives in Nigeria and is fully informed will argue these facts!

95% of people selling their cars is because it's faulty. They've repaired and repaired and are tired of repairing it so they'll just put it up for sale.

That's why I tell people to avoid Nigerian used cars cos na problem you de buy. They money you'll spend in fixing it would exceed the amount you spent in buying it.

Go to apapa those cars coming in from the ship, negotiate with a dealer, pay and carry your car home. You'll use it for up to 2 years before it starts giving you any major issue .
Two years? For a car that you're using privately? I doubt it except for the lack of maintenance

What’s wrong with these dealers?

Why can’t they be upfront with the owners
and tell them that the car they’re trying to sell is scrap? Why is it so hard for them to be honest with the owners ? I don’t mind buying a car with a bad engine, but the problem arises when it’s sold at the price of one with a sound engine.

I remember when I wanted to sell my van. The first buyer who came, I told him to look for another van. The second buyer mentioned he had borrowed money and needed a van for hauling, but I still advised him to find a different one. Eventually, I sold it to someone who only needed it for body parts, and we’re still friends to this day.
They want to make maximum gain from it. So, to them, rip off is all fair game

Oh well, Nigeria or anywhere else, people rarely sell their cars because they are sick of it and want to get something new, used cars market is where you need a good and trusted mechanic, luck and prayers.
Some sellers will sincerely tell you what the problem is, many others will make God their witness stressing the car is perfect even when it is far from that.
Foreign used? A used car is a used car, cars start to wear the second they're driven off the lot, and like I said, these foreign used cars often have their own issues, we just tend to want to believe it is the jealous neighbour or wicked step mum that has looked at the car with evil eyes lol, or some unskilled mechanic did something.
Personally, I think you are trivialising this issue of sellers of Nigerian used cars by saying that foreign used cars (and their sellers) are in the same category. May be you have forgotten that many Nigerians don't even know what new cars/vehicles look like. Tokunbo is our common new motors in Nigeria because they the closest to new motors that majority of Nigerians could afford. The difference between the two is like difference between the ground and the space.
Less than 10% of tokunbos in Nigeria could have hidden issues while over 90% of Nigerian used could have hidden issues. What are you even saying? No be foreign used cars later becomes Nigerian used cars? grin grin

Also it's an accident car, has lots of sensor light on I didn't check well until I took it home.
What did you do after finding out?
You should have taken it back with the involvement of police and court threat since they intentionally hid all these major problems from you and presented the car as faultless

I step out of Lagos searching for a reliable camry 2004. I saw many dealers on Jiji and nairaland. I visited each of them with my reliable mechanic.
After checking several cars, we discovered that none of the Nigerian used cars is worth buying .
They always have one problem or the other. The most common is bad engines.

Many dealers even promised to give my mechanic 100k behind my back to convince me to buy this melon car.
That's the problem, there is no honesty in Nigerian market for fairly used Nigerian cars, they must hide the car's problem from the potential buyer like it is normal to do so.
In a decent society with correct moral compass, they would tell the potential buyers the problems such cars are having and give the prices accordingly. It will then up to the buyers to decide if they want go for it if they think they have a good bargain and can fix the problems.
But in Nigeria, a faulty car that should go for 1.5 million naira would be presented as faultless car or a car with minor faults with 3 million naira last price. Greedy bastardss and dishonest people everywhere
