Sermwell:
Before now, I would have sent you something sharp sharp but....you guys have bastardized this country with hate and tribalism!
You-all should suffer the consequences!

You are not a giver, never have been. Do you have anything in particular against him as a person, on personal level?

FireUpNow:
APC and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is working g. They called the president a master strategist. Enjoy his master strategy. After selling your votes for a mere 10k naira now a chicken costs way more than the amount you got paid for your vote. 😀😀😀😀😀

Another gibberish. You knew anyone who was given 10k to vote?

Omobude244:
Is that what Tinubu is eating?

You want to be eating what billions of naira is providing for Tinubu? May be you should become the president first.

Jolite:
Let them enjoy what dey bargain for.

And where does that leave you?

mukthar2000:
Too expensive, I sold my own that is bigger than this 5k 5k.

I doubt it you would get your expenses back. You would even need more than 5k to feed it to that size

That would go for 12k down south here

Sirseedorf:
Stay healthy, focus on the present and avoid what might put me into trouble physically and emotionally.

Besides it's all my daily routines, I don't do New Year bullshit, tomorrow's another day, aims and objectives continue .....

But one still needs to look at the scorecard once in a while and make necessary adjustments where needed. That's the essence of "new year bullshit".

IyaTola:
Following this thread https://www.nairaland.com/7947584/whats-greatest-achievement-2023, it important we start making plans for 2024 because who fails to plan, is planning to fail.

What's your goal for 2024?
Me:
👍 I intend to save $1700 by October 2024
👍 Start a business by November 2024
👍Get married in 2024

Well, I didn't make additional investments in 2023. Rather, I spent hugely on a project. Next year, it is either I invest from the middle of the year to the end of the year or I save all my income (whatever remains of it after daily expenditures) in 2024.

Uptheante:
That's impressive bro, one thing in life is to move at your own pace & do what's best for you not minding external pressure from folks who have no idea what is best for you.
No mind that foool, he's too emotional like a woman

I don't understand why men like to put themselves under unnecessary pressure. They would rather do things based on what people would say instead of what is comfortable for them

PastorFire:
The unmistakable words of a weak man!

Weak you said? I wish you know me in real life.
Life is too short to take everything as do or die. 70, 80 years, you're either forgotten or you're history.

motymop:
Fake story.

One of the lies they always tell Nigerian men abroad is that your wife can just throw you out of the house.

Your wife can't throw you out of the house no unless she obtained an occupation order from the court

Even with established physical altercation? What about the popular ones that we have witnessed?

Another lie is that, if you are caught cheating, your wife can take half of your property.

Most of these lies is to make Nigerian men loyal abroad.

This one too is also not strange. In fact, if it is only one house you both owned, it is going to her. So, what do you think would happen in both cases?

And what did Moghalu himself just do now?

Geonigga:
The school fees is extremely high how many average Nigeria can afford it.

Many private universities in Nigeria have as much high as this as school fees, may be you just didn't know.
Osun state university is govt owned, their medical courses fees is something else

nothingspoil70:
The only thriving business in the north at the moment is kidnapping and banditry. Any other form of business activity will fail.

Really? So, all northerners are now surviving by engaging in kidnapping and banditry! That's shocking.

Lagos is the only place in Nigeria at the moment where businesses flourish

Even in your environment, if you are outside Lagos, you would see the ones that are flourishing. But may be all of us should move to Lagos

MajorOvakporaye:
Empty-Hen should also do us good by exiting Nigeria. They are now a huge load of shit.

U go to suffer no be small. Imagine all MTN subscribers moving to Glo and Airtel! Their network will eventually crash

PastorFire:
You are a disgrace to Men!

Lol. On top this life wey go come to an end? Everything has its own time

ahmedio2017:
Honestly you said it all, come and see many abandoned houses here, parents are no more children has also vanished all in the name of I don't want to stay with my parents. Eventually somebody else will inherit the properties what a rubbish the parents efforts are already in vain. Wasted efforts.

Apus:
I pity old parents who built big houses thinking their children will inherit them.
I have a landed property too and sometimes wonder if the same fate as my parent awaits me. I got the property so others won't see me as a failure. You know our mentality/culture here frowns at you raising a family in your parents house especially after reaching a certain age.

I just built one flat. That won't be too big for me and my wife to live in alone if and when the kids finally move out which will definitely happen. I don't need more than that for now. If I need a second wife, may be I will consider building a second flat

xpressnow:
Sharing good news before or after it's materialize is dangerous IF shared with the wrong people, family members inclusive. But how would you know them? They don't have marks on their foreheads, or walk around with billboards. Most times, they are your super religious people.

Yes, you're right about cutting such wicked people out of your life.

Now don't get me wrong, we still have some amazing family members - amazing moms, dads, and siblings. To anyone reading this, thank your stars if you're truly blessed with them.

However, we also have a lot of evil moms, dads, and siblings who roll with the devil. No one has the stats, so we can stick to the use of quantifiers such as some and a lot/many.

What's even crazy is that some people trust their fathers, mothers, and/or siblings so much without knowing that it's that same person/group they trusted with their life that's behind their affliction. Some will never know - they'll just blame their lot in life on the economy, the Nigerian factor, & the rest of it, and console themselves with Bible/Quran. But in actuality, na one or a coalition of member of their household who has held them down. For some, they'll realize later, later in life - it'll be too late. They would have lost their best years and days.

Did you know that opolopo lo je pe iya to bi won lo de baba won magolo ti ko fi jeeyan. Nipa bee, iya waa diran fun iya, baba, ati awon omo? oh my, oh my, oh my. Blacks why did you chose this lot?

My advice to everyone I like is for them to not lose guard IF they themselves are not part of these Oloribuu to n ja ile onile lati fi bo ti won leyin.

May be it is because I don't share this kind of sentiment/mentality that people can hurt each other spiritually. I meant if you don't trust your family or friends, don't put them in charge of your projects or finance. But telling them that you are going to start or have started your project(s) can't hurt you even if they hate it or don't like the good news, they can only "beef".
I have personal experience I can share

xpressnow:
Way to go!

Oloriibuu ni overwhelmly majority of we blacks. Trust me, she moved that way for a reason.

One of you in the family might carry a bad energy (if you know what I mean) which wouldn't allow her to start/complete the project. It might be you, your mother, or someone else in that family, or it might be for 'nother reasons.

The only thing I don't approve of is asking for money from you under false pretense. [/b] But I approve of acting broke - eni eleni ko fe kan ba toun je. [/b] Don't quote me if you don't understand how "evilicious" blacks have been since.... If you don't get it, forget about it.

Ni ile aye, ile asan kan naa yii? Hehe!!
If you are living a life that you can't even trust anyone in your family (including your mother and father), I don't think you should even be relating with them anymore.
We're not talking about putting them in charge here, but to just share the good news

Manuel91:
Abegiii!!
I don’t see anything wrong with that; people need to stop being entitled. What you’re allowed to know is what you get; be it family or friend. Respect people’s decision. The fact that your family decides to make moves without informing any of you doesn’t mean they love you less. They’re just comfortable operating that way, which shouldn’t be a reason to be upset. Being upset only shows some sought of envy towards the information… my opinion!!

Terrible opinion. Your family!

babaYIBO:
I’m not dwelling on the pain whatsoever and I’ve really moved on. Most times when I’m sharing money to my siblings in festive periods, I still include her in the sharing.

But her actions has thought me to not put her on the family level that I put others, I honestly now see her as a stranger.

I’m a family oriented person and I believe the way we treat family should be different from the way we treat strangers. Usually treating your family with regards and love will not be just for your own benefit, but also foster on your kids too.

How you treat your siblings will definitely have impact your children as well.

You don’t treat your siblings like a total stranger and expect them to treat your children like your own when you’re around or not.

She successfully alienated herself from the rest of her family

Jewessgratitud3:
Why is this a problem and why are some of you feeling so entitled and wanting to be in the know of other people's private life and plans?

The other day it was a friend complaining that his friend didn't tell him he was building a house. Abeg, Shey Dem collect money for una hand take build the house nii?

A person has the right to conceal his plans from the public until he has accomplished it and you have no right to condemn him for it. He even told you people after successfully completing his project and instead of you to be happy for him you're angry. for what? Did you have plots to t.wat his plans.

Please, never divulge your plans until it is matured and successfully accomplished because some people are dream killers and will destroy your plans even before you accomplish it..

Be happy for him. He owes non of you any explanations. When you too build your own don't tell him.

What a poor terrible mindset and mentality!

Shalommy:
She's a wise woman. Some family members are obstacles. Chaii..

That's a very bad idea and act. It is not good at all not trusting anyone in your family but still keep asking them for favours.

seunmsg:
Did I read the part in bold correctly or my eyes are paining me? As in $9 billion or N9billion?

How did she get as much as $9 billion? How did we move from this level of mind boggling corruption under Diezani to the current revelations about Emefiele? Why do we keep throwing up extremely greedy characters like these as leaders?

If she’s willing to cooperate for the recovery of the $9 billion, I think President Tinubu should allow her come back. That kind of money can help us stabilize the exchange rate immediately.

The money has been ordered to be returned to Dauda by the supreme court. End of the road

RenaissanceGuy:
Those who are even clamoring for her return don't seem to be informed. Here in Nigeria, the case will drag for endless years until everyone forgets about it. I'm sure she's currently regretting fleeing Nigeria in the first place.

The armed robbers who were in Goodluck's administration and pillaged Nigeria's commonwealth and are still in Nigeria, how many of them are currently in jail, after more than 8 years??

It's a mistake to run abroad because of the potential corruption charges against you under any new administration. Our financial criminal law is weak and most our judges are highly corrupt

CHRISTFUCKER:
I hope he died a pathetic and painful death

Why, if I may ask? He's 80 years old. And I don't even think you knew him.

DatNiggaDaz:
..is he a member of the higher muslim caliphate HMC

Your guess is a good as mine. Looted money can be returned to members of the HMC.

Kyari nko. He was re-appointed by the lower muslim after all the corruption that took place under his watch

HMC Hadi nko, the former Aviation Minister who looted billions under his watch for a fathom Air Nigeria

Where is the female higher muslim caliphate HMC of Finance who looted funds under the pretext of social interention programnes

Servitude is a cancer

MrProlific95:
North don't rate Nigeria when it doesn't serve their interest

What is all these nonsensical responses from you guys?
A southern christian woman stole our collective money and gave a northern Muslim man to hide it for her. EFCC seized the money but supreme court said the money should be returned to him. But all what you dumbos saw was north and Muslims vs south and Christians. It is a shame.

linearity:
Real plot twist….

Las las when the man settles down he will see fresher and better options in ladies abroad and go come dump her ass.

Sure sure Her breakfast is a done deal

CaptainFM1:
The house is nice. If they are aged, they would need more care beyond the house.


Food: (good and nutritious one)
Special care:....(Hirer a trustworthy and reliable caregiver if need be)
Mobility: (Get a good and trustworthy driver). If they they can no longer walk, then be thinking of wheel chair for them.
Communication: (Ensure there phones have credit to call at will)
Pocket Money: (Even if they won't spend it, just let them have the feel of what it used to be)


You've done great by building them a house, but go the extra to provide the needed for the aged, otherwise the house will mean nothing to them if the real care for the aged is not addressed. Infact puting them in a good "carehome" and be paying service charge will be better than the house you build.

Congratulations for the building.

Good thinking. Most especially if you are living together or close to them

Nice2023:
U tried man...I wish u the best in all u do.

Thanks man

nedu666:
Some of you blaming doctors for receiving salary while abroad are very dumb. Who told you the doctors are aware they are receiving salary. Those salaries are collected by top officials in the hospitals and finance ministry. This are ways ghost workers arise. They're even dead staff still collecting salaries not to talk of the living

They're aware. Stop calling people dumb. They would perfect everything with some of their colleagues before they left. Mind you, I'm talking based on the ones I'm aware of
