Would have used such state, but I'm in far away Lagos.
Also I think you have heavy connection, you have not mentioned that yet...

Ok.. but I don't have any connections. It has always been like that.. I stay in Abuja but for Passport, Drivers Licence and Vehicle Papers renewal, I go to Borno to do that cos it takes only a day to get all these

I can attest to the fact that Sen. Abbo (he was fondly called Cliff) was actually a very brilliant student.

I knew him way back from Mubi in Adamawa State...

From his humble days in Vimtim to when he came out as HIV positive, then during his days with several International NGOs and most memorably, when he used to fly to England to watch Man Utd matches.

But writing common entrance in primary 3... Omoh. That one weak me!

Ordinarily, way back at primary 3, you no even suppose sabi read finish.



But if I believed that a 13 year old is the youngest AWS certified developer in Africa... Then I'll humbly swallow Abbo's story too.

I could read very well when I was in Primary 1, Teachers use to come to my class to take me to Primary 4 to read book for the class because they couldn't read properly

Nigerfine3:
What do you need 5 BSc for , mind you I live in Texas, don't think I would be fooled with such.
You are smart if you have one BSc and diversify in your research

Who said 5 BSc

Rexymania:

Because he is from the north?? Or because no one could achieve these in all your generation?

I regret getting married

So many women nags alot at home. As a Man, all you are thinking of is how to live up your responsibility, but the woman is always nagging on irrelevant issues, also once a woman gives birth like twice or thrice, some become overweight, out of shape and also affects their hygiene.. So the attraction will reduce drastically. A Man is moved by what he sees

How is does that concern you
Mind your business

I really don't know anymore, i just did my budget for the month and i am scared, i have cut from everywhere possible and i fear for my self.. i dont have a GF, Wife, Children.. my salary is N400,000 and i have added side businesses and one or two's to even survive.. but with this fuel increase, what else is left... zero savings..

- Rent - N108,333/mth (1,300,000/12)
- Fuel for car - N180,000 (36k for 5-6days)
- Auto maintenance - N30,000/mth (service/repair)
- Fuel for generator - N50,000/mth (20ltr/wk)
- Feeding - N62,000 - (N2,000/day)
- Health miscellenous - N5,000/mth
- Dstv - N4,500/mth
- Data - N7,000/mth
- Recharge card - N3,000/mth
- Dry cleaner - N4,000/mth (Starch/iron)
- Hygiene maintenance - N10,000 (body spray/perfume, roll on, soap, cream) etc..

- repairs and maintenance - N12,000/mth
- Clothing, footwear etc - N10,000/mth
- Outings, restaurant, sit outs and provisions - N30,000/mth

Total = N556,500...

My rent is average rent for where i stay, its a two bed flat, i use the other room for home office..

Feeding is N2,000/day.. its not anything out of the ordinary.. tried cooking and spent more with time wasting.

Fuel for car is at the new rate of N500/ltr, my car is a 70ltr car tank..

Auto maintenance is basic brake pads, shocks, service 2mths, tire guage, police pr, tire purchase if any, minor touch ups etc... nothing major.

Fuel for generator is 20ltr/day (2hrs or less daily)

I need help.... how are you people doing it, what am i doing wrong? The rat race is killing me..

Immediately I opened your post, I sighted your major problem... My Monthly Salary is N1,087,000 but my Annual rent is N550,000

How can you be paying 1.3m rent when your salary is 400k This shows you Live a luxury lifestyle above your income because a house of that amount will require luxury maintenance as well..

Also how can you be fueling your Car with 180k and be driving alone?, Often Pick passenger on your way to work or on your way back home, you will be surprised at what you will have at the end of the month.

I feel I don't love my wife because she doesnt respect nor Honor me as a husband. I feel I mind is not in the marriage even though I provide enough for her and even for her parents and siblings but I don't think she have ever appreciated me for what I do.. currently my trust for her vanished away because recently when I was away for a 1 day short trip, I discovered she was having a video call and chats with a certain guy from 9pm till 1am. I don't know what to do and I don't feel I can stay with a woman I don't trust nor love anymore... What do I do pls.

Good afternoon nairalanders
I always felt i wasn't addicted to betting but mehn
these past few months ,I have been dealt with severely by betting companies
my entire salary for the month of April went straight into the coffers of 1xbet
my April salary came in May (2nd) AND I didnt hesitate to deposite the entire sum of (#78,000) because i was chasing my loss
I had lost #80,000 the previous month (march).

I picked about three games to win #170,000 ,Almost came through if not for man united

my fury knew no bounds ,it was just as if i woke up every day by 5am and return home 7pm just to hussle money for the bookies

I bet because i have lots of expectations to meet ,I am the first son of 5 , clocked 29 in april
my salary isnt enough and all the side hustles aint paying .(surveys and co)
upwork and fiverr arent easy for nigerians.
delving into fraud isnt part of the plan,i'd rather die poor

this afternoon ,the small 4k i was supposed to use and transport for the week ,sportybet collected it.
for a moment i had suicidal thoughts (not suicidal per say ) but i am tired of the world ...for months now ,death doesnt even scare me
i see it as an end to the suffering (we all are gonna die anyways).

if you know of any legit paying side hustles or something someone can do..
and how does one stop betting

i would like for the FG to ban betting ,it is a killer but youths wont know it
though some people are gaining from it ,but it is pffffff

The surest and fastest way to loose money is to chase your loss thinking you will recover, I lost 680k within 48 hours chasing my loss even though I won a million naira but it wasn't easy... My advice is, stop chasing any loss, betting can't be stopped suddenly but gradually, be betting less than 1k or 2k you will gradually withdraw and maybe lucky to win with those small amount..

I have been passing through a lot of frustration caused by numerous loans I took from Upto 6 Loan Apps.. I have been struggling to pay and I believe one of the best way to get the money was through bet... I tried to win but to no avail... Last Sunday I staked 1k on some midnight games and then boom I won 823k. Just like a dream I immediately settled all the 6 Loan Apps I was owing, deleted and uninstall their apps from my phone..

I am finally free from the grip of debt.

And the irony of it is that when the kids grow up, they will eventually love their mother more than you. Not minding your struggles to provide for all their needs and keep them alive when coming of age.

Exactly

JASONjnr:
Marriage is more than responsibilities...


Marriage is far from how you view and understand it.

Responsibilities is just a task. Marriage is a command from God.


I didn't understand marriage untill I planted a tomato at the backyard and I was always going every morning to observe and check for changes an watering it.

My friend thought it was all about watering it. But in real sense, it used to bring joy to me seeing that I was able to grow something and it was wonderful...

Need I say that I was stocking alot of it on the fridge and dashed some out? Later I also included pepper to the family and with eggs at home, I was always sure of a good breakfast....

The beautiful seeds the produced.

Will I die if I don't plant tomato in the first place?

The fact is apart from Bills and Responsibility, what else is in marriage?? Seeing your kids grow? Yes it brings Joy but at what cost?? Don't mistake my notion, from hospital, school, clothing, feeding bills still circle around responsibility .

Miracood2:
What exactly do people that work in NGO do? Please educate me.

NGOs Non-Governmental Organizations both Local and International do similar work but in different thematic areas.

Most NGOs are Funded by foreign Countries like USA (USAID, Global Fund, BHA, OFDA) or European Union, Canada, Germany. These funds comes in Millions and Billions of Dollars. Reason why NGO workers are well paid.. they are paid based on international standard (a Cleaner and a Driver in UN agencies can get paid Upto 400k)

Every NGO has its thematic Area such as Health. They provide support to the less privileged in rural areas, Food distribution, Portable Water, Supporting the displaced or migrants.. so there are Data analyst, Logistics and Procurement, Supply Chain, Monitoring and Evaluation, HR, Admin and so many roles that only require a degree and computer literacy and other skills.

How I Graduated With First Class Despite Sitting SSCE Twice, JAMB Thrice
Grace Yusufu Philibus had to encounter early hurdles which include attending three different primary schools, four different secondary schools, getting married as an undergraduate...


Grace Yusufu Philibus had to encounter early hurdles which include attending three different primary schools, four different secondary schools, getting married as an undergraduate and failing a course, to be among the best graduating students at the Accounting Department of the Federal University Wukari, Taraba State. The first in a family of six, she hails from Michika Local Government Area of Adamawa State and shares what others can learn from her tumultuous journey to success in this encounter with Daily Trust Saturday.
Grace revealed that she started off brightly by studying for more than five hours daily and her hard work paid off when she had a Gross Point Average (GPA) of 4.82 in her first semester and 4.6 in the second semester of her first year in school. Her performance encouraged her and fuelled her determination in leaving the university with a First Class. That resolve suffered a setback when failed one of her courses.

To build a factory is not a cake work talk more of building and commissioning.

OperationalVehi:
What's the process of getting this sort of NGO application?
Not your particular organization.. I mean similar ones. I'll be glad if you can recommend one. Thanks

It's all about presenting a captivating CV that shows you have the exact experience of the job you are applying for. It must be a reputable private company or a government body because NGO management will conduct a strict background check on you before employing you . This is after you are lucky you get shortlisted for interview and you Impress them. .. NGOs include: Engender Health, Save the Children, Malaria Consortium, FHI 360, IHV, Palladium, MSH operates in Nigeria with offices all over the country. Their minimum pay is 350k monthly

Work with an American NGO in Abuja, earn N826,400 after tax. Spend around 500 to 600k monthly mainly on tithe, feeding, fuel, outings, church donation etc. my office gives me 40g data monthly so I don't spend on data and save minimum of 100k monthly.
