Fellow nairalanders i feel i should screem out this time around.
Nigeria banks are dealing with the masses not to talk of the uneducated traders.
I run a small bussiness recently i noticed that when i pay money into my account
Even In MY BRANCH where i opened the account they send me wrong balance.
1st it was Zenith bank, in the past 2wks they have illegally deducted over 4,000naira
that i have noticed.
I used my Skybank ATM at sky bank Marina,the same thing happened,they sent me a wrong
balance deducting close to 1,000naira immediately.
They will pay me every kobo,i'm getting an accountant to check out all the excess charges.


This is true and it is not funny at all! I checked the balance in my UBA account at a Zenith bank ATM before withdrawing money, but alas! the alert I received showed that extra N1000.00 was taken. Please who has explanation to all these madness should let us know, abeg. The worst of it all is that the top management of our organization forced all staff to open account with this UBA and it is a salary account. It isn't fair at all.

Mercy’s groom-to-be Odi is still legally married to another woman, Lovely; making whatever documents he signs with Mercy Johnson null and void. Under the Nigerian Criminal Code, the act, called bigamy, is considered an offence and is punishable by law (usually a jail term of up to seven years or fine).

According to the Nigerian Criminal Code (part V, Section 370) ‘Any person who, having a husband or wife living, marries in any case in which such marriage is void by reason of its taking place during the life of such. husband or wife, is guilty of a felony, and is liable to imprisonment for seven years‘.

It states further that ‘this section does not extend to any person whose marriage with such husband or wife has been dissolved or declared void by a court of competent jurisdiction, nor to any person who contracts a marriage during the life of a former husband or wife, if such husband or wife, at the time of the subsequent marriage, shall have been absent from such person for the space of seven years, and shall not have been heard of by such person as being alive within that time.’

@poster good write up,

@all, a bit of federal character is needed in nigeria, if not the northerners /hausa's wudnt smell any good job/position in the country, and we all know how people react if they feel marginalized?

the best shot africa had at producing a super power, or a country advanced enough to challange southa frica was lost during the civil war, biafra wud hv been a beacon of hope to the whole of west africa and even africa as a whole, too bad the dream didnt work, , n its still not gonna work in the future,

nigeria just has to forge ahead, accept our fate that nigeria will always be a mediocre nation, never realizing its full potential, n utilizing its God's given resources

@ MBG4REal
Ok Truce though I am more confused at whom you were directing your wrath too. But lets nt go there
I also misread that Drop for[b] sell [/b] but u know either way its putting it away just to attract men. Not very logical.
Imagine its you that just met her.of course with no car.
The moment she puts you 'in the box' then Voila! car emerges.Then you hear it was a gift from boss!! I would like to know hw u would take it.

@MBG4Real

Are you for real?? First did you say am 18 and a baby?? oh pliz ok I wont comment on that.Always read btw the LINES before u pass judgement
By me saying am 81 let alone 18 as u hurriedly claimed.,Am trying to make her see that 28 is not very old since some women older are still on the field
Now you dont even know my age at all. sorry.
Another thing, are you saying the best advise is for her to SELL HER CAR  so that she can get a man ?? Get real.
Cant you even see what some REAL men are talking about here?
Seriously evrybody here makes sense except .
Finally oops soryy I dont stoop low to the point of insult.I am way too mature for that.
Just asking are you like the NL chief whip or something?? I dnt know for real. clarify.I would appreciate.
I read the moderators names up there daily.

upendo 98:
Oooooh.Okay thank you for that dear

Shes kind of past the 'age'but come on,28 is still young as there's women at 35 still searching. Am 81 and searching anyway.
Well if shes comfortable then she should live her life.
[b]PLEASE DO NOT ADVISE HER TO SELL HER CAR IN ORDER TO GET A MAN!! [/b]jeeeez! thats soo remote and cruel.Wrong foundation to a happy future.
What has a car got to do with marriage anyway unless you want to worship it more than your spouse.A man worth her standard will come along one day and will embrace her together with all she got.
Hes only coming to add value to her life not take it away and viceversa!!
Now are u telling me that its only market traders that live where she is the bank?? I mean tell her to get out there.
Ask her to place herself in strategic places and she will get her kind.
She spends all her hours in the market, then she will get market people cz they are the only ones noticing her.Dont blame them.
Do you have great hang out places there? I blve yes.Go with her every weeknd

If the world is ending, all the more reason to enjoy romance.

pc guru:
One way or another the world will end anyway.besides i don't buy it one it one bit another massive hysteria to drive sales but on the other hand better be prepared than to be sorry.as for me not sure not your typical religious fellow.

oritameta:
The end of the entire world, don't think so. End for someone, definitely. When the WORD himself had declared that only the Father knows, its not too surprising that these folks keep coming out with dates of the world allegedly coming to an end. Christ foretold all these. I look forward to May 21st 2011 and what this people will have to say on May 22nd 2011. Shikena!

Which is it? 2011 or 2012?



Gosh, someone bookmark this thread quick!

The simple things you need to know to deepen your partnership and make your relationship work, especially when things seem to going sour is:

1. Learn that punishing your partner won't work. It may make you feel better to give them a hard time, but it will actually make them dig their heels in more. A better tactic is to reward the things you like and ignore what you don't like.

2. Money is the number one cause of couple conflict. For a relationship to work, you need to address your finances and work out a budget.

3. If the domestic work is not divided fairly between you, it will cause friction in your relationship. Make a list of the domestic tasks, talk it through with your partner and mobilise the whole family, your partner included, to share the work.

4. If you have children, involve your partner as much as possible with the childcare - even if you feel they are not as good at it as you are. It's important to present a united front to your children.

5. Sort out your sex life. The sex may ebb and flow over the years, but if sex starts going downhill, don't just accept it. As soon as you notice a slide, question why and then work at bringing the passion back.

6. Don't assume you won't be tempted to have an affair as almost everyone is. You need to learn to resist. If you do stray, don't feel it spells the end of your relationship. Most couples recover, particularly from a one-night-stand, and often find that unrooting the cause of the affair helps them to get even closer. So, you need to learn to resist. But don't think that an affair is the end of everything.

7. Remember that boredom typically covers up anger. If you feel bored with him, ask yourself what you're angry about.

8. Be aware that men generally feel overwhelmed by emotion more than women do. If he's angry or tearful, half an hour's 'unflooding' time to himself will help get his balance back and make him more able to interact positively with you.

Good luck to all that want a successful relationship

Feel free to add your own

Well I see it that their faith and true love they profess to each other is on test at this point. the man has faith that things will be better and that is why he proposed, but the lady is in doubt considering the hardship in Nigeria today and that's why she didn't accept the proposal outright. I faced such a situation and I thank God that I 'm having no regrets at all at all. My husband had nothing and I too had nothing but we are both graduates, today we are gainfully employed with our two luvly kids and we are very comfortable. It gives joy knowing that both of you built your family from the scratch rather than jumping into already made homes.
It is with FAITH that Abraham became the father of all nations, so if two of them will have faith that they will make it come what may and pray over it with all sincerity, you will be amazed at the favours and open doors of abundant blessings they will get!
Some people had good jobs and comfortable lives before marriage but later they became paupers while some were paupers but later became rich after marriage. Aku enwero ebe (meaning that wealth has no permanent residence)

@ poster
Yes I would marry him even without a good job- because having a good job is not a guarantee of having a happy home, it is when you marry the person you truly love, trust and respect that you can feel happy and contented. so the lady should try and get her priorities right to avoid having regrets later.
