Nairaland General › How To Avoid Trouble In Nigeria by membranus(op): 2:48pm On Jul 18, 2020
*AVOID IT BY ALL MEANS*
======================

*One of the most prudent things you should do for yourself in Nigeria today is keeping out of trouble. One of the worst things that can happen to a person is to be sent to jail in Nigeria.*

*Jail in Nigeria is halfway house to hell. Maryam Sanda will probably never be executed, most Governor's do not sign the death warrant anymore. Orji Kalu Uzor will probably never serve full-time.*


*But still Nigerian prisons are like Nazi concentration camps. The food is calamitous, healthcare is none existent.*

*I have seen a prisoner holding his eye ball in his hand, it was still attached to his eye socket by a tendril. Someone used a spoon to scoop out his eye ball in a fight. The nurse was off duty. Nobody cared, he died.*

*I had a client once who was remanded in prison. He was HIV positive and did not tell me. Maybe that would have been further grounds for bail. He could not take his drugs and he relapsed. Before I could try to get him out it was too late, he died.*

*The food given to prisoners is not fit for human consumption, even animals should not be made to eat such rubbish. Meanwhile, huge sums of money has been budgeted for feeding prisoners.*

*Avoid trouble, infact, flee from trouble. Anything that will involve police charging you to court is trouble. If you can kill a matter in the police station, by all means do it. Stop shouting,*

*"I know my right!"*

*This is Nigeria. Your right and left can change anytime.*

*Police will definitely ask for big money, if you have it and you suspect your case is not very solid kill the matter there. Even if you think you have a good case, this is Nigeria.*

*If your lawyer is shouting,*

*"we will meet in court!" in Police station tell him to calm down.*

*It is your case, not his. The use of "we," is merely figurative. He will not stand in the accused box with you.*

*Remember, it is not what you know that matters in court, it is what you can prove. Besides, this is Nigeria. Ihedioha can testify.*

*I was attacked once by a pedestrian in Lagos. The car I was inside brushed him slightly. I was not the one driving. I just told him to be more careful.*

*That is how the guy attacked me. He threw 4 punches, I blocked two and dodged two.*

*I had the opportunity to counter punch but I did not. I am not Anthony Joshua. A police man eventually stopped him. I quickly removed myself from the scene.*

*I was happy enough I was not going home with a broken jaw, neither was I being charged for assault. Sometimes it is better to let some things go.*

*I do not mean that you should turn to everyone's foot mat, but if you are going to take up an issue, ensure you are blameless, or almost blameless.*

*Avoid wahala. If people are beating up a thief do not join, or even stand and watch, even if it is your property that was stolen.*

*If someone hits your car don't start fighting because of that.*

*Do not lend people money. It hardly ends well.*

*Do not surety people you don't absolutely trust.*

*Avoid too much night movement, and partying and clubbing.*

*Avoid people who cannot control their alcohol, they always start brawls.*

*Realize that a bad situation can always get worse, or better, depending on how you handle it.*

*Avoid people who talk too much.*

*Be wary with your speech. Do not talk about people behind their backs.*

*Always assume that someone is recording your speech and videoing your actions.*

*Even if someone comes with negative gossip about another person, do not say anything. If you talk, it is what you said that will somehow find its way to the person's ear.*

*Stop saying things like,*

*" Do you know who I am?"*

*"I no dey fear anybody!"*

*"My yes is my yes and my no is my no!"*

*Finally, remember to keep your anger and ego in check, the world does not revolve around you, it revolves around the sun.
Crime › Rampant Stealing: Cause Of Business Failure In Nigeria by membranus(op): 9:46am On Jul 18, 2020
LAMENTATION OF NIGERIA INVESTOR

I run a manufacturing business and a trading business. 
The biggest challenge in my manufacturing business is not power, or infrastructure, the biggest challenge is getting honest staff. Everyone we hire is appears to be on a mission to steal as much as possible. Inflated invoices, recording less than the actual number of units produced. The worst part of it all is that all the fraud we've uncovered is not done by a single person, it's usually many staff who collude with each other, from production, to sales, to finance, even top management. There was a year I overhauled management 3 times in a year. But I've found a solution sha, I now use Indian management. So competent, so honest and so straightforward. I thought they were expensive at first with all the visa fees, accommodation, house staff, but now that losses due to staff theft have been reduced to a minimum, and efficiency increased, the Indian management has turned out to be cheaper than the previous Nigerian management. Now, all sensitive positions involving money go to Indians. Nigerians are only allowed in non-sensitive positions. I used to criticize companies like Dangote Group that hire so many Indians when there are many unemployed Nigerians, but now, I understand their decision. 

My biggest challenge in the trading business is the same, getting honest staff. The form of trading occurs in the open market, and involves staff having access to huge sums of money running into a few millions. I know how much I pay to security companies to provide escorts for the staff, not to prevent robbery, but to ensure that the staff go straight to the bank to deposit the money after the day's sales and not disappear with my money. This money spent on security companies is even enough to be declared as profit. We have to spend on CCTV, biometric scanners and other things that wouldn't not be needed if staff weren't looking for the slightest opportunity to steal. 

It got so bad at a point that my main criteria for employing staff was no longer conpaetency but honesty. At least, competency and skills can be learnt, but once you're dishonest, you're dishonest. 

We always complain of the economy and how they are no jobs. I know people abroad who would have loved to set up job creating businesses in Nigeria but they can't because they can't get any trustworthy person to run it. 

I know people in Nigeria with so much money, they want to start factories and other job-creating businesses but they can't because they are occupied elsewhere and can't get any trustworthy person to run the business. So instead of investing in the real sector and creating jobs, they'll just buy treasury bills, while the thieves are shouting no jobs. 

Many big businesses would have been born in Nigeria if we could engage in partnerships, but we cant because you can't trust anyone. This is one advantage the Indians and Lebanese have over us in Nigeria. They can pull resources together and do mega-business, unlike Nigerians that because only one person must do everything since we can't partner, end up with small, tiny businesses. 

Start a poultry and they will be stealing your eggs. Some will even go
ahead to be killing the chickens so that they'll be allowed to take them home.

Start an entertainment/viewing/game center and they'll be pocketing
your money. On the days you're around at the business, the money
realized will be x10 of the money realized when you're not around.
Because they're eating your money.

Lease out a vehicle to a driver to use and watch as he'll finish you.

Start a restaurant, the same thing will happen. More than half of the
total food ingredients will end up in their personal kitchens.

Even ordinary provisions shop, they will find a way to steal.

You'll see them with that their evil, wicked saying "na where person dey work, na there e dey chop, na e make dem dey callam workchop/workshop"...... Just imagine, justifying theft at work. 

And you'll see these people point their crooked fingers at politicians when they're not any different. I usually say the reason most Nigerians haven't stolen billions of government money, is simply lack of opportunity.

Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria.

"Lastly ba, I get one solution wey dey work Wella, genuinely make an oath with whatever you serves, and place a DEEP curse on yourself should you returned to gambling. It will restrict you till your mind is totally free of it."

Bad advice. Do not curse yourself under any oath.

The repercussion is always too grievous when you break the oath.

CODEIN:
I want to use this space as an opportunity to blast every codeine/drunk Nigerians on the other Twitter-hack threads who said Nigerians constitute the best hacker in the world.

Using phishing to fish people who dont know any better than the aboki shoe-maker’s Facebook username and password doesn’t make you an hacker.

Defacing the front page of JAMB/WAEC/NASS websites to put pictures of Tonto Dickay blowing Suen Oswea does not make you an hacker.

Changing the password of your friend’s facebook and instagram account because they forgot to log out doesnt make you hacker

Running video recording app on your phone before handing it to that poor fellow who just wanted to check his facebook messenger or twitter and sign out, while it record their keystroke as video, doesn’t make you an hacker.

Hacking is about penetrating what is built to be impenetrable which is why it is called gaining unauthorised access to something.

For you to deem yourself an hacker in Nigeria, try

1. hacking the bank account into bank account of any of the bloated and potbelly legislooters and sinators and evil demons politicians who are damaging this country and continue to embezzle and steal away all our money since 1960.

2. Try hacking...

a. Nairaland.com

b. Lindaikeji.com

c. Websites of every money-making Church who cant help the suffering masses

d. all Nigeria jihadist related sites where potential hokoharamist love to chill out

Until Nigerian yoots can do 1. and 2. consitently, never ever call yourself, anyone or hush the puppy and invictus the obina a hacker

I am not correcting your English. The terms used in the PwDs parlance is what I pointed out.

For a better society, there is need to use these with PwDs and treat them with empathy because we are all prone to it.

You don't need to bring religion in any conversation like this. It's a free world and we shouldn't let our own religion over shadow our thoughts or dwell it on others.

To any layman, the moment you use the word affliction and sympathize, I think you know the meaning. The choice of words in any situation go along way in resolving issues and getting close to people who are facing one challenge or the order.

To your first question, yes, I am. 15yrs on wheels, married, with a kid and a Social Worker.

Hope that helps
"You don't need to bring religion in any conversation like this. It's a free world and we shouldn't let our own religion over shadow our thoughts or dwell it on others."

Like you said above it is a "free world", so I don't deny my FAITH.

And remember this is Nigeria, many are highly religious.

I am a staunch Christian, and if you are an atheist, with your condition (I empathise with you, many are with the same, may GOD help you as HE is helping me), I will advise you, change your ways and be a Christian too, it helps a lot in coping with your emotions. Also it provides additional supernatural supports, and we all need these.

As for the SCI's official parlance, I am a novice to that, and I am not ashame of this because I am an expert in other areas too.

I was just offering a layman advice based on a close experience to help the OP writer.

Hope this helps too.

It's SCI. Spinal Cord Injured

It is not an affliction (curse). It is an injury that could be sustained by anyone.

You don't sympathize with PWDs,you empathize.
Thanks for the correction, it is SCI.

Do you have it?

As a Christian if you have it, you take it as an affliction. And an affliction is not curse in Christian parlance, it is a test permitted by God on any person to test his or her faith.

So oga or aunty English corrector, I insists that I sympathise with the man because I am talking from a real experience as you ought to have realised from my post.

So take your English professorship elsewhere.

If the table were turned, would he have stayed?
Would you?
For men many stays because they have initially been the bread winner of the family and have been going out to work and bring in the bread. He only needs to employ a dedicated person to help the woman in his absence at an affordable salary until the woman recovers enough strength to be independent.

Moreso spinal cord rarely affects woman private part (unlike man) so the man can still enjoy sexual relationship with his woman. I have seen spinal cord woman getting pregnant and giving birth easily during the affliction, giving them additional joy.

It is always difficult for any man suffering from SCI, especially at the initial years if they don't have good family support and enough finances for physiotherapy and dedicated helpers. Especially in this country where there is no good medical facilities and cares to help them recover quickly.

My sympathy goes to the man under the affliction, though also to the woman because it is not easy to care alone for a quadriplegic spinal cord victim.

As for the woman I will advise her to stick with the man during this trying moment of his life, he will soon recover and will forever be grateful to her.

My prayers goes to the man, may the ALMIGHTY GOD heal him quickly.

I am talking from close experience.
