Are you in India with them or both of you are in Nigeria? If the latter is the case, do you expect the parents to be comfortable with their daughter living permanently in Nigeria with you or both of you intend relocating to India together?

Please inform everyone if anybody in your locality has ever received these grants. All we hear about are just figures, nobody knows where the monies are going to.

He's a governor and is entitled to gifts from several folks. Anyone, other governors, senators, celebrities and others could have gifted him the watch.
Plus, he wasn't broke before becoming a governor and could have bought it himself with his money.
Nothing wrong with him wearing it.

So you must sleep with someone before you render assistance to them or even gift them something?
Is he her father? Even Santa only gives gifts once in a year - Christmas day. Suddenly she wants to keep getting over and over and over again without offering nothing back? Who is using who?
If she's a beggar, she should know where her fellow beggars hang out and do the begging business with them same way they do it, not play with his emotions cos she wants to constantly request money from him.

That minimum wage of £11.44/hour, one hour pay of work in the United Kingdom, will get you:

-1 kg of chicken drumsticks
-2 kg of rice
-1 litre of vegetable oil
-Tomatoes, pepper and onions
-1 kg of mixed veggies (carrot, green peas etc)
- Spices.
-2 fingers of ripe plantain.

£11.44/hour is ₦22,275.64 @ current rate

How many of these will ₦22,275.64 get you in Today's Nigeria?



And how much does rent and other bills consume per month from the minimum wage? Isn't some people working for the system? It's not all about food alone bro

Please, what state did you get this benadryl? I can't find it in my location

Oh, I don't live in Nigeria and it's sold in every pharmacy or gas station here in the US. However, I believe it's sold in Nigeria too as I've seen it advertised online.

I guess you can order it online and ask your pharmacy for an alternative. See some of the links I found in Nigeria below

99thEnemy:

I have suffered from allergies alot but I don’t know what causes it.

I have been documenting my daily diet for sometime now but nothing really points to what causes it when it happens.

Allergies come from various sources, not just food alone. For me, aside from being allergic to the lobsters I mentioned, I'm allergic hornet/bee stings too.

I got bit by one flying hornet once before in the leg and my entire face and lips got swollen like this lady's. I have no idea what the relationship between the leg and the face is. I think different people just react to different substances in different ways.

I got some of the major causes of allergies from ChatGPT, if a person doesn't have allergies to any of them, then the person is very healthy I guess.

See the list below

Here are 10 major causes of allergies:

1. Pollen: Pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds can trigger seasonal allergies known as hay fever or allergic rhinitis.

2. Dust mites: These microscopic organisms found in dust can trigger allergies, especially in indoor environments.

3. Pet dander: Proteins found in the skin cells, saliva, and urine of pets like cats and dogs can cause allergic reactions in some people.

4. Mold: Mold spores in the air or in damp areas of the home can trigger allergies and asthma symptoms.

5. Insect stings: Allergic reactions to insect stings from bees, wasps, hornets, and fire ants can be severe in some individuals.

6. Food: Common food allergens include peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, soy, wheat, fish, and shellfish. These can cause mild to severe allergic reactions.

7. Medications: Some people may be allergic to certain medications, such as antibiotics (e.g., penicillin), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and others.

8. Latex: Latex allergies can be triggered by exposure to latex products like gloves, balloons, and rubber bands.

9. Cockroaches: Cockroach droppings and body parts can trigger allergies and asthma symptoms in some individuals.

10. Chemicals: Allergic reactions can occur in response to exposure to certain chemicals found in products like cosmetics, cleaning agents, and pesticides.

These are just a few examples of common allergens that can trigger allergic reactions in susceptible individuals.

Konquest:

This situation is novel to me. NEVER heard of reactions like this to lobsters and other kinds of seafoods. I strongly think it's a mind-induced thing being that it was your first time of eating lobsters. You probably subconsciously thoughts of the lobsters looking creepy and then your brain triggered your body's histamine levels to kick in and triggered the swollen face.

It's good to know that your significant other was there to assist you to get relief from that body reaction within a short space of time.


Several people around the world are also allergic to lobsters and shellfish. You can just Google "lobster allergy" or "shellfish allergy".

Not everyone has it, but it's very common in the world, thats why people always keep allergy pills.

It's likely from allergies. I had a similar experience in the past from eating lobsters at a Chinese restaurant. I didn't know I was allergic to lobsters as that was my first time trying it.

My body started itching and my face and lips got swollen just like this lady in the pix.

It was me and wifey that ate the lobster meals together at the restaurant, nothing happened to her, it was me that everything happened to. I think allergies are selective - they don't affect everyone at the same time. One person's allergy is cool thing to the other person.

Wifey simply got me Benadryl and another allergy pill. It was gone overnight like nothing happened.

I've since avoided lobsters from then.

Education / Re: UK University Offers To Fund Flights Home For Nigerian Students Ordered To Leave by MemoriesAndMe: 6:24am On Jun 12
ironheart:
Come back home, we get university here.

With all the ASUU strikes? It's been like that for ages. That's why those that can afford it send their kids to school abroad so they can graduate on time.

I think some people are too blind to reality though, and that's why some of the poor sell their properties in Nigeria to go to school abroad and end up regretting.

Demarcating yours hasn't worked out?

Sorry.

I tried demarcating, but she keeps moving her clothes before and after mine in the closet. I struggle to find my clothes in the closet cos hers are too much. I took my clothes to another closet in another room, then she started bringing her clothes there too, mixed with mine.

The best bet is just for her to have her own room and leave mine for me...

Family / Re: Wife Insists On Having Separate Bedrooms After Wedding by MemoriesAndMe: 5:19pm On Jun 07
Nothing wrong with the demand at all. Ladies typically always have more clothes than men. They can spend 100% of their money on shopping while they watch the man spend 100% of his income on bills.

Why should I share my wardrobe of less than 20 shirts and 10 trousers with a woman that has probably 1000 clothes? It's best to just give her a room and her space.

I've been telling wifey to get another room in the house for herself for over a year now, but she refused. Why do I have to fight through 1000 of her clothes to find one of mine to wear?
