The turning point in this story is that when he was able, he didnt pay back your money. That one was concrete enough for you to confront him because people like this tend to be very manipulative and they make you feel that you are just crying over nothing

You just have to tell him the truth, though it may be hard. And that truth is that you dont like his behaviour and he should leave you and your food alone

Sorry, i know you may not be used to confrontation but if you do this one, it will be easier for you the next time

I had this problem when someone kept visiting me to use up my make-up and hair products instead of budgeting money to buy her own. After a while I just lost my temper and she didnt try it again

If I run out of products before my next money comes and start moving about looking untidy and tattered, is it the lady or me who will collect the insult?

If you faint in your class or fail your paper now due to lack of food, whose fault is it?

Your parents didnt give birth to you, watch you grow, suffer to send you to school all so you could end up as his slave abeg

You've said it all! I think moderators of this platform need to discourage posting news like this on the forum.
No one is saying dont post a news, but please no need to include images like this.
It's just sad that people will still not change.

Yes I agree with you, hopefully they will do something about it. Although its not just on NL but on facebook and other social media.

Its more of an issue of internet culture and etiquette in Nigeria. Then more widely speaking, an issue of morality and respect for our humanity. Maybe because of the harsh environment we have found ourselves in, some people dont even realise that what theyre doing is wrong

But NL can still set an example since its a heavyweight and very influential

galadima77:
I think government should have a way of sanctioning those who reject corp members...what an insult!

wouldnt it be better if they provided incentives for those who take on corpers? so that they will see some advantage in doing it, since obviously they dont care for them right now

carrot rather than stick

if they can dismantle some of the structures that are holding people who have been in power for decades up, both old and young people of sufficient merit and character will be able to come forward

Not really an issue of age anymore but one of access (on which age has an effect). The complicated web of connections and influences that governs politics in this country needs to be broken before we will see anything meaningful

Look at imo state, Okorocha was trying to start that same rubbish there but they managed to free themselves

All those yahya bello, bla bla im sure theyre owing a lot of money to cartels that helped them to campaign, and they need to pay back. thats why theyre leeching money everywhere. maybe if they were about 20 years older, they would have been self-sufficient enough to campaign without owing their lives to anybody

It is the system that is broken, nobody cares how old somebody is as long as they do a good job

DanDeeBoss:
Yeah.. Goodmorning, Afternoon, Evening and Night.. My greetings in advance... Enjoy your day

And you too!

sirusX:
Lol...I get you

But really, the training for corpers shouldn't be too formal as they can learn on the job and assist wherever needed....after all the school system should have provided one with the basic training

Yes thats true. So is it the education system that didnt do well, then? in preparing graduates

For example someone who studied banking and finance, management, accountancy, marketing (mass comm), even just plain mathematics, what was so bad that they needed how many months of extra training?

DanDeeBoss:
It also has to do with "Capacity"

Aww Sorry

Lol thank you, good morning

armstrongkevwe:
I think u just lack the intellectual reasoning that will make u understand that the amount of engineering graduates in Nigeria is not even enough for the country to develop technologically

You cant even complete the simple task of reading, comprehending and answering the question that i posed, yet Im the one lacking intellectual reasoning

Ok o!

sirusX:
I think it's lack of available facilities in the office for that extra hand.....or training that would take months only for the service year to end a little after training without skills being utilized in their business

ok i understand.

they should have let me in, even if its just to sweep and mop the floor. what a year it was

DanDeeBoss:
Or they'll say the place Is filled up...

I haven't really thought about this "Do banks take in Corpers"??

anyway i think its a wider question about the role of corpers in this country. Somebody shows up to your establishment ready to work for free or very little and you'll be doing your face

banks used to take corpers, and if you did well they would retain you. but they stopped. i would like to know why because my suffering could have been abated

mtchew!

planetx:
This motherfvckers only care about the money not the dignity of the dead people they splattered on the front page daily.This forum should be redesingnated as a gore site where you can see pictures of little children whose skull have been split open by a herdsman matchette. In a sane country this website would have been shut down years ago

Its somehow right? Even on facebook people will still be doing it instead of taking notes from other countries. too bad

if you dont love yourself then nobody will

DanDeeBoss:
Hmmm I think so though I have two friends who read petroleum engineering from Year 1...

.Maybe you're not asking yourself why some companies keep rejecting them......

Yes and they have that school at Effurun (spelling). maybe because we produce oil. because ordinarily a chemical engineer can work with a range of industrial materials

thats another thing. they dont want to pay them? Or because they dont want outsiders looking in on their shady practices when they are signing dodgy contracts? lol

but its like asking why banks stopped taking corpers. Why if i had the chance i would i have gone to a bank. At least let me enjoy AC small

eyinjuege:
That's right
.those who trained as teachers should be posted to schools. states that dont have regilar teachers who rely on corpers should go and employ more teachers

Yes and leave the teaching to those who studied Education! i always felt it was an insult to them when they just pushed everybody to schools anyhow. so people who studied how to teach children, is their qualification a waste

DanDeeBoss:
Petroleum engineers still dey...

@bolded, government go still complain

Is a petroleum engineer not a specialised chemical engineer? is it not down to the courses you took during university and the project you defended? so how would the government complain? im getting confused lol

onmyowncj:
Universities will now politicize engineering courses,reserved for only famous pikins,this is Nigeria! Congrats to the first group of laymen to benefit

Lol. which other courses are politicised? Medicine?

.

Lol! they will be so happy. I remember how they used to complain about it. I used to think -_- the rest of us nko?

I hope their heads wont begin to swell because of this

Let them sign bills for the rest of us na

Modified: But maybe i misunderstood. There are different types of engineering, right?

People are saying that there arent enough companies but must all engineers work in a company?

Chemical engineers can be posted to nnpc, biotechnologists can go to labs, cant they Those people that design wheelchairs for people with spinal cord injuries and incubators for premature babies, dont they work in hospitals?

I thought engineering was a difficult and sought-after course that requires robust aptitude for science and mathematics. What kind of engineering are we talking about that apparently there are so many of them that they are pouring out of the cracks in the wall?

This is a genuine question and not an insult before engineers come for me

VickyRotex:
This is 2019 and I'm still amazed at how insensitive NL folks are.
Again, I'll save my long note for another day, but can we stop posting images like this?

Take a leaf from the western world, or even some African countries, do you see them post screenshots like this in their news or media platform? You would rarely see that.

Thats what im wondering because im sure posting pictures like this is illegal in some countries

And things like this are what give oyibo license to see us as sub-human. We look dispensable, because we treat ourselves cheaply and badly

Even yesterday they were showing a picture of one sickly girl who fell to the ground after River State College of health was raided. She was in a state of confusion and her laps were showing. I was wondering, have they even asked for her permission? is it not embarrassing for her?

Please you people should stop it o

This is lovely im sure there are some champions in there

They should teach me ohh...one of my teachers taught me to play in primary school but i have long since forgotten.

Nowadays when i see people playing it i feel _stupid i cant even get past the "practice" level on my phone lol

Spilled tomato sauce instead of spilled blood... #issorait

Guess the owner will be feeling bad tho..

Enyimbamercedes:
Some sophisticated lagosians will still eat some to the tomatoes that they have picked from the road

and whats wrong with that. is it not just to wash it

ThinkWISELY:
Nice one, where's Nkem Owoh?


Back in the days Nkem Owoh started as a writer,that man is extremely talented and sarcastic,by the way who remembered this movie rattle snake?

Lol behave yourself o. Nkem Owoh na heartthrob?

Even me i wanted to see Kanayo O Kanayo on the list but i think im only part of a minority that crushes on him

Lol this thread such a blast from the past. RIP Muna

I still catch some old episodes of issakaba on youtube at times

I cant stand the new generation Nollywoods, they are stilted and awkward. After some minutes I just get annoyed and turn them off.

An exception i can think of is the wedding party

adekolaelect:
you hits the nail on the head but the major problem of fighting corruption in Nigeria is the system of government and Constitution we have .bcs it gives loopholes for corruption to be perpetrated .that is why the present government resulted blackmailing corruption bcs the strength of corruption in the country is overwhelming .

I agree with you but i think i goes further than just the system and constitution.

Even developed countries have corruption scandals once in a while. The difference is that they have a well-oiled system of checks and balances, manned by (well-paid! well-fed! valued!) officials to hold people to account

I think the problem is the people (who made the system and who are in control of the system) rather than just the system itself

Something like the "Swiss cheese" model

ainas247:
thanks man

youre welcome

dipopooo:
I won't complain Ma. I like them big both front and back.... Yeeepa

Lol. you wont complain but those people will

its a sign of laziness and excess if youre too big- they have to set a good example for the people they are ruling

and its a sign of lower class if you are big there. That means you eat cheap, poor-quality food

The opposite of our rulers here!

Xander85:
It’s a beast! Beasts are built for functionality, not to look good!

Lol. i thought you were talking to that guy up there about breasts. I was about to explain that breasts have an aesthetic as well as functional value

...never mind !

dipopooo:
I wonder why people were 'moaning' underground....

In other hand, Kate Middleton has no breast and bumbum... A lady without breast and bumbum that one no be woman ooo nothing to press and squeeze

she has but she's keeping shape. when she gives it a break or when she is pregnant she looks

if she gets too big people will start complaining

.

Hoodbilonia:
Always walk against traffic
And even if u do
Nor loose guard
Still dey look back o
Just to be sure say person from other lane nor crush u
Use earpiece at low volume

its a good advice just modify that "Im sure she was on earpiece" since its insulting

Even me i have done that before and a bus conductor admonished me as i was passing so people need to know

RIP to the deceased though..sorry dear..

So we're still debating over refineries after all these years. Its a pity

Will the wike and amaechi 10-part series currently playing out even allow anybody to go there

ElsonMorali:
He is France's puppet.

I once asked a Cameroonian friend if they have only one tribe in Cameroon for only one man to be ruling since the early 80s.

I trust Nigeria. Na to kill ourselves sure pass. Cameroonians are too docile.

Exactly. It really boggles the mind. Unless they just like it like that

Well we cant really talk. Even if its not the same person, we've allowed ourselves to be oppressed by the same group of people for decades now. So we cant throw stones
