People that actually wanted to help already did. If someone wants to help then they would state how that person can do it better instead of waohing and being sarcastic. The entire money wasn’t for pta as she would use some of it in Nig and that’s why I felt it was better that way. Ain’t above learning, I wouldn’t ask questions here in the first place if I felt that way. It just hurts how a simple question turned into sarcasms and making someone feel like a simpleton. But it’s all good. Thanks ma’am. LagosismyHome: Take it easy ... it just a question because the logic sounds a bit odd but the comment means well and you might just learn a better process of what to do. .... we all learn everyday.

This is why I dislike asking for help/opinion sometimes on this thread. I don’t think I owe anyone further explanation as per why i had to send Naira for her to get ££. I needn’t go into every detail!!!
I wonder why you’re dissecting and analysing something that has already been sorted. Plsssss let it rest, it’s becoming annoying.
At the end, it’s not your money and it’s not your headache. I asked for suggestion/opinion, I’ve separated the chaff from the wheat. Whoever likes can continue to masturbate over a done deal. Eyin lemo!!!!!!! |

Ok. RalphJean: This even makes it more bizarre. PTA in ££ ££ is not used in Nigeria.
She will now withdraw Naira. Go to Aboki and exchange it for ££ at black market prices.
Or she will go to bank, use her visa and passport and apply for PTA (at CBN rate). Then collect ££ and travel to a country where they use ££ (like UK for example).
The spend the ££
Wow... |

Yes. Hope it makes sense now or do I need to buttress ? It’s PTA for my mum... RalphJean: Am I missing something? 1. You have £ 2. You exchanged it for NGN (thanks to the ever dependable MamaTukwas). 3. The NGN is in Nigeria. 4. Now the person will find how to change it to ££ (in Nigeria)?? To use it where? In the UK? |

I ended up getting Naira from Mamatukwas. The process felt like too much hassle for me. rigvod: make sure u send only rounded up figures.. i am hearing any cents or smaller units will not be cashed. Eg 100usd is better than 102.57usd. When it works, abeg come back and tell us |

This is helpful. Thanks a lot. rigvod: I have just heard u can send through world remit pounds and the recipient will pick up USD in Nigeria. Cash pick up of dollars, few banks listed eg FCMB, First Bank, GTB Recipient must have the main photo id eg Intl passport, National id etc and the names must match and a valid phone number by which they will receive their code. U and the recipient must not have an account in the bank to be able to do pick up. Dollars in cash will be given. |

Are you usually this stupid or you’re just putting in extra efforts this morning? Where in my post did I mention “my husband” as the ‘men’ in question? If comprehension is your problem, I’ll suggest you retake your English classes. It’s never too late. Don’t bother responding as all subsequent comments from you will be ignored. samuel19222: Your husband no dey proud of posting your pic online or he is nursing some ladies online and doesn't want to cast, wetin even concern me?

Yinmu. The same set of men who claim not to like SM attention are the same set who will be all over other women’s SM liking and loving their every post. They enjoy and even entertain attention from other women on their posts yet... Let’s not delve into this further jor. At the end of the day, a woman will always know if a man truly cares about her. Good morning. weyreypey: His past and present situations. Then some people don't just like SM attention to anything that's valuable to them. Don't cast your pearls before swine... |

Wish I could like this post a million times. CalliDora1: Any man that doesn't want to be seen with you is either hiding something or has ulterior motives. He could be a chronic womanizer, that is why he doesn't want people to know about you so he can easily flirt and lie he's not married.
If a man is honest and truly loves you he'll be proud to show you to the world.
Ditch him. |

I think it’s probably due to the holidays. My last transaction/chat with her was on the 15th of this month. Have you tried sending a DM to their ig page? lastclaire4: Mimzy when last did you buy from the chinense lady. I sent her message on the 19th of Dec, but up till now she is yet to respond on WhatsApp.

You couldn’t have said it any better ma’am. Just last week, I posted a video of my LO and her classmates singing on my WhatsApp status. One of my contacts buzzed me and pointed out that the black kids were put in the second line and it was racism. I frankly told her I didn’t notice and it means nothing to me. I even went ahead to show her other classes in the same school where the dark skinned kids were in front but she still maintained her stance. I simply just left her to it. When one doesn’t pay heed to trivial things, then life gets a lot more uncomplicated. LagosismyHome: If you are looking for racism then you will see it for sure.... if you are not then yes it normalized and doesnt mean anything . My kids school in London they are only 2 other blacks in their year for me it doesn't mean anything. They go through the same issues the next child has. Work wise it's always been mainly white. Las las UK is still predominantly white
2019 we did a lot of UK holiday package touring up and down to know UK well. Majority of the holiday I never saw a black person.....It was predominantly white. If you ask me if anyone starred at me or was racist. I cant say yes because I frankly dont notice such. I do my thing you do you thing and everyone is ok. However if you are conscious and start looking for racism you will see it . Rightly or wrongly ... how can you tell that the person is looking at you as if you are not wanted without words spoken ... it what you have chosen to internalise

Here you go ma’am. Please ensure you request for video of your hair before shipping, tell the lady you want 180 density or higher and also use PayPal as mode of payment so incase you are not satisfied with the hair, you can easily request refund. https://instagram.com/virginhairvendor_lisa?igshid=126stlbun0ynpMamatukwas: Sis do you mind sharing the plug?

Oh really? Means I’ve been extremely lucky then. Been buying from there for years and never had any issue. I don’t buy human hair there sha. There’s this wholesale vendor on ig that sells good quality hair. The company is in China and PayPal is accepted. LagosismyHome: A lot of the reviews are fake as well ...one time i was looking at hair and you see the same review on completely different hair. Word for word .....
And then you continue reading and see the real review saying dont be fooled, there are a lot of fake reviews here as the hair was rubbished . |
