So I went to the hospital and tests were conducted. The doctor diagnosed urinary tract infection and placed me on two weeks of medication. I am taking nitrofurantoin 100mg, ofloxacin 400mg and Clindamycin (don’t know the mg) each of them twice daily.

But I am a bit worried if the drugs are not too much.

yomi007k:
You used "overdose".

Oh really? But the pharmacist asked me to take one in the morning and one at night. I took only one day tablet yesterday and the symptoms are going.

I have taken one again today but There is this pressure I am feeling around my ears and throat. I guess it’s the side effect of the drug. God know say after this, I will never go raw on any girl again till I marry. God Abeg have mercy!!!!

So I woke up yesterday with a watery discharge in my penis. Towards afternoon I became worried. Having had the same issue like a year ago I decided to take levofloxacin the drug the doctor prescribed that time.

I decided to do self prescription because I don’t really have money to visit the hospital. Otherwise I prefer hospitals than self med.

I took two tablets yesterday - one in the afternoon around 3pm and another one late in the night around 1 am.


Around 3:30am, I woke up feeling confused and with a lot of panic attack. I don’t know what happened to me. My heart was beating fast and my ears were heavy.

Right now the discharged has reduced a little but I am scared taking another tablet. I read online that the drug can cause hearing loss and that has really heightened my fears.

Doctors in the house, Abeg what advice do you have for me? Should I continue with the drug? The tablet is 500mg.

Are u trying to run the ads from ur phone or a desktop?

Facebook ads are better suited to run from desktop computers rather than mobile phones.

Yes

I am currently using a UBA dollar master card, but each time I try to boost my post on my business page on facebook and IG, it doesn't work. I keep getting an error message that, Meta cannot extract funds from the card.

This issue has happened before when I used an FCMB naira master card and my account has been barred from running ads. I have opened a new account but it's still the same issue.

It was even because of the issue that made me get a dollar card and yet it's the same thing I am facing now. Please if anyone has a good idea on what I should do, please let me know. Adim very tired 😫

I want to boost a post on Facebook and IG but my ATM cards (UBA and FCMB) aren't working.

I keep getting messages everytime I try. I went to the banks and I was told to get a dollar card since I have a dollar account but the amount needed to fund the account is high for me. Who knows some other means I can use to boost the post(s)?

For sometime now, I have been looking at getting into a lecturing career. I have a Bsc,Msc & PhD which i would round off next year. So far, I have 3 academic papers.

I have been looking out for academic staff recruitment in Nigerian universities but I hardly come across any. It seems like Nigerian universities hardly carry out recuriment that is made public. I tried my luck at the University where I am did my Msc last two years during their recruitment but its a state uni and their recruitment is strictly on indigene status. I am not from there.

Right now, I have a business running but I need to get into a lecturing career to as to augment my income and at least get the necessary work experience.

Please, is anyone aware of proven steps or strategies I could take to land a lecturing job? Please kindly let me know. I will be very grateful 🙏

This your budget can't get you any good and quality camera. Increase it to around 400k, so I can give you list of it

Okay. Can i get a camera that goes with binoculars for the 400k?

TheWinterBird:
NIKON D7500 DSLR Camera

i just check it. That Camera is like almost 1 million naira. Way beyond my budget.

I am planning to buy a good digital camera for a research project on birds. who can recommend a good digital camera for me? my budget is between 100k -150k.

But they have a point.

I guess he's a WordPress Developer, hence, his submission.

@Op, you will still need to learn at least one programming or another such as JavaScript, even if u decide to go for Web Development. Any kind of Digital Skill are profitable and would enable you get job on time, the reality is just that, just as u are planning to start, some others are also doing same, while most others are already in the game, u just need 2 stand out from d crowd which requires discipline and going extra miles. Beside, as far as Digital Skills are concern, it's not a must u work 4 someone or organization, u can always work 4 urself and achieve ur goal. Just do ur personal research with d help of Google on list of highly sort after skills, what is required to learn them, then go 4 the one that align with ur person. Moreso, if u can, enroll in physical class on whatever u end up chosing for a start. Self-taught could be draining and have ur goal prolong compare 2 having someone put u through offline. This is just my opinion.
Good luck.

Thanks a lot.

I will advise you to learn Web development. It's not hard compared to programming, this skill saw me through school and now I don't care about white collar job, though if it comes I'll take it. With Web development, just a day job can pay some civil servants monthly salary. If you are interested in learning Web development, I will coach you on that through real time screen sharing on WhatsApp. Step by step guide and so on, just buy domain name and hosting for the class, remember the class is not free,but I won't charge you much.

Doesn't Web development require programming skills?

Hello, Nairalanders.

I am interested in learning a digital skill to enable meet my financial goals. The challenge I have is knowing the right skill to learn that will guarantee quick employment. I have heard of software and web development, data analytics etc. but i don't know if these digital or programming skills have high employment opportunities in Nigeria or if there are foreign job opportunities available for people who have these skills. If yes, what companies in Nigeria employ people with digital skills? are these positions open for beginners? How often do people with digital skills in Nigeria get jobs from companies based abroad? Is the demand high? Also, how many years will it take me as a beginner to get to a level where I will be highly sort after? I mean real jobs with career path not Upwork or Fiverr.

Even if it takes a year to learn, I am ready. I can create the time to learn it. I have a laptop, good power supply in my location and a mifi. I am also so very smart.

Please, I really need intelligent responses from people who have tangible and reliable information not guess work or assumption. I will really welcome responses from techies or people who have good knowledge of the technology ecosystem.

Please, how do I apply?

illuminutty:

Ballzproblemm:
30 yrs old man you still never get sense ,she's clearly not interested you still dey force yourself,when she chop your money now.

you no go allow us hear word with"fear women" comment.

Me chio onu! Onye nkpu. Not all women show interest at the onset. Besides, why are you sounding so bitter as if me and you dey drag one woman? I mean, men chase women everyday. If a man of 60 years can woo a woman and still stand a chance, how much more me? And what makes you think I am broke? Because I entered tricycle? Smh

God1000:
Stop wasting your time chasing girls

I have not chased any girl for the past one year.

SHIVA001:
She no like you. Girls like wo dem Dey always see face to face. It takes 15days for a lady to start liking a guy. For guys it take just 5secs. To start liking a lady

Are you saying that I do not stand a chance??

There is this girl I met today while I was returning from somewhere. She was in the same tricycle with me. She wore her NYSC wear; obviously a corp member. I sat close to her and immediately began to fancy everything about her.

I am not in the habit of wooing or 'toasting' women because nearly all the girls I have dated in the past actually just became my girlfriends just like that. We met, developed strong feelings and voila! dating started without me uttering any statement like like 'would you be my girlfriend?" bla bla blah.

Fast forward, while we were inside the taxi, I actually winked at her and whispered to her hearing that I needed her phone number which she declined.
By the time she alighted I decided to stop as well even though I didn't get to my destination.

I approached her while she was walking down the road, spoke nicely and she gave me her number after I had followed her almost to her house. I called the number immediately and her phone rang. However, she told me she doesn't pick calls or respond to text messages which I thought was a joke. This girl should be like 23 or 24 years old.
I am actually 30. This evening, I tried to call her twice but she kept ending the calls without picking. I even sent a text and there is no response.

I actually like this girl. I mean, her appearance ticks all the boxes but my problem is how to get her attention without offending her or acting desperate. Please, can someone help me with any clues on what to do. I actually don't want to bombard her with too many calls though.

When I was 13 years old many years ago, during a school holiday, I went to visit one of my Aunts at my mum's village in Itu, Akwa Ibom state. There is a big river near where she lived. She had gone to the market leaving me and her kids at home. One of her son's asked that we go the river. I had always wanted to visit the river because I wanted to learn how to swim.

When we got to the river, I and my cousins (3 of them) jumped into the water and asked me to wait by the bank of the river since I didn't know how to swim. While I was there, I saw other kids who were younger than me swimming and enjoying themselves. I couldn't resist it and quickly took off clothes and went in with them.

They were throwing this ball and everyone tried to catch it. At first I was at the area close to the bank of the river, then later I started hearing some of the kids calling out "isong eh isong eh" I didn't really know what it meant so I just kept jumping and moving with them shouting "isong eh"

Few seconds, later I couldn't feel the sand under my feet any longer. I tried to swim, no way, I was sinking. I tried to scream but everytime I opened my mouth, I only gulped in water. I then I passed out. I woke up later at the bank of the river hearing people shouting and calling my name "Aniekan, Aniekan"!

Few days later, I was told the harrowing story of how I drowned and how one deaf and dumb guy rescued me and how I almost died if not for the intervention of the people who brought me out and pressed my stomach and put scent leaf in my nostrils. I am over 30 now and i have never gone back to that village. But my mom recently told me that the deaf and dumb guy who rescued me has passed on. I felt very sad because I would have wanted to visit him and give him a gift for saving my life.
