I have decided to rant out my predicaments on this forum today.
What is the way out of poverty for me?
One inlaw is even living with us, making it 8 in number, all in one room.
This thing don come big pass me.
I know most of you here would blame me for impregnating a woman to give birth to that number of children but then, life is life. It happens like that sometimes.
They say a poor man's prayer is "e go better" but instead of things to get better in Nigeria, everyday things get worse.
Truth is, except I drive myself out of this mess to a better life for me and my children, this poverty that is so stricken will likely be extended to my children, which I really don't want.
No two ways about it except ...
But like a car without tyres, can it move even if it has fuel? Definitely no.
For 4 days now, I sleep outside in an abandoned car because of financial war at home. I can't go back home and I even feel like never to go back there but should I abandon them like that and run away? To where?
When I went to the market the other day with 5k to buy food items for the house, I was crying and talking to myself on my way back because I came back with almost nothing.
Nigeria have succeed to plug life out of poor Nigerians. The poor cannot breathe again. Let's die and go.
Advice: never give birth when you are not financially strong. Unfortunately, I've learned my lesson the hard way.
Life happens.
How do I help this family better than I am trying?
Wishing you the best in all you do.
What ? I thought I am the only one who cry for market
• I paid commission to exchange my US dollars to Swedish krone! Foreign currency is actually not craved for here like we do in Africa
• Everyone is helpful, nice & kind. Can give up their food for you. Their social welfare system is the best in the world.
• It's a totally cashless economy here. Yes, you actually dont need a paper money. Everything is digitalized including buying anything!
• Everyone works. The bills are crazy so any krones is needed. The Swedes are naturally, big, brawny, smart and strong. So working hard is never a problem.
* Work resumes by 10 am here due to weather changes. I mean formal jobs, not non skilled jobs.
• During summer, the sun doesn't go down. Meaning, there's no night. You can get sick due to body adopting these time changes. My first night i Stockholm, i slept around 1am without knowing its that late.
• Its really stable here. Count your self lucky like me if you have access to Sweden, it takes a lot to get their papers! Their paper can straighten out some shits in your life. I am a testimony.
• Stockholm is an idea City to raise up a child as everything is cool, lovely and good! World class primary & secondary schooling FREE.
• Crime rate is really low. Yahoo, fraud or other social vices can not work here. You will be caught easily as there are traits to everything you do
• Swedes are normally thieves, they are the original Vikings or sea faring thieves of past, so to curb that natural trait to steal, the government has done a lot to ensure everything can be tranced, this gave rise to a cashless, contactless economy that has proved to very efficient! In order words, it has made the Swedes to be law abiding because off what use is it to steal when you know you will be caught? Well, their prison is better than most average homes in Africa!
• Transportation is relatively fixed. For 3.9$ (39SEK) you can get a ride on the bullet train to anywhere in Stockholm for 75minutes. No other fee applies.
• Beside Rent, food, anyone can survive in Stockholm without much of a deal! With a Salary of $3000 per month, you'd live like a king! Especially if you work remotely!
• You don't really need public transport/a car to move around city, except you are hopping from one island to another. A scooter or bicycle would be more helpful!
• Swedes are Innovative, they have customized bicycles to various roles in the house, or work.
• I prefer living in Stockholm than anywhere in USA or Canada.
• The gap between rich and poor is low compared to France or UK. Here the richest man might be that fellow riding an electric scooter, or drinking low beer with you in the pub.
• Most houses in Stockholm do not have physical keys... They use codes type into the door to open. So if you have no business there, you gat no reason
• Almost everyone drives a bicycle, or scooter to move from one place to another.
• Sweden is really expensive to live in, but has one of the highest quality of life you can imagine.
• Everyone drink tap water. It's squeaky clean & safe. pH value is almost 7.0 on the dot!
• I met several Nigerians, most of them left Italy to reside here. They're always preferred before other African nationalities.

Racoon: I said it yesterday here and a lots of people were criticising me. The DSS can do Godwin Emefiele nothing except they wants to implicate the former president Muhammadu Buhari that used him to do the dirty jobs of feathering his nest, that of his aides and cronies.
All the shout of Emefiele is corrupt nah wash. Even Tinubu fully knows the implications of investigating the former CBN chair. Hence he will thread carefully. Nigeria needs a Jerry Rawlings or Thomas Sankara kind of persons to sanitise this corruption ridden entity called a country.
yes but our people are gutless and liverless join together !
SultanOfPuna: Religion has turned my mother into a shadow of herself. Ever since our teenage years my mother was not the churchy type. We are raised Catholics Back then she was active and bubbling.
all of a sudden my mother left Catholic faith and started messing around with different churches. This has cause countless rift between us, my dad and elder sister have done everything possible but my mum is too brainwashed by these Pentecostal pastors.
How can someone be attending Christ embassy and winners chapel?? I Heard she wants to join mountain of fire but changed her mind. Everytime church, church, church Yet she never gain anything from it I have been sending her money for her for upkeep since November last year only to come back home February this year and discovered she donates everything to different churches
I feel she might have a mental disorder and I don't know how to save her. She literally spends all the money in church donation tithe and all those craps. And those pastors always calling her to come for one program or the other. I don't know what to do
At least na her money she is donating! She really do not own you anything .you are all grown and it is her life. Very soon she may left you and leave forever .you must continue with yours.how person send the second half of their life is up to them
BMathew: I am a Lawyer 38 years at the Bar. I know LP will lose Why? Obi is saying he won the Election by going for Tinubu initially. How? Did Obi come 2nd? Obi has to first go for Atiku who came 2nd, defeat him then begin the case with Tinubu. He didn't do that Due process skipped Obi says he won the Election Really? Did he have the Spread? Obi should have brought the results from the 36 States and the FCT in Evidence to show his scores are higher than Tinubu's scores. Then he is talking but he didn't. Ob in proving he won a 2023 Election was trying to say Tinubu did not attend University in America but forgot Tinubu worked at ExxonMobil. He attended or not doesn't even have anything to do with the matter before the Courts. How do you work at ExxonMobil without a Degree? ExxonMobil recruits directly from Colleges not only that; they recruit the best Students from the Class. Tinubu went DIRECTLY from Chicago State to ExxonMobil! The only issue with Tinubu's academic Status is confusion between University of Chicago and Chicago State University. They are 2 different Schools. The former is high class and the latter is middle class. When you use the former having attended the latter America believes you are fraudulently trying to gain advantage presenting yourself as Ivy when you are not. I use Tinubu's University issue to counsel my Friends sending kids here that University of Pennsylvania in Pennsylvania State is different from Pennsylvania State university both in Pennsylvania State. While they are both tops and expensive one is an Ivy League the other is not. ( You don't want Tinubu's Issue I always tell them ) A call to Chicago State University requesting the Books for $15 showed Tinubu graduated from there and was their best Accounting Student! Now the School laughs at People calling to inquire if he attended. They said they are grateful though because the $15 inquiry had helped raised almost a Milliion dollars for the School!
Oga Tinubu may win because the judge collect bribe . If you are following the proceedings it is night and day who won! At least go read the European report
RTID: Okay, this is crazy. I was with my friend yesterday and he told me a very shocking true life story. A particular Yahoo boy went to plus up his Yahoo. Babalawo tell am say make him sleep with 25 women for the whole thing to be successful. “I will advice you to sleep with 50 ladies at least, because many of these women have been used.”, the babalawo said.
This guy went to book a lodge & stayed there for about 2 months. All he was doing was sleeping with different women. He slept with over 120 women & went back to the baba. 120 women!!? Quite shocking right? Now, here's the most shocking part of it.
The babalawo told him that out of over 120 girls that he slept with, only 8 have not been used. The rest of them have been used by someone else. Ahhh! This is crazy. I was traumatized when I heard this story. Things are happening.
So many thoughts came through my mind. This is just one of the many reasons why we should flee from sexual immorality.
USE as USED for what ?? i mean what will happen to the husband who married them in the future
I dedicate “Ridin' Spinners” by Three 6 Mafia to Innoson Motors. I love the brand. And they should start adding stroboscopic effect to their (rims) tyres like American car specs. I love spinners... Great jam!
i have been playing all the music you are recommending here and do you want to hear what i think of your taste in music?? i think ....
