Lagos.

The truth is no one cares about the vehicle you drive. Just focus on functionality. I used to stay in a place where from Ikeja to my house is all tarred and good. Then, I drove a very low level Hyundai Accent 2014 model. I never felt it. Then a friend invited me to a wedding around Ipaja Ayobo one day. After brushing the hell out of the car against the ground, I felt so terrible and had to park the car somewhere safe and then I got a bike to the venue of the wedding. Since most areas in Lagos can be like that(Even on the island where I stay) ,your best bet is to get something that has a good ground clearance first of all(Like 8 inches above the ground ). Being your first vehicle, I suggest you go for the RAV 4.

Praise.. not flatter!

Did you not see that the intention does not matter ?

spiritedtete:
Spot the most troublesome of the kids and praise him or her... how beautiful she is and you know he will be very brave... use that logic to extend to the trouble makers of the class. There are others ways.

Like the monkey thing written on the board the first thing to Do is to be silent.. mean eyes.. walk to the board and take snap shot.. and tell them how you will tell the whole world about There behaviour it will be in the news and the culprit will be disgraced... this is for kids in like grade 4 or 5. There are many ways to shut them up. Just build up a certain mechanism.

My kids are the only black in their school... sometimes I get lots of complaints from them. And I told them what to do everytime and it worked. They even started doing too much I had to caution them.

How beautiful she is? So that you can be in trouble again for harassment. Why are you all trying to form experts

£28,000 per year means a 'life of slavery' or 'lifetime rat race' What can £2,300 per month in UK do for you? The suffer no be small.

However, if you are a private school teacher in Naija, you can give it a consideration. For government teachers, you are much better off here.

What makes you think government school teachers are better off?

uchman:
We move still my brother because £2300 pounds a month is running into #1.5M if not more...
Whatever they want, they should write on the board, it's not my concern.
My concern will only be the £££ which I have already calculated in my mind.

This post have been long why plenty people come dey comment today abi is it now on front page?

That is before tax. After tax , what would you be left with? After paying for your accomodation, what would you be left with and then bills too. A shared apartment can even cost as much as 700k a month . Something like a self con can cost as high as 1M to 1.2M a month. Teachers are generally poorly remunerated worldwide. In my opinion, the offer is trash.

patwilly:
Thank you for your comment. But if you were me and considering the budget which car would you go for?

Where do you stay?

patwilly:
I enjoin all forum members to actively contribute
my budget is 4.5M
the choices I am looking at are these :
1. Toyota Rav 4, (2011) Nigerian used. A friend is actually convinced this is the car I should buy as it fits nicely in terms of prestige and functionality. However, I'm not fully convinced as per buying a Nigerian used car and also because I'm not really taken to the RAV4 as I see it as not a masculine car.
2. Toyota Camry 2011 or 2012 (muscle) : I like this car and if it falls within my budget I'd happily buy it. The only negative here is I've been wanting an SUV to be my first car considering Lagos roads etc so I'm not totally sold on the idea of getting this car.
3. Toyota Highlander full option (2007) Direct Belgium or Nigerian used: Now this is the car I I'm most taken to. However, Friends are of the opinion that it is an old car (being 2007) and is gradually being phased out. Also the fact the car does not exactly convey much in terms of prestige etc.
So that's it. I'd appreciate if forum members advice correctly on any of these three car models or recommend something else. Kindly highlight the merits/demerits of buying the foreign used or Nigerian used version of any car you'd recommend.
The attributes I'm looking out for are Functionality, ease of Maintenance, prestige/aesthetics of the car. I appreciate you all.

First and foremost, you need to erase the notion that a certain kind of car is meant for a woman and another kind is meant for a man. The vehicle you drive is none of anyone's business. What you should be concerned about is functionality.

For me, I do not like SUV and I like the ES350 Lexus sedan cos of the centre of gravity things but if you drive in Lagos, your best bet is an SUV. It is more sensible to get something that's around 8 inches off the ground because of clearance advantage and to save yourself all the mechanic visits and all.

For me also, any vehicle below 2010 manufacture year is a NO No No. This is 2022/2023. Imagine buying a vehicle that was manufactured 15 years plus ago. If you like highlander , why not get one that is a bit more recent.

I do not think the RAV 4 is a bad buy. You can customize it to look aggressive. I have a colleague that drives one. Easy to maintain but everything is plastic . If you're not too concerned about aesthetics, you may get it.


Also, being your first car, I think your focus should be functionality for now then when you want to buy another vehicle , you may consider aesthetics and all.

I pray God touches someone's heart to assist you dear

You're the beggar and the respondent as well and you're not even smart enough. Stop spamming every thread with your begging and response posts.

I saw these guys cycling on Saturday morning .....They were in different groups and I remember raising some safety concerns to the driver that was driving me.

Number 1: Most of them were on the left hand side of the road instead of the right hand side.

Number 2: The units were disjointed. Some were in groups, some stopped by to pee and they didn't wait for those ones. So, you could have 4 riders riding alone away from the group.

Number 3: Only one group had a yellow car following behind. Others were just on their own.

It is important to take precautions when riding on the expressways.

May his soul rest in peace.

It's the song for me. I love the song so I go searching for all precious challenge videos.

Please what is it about?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8i8ziEEbrM

There is a lady that remixes songs in local accent. So, she remixed one of Chris Brown's songs in the same manner. Now, there is a young producer called Precious. The producer,just like DJ YK and co usually does, remixed her version , added a beat and called his own name in the beat i.e Precious....Same way producers always call their names.


Now, people started making creative videos that will show a funny action once the Precious name is mentioned. They then tagged the Precious to being a sort of a mischievous/ untrustworthy lady. This is why Precious is trending.

Horrendous pay for all the listed expectations and then, the location. Such a shame.

Jakumo:
The trainee pilot pulled back too violently on the yoke causing the plane to pitch upwards, depart from control and thus drop like a rock in an aerodynamic stall. That sequence of events was described in the original news story. Sorry if you are upset at yourself for missing that statement.

I didn't miss the statement . The questions is : Who gave the account ?

Stanleyq:
And since u were born, u never heard about black box

Black box recordings do not come out in preliminary investigations. Okay? The report was not from what was gotten from the recordings .

JOemmy:
So u don't even know that there's something called a flight recorder attached to all planes?

Aircraft recordings are never released at the preliminary stages of reports . They usually come out after two to three months of investigations . If the assertions contained herein was based on the report from it, the transcript would have been provided as well. So, the report isn't based on whatever the recording showed.

Useless report. Who gave the account of the person that raised the nose too high? The unconscious people in the hospital or the dead pilot ? What a very biased story . OP was even so daft to put the name of the Nigerian in bold .

Lies.

Good evening.

fujirice:
I totally agree with you

Thanks man.

JohnPortar:
It's wonderful that you've helped the entire Nairaland before Mr. Teacher.

However, this dude here asked for help and to him, you were as useless as the "ueue" in Queue.

I get am before no be property.

Lastly, refrain from insulting strangers on the internet, is this what you teach your students/pupils? No wonder Nigeria is failing.

He was not insulted. You can see the feedback he gave about his further research and being able to solve the rest after the videos. So, he took the counsel with an open mind.

Assignments / schoolwork does not have to be perfect. The most important thing is the learning process. I asked him to find out how to solve it because he uploaded 3 questions on same topic. He has done that and he is able to work independently now.

adebayo18015:
I have done others using YouTube and some materials. Thanks so much everyone

Kudos.

JohnPortar:
He did not ask for advice, he asked for help.

You can either assist him or move on with your life. Learn how to not judge other people's actions.

Didinrin. I am a teacher. That is how we mould people.
If you check my past posts, you will see how I usually solve for people herein.
Refer to any post where you have ever helped anyone solve anything here.

JohnPortar:
Just talk say you no know am. All these grammer no be here.

It is very important to try and understand the concepts beyond just getting things solved. Unlike you, I want him to be better.

I think you should take your time to first read those concepts or watch videos and then try to solve. You can even upload what you jave done for a cross check. It isn't a good idea to just upload assignments or schoolwork. You won't learn that way.

Okoye and iwobi spoilt our day.

How about Aina that made the blunder?

Players cannot even hit target with shots. What a shame!

Coach should remove Chiqueze and switch formation.
