Quinex2:

Who asked you if it's your natural hair or not?

Abigarnics01:

[quote author=aylagos post=97420080][/quote] Where is the fault? Next time fly Emirate.

hakeem4:
Good day guys, I am actually taking a survey and I’m using Nairaland since it represents the view of the average Nigerian.

As for me I spend 30-25% of my monthly income on feeding only; maybe because I’m a bachelor and I do not cook.


How many percent of your income do you allocate for feeding in a month

30-25 % on your feeding? Ah, well I don't know how much you earn, but from my average monthly incomes , 0.000000000000000.6, is what i spend for mouths of 5.

Nuttella:
No

Crazy.

Nuttella:
I pity this generation, having different children from different people out of wedlock is now the norm. God have mercy. The devil is perverse and he has sworn to attack marriages and make youth not to value the marriage institution.

I thought she was married already?

Adekaka12345:

You are funnier.
Good luck

Merry Xmas.

Adekaka12345:

Learn to mind your business.
Isn't it simple?

You are funny, but take care.

All this geriatric people in power need to start stepping down, they have lost it entirely.

Adekaka12345:


How quiet of you...

Someday, you will say this statement quietly

" I wish I did mind my business".

You will remember it very soon

Good luck.

Learn to talk without threats. We are using same forum does not mean you can dish out threats, Regards.

Adekaka12345:


How quiet of you...

Someday, you will say this statement quietly

" I wish I did mind my business".

You will remember it very soon

Good luck.

There is no day to remember, I stated the obvious. You are looking for money to get phone while some here looking for money to feed, who do you think should be helped first?

Adekaka12345:


Pathetic for you... This is Xmas. Should I pretend to be hungry when I'm not or lie and say some things were wrong with me when they arent?
This is a giveaway, the giver could give or ignore me. But it is not your prerogative to judge me. I didn't ask you...

Next time, bother more about your life...

Many people have lost their lives for not minding their businesses.

How lousy of you. Please If it's phone that is your problem to get, kindly make way and leave it to those that have mouths to feed as they need it the most, Regard.

Blowcode:

At least he said the truth brother, the many scammers here that would give sob stories and go and use the money for another thing nko

I can't tell who is telling the truth or not here, but his own should never count.

Adekaka12345:
I am interested. I need to add money to what I have to buy a new phone... Been using my present phone for about 4 years(it is so bad is an understatement.)

Thank you...

I can't believe you are asking for help just to change phone, pathetic!

If I'm to do give away and you just comment such you will be automatically disqualified.

You and TransAtlanticEx just made my day, I'm currently taking Hennessey XXO from frustration in France visit but I won't post, I don't have energy for debating replies.

MaziSpartan:
The purpose of this write up is to help the reader understand why price hikes about this time in Igboland is normal and in keeping with the free market enterprise business philosophy of the Igbo fore Fathers and to show how our fore fathers balanced this philosophy with a social philosophy that enables both the investor and the poor to survive price hikes. A wise reader will be inspired to develop ministry ideas that would promote the wellbeing of the people on such occasions as Christmas season and new yam festivals.



The Igbo market philosophy is "Ore ere bu Eze, Ozu azu bu Eze" meaning that "the seller is king, the buyer is King". This is called Free Market enterprise or republican capitalism. In order words, the market forces of demand and supply in which the buyer and seller are chief actors determine the prevailing prices. For example, yam is always more expensive during the planting season than during the harvest season because while the demand increases during the planting season, the supply does not. In the same manner, the supply of yams during the harvest season increases while the demand falls and this brings the prices of yam down.





The same analyses can be made of transport or any other business in which the Igbo is involved. With millions of Igbo going to Igboland to celebrate Christmas and New year, it is not unexpected that transport prices will increase significantly. There are practical reasons for this which include the unidirectional movement towards Igboland depriving the transporters the normal income from a multi-directional movement.

This has nothing to do with people loving themselves or not loving themselves; it is the way God and our forefathers had negotiated business life to be. Remember Jacob wrestling with God for blessing? When the Igbo speaks about his business philosophy, he concludes with "Chineke bu Eze" meaning God is King. In other words, he invites himself to remember that God is also watching whether the transaction is fair and will ultimately judge the greedy and extortionist.





How then does the Igbo show love on such occasions when price hikes are inevitable? The Igbo forefathers established a social philosophy known as "Onye aghala Nwanne ya" meaning "No one should leave his brother behind". I can assure you that half of those travelling to Igboland for Christmas and New year are doing so because an Igbo acted in love towards another Igbo.

The same applies to all the food that will be eaten during this occasion and all the community projects that will be initiated or executed.
Igbo love themselves. Igbo also love others! These are the commands of God to our fore fathers. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and soul. Love your neighbor as yourself.



For those who are concerned about the price hikes, rather than expend your energy lamenting every year, apply that mental energy to...

All these jargons did not explain anything.

The price of transport from Lagos to Eastern zone during Xmas period increase because after taking you from Lagos to Eastern zone, they have to blow empty back to Lagos to pick up waiting passengers period.

I'm in Netherlands but leased up to 35 Toyota Buses to transporters in Nigeria.

Abohboy:


That’s because they have more of it, the more world class hotels we have the cheaper they will become, Lagos only has about 5-9 world class hotels so they are very sparse but Dubai has 100s of them spread out in the city, once Eko Atlantic is complete world class hotels will be w lot more commonplace in Lagos, so the price would go down, and yes you can’t necessarily compare Eko Atlantic to the whole of Dubai because it is significantly smaller but you can compare it to some individual districts of Dubai like the marina of Dubai

Nothing is going down, generally in Nigeria, things are overpriced. Even normal hotels are overpriced for reasons I don't know, I have visited more than 90 countries and I can attest to this,regard.

rossniti:


What a load of rubbish.

This one thinks it is private politicians building residential houses in Eko Atlantic, and not companies, many of therm international firms.

Why does one even bother responding to this uninformed, ignorant garbage?

Bro please try to respond to people without making it look like you are attacking them, Eko Atlantic is beautiful when finished,but it can never rival Dubai.

Secondly the price will be so out of this world, use banana island as an example.

Another factor is the Nigeria factor that will make it so expensive, do you know that hotel the standard of Sheraton In Ikeja, room will be sold at $250, but in Dubai you will get it and much lower rate like $100 and much discount if you are staying for a week.

The rent of Eko Atlantic will be so overpriced, Regards.

They better not play politics with this over there, these vaccines are not for those kind of sluggish management that Nigeria Government are known for.

V7place:

Salute my Chief!!! Live your life to the fullest!!!

You too Brother.

Samsung S8+ Abeg no vex! It was Carnival Victory.

Good, I have missed cruising since the virus thing, hope to start cruising with again soonest.

Op which cruiseliner was that? Your camera did not do much justice to your beautiful photos.

emae009:


there are fire resistance coating that can be used.
This is one of the problem most construction works uses concrete and masonry blocks. The average Nigerian always imagine the worse case scenario.
How will bush burning occur in an urban environment?

Once there is bush fire, there is no amount of fire resistance coating that can stop it.

UK should not please spread this new strain of virus as her people are very stubborn when it comes to keeping the rules,thanks for Netherlands Gov. for acting so fast.
