RomanceRe: Lady Who Took Mattress After Unpaid Hookup Gets N500K and Sewing Machine (Pics) by NLKing01: 12:32pm On Sep 27, 2024
What an awkward twist! Se what my society is rewarding.... When there are hardworking women backing their children hawking pure water in the traffic. You buy from them and still wait for your change.
Gistmedia10:
In an unusual twist, a young woman named Blessing, who went viral for seizing a man's mattress after he refused to pay for an all-night hookup, has received overwhelming support from well-meaning Nigerians.

Previous thread : https://www.nairaland.com/8222434/hookup-benue-lady-takes-mattress

Blessing, a mother of two from Benue State, captured attention when her story was shared widely on social media. The man she had spent the night with allegedly told her the next morning that he could not pay her. Instead, he offered her his home theater system or his mattress as compensation. By morning, he left with the home theater, and Blessing decided to take the mattress and sell it. This incident was captured by a neighbor, quickly spreading online and sparking mixed reactions from the public.

In an interview with humanitarian worker Ukan P Kurugh, Blessing revealed that her journey into sex work was driven by hardship. After her mother’s death and an early attempt by her father to marry her off, she ran away and eventually got married. However, her marriage did not last, and with two children to care for, she turned to the streets to make ends meet.

Blessing’s story took a positive turn when philanthropist Adoo Eugenia Ter highlighted her situation. In response, concerned Nigerians donated N500,000 and provided her with a new sewing machine to help her start a business and leave the streets behind. The donations are expected to offer her a fresh start, enabling her to support her children and regain stability.

What began as a moment of desperation has now transformed into an opportunity for Blessing to rebuild her life.

Here’s the new sewing machine she got from the 500k funds! She received.

FamilyRe: Will I Regret Not Having Children by NLKing01: 1:44pm On Mar 28, 2024
my lifestyle has always be different from public opinion... And you are asking the public for their opinion. You are not serious
Bullfallo:
Not wanting to have a child isn’t a choice per say. I hate to put myself into pressure or do things just because others are doing it, my lifestyle has always be different from public opinion. In fact opposite of the popular views or majority behavior. I don’t send or give a Bleep what anyone think about me.

Example is that people live there live on public opinion. They create a life of public presentations just to please public and get validated but i am not of public views. I do my things the way it pleases before considering public.

If I have billions of dollars like dangote the choice might have been different. I don’t live a life of faith. I must have concrate evidence of things or resources before i made any vita decisions. I hate to borrow or beg. I live a life of comfort. I am rich and comfortable but not for many mouths. Because I don’t want to adjust resources from my lifestyle

They are not used to daddy not being around ( Me and their mother are currently separated but I am hoping she would change and we would be back together ), so far the seem to be coping fine but I want to make this Christmas an awesome one for them and need gift ideas.

Please give me gift ideas.

I have a budget of 200k for each of them. This includes 100k each for their clothes and shoes for Christmas and New year.

And another 100k to buy them gifts they will like. They all have ulesson tablets so tablets are not options.
