The woman is not a robot, if she does the providing, all the homefront is on her definitely one part will be lacking and its the sex part. It's that simple, she's not wired for sex after all the wahala

A man can go all out to work for money carry pounpoun when he's supposed to be tired he wants sex, that's how they are wired.

It really is that simple.

Both sexes are different and unique

Family / Re: Friends Defend Nigerian Lady Who ‘divorced’ Her Husband At Airport In London by NoToPile: 9:32pm On Nov 04, 2023
Me I have given up on lots of male posters on NL teytey. A man can never be wrong in their eyes even with glaring evidence of guilt.


Why hasn't the man or any one come out to refute the wife's response? Has anyone seen any rebuttal here or Twitter or any other place? No. Radio silence on countering the wife's response. He was the accuser now.

Abi e no get relatives using social media?

The guy brutal sha and he met a solid reaction that justifies his wickedness. Holding the kids to ransome? Thank God it's not Naija.

Besides people should read the full story joor, he didn't sell properties to sponsor her she did herself and there has not been a rebuttal about that claim.

Treat your wives well, they won't hear.

Ita a case of revenge as we have read the woman's story.

Most women don't forgive the atrocities especially domestic violence, they only bid their time most times.

It really has nothing to do with UK or not.

My question is what if she had died those times, it was too much of a risk.

Business / Re: N1m Shares My Dad Bought In 2002 Is Now Worth #11,561.46, How? - Craze Clown(vid by NoToPile: 5:08pm On Oct 29, 2023
That 2005-2008 period lots of people made money especially those working in stockbroking firms.

They made mad money, my cousins were in a stockbroking firm. I heared them discussing about japaul oil one day, they bought at maybe 3 0r 4 naira it went as high as 15 naira, they sold and they bought quite a huge amount. They were just making money.

The stockbroking guys were big boys that period. I personally think lots of them took advantage of the market, I may be wrong though. What was reigning was shares.

By 2009 everything just came down.


As at now even the fairly okay company shares we bought back then the prices have come down terribly.

Properties / Re: He Completed His House Without Uttering A Single Word To Me As A Close Friend by NoToPile: 8:20pm On Oct 28, 2023
Even some siblings don't share such building information. They will tell you when it is completed, there are some things people generally like to keep to themselves/ their nuclear family here in naija

Pregnancy
House building
Japa plans etcetc.

Except you think he ripped you off somewhere it's not an issue.

He even told you about it after building right.


Me that the lady that practically acted as my chief brides maid got married without informing me nko, she later told me not to vex that it was very private she even had a baby I didn't hear, it was on her status I saw one year abi is it 6 months birthday it was when we were talking on phone another day and her child was disturbing her that I got to know she had a 2nd baby sef. It's even on her status I saw her husband's pix sef.

I didn't even get angry, maybe she had her reason I didn't know the circumstances of her wedding, though it seemed very small and her nuclear family stuff only. I understood because I am also a private person.

This life no hard oo, people have different reasons for what they do. Every mallam with him own kettle.

Lool, it's typical in Nigerian workspace, you mind your business say good morning and hello when necessary, they say you don't relate with people and you are proud.

If you are not on my team or in my unit, I honestly don't have much to discuss with you except hello and hi EOD.

I relate better with those in my unit, every other person, good morning good morning, except an official issue comes up that affects them.



Thats how they told my collegue that I don't relate with people I just dey go my own, is that supposed to be an issue? I just see you as someone that works in the same organization and I say hi is that not enough, I should be gisting and doing Chochocho up and down?
We get issue for this country honestly.

As a rule good morning and hello it is for everyone not in my immediate team. They don't like it they should go to court.

Properties / Re: How Much Electricity Does Water Pumping Machine Use In a Month? by NoToPile: 9:02pm On Oct 24, 2023
The price is okay, you might not even use up to that.


The only problem is tori go enter the 1k contribution. Prepaid wahala is the next thing after house rent matter.


The way we do it is an electrician will run the pump to everyone's meter, like an individual socket and then you rotate the pumping. Either weekly or daily.

My self and neighbor we rotate the pumping we are just 2 an electrician did the connection we rotate weekly. Because we are two, we used a change over switch that is outside accessible to all, so even if you are not home and it's your turn your neighbor can put in the water for everybody. This method can't work if you have neighbors that are terrible. But the 2 of us are respecting ourselves.


Best you guys contribute and run it this way.

Ok my Bad, your handle did not specify Genda hence my response. back to subject, I still blame govt cos they have more to do instead of rely on individuals to do more. Just take a look at the roads leading to these places where commerce take place, its eye sore, you might puke if you do not have strong stomach. Somewhere so much money xchange hands,

I understand but the problem is these wastes are not being poured by spirits it's we Nigerians that dispose it there not the govt we have issues in this country joor.

The typical problems

There is a system in place in Lagos. You need to adhere to this system in order not to get into trouble.

There are private waste collectors that have been licensed by the State Government. You are expected to choose one of these licensed collectors (generally known as PSP) and use them. They give you a bill and you pay at the bank. The State Government takes a small percent of that money and the rest goes to the PSP.

1) You will get into trouble if you don't choose a PSP.

2) You will get into trouble if you don't pay the bill.

3) You will get into trouble if you don't use the PSP.

4) Continuing from 3 above, it is illegal to use cart pushers, burn your refuse or dispose of it in any other way. You must use the PSP.

5) You must provide a waste bin (either by yourself or you can buy one from LAWMA) and you'll get into trouble if you don't have the right size, type (in some cases the bin must have wheels) or number of bins. You must also ensure that you clean your environment and put the waste properly in the bin.

Tokunboh Wahab is the Lagos State commissioner for the environment and water resources.


These are the things that usually lead to premises being sealed.

Solid points sir. I doubt people know these things.

just one slight modification though, there are PSPs assigned to all areas in Lagos.

So you practically don't have to choose, there's one assigned to your axis and they don't trespass each other's assigned area.

Bro agrigate Pick ups wont work, some of teh wastes from those dealers down there are larger than what a single person can pick in a hand held bin.The reason why I am talking to you like this is cos Im very close to few stake holders in them places and I use to import with them early 2000s in a place called promise land in ladipo, you might k now it, most time Im in Nigeria I still go there to visit them people. Take for example, something so simple as building toilet in Ladipo the local govt can't do, is this not shameful people have to wee on the street and poo at any hidden spot or in broad day light at the canal. The surprising this is why just they build toilet enroute the canal. The whole system is wrapped around corruption that's all I can say in the part of the government not IGBO, some here already think Im Igbo with their myopic reasoning cos Im thinking outta the box

I am female oo, I am not even talking about handheld bin, the aggregation I am talking about is all the wastes a put together in a specified location agreeed and a compactor comes to pack them.


I understand your grouse with the govt but you see on this waste manage matter especially with the markets we are generally to blame.

Now you are understanding my point, Moreso the traders pay individual Taxes to both Local and state government Your local govt contracted LAWMA to clean up, however LAWMA is demanding extra money which they have no rights to do ALl the Local government needs do is provide an area in front or back of the market for traders to dump rubbish at closing time each day market will be clean. Within the market areas Im sure the traders/Associations can police that but outside it they cannot. It will also amaze you to know that all rubbish outside of the markets are not always from teh said markets.
In PHC where I have Biz at choba, WIke instruction is for all Biz to put thier rubish in the middle of the central reservation of the roads, and the River state version of lawma come to collect it at night.

The bolded is a wrong assertion, it's not the way it works at least in Lagos.

Ofcos I know about being Engage, what Im saying is this, did the government fulfill thier own part of teh Engagement? did they provide refuse collection points?The traders are paying for this service to the govt.Are they not same people who contracted Lawma,Can I also aske you beween Alaba. Computer village have you seen any Container for refuse collection stationed out there? In my town in Delta state they have an open top container outside the market, everyone goes and dump their rubbish there in the evening or on thier way home and the council clears it early in the morning. If the government provides this kind of rubish point wont this solve the problems? I have been at places like Ladipo just as early 2018, I saw 1st hand how they enforce Environmental sanitation.

I just explained the way it works to you,

For E. G. FEDAN Plaza in Alaba has its own waste point, other plazas have where they aggregate their waste for pick up by PSP.

Good you used computer village as an example, have you wondered why computer village has not had environmental infarction issues for some time and they do generate a whole lot of waste and it's been carted.

There are arrangements for aggregation and pick up of waste in all those places.

They all have their arrangements,

Some you will see big containers like Oyingbo etc some other markets too, some you might not see because there are arrangements for aggregation and pickup.

This is where the people should ask Lawma some serious question, I know a very good friend of mine that owns a shop there or rather does import Biz there [b]the get taxed monthly for environmental fees which is meant for evacuation of Rubish [/b]Now Lawma would leave the rubbish in the roads whither the traders have paid taxes its responsibility of the gvt to provide dumping site and evacuate rubbish promptly ie every nights. In the Uk we have loads of street market, once the market shuts down people clear their rubbish to the front of the market and the council comes to collect all the Rubish. Its never the responsibility of the traders to take their rubbish to rubbish tips or dumps miles away.


Understand that the agency will not deal with an individual shop in the market, it's always with the association. The association will be billed a lump sum and it pays the govt.

So your friend is paying to the association monthly.

And Yes the wastes are always being carted, the problem is always when associations don't pay or traders don't follow their agreed waste disposal means.

Hope he is prepared to shut down all other markets in Lagos too.

Also, LAWMA directors need to answer queries. What were they looking at?

If you know how many time these markets would have been engaged and dialouged with you will understand.

Its a Nigerian thing, until force is applied we won't shift, sebi Oyingbo has been reopened after they complied.

Can I ask you something, DId the state provide a central Area where waste from the market can be dumped?

Which of the markets?

All the markets are duly engaged and have their arrangements for waste pickups. Different arrangements ask you will get the info.

E. G Alaba Int has different associations different plazas and different excos for all these their associations and plazas all of them are individually engaged by the PSP operator and even the state agency involved they all have their arrangements for their waste management.

They can not say they never saw it coming non of the executives of the places sealed can't say that.

Same applies for tradefair


Some other markets like food markets especially have larger bins placed in a strategic place in their market.

The truth is if you are into waste management in this Lagos you will know all these actions are justified.

All these markets have been engaged in dialougue over time yet no change.

My own is residents not paying for their own individual flats wastes should be next. Those pouring wastes when caught should be next.


We must all have sense by fire by force.

Force does it for Nigerians.
At least we are not in election season, let the right thing be done abeg.

I just see all these shor shor as women wahala. Women don't like themselves just eye service. When there is a deep friendship love, my child is yours, yours is mine.

I have called a friend of mine before to tell him to please send his son to my office ASAP as I will be needing him to run some errands for me. Within 30mins, guy man show. My own little kids see this my friend's children as their older siblings and most times they are always together.

Reason why fake love is everywhere. We show gratitude outside but deep down, we don't even value the person we are calling friends or spouses.

If it is a random Person, op can be blamed but in this case, op claimed they are childhood friends hence the closeness shouldn't be a thing of doubt.

Women and their wahala sha.

Loool you really think women don't love themselves.

My own is I have called a senior family friend friend to take permission to send her 17 now 18year old an errand to get a cake for me. She's even a junior friend to my mum.


So this notion of its disrespectful to call the mother to send the child an errand seems very weird to me. Very very weird. I could have called that girl I mentioned directly she would still have gone to inform her mum but I told her mum first, she just called me and said mumsie said you want to send me somewhere. It's courtesy If you ask me.

I find it strange that some people are off the opinion that a so called friend cannot call to ask if their child can help run an errand though. It really is a Yes or No situation. Also the mother had told you her no without words when the girl didn't show up.



Anyway OP cut them off, helping people in Nigeria always has its own issues, make everybody dey their lane.

Pick her call but cut them off, you don't even need quarell, you are pissed obviously but this life no hard just dey your dey, you sef will have peace of mind.
