Family › Re: What Should I Do Please? Failed Marriage by NoToPile: 3:23am On Feb 19, 2023
I feel you guys were never on the same page in anything. No similar traits at all, Especially on the God part. I always advise people who take God seriously to look for people with like minds to marry or else there will be problems.

I don't see anything wrong with your expectations just that you guys were never on the same page especially on the religious part.

OlawaleBammie:
And where are the new note to replace the deposited notes??

Don't just talk because u want to talk, don't talk because u tink it's necessary, rather talk because u want to talk sense.
It's better you don't respond to some post honestly, some people are have tunnel vision, one way traffic.

Once banks close again the anarchy will begin proper.

When some of us kept saying this policy is pure nonsense, some kept supporting nonsense now it's affecting everybody. Even the damned bank transfer they kept harping on is so messed up.

Even inter bank transfer is doing kalokalo.

They should make the new notes available, if they can't more trouble is looming, it's that simple.
Business › Re: CBN Reversed Itself On Old Notes But Accused Media Of Fake News - Daily Trust by NoToPile: 10:02pm On Feb 17, 2023
somehow:
And have you cited such memo?

The banks or these unpatriotic media houses should post the memo from the CBN supporting their claim.
Banks that have stopped and vehemently refused collecting old notes from the deadline wont suddenly announce this without a directive from Cbn.

They should just let the new notes be available joor. Mtchew.
Business › Re: CBN Reversed Itself On Old Notes But Accused Media Of Fake News - Daily Trust by NoToPile: 9:46pm On Feb 17, 2023
This is terrible, these people are just taking us for a ride.

Are you saying the banks just came out of the thin air sending mails and tweeting about collecting old 500 naira and 1,000 naira notes to the tune of 500k max without an official memo from Cbn? Impossible.

Banks would never state this if there was no clear cut directive from Cbn.

What in the world is wrong with these people sef. Ahan.

Lool but bankers already had this info about the 200 old notes being recirculatedsince last weekend. Why are they making it sound like it was a very recent decision. One guy even opened a thread on the issue.

The real wahala just started, the previous weeks will be like child's play to the disaster looming.

No new notes, no acceptance of old notes, smaller currency of the new notes sef is scarce, those of us who have small pieces new notes it's 1,000 naira.

Family › Re: As A Married Man, Do You Sometimes Dream Of Leaving Your Family & Disappearing? by NoToPile: 8:58pm On Feb 14, 2023
What's the nonsense gan. If everybody disappears because of marriage responsibilities what happens.

So it's only men that face pressures from marital responsibilities. Women too don't feel like running away from responsibilities abi yet they stay.

Bash women as usual if you want to but you guys should stop talking nonsense.

I just wonder what kind of boys are being raised nowadays on Nairaland always whining and wailing about everything.

Properties › Re: Prepaid Meter: How Do I Handle This With My Landlord? by NoToPile:
ChybuzzDD:
Your explanations are not correct.
The PHCN or whatever simply transferred the old, outstanding debts from the estimated bills into the new meter.

This 53,000 is the outstanding debt for the entire occupants, including the landlord, of that building starting from when ?PHCN started bringing bills to that house.
The landlord knows this and simply wants only this guy and his colleague to inherit it.
The man might not even be adding his own part of the bill after collecting those 5,000 from the guy, which made it possible for the bill to accumulate to this extent.
What he was doing was like this: if they brought an estimated bill of like 10,000 for the entire house per month, he would collect 5000 from this guy to pay in for the month to avoid disconnection, and the arrears kept accumulating.

The guy should reject it or simply pack out, if the landlord refuses to contribute towards settling this outstanding 53,000.
The bolded is not entirely correct in this case (OP never said anyhing about bills they share one meter already) especially with Ikeja electric, those ones once you apply, if you are not aware that you need to tell them to make the account inactive, they start billing the house on estimated before the meter comes irrespective of whether it he flat is connected to power or not. Once the meter comes you they will transfer the bill to the meter.
I am 50percent sure it's ikeja electric they get brain touch like that, ekedc is still better in this aspect.


Also your 2nd paragraph might not be entirely correct, he never mentioned there was any form of estimated billing before in the compound, if there was, that outstanding would be part of the meter they both shared, it's most likely separation they applied for not a migration of postpaid to prepaid since the OP didn't mention there was another bill coming to the other flat in the compound.

Nwodosis:
When one applies for a prepaid meter, PHCN will start charging you estimated billing every month until the meter comes. It is not the fault of your landlord that the meter came with unpaid bills.
Your landlord ought to have informed you that he's getting you a new meter and have you disconnected from the general meter so that you won't be paying bills to him again since you are already on the estimated billing in the incoming meter. It may not be his fault because he may not know how PHCN operate.
You are right and your landlord is also right based on his ignorance of how PHCN operates.
Taking up the matter legally, if you win, you will park out and if you lose, you will still park out. You can't take your landlord to court and still remain in his house.
I advise you clear the bill that came with the prepaid meter.
Yeah he should have but the problem is the OP would be in darkness for the weeks /months the meter will take to arrive and I am certain he won't want that, the landlord would also be tagged wicked if he did that.


If he wants to take it legally he should take it up the the Distribution company not the landlord., they are the ones at fault, the landlord did no harm by getting the prepaid for his tenants.

One guy got the same type of billing on this NL, before prepaid, took it up with them and won.


It's not the OP's or his landlords fault, it's the system. I would also advise the OP and neighbor to pay it up, it will be fragmented I think.
Or better still take it up with the Nepa people, prove you guys were on the single prepaid that period you were waiting for the new meter, if you have the zeal and zest to drag it with them, Report to the appropriate forum for your disco it will be resolved, it will take time though, your landlord has done his part you too do your part Freethought.

Autopsy report would have helped to clear the air ... It's always cheaper in Nigeria to accuse another of the cause of death...

Even the educated ones are not exonerated in this common behaviour... neonatal death is really not unheard of..It happens even in advanced countries.... maybe u should research or visit a doctor and ask why such happen...

You might just be accusing an innocent man that understands the hardship some people were going through in the country... Sorry for your loss buddy..
Well in this case there is a pattern, it's just that we humans can be very careless and not observant enough.
You don't even need to be that spiritual/religious to observe all going on around you.

He needs to move out first

Until one lives in such a house one might not understand.

One can't invest that kind of emotions on someone that aren't his or her better half...

HardMirror:
yes. Banks are not supposed to hoard money. Their job is to hold the money for you and when you want to withdraw, they make it available. But in this case they have custommers that want to withdraw and they are refusing to give the money. By the way 250million is too small for sterling bank head office. Cbn should do better.
Well I thought there's a minimum amount that should be in the vault , even in these times there should be a minimum amount of notes at any time T . Just my thought though.

I also agree 250 million in the vault of a HQ sounds small.

My own question is are banks not supposed to have cash in their vaults anymore? I am talking about new notes, are they supposed to give all their currency to customers?

Truth be told, I am the only son of my Mother and the last born at that. Before I got married my Mom is my best best friend and I share every idea and secrets with her. But I think she is trying to bring that dominance as a Mother into my home, I am not against it, but they should be boundaries that's all. Thanks for ur advice. We all will make amends.
Mummys boy.

Your wife knows well and is doing everything Mummy says before they say she destroyed the bond between mother and son. Before your mum says her own too.

She kuku remove her head you two should be sorting your matter out.

If you think she's happy receiving instructions from your mother and not you then you are joking.

Wifey knows the hold your mum has over you and she has decided not to fight it but would rather go with the flow, she knows if she does try to resist that hold you and your mum will see her as the bad person.

You are seeing it small small, you don't need to complain o , just enjoy your mum leading your home. You are not even against her dominating your home @ bolded, you now want your wife to disobey her lailai.



When we keep on saying 3rd party interference in marriage is not good some just can't understand.
