I’m writing to you as someone who had passed through this kind of experience before. Mine was worse than yours. I will share the experience with you
Inform your parents on what is happening, they can’t beat or rebuke you
I was admitted to study pharmacy in 2006 at the great citadel, Obafemi Awolowo University. After my first session, I had 4 carryovers. Not as if I wasn’t serious or very dull, things just went in the way I didn’t understand. I summoned courage and repeated the first year, taking only the 4 courses. I passed all and proceeded to 200level. I repeated 200level and had to take all the courses again in my fourth year at the university. After the fourth year, I passed the courses though with resit in two courses. I promoted to 300level for the fifth year. I repeated 300level and had to take all the courses in 300level in my 6th year at the university.
Finally, the worse came after my 6th year in OAU pharmacy school, it was a withdraw from the faculty of pharmacy to other faculty. I wept and felt so bad as if that was the end of my life. Every thought in me had elements of suicide in it. But my parents were so aware, I called my mum who was at work immediately my course mate notified me of my fate. Dad had known earlier that day before me through one of our lecturers.
My parents stood by me and made sure I was happy and supported me financially, physically and spiritually until I was able to change my department to Geography in the faculty of Social Sciences.
I’m a Geography department graduate now and on a verge of being a registered Surveyor and I feel more happy and fulfilled than being a pharmacist
Being withdrawn from the medical school is not the end of life. There are billions of opportunities in other fields.
Please notify your parents now. They will know later, but they will feel more disappointed then than now.
I am so sorry. But I just can't resist sounding cynical on Ur case. If u no know book, there are departments u just can't survive in. All Ur parents money can't keep u there. After passing WAEC and JAMB thru special centre and all that, u think u can still come into some departments and continue that way....... E no go work.
One advise: spare no expense to educate Ur kids properly. Don't allow them to cut corners in their early education. When they get to university level, they would have been academically toughened to take the stress
Wyloutproperty: You are sick. Didn't you hear she complained to other passengers and even an officer of the law. They all failed her. The best she could have done is what she did. Keep calm and collect evidence. She could have been the only female there, and it could have gone the Indian bus rape way if she insisted on raising dust at the moment. Don't let me curse you m
u are not smart at all. If u were, u would have realised she ONLY complained after calmly watching the man grope her while she videos and gathers evidence. That is stupid. Her way no pure and those people she complained to realised her impure intentions and ignored her.
A pure person with good intentions will be immediately too mortified at the first attempt to grope her and will quickly raise alarm or at least complain loudly to embarrass the man.
Dunno what to say sha. But what kind of drama queen will keep watching a man grope her just so she could get video evidence? Is she a LovePeddler? Why not just give him a blow to the face or ribs, he will behave. But she rather chose to capture a video of her own groping for over minute.
Final verdict......her way no pure. She is an attention seeker.
I stopped watching when I heard she was studying political science.......like WTF!!!!!! How can one travel all the way down there to study something u can easily study very well here in Naija? Total waste of money IMO
Golan007: But when they aren't attracted, its because government doesn't know what it's doing.
This is what your face is like hearing this news:
oga, what we need to actually grow our economy is FDIs and not FPIs. FDI is designed to remain, to be sustained. It will create jobs and all. FPI is so volatile and so unstable. The investors can pull out any time and cause u serious economic drain.
Am sure ur politics clogged brains won't enable u to understand the difference nor the implications. No be me go teach u. Just go to school
oshozondii: Remember Ese Oruru, the 14-year-old girl resident with her parents in Bayelsa, who was abducted, taken to Kano and impregnated by Yinusa Dahiru aka Yellow in 2015.
Oluneutral: Fine, apologize to her for raising up your hands on her explaining to her that it wasn't intentional that it was out of provocation and calmly tell her that you can't do more than you're already doing presently, so you advise her to spend her money the way she deem fit, afterall, it's her money.
I don't know why people over react to issues. Except the OP has other issues he is not telling us. If not, the solution is simple. Just apologize for hitting her. Then give her the marching orders: if u can't live within the means I have provided for u, there are 2 choices. Either u provide the rest urself or u get the f*CK outta my house- without Ur daughter ooo. If I catch u cheating just to meet up, u will still get the f*CK outta my house. Sense will just come to her Naturally. Despite all those stupid friends of hers, she can never be deceived about the need to remain married to a good man and have a stable family life. She won't be foolish enough to be a divorcee over something she can avoid. If she decides to leave and marry another man, then know she was never meant for u initially.
Vietnaminfo: I deal with fact and not hear say. The same letter was sent to us in Vietnam too and no one cares to listen to them. How can one run from frying pan to fire. Vietnam has 200+ cases of Covid 19 and no death reported and almost all are treated and discharged without paying a kobo to the vietnam hospital. They were all fed by the vietnam government and most milliary baracks were used for Qurantine. Nigeria, which way?
oga stay in Vietnam. It is not by force to return. But if u chose to return, bear your own cost
gretblue: She said could not feed her own mouth talkless of feeding the baby. But she still went ahead to make the baby where CD of N100 could have saved the day. Sister, call a spade a spade , there is no single justification for her actions. She's purely a greedy fellow influenced by making quick money from the sale of the baby. If she has not been caught, definitely she will make another baby ,so she can continue to make quick cash. Simple
at the bolded, that assumption of yours was far fetched and simply stupid.
Frankly, I think the girl did the right thing, in the circumstances. She made the mistake of getting pregnant. The deed was already done. She has 2 choices, either to abort it or to keep it. If she keeps it, she can't cater for it. So she made the only fair choice, give it out to someone to cater for it. It is illegal to collect money for doing so. But let's be pragmatic here. That is the best decision in her circumstances
Made4naijalove: A video has captured a couple from Abiriba, Abia state, fighting over $300 in the presence of their little children, including a newborn.
The woman recently had a child via ceserean section and mentioned it as she dared her husband to beat her after he threatened to.
The fight turned physical at some point and the children observed it all, with the toddler crying as her parents fought.
definitely UK, US or Canada. I notice that most migrant families in these countries have their relationships stressed a lot. The pent up frustration is just too much. I probably has to of with the economic difficulties they face in everyday life, the problem of adjusting to a new way of life and the feeling of being caged in.
Honor10: Nigerians must learn to live with this virus, lockdown is not working and it can't work.
Am sorry to say, this covid is not going anytime soon, the better we think of another way outside lockdown, the better for us.
To those of you shouting lockdown. Consider this:
1. We just finish a month lockdown, and with this, so many people have lost their job, many business has fold up etc. Those business that are struggling to come back now, what wil happen to them, if we go back to lockdown.
2. Do u really think the Lockdown can be effective with no palliatives? Thier is no way u can keep people at home without food, most people survive with daily hustle, u can't feed them, yet u tie them.
3. One million boys, awawa boys etc wil come back with full force, then everyone will start keeping vigils, no food, no sleep, when will death we are running away from,won't eventually come?
4. I am sure the number of cases won't decrease with lockdown, this I am sure of, we will lose the economy, and increase number of confirm cases, double loss.
Everybody should protect themselves, wear face mast, use sanitizer/wash your hands, avoided crowded area and take other precautionary measures. Learn to live with the virus.
jethro2: You should learn some manners of approach. It's ethical
And by the way you sound like a frustrated farmer
Aunty, I know ur antecedents on nairaland so I won't oblige u.
Please note that my statement was not meant to be an insult. If everyone decides to buy and resell agricultural produce, then who will do the farming of what they are to buy?
Do not discourage would be farmers with such comments, even though I must admit that u are partially right. sometimes (unfortunately too) it is true that middlemen make much more than the farmer.
MyMouth: Hmmmmmmmmm, they may have broken the law no doubt but to auction their trailer and cows, that one na another story, most of these cows belong to VIPs. Them go still settle themselves.
wait oooo!!! Which kind of lockdown will prohibit movement of food items? Is that not plain crazy?
Dantepet3000: First and foremost most girls don't realize that most men spend more than they earn. All in a bid to enhance affection towards them.
I dated her for two years until that faithful day she found my salary voucher on my bed. Tho I do other side hustlE that enabled me pay her bills.
I've always known that when she discovers the amount I earn in my company, she will be scared of the future between us. I remember the days in shoprite that I was only able to afford bread. Oh my God, I don suffer. Anyway I had plans for us despite my 45k salary of an MSC holder. There is no financial hole I did not help her block. Infact I did what guys who earn more than me couldn't do.
She started misbehaving towards me ever since she saw that pay cheque. What she didn't know was that I did not use my other professional qualification in the company and when she left me.
I decided to forward other qualification to our management. Like play like play my salary rose to 75k after 3months 100k after 6 months 120k, now I am a site manager and I earn 360k. I believe the whole graduates in her family don't earn what I now earn combined. I am not proud or beefing anyone. Am just reminiscing. By the special grace of God I will even go higher...
PS. Now I am spending my money on my mum and family. I thank God for another chance. Bless
congrats. Reminds me of my babe that left me the very week I lost my bank Job. Tried to make a comeback when I landed and FG job few months later. I chop am clean mouth.
She ended up marrying a guy who treats her like shit.
DeLaRue: Agree. Farmers work extremely hard, but the reward is rarely commensurate. If you do well this and next year, all those gains can be wiped out in year 3. Farmers are the least rewarded in the agricultural chain.
The market is very unfair to farmers. Middlemen & women and retailers make all the money.
problem is, without the farmer, the middle men are out of business. Don't discourage farmers.
Smart farmers will gradually learn to bypass the middle men and make more money
No,I humbly disagree. Manufacturers all around the world buy products from farmers all the time,you know what you lack? Wanna know? Ok I'll tell you. It's simply capacity. Let's say you have more money and resources,let me start pointing out where you'll get the breathing space you so desire; 1)purchasing power; Let's say you have enough money to buy 100,000tons at a go,do you think you'll still buy 1ton for 180k? Hell no,you can have the audacity to tell the farmer that it's either 90k per ton or he go bleeps his mama while you humbly go and import from outside. 2)logistics; It cost you 10-16k/ton to transport because you buy small small. If you buy good quantity like I stipulated,you'll get to need bigger vessels or truck for haulage which when you fill to the brim and press calculator,you'll find out that it will cost like 3-5k/ton to transport because you now load more product per unit area. 3)Storage; If you have money and capacity,you'll be able to build silos to store grains so that at time of scarcity,you'll have grains you had stored that will last you through the scarcity period. You'll get to make money from hiking selling price due to scarcity even though you bought raw material at normal price,thereby maximising profit. 4)output capacity; Imagine you have bigger machines that can handle more volume and push out more output per unit time,that is the same time and almost the same resources you use now to produce small small quantity will be used to bring out bigger output,that is you now get more jugs or kegs of oil on almost the same resource used to produce those small small ones you use to produce. That further drives production cost down and gives you more room for profit or for you to be more competitive. Imagine that... Packaging; Imagine you have capacity to buy 100,000 empty jugs at a go. Will you still patronise iya big nyarsh that sell close to you with the small son at her shop with catarrh on his nose all the time? Remember she always have small quantity available sef and by so her price will be very high. Nah.... You'll now buy from the company direct at a very good price and they'll handle the logistics for you sef to your doorstep. Also,imagine what will happen to your sales? It will skyrocket,because you are competitive with good product and can give you the ability to drop price more and still be profitable because your sales is very high,even if you make 200 naira per jug,you multiply by your quantity or output or selling power and you smile. Ownership of logistics; Imagine you no longer hire transport but own them? You know what that means?it now cost you less to haul product from point A to B. That is still driving production cost down and giving room for profit or competitiveness. Automation; Imagine you get enough capital to buy modern automated machines? It means you'll higher less labour,spend less per unit time or output,that is you get to save money on labour hire while machine handles all what those expendable humans use to do? You make more money and remain very competitive. In fact they are so plenty I can't list all. Note; There is no such thing as bad business,you just don't have enough money to run it optimally or enough strategy for it to be profitable. Finish!
oya now that you are done with all the big grammar, what is the solution?
Since he does not have capacity like u said, can u give him the capacity?
He is talking about how to approach his expansion plans from another perspective (vertical integration) and u are here talking big money that he does not have and which u cannot give.
This thread has outlived it's usefulness. I think it should be closed.
I just visited again after over 6 months. All recent post are full of useless adverts. Business plans, poultry training, egg purchase and all other nonsense.
DavSagacity: What about the Chinese Doctors they imported from China. where are they.?. Boss Mustapha should send them to Kano state now. Haba.!!
if u think those Chinese were imported to treat you and me, then u need to think again. The doctors are reserved to treat Buhari and his cabal in case they catch the virus
ChristineC: inhumanity. does the lock down feel like a break or imprisonment?
those asking me questions, I guess you guys spend your work breaks collapsed in your chairs all through. if this feels like a break to you, then I can only SMH at your lifestyle
some others make plans, you know, like travel. ever heard of that?
Na because u get money to travel Na. Ever heard of millions of Nigerians who work so hard but can't afford a trip to Thier village?
Kobojunkie: Does the state at least have a record of how many people have actually died within the month in that state? How many deaths are in question here? And why not exume the bodies( assuming no cremations) and autopsy them to confirm?
The year is 2020 but in Nigeria, still sounds like, it is still the mid 1900s.
I think it is against Islamic teachings. Same reason why they opted for verbal autopsy, because they can't wait for a proper autopsy before burial
Prompto: As expected of every Igbo, who told you Buhari was ever involved in any coup ? Did you not read from your history book Babagida Danjuma orchestrated the coup n only handed power to him as the most senior officer just like you described for the bastard that truncated Nigeria democracy but out of bigotry you'd rather believe that of Aguiyi Ironsi but not that of Buhari.
I hail you bigots. A shameless on at that.
Oga, even military records, prepared by the northerners, submit that JTU Aguiyi Ironsi was not part of the coup. I however admit that he survived the coup for same reason ZIK and Nwafor Orizu survived (because he was Igbo). But the actual planning and execution of the coup had nothing to do with him. I will also point out that his actions after the coup and his handling of the arrested coup plotters was what made him look complicit.
