CrimeRe: Border Closure: Customs Seizes 1,072 Vehicles, 19,000 Bags Of Foreign Rice by okewumi: 7:05am On Oct 05, 2019
Pistotita:
What is the price of rice sir? Come put and analyse it and stop talking in unknown language. Stop spreading useless lies. I am not a fan of Buhari, but this is the best policy so far.

So he should allow smuggling to continue because you want to eat rice. Right? You better take your time. Soon, kidnappers will visit your house if you dont take your time. Na that rice you want to eat will kill you. Do you hear me. Its only food you know. Go sit down. We appreciate what Buhari is doing here. If you like,cry...baba will not open it. Ungrateful people.

You must be an agent of rice or car smugglers. You think he is weak like Jonathan. No way. Jonathan that spoilt the ban on importing 10 years used vehicles. Very weak Jonathan.
Thank God you have sense. Dangote once said that you can not have porous border like we have and expect improvement in any sector.

I watch a security program on AIT when one of the robber said he had been importing ammunition from Burkina Faso to Nigeria for the past 15years. Just imagine. huh Do you know how many fake drugs from China to a neighboring country then smuggled in to Nigeria? I criticized Buhari a lot, but this one is a goal. Who rice help?

If the government can continue with the closure, employ more custom personnel and deploy technology in strategic areas, that would be the best for future of this country

We are also feeling the pinch here ... Turkey now N1,700.

The trials and tribulations we have to go through as a country in order to become great is unbelievable and overwhelming.

I keep telling people not to blame only buhari but to blame themselves(the citiZen) and past leaders.

As a nation we’ve really been unwise these past 59 years...

Wait till they squarely face power
To buttress your point
I went to Onitsha market and they said #1700 for a kilo of Turkey. I went to life chicken stand and l bought one #1,700. In fact, the second time l went there, l bought two layers for #3000.

Anybody that patronise Onitsha market can testify. The rate at which people are buying life chicken is booming and by so doing, our agricultural sector (poultry) is growing. More will get jobs in that sector and revenue to government.


There are villages in Anambra state (Anaku, Omoh, ifite Oguari, Omasi, Adani). These communities grow local rice and the COST of a bag is #6,000. In fact coscharis motor just installed rice factory at Anaku and l saw the news on nairaland some days back.

Just imagine if we have more investors in rice sector, and good railway system, many people will be employed (mechanised) and their won't be need to stay in city. With good rail, they can transport at low cost yo any part of Nigeria

Dangote said sometimes that you can never havea porous border like we have in Nigeria and you expect our economy to survive. He knows what he is saying.

Benin republic is number 6 on the chart or countries that import rice in the world. A population of 11.6million

omoleyeib:
brother just try to take life easy. Am a graduate like you. I did my youth service 2009 up till now no job. But God is too faithful to me, after my youth service, I gather my saving to bought okada then 105k Ride it in Lagos .i stay with a friend at agbado ijaye then for two years I saved money with one cooperative when my money reached 250k I apply for loan 550k I bought one Mazda 323f motor then relocate to portharcourt where I did my youth service then started transportation business. Till now that is what am doing to survive. In addition true out my stay in Lagos I mean for two years I and my fiance didn't see each other till when am back to portharcout and glory be to God we married 2014 with two kid now. My advice is to focus to be a man now ,if that girl will be yours she will understand the situation at hand now.All is well my Brother.
God will bless your hustling my brother. This is kind of people l love to associate with.

Number 1, you dad is just a channel for you to come to the is world. It is not an excuse.

Number 2. those that are feeding you has not show you anything (they have seen that you can not think outside your box)

Number 3, you girlfriend needs to run away from you. You have ego and most likely you will waste her time.

Number 4. You need to be slapped by a military man, why? You still have prick to fu.k a girlfriend when you couldn't focus on your life but girlfriend. Who girl friend help?

Number 5. Tell your neighbor to buy bucket for you, you need to cry from bucket to a drum

Sorry l am hard on you.

You Bleep up big time bro.
I love guys from south-south. You will see them hustling. They can sell puff-puff, okirika etc and within some years, you will see them porting from one business to another. My former MD from south sells Spare part at ladipo and today, he is one of the richest in Nigeria.

My South west people will send children to best private primary, secondary and tertiary without imbibing entrepreneur skill to the life of children or create their business. When the child finish from private university, they will be looking for work for the child. By then, they have retired. Continue (Patience Jonathan tone). Another story for another day.

Solution.
You said you an Extrovert. See potential. What stop you to learn a skill. That is what you need. shocked
You can see that you need a slap grin

You wasted a whole 9months. Looking for good job, you need a slap. You can not learn simple skill like barbing. From there, you can start house agent since you are an extrovert.

Take the teaching job for 6months and after you quit. See list of hustling job you can do, but the spirit of ego is pinging you.

1. Learn how to repair car Gear. You will chop. Nigerians will keep having gear problem because of bad road.

2. Repair of Generator
3. Repair of tricycles.
4. Installation of Tiles
5. Installation of Dstv
6. Installation of sliding window
7. Online businesses.
And many more

In Olamide voice, money is on the street. It is better you leave packaging and laminate that your certificate. Keep it somewhere.

If you are looking for packaging job, dey there and be crying. Buhari is looking for people that will create something. Pls don't be offended and don't quote me.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: How To Get A Good Job In Nigeria – Key Factors To Consider by okewumi: 7:37am On Sep 11, 2019
God will deliver masses in the hand of this country. The story is totally different now.

If you are a fresh graduate cool, no working experience, just your Bsc/HND. You need either of the two

(a) Connections
I add "s" to it. Not just connection but connections grin. I worked for a good company for 9years and l did not see their advert. When you resume for work, you see a new staff. 99.9% of employee were brought in through MD or Directors and share holders. You are not connected, you can not come-in.

(b). Small scale experience/Hustling/Referral
You can get job when you are hustling on your own and from there you turn to expert and you are outstretched.
. Let me give an example. You lean how to drive Craine or industrial Generator from Baba Jamiu Nigeria limited. Baba Jamiu got contract from Forte oil and while executing the project, the site supervisor develops interest in you and they decide to bring you in as a graduate to be part of maintenance department. That is where referral set-in. They refer you because you are competent.

If you are not connected, you have to start small. Our government have failed from beginning and the population is not encouraging (200 million). If you dad is not Otedola, look for somewhere to hookup (yes the salary may be small) from there you can plan your life and add value to yourself (not jumping into marriage grin)


Case 2.

You are working with Chukundi Nigeria limited and you are unable to change your job.

If connection fails,

what can help you out is additional and professional skills. Example. You are an engineer by mouth, no professional certification like NSE, COREN. They call you accountant in church, no ICAN, or as an IT guru, no CCNA or CNPP etc in your field ( I think you understand what l am saying).

Some company employs more staff when they need professional certification to get a project. Federal government or Multinational Coy can insist they want 70COREN or 70ICAN or 50CNPP employee when a private company is submitting proposal for a contract.. I got a job through professional certification because they need it for a project

Most importantly, let be closer to God. He is alive and answers prayer. Don't mind my typo error pls.

engrchykae:
mine was devastating.
some women are devil personified.
three months to our traditional wedding,I saw a contact on her phone with the name " my love"
I thought am the one na as husband to be very soon.
I looked closely and saw that its not my number so I confronted her and she told me its her mopol friend.
she started explaining how the guy loves her so much.
I got angry and told her " then why are you not with him,why didn't he come to collect the list "
I called her father and lodged my complaints,the father later called back telling me how she has changed.
I called her and warned that if such happens again I will reconsider my position in marrying her.
do you know that this statement was registered in her heart for revenge.
I married her and after seven months she left me to get revenge and make me lose of all I spent in footing the bills of the traditional wedding.
I have learnt to be mean in handling relationship with women.
before I pity them and wrong myself to please them.
but not anymore.
what pains me most is that my siblings whom I first got married are now with kids each while this devil was deceiving that she is pregnant and I registered her ante natal.
when she attended for six months,I wasn't seeing any sign of pregnancy and she would tell me how she had flat tummy,how the doctor is surprised at her flat tummy.
I will be like,flat tummy in six months ?
I told her to go for scan which she did reluctantly.
results came out no pregnancy .
she started telling me how a prophet told her that time would come when her pregnancy would be appearing and disappearing.
how somebody is manipulating her pregnancy.
I told my mum to help her meet those women in the village who help in such matters.
that was when they told her that she should tell her husband the truth.
she came back packed her things in our house in the village and travelled to her parents.
later came town took her things and left.
if I assist my mum financially,there will be trouble in the house.
if she add her own money in preparing food,I must refund her.
she knows my pay but I don't know her financial status.
she hides her financial status from me.
I thank God she left as I feel liberated
grin
Nawa. Ooo
Sometimes when you watch deliverance program and you see women and ladies display under the anointing, you will pity men. They can make you and reck you grin.

Sometimes the demon inside them will make sure they destroy the part of their husband and amount him to nothing. I am just watching Emmanuel TV deliverance program in Israel.

If God open your eyes sometimes, you will know that some ladies are great grandma in spirit rem.

Watch and pray. If you have carry over in school, you can correct and pass within a year but carryover in marriage can be everlasting regret.

80-90% of what you do say happened in my relationship.
I am the good/nice guy type but tbh, it really hurts.
How i wish i loved with my head and not my heart and also knowing that the reason why our wives married us is because of what we can provide or finance is really a bitter pill to swallow.
I have never seen a relationship or marriage were a man leaves a woman because she lost her job but have heard hundreds of where females leave, insults, disrespects a man because he lost his job.
It is a harsh world out there and really saddening.
Hmmmm.
I decided not to make comment but you unlock me at last shocked

YOUNG MEN hmmmmm. Be wise. I love her, she loves me era is a joke and only meant for relationship and first 4years of marriage. When your marriage is above 10years, you will know women are one million times smarter than men. 99% of them value their kids. They only build wall around you because they don't want any alien to disturb their source of income which is you.
They are tactical to cut-off friends, ladies, neighbors, family members, even your parent if you are not wise

.
Lastly if the single mum husband is dead, that is a different ball game but if the man is still alive, just have it mind that whenever the child is above 12years and mature, your story will get to Quota or nairaland

Why would any sane person advise her to leave her matrimonial home, because the husband is emotionally attached to another lady?? All these NL oloshos forming feminist advice.
I will advise you to stay in your place and continue with whatever you have going on for you, channel your love to your child and get a job or face your business and continue to pray.
Focus more on your life than the prayers, it should be a side hustle.
If you must, confide in your pastor and parents to pray with you and probably counsel him.
Leave when your life is being threatened, otherwise don't leave, do the things that make you happy, he will come to his senses soon.

If you leave
1) you abandoned your home for someone else to take over. you have made them winners
2) you will deprive your child of the love of both parents.
3) as much as polygamy scares you, have you given having different baby Daddys a thought? or have you given being Single for a large part of your life a thought?

STAY FOR AS LONG AS YOU ARE SAFE AND FOCUS ON PERSONAL IMPROVEMENT, YOUR CHILD AND EVERYTHING THAT MAKES YOU HAPPY
Life is a misery embarassed l have seen someone with similar situation. We all adviced her to go back to her father's house and leave the he-goat. After 5years, she got another guy and marry her with her child. The guy is soo responsible and caring and we were just thanking God for her. They had two children together and after 8years, the man died in an accident
