Why do I doubt this couple's culpability?

You are not alone.

From the many testimonies of one chance victims that we know, these people doesn't fit the profile of "notorious one chance" couple.

I guess they are the type that pick pocket passengers stuff. One of my friend was a victim of such where they trick her to adjust her seat while one from the back remove her phone from her bag.

The notorious ones are far hardened than these

One chance did not start today in Abuja neither did it increase during Tinubu's back door presidency. During my days in Abuja, a colleague of mine was robbed twice by these one chance syndicates, they cleared her accounts using pos machines. Policemen are also involved in this act as they refused to prosecute the case after all the evidences presented to them.
I also know of a lady that these one chance guys used pillars in pulling off her skin. Abuja is not a safe place, this made me to run away from the place.

I was looking for comments like this. Residents of Abuja know that one chance has always been in Abuja. It's only gaining much media attention recently. I also know some persons who have been their victim some years ago.

Close to 120 and I'll start imagining how my my funeral will look like.

I'm sure I have good reasons to feel like that. Almost every week, I see ghastly accidents on the road. Over speeding and lack of patience being the usual culprit.

Abuja roads can be very tempting.

She is a genius!!
Instead of bottling up her resentments she chosed to air them out.
What a genius!!!

If my name were on her list I would apologize to her Immediately.

Well, you would also need to get "a/any marriage certificate" , start minding your business and renounce your Cameroonian citizenship and make sure you don't have many children. Only then you can be on a clean slate with when

If you know that almost all accounting/finance job openings require ICAN certification or add it as an added advantage and that you stand no chance in landing the job where there are a number of certified or ICAN student candidates then you will realize it is not overrated but a necessity.

VillageHead:
Nice.
how many passengers will it carry now?

I wonder too.

But to make up for it he might choose to charge premium.

Some people may not mind to pay extra for the experience

You aren't smart enough. Next time don't give phone to strangers whether urgent or not

I gave my phone to a stranger who approached me to make a call last week. Guess what, it is the phone I'm using to post this comment. Yeah nothing happened. The woman thanked me and went her way.

I once lost my phone and I had to beg strangers to make a call to my number for me to be able to trace it.

Well, why all this stories? That she in good faith lend her phone to a stranger doesn't mean she isn't smart. It isn't her fault. She was been taken advantage of. It could happen to anyone

This should be like 200 naira here in Abuja.

adedayoa2:
abeg which area you dey for Abuja, cuz that pepper is not even up to #50 where I stay.

I was about asking the same question because that quantity I see there is even smaller than the jara I get for 200 naira pepper in Lugbe

Trust me I feel your pains Bro, I am my own counselor and motivator and I try as much as I can not to let those things affect me even if I can't help it on some cases, most people even call me stingy cos I am always happy and they mostly think I have money and don't have my own problems cause of my happy mood most times even my mum always says nothing seem to bother me, the only thing that bothers me is not getting a good paying job which I hope will change soon, I hardly communicate with those I know but they are always quick to ask after me cos of my happy vibes and not giving trouble to people as I know what it means to be pained.


Please for your own sake, try to forget those things, I know it's hard but you have to try, when you make money no matter how little try to spoil yourself and go out more, though I plan to do those things this year as most part of my working days after school I have been saving aggressively to have an apartment of my own and explore life at my own convenience.

Even they are the ones complaining about my staying indoors always but the truth is I don't have friends nearby and even the far away ones are busy with work and our free time clashes.

You can imagine I can't even ride a bicycle not to talk of a car and he owned two cars and a bus at different times, it's just the way they see discipline. And it will shock you to know that millions of people are on this table, you can check out various thread on Twitter.

And concerning not been happy about life, some people without our kind of upbringing are not happy with how life has turned to also.

We can do better as new and upcoming parents, na prayer for cool headed partner be the main thing now.

All the best Bro and I wish you well.

Thank you bro *chop knuckle*

Rubysugar:
I'm so sorry. This hit me

Thank you

cayorday89:
I can relate with what you experienced, and I was also punished severally for things that others do normally but because of that I was extremely careful with things that will put me into real trouble, and as a result of that I do things on my own, that if at all they get to know I will take the secret to death and deny doing it, as a result I became a lone ranger and I cover my tracks wella.

Eyaa. Sorry.

Maybe I'm not as smart as you in avoiding problems and I'm not fortunate enough to get away from troubles.

I'm still trying to figure out what lasting effect my tumultuous childhood has on me. I feel I'm hardly happy about life, I mean the ability to show happiness or ecstasy about good things compare to many people in general. I don't think I have ever been happy enough to get me to dance (I can't dance by the way). But I'm never a sadist.

I feel it is just my nature but I also feel I shouldn't rule out my painful childhood.

I could relate several.

But I better let bygones be bygones otherwise I might be overwhelmed with pains and bitterness because I don't think I deserved the severity of those beatings (even if I deserved the beating at all).

Edit:

To make you understand, I've been beaten with twisted electric wire - the thick one that brings light from the pole to the house, to the extent that on one occasion the ending of the wire landed on one of my eyes. It was blood shoot that I was rejected by several eye clinics in Lagos. I could have gone blind if not for an hospital like that in Oshodi where I was admitted for 7 days. The crime? I skipped summer lessons because I was scared to tell the teacher that my parent said the fees would be paid later.

Another, I served punishment (up down or sew machine. A kind of frog jump but you'll be on a spot) for several hours into the night and after, serious beating. Reason? My younger ones removed their new doll my mother bought them from the package. Till today, I don't know why I was punished for that.


Another on I was flogged, pursued on the street while I'm being called thief, I had no choice but to return into the room to continue with the beating instead of disgracing myself in the street. I was hit with a hoe on the head with blood splashing of our white wardrobe (I still come across hidden blood stain in several places on the wardrobe weeks after the incident) before the beating stopped. Reason? No, I didn't steal anything. I was only making a stand for my new found faith.


See op ehn, this are just few, very few. If not that as they say time heals the heart, and also the many benefits I got from my parents...

Another edit:

I know I deserved some punishment. On the other hand, there are some of my naughty deeds that surprisingly went unpunished.

For example I once removed the ceiling fan regulator from the wall to regulate a rotor, connecting it to battery. (I learnt from there that tiger battery can give you as shock with that thing)
Also, I removed the rotor from that olden days big black disc player, rendering it useless. And many more. No one was even questioned to my greatest surprise.

I also realized from many people's comments here that my childhood isn't unusual, but I think mine was a bit above the 'generation average'.

I wish I was born in this generation with soft parents

Try and read the story

This article exposed those who didn't (or bother to finish reading) but are busy making sympathetic comments like many on the first page.

This is something revealing. Don't take nairalander too serious.

Good day all.

Daily Saving Officer and POS operator urgently needed in Apo and Masaka

Please send CV to abiokareem@gmail.com or call 09075769935

The GRM department manager sent an email to All Staff asking interested staff to indicate interest for some of the bank's appliances to be disposed stating their prices.

Yours truly replied the mail, asking if a standing fan of 5k or so can go for 1,500. Voila!

It's when my boss and another manager started talking about my interest in the fan before I realized I've replied to ALL STAFF!!

Did I just read "idle electricity" or Nigeria is planning on scamming them?

In this our economy. Some days the son of man can be broke.

I ask money (of course I mean borrow) from my friends - boys and girls alike, sisters, mother anyone that happens to be at hand.

Na man I be, I no be superman

Let me also contribute to this matter.

For people saying 51%, it's rather 50%+ 1 share.

In a case of 200,000 share capital, 51% = 102,000 shares. However,100,001 shares (which is 50% + 1 share) is what is needed to be the majority.

Love letter at last!

Say they say, we move!

Miranda1:
I'm yet to receive any mail or sms
Anyone still waiting and hopeful like me?

I'm yet to receive any mail too

charlesu49:
Bro relax... people are allowed to be hopeful, it’s alright if you have moved on. No one is judging, recruitments can be grueling.

I know. I made that comment just to help people see know what to expect.

I too very much hope that it won't be so this year.

Cassa93:
Wanted to point this out.....but I don't want to be a messenger of doom. I remember last year after the wait, it came out a regret mail. I will advice those who haven't received mail to prepare their hearts for love letter while hoping for a success mail.. The OPQ assessment begins on Monday, except their will be another batch (which is unlikely), the odd is pointing to love letters.

I also noticed they sent those love letters 3 days after the first batch of success and regret mails.

And the sobering part is that not a single person reported receiving success mail in the second batch.

So, if you haven't receive mail from them like me, if last year's process to be followed, you need to forget about receiving a success mail.

Tsound007:
PwC HR ensures they give everyone a level playing ground and I'm so proud of them.

Great people there.

As someone said in one other thread, they have a great work environment. One can easily see that that's true even from the recruitment experience.

I just wish I am there already.

kaylieeb:
Just finished mine......

You get mind o

Kingtim:
na once man dey die lol.... Past question helped a little Sha.. At some point I shook my head. And silently said affliction will not rise a second time.

I saw past questions too. But regrettably, they were the ones I didn't practice because there were no answers in the past question I used.

I just dey wait till result come out make we know how far

I'm I the only person who feels relieved when others are complaining of how difficult the numerical is?

If this will comfort anyone, of the whole questions only one or two options I selected were what I calculated and got. Others were pick and go

It seems the same is applicable to many other people
