BMCSlayer: I was surprised at first when I saw it, but apparently its very important. And schools abroad require it. Lol abroad plenty o, which country in the abroad are you talking about? For MOST schools in UK, they will never ask for secondary school transcript for admission or else the person is applying for UG year 1 entry and even at that, the best they will ask for is WASSCE certificate and probably wassce scratch card. |

Let me also say this, the hit man was known by the police but they could not do anything cos big boys backed him. I think currently, they have turned their bcks on him that’s why the police caught him (they have always known where he was long ago). Same with Mc Oluomo, Olohunwa, Kunle poly they are all murderer but MC gets away with his cos he is tinubus boy. Olohunwa is no longer relevant that’s why he is being disgraced like this or else the case would have been buried.
Once you Have string backings in naija, You can get away with anything. Also all the assassins and herdsmen and what have you are all know by the police. If the police wants to stop crime today, they can but the problem is, most of these criminals have string backings by someone powerful which makes the policemen scared of doing their job. Everyone wants to protect what they eat. Cc Madridguy |

ewebiodun: Bros, do u think assassins can be that stupid to get caught so easily and to start singing like a bird just like dat
Its so easy to get a nobody to come out and confess to a crime, promise him money or guarantee visas for his wife and children to leave the country. Tell him to come out and confess and claim ur rival sent him on the mission, simulate call logs to make it look like truly such discussions happened between them Mr nobody gets locked up and case keeps getting adjourned till no one remembers, Mr nobody goes under and gets released from prison with no one knowing and ur rival can go in for it or get his name tainted for life.Mr nobody has nuffin to loose You made sense but that assassin is well known.... kunle poly and MC know that guy. Kunle poly was the person they wanted to kill just last month but he escaped and luckily and his PA was the one killed. That guy above is a well know hit man in the circle of NURTW and politicians. |

[quote author=Nchabuomo post=61485624]Hi please can you yarn me the Nigerian restaurant in Glasgow
@Nchabuomo, Okay in Glasgow, there are only 2 active black restaurants/ pubs (at least that I know).
The restaurant beside queen street close to Strathclyde univeristy that spacyzuma was telling you about is called Comforter. Oh my God the restaurant is run by a Nigerian man and his wife. The man is so horrible and has bad customer service while the wife is a good woman. To be honest, I only go there cos of the woman. Their food, it is manageable. They are ibo so you can get lots of ibo foods there. Make sure you go with cash cos they don’t have POS, the environment is average looking and you will easily know you are in an African pub. This information I give you is very up to date cos I was still there last week �
The most popular African restaurant with lots of African girls (Kenya, Gambia, Nigerians, Ghanaians) coming to flex is called Calabash and it is on union street, close to Glasgow central station. I think the owner is a Kenyan but they sell Naija foods as well. They have pounded yam, jollof rice, goat head (isi-ewu), choma (it is just like suya), pepper soup etc the environment here is also just average, there is just this African look you notice once you get there.
If you are looking for a pub that runs till 1am, you want to drink, flex, party and probably get some African chicks, with Naija songs playing, then calabash on Union street is the place. Go there on Friday and Saturday around 10pm. Please note, you will have fun but it is just manageable. You can never get that Lagos grove here in Glasgow. As a proper Lagos boy, I rate all these pubs 20%, na manage we dey manage them, cos options are limited. I was in calabash just 2 days ago and I will be there coming Saturday (10/02/18).
After you grove till 1am on Friday and Saturday, you can enter sugarcube club (they open till 3am and close by). Shey na school you come school for here? Make I no spoil you, have responsible fun and stay focused, make sure the OT is there. Also, I hope you know the rules of flexing right? Be careful with the white ladies, very careful. Let your OT be sharp and strong.
P.S
Alternatively, you can try botheco (google botheco for the adress), it is a Brazilian pub that opens till 3am, that place is fun. |

Arielle: Hi house. Please I need some info from people in Glasgow. What is a good area to live in near the university of Glasgow. Did some research and the rents in the West End seem a bit steep. Where is the next best place, safe and close enough to the Uni, in a cachement area for good secondary schools (I'm coming with my 2 pre-teen boys). A 2 bedroom or a roomy 1 bedroom. We can rough it for a while. I'm also looking for a market for my business. How can i go about this? I will have braided wigs, ankara tops and summer dresses, ankara and batik button- down shirts for men ( all great with jeans), backpacks made with ankara, denim and leather mix. All for sale. Oga Justwise I'm not advertising oh!
So any help? Any advice? Thanks All The best place to sell your stuffs is to connect with other Nigerians via the church. You can easily sell to them that way. Try attend any of the churches here and you are good to go.... I think winners has the largest congregation here in Glasgow. Uni of Glasgow is on Dumbarton road, any house on Dumbarton road is good, Partick (this is about 5 - 10 minutes on the bus to the school, it is closer to the UNi so it would be on the high side), sauchiehall street (about 10 minutes but expensive flats), yoker (20minutes to the school, cheap flats), Anniesland or drumchapel (20 minutes to the school and cheap flats), duke street (about 15-20 minutes street, cheap flats and lots of blacks reside here). To be honest, Glasgow is generally safe and very friendly people. I have been to at least 5 countries in the world (over 15 cities) and for me, Glaswegians are the nicest so far. I never knew this thread was still active though. |

Crime › Re: Abuja Man, Zeal To Stella MissyAyom: "We Had Sex 3 Times, I Didn't Rape You" by OlowoB(m): 3:58pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
gozzlin: Madam, what are you even yapping about? And to think you are a lady yet you support him is totally disgusting. I hope when you or any of your female relation falls victim to rape you'll feel happy about it.
How can you say that all ladies in Abj are ashawos? Does it mean all your female relations who live in Abuja are prostitutes? How can you make such a blanket claim? Do you think like a sane person or you think through your fvcking anus?
Going through the guy's story and the lady's account of events, it's very obvious the guy was lying. For the mere fact that he admitted that he never intended to give the lady a job, that he just wanted to have sex with her shows that he was ready to do anything to have sex with her that day whether she wants it or not. And for the fact that he stole her money without permission and refused to pay her back after promising to do so shows the kind of useless human being he is.
Moreover he admitted that the lady only contacted him on account of the job he promised to give her, so why label her an ashewo? The guy doesn't have shishi in his pocket yet he made all the promises in the world. To add insult to injury, he wants to have sex with her after stealing her money. And when she refused, he forced himself on her.
One pertinent question you should ask yourself is, those wounds and marks on her body and her eyes came from where? Perhaps she wounded herself, right? Or perhaps the wounds were as a result of the violent sex they had, right?
Try to make use of your God-given brain. The guy deserves a lot more than the trouble he got, he's a scammer, a thief and a rapist. He deserves a long time in jail. And the lady who was looking for job was ready to go to club and sleep over at a guys place (someone you don’t know) over night? The easy way to even know a runs girl, a guy sent waiter to call you and you quickly answered him, hungry girl. The guy is also a scammer taken advantage of girls, using them and dumping them. Both the guy and the girl are useless and should be flogged throughly. You all have forgotten that if that guy were to be a ritualist, she would have been dead by now. Which responsible girl follows a guy home, a guy you just met? Shows the kind of girl she is. 2 idiots. |

texazzpete: More insensitive than rape?
Say the truth, how many girls have you raped before? Most of you old members of Nairaland suddenly become so “fool” of yourselves. How did you conclude it was rape? Just based on one sided story? Which normal and welll brought up girl follows a guy home and sleep all trough the night cos of “job”. You must be an old fool to believe that crap. What I think happened? This is a case of a runs girl versus a scammer. The guy got what he deserved. To all the young guys on here who still wants to flex and enjoy life, never ever argue or drag with a girl who has nothing to lose, pay them and keep your peace. This is the OT for all sabi guys or get yourself a good girl and forget doing all those nonsense. The choice is yours. |

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: What Is Expected Of A Social Media Manager/Influencer? by OlowoB(m): 7:54pm On Jan 03, 2018 |
mitchyy: Being a social media manager for brand is not as easy as ABC. That is why they asked for previous experience. Since you do not have any, you can prep up your personal social media accounts and present as your experience. DO NOT LIE!
As for what to expect on this job, here are some few things to note:
You'll need to familiarize yourself with social media applications, at least the popular ones. How well do you know the features of Instagram, Facebook and Twitter? It doesn't end with just putting up a picture and sharing it. Are you familiar with hashtags? Can you use them effectively? Can you tag properly and mention someone in a post? Can you run adverts on at least one of the platforms? Those are some of the basic things they expect you to have knowledge on.
There are social media tools for analytics and scheduling posts. Are you aware of any? Do a quick research on them and have a general idea. Some of them include Buffer, Later, Onlypult, Hootsuite, Postso and lots more.
Do you know how to source for good content free of errors? The first social media manager job I got, I was asked to send out a couple of tweets right there during the interview. And they waited to see the response the tweet will attract. Fortunately for me, I'm quite witty when writing and got a good number of retweets in minutes. So prep yourself for similar scenario.
If this happens, remember the basics for a social media post: Good quality image, error-free post text, proper hashtags, and customise each post for each channel. Instagram favors the use of more hashtags than Facebook and is more about visuals, while Twitter has post limit.
Follow popular social media influencers and learn from them. They are very many.
You obviously can't be a pro overnight but if you can impress them with a knowledge of these basic things, they might not bother about previous experience as long as you show a willingness to learn and improve.
To further impress them, visit their social media channels(if they already do) and put together a simple strategy on how you intend to grow their brand on social media. Speak like you already work with them Op you should read this up.... thumbs up. |
