If you are making 1m and u are spending 989k on bills, you can never be rich in your life and that's not a curse. It's not your duty to carry your girlfriend's family wahala on your head.

If you do and let's say she later made it in life, she'll probably remember her family first and will even ask you what you did for her.

I will advice you to runaway from her if not, na you go tire.

Girlfriend not wife o.

Where are her siblings?

First of all, you have to understand that no matter the situation you find yourself is as a result of your actions and in actions.

Also feeling pity, crying, wailing will never solve your problems, rather hardwork, perseverance, and can do attitude is what you need to win.

Now, look at your present situation, your merits, demerits, resources and forge out something positive out.

You see, one thing I know is that, whenever you see a problem, that's a sign that your upliftment have come.

Family / Re: Complex Marital Issue : Your Thoughts On This Please. by Olumaeme: 9:03am On Sep 30, 2022
This women are very funny. They think sitting at home, washing plates, cooking 3 cups of rice is more difficult than siting in the office from morning to night and thinking about how to bring money to the home for them to sit and enjoy.

While home care is also work, it is too small to compare with someone bringing money. If its easy, go out and work and bring money lets see, afterall he didn't tie your hands and legs. We have even seen women who are taking care of their family and still making good money. isnt it?

Now, Your husband does not have any business with your sister and her husband. What exactly are you people expecting? WHy are they even calling him? Ordinarily, they should be coming through you and if at all he want to help, it should be through you. If your sister want to get married, she should go ahead and not disturb him nau.

Try and look for how to apologize, and if he is still sending money home for the kids upkeep, then let him be.

You are purely an ingrate.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Lost My Job Today, After Few Months Of Employment by Olumaeme: 12:27pm On Sep 28, 2022
When i read some of this things like this online, it make me laugh hard as if people expects that life would continue to be sweet without problems. LOL

See, life is full of battles, problems will always be hitting you hard, the earlier you know it, the better for you. If you want to kpai, kuku kpai now because there will still be problems even if you become Elon Musk tomorrow.

As human, i am always expecting disappointment anytime, so that when it comes, you quickly look for how to move on.

So with your situation, the next thing you should be thinking about is a new job, but before the job comes, you have to survive, isn't it? Do you have any skills that you can deploy? If no, then you have to resort to manual labor on construction sites, buying and selling, see just look around and find something doing. If you like sit down, think and cry all day, you wont get shi shi.

If you are able to identify something doing, then make sure you cut down on your lifestyle and spending. Don't put money on what is not important, be focused and look and know what you are doing!

Be strong! I tell you, someothing great is about to happen in your life! This is not a motivational talk!

Family / Re: My kids are being trained in an hotel!! I Need Advice.. by Olumaeme: 1:36pm On Sep 02, 2022
Your kids are been trained in a very bad situation and the best time to take them back is NOW! Kids who are raised in Hotels and beer parlors will behave differently as they are already used to that kind of satanic lifestyle from childhood and environment influences someone's behavior a lot.

Go and get your kids, if you have mother let them stay with your mum or look for caregivers around and pay to get them to stay there until you arrive. If you have a girlfriend and she is willing to help, you can also bring her in.
Family / Re: My Colleague's Husband Stresses His Wife Daily by Olumaeme: 11:52am On Sep 02, 2022
Your colleague need to quit the marriage. Its not by force or tell the man to get a maid.

You see, people must learn to put their well being over anybody. If someone is not allowing you to enjoy your life, you have to expunge them, no matter who they are, maybe your parents, husband, wife, brother etc.

You are not placed in this world to serve anybody, you have the right to do and not do, you have the right to say YES or NO.

No be by force.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Ngos Job Adverts" Na Wash " by Olumaeme: 1:37pm On Sep 01, 2022
Biggest lie.

I work with an NGO. Infact, this is the second NGO i'm working and i dont know anybody.

Let me tell you, the competition is very high, and your CV have to be very tight.

I have been opportuned to be part of a shortlisting process, one position we had exactly 358 applicants, and only 5 was shortlisted, you can imagine how many good candidtates wont get it.

Before i got my first NGO job, i applied for over 300 positions, and the second one i applied for over 100 but maybe you just applied for 30 and you start complaining.

Also there are some factors that affect getting the jib.

1. NGOs mostly prefer people that have worked within the sector. Its very difficult to quickly key into the policies, and how the system works. They take compliance seriously, and the projects have timeline. They don't have time to train you. Global fund project is one of the most difficult to run, maybe when you finally get it, you will understand.

2. NGOs prefer those who have already worked for them - Most NGOs are based on funding and projects, and when projects close, contracts will be automatically terminated. If new project comes, the organization will most likely consider their staff without jobs first.

3. International certifications: They don't joke with qualifications. We all know Nigerian graduates are quacks, so those who have international certifications have an edge. for example, i currently work as a logistics and procurement officer, and i spent over 3m naira on certifications alone. IFMA USA cost me over 1.2m, i am currently on CIPS UK and have spent close to 400k already. I did Post Graduate Diploma in Logistics for 300k and it was after my IFMA and PGD that i started getting interviews.

4. Experience: NGO environment is a fast paced one and they need people with hands on experience. The best way to enter is through volunteering and you can see people on that for 4-6yrs before getting assistant position, especially if you don't have 3 above. Also, where you have worked matters, they will consider someone who have not worked in an NGO but has worked in big organizations like say MTN, GTB, BUA, Delloite etc, because they know you would have been used to well structured organization rather than one corner shop.

5. CV - Plenty people dont know how to write a good CV and cover letter. I see some CVS and i just laugh. They fill it with irrelevant informations like Age, Religion, Local Government LOL, and then copy and paste the job responsibilities they see online, which is the most funniest. Sometimes, the one on the advert. You have to make your CV achievement based. Your CV have to show real value and how you have contributed to where you work (save time, save money, increase turn over, compliance). If you are applying for a facility manager for example, dont tell them you supervise cleaning and changing of bulb, of course they know, tell them you proposed the changing from 50watt bulbs to 16watt bulbs and reduce overhead cost by 30%. Say you supervised the relocation of office with zero casualty and minimal disruption of workflow. Tell them you reduced turn around time from 3days to 48hrs by removing administrative bottleneck or onboarding new facility management vendor etc. They want to see what your actions on the job has achieved. If you are applying for social media manager, say you grow the organizations facebook page from 2k followers to 15k which is over 400% followers in 2 months without increasing the budget. They already know you are an achiever and dont need to be tossed around and spoonfed to know what to do.

Although, its faster if you have someone on the inside but the process is very rigorous. This my present job, i did 4 stages of interviews and one of the stages was from a team from UK, so even if the Nigeria team did ojoro and shortlist people who are not competent, they will know.
Sometimes, they re-advertise vacancies up to 2 times because they are yet to get a competent person to fill it. I remember when we were looking for country director, it took more than 2years to fill that vacancy.

But the stress is worth it as pay is good, they pay on time, no delay. Throughout COVID, full salary was still entering even when others are lamenting and you have access to good medicare. You can use the best hospitals in this country that senators use sef.

The road is very narrow! Plenty people like better thing!

Men need to understand that when demands are made in that line, they can get a NO as an answer and its fine.

What people dont understand is that, Peter Obi must not win 2023, and the Obidient Movement is not about Peter Obi alone, but a movement for the betterment of the country Nigeria and sending the crooked leaders packing.

Obi could come back stronger in 2027 and win, just like Buhari and other leaders outside the country.

Also, someone may draw your attention to a dream and the dream even becomes bigger than them. That is what the Obidient dream is all about.

Car Talk / Re: Police Vows To Go After Producers Of Rotating Number Plates by Olumaeme: 9:00am On Aug 24, 2022
This people are not serious.

Most government vehicles have 2 numbers. The registered number when the vehicle was bought and the government issued plate number.
I work in the non profit sector and we have FG plate number for all vehicles in our fleet. Sometimes, you remove the FG number when traveling to high risk regions in the South East like Anambra where IPOB are attacking government properties. If you are in the north, you can use the FG number. Probably this one just used a technology that help them change it without having to remove.

Nothing special.
