Noah9: Good morning nairalanders. Pls I'll go straight to point.
My wife and I have been married for 3 years, God has blessed our matrimony with a beautiful daughter. My wife is so decent, caring and beautiful inside out. I have been a great husband and father to my pretty daughter. I have never cheated on my wife since we got married.
Recently, she barely give me sex. Infact it would take a whole month before I could see Just the color of her undies and I wasn't happy about it.
Last week Wednesday, I committed an unspeakable abuse, I'm so ashamed of myself. I Raped my wife and I hate myself since that incident.
Honestly, I don't know what came over me that particular day, I tried to make advances towards her, she refused and she pushed my hand away. Out of anger I slapped her on her face (she bled from her mouth), I overpowered her and forcefully had my way through. She cried all through that night.
I regretted my actions, I feel remorse, I hate my Life . I have begged her seriously to forgive me but she haven't said a word to me for over 5 days now. She cook for just herself and my daughter, she no longer sleep in our matrimonial bed, she would rather sleep in my daughter's room or the visitor's room, she no longer greets me anymore.
I have never abused, beat or raised my hands on my wife or any woman before. Last week was my first time I did such an abominable act in my Life . What If any one notice we're having issues now, how will I explain to them what actually happened?
I don't even want my little daughter to know we're having issues. I don't know who to talk to. It's a faceless forum that's why I'm sharing my pain here . Pls how do I restore back happiness in my home, I need my wife to forgive me. I'm truly sorry from the depth of my heart and I promise it will never happen again.
Did you read the article? Were they caught robbing? Were they even caught with weapons? The story seems fishy. Our police have simply arrested innocent people. But no one is saying anything because they are lower class.
I'll have said that they'll be freed by the justice system, but court will use like ten years to try the case, and there's no bail because robbery is a capital offence.
jumper524: Going by the price of cement and inflation rate Toda, then we are going forward. In 1982 the naira to dollar is #1 to $0.5. Meaning if 40 bags is #1520, then 1bag is #38 or better still 19dollar. $19 dollar to naira today is 7800. In essence cement is actually cheaper today.
Dude. $19 back then is vastly different from $19 today.
GreaterFuture: Can't I just buy dollars Cash and keep at home I know it's against the law (technically),but to avoid the long story or Stress of Opening Dorm account, I can buy a few hundreds, keep and sell when dollars is high, Abi?
Is it against the law to hold dollars in cash? Didn't know about that. You could do as you stated sha.
2. Referees from two people with a non-salary current account.
3. Some banks require you to have an initial deposit. I've used GTB and they don't require a pre-existing deposit.
4. Miscellanous.
You should get a domiciliary account to protect yourself from naija inflation. If you have a substantial amount, switch from a dom account to a stablecoin.
Emefiele is a mad man. He can seize all the funds from domiciliary accounts if he runs out of ideas.
englishmart: If half the potentials of the igbos are tapped, Nigeria will be five-times better than the USA and China combined. Just give us biafra and see rapid development in 6-weeks. Within one-year, we'd become world power
ayoncox: It is unfortunate that we call tyranny good governance. The same man creating stiffening system that fustrates young kids from gaining admission through his fanaticism is called messiah. I laugh in Swahili
Liballo: You are not Emotionality, Psychologically and Financially ready for marriage. Like a thread a man made sometimes ago complaining about how his Wife's relatives eat like gluttons.
Dadaboy: Sorry what I meant to write is an island.. which is why it is crime free. They even gave me a car to use throughout. Without any fear of me running away with it.
Wow. What't the ethnic composition of the place? Are they predominatly black?
Dadaboy: I stayed in Seychelles for about three weeks before going to Ethiopia from there. Seychelles is lovely and they are open to investors and it is the most peaceful place I have ever lived since I was born since it is landlocked. No crime at all. Though Seychelles can be lonely as its a destination for tourists especially those who go for honeymoon and vacations.
Is Seychelles landlocked? I thought it was an Island?
Dadaboy: I have been to Seychelles, it doesn't look very lucrative to me except rental busineses.. but business is not why I want to relocate.
Oh. Yeah. I doubt local businesses would be lucrative. There are barely up to 100 thousand people there. I heard it's a haven for cryptocurrency companies sha. That's one of the reasons why I'm considering it in the long term.
Bisshop123: Well I don't know if an African country is in ur option cuz with dat amount u could set up a really good business dat will bring u back good amount of money in a very good African country with working government, security and other basic amenities...... Theres Botswana, namibia, Rwanda, mauritius etc....... Depending on what you want..... Just do ur own research per country.... I would advise u to leave countries like UK, Canada, US even Australia except ur looking for work there. Because there system would not favor u due to ur amount.... But if u have above $150k then u can go for Canada and Australia cuz u will set ur sef up and running in no time. But my favorite will be an African country. Cuz with that capita u will achieve more. Cheers anyway. And good luck
Rwanda though... It's not a stable country in my opinion. Paul Kagame doesn't have any reasonable succession plan. If anything happens to him, the country could go back to shit.
I am in dire need of support from people who have travel experience. When I say travel experience, I mean people who has relocated from Nigeria completely.
I will be 30 next month, single (have always hated the idea of marrying any lady in Nigeria because I have been unlucky with most of them i met as they seem complicated, inconsequential, dishonest and inexposed).
To make this short, I spent a lot of my youth working so hard to save enough money with the mindset to relocate from Nigeria as Nigeria depresses me alot.
I have been able to save nearly 20 million naira, excluding investments running in millions i wish to put on cargo to ship wherever I wish to relocate to.
Now, my problem is finding a suitable location or environment where i can relocate to without stress and problems.
Note that, I do not intend to work for anyone as I have my own skills.
United States, United Kingdom are out of my plans as I have realised their system are not built to favour me or my type of person and seem more like stress and a slavery environment to me.
I applied for Canada visa with hope to get work permit but has been on hold for months as they have been on lockdown since.
Having lived in South Africa before for a short while and felt like home there, I had it as an option but I am at crossroads, if I can have better suggestions from experienced people here.
Also, if anywhere in Europe is advisable (remember I do not wish to work for anyone except part time, in my field or if must require me to get a work visa)
Please I need advice.
What of Ghana? It seems safe. And there's no looming threat of civil war or the like. Also, 20 million naira in Ghana would take you far compared to 20 million naira in a European country. Relocating to Ghana is also not too difficult. And, since you work in entertainment, you'll be closer to your base, which is Nigeria...
