CrimeRe: Secondary School Student Stabbed To Death For Picking Money Sprayed At Wedding by omakay(m): 9:59am On Sep 27, 2021
Till this very minute, nobody has being able to explain to me the reason behind spraying of money at events.

A party is supposed to be a gathering aimed at CELEBRATING a positive event in life. But society has turned it into a chance for 'show-off'.....

From people that don't generally have much to live with in life coming out to spray money that they don't even have in the long term to couples and celebrants using that medium to recover money spent in planning the event ( some dey even target say dem go make profit sef).

A big shoutout to couples and celebrants that will hire 'professional' bouncers only for the bouncers to dey 'rag' guests during the event.

The bouncer was supposed to have taken/dragged the boy out of the place and also disarm him of any weapon assuming the boy had one.

Please when you come to my party, CELEBRATE with me and stop spraying me with money that you don't even have. If you don't have the intention of celebrating with me and accepting whatever I offer you, abeg stay your house. To come party no be by force....

Explain ‘appropriate’
Take a cue from the Japanese or the Chinese or even the Indians sir. These people are challenging the west in terms of technology etc, but they’ve maintained their culture and lifestyle.

Fufu, amala, ewedu, tuwo, vegetable soup etc are Nigerian dishes; all eaten the Nigerian way.

To eat food, you only have to pick the food from the plate to your mouth. There’s no “correct” way of eating any food sir.

Our culture dictates that you eat your meal first before eating the fish or meat. It is not wrong oo!!!

Abi you eat Amala with fork?
You do not eat Amala with fork.


You do not also have to finish the Amala first before touching the meat. You can take bites in-between.

Please, detrone the meat in the meal. It's not a king. It's just A PART of the meal.

How do I subtly let me child eat well? By telling her to eat the meat last after she is full. Using minced meat is normal stew. I didn't see it as Gold when growing up., I just saw it as a reward for eating well. I always feel relived afterwards .

spirul77:
your first paragraph makes it looks like it is a wrong thing or an abomination, every society has a way of doing things uniquely to them, why not just take it as Nigerian way of eating? Funny enough this is also done in Europe too, the way and style people live, that's culture.
I don't see anything wrong with it none have I heard a nutritionist complain about the harmful effect, so why should we change it? If you go to America and you see people eating meat before food you should know it's because it's not Nigeria, so when you see people eating meat last you should know you are in Nigeria.
Chairman, you and I know say this no be case of eating pattern.

It usually comes under the file of 'teaching the child good manners'. 'Teaching the child not to have big eyes for meat'....

Abeg, the next time we buy meatpie for our children, let us make sure we take our all the meat there and make them eat the dough and potatoes only as we wan teach them good manners.

MEAT NO BE GOLD......

Am so amazed at the speed with which you have gotten my opinion so wrong.

By Western education, I mean the form of education that makes us see the better side of life and the way we live it.

How does eating the meat last wrong?
What makes eating meat first right?
What makes eating meat in between right?

What makes the western way of eating right?
Why will future generations judge us because of the way we eat meat?

That is how we’re gradually throwing our culture and lifestyle out the window because of “wokeness”.
It's funny that you complain of 'wokeness' yet you send your children to the best 'woke' schools around.

There is nothing western about eating a meal appropriately without seeing a part of the food more 'golden' than the others.

Nothing wrong about it sir. Infact we should teach kids to eat the meat last. You know why? Many kids eat because of the meat, if you let them eat meat first, they won't finish eating the meal.

This I did as a kid and I always remember when I always wish to just take the meat off rice and run. As a parent how will that make you feel
You have programmed these children to see the meat as gold. They will in turn treat it as gold.

Try using minced meat to prepare your stews and sauce for like 4months and see how their enthusiasm for meat will float away.
FoodRe: Eating Meat Last: Why Do Most Nigerians Do This? by omakay(m): 3:45pm On Sep 10, 2021
A very wrong form of training that has being passed on from generation to generation and no one bothers to question these tenets.

Parents train children to see meat as gold. Why the children no go dey steal meat from pot!!!!

Funny enough, it is the same meat that is being sold as suya outside for very cheap amounts.

This present generation needs to do away with some nonsense if not our children go judge us to our face.

N.B : Children are getting very smart now thanks to Western education and they can see through all our mistakes.

There is no such agreement.

Get a good lawyer and sue.
Do you know why extended family members are able to take advantage of situations like this?

Because most of the time, they know that the wife and children are clueless of what is theirs.

A lot of us here have children who are above 20yrs yet cannot disclose details of family property until one is no longer around and someone takes undue advantage.

Maybe the father and the brother had an agreement that involved that house and the brother is only fulfilling what might be the clause in the agreement. MAYBE ooooo. Before una begin shout here anyhow.

Because of the unnecessary secrecy of the father, we will never know.
Car TalkRe: 2007 Lexus ES 350 Bad Ground Clearance by omakay(m): 1:25am On Aug 07, 2021
My brother, you should know the spec of vehicle that you have.

The Lexus brand is a LUXURIOUS PERFORMANCE SEDAN.

It's a sedan so ground clearance is usually low.

It's a luxurious vehicle. Not meant or built for bad/offroads in mind.

Performance sedans usually do need to almost kiss the ground like super cars so as to perform in the max.




I own a es300 and despite my 18inch rim, I had to work on my kyb shocks to achieve low ground clearance. This is what is expected of a lexus sedan. If you don't want that, then maybe you should not be using a lexus.

Are you not matured enough to own a car of your own and even fix when the cars has issues?

If you friend does not trust you with repairing his car should you/him bash it, he is not your friend.

The same friend that does not trust you with fixing his car well is still the same one that will want to collect referral from you had it being he was the one who bashed his own car.

The man did not spend that money alone.

Everybody who has benefited from that money whether family or friends is a thief too.

If as a Delta youth, if he has settled you with money after hailing him with the 'honourable' slogan, you are a thief too.

Every family member and community member that has collected money from this man either in cash or in kind is a thief too.

Xmas is around the corner and this man will go to his community for yelutide celebrations. As much as all and sundry that will receive this man and his stolen money, una hand sef no clean.

I think it's time we begin to address these issues from the grassroots.

I like the orderly manner the NPF handled themselves.

Now, it is time for the FG to bring in the N.A to mop up this job because this is a case of 'TERRORISM'.

This is a commercial and economic crime. Because the act of the hoodlums is part of the bottlenecks that importers face at the ports.
