RealEzee: If to say dem no dey misappropriate funds anyhow Shey money no go dey to build roads ni?
Well the private guys should know we'll hold them responsible for any mumu road plus they should keep account of what we are paying oo, infact put a big notice board showing the daily deductions let's know how much is left to pay and remove the toll cos I no trust this govt at all, big big roads ooo, don't come n do 2 lanes and start building toll gate, better make it 8 lane each gbayi or 10 to and fro sef, means of payment should be easy, plus #100 to and fro, infact #100 per day sef, well lit ooo.
You wish. Go and ask those living in Lekki and how LCC have grossly been irresponsible.
Just drive down to Lekki Epe expressway and determine if that road is worth the money they generate everyday. Suffering and smiling generation.

SoccerUSA: As seen in the topic, I have two friends that travelled to the U.S, One travelled 2014 and the other one 2017, though before they left we had a good vibes we were both close if not best friends before they left.
The one of 2014 stopped texting me at 2018 or so even when I wished him birthday wishes and same with the other. I knew this because I only texted them on Facebook and you will know when they read and not reply.
I don't hold any grudges against them though Did you guys think it's normal? Like if I leave Nigeria, Would I also ignore my friends text even if they do not request anything from me?
Please can someone just explain to me so I won't see my friends (maybe former friends) as bad ones.
3 jobs on a roll, 7 days a week, direct debits coming in at the end of the month (power, water, phone, internet, etc), income tax, road tax, tv license, council tax and even black tax sef. G, abroad nor be beans, they are simply fighting their own battles. Since Nigerians generally assume you are well off after travelling overseas, nobody has the time to shalaye. You need an insider to tell you that
In Nigeria, you can owe for some of this services, over there it is practically impossible.

Should half of DSTV subscribers in Nigeria stop renewing subscription, they will have no choice other than to reduce prices. Not like they have good contents anyway. I stopped paying months ago and have not missed them one bit.
Ope88: Please don't read and pass, also Pardon all my typo, I'm typing out of duress.
I am from a family of six, 3 girls, 1 boy including my parents. I had a horrible childhood experience, My Mum (no thanks to her) was something I can't quantify, I can't start writing every of the things she did and I can't say If the religion she practiced contributed largely to the devilish attitude she put up while growing up.
My mum has no good record anywhere, in the church, with the neighbours, with her siblings, we the children, her in laws and even at work, She was always at war with people, if she dreams that someone was trying to attack her in the dream, if she sees the person the following day, she was ready to attack the person.
Also, she would curse her children at any slightest provocation and leave only my brother out(last born and spoilt), She doesn't have any good relationship with her siblings and won't allow my dad visit his family member, I remembered them (Mum and dad) always saying this (don't be unequally yoked together with unbelievers). To them anyone who isn't a Christian (deeper life) is not supposed to be associated with.. My dad on countless occasion will call his mum a witch just because she was a Muslim and one of the oloyes of allasalatu(Muslims will understand this) and had nothing to do with his family members.
This went on and on like this until my elder sister moved out of the house and in the process of trying to find her feet, she got pregnant and my mom practically tormented her life, she later got married to the man, and for that act alone, she's always at logger heads with my sister and her husband..
Later, I got married and then my younger sister followed suit, leaving my dad, herself and my younger brother (whom I have disowned).
Ever since the three of us got happily married, and left the home, my dad slipped into severe depression. Although he has been depressed given lots of things he encountered, job loss, no social interaction, unforgiveness amongst others, it became severe when all his female children left, then from severe depressgion, he started having mental issues, he would wake up and leave the house talking to himself, or start preaching and going out of point with anyone he finds on the street, sometimes he would leave and come home at night, my younger brother who is supposed to comfort and help him, treats him with disdain, my mum who is supposed to check mate his excesses would leave him to his folly and now he has started standing up to her and everyone else in the house..
At 26, he doesn't know his bearing and obviously we have been seeing signs of him wanting to inherit the houses my father built in the same compound.. (and we have noticed that my mum has been making him understand that every of the property belongs to him).
The last straw which broke the camel's back happened one week ago, my elder sister ( who is 9 year older than him) took advantage of the lockdown and visited my father, he is usually exited when we are around him whc helps his severe moodiness. There and then an argument broke out between my sister and my brother, she asked why my brother was insulting our mum for an action that happened in the compound, he beat my sister up and her three children and boasted that, the rest of us (my sister and I) dare not do anything and that by the way we must stop coming to the house, that if he sees any of us He will beat us up, My mum who was supposed to resolve the matter started blaming my sister, asking her why she always love to come visiting, that she's supposed to be in her husband's house or father in laws place and immediately called her hubby to come pick her.
Its been one week my sister left for her house, my daddy who enjoyed her company when she was present started misbehaving again at home. He started roaming, he started cursing everyone.
The reason I'm writing is this, my dad is no where to be found, he left the house yesterday Friday 15th May 2020 and was last seen in ITAMAGA IKORODU, we keep trying his number but he is not picking and now his number is switched off, I'm sure he is still wandering about.
My sisters and I have decided that even when he is found(by God's grace) we do not what him to go back living with my mum and brother.
What other alternatives do we have to care for him, as his own siblings are not happy with him either for abandoning them and their mum (his own mum),, when they needed him the most..
I AM SO SORRY FOR THE LONG POST.. PLEASE HELP ME.
Modified..... My dad has been found today Sunday, 17th May 2020, my sweet mother (elder sister) found her, she has been on her feet since he went missing, luckily he was found but in a terrible state, I saw him via video calls and I wept, he can't recognize even my sister again, and just muttering some words we don't understand, he closes his eyes while saying this and asked everyone to go and leave him, he looks so faint and weak and would not leave where he his...My sister has called his siblings and she's waiting for the next line of ACTION from them.
I'll keep updating the house with reports from our end..
Don't be sorry for the long epistle, it's done already and it's on purpose.
So you actually expect me to spare time to read this nonsense about your family? Why are you people so inconsiderate?
I see a lot of babies on this thread. No experience, just diving into shark infested water.
First off, never judge a matter without listening to the other party.
Second off, she has not been able to specifically determine what is wrong with her husband. That's not good enough.
Third off, she seems to be so conscious of her support for the family. I would have thought marriage is a joint adventure.
Contrary to general believe, our Mothers were the pillar of the family. If they're providing support, no 3rd party will ever know about it. . They won't throw it in the face of our fathers. They were humble, selfless and stuck with the family for the sake of MOST OF US TODAY. This issue has always been there and will always be cuz in marriage, what you have are 2 adults with different home training coming together as one. Here lies the place of compromise.
From experience, couples now try to change each other and in the process end up with deep regret and hate particularly when you have a partner who keeps doing what you have repeatedly said is your don't.
Don't be quick to judge please. Let me burst your brain, that man might actually be praying for her to just leave him the hell alone. His reasons? Nobody can tell except he tells his side of the story.
Lordsonn: Greetings to you all. I want to go straight to the point. I opened this account because of my marital problems.
From the day I met my wife, she was after marriage. In less than two weeks of meeting her, she started pressurizing me to meet her family members which I succumbed to.
These are what she told me at the beginning of the relationship:
1) She had HND from Kaduna Polytechnics 2) She has Diploma in Computer Science 3) She is a professional cake baker 4) She was three months pregnant 5) That she was 27 years
My discoveries after marriage:
1) She doesn’t have any HND, infact no good WAEC result 2) She cannot even connect laptop to printer and print. She don’t know much about computer at all. 3) She doesn’t know how to bake cake. I discovered that the cake I asked her to bake for me, she gave the contract to her friend. 4) She was never pregnant. She had fibroid and that made her tummy big 5) She was 33 years.
NOTE: the reasons why I believed all she told me at the beginning was because she was a prophetess in her church. She speaks in tongues and prophesy many times and most of the prophecies came to pass.
I was even surprised that in less than two weeks of our relationship, she made move for sex and we started having sex. I did not even think of pre-marital sex because I thought she was a holy woman.
The problems after marriage: several people began to beg me to forgive her and continue with the marriage. I find it difficult but she was still living in my house. I was just being forced my her family and her family members persuaded some of my family members to beg me too. I tried to love her but hatred for her was just building in my heart.
The fibroid surgery was successfully done and she got pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy. I thought the coming of the child may make me to forgive her but I could not recover from her betrayal. I even hate her more.
She wrote WAEC last session and got nine credits but the memory of her betrayal is giving me a lot of psychological trauma. I love an educated woman and cannot see myself glued to an illiterate woman in the name of marriage.
Major problems that made me sent her out:
1) She refused to go to my church. She always want to go to her church and even want me to join her there which I refused. 2) She doesn’t like education at all. She hate going to school and will never carry book to read. 3) Anytime I have disagreement with her, she will call her elder brother. And they will come and talk to me, sometimes in a very condescending manner 4) She is not submissive, very arrogant and talks with anger, authoritatively. 5) She is a societal woman, she loves joining several associations of women and be going to meetings every sunday which I don't like. 6) She value clothes more than human being. She can use any money from the family purse to buy Hollandis, lase, George etc just to dress to her church for show off. I am introvert but she is extremely extrovert.
I sent her out of my house three weeks ago. She is trying to come back in the disguise that she doesn’t want her child to be only one, that it will make the child suffer in the future but I told her I cannot allow her to my house again. I love my little child and I cannot live with such a woman who is full of lies and pretense. I just have hatred for such kind of people. What do you think I should do?
This is pretty much straight forward.
Your perception of the woman (pre marriage) is different from reality (post marriage). Your wife turned out to be completely different from the person you married.
That's a tough call and so difficult to live with considering the fact she's now more like a liability. She's all shades of what you don't want in a woman.
We won't be having this conversation if she's adding value to your life so Oga, go ahead with whatever makes you happy. Shalom
Don't be deceived. Since they are now broke, they won't go after looted funds, they won't ask politicians to validate the source of their wealth, they won't cut down on frivolous spending, hell no will they make government more efficient.
What they have done is to simply pass the burden of any price increase to the citizens.
stupidity: It's seems Seun is paying someone to post fake stories on this section. Something is not right.
Seun this is my area of specialty o!!! Employ me abeg, instead of wasting away here!!
You're smart. I 've said the same thing before. Those coordinating this lame stories are so bad at it. You need to employ pros. At least, make it convincing small. Shior
And the Man goes on to shag other girls and eventually marry one.
Thinking someone can't live without you is the height of delusion. The weakest of women outlive their late husband by decades and nothing happened. Why on earth will anybody subject himself/herself to a life threatening procedure for validity?
dignity33: People are not tired off fake life all in the name of being famous, go to bombardier air jet in US and take picture is very much allowed. Nigeria and deceitful life is 5&6.
LagosBoi2: It is your birthday my darling wife, I have to make public this letter because you are the best thing that ever happened to my life and I can't keep silent anymore.
My friend and lover of 16 straight years, It is usual for husbands to appreciate their wives in the name of marriage but it is unusual to state reasons for the appreciation.
I think you don't just love, there should be genuine reasons to love, I will purge out my thoughts on the reasons you should be the most celebrated wife on earth.
As a young man, if all you ever wish for is to meet your partner a virgin, I personally NEVER wished for it but women who still keep their virginity against all odds for the right man should be specially celebrated in today's crazy world. Amazingly I can confidently say that I am the only man in her life for 16yrs until date, she is a completely faithful wife.
We have never had any issues over infidelity on her part during our courtship and marriage till date, I have been the one misbehaving through the years, growing up was crazy, I was the one exploring life and doing all I could but she submitted her life to me.
As a multi talented young lady, she submitted her career and life to me, believing in me despite all my mistakes, she is the only person that understands me even without an explanation to my human mistakes.
I can not easily forget her usual lines after giving her piece of advice, she will say "I do not see you as my husband, I see you as my own son, If my son should do this same thing you have just done, will i disown him?", "you are still young, you will outgrow these behaviours and be the best man for me"
I lost my biological mother 11 yrs ago but If I call you my mother, I have a genuine reason to do so because you stood by me in a way that only a mother can.
The 16yrs wasn't all rosy, about 9 of the 16 years was full sufferings and poverty, even when I lost hope in myself, you continued to have high hopes in me without any iota of doubt.
We were homeless on two occasions in our lives and then with 2 kids, you endured with me, staying with your mom while I stay with a friend, you even came to live with me in my friend's place.
Despite the humiliation, you refused to give up on me, you absolutely signed off your whole life to me. At a point you wore your best cloth to a company where I asked you to help me submit a proposal, a young lady tapped you to inform you that your dress is torn at the back.
If you have ever had to wear a cloth that is so used up and begins to split into two from the back, you will understand what this means, my wife came home and narrated the issue to me, she actually saw the dress before wearing it, she wore it because she had no better one to wear
I couldn't control my emotions, I began to cry like a baby, I can never forget what she told me that faithful day, she said "Baby, don't worry, the same me wearing torn cloths today will have enough to wear tomorrow, I will even be giving out because it will be excess" Behold 7yrs after her words came to pass, cloths and female accessories are the least of her worries.
Your wisdom is extraordinary even me your husband can not match, your heart so pure that you forgive the unthinkable. Your ways so pure that you find it difficult to tell a lie. You gave me a girl and 2 boys. 12yr, 6yr and 2yr respectively.
You stood by your promise to see me through to success, If you look for a woman who gives in everything into a relationship without blinking, that is my wife.
You politely correct me when I am wrong, you warmly advise me and leave me to make my final decisions, you respect me as a father not as a husband.
Your culinary skills are the best I have ever known, friends and family can testify to this, you are the best mother to our kids, your daughter calls you the best mom in the world, I also call you the best wife and mother in the world. They say no perfect human but you are near perfect. You are so beautiful that people who do not know you conclude that you must have several men in your life spending money on you to look younger and beautiful even after 3 kids.
I can go on and on because there is a lot to talk about you that is not open to others, you live a private life without desperation for anything in life, You are a woman of honor, dignity, value with undying strength to carry on and remain focus against all odds.
I promise to guide our union with my life, protect our family with my strength and celebrate you for the rest of your life.
Happy birthday my darling wife!
You are indeed the best!
Please help move this to FP today 26 Feb to celebrate a good woman's birthday.
Add: On your request, I have added pics.
Thank you.
To be very very honest, I had concluded while reading that ONLY an ugly woman will have all these qualities as tradeoff but at the end, I was disappointed in myself. Not only that you have a beautiful wife, but because she came with a lot of very rare qualities. You are indeed not lucky but Blessed. I'm so happy for you sir.
In addition, if she fine pass you, just go and do belated thanksgiving for the special Blessing you have from God.
Ehen again, brother, please do me a favor. Drop your pictures as well or rather your family picture so we can finally decide how to treat your Bleep-up if you ever hurt her again.

But she still had the time to make up and fix eye lashes.
See ehn, if anybody says you're the salt in their tea, all na format. Let the stream stop flowing and you'll realize you're nothing but pencil in the eye of the creator.
Las las, all man go die enter grave individually. Life goes on.
englishmart: If you were to share 100k between your parents, how much will each get? And why?
Me, I will give mom 70k and 30k to dad. Reason is, Mom needs a little more love for her enormous sacrifices. Woman has starved and done a lot of strenuous jobs to keep us going
Speak for yourself my friend.
My Dad & Mum did the same level of job on us based on their natural ability.
thalpy: I have a wife, and newly married. But my challenge is that she hardly get wets. She once told me that she was circumcised but I didn’t understand the disadvantage, thought it is same effect like a man.
We do have premarital sex (romance and pre-intimacy) for some time long enough to make her wet. But immediately we start having sex she dries up easily which makes it painful and somewhat not enjoyable to her after some time.
If she were to be a random girl, I won't care much. But she is my wife and I feel her pain. So I stop immediately and calm her down.
When we were dating we do fore play a lot but no sex until marriage now. I know you might say eating her p.... that works but saliva doesn't last and dries up. And am thinking what if she gives birth, giving a head might reduce too.
I know am not the only man in this trend. Many beautiful ladies out there are still in this shoe. I never knew cutting a girls clitoris has a big negative effect. Sex looks like war to them. Yes not the same to all but their sex life is not enjoyable to the fullest.
So I ask, to those that might have had this experience, is there anyway I can make her enjoy sex the more? Please not any rough discussion is accepted. I just don’t have that mind of seeing myself enjoy it alone when she isn’t. Now I have learnt my lesson, girl circumcision is bad. That's why most circumcised girls can stay without a bf, is not always self discipline is just lack of urge.
Please help. If you know anyone about it. And I browsed too i read they have difficulty too during child birth and they are prone to disease easily so how true is that? Just want to know all I need to know so precaution will be taken. Want to make her safe and happy. Thank you.
I'm beginning to doubt the authenticity of ALL these yeye stories on nairaland. If your intention is to drive traffic, you'll only succeed at making this site unattractive and irrelevant.
Like seriously? You mean we are the ones to tell you what to do with your circumcised wife? Ori e ope my friend
I suppose that's one of his job right there. Money laundering. Dem don dey get liver to associate publicly. It is well
Nigerian billionaires have no pedigree, no story, no footprint. You'll just wake up and boom, so so and so is now a billionaire and will start constituting nuisance in the name of give away. Poverty is everywhere and they are so taking full advantage of the economic situation.
Strongmercy123: Good evenin everyone. Pls I need a word of wisdom and advice from matured minds here. I’m 28 yrs I will be 29 in 2days.
I feel I’m about to make a life mistake. I have been dating my bf for 10yrs now, yes I was young and independent as at that time, the love was so sweet that we could do anything for each other. My bf left the country 5yrs ago and since then it has been long distance relationships, our communication was good.
He visited Nigeria December last yr and left the first week of January. He Begged me to wait for him again and I agreed. I’m currently pregnant and I’m scared to keep the baby, I spoke to him about it and he was happy.
Recently he is complaining of not having money and all. he has suddenly change with the way he talk to me and he doesn’t even have plans for me. He hardly calls and hardly pick my calls. I have tried to talk to him about his recent attitude and he will always end up calling me nag.
I’m thinking about going for abortion but I don’t know if it’s a great choice. He is 34yrs, pls I need advice.
ALL you have at the moment is YOU. Focus on your self development with passion and make sure you have a stable source of income.
DO NOT ABORT. With God on your side, another man will come your way if he chooses to remain an a**hole.
Daumandu: Can This Lead To The Downfall Of Someone?
I just moved in to a bigger city and a better and bigger apartment. I co-rented a flat with a middle aged man.
Now here is the problem, in my business at least in a week, I attend to nothing less than 20 clients but since one month I moved to this apartment I have not seen a single client.
Any day I do my digital marketing I am sure to see at least 10 to 20 enquires but since a month I moved to the apartment no body ever chatted me up for business.
Today I had to withdraw the last 5k in my account. The least amount I ever had in my account was 20k now I only have 500. I am someone that always enjoy the grace of God in my business but now its as if heaven has turned it's back against me. I am seriously thinking of leaving the apartment.
Any Advice?
Living with the other Man might, (emphasis on MIGHT) just be the reason for your relative business success. In situations like this, all you need is to reflect on your journey so far. Before and after sharing an apartment.
Ok, were you making progress with your business before deciding to share an apartment with someone?
What was it like when you were under the safe roof with the man?
johnmattew: lekki and ajah residents are sitting on gun powder....20 years ago,lekki and ajah weren't existing....both areas won't exist in 20 years time
You're so correct.
They need to pay a visit to MEGAMOUND ESTATE. The one somewhere between Chevron and VGC. I can't remember specifically but i recollect all of us that went visiting a family friend was amazed at how the developer has nearly converged the large body of water separating the estate and the other side. In like 10years time, flood will be a major problem in that environment and the greedy developer i hear, does not even live in that estate.
I'm surprised 80% of comments on here is in support of Sid.
What if Sid was cheating with his brokeness? What if Sid slept with her friend or maid? What if Sid keeps late night? What if Sid grew to be entitled? What if Sid was taking her for granted? What if Sid was not showing the desire to up his game? What if Sid all together became a different person? The kind of person she cannot tolerate. We all have tolerance limit remember?
Take a good look at her press release, that woman is bitter yet chose to respect Sid and their union by not dragging him.
BTW, if we're to fully comply with what the Bible says, a woman is free to divorce the moment a man becomes broke then adds irresponsibility to it. Emphasis on "IRRESPONSIBILITY ".
A woman is not wired to understand you don't have money indefinitely. You can't eat your cake and have it. NO MONEY, NO - HEAD OF FAMILY TITLE.
Now, a man can drop 5h and the woman 1k, that's fine. At least, he dropped something. You can't be lifeless and claiming dance floor at the same time. Kolewerk. Let's be honest.
African Men, we are so entitled. Culture is not helping either.
