Please help,
I'm fed up, I'm having problem sleeping.
Right from my childhood days, sleeping in the aftnoon had always been impossible, not even a siesta.
At nights, its always after lying-in for about 1:15m to 1:30m before finally sleeping off and if i should get up to urinate before daybreak, my eyes will become clear; no sleep again no matter how hard i try.
Trams, Coddein, Valium5, Cenpain night, just mention it does not make me sleep, it only makes me high or intoxicate me.
Although i always feel sleepy whenever am depressed, bored, alone or in a cool breezy environment, the momment i lie down or get ready to sleep then the urge is gone.
what could be my problem.
what can i do to get over it.

U may have giraffe DNA.

Rest in perfect peace David.

50 oga at the top.

The time of "synchro barber".lol

True,

But methinks that their greatest mistake was to have allowed Putin to come to power. they Didn't realize what badass Nigga that gee is. Now they have only themselves to blame

As at the time President Putin came to power as the president and the head of the Russian govt.,The country was really going down faster because of corruption at the earliest level.Russia was free for all for the gangsters and petty thieves.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union and during the time of Yeltsin,it was the most beginning of emigration of Russians to anywhere goes.Just to get out not poverty because of inept govt of Yeltsin and so many corrupt Russian-Jews at powerful placed in the society.
Hence,Russia needed an experienced patriot Russian that can get Russia back on her feet as one of the world's superpower.
And honestly,henceforth President VLADIMIROVICH VLADIMIR PUTIN took over Russian presidency,Russia has become great again.
So as at the time Putin got to power,the West has no choice than to accept him.
It was Russian people that got Putin in . However,his emergence and his system of govt and how he deals with things caught the corrupt power in Russia and international unaware.
They call him Mr.Unpredictable.

Eastern governors still constructing roads with open drainages I'm this era.

Same in Abuja bro.I saw it I said what the f uc k

RIP to the dead.My they find peace with their creator.May God have mercy on them.Amin.


PS..truth be told the driver killed himself and the passengers.Looking at the carcass of the car,the driver must be really on a very high speed I say 150+km/h on a very bad Nigerian road.
I equally blame our inept government officials and current politicians and businessmen for this unfortunate ghastly accident.
Had it been that the money meant to build these roads hasn't been stolen,we could have had nice roads and working regulations and rule of law those could have prevented this and many other accidents on our roads.

RIP.

Why not na?!

Aren't you women asking for gender equality?

If my wife can live in my house,I should be able to live in hers with her understanding and humility,God forbid.

I shall be the head and not the tail.

Explorers:
You cannot work in Antarctica unless you have had your wisdom teeth and appendix removed.



The requirement dates from the 1950s, when an Australian Antarctic doctor developed appendicitis on an expedition on the antarctic and required a very challenging evacuation back to Australia(nearest civilization), he became stranded and he was forced to remove his own appendix as he was the only doctor on the team. Most times they have only one or no doctor in Antarctica stations, giving no room for surgeries/extractions.

Thought he was a Russian doctor.#explorers

Etymology is fun! It’s especially fun to learn about the quaint old-fashioned practices that gave rise to some of the words we use. Stereotype comes from printing, hard-up comes from sailing, pipe dream comes from opium dens.

Cultural practices change, technology changes, but words stick around—and not just in some long ago, far away place. It’s happening all around us as we speak, a hard truth that mental_floss editor-in-chief Jason recently had to face up to.


That’s right. Kids these days don’t know where hang up comes from, and those of us who remember the pre-cell phone era are already receding into the mysterious, etymological past. Here are 15 etymologies to answer the questions of future English speakers. Because the future is already here.

1. WHY DO WE "HANG UP" A PHONE?
Phones used to have two parts to them, a base and a receiver. In order to end a call, the receiver had to be placed or "hung" on the base.

2. WHY DO WE "DIAL" A PHONE?
To call someone on an old phone, you had to stick your finger in a rotating dial at number positions that would turn the dial for various lengths of time when released. You had to do the entire number every time.


3. WHY DOES A PHONE OR ALARM CLOCK "RING"?
Now phones and alarm clocks can make any kind of sound to catch your attention, but a long time ago, phones and alarm clocks had little bells inside them for this purpose.

4. WHY DO CASHIERS "RING UP" A PURCHASE?
Cash registers also used to have little bells in them. Cashiers would enter the price of each item on a set of mechanical levers, when they pressed the button to get the total, the total price would pop up in a window and the bell would ring.

5. WHY DO WE "ROLL" A WINDOW UP OR DOWN?
Cars used to have hand cranks in the doors that moved the windows up or down when turned. To open or close a window, you had to roll the crank around a few times.

6. WHERE DOES "SOUNDS LIKE A BROKEN RECORD" COME FROM?
Music used to be played on grooved discs, called records. When these discs were scratched or otherwise damaged, it would cause the same sound to be played over and over again. So to sound like a broken record was to repeat the same thing over and over.



7. WHAT IS THE ORIGIN OF "LUGGAGE"?
People used to travel with big, heavy bags that had no wheels or collapsible handles. They had to "lug" these bags around from place to place.

8. WHY DO WE DESCRIBE HEALTH FOOD PLACES AS "GRANOLA"?
I know! Granola is full of gluten and sugar! But decades ago, granola was considered a healthy alternative to eggs, pancakes, and bacon, which were then considered unhealthy.

9. WHY DO WE "TURN" A DEVICE ON OR OFF?
Many devices used to require the user to turn a handle or knob in order to release the flow of an energy producing substance like gas, steam, or electricity. To stop the flow the knob would be turned back the other way and the device would cease operating.

10. WHY DO WE CALL IT A MESSAGE "BOARD"?
Before the internet, when people wanted to make an announcement or share information they would put it on a piece of paper and attach it to a board mounted in a public location where many people would see it.



11. WHY DO WE CALL SOME SHOWS "REALITY" TV?
Even though these shows do not actually show reality, at the time they first appeared, they were, in comparison, much less scripted and controlled than other shows, so they seemed somehow closer to the world as the way it was.

12. WHAT IS "CLOCKWISE"?
Clocks used to be a circular array of numbers, with pointers mounted on a controller in the center that moved around the circle over the course of the day. The direction that the pointers moved, beginning towards the right at the top of the circle, was referred to as clockwise.

13. WHY DO WE SAY "ON LINE" FOR COMPUTER THINGS?
In the early days of computing, when one machine needed to communicate with another, they had to be attached with a physical cord or "line." Processes that could be completed without this communication were "off line."

14. WHY DO WE SAY "REWIND" FOR A DO-OVER?
Video and audio used to be on strips of tape that moved across a reader in order to be played. A gear on one side would wind the tape, pulling across it the reader from a wheel on the other side. When you wanted to re-play a section you had just heard or seen, or go back to the beginning, you had to re-wind the tape in the other direction.



15. WHAT DOES "CC" MEAN ON AN EMAIL?
When you cc someone, you send them a copy of your message. It comes from carbon copy, an old method of creating copies of paper documents by transferring lines via carbon paper.

How can we wish a man that spoilt our country a happy birthday??

There are witches and wizards.Only be say 9ja own too wicked.

Nothing will ever change in Nigeria,if there is still no electricity to run the production of wetin u wan start to dey produce......If Buhari can just focus and throw his power behind making sure there is enough power generation and let's see how Nigeria will be transformed in a twinkle of an eye.

It's not really a vendetta but it boils down to how our great Nigeria has been raped continuously since Buhari/Idiagbon regime was overthrown and our economy and pride as giant of Africa was sold off.

May God punish IBB,MKO Abiola and will never spare OBJ in His wrath as they make people suffer in Nigeria.

Let the trial begins.

OBAGADAFFI:
Duh, Mr new Yoruba,

Tinubu has was arraigned and freed from during GEJ regime.

Abi no be 9ja corrupt legal system again??

Labee:
Ha, oga run for your dear life o. It sound like you are trying to bring these things in commercial quantities (although you stated personal use). You go cry if you try am o

It's solely for my own use....as I want to start building a house and will like to complete the 1st one.

But I don't really trust the meterials in 9ja that's y I dey consider to buy from Europe.I mean everything that ll be needed....except iron materials,roofing and cement that are made in Nigeria.

Labee:
Oga no scare the guy like that nah (per the bolded above). Daily demurrage for terminal TICT 2nd or even Grimaldi na 8,800 naira per day for the first period. He appears to be in the last period. Hence his demurrage na N12,600 per day. You forgot to mention, releasing officer money. DC Money, CIU money, OC Gate money, even the agencies money (Police/anti bomb, SS, NDLEA, ), even valuation get money. This container should cost him N1,550,000 million to clear (assuming it is loaded with goods. However, if the container only contain just the 3 cars, then he should be paying N1,400,000 million naira. Any regulatory body can easily place alert on the system. For instance, the one that I cleared in December had an alert initiated by port CID. They claimed that they got information from New York that I had furniture in my container. I just laughed and gave them 10,000 (ten thousand naira), and they released the alert immediately

Is it illegal to import furniture into Nigeria?
I'M planing to import house building materials,furniture and other household items.I would like to know if it's legal to import all these things for personal use.

A bottle of beer sells for N180 at a local joint (N500 upwards in clubs and hotels). If U drink an average of five bottles a day @ N180 that makes it 35 bottles a week. In a year dat makes it 1820 bottles amounting to N327,600
Just imagine folks drinking for 30yrs.. that'll amount to N9.8million.
