Are you serious?

be careful . You should know people would want to take advantage of you in this situation . Not everyone pretending to offer help actually wants to help. If you are new on this platform, go through the post of those offering you help to have an idea of what they are like . Best wishes

Hello @optm thanks for all you’ve been doing.

I’m trying to get new lenses but the quote my optician is giving me is way too high.

How much can I realistically get new lenses for my prescription below in Lagos:
OD: -9.00, -1.00 x 120
OS: -8.00, -1.25 x 20

Looking to make it ultrathin with anti reflex.

Thank you.

ultra thin lenses are quite expensive ;moreso when the come with anti reflective coating. I can't give an exact price but should cost you btwn 60 to 90k in most clinics

These agberos are the major cause of the hike in cost of transportation in Lagos. They are a menance. The govt really should address this issue. They have legalized extortion .

DanWord:
Please sir. Concerning uniben transcript which institution did you send your transcript that was rejected by uniben. I use my brother company I'm getting a feeling they will not send it there. And also how can I get a soft copy to my mail like you did incase they refuse to send it. Because my transcript has been in the office of the deputy registrar for a week now. No posting. Please sir I'm in fire need of it.

good day . I think you are quoting the wrong person. I 'm lost as regards what you are talking about. I wish i could furnish you with the information you are requesting. i am sorry

Nobody holy, if you have the chance to make millions of dollars from hushpuppy regardless of who you are won't you take the opportunity? I know most people condemning him will do so without a second blink.

We're all hypocrites.

Crime and corruption are not good but let's look at what he did from a personal angle for us to understand that it's not easy not to roll with a popular big boy like hushpuppy when everyone was familiarizing with them and such chance came up for him.

I'm not supporting crime and corruption, all I'm saying is let him do the time if found guilty of what he's is indicted for but let's put ourselves in his shoes for a second to understand the mouth watery offers he got from hushpuppy that put him into the mess and let us not be quick to criticize him because most of us could have taken such offers.

In as much as we must let justice prevail in our society to cob such bribery and corruption, we must also give a fair hearing to culprits.

Criminal rehabilitation and justice I stand.

It's isn't easy for him.

bro , what you wrote here is rubbish. There's what they call contentment and integrity . There's no excuse you ll want to give for his actions. Abba wasn't poor , infact there are people poor that have displayed acts of integrity when they had the opportunity to cash out via a wrong means. Taxi drivers have returned huge sums of money and valuables, i think there was a story one time about a cleaner at the airport that returned huge sum of money she found in the course of her doing her duty . It is expected that one with a good conscience would turn down such offers especially when you know another person is being deliberately hurt and you are serving out injustice rather than justice that your job demands of you. It breaks my heart seeing nigerians think this way. Little wonder Nigeria can't get it right as majority see wickedness and injustice as a normal thing .

Adakintroy:
Who is responsible for managing those factors in america?

Aside, What makes you think you are not part of the factors as a micro unite of analyse contributing negatively to the Nigerian functions.

the effect of the pandemic no doubt is the cause for theirs but ours isn't . The bad govt is more than 90% responsible for the Nigerian situation

Adakintroy:
If things will normalize in the u.s like you point out. It will definitely normalize in Nigerian. You cannot act that whatever indices you use as measurement for American inflation are not all that accurate. The most accurate is the covid which was globbal phenomenon. Prior to the American was in the green. In every economy there are good times and they are bad summarily Some bad are sustained over a long stretch so are some good. You seem to be more assuredly and over optimistic over the American economy situations. What make you so sure it will normalize after a few short while. If you believe it will then best believe Nigerian economy as well will normalize all things considered.

You make all sought soughts of argument why Nigeria will implode and with good reasons. But never the west. What makes you think their civilization is not on the verge.

factor(s) responsible for the inflation in the American economy is different from that of Nigeria hence you can see the difference in percentage increase . The nigerian situation is majorly due to a failed government

horlabiyi:
Our forefathers didn’t commit suicide when they stole their resources.

you are just a thief . Who told you the fore fathers of your victims partook in stealing your resources ?You are no different from the thief out there that would blame the devil when caught. The funny thing is when you ll be caught, you wouldn't tell the law enforcement that you started scam because you were on a revenge mission but you'll rather blame either the devil or the economic hardship and please answer me, how are your victims responsible for your predicaments?

Stupid thieves giving the lame excuse of what they did to your ancestors. Who told you your ancestor was among those sold into slavery? You would probably not be a nigerian if your ancestor was sold . Evil fraudulent people . May the recompense for your evil acts come to you guys quickly

Admin Please put this on front page so those taking to scam see the effect of their atrocities

[quote author= post=103994295]Twitter made a statement in which they said they don't know President Buhari and which country he runs.

When you're blinded by hate and self imposed narrow mindedness, you will applaud someone who is clearly insulting you.
Most Nigerians who are sympathetic with Twitter today don't know how much of an insult this comment is to even them.
They see Buhari as the target here but there are two elements in this insult.
Twitter says they don't know President Buhari.
But they didn't stop there.
They also added that they don't know the country he is leading. In other words they don't know Nigeria.

Twitter is brazenly saying they don't know Africas most populous nation and the country with the highest concentration of black people in the world. Twitter is brazenly saying they don't know a country where over 11 billion dollars of their revenue comes from with over 40 million subscribers.


Some years ago Pastor Chris Oyakhilome chose to use twitter to communicate some prayer information to Christ Embassy members worldwide.
Within few weeks Pastor Chris broke the records of having the most amount of followers within such a short period.

In their arrogance, Twitter called Pastor Chris' twitter account to question and described the followership as bogus.

Simply put, Twitter believed that nobody from a place like Nigeria had enough clout to garner such followership within such a short time - a feat that no Hollywood star was able to achieve -.

Pastor Chris wasn't prepared for their drama, he pulled out of twitter and challenged his church tech people to design a platform that the church can use. That's what gave birth to Yookos.

Today Yookos is a formidable competitor with Twitter so much so that ex President Barack Obama acknowledged the giant strides made by the platform within such a short time after it was launched.

Eventually twitter confirmed Pastor Chris' account and "apologized" but it was too late.
Pastor Chris had moved his huge followership into Yookos.

Several years later Twitter is saying that they don't know the country that the same Pastor Chris comes from.
That's arrogance taken too far.

Any Nigerian who tolerates this insult is just a self hating sychophant.

Someone says you and your country don't matter and you're jubilating.
Is that not a serious sickness?

********************************************

On a lighter note,
*We heard someone telling his landlord that his rent money for the year is trapped in his Twitter account*

*The landlord too is now abusing Buhari

Dem [/b] : AKA [b]DA truth in da building!

Truth is not bitter, just that some people are bitter to the truth.

We Rise![/quote]the insults the political leaders in nigeria give to the people are way worse than that given by twitter but you put up posts to defend these politicians and their interests. I know you are actually doing what you do for personal and selfish interest but you are trying to be subtle about it

Phiheywhy1:
There is no redness, the pus come little little in the day and stay at the corner of the eye but stick together the eyelashes after sleep by the morning.

an antibiotic ointment or drop would serve but meet your eye doc to recommend one suitable for your baby

Phiheywhy1:
Gud mrn Doc,
My 3 months old baby use to rub hand in his eyes, people discouraged me from seeing a pharmacist, sayings it is toothing symptoms. Now we are seeing pus discharge, the dry pus even stick eyes together after sleep. The eyes shows no other symptoms apart from the pus. What can be done to stop the pus? This morning we use warm water to clear the eyes.
Also, can we use salt and water to clean the eyes??

good morning. The eye is probably infected? Any redness? Is the pus only in the mornings ?

Terose:
They didn't verify mine that I'm sure about cos I was following the WES step daily as it was updated. When it gets to verification stage you'll normally receive an email that the process has been paused for your school to verify and that takes a really long time for a school like Uniben, everyone I know in Uniben spent at least a month for this many spent more and most even had to beg someone to be checking cos they'll always say they haven't seen any email. It's usually the most annoying step in the whole process.

oh i see

Terose:
I said this because I have someone in Uniben who's in the transcript office and he said till date they still ask for the verification stuff hence he was even surprised when I told him I wasn't asked and my process was short and fast.

i do not think the verification process takes long. the delays or swiftness might be due to the quantity of documents that needs to be verified at that time

Terose:
Great! What faculty are you? It seems Wes now trusts some faculties in Uniben and don't stress them.

what makes you think so? I really doubt this

Terose:
You know after wes receives your transcript, normally for Nigerian schools they will send a verification request back to university via an email for which your university will then respond verifying that yes the transcripts was sent by them. But in my case, I don't go through that. As soon as Wes let me know they've received my documents before two weeks they were through with everything and gave me my report. So mine was super fast and amazing.

oh i see. I wasn't notified about the verification process. I only got the mail they had received my documents from school and it took about 2 to 3days to get it done by WES

Reminds me a story my neighbour shared on how he was accused of rape and was invited to the station. He said if he had known that it was a rape accusation, before reaching the station, he would have committed suicide. Some persons can be accused wrongly and the shame and stigma might be unbearable. I just hope it isnt a case of false accusation

busorlahmii:
Good evening house. Please can anyone suggest a good eye clinic for me in Abuja. My sister has been having floaters in her eyes and it keeps getting worse and affecting her vision. Thanks

go online and search for clinics in your area . You should try to visit an eye clinic ASAP cos floaters sometimes could be associated with very serious eye issue that requires an emergency intervention

Possibly an atopic dermatitis. Meet a dermatologist

LagosInter:
This serap is just useless.


They go to court for everything and protest about everything yet no results achieved.

at least they are attempting to do something. What have you done?

This is just to show how self serving nigerian political office holders are. The country relies on borrowing to finance its budget but the never for a moment considered cutting down on their allowances and salaries and it annoys me when i see many persons protecting the intrests of these politicians even at the detriment of their wellbeing

Sponsored group. People selling their tomorrow for little crumbs today. It's a shame

He's most likely having a learning disability called dyslexia. Go read more on it and see support communities your friend can benefit from

Antiochus:
Wow.. Thank God o. I have been so scared.

Thanks sir. God bless you richly.

Amen . you too

Terose:
Mine was even shorter and I was surprised I wasn't even asked the verification stuff people go through.

what verification stuff? I cannot relate though

Antiochus:
I did the CVF test yesterday. Please help me compare with the last year own. The first two was the last year's CVF test while the last two was yesterday's own.

there's actually no significant change. So it's quite stable

They cannot fix our educational system but use the nation's resources to give themselves and their families the good life they deny others from enjoying. The most annoying thing is when i see impoverished Nigerians protect the interests of these people. I' ll be like, are these people hypnotised or are they just mentally slow? I so desire living in a sane country with a working system and i pray God helps me get it

misterfynest:
@optm

I tried messaging you, can you follow back so i can send you a dm?

Thanks.

i have replied your mail

Antiochus:
My IOP measured 22 three months ago.
It measured 22 again today so the doctor changed my eye drop from Betaxolol to DuoSopt. But this DuoSopt is expensive. Next week is another CVF test after the one I did last year June.

Cc: optm

that's fine. Would be good so as to see if there's any change when compared with the previous. You could discuss the burden of cost with your Dr so as he or she is aware and see how to work out a plan since you'll have to continually be on anti glaucoma meds; so that cost doesn't prevent you from continuing on your meds
