Well... this answers your question, I guess

Hello Nairalanders 👋

I'm currently working on Preppass a new Android app designed to help Nigerian graduates and job seekers prepare for Graduate Trainee, Management Trainee and other recruitment aptitude tests.


The idea is simple:

Instead of searching through WhatsApp groups, Telegram channels and scattered PDFs whenever you have an assessment coming up, **Preppass brings past questions and practice materials together in one place.**

And yes — the past questions are FREE. 🎯

I'm currently running a closed test before making the app publicly available on Google Play.

🔍 I NEED TESTERS

I'm looking for at least 20 serious testers who are willing to:

✅ Have a Google Play Store account
✅ Join the Preppass closed testing programme
✅ Install and use the app
✅ Keep testing it for 14 consecutive days
✅ Give honest feedback about the app, questions, interface, bugs, features, etc.

You don't need to be a developer or tech expert.

In fact, graduates, final-year students, job seekers and anyone currently preparing for Graduate/Management Trainee assessments are especially welcome.

🎁 WHAT DO YOU GET?

You get FREE access to Preppass and its collection of past questions** while helping me improve the app before its official launch.

Your feedback can help determine what gets fixed, improved and added before thousands of other Nigerian job seekers start using it.

📱 HOW TO JOIN

If you're interested, simply drop your Gmail address in the comments.

I'll send you the instructions/link to join the closed test.

Important: You need access to the Google Play Store on an Android device.

I'm looking for people who will genuinely test the app for the full 14 days rather than simply joining and disappearing.

If you're preparing for companies like banks, FMCGs, consulting firms, oil & gas companies, telecoms, etc., this could also be useful for you.

Interested?

Drop your Gmail address below and I'll add you to the testing group.

Thank you! 🙏

I just laughed.. . You think Banks are concerned about turnover when it comes to loans.. you think you have experience more than the Op.. Take this from me, unless you are borrowing to buy a traceable physical asset, that's when banks will lower their guards.
As long as you are borrowing cash, turnover means nothing. They will demand for a collateral.

I worked as a relationship officer in a Tier 1 commercial bank for 2 years before resigning. I have worked on facilities for a number of customers, and for the most part, the only collateral required is the business owner's Personal Guarantee. No one gives a damn about your collateral... well, except if you're providing cash collateral or shares, maybe. Recovering/Liquidating collateral is hard and strenuous work. A bank would prefer a customer who can pay his/her loans on time and as and when due. Their main focus is the customer's turnover, cash flow, and credit reports.

I have advised the op the best i can. I wish him all the best, and hope his business grows.

Cheers.

FX:
Good day guys.

Which banks gives good loans to company accounts that have good monthly and yearly turnover. I'm tired of Wema bank. I need to switch bank ASAP. I can't be doing more than 100m in yearly turnover without good SME and corporate loans support.

I would like to know:
1. Which banks are currently business-friendly for companies with steady turnover
2. Your experience with their loan products and processing time
3. Requirements for company accounts

Please share only from experience. I’m looking to make an informed decision before moving.
Thanks

1) FCMB, Stanbic, Access are banks you could look at.
2) It depends on the amount and type of loan you need. Processing time can range from 3 days to a month. You need to have a sit-down with your account officer on this.
4) Basic company documentation; CAC docs, Your ID Card (preferably id cards that come with your signature - like Driver's license and International Passport). The other documents requiring your review and signature will be provided by the bank.

finoki:
Turnover means nothing when it comes to loans. You need a Collateral if you want the attention of any commercial bank... because they need to hold unto something to protect them since you are looking for big bucks..
I'm guessing you want funds in the range of 7 digits..upward

Your best bet are the finttech crew, Opay n co. But their interests rates are high, it's not advisable. Debts should be a last resort..

You don't need a collateral to get a loan. Infact, most bank loans rely only on Personal Guarantees as collateral. Turnover means a lot when it comes to loans. For most businesses, it is the only evidence that shows that a business is a healthy, going concern.

This is nice to hear for a change.

Let's go Team Naija!!!

Kalatium:
The story is not really about shawarma.

The shawarma is simply the evidence. The real issue is what it revealed.

For four years, one person had quietly made it a habit to think of two people every time he bought food. He never saw generosity as a transaction. He never calculated whether he would get the same treatment in return. He simply shared because he cared.

Then one difficult week arrived. This is not a year, not even a month o, just a week and it revealed a lot about her.

When she bought food only for herself, turned her back, and ate alone, what hurt was not the shawarma. It was the realization that the spirit of the relationship might not have been as mutual as he believed. In a single moment, he discovered that what he saw as "us" may have been viewed as "you and me" all along.

This is why people are reacting so strongly to the story.

Most people are not imagining themselves missing a shawarma. They are imagining all the sacrifices they have made for others, only to discover that the same energy disappears the moment circumstances change.

One of the hardest lessons in life is realizing that some people appreciate your effort without ever intending to match it. They enjoy your generosity, your kindness, your loyalty, your support, and your consistency, but they never see those things as responsibilities they should reciprocate. To them, receiving becomes normal while giving remains optional.

The truth is that relationships are not built during seasons of abundance. Almost anyone can be loving when everything is going well. Character reveals itself when sacrifice becomes necessary, when convenience disappears, and when somebody must choose between their own comfort and showing up for another person.

A relationship does not become one sided overnight. It usually happens gradually, through hundreds of small moments that seem insignificant on their own. One person keeps giving. The other keeps receiving. One person keeps understanding. The other keeps expecting understanding. One person keeps making adjustments. The other keeps benefiting from them.

Eventually, a moment arrives that exposes the imbalance.

The shawarma was simply that moment.

Men can learn something from this. Consistency is admirable, but generosity should not blind you to reality. The goal is not to find someone who enjoys what you provide. The goal is to find someone who values you enough to stand beside you when you have little or nothing to provide.

Women can learn something from it too. The strongest relationships are not built on what someone can do for you. They are built on reciprocity, consideration, and the willingness to show up when circumstances are less than ideal. Sometimes the smallest gestures communicate the deepest loyalty.

At the end of the day, everybody wants to feel chosen, appreciated, and valued. Nobody wants to discover that their importance in a relationship was tied primarily to what they could offer.

The saddest relationships are not the ones where love ends.

They are the ones where one person eventually realizes they were investing in a partnership while the other was simply enjoying the benefits.

What do you think? Was this story really about shawarma, or was it about something much deeper?

Easy with the AI bro

escortafrik:
I’m a lady in my mid-30s and life was going very well for me except for one thing everybody except me seemed obsessed with - marriage.

I have a good career, I’m financially stable, respected in my field, and I genuinely loved the life I built for myself. But every family gathering, every wedding, every phone call from relatives somehow turned into:

“So when are you getting married?” You’re not getting younger oo

Eventually, I met someone through mutual friends.

He was unemployed at the time, but that did not bother me much because he was intelligent, kind, calm, and surprisingly very knowledgeable in the same profession as me.

We connected deeply and for the first time in a long while, I felt like I had found the ‘one’

As our relationship became serious, I started helping him professionally too. I helped him restructure his CV, prepared him for interviews, connected him to opportunities, and eventually introduced him to my organisation when there was an opening.

Thankfully, he got the job.

I was genuinely happy for him because I knew how difficult things had been for him financially before then. And after he got the job, things became even sweeter between us.

And some month after he proposed to me ! my joy became complete! My family was overjoyed.

Then, just as our wedding plans were moving forward smoothly, the company we worked introduced a new policy stating that married couples could no longer work in the organisation together. Once two employees got married, one person would have to resign.

That was when the real problem started.

I assumed we would sit down and discuss it logically.

I have spent years building my career there.
I’m more senior.
I currently earn more.
And if we’re being realistic, my position is more stable at the moment.

But my fiancé shocked me.

He told me I should be the one to resign because:

“I’m the man.”

Initially I didn’t take him seriously but as the wedding date drew closer, he kept pressuring me to resign !

I then reminded him that I was already established before he came into the company. I was the one who helped him get the opportunity in the first place. If anyone should logically stay, shouldn’t it be the person whose career was already firmly built there?

But he said it would be embarrassing for him as a man if he was the one leaving while his wife continued working there, that I could do something else like supermarket business.

Imagine !

Since then, everything has changed.

Wedding plans have paused.
We now fight everyday
Even his family are supporting him, telling me to resign !
my heart is broken.

Not just because of the job itself, but because I genuinely believed I was building a life with someone who saw me as an equal partner.

Well I have concluded that I won’t resign and I will also make sure he is sacked. No one should call me wicked because he is very wicked for wanting to do this to me.



https://community.escortafrik.com/d/198-i-helped-my-fiance-get-a-job-in-my-company-now-he-wants-me-to-resign

The most important decision here is the one you owe yourself: look hard at the man, not just the job, before you tie your life to either.
Keep the fire. Just point it at the right target: your own freedom, not his ruin.

And here I was, thinking it was Ambode

justt2006:
Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a new phone and I'd love some recommendations. Here are my must-haves:

- Dual SIM with 5G network capability (or at least 4G)
- Great camera performance in low light
- Minimum 5000mAh battery life
- At least 6GB RAM (8GB or more would be awesome)
- Minimum 128GB ROM
- Durable screen that won't break easily
- Processor that's fast and responsive although I'm not a gamer)
- Price: not more than ₦500k (preferably around ₦350k)
- New, original devices only (I'm not a fan of IPhone or UK used phones, please do not suggest them). I'm currently using a Samsung phone, but open to other reliable brands.

Can anyone suggest some great options that fit these requirements?

Tecno spark 10 5G. I bought mine at 150k and it comes with 8gb ram, 256gb rom, and 5G connectivity.

Been using it for 2 years now, and no regrets.

If I fart inside a room, especially in the evening, everybody will run away. In fact, stay outside for a few minutes before you come inside again.


I mostly pity my girlfriend because she's is the one enduring it. Chai, that girl don suffer for my hand.

The other day, i was on a date with a girl and it came. I couldnt control so i had to release and the whole place was smelling so bad. She knew i was the one and i had to apologize. Since after that day, that girl is not picking my calls again. Could that be the issue?

Abeg, could something be wrong inside me that makes my fart smell so bad? Like a rotten dead body. I'm serious. That is how bad it's.

What can I do to end this?

The extremely foul odor of your flatulence is a cause for concern and may be impacting your relationships. Let's explore potential causes and solutions.

1. Dietary Factors: The foods you consume significantly influence the smell of your gas . High-fiber foods, beans, and certain vegetables can contribute to pungent odors . Sulfur-containing foods are particularly notorious for producing a rotten-egg smell due to the release of sulfur-containing gases by bacteria in your large intestine . Consider keeping a food diary to identify potential triggers.

2. Gut Microbiome Imbalance: The bacteria in your gut play a crucial role in digestion and gas production . An imbalance in your gut microbiome can lead to the production of more odorous gases. This imbalance could be due to various factors, including diet, stress, and medication.

3. Underlying Medical Conditions: While less common, extremely foul-smelling gas could indicate an underlying medical condition affecting your digestive system. Conditions like malabsorption syndromes, celiac disease, or inflammatory bowel disease can alter digestion and produce unusually smelly gas.

4. Constipation: Constipation can cause your stool to sit in your intestines longer, leading to increased bacterial fermentation and more potent-smelling gas .

What You Can Do:

1. Dietary Changes: Experiment with eliminating potential culprits from your diet, such as high-sulfur foods (like cruciferous vegetables, eggs, and red meat), beans, and high-fiber foods, temporarily to see if this reduces the odor. Then, reintroduce them one at a time to determine which foods are causing the problem . Focus on easily digestible foods for a while.

2. Probiotics and Prebiotics: These can help rebalance your gut microbiome . Probiotics introduce beneficial bacteria, while prebiotics feed existing beneficial bacteria.

3. Increase Water Intake: Staying well-hydrated can help prevent constipation .

4. Lifestyle Changes: Managing stress through relaxation techniques can also positively impact your gut health.

5. Medical Consultation: If dietary changes and lifestyle modifications don't improve the situation, it is crucial to consult a gastroenterologist. They can perform tests to rule out any underlying medical conditions . The extreme odor you describe warrants a professional evaluation.


In conclusion, while dietary changes and lifestyle adjustments are often the first steps in addressing smelly flatulence, persistent or unusually pungent gas warrants a visit to your doctor to rule out any underlying health issues. Addressing the root cause is essential for both your health and your relationships.

Welcome to Arsenal, Trossard. Manutd, we dey come for una.

Even on Nairaland, people with large following are paid to twist the narrative on this platform. Some specifically open new accounts to spread disinformation. This is an election to determine the future of our dear country. Sadly, not everyone has this same idea.

Thanks. I pray you find urs too

Amen bro. Amen.

Best of luck guys. I applied but was not shortlisted. Moving on to better things.�

NewSoul:
So I collected my PVC (Permanent voters card) a week ago. I registered July last year online and went to complete registration and have them take my biometrics on November 10 2021.

The process was very easy and timely as there were just two people at the INEC centre who also came for PVC collection. I wrote my name, number and address on separate papers and signed both. The INEC official took a passport photograph of me (straight face and smiling) to make sure it matches with the previously submitted photos when I registered (They do not want people collecting for others by proxy) and I was handed my PVC. The process didn't take up to 5 minutes.

NOTE: If you registered between last year and January of this year your PVC is ready for pick up at your centre. Just go with the small paper given to you at the point of registration. DON'T WAIT FOR LAST MINUTE RUSH

God bless you as you get your PVC and elect credible leaders that will move the Nation forward.

What of if you no longer have the small paper?
