I don't know why I never had sympathy for people like this guy. Spending your money on a woman is your choice, she didn't force you. Probably you were trying to impress her and price her away from other guys. You can choose to help a partner in need if you have the means, and in that case, you don't have to go above your budget to impress her, you should only spend the amount you can afford to lose if the event turned out like this one.

Na that "notification of degree" paper people are carrying about, who get time for certificate

This is another indication of a failed government. If there are available jobs provided for the youth, government can easily compel them to get their certificate in order to secure the job. But nada

I dont think its marriage that made her look old. Stress and poverty did

Nigerian marriages are a trainload of stresses, I agree.

The institution of marriage is the number one thing the devil is against ...and he fights it with all its got... the more people loose hope in marriage the happier the devil is

How does not being married make devil happier, can you shed more light on this? I know I often find it difficult to comprehend you religion folks, but maybe I can get some understanding with you

Get your facts right. China has a COMPULSORY 9 year education programme.

Education is very important. Many of the inventions and quality of life you enjoy wouldn't be possible without knowledge gotten from education.

Does that also explain the reason why most of the investors we have today were school dropouts?

Is marriage a must or an achievement in life? Nigerians should get beyond this age-old mentality. If you know what some married people are going through, you will not envy them. One thing I notice in Nigeria today is, people get quickly older once they get married. There's this lady we spent childhood together, if you see her today and we are walking together on the street, you will think she is my mother, I'm even older than her by a year.

Acidosis:
While you're focusing on third class without proof, are you also aware that she own a shoe business "shoes by flora"?? Her business received more than 10,000 orders in a short while.

She achieved all that while you, Charly, was cross-dressing and encouraging the ga.y child. Ediot!

Nengi's achievements can be used anywhere in the world to encourage the girl child. She's a child without a father and mother yet she didn't let that stop her from achieving her goals.

And let's not forget that the so called third class degree is nothing but a cheap lie.

And mind you, ambassadorial deals have NEVER been about your degree, anywhere in the world. If na by degree, why did PUMA sign Wizkid instead of the first class degree holder in your village?

I keep telling people that your education is a wack if you don't know how to put it into a life changing investment. If it is by education, china should not be leading the world in manufacturing today. Your creative ideas and real life business skills are not what you can learn in the four walls of university. So I challenge the first class graduate to make one ground breaking research and invention in her field if she wants to get a recognition for her academic brilliance.

That is it, enough of this paper qualification that we use to discredit people in this country. Some people are very intelligent in starting a business but not academically sound. They don't teach how to build a digital brand or develop a mobile app in university. These people are more useful than any graduates in the labour market today.

Na laziness dey do us in the South where people no dey farm again, food stuffs are very cheap in the north

dennisworld1:
in court is 10percent.. which is 100k

Can you explain this, what do you mean by 10%, do you mean he will not pay the entire money as a bail?

This is serious, I heard when he was picked up by some men of security force. Who will settle the bail for him now?

This means USA is really preparing for war with china, ICBM is the major china's strategic deterrent against the USA. They have it in abundance in their stockpiles, even nuclear powered ones. So if USA can develop capability to shoot down ICBM from the sky, that is a major blow to China because Chinese rely on these special missiles to counter USA's seemingly superior navy which boasts of almost 20 aircraft carriers, China has just two as of yet. USA military presence in indo-pacific means they can use the location of one of their allies in Asia as a launchpad against China, but china doesn't have such strategic presence in north america

However, it is all out to see how many anti missile radars USA will be able to install in order to prevent China's missiles from reaching the USA's mainland.

Any matter that reached the front page of news outlet always gets rewarded by this government. I knew this guy is set for a breakthrough immediately people start discussing his matter on Twitter and nairaland here.

They have hit him where it hurts most, I wouldn't be surprised if Trump concede in the next few days

In America we chose to be called people of color. It might be offensive to you in nigeria but we not here to please you. If the name sounds good to us then we will use it. You cannot expect America to use terms that will please you. We focused on pleasing ourselves

Since when you have been in America self, Miss America? African Americans need to first solve their inferiority complex with the Whites, so it will be easier for them to detect all this subtle derogation towards them when they have developed enough mental capability that can measure up to the Whites. I know it is difficult to do against people who once enslaved them, but it is doable. Human civilization had long gone beyond slavery era.

Peace!

Some people might be saying this Sowore has a political ambition, but he is actually brave for doing all this over the years even during the military juntas. We need someone like him to stand up against all odds in leading the charge against this dehumanizing government of the day. This guy has been molested, incarcerated and threatened, but he is still going strong in the fight, we need a resilient fighter like him. I'm saying this because if there is any option to vote for a presidential candidate tomorrow, I will definitely consider him first, he has really won my heart with his dogged spirit. I can bet it that Nigerian youth will not regret it if he is to win the presidency ticket tomorrow. He is even a self made entrepreneur without having any affiliation to the government. I believe he will understand the plights of people better.

iokpebholo:
Security agents should roast him alive if he dare cause any mayhem.rubbish

Aboki, you will rather die in perpetual poverty and penury right?

All this without hands-on skills is useless to me. Nigerian education doesn't test the real practical intelligence that matters in real world.

Nothing irritates more in this country than these northern leaders with their pathetic lives who think they are solely meant to rule others in this country.

Hollusilva28:
Ha, I'm laughing right now. majority of ladies don't know anything about marriage. Lots of them chasing men all cos of money. I'm not saying money is not good. But ladies of nowadays have choosing money as a priority, they date can't low key men, always looking for rich men to date.

Marriage is not something someone can jump into. Regina has choose her own husband, but deeply inside her, she's not happy, cos her marriage is not smooth. People come to social media to spend their time cos majority are fed up of with their marriage ish.

My advice to all ladies and men, choose wisely, don't love cos of money, it wouldn't end well.

I actually like this move by Ned, it serves that covetous girl well who is searching for an old man millionaire at such a tender age.

This Ned man is using these yello pawpaw women to replenish the curse of hugliness placed upon his generation by his ancestors

I hope this guy doesn't slide into depression with the way he is going about this election thing

These people don pack innocent people finish

Buhari is the real betrayal himself. When youth protested against bad government, did he think they were coming after him. They protested so that he can sanction the law against those evil people who are hiding under his government to inflict hardship on the masses. But what did Buhari do, he sent the military instead to kill them. EndSARS was a great opportunity for Buhari to make big changes to his government, but he chose to view it as an uprising against him.

A leader should be able to take responsibility for his government, if there are kleptocrats in this government then it means Buhari is one.

After SARS don finish their own, these ones kon start their own. Carry on

Nice one

awulio:
You just showed you don’t live in America.... here we asked to be called ppl of color. It’s a sense of pride. If you call someone black here then you would be considered racist. You either call them african American or ppl of color. Ppl of color includes blacks, Asians and Latinos. .....there are many ppl of color that are qualified but don’t get the right jobs because they not white. So Biden is trying to fix that. When you come to America you will see a lot of white ppl with lesser qualifications than you in high positions just because their white. Here if a white person wants a loan they will pay less interest than a black person bcuz banks say white ppl come with less risk. Biden wants to correct those errors

Yeah, it might be true that Biden is down with helping African Americans get equal opportunities as their white counterparts. But that phrase "people of color" is derogatory. It sounds like people that are of less value compared to other humans, like someone of inferior quality to you. Do you know that phrase emanated from the time of slavery? There are so many ways to address people of Africa origin without defying their dignity, you can simply say African American.

It is like you people have become used to abuse that it is difficult to recognize one.

i wonder, when it is election time kamala is black but her herself does not identify as black but Indian American

She is biracial, her father is a Jamaican while her mother is an Indian

"I am not down with this description "people of colour". It is derogatory IMV. So the people who are describing others as people of colour are not people of colour themselves? Same people who pronounce Iran as Hi-ran and Iraq as Hi-raq instead of Hee-ran and Hee-raq, respectively. And I do not believe "people of colour" should be given jobs because they are "people of colour", but given jobs because they are the best for the jobs. And I certainly don't expect CNN to make any news of it, it makes it seem as though they are being done a favour. I am not a person if colour, I am a person: I will treat you as a human being because that is what you are. Your skin is something you'd discard at death and is not of prime imporance."

Everything they give to blacks they want to make it seem as if they are doing them a favor. If covid-19 had affected only Africa, I'm very sure the white folks would have been boasting by now how they helped prevent Africans from going into extinction. Even though Africans have their fundamental weaknesses, but that is not to ignore other talents that are abundant in the continent. If more black people are given a chance in the Biden's government, it is a call to service for them, not a favor.

It battles me how some evil religion zombies in Africa are blindly supporting Trump against this man. Trump never stepped foot in Africa, even though some might argue he has some black folks in his ranks. But this is a man that has a very low opinion and biased assumption about anything that looks different from him, especially blacks.

That was in the military era but EndSARS was in democracy, but unfortunately, the democracy is being threatened by a pseudo democratic president in Buhari

He didn't admit, I said the election was rigged, that wasn't admission.
