sexylassie2: If you are making your cash in your city, don't leave for abuja.
Abuja is not a business or hustling city.
For example, you can not compare computer village in Lagos with zone 3( abuja computer village) Or even the phone village in wuse market to computer village.
It is hard to find jobs for job seeker in abj even govt job is hard.
Abuja was built for civil servants and politics not business.
Lagos,PH and kano are the commercial cities in Nigeria..the rest are doing catching up.
I told someone I always enjoy Kano more than Abuja, the guy dey look me one kain. PH sef bam wella...Abuja na very boring place meen...
muchroom: Nigerians are the happiest people seriously. I mean, who ever thought? Yesterday, a video of a young boy negotiating terms of surrender with his mum after misbehaving went viral. And just look at what a Nigerian has done with the vocals. I literally had my eyes soaked with water watching this over and over. We have some amazingly talented people, Nigeria.

StagethemTVee: I Am In His Life Now, Why Are You Still Here"- Wife To Mother-in-law
Än altercation ensued between a lady and her mum in law over who should seat in front of the car with her husband. The man had obviousy picked up his mum earlier before getting to where his wife was waiting for him.
On getting there, the wife rudely asked the mum to move to the back seat and despite pleas from her husband remained resolute that the mum in law must change seats. Since it takes two to tango, the husband's mum also stayed put and insisted she is not changing position.
A wise woman builds her home, but the foolish one plucketh it down with her own hands...
Even if she's been having her reservations about the mother, what everyone will believe is she destroyed her home because she didn't get the front seat.
ChuckKingston: When I saw this event play out, I realized that you don't need to attend business school or read business oriented books to understand certain basic business strategies.
So from this picture, what lesson can you deduce from this event played out by two business people.
And this nonsense made frontpage?
Dearth of exciting topics shouldn't make every garbage sore our precious eyes...

Carchoice: I was at shoprite yesterday evening, I bought other stuffs and 10 packs of durex condom. At the point of payment, all the stuffs I shopped were on the counter and all eyes were on it. I could hear murmurs and giggles. Even a lady I perceived to be a baby mama sef join dey laugh.
As a careless Nigerian that I am, I went back to the condom shelve and added 5 more packs. E shock them.
Why the hypocrisy? For the background they are sharing HIV and donating pregnancy here and there.
It's not hypocrisy per se, it's just their inability to mind their effing business...

The two others who resigned their appointments are the Chairman of the Edo State Post Primary Education Board, Pastor Gabriel Oiboh and the first member of the board, Osanyemwere Osawe, following alleged pressure being mounted on them to defect to the PDP.
Hon. Iyoha in his resignation letter dated 28th of July, 2020, thanked the Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, for giving him the opportunity to serve the Edo people, but stated that his reasons for resignation is personal.
Similarly, the Chairman of the State Post Primary Education Board, Pastor Gabriel Oiboh, in his own resignation letter, also dated 28th July, 2020, stated that he had considered the political happenings in the state as it affects his person, and the pressure to leave the APC, his party to PDP, a party he left since 2009.
He also stated that having prayerfully considered the options available to him, he has decided to remain in the All Progressives Congress. Meanwhile, seven Councilors of Oredo Local Government Council, including the Councilor of Governor Godwin Obaseki’s Ward 4, have resisted pressure to defect to the PDP and joined the army of those who have decided to remain in the All Progressives Congress to pitch their tent with Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In the same vein, seven out of 10 Councilors in Uhumwode Local Government Council have reportedly pitch tent with Pastor Ize-Iyamu.
Recall that the Chief of Staff to governor Obaseki, Taiwo Akerele, two Commissioners, Hon Paul Ohonbamu, Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Hon Omoua Oni-Okpaku, Commissioner for Environment and Sustenability and several appointees, had resigned their appointments from the Obaseki administration.

jmaine: Those guys are naturally rugged oo.. They have been engaging in deadly tribal disputes for a long time.
Lols @"naturally rugged"
So you mean it might not even be cult related ba? Those guys love fight no be small. Them even dey chawuz police guys for one junction, police go leave their car pick race
Their babes sabi fvck prick ehn! Nothing to do for here pass drink, smoke, fight and fvck oh!..
StevensJojo: Hey.. I have stayed in Yaba and live in Ikeja. It depends on where you stay in both places. Ikeja is generally more peaceful and serene but there are rowdy places too. There is constant light in Ikeja though it comes at a price. If you don’t have prepaid meter, you may be paying 35k upwards for light bill in a flat. That may be cheap or expensive- depending on you.
Commute to the Island? Yaba is definitely better.
Status? You shouldn’t be bothered about what people think. Personally if I had my way, I would look for a quiet peaceful place in Ibadan - or anywhere away from the bustle and close to nature.
Fun? Nowhere is that far. Even if you are not mobile there is Uber.
Thank you very much. Just that I've really missed the nightlife of Lagos to be honest.
Also the cinema experiences really makes me home sick. It's near impossible to find a club that parties till dawn where I am- NorthEast. Cinema?
And the most annoying of all is having people stare at one, being a stranger that one is.
The advantages here however is cheap means of transportation, excessive light (almost 247 oh), affordable, spacious and quality accommodation(my Room and Parlor, with Kitchen, Toilet WC, Borehole water and spacious parking space, all comes at just 145k with 5k agent fees=150k).
Last but not the least are fine exotic chiks that are willing to do you, without a kobo if you're fun to be with. Them too like men for here and dem no even dey hide am sef...
- The independent - The dependent, there is no inbetween.
For the independent, who often get the 'bottom-burnt part of the pot', because usually parents are too old or retired to send them to the best schools, give emotional attention or support financially, unlike their older ones when parents were younger and vibrant.
Some parents would train the older kids expecting them to train the last born. So you see lastborns serving their own siblings. Mostimes inheritance doesn't even get to them.
Inorder not to depend on older siblings, who can't wait to take advantage of them. Last borns learn early in life to be emotionally independent, hustlers, loners etc
Parents should stop this and give every child an equal share in life. This is one of the causes of strife amongst siblings.
This precisely describes me: emotionally independent; a real hustler- as the only Doctor in the whole family tree, and only one bold enough to travel to Yobe state to work; and also an absolute loner.
My siblings till date dont have that spirit I do have.
I'm very glad for reading this thread, it has really opened my eyes to things I dont know about myself...
temmy2210: I can see that she is been loaded with house chores all in the name of baby of the house. Imagine her sister doesn't know how to cook than to load them with pepper.
I feel your pain Aburo mi, but I will encourage you to do your best while you leave the rest. Experience gained today is a plus for you tomorrow. Keep up being hard-working, it pays...
Same thing with my 40year old elder sister oh. Even ordinary to boil rice, na soso water.
Her domineering attitude can't even get her to see husband. Na soso useless church she go dey go, but to change her attitude, Sam! She no go do...
Geemario: Greetings! to all last born here, it's with a pitious mind; I write to solicit for a strong association, where our individual's rights would be harnessed through thorough discussions, as we may have good legal solicitors too in the association; having seen the trauma one of us is going through in his/her family house. I believe many good number of us have similar experiences to share; but have no platform to do so. The association shall be a well disciplined one, and shall take the members' matter with utmost concern. Whomever that can create a facebook account for it should kindly do so and circulate it to the public. Acceptance would be after series of questions and the association deem it legible of the applicant to be a member with evidence can the application be accepted. Also many benefits would be made available therein, such as: job opportunities and so on. All concerned, let's help ourselves and break that belittling attitudes, even in sharing of the collective family's inheritance, our brothers and sisters do show us. Thank you all.
Futuragetty: Ahh, I am the youngest of the children being raised by my parents. I understand how you feel. in my case, I'd get up very early to wash cars, that I was too small to drive. In fact, My immediate sister gave me over 8+ years gap. but then, doing those chores really helped me. Living on my own, I don't find cooking, cleaning and doing anything at all difficult. some of my brothers can't cook, whenever He has a fall out with the wife, he runs to my kitchen
Imagine...
Elder siblings can be quite useless, even to themselves!!!
middlebelter: I don't know while the mother of the house is not being blamed here. Responsibilities should be distributed to children as soon as they are old enough to handle it. Why will the mother or father in the absence of a mother,watch the elders in the house overburden the younger one to the extent of wall Ng her up to put off the generator. That is not good. People who want to watch the film to their satisfaction should be ready to put it off when they are through or you set a minimum time to put it off when everyone is awake. The truth is that if not properly handled it can lead to resentment among siblings that will be difficult to erase.
Responsibilities should be distributed and rotated including cooking. Senior that want the younger one to wash plate must earn it through granting of favour to the junior and junior must respect the elders but not be burdened with chores. That's my verdict. I rise.
Exactly what's happen between me and my siblings.
Funny thing is, despite my now being richer than them all, dem still dey get that funny sense of entitlement till date. Imagine gadgets I brought to our late mothers house for keeps and her temporary enjoyment, she's finding it difficult to help me ship it back to where I work in the North, cos her eyes don enter am. She wan use style my-own-ize am.
I just dey look her dey laugh, by the time i fully settle in Lagos, i will come one day and clear everything out.
Kizzygentle: You should be privileged been the last born in d 1st place. You complaining of your older ones been lazy is wrong. Every member of a family played such roles at one stage in the family. This same lazy siblings are the ones that will cater for your well being when d time comes. Mind you it would be based on how u have managed yourself as d last born that you would also enjoy your lazy older ones. Let me give you one secret as a last born. When you do all this houseworks diligently without complaining no matter how long it takes, I promise you that you would reap it handsomely even when you get married. Your older one's are monitoring them. They would do everything humanly possible that you lack nothing, they can go as far as borrowing money just for you. But u see this complain up and down, when the time comes you would be asking yourself why is my senior sis/bro not giving me money na. Choose wisely.
You never jam useless older siblings. They would milk you dry, and still belittle you ontop...
