Allahu Akbar!!!!

Ndi ara!

linearity:
[s]What you have described is not a right, but an inflated sense of entitlement.

She and her brother were leaving at the same address, she is not a 'ward' of her brother; after getting down from your high-horse, pull up a dictionary and lookup the meaning of the word 'ward'.

If an investigation is launched; yes the authorities will lookup to you for answers, as they will do in any case, with anyone that was the last person to see a missing person or living with them; the fact that authorities will ask you questions does not create an obligation on her part.....in college roommates get questions about other roommates by authorities all the time, it does not create any right or obligation.

Her rights to privacy, which is backed by Nigeria laws; overrides and trumps your inflated sense of entitlement to know.

That said, like I had earlier indicated...depending on the family dynamics, it is up to her to choose to disclose or not to disclose her where about. None of us know what happened that made her to choose not to do so, but it is her right[/s].

More gibberish!

Only goodness knows the kind of fvcked up family or society you grew up in to give you this confidence to spill the nonsense you're spilling. Like, you can just wake up one morning and disappear without trace, without word of where you're headed to the people you stay with and maybe when you're done gallivanting the world, you then show up weeks, months or years after at the house without anyone knowing where you're coming from, in the name of "it is my right not to tell anybody"....It defies common sense.

In the homes of millions of sane Nigerians, even our fathers and mothers who bore us, would never leave the house, without any one knowing where they went to, not to talk of disappearing for weeks. It never happened in ANY sane family and when it did, people raised alarm.

Now the family are the ones running around, spending money on both police & logistics alongside the trauma but your selfish block head, thinks she owes no one any word of where she went to?

No one is asking for details of who you're going to fvck, how many rounds of sex you're going to have, but common sense, a sense of responsibility/accountability, in the spirit of everyone watching out for each other in this crazy world, it is expected that your wards, family, friends you stay with can give basic account of "where" you are or where you're going to.

linearity:
[s]Re-read my post, I did not say, I wouldn't say anything....neither did I say, I wouldn't be concern or declare them missing as the family did here.

What, am saying is that, the lady have the right to not inform anyone and she is not obligated to do so, but can do so out of courtesy & respect for her family if she so choose, especially if they are in good terms.

It is important to understand what someone is saying and not to impute words to them. If someone say, something is not 'black', it does not mean they are saying, the thing is 'white'....In real life there are neither black nor white, rather there are many shades of grey in between than you may know[/s].

You dey make noise abeg. Just twisting your own words upandan. How can you open your mouth and say that the girl is NOT obligated to tell the family she stays with her whereabouts? Are you even remotely joking? Have you heard of the word accountability?

You're living in my house (not your house) as my ward and then you go missing for 2 weeks and you think I don't have a "right" to know? Aside the trauma you're causing me, when the authorities are looking for you and launch investigarions, I'll be the first point of call...Doesn't that tell you something? We're not even talking about the fact that society will hold me accountable to an extent for not knowing the whereabouts of my ward in the name of "it's her right not to tell me" ?

If you don't feel any obligation to let your parents, family you stay with, in to days and possibly weeks of disappearing from the house, in present day Nigeria, you're an adult, you're better off living on your own...at that point, they do not have full responsibility or accountability over you.

If Anambra man wan do anything, e dey do am to the extreme...e dey do am finish!

If they want to do business, they milk it & become successful at it.
If they want to go to school, they distinguish themselves.

I envy those people.

mvem:
Organized crime is something that is very difficult to solve in the US,its not just about movies...infact movies are not really to far from the truth

Not disputing that. My point is, as long as the police get leads on the killers, they would definitely be brought to book. The organised crime syndicates know this, reason they send in professional hitmen, to do the job (not some random trigger happy knuckle head looking for whom to kill) in the most professional way & leave next to no traces, thereby making it difficult for the authorities to do their job.

Even the police have clearly said, this was a professional hit going by the first clues they have, from seeing on surveillance camera, the gunman in masks, gloves & a briefcase.

All the authorities need, are just leads and clues and not even the organised criminals can stop them.

Acidosis:
This guy only raised money from these so called sponsors in 2019. The time is just too short to take someone's life. Who go murdering people with a chain saw over a default in loan repayment in such a short time? Most venture capitalists won't even expect a pay back until after 5 years when your business must have grown.

Majority of startups don't make profit even in 10 years. Jumia is a case in point.

Trust me, I don't really see how his death is related to a loan default. Let's not forget, Gokada started in Lagos in 2017. Too short a time to kill a man. And last time I checked, the Lagos state ban on Okada business hasn't stopped his business per se. They've only transitioned to another sector -- delivery/logistics.

Let's just wait for the police to do a thorough job. It is well.

Valid points...Definitely not related to Gokada investment. That said, there are a number of things to consider;
1. A 33 year old man, who can make multi-million $ investments in different countries, buy an apartment of $2.5 million in New York, all these despite not having any known successful multi million $ exit, can easily raise an eye brow.
2. He does have investment in Colombia in a ride hailing start-up...That can easily raise an eye brow
3. The manner in which he was killed, clearly shows it was a professional hit & the killer/killers wanted to send a message (mafia, mob style)

Aside number 3, these are just wild assumptions from my end but I mean, it could be anything

Nigerian doctors are demi gods...we MUST all bow down in worship to them...Ndi ara!!

tesseract:
[s]First thing my mind went to. Just like what the investors did to Jeevan in Gangs of London when the money they had invested got missing. Stuff of Hollywood. [/s]

[s]Funny thing is there will be no investigation, even if there is it will meet a dead end because these guys are powerful.[/s]

The only reason it will reach a dead end, is because authorities have no clue or can't get leads. As long as there are leads, the killer/killers will be apprehended....Easy on the movies + this is not Nigeria

baba no mind them.. hushy na the richest black man alive.

Odé...I can imagine you spilling this gibberish to the illiterates around you

DrRasheed:
Believe me sir I truly understand your predicament. My friend have these same issue. Exactly like yours. He travelled to several states looking for cure, it only subsides and after long time resurface again. Please if you eventually find the cure, just tag me so that I surprise him.

Try this and let's know what happens. That's most likely warts and this is the best home remedy for warts...Tried and tested

Dilute 2 tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar in 1/2 cup of water and rub face with cotton wool at night. Use for two weeks and see if there is improvement.

This right here, is the solution...

The Day I won #500k with #50 on nairabet online.
7 draws accumulation.
December of 2014.
I was waiting for my neighbour to buy groundnut to soak garri that night.
I just say make I check result and the game enter. All Green. I no make noise, I just go outside go cry tears of Joy.
My roommate never knew I won money. They were just worried for me. Only nairalanders knew about it. Freshaboki! It is well.

Did you make good use of the money? Honest answer, I'm just curious...

Ignore the charade...

The Director-General implored business owners in the entertainment and tourism sector who are yet to comply with the directive, to promptly do so by registering on www.lasgsafetyreg.com in order to receive their provisional safety compliance letters in preparation for the full reopening.

This is the crux of the story...Registration, then an office opened for some criminals.

Lagos state is all about milking and milking...ediots!

The site no even dey open...e dey return dns error. Awon eleribu!

einsteine:
Be deceiving yourself. Premiership footballers earn in the top 1% in England and you say they are living the same standard with 800k in Nigeria? Someone earning 800k in Nigeria can't even build a nice house without saving for years and years. Six weeks of Kante's wages will buy a townhouse in London.

I'm just reading through the ridiculous comments...Comparing 800k naira with someone earning 200k pounds

jumper524:
how many jobs pay up to 800k monthly in Nigeria?

Are remotely okay?

So you seriously want to compare someone earning 800k naira with someone earning 200k pounds per week? Or you're just trolling?

Fact!

internationalman:
Their standard of leaving is high over there in the sense that a Kano Pillars player who earns maybe 800k a month can almost or exactly live life the same way Kante does in the UK.

You're a clown!

These clowns are simply taking us for a ride with all these distractions...Nothing will come out of all these shenanigans...

Ediots!

As I stated previously, I took the 3 months job because I wanted to meet new people and share ideas. I have been a contract developer for over 4years.

As to clarify the criteria of a thing, my market worth is far over that. I left the 50k job for a 3k$ job.

Maybe you haven't met a Dev like me. I used to be money inclined but I found out it doesn't help. The experience I got from the 50k job helped in getting the 3k$ job

Lots of contradictions in your post though.
1. What does someone want to "learn" in a 50k programming job that cannot be learnt freelancing or developing yourself by reading and harnessing tons of free tutorials online, since the person claims to be worth more than that?
2. You're not money inclined but took up a mouth watering "offer" of $3k, yimu.
3. Your market was worth more than 50k according to you but you had to commute for 7 hours a day for a meagre 50k a month? Tell that to another person fam.

That said, I totally respect your views and opinion just stating some things I see that does not add up, which is entirely my own view too.

grossintel:
Any programmer earning less than 100k is not a serious person. Even freelancing alone can generate that monthly comfortably, a good WordPress guy can't go a month without a single job worth like 30k so what are you saying.

Simple!

benjijosh:
Yeah but not always true. Some devs are not really bothered about the money.

I used to commute 7hrs a day for a 50k job around Jan - Mar. I took the job because I wanted to meet new people and luckily for me, I met great personalities there.

Which devs are not bothered about money? Lemao...

That devs are well paid, is not a function of choice but skill set, experience and the premium placed on their skills by market forces (average earnings in the industry, demand and supply of programmers), which in turn means they'll always command good wages.

If you decided to get a job of 50k, it had nothing to do with the above as you most likely didn't fit into the criteria to earn more than 50k.

Cry me a river!

You're the one earning 50k...You're the one creating a thread because you're afraid you'll loose your new job and free beans shared at work.

You're the one crying the river

That guy was so ignorantly spilling nonsense with confidence. Wow

Very ridiculous and spurious claim.
