SportsRe: How Sport Bet Ruined And Destroyed Me For 7 Years by PitexyBaba(m): 7:47pm On Jul 05, 2021
Iovercame:
This is a lil story about my 7 years deep addiction to sport bet and in this 7 years I lost everything when I mean everything

and I beg you in whatever you hold dear, I beg you in your mother's name, I beg you in your child's innocent life, I beg you in whichever God you pray too if you're in sport bet or about to start or no matter how far you have gone you can still stop so you don't lose everything like I did before I got my salvation

I was 18 in 2014 and I had just finished from secondary school and Because I loved football so much anything about football intrigued me

I remember writing my jamb and came out in flying colors (260) and I was to proceed to take my post utme when I first found and heard about sport betting

Then it was Rapido I think and Nairabet. It started as fun, just wanting to waste that 100 in excitement of what you loved and I remembered my first winning of 14k ( I wished I never won that)

That 14k I won hooked me in till February of this year and because my close knit friends knew I won that 14k and my love for football they always asked me to "forcast" games for them

I was so hooked to sport bet that my spiritual life suffered because I stopped thinking about God all I wanted was to win that imaginary millions

I remember passing my utme and Mom was happy I passed my utme as all she wanted was for me to have a quality education

Unfortunately life happened and I couldn't proceed to school again as there was no sponsor so I had to get a job in apapa wharf

I was the quiet type, I never drank or smoked or womanize , I don't even talk much unless in my line of duty but all I did was sport bet. I was paid 85k per month because my job was high risk but before I get my salary I would have used it all on sport bet

One thing I never did was steal or lie or use someone's else's money to play sport bet but I was so addicted to this demon called sport bet

From 2016 when I started working in apapa wharf till we were made to stop working because of the pandemic last year I Lost everything I had and worked for due to sport bet

I always dressed well, even till date I still dress well with neat and good cloths so you never know but in between those clothes I was suffering, I was crying each day because I knew I was wasting away

I have never taken cocaine or no the effect it has on those addicted to it but I can tell you nothing beats that of sports bet

I would cry after each lose and say no more but the moment I got another money I was in it again

The bet9ja guy in my neighborhood could allow me play games up to 100k because he knows I would pay him when I get my salary. Each night I prayed and cried to stop this but I was never able to

I rather play sport bet than eat, I knew I was destroying my life but I couldn't stop

I was a good guy, a loyal guy, my boss loved me because I was hard working so he dashes me money but I never saved any, all I did was sport bet

I remember after the first week the pandemic was eased I went to him and told him I had a problem and he asked what's the problem and I told him you are like a father to me so I feel comfortable telling you this( I thought after 4 year's a loyal worker can see a boss as a father), I need help because I'm addicted to sport bet. Then he asked me questions upon questions and I was sincere to each of his questions and he asked me if I had any savings left I told him no that sport bet took everything, he asked if I have ever stolen from him I told him if I did Mr shonibare the auditor would have known but after that he changed drastically

It was after that incident of me telling him I needed help I lost my job.

I was told because of the effect of the pandemic I had to stop coming that I would be called back but it's More than a year I haven't been called but I blame me telling him I was addicted to sport bet

All I wanted was just help

Then I had no job again and had a mouth to feed so I decided to start working as a labourer or doing any menial Job just to survive ( one thing about me was I was hard working and never derelict in my work or hustle) but guess what I never stopped playing sport bet because I wanted that imaginary millions

I would be paid 1500 as a labourer and 1000 would surely go to sport bet that same day and I would eat with 500 and I didn't win

No one knew I was in bondage, no one knew I lost my job because each morning I would dress neat and go do labourer and come home neat like I was coming from apapa, no one knew I was dying slowly due to my addiction

I can't begin to mention in naira how much I lost but thank God today made it 4 months I last played sport bet and I remembered how I stopped

It was a game I was suppose to win 1.8M with a stake of 1500 which was my last money and Liverpool vs Fulham was the last game and I staked it over 1.5 goals and I was excited because Fulham scored in the first half and I said at Last I finally won today and would get a car to do Uber and stop this finally but guess what it ended 1-0 and oh I cried, I cried aloud, I cried and yelled and gnashed my teeth like a woman crying to bring forth a child or like when Mom died, I cried so loud my tenants came and I told them my brother died but that day was my day of salvation

I cried so much ehh and In my tears i prayed to my mother this time around to come and deliver me as I was overwhelmed and needed help and I slept hungry that day because I had no money and I had used my last money to bet and in my dream I remembered I was choking so I vomited I think 50k and a palatable food and in the dream I wanted to take the money and food to eat but I had a voice. Oh I had that voice I hadn't heard for years and she called me my native name that only she did and I looked up and I saw my Mom from afar and she said don't touch it and go back now, but I said to her I was broke and hungry and she said do you want to touch or carry back your vomit? And I said no and she said now go back and I turned and Immediately I woke up I knew I had won but I knew I still had to play my own part to win finally

I went out from all the telegram betting group I belonged too, deactivated my nairaland account because I was always in the bet section, deactivated all of my bet site account

I remembered I didn't play for 3 days and I had 3k saved for the first time in months and I got on Twitter and I saw a guy saying a game is sure and the devil wanted to play with my mind but guess what that same day I had to sale my phone so I don't think or see anything about football , I packed up my DStv and TV not to watch football and see the advert of any sport betting company and for the first time in almost 7 years I went a week without sport bet WOW I was happy. the following week passed and another and another and the money I sold my phone with I didn't touch it, I had saved like 15k from my working as a menial labourer and I got another phone and I thought I was gonna fall but this morning Made it 6 weeks that I got a new phone and I haven't played or logged in to any betting site thank you Jesus

Last night I had to go to Instagram because I was feeling sad because of everything I had lost and i saw my best friend picture, I felt so sad, I cried my eyes because we are Miles apart, he doesn't call or text again and I understand I was useless, I was the brilliant one that fell, I was the lil innocent quiet handsome one that lost his easy due to sport bet

He looked so good and I blamed my self for everything but I'm in the road to recovery

Sport bet Made me lose my job, my mom, my peace, all of my savings, my friends because I couldn't compete with them financially as I was always broke but thank God today I have a New beginning and a fresh start. I know things are so hard right now but I feel like a fresh Man, a Man born again, a Man like a new born. It's almost or More than 90 days now since i last played sport bet and oh I have peace, lol I have such peace, yes occasionally when I don't have somewhere to work or when I'm lonely and think of where I should be I sigh but I say Thank you Jesus, thank you my savior

Please I beg you, sport bet would destroy you, sport bet would end you, sport bet would make you so useless, sport bet would would take everything from you, sport bet would make you lose everything you worked for, sport bet would make you become so isolated. Please stop now. I know it's hard, very hard I have been there but if I can do it I swear you can, I have lost 300k in a day before and the next day I had 2k and lost it again. Please sport bet is devilish and a destiny destroyer. You can't win them, Come out of nairaland for a while if you have too, come out of Twitter if you have too, anything that makes you think about it I'm begging you now please come out of it. Just like yesterday I was 18, now I'm 25, broke, lost everything but it's fine I would rise again. Don't be like me ok

Thank you and God bless us all for reading
I read this post line by line without omitting any word.
I'm happy abt this post. Its an eye opener to us. I stop playing bet yesterday too. Its destiny destroyer... I'm happy for you brother . I love you.

Nairaland GeneralRe: If You Don't Want People To Disrespect You, Stop Doing These 10 Things (Opinion) by PitexyBaba(m): 8:43pm On May 23, 2021
Vipro:
Recently, a friend told me about an embarrassing situation he experienced. He attended a small party and out of all the attendees, he was the only one that was not served food. Sincerely, I couldn't control my laughter when he was recounting his story because it sounded funny. With a frown on his face, he said "I wasn't invited to the party anyway". At that point, I knew he was at fault.


A wise man once told me that respect can only be earned, not forced. It implies that before people can respect you, there is a price to pay; you need to be worthy of it.

When people respect you, they place you in high regard and value your opinion. They don't belittle you or make you feel worthless. Also, they treat you specially.

For instance, my friend was not respected at the party he attended. He even said the host didn't even acknowledge his presence. That's disappointing!


Whether you're rich or poor, educated or illiterate, good-looking or not, you deserve to be respected. Respect feeds the ego and makes us feel good.

So, if you don't want people to disrespect you, stop doing these 10 things;

1. Stop going to places you are not invited to

2. Stop calling and chatting up people who don't call you

3. Stop laughing uncontrollably when people insult you; caution them immediately

4. Stop begging people for money; double your hustle

5. Stop visiting people who don't visit you

6. Stop contributing to discussions that don't concern you


7. Stop chasing after people who don't know you exist

8. Stop mingling with people who have no plans for the future

9. Stop sleeping and relaxing when you're supposed to be working

10. Stop fighting and insulting people, especially in public




Try your best to avoid the 10 things listed above, you'll be surprised at how people will see you differently and start respecting you.

Have you ever been disrespected by someone close to you? Kindly share your story.

Thanks for reading.
No 3 is the key.

Truly here is my gambling story.I started actively like 6 months ago. between then and now i have gained about 350,000 thousand naira. however i have noticed that i am on a losing streak, like just yesterday i lost 12000 to real madrid. and its funny this topic came up today and i am the first person to post because i believe the LORD is warning me to quit. however after that real madrid loss i already vowed to leave it alone permanently because like i said i had already won about 500 thousand in the past 6 months but the losing streak i am on has dwindled it to 350 thousand profit over the gambling houses. so i think i want to leave on top meaning i won and they lost. i took 350, thousand from them. and so i have quit permanently

although i am tempted to do a last bet on the champions league finals grin grin grin grin grin i want to put something on manchester city

THE DIARY OF SCHOOL OWNER: The I-know-what-I-Want parent.

Receptionist: Hello ma, there's a prospective parent for enquiry. She is at the reception. She insists on seeing you.

Me: Ok what does she want? What did you discuss?

Receptionist: She is a police man's wife so I gave her the military men discount and She is ok with the total bill. I have taken her round too, But she just insists on seeing you ma.

Me: Ok let her come.
.

(In my office)
Prospect Parent: Goodmorning ma.

Me: Good morning Mrs... Please have a seat.

Prospect Parent: Mrs Kodesho

Me: Ok. Mrs Kodesho. Welcome to Empire Academy. I was told you wanted to see me. Didn't my people treat you well (smiling nicely)?

Prospect Parent: Oh they did. Wow, so you have discount for uniform people? That's a good one oo. weldone.
I really like your school oo. The environment is so beatiful but I just want to know the curriculum you use.

Me: Ok ma. Well, before we get to curriculum, I will like to know what precisely you are looking for in searching for a school for your child.

Prospect Parent: Hmmmm, weeeelll, I want a place close to my house and I also want a school I can afford.

Me: Okkk, Proximity And affordability right?

Prospect parent: You may say so.

Me: but if I may ask. Where do you stay.

Prospect parent: Just behind the mosque

Me: Oh you are close to us nau, thats good to know. So Why haven't you walked in since over five years we've been here or did you just move in.

Prospect parent: Noo, I have living here for over 8 years now. Just that they say your fees is high oo

Me: Wow! Really? So why did you decide to come now,you think our fees is cheaper now?

Prospect Parent: Well since after corona, I know that schools will be looking for students and reducing school fees anyhow. I know I can get a good discount now

Me: Hhmmmm...Okkk, we appreciate you considering us for your child. Thank you. So you asked about our curriculum. We use a blended curriculum, but which curriculum do you prefare.

Prospect Parent: I really don't know any ooo. But I hear that Montessori is good.

Me: Montessori? I thought your child is in basic class?

Prospect Parent: Yes,She will be going to basic 4 now. She is 8years already. In her former school she used to come first in her class.

Me: Sorry to interupt you ma'am, but Which school is that?

Prospect Parent: (smiling mockingly ) Ah madam, leave that school oo. They dont teach anything at all. Only to be collecting big big money. Me I am tired of them sef. I am here now so let's leave old thing to be in the past.

Me: Meanwhile did you come with her past result

Prospect Parent: Yes ma

Me: Let me have it.
( she handed the result over to me and I was able to see the name of the school. Guess what? It is PRO of NAPPS in my chapter)

Me: Well madam, this is primary 2 result.

Prospect Parent: Yes she was in primary two before the lockdown and she was coming first in her class then. she is very intelligient, The lesson teacher that taught her during that lock down used primary 3 textbook. That's why I decided she should go to primary 4 now.

Me: Mrs Kodesho, this a wrong decision you are making. It is total bad idea. We went on lockdown in second term of her basic 2. She didnt finish second term, she completely missed third term. First term came again and you did not enrol her into school and now you are talking about basic 4?

Prospect Parent: Madam, Don't worry she will cope. I know my daughter. She is very smart, Just put her in basic 4. Besides I want her to write common entrance by next year.

Me: Ok, hold on first Let me find out if we still have space in that class.

(Over the phone with my PA)

Me: Please get me the Admin Officer

Me: (Admin Officer in my office) AO do we still have space in primary 4 we are prospecting another child for that class?

AO: Oh no ma. Basic 4 is full already, the twins and the other two parents that came last friday resumed today. Besides I just concluded registration for the parent you met at the reception this morning. So we are full for that class. We can't jampack the class, we are strictly adhering to all govt policies on covid 19.

Me: And Basic 3?

AO: Yes, we can take two more for basic 3

Me: Ok thank you AO, you can go.

Me: So sorry Mrs Kodesho. We are full for primary 4.

Prospect Parent: Okkkk... Well..., hmmmm.., you can put her in primary 3.

Advocatejustice:
First of all, forget your background or how you were raised, things are changing fast and technology is blending us with the reality of the western culture.

I can feel your plight but what you should have done is to take that student to the principal before independently flogging him.

You have no justifiable ground flogging that student according to the law because it was never part of the agreement made between the parents and the school.

The principal to curtain such things repeating itself in the future if he is not pleased with that kind of behaviour should draft an agreement covering such behaviour and the likely punishment the student will face. Copies of these agreements should be given to both the parents and the teacher to sign after coming to agreement with its content.

Parents have autonomous rights over the protection of their children and you should not in the guise of "helping" them to train their children expose their children to injury, fear or traumatized experience.

Face your duty as a teacher and teach those students those subject you were employed to teach and teach them well.

To their parents you are not in the position to teach them morals, no one knows what you've done or are doing as well that is not generally accepted as a right way of doing things.

I have personally met a Lady who is a prostitute at night and a teacher in a private school by day. So aunty, hypocrisy is everywhere in this country, and those students parent are aware of these.

Our culture of flogging students and engaging them in painful exercises as the punishment for their suppose wrong is inhumane, traumatizing and demoralizing of human dignity but we as black race will never just can't ramped our head in recognising and accepting these as a fact because colonization ate deep into our brains and we continue to treat ourselves the same way the colonial masters treated us.

Religion is not also helping matters, we are just so conscious of destroying ourselves and bringing ourselves under slavery and manipulation in the name of "mentoring" to making heaven.

Don't starve yourself unnecessary if you have not found another job!
Really?
