I remember the day I said I was not going to eat due to anger as a kid.

I have forgotten what exactly happened that evening, but I was Spanked and quarreled So I made up my mind that I wasn't going to eat anything in that house

Dinner was served and I was called upon to dine with my family but I refused. I told them to leave me, that I WON'T eat.

Everyone ignored me, focused on the food and when they were done, they took the Remnant to the kitchen and kept. It was supposed to be my Ration/share.

Maybe I was expecting my mom to Beg me or Pet me to join them but she didn't. Not begging me to eat vexed me greatly that I vowed "Lai Lai, I won't eat tonight, let me even die as a result of hunger but you see that food? I will never touch it"

Bed time came and everyone went to bed but for whatever reason, I couldn't sleep. It was as if the kingdom of darkness, alongside the chief priest in my village merged with The host of marine spirits that night to send Hunger.

I had never experienced that type of hunger before in my entire life, My intestines were cutting. It was as if I drank poison. I couldn't think of closing my eyes not to talk of sleeping.

When it looked like I will pass out the next 3 minutes? I crawled to the dark kitchen and used the Google map and flashlight in my head to locate the food they initially begged me to eat.

I tried to be as quiet as possible. You know it will be a big shame if anyone catches me eating same food I rejected so I was criminal about it.

When I located the food, I quickly sat down in an angle in the kitchen like a rat devouring someone's BSc.

The hunger in me didn't even notify me that I was making noise as I rushed the food before I die for nothing.

And the next thing I saw was a torch light flashing directly towards me. It was my mom. She had noise in the kitchen and came to know if Armmed robbers broke Into our house just to attack her pots of food.

I didn't know what to do or say, I felt ashamed but at the same time, I can't die because of hunger and pride nah. No!

She made sure she flashed me the torchlight well and went back to bed without even saying a word.

My people of God, that was how I survived that night. It's still a testimony to me.

From that day ehn, if I know they will beat me by 7PM. I make sure I eat till my satisfaction till 6pm or even 6:30 pm. In case that demonic spirit in my head deceives me not to eat after the beating.
She made sure she flashed you with the torchlight very well and went back to bed without even saying a word, hmm...

On this note; you have a darling and understanding mum. God bless her!

I would trust an iPhone 7 without headphone jack than an S9plus with that nonsense headphone jack.that pore will surely allow water leak and that's where Samsung where very foolish. iPhones are the best ppl, shift away from android, una no dey shame lol
You are a tech ingrate, so if there's no openings again for water to pass in except earphone jack??
And lemme tell you, every phone is certified by a body after passing through rigorous testing before it's given an IP rating not that the phone brand just slam an IP rating on the phone..an each IP rating have specifications, like for IP68, it can only be submerged in a fresh water 30m deep for less than 15 minutes. No company advertises that the phone can resist salt water, cause salt water tends to dissolve more faster than fresh water, so going to the beach to swim with your phone is risky even with the so called jackless iPhones

P.S Samsung have been into water resistant phones before most you know Huawei

maybe you don't know, samsung phones have the best water resistance as at the moment... and by way salt water and fresh water sre not the same.... salt corrodes metals...

Again iphones are the worst of over priced pieces of tech... Get and XSMax and compare with the s10
Thanks bro.. they don't know the difference

Salt water damages electrical circuits faster than ordinary water and causes faster corrosion too. That's why ship bottoms are covered with thick layers of paint and anti rust greasing. Did Samsung tell them to go and swim inside ocean? grin They don't have a case

stanley000:
does Samsung deliver softwar updates to their devices? If yes for how many years long and how fast are the updates releasedans delivered to their devices? I will wait
Samsung runs a separate OS on their phones apart from stock Android, so for every Android upgrades, they have to do some tweaking to the OS so as to be compatible with Android hence it takes time before the update

And they release monthly updates too, so I don't know your point, even s9 and note 9 now have a dedicated night mode settings cia updates something iPhone haven't done with their xsmax

Re: Samsung Sued Over Water-resistant Phone Claims by WHIZKIDEFE(m):
I don't know what they are talking about oh cos, as for me myself, and i, i dun dey put my Samsung phones inside water since the days of s5. grin

I dun use S7, s7 edge and s8+ dey enta inside pool take pictures n video wella, nothing sup, the phones work well afterwards. I jus hope s10 won't fall my hands sha cos if it does, i go sue Samsung personally (like dat P'sqare song)

The 2 things i love about Apple products is their market value n strong security.

Iphones n Macbooks market value dey barely drop, unlike Samsung phones that their prices decreases on a daily basis. sad

Dear Samsung n Iphone users, make ona use the phones wey suit ona, everbody get their preferences. Using one brand doesn't make you superior or better than people who are using other brands. wink

Those companies are steady making their 'benjamins' and dem nor even recognize say ona dey here dey kill ona selves over battle of supremacy. undecided

Why belittle your fellow countryman trying to prove what i don't know. Abeg make we wise up, Na brain be jazz man grin

I can't and won't say updates are nothing... my comparison is by features present in a phone and how good the quality of the phone is, for example you can't compare the displays, cameras or camera qualities in both devices.

One thing I'll always say is that iphones are fluid which is very good... asides that.... undecided

Only kids get freaked about updates. iPhone 6s running the latest iOS update has less features and functionalities than S6 that recently stopped receiving security updates. Aple is notorious for breaking iphones with every update and every update is fixing a bug caused by the last update.

Lastly, there are millions of windows 7 users despite 8, 8.1 and 10 versions being available. Only kids get freaked with updates

I had been showing off by Samsung and inserting it in water until last December when I showed off to my brothers. The thing just stopped working. Two days later it flickered on but the screen was still doing bla bla...took a month before it restored fully.

My friend used his iPhone Xs in the pool last two weeks...
He spent 90k to repair it.

Don't test village people. All these water proof claims ba scam.
