Romance / What's The Hype Behind The Game Of Chess? (Pic) by Proudman1: 4:38pm On Jun 06
Honestly, I keep wondering why people hype people who play chess?

Like exactly what's the point of the hype?

In Nigeria today we have chess tournament in the streets and all sorts of chess geniuses and protege

But What really is the benefits of the game or what makes it special compared to our local ludo, ten-ten, suwé or drafts?

I understand that people tend to feel chess is some kind of brain work or brain boosting stuff.

But most chess world best players that we know never go on to become someone remarkable in their career fields. Instead, they will only go on to play the chess game.

So, what's so special about chess exactly because I'm lost here

Romance / What Would You Do If You're This Friend And This Happens To You? (pic) by Proudman1: 4:24pm On May 26
So you loaned N300,000 to your friend last year, and since then, your friend has refused to pay you back, which has really deteriorated your friendship and caused misunderstandings between you two.

You asked your friend to just pay back N100,000 and forget the rest because you’re in a financial crisis and really need money. Your friend then said he/she could only give you N50,000, saying that’s all he/she has.

You felt like you had no option but to accept. So you eventually gave your friend your account details to send the money to your bank.

You woke up the next morning and saw an alert for N500,000. It was like a dream. You quickly opened your bank app to check your account to reconfirm, and you indeed had N500,000 in it, sitting there pretty.
You kept staring at it in disbelief, but it was indeed N500,000.

You checked your call records and saw more than 50 missed calls from your friend and an additional 20 text messages begging you to transfer back N450,000, saying he/she only meant to send you N50,000 and mistakenly added an extra zero.

What are you gonna do? Are you going to
A. Send back the N450,000
B. Take your full N300,000
C. Keep the entire N500,000

JohnBullMySon:
The steel rolling part of the plant has always been functional.

What is abandoned is the Blast Furnace complex that converts ore to iron. The blast furnace was never turned on even for one minute.

They import the steel they roll.
why are they then making the thing look like they are now functional?

** the worst thing was that my uncle even sent me 10k yesterday.

Normally he'll call and ask if he should send the money to my Opay, first bank or PalmPay account.

But strangely, yesterday he didn't. He just sent the 10k straight to my first bank account.

I saw the alert yesterday I wan kolo grin

I just had to call him and thank him quietly grin

Romance / My Bank Is Showing Shege: What Can I Do To Earn At Least 5k Today Or Tomorrow? by Proudman1: 7:13pm On May 15
I don see shege from FirstBank no be small.

So, I have money in my first bank account but can't touch that money.

This issue has been going on for about 2+ weeks now.

So, I received about 70k from my Amazon publisher account and first bank automatically froze the account.

I went to the bank and they said I need to do KYC since I was operating a student account.

I said okay, no problem na, let me do the KYC. To start the process, they said my BVN name and account name are not matching.

They then ask me to bring an affidavit from the court. I rushed to court to get one.

Affidavit that's N500, the clerk in the court was charging us N2,000. But clearly it was written on it that it's N500.

Anyways, since I have over 70k in my account, I didn't care much. So I paid the 2k for the affidavit.

I should have known that this problem tie gele for head with hand bag.

Naso I enter bank o. I submitted the documents to correct the BVN. They then asked me to come back in 3-5 days.

Ha, where I wan see money stay till then? I just spent the last cash I have on the affidavit!

Naso I take trek from bank reach school hostel that day.

In 3 days time, I went back. Nothing show. They kept saying they are not able to do anything that it is the CBN's fault.

The matter weak me sha. Because that 70k was my hope for this month.

I trekked back again. And returned 5 days later and this time the bvn name has been changed.

Okay. I was happy that anyhow they will unfreeze my account today.

For where?..!!

I went to the other customer agent. She then asked for my national ID card, nepa bill. I gave her everything.

The next thing she said was I should come back in 10 days time!

Like how now? You have all my details why am I to come back in 10 days time?

This is the same account I've been using since 2015 o.

I was really depressed that day because how do I survive 10 days when I have no kobo on me eh?

It was really frustrating honestly.

I just left the bank that day with anger, frustration, hunger and another round of trekking to the hostel.

Traditional banks need to do better. I've been using Opay and never faced this type of issues before.

Yesterday, being the 5th day, first bank sent me a mail that my application is now successful.

I thought they've resolved the issue.

So, I decided to skip lectures today and hurry to the bank only to be told that they will need to take the documents to Lagos and so it'll take some time.

So right now, my money is locked away in the bank till further notice.

I've been relying on my roommate for food and everything in between since the beginning of this wahala.

But this economy no be wetin person suppose dey carry another person for head o. He has been trying but Kai, I just wish things are different.

Please if you get any online work wey I fit help you do, abeg let me know.

I can do flyer design. Website development. Writing. Etc.

Anything you can outsource, please do. I really need some money for essentials till I resolve this issue.

I just finish from class group studies with hunger now and thought I should reach out.

So God will give you 100k, so you can pay him 10k?

Doesn't that sound like those telegram yahoo boys that ask you to deposit 10k to get 20k in one hour?

The devil ask Jesus to turn stone into bread and Jesus rebuked him.

The same Jesus today is turning your stones into bread for you. Yet you think you're listening to the right messages?

Stop the transactional relationship with God. Paul never collected tithes.

Give as you can in your capacity to God without expecting anything from it. God loves a cheerful giver.

Not a giver that gives and expect God to say "This is a prank, I'm just testing you to see if you can give. Since you pass the test, let me double or triple the amount for you"

God is not a skit maker on tiktok.

Try cook two samples of food.

Sample A: only salt with the other ingredients. No maggi

Sample B: only Maggi with the other ingredients. No salt

Now sit down and taste the two samples.

At least no be everything you go wait to hear from people mouth. Do the experiment yourself.

I always come across Nigerians insulting Nigerian themselves and it really wonder me sometimes.

They say all manner of things like they are not part of the country people they are insulting.

Same way they also insult the black man like they are white.

I mean sometimes when you see them insulting black man, you'd thought they are white people behind the username.

I don't know what you try to accomplish but so long as you are a Nigerian or an African and you insult the country or the continent, it doesn't make you "sophisticated" or "different".
