You all are saying Ali Express, now good are they? Hope ones doesn't get a refurbish phone from those sellers?

Aliexpress is very safe. Just make sure you buy from sellers with high number of orders so that you can read enough reviews before buying. I don't think Samsung phones are sold on aliexpress sha, just the accessories.

Uhmm.. That marriage cannot remain the same. The trust is gone. Forgiving is easy, forgetting is the hard part. I asked my man the one thing i will do to him that he can never forgive, he told me it was cheating. That it's not as if he cannot forgive me, but he would never look at me with deep affection and desire, like he used to. That no matter how he tries to even get intimate, he would imagine me with the other man all over again. So i guess that's why most men would rather let a cheating woman go.

All you did here was prove my point.

He used his financial prowess to lure and hold my poor client under false imprisonment and then raped her severly.

hahaha.. I give up on you. So she don be your client now now?lol

I wish you luck in Court. You will need lots of it.

legitnow:
Summation is given after the presentation of evidence.
That was just a mock closing argument from the prosecution.

Well "mock" is the key word. Again in practice, courts in Nigeria don't allow u to give opening and closing argument/statements like they do abroad. You can only adumbrate on issues in your final written address, and you have just a few minutes. Some judges won't even let u do that. You would just adopt your written address as you final arguments in the case, and the court adjourns for u judgment.

legitnow:
Are u a lawyer?

That was y we concluded by reminding the Judge of the main elements.

During Criminal Litigation, we make case presentation and as the Examination in Chief, we review the defendant character profile.

Yes i am a lawyer who just resigned my job with a firm that is a household name for criminal matters. The character profile of parties has no bearing in the trial of a case. It only comes in handy when you are making a plea of allocutus. All that talk isn't a fact that can prove rape! Even if a nun is claiming rape, it won't blind the court from examining the cold facts of the case with regards to whether the offence has been proved sufficiently beyond reasonable doubt.

legitnow:
In response, i did tell the court, that the predator lured my client into false imprisonment, after promising to take her shopping.
There were no concurrence of will and their relationship was purely platonic.

My client barely knew the defendant and was on a mission of getting to know the friend she had met over the internet.
Whilst my client was honest in her representation to the defendant, the same cannot be said for the defendant.

Throughout their interaction the defendant had made several misleading statement in his plot to lure the young and impressionable lady into false imprisonment.

He lied about his marital status.

My client is a decent lady from a respectable family with respect for family value and holy matrimony.
She had no intention to sleep with a married man but had exhausted the little money she had on transportation to meet the defendant who had mislead her through various forms of fraudulent misrepresentation.

A true friendship is based on honesty and truth, and had the defenadnt been honest about who he is and his marital status, my client wont have exhausted her finances on a journey to meet him.

My lord, my client is merely a victim of his fraudulent claims and deception. The defendant has a long standing history of luring women of working class background into false imprisonment and then rapping them. Thereafter, he takes them shopping to deter them from bring action for the offence of rape.

The mens rae element is intention and clearly the defendant has admitted that he had sexual intention.

The actus reus element is penetration without consent and evidently in my client testimony, he inserted his penis into her virgina and raped her serevely without the consent of my client.

My Lord, the defendant should be prosecuted for the offence he had committed.

I rest my case.

All that would be just entertaining the court, the main issue is to prove all the elements of the offence of rape. The judge may not record most of all u said because it has no bearing on the case for rape. What is your definition of false imprisonment? Didn't she admit to going to swim and shopping trips after the act? Their relationship was platonic yet they were exchanging nudes? What mission of getting to know a friend, that would make her leave her comfort zone to see a total stranger that could even be a murderer? Oga she never spent her own money, he booked a flight for her! So she never went with any money that got exhausted.

DWJOBScom:
She will win the case

i may not be able to beautifully come up with an analysis as good as yours BUT i think she will win.
We must do something about rape and the girl child.

You forgot she wasn't aware HE was married

Oga,she won't win the case. The man is not on trial for adultery, that is not a criminal offence. What concerns the court whether she was lied to?What the court will look at is if the prosecution can prove the elements of the offence of rape beyond reasonable doubt.

DWJOBScom:
She can still win the case and yes send the man to prison.

She will have to bear a lot of stigma as there's going to be a division on both sides(support for and against her plight)

It's simple
i. She can't leave the hotel room as the man holds the transportation back and remember she said she doesn't know anyone in ABUJA making it impossible for her to knock him off.
ii. She never knew the man was married and if she can provide an evidence where she kept asking , that will be taken.
iii. The man still loves and respects his marriage enough not tell his wife the truth of his location so she should sue and will definitely reveal a rogue husband and if she's for compensation should settle out of court.
iv. She said NO and that's the mute word and evidence from virginal injuries can be taken.

The truth remains that the man wasn't honest and the lady was clearly in love so i won't call her a prostitute as the popular chorus out there. I also think the lawyer is not competent or probably has his hands full

Bros i am a lawyer, though I just quit legal practice this month. I worked with a firm that is renowned in Criminal defence(My former boss got Al Mustapha his freedom upon appeal.. Google will reveal his name to you ). So you can imagine the legal exposure I got whilst working there.Asides that, my final year long essay was on the offence of rape so it's a legal issue i can authoritatively talk about.
.
She cannot win this case.Firstly, no where did she say the man locked her indoors or kept her against her will. She had free entry and exit so much that she wad going to the hotel poolside. If she was deeply convinced that she just suffered rape, what immediate steps did she take to leave the hotel? Did she go to a hospital? Rape case cannot survive on the mere allegation of "I told him no, yet he forced himself". The law and Courts do not give judgment based on emotions, you need evidence to verify the cold hard facts!Did she call for help? Her phone was with her, did she open up to a family member or anyone?Can she say nobody would have been able to give her fare back home?
.
I have handled a case where after the incident the guy opened the door and the lady ran out half naked, crying. That was how the guy wad apprehended.A good Samaritan took her to a General hospital and yes we won the case!Secondly,the fact that the man is married doesn't change anything. Most wives know their husbands are not faithful. Infact in most cases the wife would appear with the husband in court till judgement is delivered! Even if she decides to divorce him afterwards, do you imagine she would want her husband to go to jail? Thirdly there is no financial compensation for rape victims... The only justice you get is seeing the accused behind bars. Lastly, whatever evidence of vagina injuries she had has already been compromised due to lapse of time. A medical examination is recommended immediately after the incident, that way the doctor can get proof of semen, blood from the bruises caused by forced entry. You can't win a rape case without a valid medical report corroborating your case!

djeezy:
As a lawyer her rape claim is weak. Save facts are twisted. I don't want to say much. In law we don't just look at express consent. We have implied consent too and all her actions can be construed as implied. It could have made a lot of difference if she had reported to the police when she was first raped. Instead she stayed all through and even went shopping with the said rapist. Like seriously that dumb. If she's being cross examined she will shed tears. Why are you in the hotel room? How many days did you stay? You had the chance to leAve but u didn't? You went shopping after the rape with the assailant? Did you report to the police? Where is your doctors report,? Do you have corroboration? Why did you exchange nude pics with the accused? What did you do when you found out he was married? Before now have you ever discussed having sex with the man, which you did discuss. Weak case. Mt chew. Lalas247 come and see o.

lol... These your cross examination questions will even be giving her time to think and explain. If she meets someone like me, my boss or any lawyer that had worked with him, after the cross-examination she would not hesitate to withdraw her case against the man. In my firm, we ask closed questions couched in a way that you would even unknowingly implicate yourself. She should not bother suing else she would be slaughtered in Court. Most lawyers have zero chill!

This her case would be hard to win!The girl is very stupiiiidddd. So you travelled to go see a stranger without carrying any money.. Not even money to bring u back home? The man kept on raping you but she had energy to leave the hotel room to the pool side? Chilling things i guess. What stops her from calling any family member or friend to send her money. Even if its a loan, so she can get on the next bus to ph. These people should stop throwing the word "rape" around please! I no wan vex this morning. He raped you but took you shopping and you picked stuffs!Wawu. From a legal point of view, this case is dead on arrival! She clearly consented impliedly because at no point in time was she under false imprisonment. She could have left at any time!

MadamSpice:
Good morning my people,

I just wanted to share my experience from buying hair on instagram and how I was scammed
So I bought weave from a seller on instagram called @gleevirginhair @mummyglee
The hair I bought was Vidia baby which was supposedly the best quality for a total of £245 including postage. N102k+ N8k shipping+ £4.55 dhl fee
First of all, she didn’t let me know I’ll be incurring an additional £5 for shipping which upset me cause I thought N8k covered everything but whatever I paid it.
Basically, long story short she sent me something that feels like fibre hair and refused to give me a refund. She then immediately went on to block me meaning she intentionally sent me fake hair.
The hair sheds like silly. Literally do not understand how ‘human double drawn hair’ can shed so badly and feel synthetic.
This is literally my worst vendor experience. Anyway this is an advice for anyone thinking of buying. Don’t! She is ripping people off selling fake quality hair and advertising falsely

Just don’t want anyone else to fall victim to her scam. It’s not right! People work hard for their money

Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Share your story please to help others from being victim to fake Instagram sellers.

Madam, sorry about your experience. It's really sad that she didn't even offer any compensation or even an apology. Blocking a client is very inhumane. If the hair is human hair at all, u can go have it treated. Hopefully u can salvage whatever is left of it so your money doesn't waste totally.

emmadiva:
Most of hair sellers in Instagram mix their hairs ..I too have had bad experiences ..I am not trying to advertise here.. I think you should try Queenzhairsandwig on Instagram and she is on nairaland ..her hairs are original and cheap.. I've patronised her for almost a year and no regret

Sweetie, thanks a lot! Na God do am.. Anywhere someone fixes my hair to, a friend or someone random will ask for my contact. Many sellers sell hair because they like the biz,for me it's a passion that i have had since 2012.So before i import any hair, i ask the right questions and do my due diligence to ensure i am bringing in a good grade hair that won't spoil business for me.

acme6:
Yea, Queenfav hair has quality.

I just dey wake see mentions.. Thanks babes *kisses!Errm, have you bought your xmas and new year hair? See eh u people will tire for me o, I have emptied my account to import hair. If na to enter BRT bus for lagos, start to shout "come and buy human hair!!!" .. Lol.... I will do it so long as 90% of my stock goes before January 1st. So biko come and buy hair o.

Kpele bros. That's why i order gadgets from aliexpress. Even though leeco x626 phone was on sale on jumia for 38k, i still preferred aliexpress and ordered it at 40k. When you buy there from a premium rated seller, you have peace of mind, plus aliexpress buyer protection.
.
That's why Nigeria cannot be great, what stops jumia from connecting you with the seller?It's quite sad though, take heart. Recently i ordered wedding rings from a jewelry shop on aliexpress. When it arrived (took two weeks and some days), one wasn't a size 8 it was a 7(too small for my finger) .I quickly sent the seller a message, with pictures showing the difference in size for both rings sent.
.

He told me shipping is expensive so tthey can give me a replacement if I make a small order, so both can be shipped together, or they can give me a discount voucher .I loved that ring and need it badly for my wedding, so I ended up buying two more rings and seller agreed to ship them with the ring that was too small. I even got to keep the small ring, and still they are sending me another with a gift for my patronage .
.

That's how it should be, see how they made amends that at the end of the day, everyone goes home happy!If na konga or jumia that money don go o. They would never offer to compensate you in any way! The day i read the terms and conditions for jumia overseas shipping policy, i knew it would be a big mistake to order anything ..
.

Anyways, try to get the phone fixed from these independent phone repairers. It is well!

Happy married life

This is true love.. May God bless their union!

Hahahahaaha... Where the disgrace. Me that wore heels that day. I hear whiin! My seat was in front.. I pulled my shoe, one oversabi lecturer in lagos campus asked me to wear it back. Plus hunger and the frustration of the Abuja sun that finished me while waiting outside ICC gate. I no just get chill at all. I no blame who sleep biko.

Who is comparing an ekuke with a Rottweiler?

If you must compare, do it with S3 and Phantom 8.

Or phantom 8 with my infinix hot 4.

hahahahahahaaha, damn!

Please it's an insult to compare Samsung s8 edge to tecno. End of story!

mmsen:
I don't know where OP decided that things are cheap or value for money in Ghana - they are not.

Everything costs at least 50% more in Ghana.

Medicine that costs 1500 in Nigeria costs the equivalent of 10k in Ghana. Even the price at MMIA is cheaper.

Even Ghanaian kente cloth is cheaper in Lagos than Accra.

Electricity tariffs are at least double.

Water costs more. The food that your gateman will buy costs three to four times as much as what your gateman will pay in Nigeria.

And they don't have 24 hours electricity, the situation is better than Nigeria but they do have to run generator for roughly 10 hours a week, probably more during the dry season.

What I do like is that driving in Ghana is calmer but again, Accra does not have as many good roads as Abuja, Lagos, Kano or even somewhere like Calabar or Uyo. Which means that while there are fewer cars the traffic can become a real nuisance, especially on Liberation Road and Spintex.

Hahahahaha you are right o. I just no get power to type. When i went during Easter, I visited mokola Market, the kente I saw was 1500 per yard. It wasn't even a quality ankara. My aunt told me to chill and buy at Laconji border.. Na there i finally buy, nice ones of 4-6 yards for 3-5k..Food is expensive also, even inside at shoprite! Plus their cuisines are not it at all. I only enjoyed one drink called 5 fingers. A friend took me to a spot at labadi area to have that with chicken wings and shitor.I visited Labadi Beach near my hotel, it was so dirty and crowded.I had to leave earlier than I planned. The roads from Labadi area to the mall and even circle were quite good with beautiful scenery. Maybe because i travelled alone. Next trip is to a beach resort in Gambia!

omoelerin1:
Ghana is now a city.

It was an error pls. Thanks for the subtle correction. Also TemmyTee82.

Accra is very beautiful, though an expensive city! You didn't go to the malls @op?
