This is personal so please be courteous with your comments.

I have a married female cousin who takes church serious more than her life, well I don't wanna waste your time with that part of the story.

I have tried to help her husband and her financially for a long time now and I'm afraid I've turned from helper to head of household, not funny. I jokingly told them to hang their boots after they had their fourth child but as I'm typing this, baby five just landed.

Their first son just got admitted into Unilag and guess who they called to help. I've severally decided to stop helping but thoughts of those lovely kids of theirs have always affected my decisions.

I told the newly college admitted boy to open a bank account so that I can channel my help properly but her mum said he wasn't 18 yet so she would be the one running the account until then.

A little background story.

My cousin is a graduate but helps her husband in an imaginary business of his which I have put in like N10m if not more yet nothing to show for it. I later switched to helping my cousin get a job, she ended up getting duped of the money meant to pursue the job Nigerianly.

She was/is my favourite cousin growing up and she was more than a nanny to my sister and I when we were little.

How can I put an end to this madness without feeling guilty about the kids? Mind you, I love their kids very much.

They are blackmailing you emotional

The love for the good and expensive life has driven most ladies into wanting everything luxury. They want to live in beautiful mansions in posh areas, they want to ride in nice cars, eat good food, use expensive gadgets, buy expensive dresses and wear expensive make ups and hairs etc. This pushes them to move towards persons who they feel can provide all these and sometimes hurting the ones who can’t. Hence the notion that ladies love money.

However there are ladies out there who do not really care about the financial security a man has to offer. This set of ladies are not limited only to the rich ones but even the broke ones. There are broke expossed girls who are not moved by life and all of its luxuries and flaunting it just to get them to notice you is a deal breaker for them. Yes! they exist. There are ladies who are looking for simplicity, honesty and love. All they want is someone who will show them love and care, shower them with attention and affection and stick with them no matter their flaws.

Everyone loves money and everybody needs money, however, not all ladies you come across are so impressed by cash and luxury. Even if they may desire it, not every lady makes it a deal breaker. Women also need love and affection, attention and quality time. Sometimes a simple compliment or gesture is all that is needed to kick things off. That lady you see around looking all sexy and serious, just say hi and let her know she looks beautiful, tell her the shoes are pretty, offer to get her a pack of pop corn and you might just be surprised how things will roll.

Purge that mentality of “all women love money” and all they want and care for is cash. You will be spending a lot of money on women and attracting the wrong ones. All men love money too, everybody does. We all want the good life and financial security, stop picking on the ladies.

Look for someone around in the same locality with them that you trust. Let that person handle the 'trust fund' and administer it appropriately.
If you want to help, you must find a way. Please help the kids since you have the means, kids should not have to suffer because their parents are irresponsible.

But we go ahead encouraging marriage and child bearing as the Hallmark for living a better life

Just about yesterday after speaking with my Class advicer, I was left in a depressed state.

I am currently on my 400level IT and I am to return back to school this coming new year by January. He told me about my result. He said my CGPA is the highest so far. Which makes me his best student. I asked him for the exact CGPA which he replied with with a *4.06*. My God I wondered why he was glad to break such a sad news to me. I thought I had chances of making it a 4.1+ the previous semester. I told him thanks. But I know I wasn't Happy

I did the maths...and I found out that the highest CGPA I can make is 4.2+ after my final year(2 semesters left) I feel terrible right now. How can I shift it to 4.3+ Cgpa? I have heard of students borrowing courses but I don't really know if this could be one of their reasons for doing such.


NB: I am not in anyway trying to make it look like having such a CGPA is bad or I am ungrateful. It's just that I have plans of applying for scholarships to study abroad but won't such a Gp hinder me?

Pls I need someone to placate me with motivational words. I feel like a looser. After all these years of studies! What if I loose the passion for school or studies after returning next year? I feel real bad

What if I might even loose the chance of being the best graduating student of my set like my class adviser had said

You are not ready for life

By Ike Uchechukwu

Cross River state governor, Prof Ben Ayade has presented the 2020 budget estimate of 1.1trillion naira tagged budget of “Olimpotic Meristemasis” to the State House of Assembly.
Ayade has also abolished payment of tax by small scale entrepreneurs like barbing saloon, welders, stylists amongst others.
According to him, he would rather tax his brain than tax the people, so no more daily payment of N500 by Okada riders and taxis but they will now pay 1000 and 2000 monthly for Okada and taxis respectively adding that all civil servants whose salaries were below 100,000 naira were also exempted from paying tax.

Presenting the budget on Thursday on the floor of the State House of Assembly, Ayade said all low income earning people in the state were hereby exempted from taxes including civil servants whose salaries were less than 100,000 naira as well as stylish, saloon operators, welders and more.
His words: “All low-income earners are hereby exempted from taxes, including civil servants who salaries are below 100,000 nairas.

“The budget is an audacious step towards reducing recurrent expenditure and focus on increasing capital expenditure with Capital expenditure standing at 911 billion while recurrent stands at 188 billion which is 82.8% and 17.2 % respectively.
“Nigerians must realise that any state whose budget is driven by the envelop size has limited vision. There are two ways budgets are derived in business or public sector management, it is either as an expression of ambition or an expression of your envelope size.

“The expression of the ambition of the progressive agenda set for Cross River does not allow me the agony to adopt an envelope size budget. The value of our projects have not been commoditised into value , with the intellectual capacity we have reduced a lot of waste,” he said.

Hello nairalanders...

I don't know if this is the right place but I am scared and depressed...A lot of stuff and changes have been happening recently in my office .i have seen my colleagues playing office politics and how aggressive the result came out ....now someone just played that politics with me and i heard i have been transferred to the post of a supervisor....oh lawwd,this is my first leadership role...i am scared,i am way to friendly too open,a talkative,these stuff have been used against me in the past..i have read 48 laws of power and i am finding it hard to use those rules...people i have trusted at work do their stuff behind me without uttering a word,i start seeing results and i am get caught in the middle of nowhere.

How do i cope with this office politics,how do you guys working in corporate organisation cope without loosing friends or making foes??

.

I feel your pain. As I am currently involved in what office politics is about.

First you must know that office politics is healthy for an organization that wants to be competitive and stay strong in its domain. But when mediocrity enters the foray it becomes toxic.

Politics is interest.
When in the office settings. 3 interest are pronounced.
The company interest.
Your supervisor interest.
Your personal interest.

The greatest among them should be your interest.

Check the ethnic background.
Educational qualification.
Religious affiliation.
Gender .

If you promotion is vertical then you will have a lot of disgruntled element.

I will suggested you use the carrot and stick approach.

Give your enemies more clue as to what you have in mind just make sure you have a plan B that is better than your plan A.
Maybe more scenarios will be needed.

Bello Muhammad Matawalle of Zamfara state said his government would soon enact a capital punishment law against the desecration of the holy Qur’an in the state.

The Governor made this known while receiving a report from the committee for the review of activities of the State Ministry of Religious Affairs, religious Commissions and committees under the leadership of the former State Deputy Governor, Mallam Ibrahim Wakkala Muhammad.

Matawalle said he had remained sad with the way some people perpetrate the unholy act of desecration of the holy Qur’an in the state.

He explained that to bring an end to the unholy act, his government would soon enact capital punishment laws in the State that would deal with all related offences.

He added that Shariah court judges would also be under careful watch in the way and manner they handled such cases as serious punitive measures would be applied on any erring judge for the purpose of discipline as no amount of punishment would be too severe on such judges or the offenders.

Matawalle also appealed to Islamic scholars in the state to sensitize people on the importance of peace, unity and love for one another for the purpose of having a purified society that is free from all crimes.

Matawalle also reminded people of the State on the importance of repenting from such sins and return to Almighty Allah.

Earlier, the Chairman of the committee Mallam Ibrahim Wakkala Called for the renaming of the State Ulama Consultative Council (UCC) to Zamfara State Fatwah Council with a chairman that would be called Mufti of the State.

He also said there was need for the government to review the existing laws where competent Ulamas who are knowledgeable in Islamic jurisprudence, reputable and upright in character with adequate exposure on contemporary issues to serve as members of the Mufti Council.

Wakkala committee also advised the government to continue with its laudable policies of economic growth, poverty alleviation and fight against insecurity for greater success and acceptability in the state.

The presentation of the report was attended by the Secretary to the Zamfara State Government, Alhaji Bala Bello Maru, Head of Service, Alhaji Kabiru Balarabe, Honourary Adviser to the Governor, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda and Permanent Secretary Government House Alhaji Lawali Ibrahim Kaura among others.

4. Anambra State
Anambra is a state in southeastern Nigeria. Its name was inspired by one of its Northern and riverine clans Anam but merged with “branch”.

Language spoken: Igala and Igbo are the major languages of Anambra state



Please and please Igala is not a language in anambra state, let alone been a major language.

There is nothing like Igala language in anambra state pls.

Your uneducation is alarming.

like serious.
Encouraging mannerless and rude such as tacha behaviour is now beneficial. What happen to her starting or encouraging 50 women biz with 1 million each, who in turn will create jobs for 10 women. Female empowerment is a ruse women use to scam themselves

saaron:
That's the difference between federalism and feeding bottle parasitism.
While United States operate federalism where each constituent state in the union have total control over their economic resources (economic activities and revenue generation and pay tax to the centre) and develop at their own pace, Nigeria operates a feeding bottle program where every state is handicaped to control of economic activities and recources in their areas and made to congregrate every month in Abuja for monthly allocation. This explains the absence of creativity and productivity considering the monthly flow of free oil money. Take away monthly allocation and 90 percent of states in Nigeria will die a natural death.

It will interest some people to know that states in America have;
- Their own supreme courts.
- They have their own state polic force (notably NYPD - Newyork Police Department).
- They own all natural recources domicile in their states.
The productivity and economic advancement of America was not by accident, they were made possible by cardinal principles vested on their states as listed above.

Buekor Nyornebari Grace, a first class graduate of Applied and Environmental Biology (Microbiology Option) at the Rivers State University of Science and Technology, UST has cried out to the Governor of the state, Nyesom Wike to come to her aid in securing employment at the University.

The 2016 first class graduate who is also an indigene of the state graduated with a CGPA of 4.95 and is supposed to work as an assistant lecturer based on her status as first class graduates before her were usually retained but Grace's case seems to be peculiar as she is not been that lucky.

According to Jonathan Oyim, a colleague of her at UST, she has been knocking on doors of opportunities but these are not opening since their convocation on 1st April 2017.

Below are her transcript:

"On the day of the convocation, when the governor came, he didn't make any pronouncement because there was embargo on recruitment in Rivers State" Jonathan said.

"That convocation produced 5 first class students in the full school of which 3 are non Rivers indigenes while only 2 are Rivers and she was the best graduating student for the year" he continued.

"During service, she started making moves on how the process of retaining will be but she was told to hold on due to the embargo that was on and she should pray that the governor uplifts it so the process can commence" Jonathan concluded.

It would be recalled that Buekor Nyornebari Grace was among the 7 students awarded in 2014 with a laptop for their academic excellence after her Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) at 100-Level was 5.00 in 100 level scoring As all through.

Currently, Grace is teaching in a primary school and earning ₦18000.

As shared by Suleiman.....

'A few weeks back I found these two kids hawking Mazarkwaila (sugar cake sort of) on the street of Kofan Doka in Zaria. Looking at their ages, I had to park and walked to the other lane in order to catch up with them, as I was driving on the opposite lane. I stopped them and requested to know their area of residence, name of their parents and their own names.

They were able to answer all the questions satisfactorily except the first question. They were able to give the name of their area of residence without giving a hint on how to locate their house, as they are too young to do that. I further asked how much is the value of the whole Mazarkwaila being carried by the boy (as depicted in the photo below), surprizingly the value was 2500 naira only. I nearly shed tears looking at the money vis-a-vis the risk they were being exposed to. I gave them 3000 naira and told them to go back home.

Thereafter, I placed a phone call to someone I know that lives in the same area with them and told him that I will send some photos to his watsapp and that he should help me locate the parents of those kids.

Happily the man (Audun Durimi) called back a day after to say that he was able to locate them. He sent the phone number of their father to me. I called the father and put some reasonable words regarding the ills of street hawking on children and he completely agreed with my submission. I asked him why are his children not going to school, he said he had to remove them because of his economic situation. I requested for his permission to enrol them, he outrighly accepted.

I am happy to inform you that, today I enrolled Aisha and Isah into the ZEDA model schools. It is a new school that will start operation tomorrow Monday. Aisha and Isah will be part of the pioneer students of this school established by the Zaria Education Development Authority. Their mother is the one standing first from right. May Allah bless these kids, may Allah see them through. I am so happy today. Alhamdullilah'
