No, the details of each state is not. I wanted a first hand experience maybe. It's even strange to the officials themselves. But I had to be careful so I don't get cheated.
It is not necessary pls. The freelance company already compute its tax. You also pay tax in different forms. You don't own a business. If you need a tax document for something, it is best to register a business. Clearly, your question should have been how to register a company.

BoldBrainz:
For a freelancer, you sound like too much of a proper dunce.

For you not to know that almost every item you buy in the nigerian markets is properly taxed and you pay all of it, leaves questions as to how you attained the standard of being referred to as a freelancer.. huh
Fr bro. You sound harsh but it is the truth. If you spend so much time online, knowing these things should not be difficult. But it is wat it is anyway.

Education › Re: Why Do Some School Teachers Sleep With Students? by rayopt(m): 8:11pm On Dec 04, 2023
nairalanda1:
Even then, a teacher should not sleep with his student, whether she sabi or not.

He is there to teach her, not to have sex with her. That is what he is paid for...teaching,
Nothing in my post suggest otherwise. Your point is valid and since you obviously missed my point, I will restate it again. Let's also focus on the total upbringing — the environment and the parents. Don't just call out teachers when you have failed as a parent, brother, sister, aunt, or uncle.

How do you cope when female students are the one begging for it

Uncle I want to know your house
Some even go ahead and write love letters

It takes God grace to overcome challenges like this.. it's not easy especially when you're single.

Men are moved by what they see
When I say these things some people will think I am lying. Well, here you have it. Especially in those mushroom schools. Some young girls below 15 even sabi pass the teacher. I don't understand why yall fixated on the teacher when these kids have parents? Do you even think some of those parents care? No, they don't.

Some of yall are really daft. Who told you that Tinubu can't explain his source of wealth? E-diots. This is how yall chase useless cases in courts with media info.

If you like enter street with untold wealth and no form of online or offline employment, na prison u go sleep. Dey deceive yourself

Another stupid e-diot is asking police to arrest people that can't explain their poverty. Education is really failed in Nigeria because wtf is all these narratives?

Do anybody has to anything to be poor?

You will find one between 250k and 400k depending on ur taste. This is also the same price for room and parlor in Ilorin. Compared to Lagos, this is cheap.

Yall quoting me on Abeokuta are funny. Abk is definitely not on Lagos level but you will find some clubs to go at night if you av the cash. And rent is cheap. Is that not what @op asked for?
Travel › Re: Which State In Nigeria Is Cheap And Safe To Live In With Nightlife? by rayopt(m): 8:25pm On Nov 23, 2023
In terms of low rent and nightlife, Ilorin and Abeokuta is moderate compared to Lagos.

Personally, I don't recommend dating for poor guys. It is equally wrong for rich guys to remain loyal to one broke girl. Yes, let the poor man remain alone until he is rich. When he is rich, use as many broke ladies as you can. Make everywhere scatter.

Yea, you know the history. That's why I wasn't surprised and did not bother to read the news about their feud. It's normal Rivers politics.

The funny thing about this one is that there is no clear position for any of them. If LP or NNPP is smart, they should woo Fubara over. But, I still don't know how that will work for him sha.

I just dey laff. Tinubu don hack the Nigerian mindset with media. Just give Nigerians something to always speculate and banter with and they will be fine.

This kinda news has been since 2019 yet he is president today. It won't end and Nigerians will keep falling for it. My own question is: shey na like this we go dash dz man second term? Lol

It is ridiculous atp. I still maintain that Hundeyin, PG, and the media houses work for Tinubu sha. But una go say na conspiracy theory. Koburu. Make una dey feast on nonsense news.

Call someone you know living in RCCG camp and you will find out it is dirt cheap. A whole house with fridge, television and AC might not spend five thousand naira per month. What can be expensive is if you do it for only one home
Bro, I left Mission House last year. I know how cheap it is but coman see people's reaction last year when they increased it a lil. You would think it was that expensive than buying fuel. Some of them are even bypassing the electricity without paying. Even pastors ooo. That is why I say most Nigerians can't afford good governance. Because any small hike, na wahala.

You will see some ediots hailing this one for telling us what we already know. That's how fashola brag and brag until dey gave him minister spot. Where is the 24/7 electricity now? Tueh

Of course, we all know it can be done. RCCG and some church-owned communities are doing it. I am doing it in my house and it is not cheap. I keep saying this that most Nigerians can't afford the good governance.

There is a new law that allows states to generate their own power. Oga professor, goan do it in your state or area if it is that cheap. No kon disturb us with your okoto meow. We don taya.

And if truly you learned Redpill lessons and you are high-valued, your gf still won't leave you. Continue simping brother.

Christianity Etc › Re: Does Being Born Again Mean I Am Free From Sin And Immunized Against Sinning? by rayopt(m): 10:27am On Aug 13, 2023
litigator:
This is one area of our Biblical journey we often shy away from talking about.

I am certain I am not alone in this regard.

How does it feel if at 9. am on a Sunday morning, I come out for an altar call after a powerful heart-shattering and guilt-provoking sermon, give my life to Christ; I am prayed for and declare born again, but I unconsciously commit a sin on my way back home?

And with that guilt, I go back to sin full time like it was before the alter call?

I guess I am not alone in this regard. I have attended church services countless times and listened to sermons and teachings that I can't recollect, and at the end of such endeavour, I obey the alter call one minute, and the next minute, I am back to fornicating. This is one thing that has kept a lot of people out of this spiritual journey.

Even Pastors are not immune to sin, as some have found themselves committing sin at one point or the other. I guess Apostle Paul suffered same in the Bible. And this brings me to my question.


Does being again make you immune to sin, and is it a vaccine against sinning?

Is it that if I sin, it will no longer count against me because I have Grace?

Or is it a merry-go-round of sinning and asking for forgiveness shortly afterwards until we get better at not sinning anymore?

And if the latter is the case, why do churches hate and guilt-shame members when they sin but defend pastors when they do the same?
Before I answer your questions in a simple way, please always keep in mind the religion is responsible for making these things as difficult as it seems.

For instance, someone gave you a good answer. You should question the argument not bother about which religious clique he/she belongs to.

Back to your questions. From my own perspective so far,

1. Does being again make you immune to sin, and is it a vaccine against sinning?
No. Your spirit got saved and born again. Your body will always be your body and will never be saved; the body will suffer all the consequences of past and previous sins on earth and will perish in the same earth.

Being born again is not a vaccine from sin. As long as your body remains in this world, you will continue to sin one way of the other. Everybody sins. God doesn't weigh sins. Nobody has the right to judge or forgive someone's sin. We are all the same before God.

What Born Again does is to give you a brand new spirit. I wish I can break this down to you but good luck to your understanding.



2. Is it that if I sin, it will no longer count against me because I have Grace?

When you sin, realize your wrong by confessing your sins and ask for forgiveness. That is what grace requires. Your body will suffer the consequences of your sin on earth. But grace allows you to get back to God anytime. You sef forgive yourself once you realize your wrongs and stop feeling guilty.

There is no immunity to sin as long as you are alive. If you want to continue in sin and always bank on grace, you dey whine yourself thinking you are whinnin God. Realization and Confession of sin is the first sign of God's grace on your life. If these two things are missing, forget it. Oya sope otilor.



3. Or is it a merry-go-round of sinning and asking for forgiveness shortly afterwards until we get better at not sinning anymore?

Like I said, you just deceiving if you keep enjoying your sins and claiming grace religiously. Naturally, every new born Christian is expected to continue in their old ways. Grace allows you to see your wrongs and work towards correcting it permanently.

If grace helps you to stop sinning permanently, that's a good thing. But remember, Grace will not stop you from suffering the consequences of every sin while you are on earth. The world is still suffering from man's first sin.


4. And if the latter is the case, why do churches hate and guilt-shame members when they sin but defend pastors when they do the same?

Well, this is always the tricky question. Men will be men. All the affairs in churches are not different from other social circles and that's all I have to say on that.

Before you ask, I am not a religious person. I lived in a Christian home and have studied up to two religions. I believe God is God and the different religions are God speaking in different languages. Na my own be that.
