Dumbest move ever! Talk about bad timing !!! How do you justify a 300 % increase . A sane man would have said a 300% over 5 years. Civil servants are reading this especially at this time . Don’t you think for once they will refer to this if they don’t get what they think they deserve ?
RomanceRe: How Do I Deal With Her!!! by rickleye: 7:59am On Jun 06, 2024
Crucialgem:
You would agree with me that even all this nairalanders shouting repeller will simp for a girl that captures their heart.

So I recently met this girl which at first did not think will capture my heart up to this extent but after exchanging contact and constant calling and visiting, guys I have fallen yakata for her, even though I try following redpill teachings on nairaland but I can't help it this time around

Funny thing is after talking and vibing so well she will tell me she has a boyfriend, but she still come visiting time to time, she will even eat and watch movie in my house sometimes she will bring her younger sister

She shows me signs of caring girlfriend but always quick to remind me she has a boyfriend

I am confused and at the same time blinded by her affection, i feel she is using me but sometimes I feel she is just playing me

How do I go about dealing with this kind of girl romancelanders!!!!
Not sure I understand
- she said she has a boyfriend yet you fell for her !!
Either you mandate that she break off with the other fellow or you define that whatever you two have is a fling and nothing more. So, as she has a boyfriend, you are free to see other girls.
PoliticsRe: Minimum Wage: Finance Minister Submits Template To Tinubu Today by rickleye: 7:55am On Jun 06, 2024
TUTU147:
Remove police from contributing pension, make house accessible for workers, give free education to workers children,free transport to and fro, provide security for all, give us constant light, reduce the price of commodity and 100k will be ok for us.No be to approve 100k where by I end up spending 300k a month for feeding and other stuff.
What are talking about ? Who can you stop people from contributing pension. ? You need to create additional ways to encourage people to save more outside of pension like RRSP retirement savings vehicle.
If you want 100 k then no free education , goods and services will increase .
PoliticsRe: Minimum Wage: Finance Minister Submits Template To Tinubu Today by rickleye: 7:52am On Jun 06, 2024
[quote author=emmabest2000 post=130329267][/quote]You can’t increase to more than 50K,
Where is the money coming from to pay the jump from where it is to almost 500k ? Plus this ramifications cuts across private companies as well.
And when you put that purchasing power into the hands of people ( insert Nigerians ) who don’t save money but rather spend you will create hyper inflation. Cause sellers will increase the value of goods and services.
Increase MW but also increase tax deduction at source and also create ways to encourage people to save money.
Anyways what do I know ?

PoliticsRe: Labour Vows To Reject Meagre Addition To ₦60,000 As Minimum Wage by rickleye: 11:53pm On Jun 04, 2024
It is insane to boost the minimum wage without curbing inflation . Tighten government spending . You want to put more money in circulation , goods and services will increase.
Do we think the white man and economist are stupid ? They wrote the books we learn from yet we want to reinvent the wheel.
Anyways, what do I know ?
Christianity EtcRe: Why Didn't God Tell Pastor Enenche About Osinachi's Situation? by rickleye: 11:47pm On Jun 04, 2024
Ken4Christ:
There is nothing wrong in having churches even in every compound but standards must not be comprised. The Pastor's sent must be a genuine Pastor and he must preach and teach God's word without compromise.
We may agree to disagree.
Do we really need a church in every nook and corner. ? If that church can open their doors to the poor in our society , give out food and restore hope - Maybe, but a lot of those churches are not structurally sound and are itself needy. It’s like having POS. POS are as a result of institutional failure. They should not exist . I like the Anglican set up .
In any case - if God has given daddy GO the mandate who am I to criticize.
PoliticsRe: Soludo Buys Innoson 2024 executive model Suv, This Is Awesome by rickleye: 11:19am On Jun 04, 2024
Ezewuzie01:
This is good but Innoson should produce brands that the general public can afford because for now it seems they are catering only to government agencies and politicians. It is obvious that without government patronage, Innoson will fold up and that is not a good long term business strategy.
I am surprised my brother. I mean he should have different levels of vehicles .
That way most of these jalopies from abroad would be a thing of the past . Plus he also needs competition to enhance quality and innovation.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Didn't God Tell Pastor Enenche About Osinachi's Situation? by rickleye: 11:16am On Jun 04, 2024
Ken4Christ:
This is a constructive criticism. The church must wake up and be more spiritual. Otherwise skeptics will doubt the authenticity of our claims.

The truth is that most ministers are just interested in numbers. As such, they preach only those messages that brings in the crowd.

In addition, they do not allow the Holy Spirit to work with them. There are gifts of the Holy Spirit that should be manifesting in the church. With these gifts, we should know certain things supernaturally.

Finally, Pastors should pray more for their members. It will help to protect them from the evil schemes of darkness. Losing any member God has given a church is an indication of a crack in the prayer ministry of the church.
It’s unfortunate but the climate we are in comes from the fact that you want to have churches in every nook and corner. I bet there are over 2000 different churches in Nigeria. Which might be the same number alone of RCCG church in Lagos alone .
The emphasis should be on quality and quantity. With quantity- the churches will need to be self reliant . It’s not that the HQ assists financially with the setup anyways yet they need to remit finances to HQ. This allows the pastor to either break out independently cuz they never felt financially supported anyways.

And pardon me - look at the state of nation and look at the number of churches and you know people seeing God as a vending machine or as an ATM.
Now, thank God we are not Haiti but crap we are getting close.
We might be able to quote scriptures but practical implementation is lacking with real repentance.

SSIPON:
This is a man that has seen "visions" and has performed miracles. Osinachi performed one of the most popular Gospel music in Nigeria. Why did God abandon her? And why couldn't Enenche the mighty man of God see a vision that She was being abused? undecided undecided undecided

He said when Osinachi came to him complaining of respiratory problems, he referred her to the hospital, while she was dying in the hospital, despite his several prayers that availeth nothing, he was busy packing crutches in Cameroon like a golf caddy. Crutches he claimed people left behind after healing.

Religion na better business ooo..
Talking like someone who knows the working of the spirit Abi ? Why do you comment on things you know nothing about ?
Why didn’t God heal Paul from his afflictions ? God response my Grace is sufficient for you , my power is made perfect in your weakness
Why didn’t God destroy Jesus enemies as a baby yet sent them to Egypt till his enemies were destroyed- in order to fulfil prophecy.
Why did God take the Israelites 40 years in the dessert for a 2 week trip - their lack of faith.

If you pray and don’t get an answer - what’s next ?
Are hospitals and doctors of Satan ?
Not everyone gets a miracle ( which is suspension of natural order of things ) and which the spirit alone determines.

This is not the first time this issue has come up. But you have to split chores till kids are older. Buy a vacuum and do that once a week. Or else get someone to do it for a fee.
She mentioned her mates which means his friends are doing it and helping around the house.

I agree partially . I mean he is right those steps were necessary but wrongly implemented.
He took stopped the subsidy on day 1 with a pronouncement. He did not prepare the people for the known outcome.
With regards to TE , some of those investors are crooks looking for the usually kickbacks . If they want to leave let them go. Let them try the arabs .

God can protect a pastor anymore? Meanwhile, they will be praying God's protection over the lives of the sheepie while they flee to civilize countries to enjoy.

Even when Elijah ran away from Jezebel for fear of his life, God brought him back to witness her gruesome disgrace and death. So shall your portion be if you also believe
Didn’t God tell Joseph and Mary to go to Egypt ?
With his son . With his only son. Wouldn’t it have been prudent to kill all those after his son ? When all those after his life died he came back home.
If that is what the Holy Spirit is telling him , let him stay till it’s okay to return.

The latter.

PoliticsRe: "Nigeria Was Bleeding When We Took Over. We Have Stopped The Bleeding" - Tinubu by rickleye: 12:33pm On May 27, 2024
Racoon:
Another gibberish load of lies and propaganda. The same Nigeria that is still being bled with policies somersault, insane taxation, looting and rudderless governance?

A bag of rice is 80k today and a lots of families can't feed yet this otondo is still insulting the sensibility of the suffering downtrodden citizens?
I don’t know but I believe him . There’s a lot which he mentioned in that short excerpt

1. He has stopped the bleeding- Prior admins just bandaged the issue with Subsidy over the years. He has removed the bandage and place a stint. To stop internal bleeding. On the road to recovery which will be determined by the patient.
2. It was really bad - I mean really really bad. Until you have access to all the books , you cannot really tell how bad the situation really was. He said it was a bad current.
3. It will take time - how can you repair damage done to an economy over 12+ years in 2 years. His problem was appearing to be a miracle worker and not a healer.
4. Bad Synergy - meaning a lot of bad behaviour which have become normalized over the years will fight against the tide. It takes a lot of strength to fight against the tide than with it .
5. His team - Can you imagine the number of discussion his economist would have. Voting one policy against the other not allowing one to be fully implemented before changing.
6. Local governments and State Government. He did not roll anyone under the bus but we have seen videos pop up here and there of state governments hoarding bags of rice which citizens stole from warehouses in some states. Most State governments are not focussed on their citizens and local governments really do nothing besides getting taxes.
Everything cannot be Federal.

I would have voted Obi if I could.

RomanceRe: Can A Couple Survive Infidelity And Save Their Marriage After? by rickleye: 1:07am On May 17, 2024
oldguyman:
Can a couple survive infidelity and save their marriage after the betrayal of trust has happened?
The question is well explanatory and I would like to have feedback on the matter.
If bill clinton and Hillary can patch things up being profile people anyone can . You have to want to and believe in the marriage.
Most ladies have it in mind that there husbands , hubby cheat. They may not talk about it directly but they are aware of side chicks. As long as you don’t flaunt it in their face or disrespect them they are okay. But there is another group , who believe the best in their hubby and only the best . These are those that are hurt the most when the cheating is found out and may not be able to heal and recover from the scandal.
As long as husband is prepared to recommit to marriage and go through counseling then it can happy but if he’s someone who’s into porn and sexually suggestive videos - it will happen again.
