Nigeria is a funny county, this lady left Suleja prison long time ago and moved out of the country

I hope you've not mistaken her for the late PMB's Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari's, maid at his house in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Those days almost every visitor in that house used to think that they're the same person due to their identical resemblance, but they aren't in truth. They aren't even related.

That said, PBAT should be commended for doing the needful.

Blame that on the winners lack of the mastery of the science of financial intelligence.

Like I've always told people, making it big has never always been about the quantity of the seed financial capital, but rather it's mostly about the quality of the human capital resources.

Here we go again. This same old story of " I suffered with him when he had nothing".

Did you have better men richer than him that wanted you then and you refused all of them to stay with this man

2. What was your own financial status then? Were you better than him financially when you stayed with him??

Women always stay with or marry the man that presents them the best offer they can get.

Your posit herein is a distortion that has been allowed to fester for too long. Evidence abounds about women, both financially rich and poor, who, at the inception, have stuck with men who're financially poor, despite having opportunities to move on with other men who're financially better off than the men they stuck with. And in most cases, these women have not only stuck with these men, they've always given them every necessary support they could muster.

It's not every woman, or man, who's greedy like many people who abound on a forum like this, citing the mentalities often on exhibition.

Mrkc:
After over one year in SA without anything to show for it, I have finally decided to come back to Nigeria.

With no job, house or anything tangible to fall back to but i am just determined to start all over again because i believe no matter how far you have gone on the wrong part it is never too late to start again.

In my late thirties, no qualifications, no family, no flourishing or tangible business but determined to learn anything that can at least substain me.

Foremost, if your decision to leave SA is based on conviction and principle, kindly do that with alacrity. Don't allow anyone to talk you out of it. It's always been quite disheartening to see Nigerian men and women in their numbers wasting away in foreign countries. People who haven't been privileged and opportune to traverse the length and breadth of the world might resort to arguing blindly if I assert that more than 10m Nigerians are wasting away in foreign countries.

Meanwhile, in case you're from Bayelsa State, regardless of the fact that you said you aren't skilled, I can put you in a position where you can serve as a Project Consultant. Through intensive lecture virtually, I'll teach you all the basic things that you'll need to know within a few days to prepare you for the role. I've an ongoing PPP project there that could fetch you some millions within the next four months when the project will be completed to kickstart a prosperous life Nigeria. Apart from a promise of diligence, I'm not going to expect or take anything from you.

Don't try to be too clever by half by trying to abuse this privilege by trying to present another person as yourself peradventure you don't meet the stated condition above. Let me know here whether you're qualified before proceeding.

Feelsgood:
That one concern you...the person wey I talk to don confirm... you dey here dey blow grammar

My point is that you little people should stop misinforming the unsuspecting general public. Ignorance of the law excuses no one.

Feelsgood:
I won't even waste my time arguing with you. Druss just confirmed what I said earlier...so...run along. Adios!

If wishes were horses beggars would ride.

Feelsgood:
Chai! So you still just want to disgrace yourself here. I personally know a senior manager in ExxonMobil who was Pengassan member in Eket. Abeg no talk wetin you no know....it makes you sound foolish.

Some of you like to argue blindly. Druss is right. Senior management staff of OCs, especially IOCs, do not join PENGASSAN. They are generally considered part of management, not the workforce that the union represents, and often have different terms and conditions of employment. While PENGASSAN focuses on the rights and welfare of the rank-and-file workers and junior to mid-level managers, senior management typically falls outside the scope of union membership due to their roles and responsibilities in decision-making and strategic operations.

The possibility of you turning #2m into #10m or more within a year is very high, subject to your knowledge, determination, and grace. If you've the nose for creativity and innovation, focus on the Secondary Sector of the economy, if you're operating in a developing country like Nigeria, but if you're operating in a developed country like the US, with the equivalent of that amount, focus on the Quaternary Sector.

Making it big has never always been about the quantity of the seed financial capital, but rather the human capital resources. So, with that amount, you can successfully kickstart your journey of building a multi-billion dollar business empire.

Reno and disingenuousness are like 5&6. He was quick to state that PMB halved the $510 billion economy he inherited in 2015, but disingenuously failed to state unquivocally that now under PBAT, it stands at approximately $188 billion. Besides, contrary to his assertion, Nigeria economy then stood at $561 billion approximately.

That said, PBAT is doing his best, and Nigeria will soon attain its full great potential. To lead has never been an easy task.

Sonnobax15:

Wise Ex.....Mumu wife

I pity men who marry women who still get in touch with their exes

"Wise Ex," you said? It's unfortunate that most of you tend to equate:

- Perfidiousness to Wiseness

- Callousness to Smartness

- Disingenuousness to Emotional Intelligence

- Sententiousness to Scrupulousness

The heads of both the OP and everyone of you who has cast aspersions on the guy, an eighteen years old adult, without any verifiable proof that he's a fraudster, simply because he's able to rent a 1.5m naira house need to be examined properly. All I see here is a bunch of never-do-well elements who have resorted to projecting their inadequacies and failures on a guy who has done something they were neither able to do at his age nor in their older ages.

Come on! A whole lot of opportunities, legitimately and otherwise, abound for people of all ages, and regardless of social strata, to make some cool money. The opportunities have always been there right from time immemorial, and they're now more available and easily accessible.

That said, I don't still hold a brief for the guy.

The subject of the thread misrepresented the guy's posit, same as the comments. In fact, it's either that you little people do not read or read but lack comprehension. The meat of the guy's message is "marry a man for who his not what he has or what you think he will have in future."

Had he come to Nairaland to table his need for another wife after having eight children, you would've seen all these sententious, domineering but myopic never-do-well elements crucifying and tearing him down like they've done to the guy in the following thread:

https://www.nairaland.com/8521498/need-husband-need-wife#136843744

Life and its funniness; in everything in life, those who are quick to preach/teach something hardly practice it while those who practice something hardly preach/teach it. Yet, it's important to always listen to those who preach/teach, even though they hardly practice what they preach/teach, because oftentimes they know what they are preaching/teaching. S/he without a weakness can go ahead and crucify her.

Sugar gets converted into gas inside the watermelon when it's very hot, which often makes it explode.

I want to believe that words failed him, like they've always failed many people. Of a fact, a husband doesn't need to downplay his diligent wife to prove that his diligent siblings are dear to him, citing that he can easily relate with both parties equitably.

Term her action an act of desperation, but I'll term it an act of definiteness of purpose.

Their ungratefulness aside, it's mastery of the science of moneymaking they lack and need, not deliverance. Had they conquered themselves and become grounded in some area of expertise, they wouldn't need all these deliverance stuffs and putting up all these disingenuous attitudes in the guise of repentance and humility.

They become powerless battles when a man lives his life at the periphery of conventionalism and diligence in general:

- Always strive to do your best but never to be the best, but if you become the best in the process, fine and good.

- Never allow anyone defines what should constitute respect for you, define yours for yourself - Most men (many people) are under subjugation of their wives (other people) because they fail to understand this.

There's nothing to be proud of about a performative lifestyle.

He's on a meaningless self-promotion campaign. He wants uninformed people to start seeing him as an excellent Software Engineer, which he isn't, that commands big salary in the corporate world.

ruggedtimi:
man doesnt like luxury lifestyle.
He held shares in a company that was once sold for over a billion USD, so you decide whether that makes him truly rich.

You all should stop this misinformation about the former company Mr Eazi held a share in being sold for "a billion dollar or more," or that he's from an "extremely wealthy home."

Vydia was never sold for more than 1M dollars, and his company wasn't the majority shareholder, so you can do the maths. You, as an outsider and novice in M&A process of the transaction, can never know better, and the fact that the fact of the transaction wasn't made public isn't enough reason for the continuous needless misinformation.

Also, for those asserting that he came from an extremely wealthy home, no didn't. He came from a middle class home.

Has he done well for himself? Yes. He's giving a good account of himself.

Namaster:
That is the difference between an ASSET and a LIABILITY.

A wife is a standing LONG-TERM LIABILITY by every measure. A wife is a constant DRAIN on your resources. Even a "good wife". You'll support her. You'll support her family. You'll entertain her. You'll "upgrade" her.

And the sex is NEVER guaranteed.
In fact, the more you do the above, the LOWER the frequency and quality of the sex.

Wives NEVER want to let their husband think they deserve sex because of ALL their husbands have done.

Meanwhile, the GF on the other hand needs LITTLE maintenance. And pleasure flows from her.

If a side chick dies on Friday, the man would take his family to the wedding ceremony of a third cousin without missing a beat.

By the following Friday, another Side Chick would have taken her place.

Plus, this woman phrased it as "suffering with 2 kids" like it's not the man that drives them around. She made it sound like the man NEVER takes them anywhere.

Finally, she didn't "think much of it" because the car is likely over 15 years old with more than 5 years on Nigerian road. It's OLD and DOWNTRODDEN.

In fact, I can GUARANTEE that the current market value of the car is LESS than what the man has spent on his wife this year.

I wager you and your likes took to this kind of sick mentality and exhibition all in the name of being seen and counted as being woke - wannabe woke people.

Anyone who thinks that it's only a country like Nigeria that has fake lawyers obviously knows next to nothing.

If a fake lawyer can confidently show up in court and represent his clients that had cases before United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, part of the Department of Homeland Security, and much more for more than 12 years, seeing a similar scenario happen in Nigeria shouldn't be surprising.

What is the relevance of this

This is a business matter
Where is the criminal angle
Do governments award contracts to companies or individuals
When there have been issues with bigger foreign companies does it become EFCC issue or even personal
Was he operating as a company or individual

If there is personal criminal behaviour he must be held accountable but let that be made public

I want to believe that you erroneously quoted me; if otherwise, I'm afraid, you know next to nothing and are undeserving of my attention.

I'm not the cause of your ignora&ce. Do well and direct your further mention(s) to ignora&t people like you.

spyder880:
And Spyder880 is from Enugu state, living in Enugu and not called to build even one school?

You've yourself to blame, not the government.

Come on, man! In EPC engagements, the first rule to observe as a practitioner is to never surrender your standard and corporate philosophy under any circumstances.

Anyway, I know that you'll come out wiser and more grounded after this ordeal.

In this 21st century, it's irritating and appalling to hear any able-bodied person says they're unemployed - if underemployed or undergoing some life challenges, I can understand a bit. Come on! If no one/org employs you, employ yourself.

And don't even come up with the usual no seed capital chorus. Money has always been the least among the most important capitals most people who lust about conquering the business world lack - in figuring out the most important capitals, seed capital emerges.
