I was shocked last week when in a taxi taking me to Slaughter from Artillery. Knowing that the pseudo hold-up at Rumuobioakani Roundabout was caused by men from Mini-Okoro Police Station (my guess) was not pleasant when we discovered it. When the policeman got to us, he shamefully came to the side of the car, at the driver's side and said "oya!". The driver grudgingly gave him money. I sat in front and so I saw clearly how much he handed the crook. I waited for him to return a change, but he waved us on. We left without Taxi driver collecting his change.
Thereafter, I queried him why he would leave his change for the thief and he said they pay N100 now. Wow!
"Why you no give am N50?" I asked him.
"If you pay N50, them go search your booth only. But if you no pay at all, them go park you" he explained.
I shook my head, considering the fact that he was only conveying five passengers who paid him N50 each. It meant that he earned N250 and paid out N100 to police men, and N30 or so to the [i]agberos[i/]. That man would likely get to slaughter with only N120.
It was appauling. It beats me how people manage to survive sometimes. The Nigerian police makes life more horrible for the citizenry, instead of assuaging their sufferings.
Nigerian police 'Bribe collection' is responding to inflation. I wonder when this would stop, if at all it will ever.

dat wasn't the first tym i pay som1 in cash so i didn't see dat as an issue.

Not your first time does not make it right bro. A lot of advice has been offered you here, take heed to them.
Insist on any of the following:
Do a transfer
Issue a chq
Take the person to the bank if he insists on cash
Wave the taxi you need, don't let them stop for you, especially if you just came out of a bank
Above all, draw closer to God and be spiritually alert always

Is removing their shirt "striping unclad"? That's all I see. If that's what you refering to, then remember, they are there for 'military' training.

too bad.
The challenge I have is that some people reading this will still go peddle narcotics, or continue in their trade (for those not caught yet).
They come back and try to intimidate hard-working Nigerians with their ill-gotten wealth, shame.
As we pray for them to genuinly repent from their evil ways, let's also advise other to quit thinking of continuing of joining the trade. Evil is evil, let's condemn it. No sin goes unpunished.

There are many myth surrounding handsome men and ugly men.men are not much different in there mindset and nature..

A woman prefers to mary a handsome man that she can move about with,tell people about him and she is always ready to make the man happy and man will do everything possible to make her cry.

But the ugly man is at home,performing the duties of a woman using his last kobo to take care of the house but she will never appreciated,unless he's loaded with with cash or have a special talent....

Women prefer the face than the mind.TRUE or FALSE?
BE REAL

OP, I am handsome but not the bolded. I still know some guys who are not.

You are absolutely right. But the truth is, even though they feel that way, it is not difficult to get them on your side, if you have the right words and acts that is.
Your fiancee would find it difficult to believe you are dedicated to her alone, always feel you get a lot of attention from ladies and wouldn't just keep off from all (personal experience).

I have also noticed that it is also like that in females. This has made me to always encourage any guy around me who's interested in a 'beautiful' lady but afraid she's hooked. Not all them fine ladies are hooked.

I am looking at this news with one eye because of the bolded. Which bank did they present such chq through? Do you know that in Nigeria any chq above N10M is not valid and thus cannot pass through the clearing system. So how come?

Meringe:
it's an open knowledge here in Aba that the military were used during the last election to force T. A. orji on Abians, apart from that do you think he would have won the election?

Mehn, I thought he bought them over. Can military be used like that?

Natural hair is the in-thing now. For big girls. Me like my woman natural.

Meringe:
OUK won the election if you must know but he was rigged out cos his differences with his erstwhile godson. Iherijika used Nigerian Army against OUK, to favour Chukwumerije.

You sure about this one?

UnknownT:
Uche and OUK are from Abia North while T A Orji is from Abia Central, so T A Orji will contest the primaries with Senator Nkechi Nwaogu

Ok bro. You are right. I used to think otherwise.

UnknownT:
OUK is eyeing Uche Chukwumerije's seat. The last time he tried under PPA, he was beaten.

I think TAO is also eyeing the same seat, I have seen posters of him being 'urged' to go for senate. They should unseat Chukwumerije anyway, he's been there for too long.

Omg! Is this man human? I'm almost in tears.
How could he have just terminated these beauties' lives and carrear like that? Fornication breeds all these vices. He had not even married her. People need to give their lives to Christ.

hyfr:
T.A ORJI knows he will be in a big mess if uzor kalu should win, because uzor kalu will bring up cases against him and make sure all the looting he did in abia will be exposed. So all he is doing is to make sure uzor kalu doesn't win. But he should know that before abraham Jesus was born!

I feel differently about the bolded, because none of them is innocent. But rather, I feel both are eyeing the same seat.
