It beats me to note that politicians fight through 'unreasonable' young people, some of who lose their lives sometimes. But when the Politicians meet themselves, they lock in warm embrace. It sucks.

@Cybershow, story deleted on purpose. I will upload later, sorry. Will mention you when I do. Thanks for stopping by.

@ruffhandu, you are right. I don't know how best to protect my stories as I will like to publish some of them in the future.

@zyxxx bro, thanks. Will be back soon by God's grace.

Hello Candy, I hope you are doing good. How's your research going?
Cheers!

CBN CLEARING HOUSE: OUR PLAYGROUND (The Last King of The Unwashed)
When I saw a mail from HR directing my change of job function, I did not bear any grudge. Perhaps because I had spent quite some time in my former unit and itched for a change, or because I had known the team of staff I was going to work with; though I had never worked with them directly, they were my friends.

My new supervisor and his team gave me a soft landing. They made me feel at home and it was like the old times, allowed me some time to handover my previous assignment and assisted me settle down. when I ‘settled down’, it was time to ‘introduce’ me to the Clearing House; that was the core function of a clearing staff- representing your bank in CBN as regards cheque clearing matters.

A bank not being represented in the House any day was ominous. So, every bank made an appearance every other day, even if they had no cheque to ‘clear’. The clearing House made clearing to be one of the most interesting units I have worked in so far throughout my banking career; my present unit doesn’t offer me the kind of fun I experienced as a clearing Rep.

Welcome back Chinweblink.
But if Chioma, Nnaemeka's sister, is bewitched, then she didn't sow what she is reaping.

I suggest you modify that place you declared 'THE END' so as to direct new readers aright.

EnlightenedSoul:
Any decent mother should plan for something like that. It's hardly an unexpected event.

.

You can say that again

Family › Re: Breastfeeding Graduating Mum (Photo) by ruffhandu(op): 11:59pm On Feb 02, 2015

EnlightenedSoul:
Loll. You make it sound like a do or die affair. Like the women who does not feed her child in public is surely an evil, child-starving, sorry-excuse-of-a-mother. You do realize there are alternatives??

I'd say the child should not be 'starving' in the first place.

Yes o! If you have seen what I'm talking about, then you'll understand. Some women will only resort to cuddling and patting the child to keep them quite in public, instead of doing the needful. Once in a while you see husbands and Grandmas explode on some of such ladies. Sad.

Family › Re: Breastfeeding Graduating Mum (Photo) by ruffhandu(op): 6:01pm On Feb 02, 2015

EnlightenedSoul:
I think it's rude, personally. Bad etiquette.

However, if I were to see someone breastfeeding publicly, I wouldn't look twice or make it my problem.

Those ladies who starve their babies need to hear the bolded.

Family › Re: Breastfeeding Graduating Mum (Photo) by ruffhandu(op): 12:06pm On Feb 02, 2015

mutter:
When women pose in the nude no one comments, so what is the big deal with this!
I breastfed my kid`s anywhere anytime.
If you no like am commot your eye!

It's a big deal for some ladies, they starve their babies; hence my advice below.

ruffhandu:
For me, this should teach ladies to stop starving their babies in the name of keeping breast shape, and hiding breast, especially in public. Don't even starve him for one second for once men know you have a baby, your breast does little or nothing to most of them. Your baby's health is above all.

I am feeling you Candy. You do what you have to do. So long as your write-up is online, theft is inevitable. But, DO NOT for any reason let people kill your writing dreams. Even if you don't post your stories online, keep your writing pad warm. You get better by doing. Your publications no man shall block. You are really good.

Hello Royver,
I want to thank you and Whitemosquito, in fact, everyone participating in this, for all your efforts.
I appreciate your inputs and am greatly encouraged, even at this.
Lol @ " There is argument as to how plant life would have survived without sunlight/photosynthesis for twelve years...". But, this is fiction and the clarification lies in "Every energy we used came from electricity and the moon." Funny.

But I really want to know why you highlighted the 'sun' in "...which they described as resulting from an orbital shift of the sun."

Your criticism is very healthy for me and I appreciate that. Taking only that away from here, for me, is perfect. God bless you.

@ losprince,
Perhaps I didn't understand what you meant by

Omo cool story but you have to take a break

Literature › Re: Those who kill... by ruffhandu: 7:55pm On Jan 31, 2015*

@ losprince,
The issue is being fixed. Try copying the story and notice what has been done.

Literature › Re: unHOLY MATRIMONY by ruffhandu: 5:17am On Jan 31, 2015

It's like some buttons have been deactivated on this section, like 'copy' button, not 100% sure yet. But when it was suggested someone said it was 'not possible'; people sha. I hate the word 'impossible' anyway, perhaps because it doesn't really exist, better to use 'very difficult' in its stead.
A good step in the right direction by Nairaland.

Good attempt Femi.
But:
you got carried away and mixed up the use of 'I' and 'she'
You need to check your tenses
You need to check your spellings eg, you wrote 'fill' instead of 'feel'
Just be consistent
You seem to have typed in a hurry.

In all, nice try.

Play safe.
Thanks for your observation.

Mention the mugger's name joor. Just assume you are in Ghana right now and you are typing with my fingers.
People need to know him, either to treat his mess, or to avoid his routes.

Well, not all you see in uniform ought to be in it. I have learnt of a renowned cultist now a police officer going by the name *** at a police junction in Rumuola when moving through new road.

Nothing has changed about him except the fact that he now extorts and moves with loaded rifles legally under a uniform.

Why are you afraid of calling his name? You are afraid, even here?

Crime › Re: ASP Escapes Mob Lynching After He Raped 9-yr-old Girl by ruffhandu: 10:19pm On Jan 30, 2015

But how come the little girl didn't shout? I hope it was actually a rape case, for if not for the light from the okada, Pastor and Okadaman wouldn't have known anything was happening.

For the records, before you post any story here, you need to secure your copywrite claims.
Laykorn advised on https://www.nairaland.com/2111154/fight-against-plagiarism-getting-ownership last time, I think people should consider that.
If you cannot stress yourself any bit and must post your story online, then start as Laykorn advised.
