some just grab it and disappear into thin air.

EfemenaXY:

so let me relax and hear jist jare

hrhobi1:
Can you give me a good reason why you think he can't bounce back musically.

Because all the years he has wasted getting wasted his younger ones are in the studio work in hard. People like psquare, dbanj Davido tuface etc

Kimoni:


It's like you are describing me, sometimes, I tend to ask myself whether it's worth it sef, as in, whether they truly add jara. I think it's film trick.

they're not adding any jara o jare

they will just use their hands and pinch it to fall then they will pack it again and say it's jara

On top 30 naira crayfish

Chillis:
Hian, not only price. I make sure I select the ones wey chaff no too much.

Nigerians can wayo person. And I make sure I look wella to see the jarah o.

If you just turn your eyes off, they will tell you they have added the jarah

Madam put jarah jor.
if she no put the jarah, I go another place go buy. No be my money?

Same for those mallams cutting meat

Lol they are very organised o yes of course.

then don teach them sense so they have to be organised otherwise na them go loose

EfemenaXY:
Choi!

You even sabi how dem dey run their biz...

But yeah, it sounds very organised. Similar to a program that was on telly a few weeks ago. Something about Mega Brothels in Germany or so.



I'm good oh!

Just chilling with the girls here, trying to make the most of the remaining weekend. I wish I could close my eyes, and when I open them again, it's Friday evening.

so you dey price crayfish


crayfish wey be say go los for inside egusi when the egusi done. You no go even taste am for the food

Chillis:
Its crayfish not fish.

Those ones you tell the woman to put jare she carry the dirty chaff top for you.

Ice fish is from 30 naira upward.
Egusi 60 naira à cup.
Buy 20 naira palm oil for water proof.

Lol why won't I know when when I'm going to the market to buy food stuffs I do a lot of window shopping on the way before I get to where I'm going for futuristic purpose so that by the time I'm ready to buy them I have an idea of how much each items cost and so that when the seller wants to lie I'll listen to him to amuse myself

Kimoni:
Kulyie, is there any item you don't know its price?? person wey go cheat you for market go sweat o

People have difference choices when it comes to food and its preparation and there is little or no basis for judging them.

I once lived in an ibibio community and visited a lot of modern families/kitchen while learning their native soups. Most of them hardly use blenders for their pepper, instead they use this "mini mortar and pestle" and before you say j-a-c-k, they had blended their pepper with this stuff and cook their delicious soups. Not for one second did I think these people like "suffer head" just because they preferred to use mortars even when they had blenders. That's what they grew up with and I dare say they had perfected the art of using it. Infact, by the time I was leaving them, I had grown to fall in love with it too, just that I never remembered to use it when I got back to Lagos

EfemenaXY:
That is eh!

Sambarry, come answer question o! Me, I wan understand too. Very interested in your response...

the answer is simple,

just like okada, keke maruwa and hawkers have their tax collectors, ashewos have their tax collectors that collect money from them and act as security that will protect them from being kidnapped or used as ritual scapegoat so the tax collector stands at the reception of the brothel and whichever man that steps in will write his name inside register and tick the girl he wants to see. Their names are already in the higher education note book at the counter. After they write their name and tick whoever they want to see at the counter then they can go in



By day break in the morning the tax collector will open the book since its in list


He will just check the index

E.g Sandra had 18 customers today
oluchi had 22
Nkechi had 6
Tayo had 25


So she will pay 100naira tax x18 customers. The amount there is what she will pay for the progress of the business

How i go dey put money inside braziya

fine girl like me

na all those goat meat butchers dey put money inside dross

how I knew was when I wanted to buy goat meat and I had given the man money the next thing was he stood up and started untying his trousers and putting squeezed money inside. When I asked why he's keep money there he said because of armed robbers that wait fo them in the bustop to robb them in the evening when they close for the day


so na for wallet I dey keep am though I dey push am for inside my waist and the jeans trousers will hold it especially when I'm doing night shopping for some kain market for ikorodu

EfemenaXY:
If you hide your Tassan Nairas in your bra, your money nor go ever lost. Unless dem wan chook hand inside dia.



Why una dey laff me?

Isn't that how they used to do "it" in those days?

EfemenaXY:
Do you mean the online payment systems aren't secure? Or they sellers simply have the gift of the gab to make you buy more than you initially intended? If the latter's the case, then there's nothing yahoo-yahoo about it na. Man must eat. Abi?

It is not secure o.419 plenlenty pass genuine sellers. You don't know who is who

edwife:
Dead!

na so them do am for my brother friend o.after making the payment of laptop and waiting for the person to bring the laptop and he no come . He started calling the number .Someone will pick up the phone and put it near music player playing West life

EfemenaXY:
Seriously, you ladies completely lost me that day.

What's a BVN and which one come be "derrière" again?

bvn is bank verification number na. You nor dey watch news for 9pm on ait

edwife:
Don't mind sambarry ,that's how chilli refused to bring her derrière to London because of 80£.....

Sambarry can even price a human being sef.....

money is not easy to come by o as dollar don increase. Every Barry dey feel the heat o.even lagos ashewo wey no dey pay tax don dey pay tax per each customer

Especially with all those awon omo yahoo yahoo that has made online transactions a pain in the neck. No be for nigeria you go dey do online shopping. Even online fraudsters have stepped up their game


they will feign they are selling so so goods and convince you to the point that you will buy more than what you need. By the time you realise you've been swindled, water don pass garri

edwife:
Efe how you take know?

It sweet me pass anything whenever i go to the village,my MIL will be doing it and i always take the stone from her and do it....

Okay let's us say it is for fun i do it not like an obligation.

As for online shopping,na my enemy number one,i got to touch what i buy.....

cococandy:
this is only fun in the village where their markets are swept daily and always clean with no air pollution. in the towns or city ehn. no go there o. agberos will make you regret coming.always clutching your purse so that no one steals it from you. lol

that one too is another case on its own with those Agberos lurking around waiting for you to forget your wallet where you bought pepper

EfemenaXY:
Kia!

You're worse than Chillisauce.

So your Tassan Nairas nor dey ever miss road?

except my mind wants to release it. If my mind says no na pos tins


except she says aunty let me help you carry it inside boot I can find something for her. Asides that. Na oyo o

Of course I still prefer the convenientional African shopping where you can choose what you wan gan gan and you can price, move around till you see a seller that is ready to sell for you at your terms. I don't dig the online shopping o jare except when I'm in a grocery store and I'm cash trapped i can use pos.and because of this longer throat sales girls that will say there's no change so that you can be forced to leave your change with them

as for the stone grinding, since I was younger I've not used it again. It's either blender or nothing and how much is blender, with 5k you can get binatone blender

edwife:
Lol i am cool i just didn't understand her post really,she asked :So, whose household care pattern do you dig? Mine or my mum’s?

Of course we will dig hers,but as chillisauce said....she has a credit or debit card her mum didn't,there were limited access to the internet so how can we choose?

It's like someone saying tracking to school like most of our parents did and getting a bus which one do we dig?

Chillisauce where them dey sell 15 naira fish?

this woman you no go kill person

Chillis:
At least for you to order online, you have a credit card
.. blender etc


Some of all these ones that shouts and praise those suffer heads don't even have food to chop.

The 200 naira their husbands gives them should be well accounted for while buying 50 naira ice fish and 15 naira crayfish etc.

This one can't be done online oh.

Make evribody dey him lane...

The bottom line is CHOICE

some people feel washing machine doesn't wash jeans clean compared to hand washing. To each her own sha


Hawa you anyway. Hope you are good? It's been a while

EfemenaXY:
The title of this thread very appropriately encapsulates @Op's mother's attitude towards slave labour.

She even had the option of using the electric blender but stated that hubby preferred it done with a grinding stone. So she did have that choice but didn't want to take it up. Yet she struggled through the later phases of her preganancy?

The sad part of all this is that there are many folks out there who still think like that today. How many threads have we got on here about some guys thinking a woman's worth is measured by how much she handwashes his tough, khaki jeans trousers?

Chillisause was right on the money. Again.

Ahannn cool down na


why your blood dey hot?


op is doing comparison. So she's asking her readers which one do you prefer is it the conventional African method or Oyinbo online method of purchase

edwife:
I don't know what to make of this write up.....

As far as i can remember,the internet was introduced in Nigeria in 1996 and even at that in 2008 just 15.9% had access to the internet.

How would have your mum do her shopping online and grind her tomatoes when all these electronics gadgets were still a luxury to most.
The internet still remains a phenomenon in the country and rural areas still shout out from this illumination,we are yet to have a stable electricity system in the country and you are here talking about online shopping?

Yes we are 21 century women good for us but that wasn't the case for some of our mothers. Anything to make our mothers look like slaves.....

Even when he finally recuperates his musical career will never be the same. He might just be one local street musician on one side of the hood . the fame and attention he'll get will not be like before. I doubt if he will even smell mama awards talk less of Letterman

Its over hyped abeg...Period....but i really hail women....

you can never understand what you don't experience so for you talk will be cheap


just pray the doctors in wherever hospital is not going to be on strike by the time your wife water breaks and she's rushed to the hospital then you'll know how to sieve your utterances

When I had my baby too the pain was crazy I was just shouting eyin mi o (my back)


I tried to endure the pain with screaming and tears


from 9 am when I was rushed to the theatre I was gasping and panthing and writhing in pain.it was until around after 2 I had her, so I was told. But those hours my legs, thighs, back waist where on fire


trust me anybody in labour wey dey theatre wey dey scream for upstairs you go hear the screaming for stair case .If you see how i was screaming ehen even the mid husband after I had my baby was like did you swallow microphone before coming here


but the beauty of it all is that by the time you see your baby's face or hold her the pain will vanish. I'm yet to fathom how that works though. Infact that moment you're holding your baby, the feeling is out of this world. For the whole day you'll just be happy like a junkie who just found crack

nobody can explain the feeling till you experience it yourself

you are more likely to be abused by your partner if you make much more money than him.....be warned! marital strife has nothing to do with the depth of your pocket. just endeavour to marry the right partner. you can be the richest woman in the world and if you marry the wrong partner, he would deal with you mercilessly.

You have nailed it

Another marital testimony



exits thread to go and prepare fried rice

Funny enough when I first met him he looked scary. Tatoo full im body like lil Wayne, looking muscular with broad chest. He weaved his hair, had earrings with sagged those 3/4 Jordan trousers with shirt. Generally he was sha looking like a niggur. When I looked at him up to down I said no be this one go do my hair then the manager of the saloon came to ask me why I don't want him to do my hair. I said he looks scary then she said what's scary about him

I said can't you see Tatoo all over his body and he even did two parting on his eye brows then he gigled and said ok let's do it like this. Let me make your hair for you. If you don't like it don't pay me for my services and I can loosen the hair for you but if you like it you can pay me. I said ok

when he finished it it was just perfect exactly what I wanted since then he became my hair dresser. If it was a woman i looked at head to toe like that she go don dey give me attitude

My hair dresser is male.


Very patient and ready to listen. No matter how much I Frustrate him he will still be calm and smiling. The guy is completely understanding.if I enter the saloon frowning, he has a way of lightening my mood.the surprising thing is that when I enter the saloon before I sit down he will collect my hand bag from me, ask me how my week went how's my baby etc. E humble die so even when he finishes my hair and I ask how much is my bill and he says 11k, many times I add 2k extra because aside from the fact that he's very good with hair he's very accommodating and tolerant unlike his female colleagues that will be talking on top of your head and the saliva from their mouth will be escaping and splashing on you, some will even be chewing gum on top of your head and be doing pasha pasha with their mouth. If you now correct them that this is what you want they'll be giving you attitude like say you force them do the hair. Some will even go as far as pulling your hair and be eyeing you forgetting you're seeing them in the mirror in front of you

too much wahala with female hair dresser jare. I don taya for them
