There are many Nigerians earning over 1m a month. It's no big deal.

I don't know about 'many Nigerians', but indeed, there people in this country earning well above 1m. And I'm not talking about politicians.

Na make God pick our call, be our prayer!

They never learn, do they? Keep your affairs off the social media space

The average Jones thinks he's an exception.

Now the social media inlaws, will open a diary for them.

I wish them God's best.

Congratulations brother. Many more blessings on the way.

Warm regards.

Can one get a teaching job abroad from linkedln?

I suppose nothing is impossible.

However, the persons I know who got overseas job from LinkedIn are in the engineering space.

LinkedIn is helpful depending on your skillset, work experience and the industry/sector you are in.

I have never gotten an offer via LinkedIn, but I know persons who got offers from organizations based in Nigeria and even overseas via LinkedIn.

Seun don dey take red pills. Beware of overdose.

LockDown69:

All your reasons are valid, but you should wax that puna once in a while, if not someone else will do that for you. I quote in peace.

I hope that guy will not throw away this your piece of advice.

Except for medical reasons, how can a man not touch his wife for a whole 5 months? abi na me no read wetin em write correctly?

Handsomejok:
I had done everything for the marriage to work but all my effort were in vain because my wife refused to amend which she had made it clear to me that after our first separation she did came back to me because she had nowhere to stay with the children and I keep having reccuring dreams of her wanting me dead since she is not ready to work on the marriage and I had decided to put an end to the marriage for the sake of our children I will not send her packing neither will I take custody of the children I will let her and the children to stay in the rented house and I will move out of the house and I will be sending upkeep money 15k every month I hope I had made a good decision for my own sanity ?

15k for which economy? Abi nobi Nigeria you dey?

PoliteActivist:


Better than being with someone you can barely stand

I commend the op's courage but what she's looking for does not exist.

Yes, there's a right person but there's no perfect person. However, she is looking for a perfect man.

There's no way, that of all the suitors that have approach her in the past, not one of them is good enough for marriage.

It's not a must to get married and it's not a must to have children. But to be alone is not good.

I wish her the best of life.

edunaragold:
Your great problem now is social medial, social media got my wife thinking too that her class mate were doing ok,why I who have a job was struggling, although I work and your husband don't ,yet my wife still left me, thinking am sleeping with females around ,pls I know u may be an igbo lady for saying but want to go back, firstly before u go back let your parents call and talk to your man and his way forward,I don't buy the idea of my woman paying bills I will feel useless,pls take it easy with your husband,don't insult or disrespect him,call your pastor attention to it before I do anything.

Social media has destroyed, and is still destroying, a lot of persons and families.

People putting themselves under unnecessary pressure, just by viewing happy pictures of mostly unhappy people on Facebook and the likes.

Chigozie321:
I just read the story of a man who sold his supermarket and all he had to send his wife and kids to Canada.

Today, the man is a destitute. Men should not make themselves financially vulnerable.

nobi juju be dat...

And you would be surprised the family went to Canada with visiting visa.

May we never learn the way hard way.

Don't mind him. 2,5 Mi will be a fair price for d trip .

2.5m is still not fair. They should make it 5m, make only dem dey fly.

DanielsParker:
It’s only in Nigeria that going for a date must involve a lot of money. You mustn’t eat in a date. You can go for a date in the park, you can go for a walk and talk date( with maybe a bottle of water for rehydration). You can go for a snack date( eat simple snacks and some soft drinks). You can go to a public place and take pictures, talk and chill. You mustn’t go for a date and eat fried rice, salad and Turkey , no ! Except if the person that initiated it mentioned - lunch , dinner or going to a date for a meal.

We’re all getting it all wrong in this country.
If you ask a girl out for a date, she will pick chicken republic without asking or caring if you’re up to it . Don’t you eat at home ? mtchew

You are making sense but this advice is hard to follow in today's Nigeria.

Hunger dey this country o... Na only rich people dey chop 3 times now.

Forget the looks, many guys and ladies just dey package. Get close, you go see say ground no level.

Belle first! That's why almost every date must be in a restaurant or fast food joint.

Las las everybody go dey alright.

Focusmind:
I am not against love o, but first thing first. OP, leave women matter and face your NYSC program squarely. I hope you went to camp with your GMAT and SHL book to be rehearsing. Job hunting has started and there should not be any distraction. Please, leave any form of serious relationship or commitment and focus on your survival as an upcoming young man. The road ahead is tough and could be frustrating.
Men that focus on their survival first will later have retinue of ladies coming to them after achieving a stable career while those that ignored their own success will have retinue of women ran away from them later in life. I am talking from experience. Be focus!!!

I sincerely hope the OP will take this your advice to heart and run with it.

It's my humble opinion that a man at the age and stage of life as the OP, should forget about love unless the issue of his means of livelihood is settled.

Notwithstanding, I wish the young lady a happy birthday.

My apartment was not near as furnished when I got married.

....make we just dey play....

GanagiBitrus:
Did you make efforts to speak to them? What was there response?
Bringing the matter to NL, shows you are not a true Christian.

BTW, there is no perfect church anywhere. Even if you find one, immediately you join, it will become imperfect.

Op is looking for an opportunity to rub mud on the body of Christ.

Has the Op never read about Judas who was Jesus' treasurer but was stealing money from the purse? Or the mother of John and James who came to lobby that Jesus should allow one sit on His right and the other his left, and how the other disciples got angry when they got to know about it?

The Church is like a hospital where people with different aliments come for cure. Like any normal hospital, some of the doctors and nurses also have one aliment or the other.

And mostly importantly, not everyone in that hospital is responding to treatment.

StagethemTVee:
It’s my 17th wedding anniversary today and I would love to share a few tips.
1. Unmet expectations are the No 1 causes of divorce. Act like the success of the marriage depends on only you.
2. Communication must never stop. Avoid malice and separation under the guise of recovering or getting your heads straight.
3. You are one in the marriage and no party should feel like they are less.
4. Don’t involve family members in your marriage under the guise of seeking advise. Get a mentor with several decades of successful marriage.
5. Spend some time away from the stress together to bond and connect.
6. Be in the circle of people with successful marriages.

Happy 17th wedding Anniversary to me and my boo.

Congratulations bro!

Warm regards to your sweet wife.

texazzpete:


No matter how many conspiracy theories you people post, it will never change the absolute, undisputed fact that the war started when Putin cowardly invaded a sovereign country after spending weeks denying an invasion was imminent.

It will also never change the fact that the Germans, Macron and Biden desperately tried to head off the war. From repeated trips or calls to Moscow to extracting assurances from Putin that an invasion wouldn’t happen.

One side started this war. I love Seeing you people vomit blood because the western countries are helping to arm Ukraine to resist their cowardly neighbor.

How people find a way of supporting an aggressor will always baffle me.

Putin started this unjust war for heaven's sake. He is just embarrassed that what he thought would be a 3 day special military operation, is already a 1 year plus war.

I am sure of one thing here: whichever way this war ends, Putin will think twice before attacking any of his neighbor next time.

Emmanuel909090:
When you see an unproductive woman avoid her in every means necessary, so if the man was late ashawo is her only source of income,?

I really don't know how we got here, failed society.

Guy the matter tire me...

The husband has failed in his responsibility, the only option left for the woman is to start sleeping with another woman's husband so as to survive.

And nobody seems to be concerned about the wife and children of the sugar daddy; whom as far as I am concerned are the real victims here.

...make we just dey play...

pansophist:


Situations like this is why it is advisable for women to have a job somehow, and their own money. Then she will have the ability to act in a way that is respectable.

Since the man has checkout by action, then she should do the same. If he is there for the kids, then good, if not, she should take care of the kids alone with all the help she can get.

You can't negotiate from a position of weakness, and if you do, the deal will be a punishment to the weakling than uplifting. Forcing someone into polygamy through the barrel of a gun is not a fair deal.

He should have asked her that before going to impregnate another woman. He is not a good man. So in her case, she will suffer in any path she takes. If she becomes the second wife (in practice she is even if she is the first), the home will be worse that a prison for her.

If she choose to raise the kids alone, she will retain her self respect, the world will respect her, and it's a position of strength. She will only suffer materiallly, physically, but her soul will be at peace, and the burden of conscience will be on him.

I'll advice she go with the second option.

I must confess, you are sound in mind and in wisdom.

You are so practical and real in the advice you dish out.

Much respect to you.

Warm regards.

boss . Please be my mentor

I'm still at beginner learning when it comes to programming.
Aside that, I have since left writing of codes like over 2 years now.

dreamxhaser:


Have you been to a clubhouse before

Do you know the amount of bad stuffs going on there.

We dey tell una from experience, una no wan hear

Continue

Some people will only learn by their own experiences.

Let's hope her's will have a happy ending.

Half a word is enough for the wise.

Guyman01:
fergie001 is experienced in politics and knows how to discuss political issues with decorum whilst keeping his bias in check and he has been active in politics here for long.

I think he is capable and understands Nairaland rules if he is interested

I support this recommendation.

Fergie001 would be a good fit for this role.

Lately, it seems Kwankwaso grabs the news headlines only when he talks about Peter Obi.

Love him or loathe him, Peter Obi is the man of the season.

A new Nigeria is POssible!

Gentlealibu:
Oh! I successfully built it years ago and have already added 3 rooms ensuite to the initial room and parlor.

Congrats bro.

placeofallure:
Na Obishit state. He's been looking for goodwill jolly rides to validation; he should go and pick up the hospital bills.

It seems you have something personal against Peter Obi. What could that be?

Oluneutral:
You all need to relax.
He who wants to be deceived can be deceived. It's not the first time the op is eulogizing his wife here. Exactly last year, he opened a similar thread of how his wife fed him. On another thread, he described how much gifts his wife showered him with. The problem with some people is that, they don't want others to be happy the way they are, and one of the strategies to achieve this is by constantly dissuading people to tow their paths, unfortunately, some easily-deceived-folks couldn't see the handwritings on the wall, they just blindly and ignorantly follow the evil advice. Anyway, no sympathy for them anyway. I'm sure, @op will be laughing at them in his closet after dishing out his callous advice to the ignoramus.

Where he claimed his wife melted his heart.

https://www.nairaland.com/6924286/how-heartthrob-just-melted-heart.

Nobody having a stable and good marriage relationship will be against getting married or be bitter towards any gender.

Seeing his recent posts against getting married, I thought maybe he has divorced or having serious issues with his wife.

Anyway, irrespective of what people are posting on nairaland, those who are serious about getting married are getting married; those who are not serious about getting married are never short of reasons why marriage or men/women are terrible.

...las las everybody go dey alright...

buygala:


Nigerian Law provides for the legal process of marriage..

It doesn't provide for that process to be carried out twice by the same person, unless the earlier one has been annulled



If you still don't understand, please keep moving

Interesting!

So how do we explain polygamy that is common place in the North and even among some of our parents.

brain54:
Some people will call it inferiority complex…

But life sopose no too hard Abeg.

Before small small things become complex and complicated issues. People should know their capacity and what they can deal with.
