I use a Nigerian host and this is my third year or so with the provider. I get massive support and my site barely goes down. The last time it did, they explained that they had issues at their data center. Trust me, there are incredible Nigerian web hosting companies and the one I use is superb!

Do you wake up to check from time to time between 12 AM to 5 AM before you conclude that the site barely have a downtime?

Hello Webmasters

I tried to register another domain with my webhost, but it turned out it was already registered even though their site said it could be registered

So the issue is I was charged already, then they said there would be a refund but since over a month now, they haven't done that

They just keep posting me and now they've stopped replying completely!

Please what can I do

This can only happen when you patronize cheap Nigeria hosting company.

I never said begging is ok, only stating the obvious, the camp or state you served matters in this,

when there is no light in the hostels what do you do?

people on the plus side can wear anything given at the camp, people on the slim side can't especially when no one is available to swap, it touches the ground especially if it's raining season and you know what that is.

coming to registration and clearance in camp, unless the photocopying machine is free plus peripherals used in holding documents in place gotten in the Mami market is free , some even charge to get your docs stapled.


You also stated 1k is enough for toiletries, tissue, soap, cream, wipes (as u don't get to bathe often or feel hot) , when you can't use the camp toilet especially if it's in a mess and cleaners don't want to clean it. we haven't even considered the ladies.

not all the food cooked in camp can be taken, you can get a runny stomach if care isn't taken.

then when you want to partake in other activities in camp , for certification or getting something that would help u out of camp ?


not everyone got enough money before coming to camp, some weren't privileged as you, clearance in some Nigerian institution can take everything u have before heading to camp. we haven't even talked about transportation for people coming from far.

I know of someone who brought a paint rubber of ijebu garri, big size milk n sugar just to scale through camp n the first week out of camp.

My brother, I'm not saying that going to camp with money isn't good or that 1k is enough, but when you don't have, what do you do? Steal, beg or kill yourself? No! You must learn to live within your means. I served in Mowe, Ogun State and I'm from Akwa Ibom. I know how I managed myself. You can choose to spend money if you have, but remember, there are people who are going to depend or live on what NYSC has to offer - completely! I was in that category during my time in camp and I'm still alive. Don't go overboard just to feel happy or rub shoulders with others. Imagine this, I'm from Akwa Ibom, never used to foods from the West but we were offered that and I ate with joy. I never had to reject. For me, it was an adventure - being subjected to a kind of rough life like you are in a war zone. But it was just for a period; it was a camp NOT my house. I knew I had only 21 days to spend there so I had to bear with the situation. Again, I'm still alive. If you can't resize your Kaaki, wear it that way and still be happy. Don't compare yourself with anybody.

Other camp activities? Please forget about them. Forget their certifications. Those papers are ripoff. They won't take you anywhere. If at all you want to learn something while in service, learn skills you can use to offer services online, e.g., how to write, graphic design, seo, mastering sound, video editing, and more. Don't go involving yourself in all kind of things. Focus on what is taking you there and even when you're posted to your PPA. Concentrate your mind on how you can develop yourself especially 'skillwise' and let every other thing be secondary and less important. Don't feel bad about anything, enjoy your life at your level. Cheers.

Read the screenshot below. I hope it helps

The screenshot isn't telling clear steps to go about it.

jeff1607:
seems you were provided all the stuff you needed during nysc or never experienced it at all

toiletries, food(provisions) etc , small cash to charge phone, registration, photocopies, adjustments to uniform etc

You don't need money to do registration of any form. You don't need money for food. You don't need money to charge phone. Wear your khaki the way it is if you can't adjust it. 1k can be enough for you till you leave the camp for toiletries and before you even leave the camp, NYSC would pay you some money to get settled. Don't have a beg anybody for anything. Believe in yourself. Believe in your God. Square up your shoulders and walk with dignity. You'll never become big when you beg, instead, learn to give from the little that you have.

Truth is, its difficult to get a good contraceptive and it depends on her body too.

What works for another lady might not work for her. Even the IUCD is a silent killer, pills comes with its wahala too.

Op should just study his wife's cycle so he can tell when she is on her safe period or when she is ovulating so as to know when to use condom and when not to.

How do you determine when it's safe period please?

MaziRidwan:
I wish God could send me a helper. NYSC camp is next week and I'm yet to get basic stuffs needed as I'm financially stranded. Things like this makes you depressed despite all your effort.

STFU. What basic stuff do you need more than packing your clothes into a bag and getting ready to move? Or you just want to show that you can beg?

I need mature advice from nairalanders.

Let's talk in private.

gideon286:
As a beginner, you don't need a website for your product, you only need to run the Facebook Ads (make sure you specialize on female beauty products) put the link to your telegram channel, chat up customers ready to buy and deliver the goods to them in whatever means you prefer...

I want to go into FACEBOOK ADS PROPER now

Hope someone is following?

I'm feeling sleepy already

Hello Nairalenders,

Please, I need your advice experienced medicine graduates, students and consultants.

I am a 19-year-old medicine (MBBS) aspirant. I have written three jamb and MBBS admission has not come my way.

I applied twice in ui and once in Unilag.
For the unilag admission, I was 11 marks below the cut off mark in 2017.

In 2018, I was 2 marks below the cut off mark in ui.
This year, my aggregate is relatively low.

Now, I need advice on:
1. How to score 340+ in the forthcoming (2020) utme.
2. How to re strategize
3. How to eliminate boredom while reading/preparing.

4. Materials/books I can prepare with.

Also, I'll be glad to learn from your experience.

Thanks in anticipation.


PS: My utme score has always been between 280-318

Don't give up young lad. Whatever happen, pursue that course. Med&Sug seems to be the only course that works in Nigeria.

I have just one observation of this Cyril Ramaphosa. He's a very clueless man.

Very likely. He talks like one that's out of touch with reality.

Na dem

Yahoo pastors

Kids of this days are too obsessed with religion and pastors

Mostly the illiterate ones see this fraudulent men parading themselves as men of god as God himself, they hardly think otherwise the pastors direct them.

To me and my household we will remain Catholics, there facts have been teaching not illusions. Holy Rosary is my favourite prayer that brings miracles I desire.

I don't need a pastor to lay evil hands on my head with olive oil in his left hand

Don't talk like you know too much. Today maybe yours, you don't know tomorrow.

I dont have thoughts on this as such.
Am doing a project on 'Gender based difference in correctional measures of primary/sec schools'

correctional measures includes caning suspension expulsion hard labour etc
my emphasy is on caning.

I need ur examples from ur school days

goggle does'nt give much answers which includes personal experiences

I know some people may come here just to abuse and insult me

I dont worry since i have seen enough insults and mockery since i was born.

Even if u must abuse me,
dont fail to add your own examples from ur school days

If you are carrying out a study on this, use SurveyMonkey to create a questionnaire and then share the link to people.

How can you say that he's an efik man? Are you sure you lived in calabar

That's how they talk like foools here. Obla is now an Efik man.

My brother, you've got to fight like a man. Men shouldn't be talking about depression because they can't find something to do. If no one's willing to employ you, then create a job for yourself and channel all your energy and resources into it to make it work.

As a person, I'd say that Nigeria has taught me a lesson. It's not about going to school to acquire a degree but learning a skill that you can depend on for your daily bread. I will never make a mistake of sending any of my children to any archaic Nigeria universities. From the moment they understand themselves to human, I'd get them to start learning something. Of course, YouTube can help. Such could be software development, web development, mastering the English language or learning any foreign language. As they grow, I can introduce them to some real hard stuff, e.g., mechanic, sewing, etc. After years of skill acquisition, before, during and after secondary education, they can now go to a tertiary institution (that's if they still want to, because acquiring a degree in this country seems to be a waste of time and resources).

To survive as one from a humble background in a country like ours, you must master at least five good skills (soft skills preferably). You can't put your hope on working for the government or any private organization after school in Nigeria. That's failure. Tertiary education isn't a priority anymore in Nigeria. Everyone's suffering.

The way forward especially for you is looking for something you can do to eat and then start learning a skill that can make you money in the next 4-6 months. Take your mind off the government; take your mind off corporate organizations. Look inward. What can you do to make money legitimately? Go for it! God's alive and He will crown your effort with success. Plan your life; see the bigger picture - one or two years from now!

Stop drawing sympathy from people. Rise up and fight. Encourage others to face life squarely. No one's going to make it happen for you if you don't rise up to fight. Life is fight brother. Put on a good fight. Stay away from negative businesses. Stay far away from them. God's aware of everything. Do your best and leave the rest for Him. No desperation but thinking, strategizing and putting lots of hard work. This is just a summary of my life story. If you need more inspiration, send me a PM.

@op

At this point, there's no need to blame anyone. It won't change anything. Look at your mom as someone that is sick and needs help. Sickness isn't only when you are confined to a sick bed. I strongly suspect that your mom is depressed for whatever reason and needs to be counseled and prayed for. I don't know her, but for what I'm reading here, most times, she do regret her actions [even when you don't know], but doesn't know how to tame the voices in her head.

I'm very sure that she wasn't like this when she was young or in school. What happened? A number of factors could have a hand in this.

1. She might be harboring unforgiveness and finding it difficult to let go which led to her being depressed.

2. It could be that she promised someone marriage and disappointed the person, and then the person said to her, "Hey, you'll never enjoy your marriage to that man."

4. The devil might just be using her to shatter the family because your dad is making progress in life. I tell you, the best way to destroy yourself is making so much money in life without any root in God.

My advice to you: love your mom, forgive, and pray for her. Pray until she sense that you are praying for her. Since she's not physically sick, it may be hard for your dad to know what to do, but trust me, mom needs help. Don't just express your frustrations against her, take calculated steps to reclaim her from the devil.

Lastly, I wouldn't be ashamed to recommend you take her to SCOAN in Lagos. The family must remain together. Luckily, Ogun state is a stone throw from Lagos.

Yeye INEC /BuhariApC...!

They just don't want okorocha to spoil the show of shame. They don't want igbos to be principal officers of NASS.

It's now obvious that BuhariApC and INEC are one .

Just keep quiet bros. You guys talk too much without reasoning. Every thing that happens in Nigeria is always against the Igbos. Who raised the alarm that he declared Rochas a winner under duress? Was it not an Igbo man? Now, you are making noise like it was Northerners that planned the whole thing? Let me tell you, the problem of the Igbos is the man they see in front of a mirror.

What CMS are you on... WordPress abi??

Yes. WordPress.

This is how Google shows my search result:

SEO title - Site name

Where "articles" is a category on the site.

This is what I want:
SEO title - Site name
https://example.com/seo-title

However, I will prefer this:

Can you help out please?

Moral Lesson: Money that you can't afford to let go, don't borrow people.

Moral rubbish! Who said he borrowed the guy money?

You are in Lagos and this is happening to you when the solution you need is staring right at you. I don't see any problem here.

optm:
you can't manage it yourself. u'll need to visit ur eye doc to help you get better. like I stated earlier, there a number of conditions that could present with such symptoms and only by an eye exam would one be able to tell what actually could be the cause of yours and after which a treatment plan can be proffered. why don't u just make out time and schedule a visit ?

I will do just that then.

optm:
there re a number of eye problems that could present with these symptoms you re having and it would have to take an examination to corroborate your complaints in order to know what is and how best to go about the treatment. I advice you go see ur eye doc to have it examined.

Alright. Thank you so much for your response. The point is that I'm someone that uses Computer a lot so I suspect it could be from there but sadly I can't stay away from Computer at this time. Don't really know how to manage the situation.

Hello Doctor, I'm having challenges with my eyes and I believe you can help me. I do feel as if there's a tiny object in my eyes and it itches a lot when I try checking what's there. Sometimes, tears do drop from the eye and other times the tears becomes perperish and I would have to wash my face before I feel okay. Some days, when I wake up from sleep, I noticed i can't really open my eye lids (kind of) because it's gummy until I wash my face. What's wrong with me please?

Cyberleets:
It's still very much in play...
Like i said, a website with better content can rank for a keyword even without backlink!...the keyword won't be a competitive one tho.

no one fully knows Google algorithms... the like to confuse people

What metrics define a less competitive keyword please?

Wow. Can I call them from Ikorodu?

My only problem with this man is that he talks too much. Men don't talk like this.
