Vanpascore: Do you even understand the main issue here? Forcing you to buy something? There are more to this . . .
Whatever sh!t happens now, Tinubu caused it. If he had a plan of how to remove the subsidy, we wouldn't be where we are today. They wouldn't be so much hardship in Nigeria today.
You can't just be an online platform when you are talking about housing. Is it online that you will give me the house? Tell me your physical address so I can take you serious.
H28Africa: The National Housing Fund is a government-backed program that provides loans of up to 50 Million Naira to first-time home buyers in Nigeria.
Try to google the NHF Act of 1992.
We will discuss this extensively on the day of event.

Blaze14k: I would like to use this opportunity to seek guidance based on the issue I have on ground. I believe it's igbos especially elderly person who is in a better position to give me a reasonable explanation. I told my mum my girlfriend is from ohafia, abia state and she instantly told me I can't get married to her. Her reason is because people from ohafia, arochukwu, izombe, and few other places in abia state are regarded as OSU. I complained to other members of my family but they also rejected her.
I have made some research personally and found out people from other part of igboland marry from those places. Now my question is why are they strongly rejecting her cos it doesn't make sense to call everybody from different local government in abia state OSU.
I've made more research on the girls family and found out they are king makers and her father belongs to eze's cabinet.
Her father and mine are no longer alive. They both have a traditional title and belong to eze's cabinet too. Please I need your advice cos I really want marry this girl. I also know that people encounter alot of difficulties when they want to get married. So I need a clarification from someone who has extensive knowledge on igbo tradition. Thank you.
A mom is a mom. She's the remaining parent for you right now and surely have a say in your life. The elders are even with her. So, what exactly can I say? Sincerely, I can't go against her. She may be wrong but I can't go against her words, especially when even the elders are with her.
However, if I were in your shoes, I'll seek a higher authority if I can't hear from God. And I'll recommend that for you. Seek God's face through His true prophets or go with your mom. Don't override her except you hear from God.
dboY1123: My previous post about a big school that called me for an Interview, Well I actually went there, did my test and when I was asked to come in for Micro Teaching where I was faced with Staff of the school and maybe the principal, I flopped and panicked heavily.
The fear was well written all over my face and I was just saying rubbish despite choosing to teach "Matter" as my topic. Immediately I came in and they asked for my name and few other questions before the micro teaching, my voice was already shaking as if I have never taught before in my life(they noticed and told me to calm down).
Although I am an introvert, I hardly face audience talk more of strangers and the quest to ensure that I performed, those things enveloped/swallowed me completely. I have never taught in such a big school before, I think my qualification was what made them approach me in the first place.
One of the staff kept throwing questions at me, I mean confusing questions just to know my depth of knowledge in the particular topic, and guess what? I flopped totally and became disorganized. But luckily, there was a man among the panel who gave me the option of coming back and prove myself that I am a qualified teacher as stated in my CV or I should take another topic I'm more comfortable with. So, I opted to leave and come back so I can regain my confidence.
Now, I have been given enough time to go and make research and convince them on Monday. How do I conquer that fear and what are the things they look so I can prepare hard. Thank you.
You were just too serious. Next time, calm down and talk. Sometimes, you can even switch to pigin, then switch back. If possible, say something to make them laugh before you start talking. That will calm your nerves and helps you see them as friendly.
Most importantly, just know all of them on that panel are poorly paid and their mind isn't much in what they are doing sef. They don't have anything to gain in running you down. So, just be yourself and talk. All of you are at the same level—just managing.
You can even choose not see them as staff of the school or adults, but as your students or siblings. It's a simple stuff bro. Just go and teach them as though you are teaching children. Most likely, you'll answer most of their questions. Be bold to tell them you can't answer some of their questions.
Collinsemegreat: I have plan with the third and second option.
Get funds through the job for MSc in Public Health while on the job as Marketing affords the time, then get out to NGO.
The shortest method to succeeding in NGO is building from ground up, doing consultancies here and there, and getting all the referees/recommendations from senior staff.
You can't just break in there to do something better (let's say an officer position) because you have an MSc in Public Health. Remember, you'll be having zero NGO experience. They won't even want to see your banking experience. It'll sort of work against you having a BSc in Medical Biochemistry, worked as a bank marketer, then, acquired MSc in Public Health to run to NGO. That's confusion. Consider your future more than today, at least you are not begging. Take your time and build yourself.
If you are going to the bank, take the IT option along and forget about NGO/Public Health.
Ourlord: Please guys, pls if anybody can help me with any little amount to eat I will be very happy. Feeding is a big problem for me and my family please no matter how small.

Now we can't even eat or buy water to drink. Please if you're reading this message pls come to our aid, no matter how small it will go a long way pls. May God meet you at the point of your need as you have show us mercy Acct num: Oyom Ubi
Studying Medical Biochemistry and pursuing a career in the banking/finance sector doesn't make much sense. I understand you have to eat but I don't see you growing in the finance sector. Sooner or later, you'll sort of regret going there. I am saying this because your background isn't strong in banking/finance. I don't know how you are going to start building on Medical Biochemistry to support your banking career.
Do you think the bank will regard your degree in Medical Biochemistry? I doubt. Again, you can't even take advanced courses in banking/finance because you don't have the qualification. Forget that you are scaling through the interview. It's a trap because they know you don't have a background there and promotion is going to be hard for you. I would've encouraged you to take the offer if you studied something like Marketing, Banking/Finance, or any other finance-related course. Trust me, it's easy for banks to employ people that don't have a background in banking/finance than for them to employ those that studied banking/finance.
Consider your degree first in any work that you want to do except you want to go there and struggle. Promotion becomes easy when your course of study is relevant to your job, even if it's in the civil service, it's the same. So, I'll encourage you to look beyond today.
Way forward: 1. Build from your background/degree and go up from there else the degree won't be of much value to you in other areas that the degree isn't relevant. Hence, see how you can start doing something in your field even if it means starting small. 2. Keep your present job and switch to IT. Do a professional course (e.g., web programming, android development, cybersecurity, etc.) so in future, you can work from home for yourself. 3. Seek to volunteer in a very good NGO while switching to relevant NGO courses via PGD => M.Sc (e.g., Demography, Community Development, International Development, Project Management, Public Health, Social Work, etc.). Once you've established your area of development work, you'll also need to acquire some relevant professional certifications.
Final note: Don't go to the bank. Even if you do M.Sc in Medical Biochemistry. They won't regard it. By the way, once you join them, you may not have time to study again.
Collinsemegreat: Good day everyone, I recently scaled through an interview with a popular bank as a Marketing Associate. I currently work as a contract Aviation Security Officer... The New role seems like a contract too but provides better pay and benefits with better career opportunities.
But I am kind of afraid to take a leap I am certainly not sure of... I need people who are in this career part to show me what I am going to face with the new role.
pol23: There should be a process to follow. Nigeria government just dey act e no concern me. You don’t stop importing Rice without having your own Rice enough for your population. I remember when I wanted to buy another car, so I had to sold my old car to add up, but I made proper plan on how to get to work and I know I will be attending a wedding, I already approach a friend to lend me his car… it all went smoothly as plan… But in Nigeria, one idiot will just make give order without plan… see this subsidy matter now… everywhere don gbez.
I like the fact that you truly understand the problem of Nigeria. Trust me, it's not like they don't know, they don't just care. They don't care about the people; they don't care about the country. And by the time the repercussion of their action strikes, they behave as though they care, meanwhile, they know exactly how they pulled the plug and let things collapse.
Nigeria is just a rubbish place. I've never seen a country that its leaders don't have any iota of love for it or its people. Look at someone like Akpabio that have been in government since God knows when is still the same person fueling corruption in the national assembly; same with Tinubu, and the rest of them. What money do these men want to make again even at the expense of the country? If Tinubu loved this country in the first place, he wouldn't have contested knowing fully well that he's sick and lacks the strength to govern this country. To make matters worse, he's now settling his corrupt party members with ministerial and other positions. Would the country ever make sense? This is even happening after Buhari's eight years doing nothing.
Look at how the country's economy is dwindling; look at how inflation and hardship is dealing with the people, yet these guys don't care. I bet you the FG can fix all our refineries within three months to stabilize the economy but they won't do it. I bet you they can work closely with states to unbundle power generation and distribution within three years and ensure we have 24/7 light but they won't do it.
Many times I'll keep wondering and becoming very sad about Nigeria. We are just suffering for nothing. I don't see any reason that people from a country blessed with enormous natural resources can be suffering the way we suffer in Nigeria. I'm not even talking about roads. Within the city of Calabar as I speak to you, lots of streets have gone very bad, yet the government doesn't care.
We are just there surviving while 1% of the country's population swallow all the good of the land.
pol23: Orders up and down… Shey na so dem dey do things. No strategy. No planning. No form work. No case study. You can also order dollar to be $1 to N1. Rada rada. The easy way to stop the naira from falling is to reduce our dependency. Build refinery (that might take more than 8 years though) Let’s stop importing wheats (that we can achieve in 18 months, if serious) Let’s stop fish importation. Fabrics. And pretty much every nonsense we keep importing while we have the capacity to grow it or produce it in here. But our leaders are always lazy and they don’t care about the future of the country…. It’s all about doing yeye project…. Nobody thinks about Wealth creation for the next generation. Mr Bola Tinubu no try at all.
All those things you are calling on the government to stop people from importing, I hope if they stop importing them today, you'll have enough of them to consume. That's how you guys were asking the government to stop rice importation. Where are we today on that?

Babe1994: I’m working, I’m doing averagely okay. I can do better which I’m striving towards at the moment. Having a child really set me back but I’m getting there. The most important thing is that I have money coming in every month and I have a very supportive family.
Have a hard talk with him. Listen closely to what he says and follow him up for corresponding actions.
If he's not ready to adjust and live responsibly, then you should consider living.
However, having just a child can't stop you from getting married again. The most important thing is to take care of yourself and your child right now.
A particular moderator I don't want to mention his name but his a notorious tribalistic mod, always create post after I might have created a post, and close my thread saying the thread has been created.
Then stop creating threads. You ain't paid for it. Use that time to engage in other meaningful things.
Children are smarter now o. My nephew that the father just said he shd try GCE in SS1 na so the boy get 4As oooo. In SS1.
He did jamb in SS2 that is this year and he got 339 to study medicine in uni lag. If you guide Ur children properly from a very tender age, they turn out to be outstanding but most parent no care abt their children academics na money dem they chase up and down.
They don't care because they don't have the time. They don't have the time because poverty is dragging them.
Ttalk: "President Tinubu said every effort across sectors will be documented and periodically reviewed for performance verification and public presentation."
This is one of the critical things Nigerians should look out for in any government, periodic review and evaluation of government policy'
It is very clear that Tinubu knows what he is doing and he is committed and devoted to his conviction. It is now left for the citizen to key into the government programs and development plans.
Constructive criticism is welcome, but the type of hatred coming out from Obidients and certain regions is unfortunate, let us support this administration for a greater Nigeria because if it fails we'll all share in the failure
Modified: it is not enough to criticize but to offer an alternative solution that can form a public opinion that the government would implement, so far, many comments below are just abuse and insult with no solution
You feel the government don't know the solution to the myriads of Nigeria challenges? You'll be deceiving yourself if you think they don't know. Be there talking like a defeated person. That's your business.
FreeStuffsNG: Smh. Wetin concern France , US etc again after Ecowas has passed a resolution and asked for AU and UN to endorse it? Does he not know that this is no longer Nigeria or even Ecowas or AU business again once these global agencies approve the resolution?
This is a Senator who has been officially communicated to by the Senate President delivering the letter of the President, stating in black and white that the action being taken against Niger is Ecowas resolution yet, if this is a true report, he is sounding so clueless and out of point. The Senate President better call him to order or the Senate summon him to come and explain the relationship of this post with the official letter read to them by the Senate President.
This kind of recklessness imposes a serious diplomatic problem when one is (mis)using his Senator of FRN status to dabble into international issues which he or she doesn't understand or understand but chose to be mischievous.
You are talking nonsense.
Before being a member of ECOWAS or its chairman, you are first a Nigerian and a brother to the Niger people. We are first, Africans. The reason and impact of the war should first be a consideration, especially when it involves a very close neighboring country.
There are so many Nigerians in Niger. We also have so many Nigeriens here in Nigeria. Nigeria have a very strong cultural and bilateral ties with Niger. Why on earth a Nigerian being the head of ECOWAS orchestrate a war again them? Meanwhile, we are supposed to use our position in ECOWAS to suppress the thoughts of member countries settling for the war option.
Nigeria can singlehandedly deter ECOWAS from invading Niger because Nigeria runs the show in ECOWAS. Stop supporting every foolish action from your god.
It's very important that sensible people exonerate themselves about the war now so tomorrow your type won't say it was a collective agreement of the NASS.
Let's allow the Niger people to decide how they want to be governed.
Personally, I see this as a simple stuff. You don't necessarily need someone to rate your music for you. The simple thing is to put it side by side with one of the best in your genre. So, the most important thing is to first understand your music genre, then compare your production with the best there.
There's no point trying to say I'm up&coming musician because no one is going to wait for you; no one is going to patronize your brand if it doesn't make sense.
For this one right here, it's bad. Go listen to the best guys in your genre and produce something that's better than theirs' else don't waste your time doing music.
If they love you and you go astray, they'll call you to order. They don't glorify laxity.
If all the regions in Nigeria will behave this way, Nigeria would have been a better place for all of us.
Even you are talking nonsense. Is it only the Igbos calling the man out? Ethnic champion! I wonder where all these foolish identification with a particular ethnic group have taken you guys to.
