See there no justification for this pure greed......do know our much my wife save up.

In this my same area we got to found out pure company was selling bag for 300 and retailers were selling for 600.

It won't just make sense for me to snap those things she got and how angry we are with the ripped off since buying from those greedy retailers.

The soap I use i got it for 700 the last time my wife wife bought the pack (6pieces) 2400.

There is a particular sweet she loves the aboki sells 2 50 and even tells my wife he just pity her that he gains nothing selling that price....she got the pack for 450 (40 pieces) inside.

People in trade fare pay tax even there shops is even more expensive....from our place to trade fare she spent 2k to and fro so there is absolutely no justification for such greed.

Since you and your wife knows the source, open a shop and start the business and control your price let's see how long you will last.

If you goto China to buy where people from trade fair buys you will still come here to shout how people from trade fair and buying cheap and selling too high to us.

You can as well goto China and cut off trade fair people.

This is definitely coming from a salary earner with no understanding of what business is.

You think business is about emotions or good man show?

Let me point the facts to you.

You said you bought a pack of your soap for ₦7,000 (6pc in it) that's approximately ₦1,170 per pack but retailers sell ₦1,700 per pack.

That is a difference of ₦530 profit per.

You calculated their profit per pack but removed eyes from their cost.

Are you aware that before leaving the market, agberos will take their levy?
Trade fair security will take their levy too
They will transport back to their base/shop
They will pay Malama in and out of the market to carry their goods?
When they get to the shop, they will pay shop rent
They will pay local govt tax
They will pay lawma
They will pay NEPA bill
They will buy fuel for generator
They will even pay sales girl (if they have)
They will also feed and pay themselves from the business.
They will even factor risk of goods getting spoilt or expired in their shop.

You didn't factor all these because you think business is a charitable cause where someone slaves for you to get things for free.

If it is easy, quit your job and start up a business

The stupid act of media trial must be put to a stop in Nigeria.

No develop nation does this and I wonder where our country learnt this stupid practice from.

Modern warfare now depends on technological advancements not manpower and this is where Israel edges Iran.

Iran has the manpower and missile stockpiles but Israel has cutting edge technologies that can turn them into dusts.

It's a case of quantity against quality, if not matched at relative ratios, quality will always defeat quantity and that is what Iran needs to realize and build up on

All the places they mentioned, one thing is common, they are Yoruba dominated axis in Lagos.

When you live where they dominate, expect things like this. Unnecessary fights and robberies.

Oshodi, Mushin, isolo, Iyana ipaja, bariga, abule egba, ayobo, Agege, pen cinema, obalende, etc these are hot beds for criminals and these crimes are carried out by jobless Yoruba youths who have destroyed their lives with drugs and smoke.

It is the Tinubu effect.

Tinubu is the greatest curse that ever happened to Yorubas but they didn't know.

I remember growing up, Yorubas used to be great academia, raking first positions in waec and jamb. They produced countless professors, in fact, Awolowo dedicated his life sponsoring free education for his people.

While Igbos were still recovering from the war and also delving into business, Yorubas were going to school and making the nation proud but immediately emilokan came with his Agbero regime they all abandoned class room and became lazy.

Majority now wants to cash out on free Money, jumping into thuggery, getting high on drug and abandoning school just to make money for their master.

A job that you need to spend your youthful age taking drugs, drink and smoking under sun to chase after vehicles. A job that many don't get up to 40yrs and are too weak to continue.

A job that is breeding cultism and gangsterism throughout South West. A job that only the top officials make the money while the youths burn themselves out.

When they join these union they begin to look haggered, smelly and homeless, leaving under bridges, defecating everywhere like mad people and robbing innocent passerbys to get drugs.

That cancer has now spread throughout South West that Igbos have now toppled them in waec and jamb.

Tinubu is a curse to Yoruba pple. Deep down you know he has destroyed your youths but you will still want to argue.

Politics at play here and it all boils down to one man, Benjamin Netanyahu.

Iran's attack did minimal damaged because 99% of the missiles were intercepted.

Iran on the other hand needed to save face in front of their people and proxies not to appear weak. That is why they informed US about the attack and extent it will go so the Israelis can prepare a defence.

Israel need not respond but BB Netanyahu needs to remain in power. His rating is all time low. He is no friend of Joe Biden and he needs the war to remain in power because during a war no election is held in Israel.

The war in Gaza is wrapping up so he needs to start this to extend his tenure.

If he attacks Iran, Iran will be forced to attack back causing a direct war between Israel and Iran

That puts Biden in a tough situation for the coming election.

If Biden neglects Israel, it lowers his ratings because Americans n her allies will say Biden neglected the only democracy in the middle East and their strongest ally.

If he supports Israel, it's another war started in the Biden administration after Ukraine and Sudan. That reduces his rating as people will question his leadership role in the world.

In all these it favours one man, Donald Trump and he is a very good friend of BB Netanyahu.

Trump needs Netanyahu as much as Netanyahu needs Trump

Fool. They paid you to run a smear campaign against Obi but as an illiterate you didn't know that Obi is a private citizen, without govt allocation, constituency remission and money to loot but Desmond Idiot is an elected official feeding fat on money meant for you and your poor generation

The billionaires will use it as another private vehicle to siphon more money with help from the government

I will confront the guy and talk to him as a gentleman to return back my phone but if he decides to be stubborn I will do what I know how to do best by arresting him with the aim of making him stay in police cell for atleast one week.

I hate it when parents do this.

If you can't involve the police or community leaders don't cause a scene. Forcing your daughter on a man that clearly doesn't want her is dangerous.

The union clearly will be a nightmare for that girl because that guy obviously don't want her and will make her life a living hell.

As a parent you will have to make hard decisions, as angry and disappointed you are do you want your daughter to die ?

Nijimog:
where is fuani showroom located

I think they are scattered across the country. You can do a google search of their location or visit their website

Hisense is a turn off.

Last year I needed a tv and I went to both Hisense and LG show rooms.

Though Hisense is cheaper but the picture quality was so poor I had to settle for LG which was way more expensive

Before that I went to so many stores even in Alaba international prices of tv are way cheaper and the prices scared me, I just knew they were refurbished then I went to fuani show room to get and their picture qualities are different

Gerrard59:
You are supposed to be the one to pay before the deadline. Let the landlord be reminded of your request for their bank details. You don't wait until you are reminded.

If I had my old phone I would have shown you a message dropped in our forum where landlord made it clear that nobody should pay money to him until he says so.

No dey talk wetin u no know. Just chill and pass

ednut1:
Dollar is dropping. Why are prices not dropping?

Basic economics will teach you that people will not suddenly reduce their price in the next 6 months or even a year that’s the baggage that comes with currency instability…

As an import dependant country, when dollar rose to 1,900 some people bought goods, some of those goods are in their shops while some are still on high sea, not yet landed. Those traders are in a mess right now because worse case scenario they will need to sell off those goods to atleast get their capital out first before we talk of price going down.

Long term Fx stability is what is needed to stable pricing …

market forces must move, and basic economics will come to play

gabbytabby:
Ole

You're hungry dude

gabbytabby:
See yourself you had the money but still you refused to pay and you are talking about people taking advantage of them please look in the mirror.

Sense is not in you at all.

Yes I had the money but everywhere i have lived it is the landlord or lawyer that calls to remind

Have you paid your rent or Nigeria is still dealing with you.

Whenever I see posts like this I pray from my landlord and his wife to have long life in good health.

I am an Igbo while my landlords are Yorubas from Ekiti but they are the best landlords have seen.

My rent expired since December last year and I was waiting for their calls or knock on my door but none. When landlady knocked on my door I thought she wanted to ask for her rent but she only came to ask for service charge because she needs the money to pay the security man, cleaners, estate security and lawma.

A week lady I paid her the service charge and was expecting she and her husband to talk about my rent but they didn't.

I waited January, February yet no words from them, I had to go meet them and told them myself that my rent has expired since December to my amazement they were like " my son just take your time, country is hard now so we understand, don't put yourself under pressure to put hands into wrong things. Go and sort other bills first when you have money you can pay your rent "

I was shocked, luckily I had no other bills because I already got my rent ready long ago and was only waiting for it to due before payment. That's how I paid and was wondering one kind of people are these?

I discovered that a neighbour that lost his job and has been struggling is owing them 2yrs rent and even the landlord some money. The man borrowed money from me and refused to pay, I was angry and reported to landlord that was when the landlady told me that the man is even owing 2yrs rent plus money the landlord loaned him to add to his business.

Landlady even said she was the one that loaned the wife some money to start a business to support her husband, I learnt she doesn't even allow wives of his tenants to be idle, she pressures them to do something to support their husbands and she has loaned some of them money to start business which they are still doing till today.

Those people are wonderful human beings and I pray people don't take advantage of their kind hearts to do them wrong and make them to change.

December last year, I gave them 25kg rice and groundnut oil as appreciation

I moved into the compound and walai my finances has improved, no more insomnia again. I love the place

If you spend it Na problem for you because it's an electronic transfer and your bvn can be blacklisted when discovered that the money has been spent.

This is how you can benefit from this.

First for all, do not report to the bank or the supermarket.

Just try to find who the CEO of that supermarket is then contact him.

Let him know about the transaction and your willingness to return it.

If you can't get the CEO make a public post about it on social media tagging the supermarket social media handle.

Doing so, will attract public opinion, insults and praises with some calling for your reward.

You may get a reward and who knows amebo media fit carry your stories before you know u don go viral and the gifts may start coming like mummy zee.

You know Nigerians and media hypes, capitalize on it

TravelOutNig:
There are options depending on the school:
Germany (but no visa appointments for about 18 months), Netherlands, Austria, Sweden, Norway

Then there are other countries with weaker economies:
Spain, Portugal, Italy, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia

All these countries would require you to learn the local language.

If I was in your shoes, I will focus on the following:
(a) Getting scholarships
(b) Getting work visa depending on your skills/job.

How can one with HND apply for scholarships in these countries you mentioned

Muslims will soon burn the church. Religion of peace my ass

Okoroawusa:
You didn't mention the other one.

Please hold that girl tight. Na wife material

Na mumu go see diamond and go for bronze.

Na my wife be that, only party remain to do

Then they decided to leave music to taste blood

I am glad that demented old mandate thief has begun digging his own grave because the west we use geopolitics to either throw him out or kill him

Don't mind these hypocrites.

They are playing mental games with the south. They don't see any money. It is just a mental game to paint northerners as sincere and trustworthy to remove our eyes from the actual stealing they are doing

If I may ask, who are the people in power stealing Nigeria's wealth?

How much Buhari and his family stole?

Should we talk about over ₦80bn stolen by the former accountant general of the federation?

Should we talk about the over ₦44bn stolen by former minister of disaster Shadia Farouk that stole over ₦60n? Should we talk about Halima Shehu the present minister that just stole ₦44bn? I can go on and on and they are mostly from the north and same Islamic faith but they will use these paupers to stage honesty act and the. Turn around to say northerners are sincere unlike the south.

SwayG:
This is amazing 👏.

I hope she stays true to you and eventually marry you.

Cos if not!
if she cheats or follows another man....Your tears will be so hot, painful and you won't be able to breathe.
That's if you don't fall into a longterm depression.

This may change your love life forever. A real definition of your heart is in her hands.

No don't worry. I know who I have

I met her at home

MyVILLAGEpeople:
So while you were going through all these challenges, she never cheated on you ?

When I say I met her at home, you understand what I mean

Draslo:
Sha be careful.

Don't worry, I dey safe hands.

The biggest material gift I have made for a woman is to my current partner. Paying her school fees from year one to presently 500L and putting her on a 15k weekly stipend till date (initially 5k weekly then 10k now 15k) and sometimes 100k to change clothes if fortune smiles on me.

Sounds surprising but babe paid her dues and won my respect.

I could remember living in a face me I face you, squatting with 3 other friends who couldn't get food talk more of wearing clothes. When many girls would hiss once I approach them, this girl said yes.

One reason I asked her out was so I could have someone atleast bringing me food because her mom had a rice and beans store but to my surprise she wasn't only bringing foodstuffs but was also bringing cooked food

She introduced me to using roll on and perfumes because I couldn't afford and she was buying them for me and I can't count how many times I begged and she loaned me small change to hold body and soul together... Woooo I can't count how far that babe went for me.

Fast forward to when she gained admission, her dad's job stopped and mom's business couldn't sustain the family but luckily I got a 45k a month job which I did and was sharing my small change with her to sustain pending when things get better for them.

The father didn't secure job till date and I grew, got a better job and later resigned to do my own hustle... I filled the gap

Stupid king Herod heard that United States slammed Binance with $40bn fine and the werey thought his US that can pull such weight.

Small nyash dey shake o

I so much love the song. I wish the song has more lyrics

Let her be. There is nothing in that social media other than learning bad habits.

My girl is very pretty too, totally natural light skinned, well endowed and never with make up but you will never see her come online whether tiktok, Facebook or Instagram

She is only active on WhatsApp and LinkedIn but doesn't post picture.

I have always loved quiet life and I love the fact that my woman is my perfect match.

7years together and it's total peace of mind, quiet, calm, respectful and supportive.

I love my life with her.
