Have I met any of these people you want to share my numbers with before?
The dispatch guy has met this lady and likes her

So what is wrong when after you meet someone and you like her, nex is shoot your shot and wait for a Yes or No. If no then move

The dispatch rider effed up.

He should have shot his shot in person when he met her, gauged her reaction and sought her consent before going the phone route.

Something like, "I didn't wanna take this order but having met you I'm glad I did. Damn, you're fyyne and have brightened up my day". Do you mind if I buzz you when I get off work?

He'd have most likely received a NO due to his looks and the difference in economic levels but hin don shoot hin shot, sabi how the babe rate am and he'd keep it moving.

(I once read a story on NL about how a dispatch rider did a delivery to a babe, and how the babe contacted the guy because dude was very fyne and articulate, and they started dating).

He crossed the line by chatting her using the phone number he was given for delivery without seeking her consent.

In this life, get sense.

Edit:

@ GloriousGbola, you once asked how I take land my madam. Na the format above I use. I was working the registration desk of a conference and one of those documenting people. As I dey register madam, I chyke am say na now I know why dem put me for the committee, and assign me to deskwork today. I asked for her number, and her response was "but you already have it' making reference to the entry in the logbook which included people contacts. So I later buzz am, and it took off from there. We don do 8 years now.

End.

I support Simi's dragging though
She's more of an emotional fool and I am glad AG was dragged into it.
As a man if you can't control or manage how your wife lose her mouth online be ready to get same reaction from people

Hmm, Simi effed up but I do not support AG being dragged for it.

Simi is a grown adult, not a minor. She's a wife and not AG's subordinate. She has agency, freedom of expression and does not need control or supervision.

She should be held accountable for her words and actions. Dragging her hubby because he did not manage her mouth be like say na him be her owner.

It's unfortunate that AG was dragged into her ish but hopefully she has learnt the hard lesson that her family is not off-limits to internet people and will be dragged if she talks recklessly.

DissTroy:
True. The whole point isn't even recording - it's having evidence. For example, I hold most chats on Whatsapp. I don't delete messages with females (no matter how nasty and explicit) and I'd just archive them. I don't hold such anywhere else. I just backup my chats regularly, including raunchy media any must have sent - as it. I forget such conversations or people even. I still have chats with exes and randoms from 2014 or so. With images and videos shared.

And I don't chat with females who use disappearing messages or delete chats.

And I mentioned about choosing women wisely who have shown 100% loyalty. You date and marry a Tonto Dike and you deserve what you get. Or all these "purrr" females; or the ones with tags.

Also quell allegations immediately. I once told mine, 'Why did you chat me up to say I hurt you? You know it's because I dismissed what you said when you went on and on about XYZ. What if someone reads your chats like your sister or friend, wouldn't the assumption be that I physically hurt you? Is it deliberate?' It was the last time she did it and she'd rather talk about her concern in person.

If she had continued, then it would have been intentional. I don't keep female besties - any woman I am committed to is my bestie while it lasts so of course I have to be free around her.

Imagine your wife being hit in the face by the edge of the door on her own or by the kids mistakenly. Her face is swollen then she wants to go for a family function or work or church...

No, madam, you will treat it first. Thousands of people will see it and assume her husband beat her up.

If they have a breakup or enstraged in the future, those people will testify they saw her with swollen face.

See, you have to be preemptive about these things.

Society is merciless to men regarding these issues. As a man, society deems you a monster by default. Your whole life is proving you are not. Neo Akpofure just found out yesterday.

1. Your wife chats you that you hurt her, and your first instinct is not "how, what did I do?" Instead, you overanalyze her wording and get annoyed. You interrogate het and question her motive. You wonder who might see the chat and screenshot it. You frame it like she's trying to set you up. Ko buru.

2. Your wife mistakenly hits her face on a door and it swells. You stop her from going to a family function, church or work because of optics. Because people might assume wrongly. Because people go talk. Because in your head, future witnesses are already lining up to testify for something that never happened.

You do not trust your wife. You suspect and are negatively perceptive about everything. That's siege mentality, and I gats say you're imprisoned by your inordinate fear, negative perception and distrust of women, and really no one should be living like that.

Ja ara eh.

Egbon DissTroy, biko e don do o.

Na times like this I dey wish say NL.get voice message feature cos many things dey for mind to talk but laziness no gree me to type.

Continue to do you but at the end of the day, me know say peace of mind is better than 15gb of archived chats.

Safe.

DissTroy:
Men are just realizing to have proof? Audio, video, text, pictures... Save every evidence.

https://x.com/i/status/2023856448854503490

Archive chats with women but never deleted. Save evidence then backup to a dedicated Gmail account. Gmail free version is 15GB. Save fo the drive. Add your trusted account so in case you ever lose login access, you can use an alternate login method.


Protect yourself. Even that coworker can accuse you. Save chats and call logs.

If that side girl calls you she's coming over, record it then. Chat her up like you could barely hear her so she responds. Screenshot then save. When she gets home, casually talk about activities while you did together before she went back home. No less than 12 years of saving evidence on my end.

War-reading even though I hope I never have to shot a cannon in defence. But stack up your armoury.

Neo is being asked to defend himself despite the girl no providing time, date, visual evidence like chats or anything.

You are

🔸Recording and saving call logs
🔸Archiving every chat
🔸Backing up to Gmail and Drive
🔸Preparing alternate logins
🔸Saving 12 years of evidence

When relationship with dem XX turn counter-terrorism operation?

Also, you assume every female co-worker is a threat, every lady is a future accuser and potential litigation.

Isn't the paranoia, constant scanning for danger and hypervigilance draining you? I mean, you can't be at ease living like this.

Make you take am easy o. Life is to be lived at ease and enjoyed, not lived in anxiety and fear.

Osimhen said he encouraged his teammates after the third goal to score more so they would have a better advantage in the return fixture

Victor Osimhen: "Üçüncü gol sonrası topu aldım evet 2-3 yeterli değil bu takımlara karşı. Sürpriz yapabilecek kapasitelerini biliyoruz. Daha fazla gol atman gerekir. Topu taşıdım, takımı motive etmek için. Daha fazlasını atabilirdik. İkinci maç var."pic.twitter.com/CfVVybB2Gb

lbrichman2:
Osimhen...

Where and when did Osimhen say this?

GloriousGbola:
And If he continued to insist and drag and bait you?

He is the one taking Sophie to court to drag for custody. He is not being blocked from imade. He is not paying imades school fees.

He initatiated a completely unnecessary court case. If you initiate a court case especially a civil one, your character is going to be dragged in court, because in the end it comes down to if you can be perceived as a responsible person.

Someone whose son died under his roof, who is chasing OF thot, who is always in the news for the wrong things has no business going to court to drag for matters like this.

I align with the emboldened but I blame not Davido but his lawyers.

Many lawyers are dishonest people and are not always forthright with their clients. They'd gass their clients up and spin a completely hopeless case to make them feel like they'd win so they can open office on their heads., and that's what I suspect has happened here.

Now make we check am.

🔸Imade is 11 years old, and she has lived with her mum since she was born. Sophia has been her primary caregiver and only permanent presence in her life.

🔸Imade lives and schools permanently in Lagos. She has a stable home-life, has built a life filled with relatives and friends in this familiar environment.

🔸Davido on the other hand does not have a permanent home-base. He has two home bases, Lagos and Atalanta, and his time is split between the two places.

🔸Even when he's in Nigeria, he spends an extended amount of time travelling and performing in shows, recording in studio, attending events, going clubbing etc

🔸So when he's away doing all these stuff, who will be parenting Imade? Shey na nanny, or his extended family members/relatives?

🔸The truth is Imade needs hands-on parenting and Davido would have been an absentee parent. He is neither equipped or has the time to give his daughter hands-on parenting.

🔸Davido has always had visitation rights. I've seen videos of Davido taking Imade on outings so I'm certain the visitation rights were not restrictive and supervised, other than not being able to travel with Imade.I consider this to be very reasonable terms. That is enough.

🔸The joint custody suit was an ego trip and should never have been filed. It emanated from his bruised ego of being prevented from travelling with Imade by Sophia and her uncle Dele Momodu years ago but he should have gotten over that hurt by now.

🔸Davido lawyers no do well. The case should have been quietly withdrawn long before now cos there was no way an unbiased judge would have granted Davido joint custody.

if this should come through , another reason why Bayern will have more followers . then they can go and win uefa champions league ...Kane Lack the Capacity to deliver it for them .

Biko, no talk down Kane to prop up Osimhen. Admittedly, he's lost a few paces but is still a damn good player.

I'll be happy if this transfer pulls through. Been hearing some discordant tune about Osimhen from Gala in the past few weeks and it seems the affection is waning.

Tyrone is a decent wingback. He looks slim and fit, and I'm glad to know he's still playing. But he needs to get out of Serie B fast for better visibility

Goke7:
That Europa final announced him finally to the world and it’s been a blast for him since then

Why am happy for him is because it happened as he rose within the national team sending a strong message that playing for Nigeria can make you a global icon!

All fifa and uefa social media pages have been using our guy to farm engagement they don use Ademola hammer within few days omo. The Nigerian brand is huge and heavily underrated

💯%

Nigerian engagement is gold.

semid4lyfe:
In signing Lookman, Athletico didn't just get a player, they got an entire nation.

Nigeria is big on social media and European clubs with Nigerian players always farm Nigerian engagement. Even opponents of clubs with Nigerian players try to benefit from the naija engagement.

This is Real Betis posting Ademola Lookman on their socials with Nigerian hashtags just before their Copa Del Rey match against Athletico, and telling their fans to greet him. And guess what, the post was in Naija pidgin. .....

afrodoc2:
Let me start by saying i have never watched Jenifer or any of Funke's movies. I don't think like her style or even her personality. Afolayan is by far the superior filmmaker IMO.

Having said that, though her reaction might have been excessive, that was a subtle jab at her. He should not have mentioned her name and kept it general.

He was implying that the dancing and skits Funke was doing in order to make her movies profitable were beneath him.

1) So Funke's movies can't be profitable without dancing and skits. 2) You are too big for skits and dancing, but Funke is not.

Ogbeni, nobody asked you about Funke. They just asked you when your next movie was coming out.
To borrow the words of the great philosopher Jeezy, if you get jammed up don't mention my name.

Thank you for this.

Many industry colleagues don't like FA. She's been accused severally of "unethical practices" by fellow cinema movie producers. They allege that the Cinemas allot multiple viewing days and peak times to her movies and sabotage theirs by falsely claiming they're sold out, alloting unfavourable screening time, or limiting showing to once a day. Also, they say staff of cinemas talk down their own movies, then hype, suggest and divert movie goers to watch FA movies.

In all these, there was a commonality. Nobody mentioned FA's name but keen followers of the industry sabi wetin dey sup and who dem dey talk about.......so she kept her cool.

Now this a woman dealing with all these issues of jealousy, envy and hatred from industry colleagues and KA comes out and mentions her name like that....what I'll term a "complimentary insult" and una dey gaslight her, say she overreacted and are calling her unhinged and aggressive. No na.

Not that I believed the 1b, 2b numbers they say her movies gross in the cinemas. How much be the average cinema movie ticket? How many people gats watch a movie to realize those numbers? I don't think Nigerians are flocking to the cinemas in such huge numbers so I believe the numbers are grossly exaggerated.

Still, FA is clearly the record holder in that regard, and KA comments were borne out of envy for her cinema feats and thats why he mentioned her name and talked down on her cinema record . Ok, her movie makes 2b in cinema. Tax and cinema collect 1.5b. She is left with 500m. How does he know she doesn't make more than 10m?. Is he her accountant? Did she collect money from him? Why is he egen calculating the takehome from her project?

See, wisdom no be by age or grey hair. It's the ability to bridle the tongue and be disciplined in utterances.

Kunle Afolayan effed up, and Funke treated his eff up.......the way she deemed fit.

iamoyindamola:
Anikulapo s2 came out on Friday

Be like Kunle fall hand this time cos the Anikulapo Season 2 is being panned like crazy.

All the reactions and reviews of the s2 I've seen on IG and TT are unflattering.

Theflint1:
He does have a point, and I get his beef, especially when you consider these epic Yoruba movies have always been his way of expressing high art, and the entrant of the likes of Funke and Toyin Abraham has practically turned these movies into another Igwe era of Nollywood, then add the dancing for promotion and it gives the vibe of people that just want to cash out.

BlueRayDick:
To be fair, most of the movies they've been celebrating as grossing 1 trillion in cinema earnings...blah...blah have mostly been trash.

I remember the pre-COVID era when I was a frequent Cinema goer , I always regret watching most of those hyped movies with big names like Funke and co. They just use promotions to sell trashy movies with weak story lines and be celebrating numbers everywhere. Nobody talks about how great the movies are anymore.

They brought that same attitude to Netflix when Netflix came dangling streaming funds at movie producers. The moment Netflix saw through their weak story lines and poorly written scripts, Netflix asked them to use their own funds to make the movies and then bring it for screening to decided whether they will accept them or not. Immediately most of them quickly returned to cinemas

How it all started in a film summit (Not exact transcript)

Interviewer: Are you making any big movie to come back to Cinema soon?

Kunle Afoloyan: Its draining. If you can guarantee me that I don't need to dance to sell the film

Interviewer interjects: How can I guarantee you that?

Kunle Afolayan: Laughs. We need to come up with other strategies. How do we sell without exhausting ourselves? I don't know how Funke and the likes are doing it, creating all those skits, everyday changing different costumes, I cannot.

Kunle ,Afoloyan: I will continue to say it, I don't want to make 2 billion in Cinema that I will not take home 10m. If your movie makes 2b in the cinema, when tax is deducted, the cinemas take their cut, you're left with about 500m. If you have institutional investors/stakeholders, you have to pay them too.......bla bla bla

So Kunle kinda insinuated that despite the huge cinema numbers, showing movies in the cinema was not really profitable for filmmakers.

Next thing Funke posted on her IG story. "I'm not the one hindering your progress. If you cant beat them or join them, create your own path. No allow jealousy burn you. The sky is so big for everybody to fly. Eyin were jojo.

She went further to call him on phone, yelling and said to him, "Mr Afolayan, I know you don't like me but don't mention my name in your interviews and cut the call"

I do not rate Funke Akindele. Her Jennifer TV series was wack. Her movies are terrible. I would rather watch paint dry on the wall than sit through her movie. But I think Kunle Afoloyan shouldnt have mentioned her name specifically and her reaction is completely justified.

Kunle Afoloyan probably thought his older status and the Yoruba ethos of respect for elders and "don't insult or disrespect an elder will shield him from Funke but na hin disrespect himself and invite the insult. He needs to be disciplined in his utterances.

Ex Super Eagles Uche Okechukwu aka Gentle Giant is new Sporting Director of Enyimba FC of Aba.

They're just very thorough. Mateta reportedly has a knee issue that may flare up in 3 or 4 years time. I'm just so gutted for the guy. He worked hard and he deserve it but injury struck.

Surely, Crystal Palace knew about this? Why didn't they operate to resolve the issue rather than pass it on to Milan?

Mateta failed AC Milan medicals. Two sessions. Same thing happened to Victor Boniface.

Why are players always failing medicals at Milan?

The song 'one dance' he did almost nothing abd was rewarded for it

Good luck to him in his quest sha.

Plenty Naija artist dey wey no send this grammy, them just want make songs and cash out.

Davido has been dropping hits for years, has been steady cashing out so bar no be hin problem.

He needs to break new grounds and what bigger feat is there than winning a Grammy? Also, he needs that Grammy for his legacy and to cement his afrobeats goat status.

Hit for hit, the other two no big pass am but dem both get Grammy........even though one of dem own na by association.

Question

Seeing the population of kids at Club games in Europe and all, is the NPFL safe for kids to watch full games b2b for a whole season without fear of harm or misconduct?

Safety will vary by location. I would generally consider the South-West - Lagos, Ogun, Ibadan axis to be safer than the other regions.

But travelling to support a NPFL clubside would be too stressful due to our poor public transportation infrastructure.

E go better make person just do the home games of the NPFL club he supports where he resides.

If to say I still dey Lag, I go dey stroll into Onikan stadium once in a while to watch Sporting Lagos and Ikorodu City FC home games.

Fkforyou:
Actually, he should have promoted 'RnB' with Shansea that was the song that had Global appeal and standards but e be like say him team no advise well.

He was assuming that everyone can relate to Naija standards, it was a bad strategy.

I concede the point on song selection, my brother.

For someone who had said severally that his dream was to win a Grammy, I'm surprised he made such a gaffe in song selection.

Tomorrow is pregnant so make hin go again next year.

The Burna songs wey dey win did it sound like theirs?

Burna won his Grammy for Best Global Music Album. It was not an African music specific category then.

CCP don drop. If this a sub to Odogwu?

Reacting via a post on his Instagram page, Cubana Chief Priest claimed that Davido’s repeated Grammy losses were part of efforts by some Western music industry figures to pressure the singer into practices he described as “demonic.”

According to him, Davido’s refusal to bow to such alleged demands has made him a target for constant frustration on the global stage.

“Oyibo dey do everything possible to break a strong man so he can do their demonic sh*t with them, but he will never do it,” Cubana Chief Priest wrote.

He urged the Afrobeats star to remain focused, uphold his principles and continue releasing music for his fans despite the setback.

“Heads up brother, open the bag and drop another hot one for us. E no dey finish, gbedu na water,” he added.

BlueRayDick:
I bought the standing fan on Saturday and their engineer installed same day.

The full package is N239k and it includes a solar panel that was installed on the roof, an inverter-like device that receives & stores the energy from the panel, a standing fan, 4 fluorescent bulbs and 1 sensor light.

From my 2 days user experience, I think it is a good value for money. On full charge, the fan doesn't even consume more than 1 bar of the full charge for an all-night use. It is serving the right purpose I wanted it to serve.

Thank You for the recommendation.
