Investment › Re: Equities Market Appreciates By ₦305 Bn After FTSE Russell’s Reclassification by sharone21(f): 9:21am On Aug 28
Okay.

Several Africans who are not Nigerians ( also other races), also want to invest in Nigeria ( equities, mutual funds, fixed deposits etc) but the main criteria is getting a residence permit first for which the information( steps on this) on this is vague( Ministry of Interiors and Information/ Orientation should work harder on this).... Besides this, it seems expensive to maintain.

We really need a visa system that is more welcoming to investors whether they choose to stay or stay and return at interval months or years.

Health › Re: Why Do I Eat So Much And Still Don't Add Weight by sharone21(f): 9:26pm On Aug 27
Go deworm, detox with lime in warm water on empty stomach ( unless you have ulcer).

Begin taking better eba and soup with meat etc. Don't stop till you notice difference then start taking other meals alongside it.

Besides, note that Nigeria with its issues have a way of making you slim.
Crime › Re: Odogwu Asaba's Wife Defends Him: My Husband Didn't Kill Favour. Only Had Affair by sharone21(f): 1:38pm On Aug 27
kingthreat:
May we never meet a human being like that girl Favour that is ready to take their life to punish someone they despise.
True talk. Similar to popular personality, Francis Van- Late whose daughter, Suzette's ex, a medical doctor ( Dr Ikenna Erinne) took his life all because of paying child support to the mother of his kids( one of which 'disabled') even when he knows in few years time, his annual salary would be massive in USA.

Odogwu's wife who was herself slept with on first date by Odogwu( luckily he married her), may be confused about the meaning of CONSENT before the act.

The greatest loser is still Favor as Odogwu would serve his sentence here on earth which is not indefinite.
Family › Re: Did You Have A Good Relationship With Your Parents While Growing Up? by sharone21(f): 10:54am On Aug 27
My dad was the best father and husband anyone can dream of.

After high school, he taught( Teacher) before going to Sapele for Welding City n Guilds and furthering beyond that becoming an Engineer. So, he was kind of a disciplinarian but a loving/ lover father. He hates lies, your yes must be yes and vice versa.... He was a good runner too. So, try not upset him by doing something wrong, if not the disciplinarian and athlete must catch you to flog you. Mum's mouth was enough to discipline us. When dad disciplines us, he knows how to lavish love on us again. He might just come home and tell us to prepare to go out: Federal Palace hotel, Eko hotel etc. I first heard of karma as a baby from him.

Being 'literate' was from them especially mum who bought us many story books. We learnt to read before going to Kindergarten/ Prep classes/ school. Coupled with toys: once we sight any toy on tv ( Sesame street etc), they must buy for us ooo...lol

Dad was father and mother together as his professional, self employed life allowed it unlike mum.

I was given more names unlike my siblings in my native ika language, possibly dad was speaking to himself( names with meanings like: Friends are not much.....A child is wealth.....Your own is the sweetest....

Dad brags with us before his friends especially days they come which were our prize giving days in school:5 girls at first b4 a boy strolled in later.

Same thing to just cross from Ikom to Ekok border of not more than 10mins drive is N30,000 after much bargain by our Naija drivers.

Transportation cost needs to be looked into in Nigeria. I don't know if we have a Transportation Minister.

Nairaland General › Re: How Is Electricity In Your Area? by sharone21(f): 1:42pm On Aug 24
Nigeria needs to do better concerning electricity.

Cameroon for instance is 1KW= 100francs, meaning if I use 30KW in a month ie 3000francs to pay to ENEO through your landlord.

However, it's cheaper sef even without having a meter( meter cost is 3000-8000 Francs depending on the area, the 3000-4000francs meters are very popular), where you pay alongside what your cotenants pay.

Some other places can even be more affordable such that in a month you just pay 300-500francs even without a meter( with cotenants). Cameroonians can tell you they have power failures, LOL, but not like Nigeria's.

'Pay as you use meters' is what we need after the respective electricity boards have decided what their tarrifs will be like, you just personally regulate what you use.
Crime › Re: POS Scammer Caught - Explains How He Operates (Photos/Video) by sharone21(f): 1:16pm On Aug 24
My mum will say that it's better one begs ( beg for things)than to steal.

When you beg, those who can help you will assist you, seeing your humility. However, when you steal ( which involves deceit)you are a proud human who thinks he is very wise forgetting that the brain you think you have, all others have it just that you are activating the bad side of your brain.

I remember the recent BBC news program of a white guy whose mum claimed she now has a boyfriend that loves her so much. On investigation, including traveling to Nigeria he was able to hook up with the guy behind it and all others in the fraud game. The Nigerian fraudster was a teenager who even celebrates when he could cash $5 from his victims. The white guy had to 'befriend' them to understand them better including the way they operate.

Family › Re: First Sons' Burden: How Have You Been Feeling by sharone21(f): 3:40pm On Aug 22
The 1st born thing sef is relative.

Some are first son/ daughter but 2nd child... Speaking up for 2nd Borns too.

Many 2nd Borns have taken positions like 1st Borns eg due to death of first born, absence / busy types. Family now rely on 2nd Borns not only for finances but in decision making( family), ensuring that they are involved.

First Borns and even 2nd Borns always need prayers. If there are 6 children, you won't entirely call the 2nd, middle children even if they still get treated as such too.

Some families favored the first and youngest majorly while the middle ones ( including the 2nd they take too as first) receive less care.

The youngest serve the most in some family and pampered the most too. They could face some neglect too if parents were retired or retrenched on time.

Travel › Re: I Visited The Wealthiest Neighborhoods In Benin Republic (video) by sharone21(f): 1:39pm On Aug 21
Benin Republic is one of the most underrated West African countries.

My years in Cotonou: 2004, 2015, 2018/19.... If you need security and a decent place to live without spending so much for generator then, Cotonou is it with different cadres of neighborhoods based on size of your pocket.

Where we take foreigners to go live in VI, Ilupeju, Lekki, Ikeja in Nigeria and spend so much on service charge on rents, it's cheaper to get same security and amenities in Cotonou even if it's 60,000-80,000frs in Godomey or Kohounou( close to the stadium)..... You can get cheaper ones at Ouidah( President's home town).

I still see Benin Republic generally neater than Cameroon but Cameroon seems more affordable in terms of electricity, food stuffs( easily get those stuffs mallams bring from the North everywhere in Cameroon eg peas, carrots, cabbage etc), Cameroon has yellow garri unlike white garri in Benin Republic ( I don't fancy this). Cameroon is more bilingual though our people are making Cotonou almost same.

Democracy has long been practiced in Benin Republic....Very secure for all races even in the low ends neighborhoods unlike Nigeria
Business › Re: Sowore, Ibukun Awosika React To Lady Calling Tony Elumelu By Name (Video) by sharone21(f):
It's not our culture to call someone older than us by name. This is same reason why when a black American of 25 years called her benefactor ( age: early 70s) who helped her with tuition fee etc of about $45000 and she still refer to her by her FIRST NAME till date, I find it too disrespectful to the elderly lady( who I know).

At least if she can't call her Madam, or Ms, or mum( which I address her), for the mere fact she is her benefactor when no other person cared about her, she is supposed to call her by that name eg Madam, mum etc.

Me, I will honor her till death if I got this same opportunity.

Politics › Re: Obi Won Delta Without Us, How Much More Now We Are With Him?. Omo Agege(video) by sharone21(f): 10:21pm On Aug 19
ElevationD:
How are you sure that Okowa will win his LGA. In 2023 he managed victory even as he was on the ballot. His popularity dwindled. His fake 2026 senatorial primary votes should not confuse you. Anyway, as an Ika man, he lost Ika south by a wide margin to Obi in 2023. Sheriff’s 2023 victory was an overnight miracle performed by Okowa, who did not want to suffer a double loss. If the election held the same day, Sheriff would not be the governor today.

So if you are happy that Okowa will deliver his LGA, know now that you are thinking of not more than 15 - 20k votes. Maybe that’s so you will be pleased with in Delta state for BAT in 2027.

By the way, have you confirmed that Tompolo worked for BAT in 2023?

How can BAT win 5 LGAs in Delta state in 2027? Should we expect 50 - 100k per vote to achieve that?

Health › Re: Doctor!!! In The House, Please Kindly Help. It's Urgent. by sharone21(f):
duduade:
How many times has she used contraceptives in the past two months
You and the person that mentioned postinor are correct.

Not every woman's body tolerates contraceptive ( pills) as it disturbs menstrual flow and confuses it including confusing ovulation periods.

For someone who isn't married I see no reason why they should be on pills, rather they can go for menstrogen(' use as you go) as she takes it immediately before and after the act. Even married people use it if pills causes problems in her body : obesity or unnecessary added weight, not good for those with some health conditions, heavy or scanty flow, apart from the spotting at odd days and distorting her menstrual flow such that she herself will not calculate right again.

Note: It doesn't have to be overdose of pills for this to happen.

Hoping government/ CBN will allow Nigerians to recover their stolen money using Court Affidavits( cheaper) instead of paying Lawyer N40,000 inorder to be able to recover N120000
