Beautiful memories.

My axis then was Tin Can and later Mile2.....Koso game on the ground, playing whot cards....

You finish chewing gums then use wrap as tattoo on the skin. Biscuits then were more quality then including the sweet, salty crackers. Sardines were affordable, just to ask that I needed to buy it from parents so I taste it( the one at neighbor's shop) besides the overloaded imported and local food at home.

Though even at that time there were still poor people whose parents ( both)couldn't afford things or private schools

nex:
N100,000 per month on Band A is N1.2m per year. In 2 years, you would have spend N2.4m on electricity bills with nothing to show for it.

There are 3kVA Solar Portable Power Stations with 2kWh Lithium Battery selling for N2m and you can buy 2 units of 400W Solar Panels for N200k. This will power your apartment 24 hours for 10 years without you paying an extra dime!

I'm currently using one, so I'm not just reproducing what I saw online. With just the equivalent of your 2 years Band A electricity bills, you will acquire your own clean, noiseless, and constant electricity source for more than a decade to come.

How do you charge them? Generators?

How many people from that State studied Health programs at 15 years and graduated at 18 years to start working in the State? Or they think education is like their early marriage system?

Why is it also 18-40yrs? Reason why several health professionals Japa since the country's system can't accommodate them

Commendable however, some wicked tenants with support of some Lawyers who will be giving them confidence may take advantage of good, easygoing landlords, adding manipulative tendencies to it.

Same Ivana enmeshed in Tumise's saga or another one?

My dad was the best anyone can dream off.

One of the first German trained Metallurgical Engineers Nigeria ever had through the sheer help of a German who saw him in Sapele as he got his City n Guild certificate in Welding .

Returned after several years there, loved his siblings but as 2nd child, the first child/son hated him as he took all the shine. The other siblings were not too different. He with help of mum sent his
now late younger one to Australia then but that one after 2yrs of 4 yrs program returned saying he had graduated not knowing he was part of the grand scheme to elim.ate him.

He helped all, his community, brought water, light, good road etc. Put outsiders in his budget as he planned for his family carrying their heavy burdens including medical care, home issues ( buying gas for them, tuition fees etc).

Will keep friends who he intuitively knows are intimate( including evil planning) with his siblings even sharing same plate with them.... Careless for me. He had a licensed gun due to this intuitive fear, but still not enough.

I saw similar thing with a Lawyer who pretended like she was helping us dispose his land who was secretly liaising with his family( now, nephews etc) with the plan for us to get across the land documents to her since 'she has seen a big buyer'( this is after several yrs of not being lucky selling the land). Unfortunately for her, we have sadly learnt our lessons of not having a father for many yrs due to the envy of people ( especially his family). B4 she asked for the documents, I had dreamt someone wanted to steal money from us---- she let down her guards too( making her the prime suspect after the dream) by ordering me to 'better bring that documents to the village'.... Lol

Same Rivers State and all the South that Obedients have messed up with fighting them so they lose their authentic historical origins and claim theirs? Ikwerre/Etche/Ekpeye etc, Opobo, Bonny, Ijaw.... No one will like to lose their identities under an Obi's government.

SS unfortunately is for APC, truth is bitter.

Beautiful write up.

Ravens are birds too, selfish in nature to the extent they don't fend for their babies however, despite their notorious nature, God still used it to feed his Prophet who was hungry then.

Moral of the story: God can use anyone to help you

One Israeli cyber security guy once told me that when he creates a website and wants to be sure it's hack-proof to a large extent, he uses Nigerians to test it.

Kudos to Zenith bank's ICT team and many of our banking organizations.

I used to hear news like this among Philippines, Thailand, indonesis, Malaysia etc in the 80s/90s . I never dreamt of Nigeria's name becoming degrading

Some Nigerians have been into it for long. PMB then even brought death penalty especially since there wasn't much technology to fishing them out apart from routine search eg male officials searching male suspects and female officials searching female suspects.

The poor do repeat what their poor parents did.

We see the gifts given to Jesus by the 3 wise men but forget the lineage he was born into ( David- Solomon -Joseph& David- Nathan - Mary). The sacrifices His foreparents did eg laying the foundation Israel has today, sowing generously to God till God was provoked to coming down to ask Solomon what he wanted. There is a spiritual and physical side to wealth.

Foresight and a knack for doing business right/ knowing good deals when you see them are good qualities the rich have and pass to their kids.

Now, see the likes of Elon( Physicist), Jeff Bezos, Zuckerberg, T pushing their children to learning Mandarin even when it does not seem like the popular choice because they know what could happen in the business world between both countries in the future, they groom their young ones early enough in the business space/ world.

You don't know how blessed you are when you have that ability/ foresight to do things when others are still 'asleep' about it and when it gets too popular with the crowd into it, you have made whatever you could make and move on to the next project.

It's been long Nigerians have been going to Germany particularly in the 1960s.

Hoping it will be safe when implanting it and even in the long run without hazardous side effects.

Hoping it would be affordable even if not cheap as such.

Well said.....Career goals should guide us in our destinations whether or not it eventually leads to citizenship ( a 2nd passport) or just permanent residency or continued yearly residency renewals. Family and life balance too are important considerations to making a balanced final choice.

Hoping it's well implemented.

I don't understand people who always remember the poor when others give to certain people....

Why should a God sent person to me who wants to give me as led by God( because no one easily gives out what he/she has without conviction) will now be attacked that he didn't give to the poor? The poor will always be in our midst- they need to do something about their situation even if it means sowing in their poverty state but you see some of them saying they have nothing to give.

You don't know what some parents, grandparents, great grandparents have sacrificed personally or done for people or prayed concerning their lineage but all you see is their offsprings/ seeds being blessed by others and you attack their givers.

When you start to sow right, to God and man in kind and cash, your children and generation reaps it.... Reason why it is not even necessary to advise thieves/ scammers/fraudsters/manipulators etc to do the right thing because whatever anyone sows, he reaps( himself or lineage reaps it).

Its watery like gbegiri soup.

E pain am..... Truth is bitter.

Same sit-at-home they wanted to import into peaceful Delta State under the guise of same names and language with Ndi ANIOMA but this was promptly truncated by the aboriginals with a lefelendum they have always been shouting about: 3 votes vs hundreds.

Na like so one deceive Wilson Oruma, that one come invest in him thinking say na business him dey invest in being a Pastor.

Individual character matters. Better to give the little you can afford if you don't have the heart to stand human betrayal.

Sometimes when you have a FATHER, that is both father and mother you don't know what God did for you.

That said, people need to balance things and not be overly religious over family.

Exousiang01:
You can so easily tell when a poor man speaks....

Poverty is another form of blindness.

Poverty will make you think wealth is impossible.
It will make you think any wealthy person out there is doing something bad to get wealth.

In all you do please try to make money so you don't go about posting comment like this young man.....

You can't even imagine that a young man can be this rich.
You just assume that BetPawa is is his only source of wealth.

And because have no investments, stocks and Co, you don't even understand the chat up in that picture....

You even sure say you Sabi wetin be portfolio?

Perfectly said ..... No need adding anything else.

He can only defeat him at this his old age not when he ( Brock) was younger and a bone breaker.

Fraudsters and thieves don't know the embarrassing and life threatening situations they put their victims.

Anyway, karma is real.

I remember one of my bosses then who said he didn't do pry and secondary and I asked how he did things? He told me he just was doing home schooling and when it got to writing GCE, he wrote it as an external student. He should be in his 60s and worked well as government official. Maybe it's same with oga at the top, but he didn't really defend how he got into Chicago university ( probably with direct entry with his late 'sister' as a 'helper')..... Definitely he could be a smart student in class and actually graduated with his Chicago degree.

As for oga Adamawa, possibly he got a professional certificate first with years of experience, which qualified for MSc program/ degree.

They have only set a flexible standard for others after them to follow.

Even if the house isn't up to that amount at least Pellar got a house from him.

I wonder the prayers their parents prayed before conceiving this two as grace is all i see around them. Same content a young lady wanted to learn that cost her, her life.

Pellar is timely, taking advantage of the fame he has now which he understands may not last forever to marry right and to get people to give willingly to him. He married someone more mature and also in the business of content creation to balance him well. Wise, old soul( not by age).

They are both getting many things right at their young ages.... Good networks& connections, how to make money skills and now everything that will make a home sweet without complaints. May they have the wisdom to manage well all God has given them.

When you are envious because of these ones being blessed on time and thus misyarning, you are simply telling God that your own is too hard for Him to do.

I tap into God's grace upon their lives. Amen

And if it's truly it, this fruit is very good for the eyes.

Some people were known Sharia advocates including Sanusi but it didn't take away the fact that they performed well generally. No one is perfect.

I support that he is given another portfolio eg Power sector to head.

Happy birthday to Nigeria's number one game changer in football whenever he is brought in.

My parents wedded in Christ Anglican Church, while Reverend Sope Johnson was the one who baptised us.

Funny enough, Delta and many of the South are APC states until proven otherwise.

Where the big political person's eg Okowa etc go to, the people follow

I suspect the Op is from that region always trying to annex ANIOMA people to themselves and thinking because their new found brother, Ned is in NDC Delta State is definitely in NDC.....LOL
