Travel / Re: Flight Delays: Mary Njoku Cries Out To Keyamo by shullygirl: 1:06pm On May 04
In as much as I agree with this suggestion for airlines to refund passengers on demand when flights are delayed or cancelled. My only fear is that these airlines may choose to continue with flight when it isn't safe just to avoid refunds.

Culture / Re: Yoruba Names Whose Meanings Are Now Lost by shullygirl: 11:13pm On Dec 22, 2022
[quote author=duro4chang post=118664706]
There are many Yorùbá names whose meanings are now lost due to the fact that the words forming their roots are no longer in use.
For instance, ask the young Master Ọlọ́pàádé the meaning of his name and he will probably tell you that his name means “the policeman has come“. Ask Mr. Ọlọ́paádé, his father, and he would probably tell you it means “the owner of the staff has come“. The two of them would be wrong as Ọlọ́pàádé actually means “the Ọpa (re|re) devotee has come“. The same goes for all other Ọpa names like Opadotun. Those names show that the ancestors of the bearers of the names were worshippers or devotees of the Ọpa Cult otherwise called Awo Ọpa, one of the religious cults or secret societies proscribed by the British in colonial days.

Thanks for sharing. Please what is the meaning of Awesu

We finally caught her through the help of some guys and estate security on her way to her boyfriend's house after 4 days.

Lessons have been learnt. No more Live-in maid.
I would rather get a professional househelp thay can assist me in the evening during the week and on Saturdays when necessary.

I really appreciate all your useful contributions.

Sorry to say ma, the problem started when you dont let her realise she is working with you for money.

Send her back to her people before she run away with that random person.

This has happened

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Lo and behold I came back from work today and this girl told me she wants to go and buy recharge card.

When she didn't return after an 1 hr, I knew something had happened.

I checked her room and realised that she had packed all her luggages from my house while I was at work.

To cut the long story short, her brother informed me that she told him she is with her friend doing multilevel marketing which is the kind of job she had been telling me all along. So she has finally gone to live with the person.

I reported the case to police tonight and also informed her family and guarantors.

Nature is just doing what ought to be done which is getting attracted to the opposite gender, the job might be true and it could also be a means to other hidden agenda.


Sit her down and have a well detailed discussion with her letting her know she came to work with you and let her know her job with you is full time with all the benefits that comes with it, if she chooses the other job every benefit will have to stop which includes living with you. You will also have to take her back to her sister to let them know contract has been terminated, then she can go back on her own to Portharcourt to start the job. Doing this will help you to be protected from whatever complications that might arise either against your household or on her personally which you could be liable for if she still stays with you.

Exception is that, she tells you the truth if she wants to date the guy and you can advice her while also letting her people know of her new found love as this cannot be stopped, unless you want to complicate things for yourself, let her be on that and also watch out for your home.

Thanks alot. Like I said she is secretive, I have discussed this with her and she told me she wants to go to school.

This is the second time she is discussing with me and she denies having any boyfriend even though I see so many love messages in her phone.

Well I will discuss this with her Sister to further confirm from her if she wants to go to school or work.

Ask her to choose between her current job (housemaid) and the proposed new job.
If she chooses the new job, return her to her people. That is an affront, doing business on top of business.

Thank you.

You've grown fond of her and you're afraid she'll pay less attention to you and your home if she takes the job. Talk to her about it and try convincing her to prepare more for school. You're going to have to let her go if she insists on taking this job.

Exactly. She told me she is no longer interested but what if she does while am away pretending she has gone for tutorials.

Family / Advise Needed Regarding A Live-in Househelp by shullygirl: 2:45am On Jun 07, 2022
Good Morning

This is my first experience with a live-in househelp so I need good advise from experienced people.

So last year January I hired a part-time house help to assist me with chores only in the evening and Saturdays. As at that time she was in SS3, squatting with a tailor whom she was learning from and needed to work to take care of her school bills and feeding. She is an orphan but she has an Elder sister whom the tailor and her guarantors dislikes because she is a religious fanatics who see everything from spiritual angle and was always taking her for deliverance service for days without informing the Tailor and sometimes makes the girl miss school classes because of the church program. I was also told that her sister collects all the money from the girl.

Mid-last year, I got another job in Portharcourt which required me to relocate from Lagos with my kids and without my husband . Since I would need support, I decided to go with her instead of getting another maid. I discussed with her Sister and guarantors that I would further her education (part-time study) if she is allowed to go with me to PH because I really liked her character, they agreed.

She sat for WAEC but failed a subject required to be admitted for a choice course at Uniport. I asked her if she would go for another course instead and she told me she would rather stay for another year and resit for another exam, this time GCE to get her complete papers. So I registered her for tutorials which she attends whenever I go work.

Then one day in February, I got back from work and she told me she met a random person on the road who introduced her to a job. I discouraged her and asked her if she needed money or what was her problem as I expected her to focus on schooling.

We travelled to Lagos for Easter and when we returned she approached me again about the job. This got me really scared. I asked her again if it was because of money and she told me no.
I am really worried about my home and have lost trust in her.

How can she meet a random person on the road who will be disturbing her about the job(according to her) and you really want to go. She wants to have another boss under my roof or is it that the work I give her is not enough.

Please I need advise to what to do as I plan to collect my house keys from her and never allow her to be alone in the house and alone with my kids.

Am I just being unnecessary worried of nothing?

Please share your advise from your experience.

Aside this, she is a good girl but very secretive. She can enter into a cave to pick any call just so that I will never hear any of her phone conversation and she calls alot.

Please note that I do not maltreat her. She has a room to herself with A.C. I take her along on family outings and I sew same materials for her so thay she doesn't look odd. I buy her clothes and shoes occasionally as well and never owe her salary.

Celebrities / Re: Black Soot: Hilda Dokubo Cries Out About The Pollution In Port Harcourt (Photo) by shullygirl: 5:26pm On Jan 04, 2022
Elvictor:
This is stale, I have lived in Rivers State, and still in Rivers hitherto, this black soot of a thing has been exaggerated and is now a laughable matter.

The owner of that dirty feet, after walking around barefooted what his legs to look like what? Looked at the place his legs is lifted above.

You people have been envious, that Rivers State have been peaceful for a while now, not cultism supremacy battle, and everyone is living fine, the insecurity card of chasing potential investors from Rivers State have been destroyed.

Afonja's miscreants and Lagos A.K.A Tinubu Owambe riff-raffs have started soot card, just to derail Rivers State from being an investors destination.

That the person on that photograph to make his or her environment healthy, and stop displaying his or her feet legs on internet, she or he is now a nuisance.

Nonsense!

You are a very wicked person to make such comment.

I am very sure you don't live in Port Harcourt.

Is not about the guy walking about barefooted but how polluted the air is for the floor to be that black.
Religion / Selfish Prayers by shullygirl: 6:22pm On Jun 13, 2021
1. God bless you for me ooo

So you mean the blessings of God to the one you are praying for should benefit only you, not even the receiver of the blessing or another person associated with him/her.

IMO, simply say God bless you abundantly such that everyone gets to benefit from that blessing.

Please share your thoughts on this kind of prayer and any other kind of selfish prayer so that we can learn to think about others even in prayers.

sisisioge:


It is quite tough but she must decide

1. Get that nanny
2. Ask workplace if they have provision for night creche
3. Look around for a creche will to take baby overnight
4. Speak with supervisor and children wing of the hospital if baby could be allowed in at night. Afterall, he probably will sleep all through.
5. Reject the night offer for day so baby can be at day crotch while mommy works
6. Kukuma leave the job a d take care if baby until she finds a day job.

Motherhood is not easy, well done maami.

Thanks alot

Hello Matured ones in the house,
What would you advise a single mother with a toddler who just got a nursing job to do..
Her mum is late, no family members and she will be needing someone to stay with her son when she is off to work on night duty..
She has to relocate because of the job, so no friends to help her when is away.

Thanks in advance for your matured responses

Don't fall for peer pressure because this institution called Marriage can either make you, mar you, produce good or useless fruits to this world.

I believe all these naysayers belong to a body or business who sees MBA has a big competitor/threat to their existing or upcoming business.

They think their plan to destroy another person's business will create room for their success.

Just know that Karma is watching on 5D

I also experienced same yesterday.

I wanted to watch LTV News at 8pm. My phone time at that time was 7:55pm, so I quickly went into the room for like 5mins in my mind only for me to check my phone and I saw 8:10am. I was like mehn I never knew time had gone like this oo and quickly dashed to the sitting room. Lo and behold, the clock in the sitting room says 7.58pm and the news at 8 hadn't started. I asked my husband what his phone time says and his was also 7:58am. I just ignored and blamed it on my phone.
