FamilyRe: Wife Blocking Husband & In-laws From Viewing Her Status by shumuel(m): 8:10pm On Feb 19
Olu1000:
If a wife blocks her husband & his family members from viewing her status , is it enough to initiate a a separation or divorce? Please kindly advice
Get a new SIM card and open a WhatsApp account with it either a second WhatsApp or Business WhatsApp, whenever you have access to her phone quickly save the new number on her phone with Z starting the name you save it with, then make sure her number is saved on a new phone or open the new WhatsApp/ business to see her status and view what she is hiding
Jokes EtcRe: The Surest Way To Kidnap A Nigerian - Namibian (Pictured) by shumuel(m): 11:10pm On Feb 15

You have 0 excuse.

There are over 20 registered political parties in Nigeria.

In the 2023 election, there were over 90 million registered voters, but only 20+ million people voted.

The point still remains the same, so even if 100 political parties front non credible candidates, your point is and I quote, that I should just pick one and Vote, isn't that it ?

So, now Nigerian to Nigerian have there ever been any credible candidates?

Coz my own point is; if we all stand as one, to refuse to vote until the political parties provide credible and vetted candidates we would not vote, these politicians would take us seriously and would think twice before doing sh!t

If the 70+ million non-voters like you had voted for the alternatives other than the 3 major candidates, those candidates would've won the election, and you would’ve made a big statement to the major political parties.

But you sit down inside your house on election day and be talking about how the country will never move forward.

givedemwotowoto:
Some Nigerians are their own problems:

- Those who vote nonsense
- Those who say they won't vote because their votes won't count (this one is worse than voting nonsense).
Your bolded is the reason why this country will never move forward, so if 3 political parties provide me with 3 thieves, I should/Must pick anyone of them just because I want to Vote undecided

By the time we realize that if we refuse to accept just anyhow candidates and also refuse to Vote, these thieving Political Parties would be forced to provide and field reputable candidates that will move this country forward

ManU problem started when Morino Bought Pogba for that ridiculous amount, this made all other players lost their Zeal and desire to achieve anything for the club

They are yet to know this, but ManU is the first Retirement (Saudi Arabian) Club, all the players including the Coaches only come to the club to get retirement benefits 😉😉😉 before retirement, that is why they perform better at other clubs, U ited unfortunately exposed itself with that Pogba singing

I don't know how some people enjoy this noise, even the one of Tekno too on the other thread blad nothing exciting undecided

Well I like P Square, and I think Peter should just create a niche for himself by just Dancing to beats on people's songs rather than singing, he can even be creating content based on that, coz the guy has good fashion Sense, dance skills and always remind me of Usher, I was excited seeing him in this music video but the moment he opened his mouth ... end, it seems his son is the one dancing on his right, that's good if so, he should just stick to dancing and leave the music to Paul(RudeBoy)

In all this is a nonsense song, even the Attention he forced into the Video undecided

Yeah, something like that but I think Thuraya is a Satellite phone, don't know if that is the same frequency those cellular phones operated on in those days, but they existed, replica models were Toys in the early 90, toys that sings "Hello, can i help you"

Then it was something else and not mobile phones. Because the fact of the matter is that it was May 6,2001 that mobile telephony came into Nigeria
There was, it was called Cellular or something, black heavy mobile phones that looks like TV/DSTV Remotes, but it is not GSM, the numbers started with 090

This case is simple, we are all Africans after all, it's just a case of 2 wrong gone bad, but I expected more from a whole Judge

Anyways, this is probably 70% what happened, Madam Judge Mugambe brought a fellow Ugandian over to the UK all expenses paid with the hope that she would stay with her and help babysit her kids while she got her PhD, but auntie wanted to travel to the UK for free, move out, work and send pictures to her family at home to show and boast that she had arrived and now in the UK, but the Judge knows that if she had her freedom she would run away and not pay her dues, typical of Africans,, now, the Judge's mistake was trying to force it on her because she thinks UK is like Africa were the Rich and Powerful do as they pleased

A simple contract would have saved the Judge all these stress but despite being a learned personale, the African mentality put her in this mess, what an insult to the African judiciary undecided

@drloguortho1
This is a Lie, the legs and feet are not the same

The kid with a Club foot is light skinned, with a lighter shade more than the kid's leg they claim they corrected, also there is a big black birth mark spot on the left foot of the corrected kid's, with no sign of surgery, the big toes on both legs are also a bit far apart from the rest of the toes on the feet of the club foot kid

When I was a kid, I used to find it a lot, but now I haven't seen it for maybe more than 20 years. Is it extinct in all of Nigeria or just in my city?
The answer is quit simple, we have cut down all the Trees in the Cities to build shops, that's why

Back in the days every house or compound had at least 1 trees, mostly Mango or Orange, also some berry plants and flowers, but nothing of sort anymore
RomanceRe: Dont Marry Her Or Else You Will Keep Working Without Any Achievement by shumuel(m): 12:40am On Apr 04, 2025
dominique:
She's right, the money is enough to start a business without renting a shop. I don't know about other states but in Lagos, neighbourhood shops now go between 8-10k per month. Shops in busy areas, bus-stops and market places go for much higher and most landlords ask for 2 years rent upfront. The spending won't be on rent alone, she'll need to furnish the shop with chair, table, counters, shelves etc and make it look attractive to customers. She's only telling you the reality of things but you're here poverty shaming her. You strike me as the toxic abusive husband who will treat your wife like you're doing her a favour by marrying her. How I wish she can open her eyes and see how better she'll be far away from you.
Really, this is coming from you someone I considered to be very smart?

So, one can only start a business with renting a shop ?, despite the technological advancement we now have, with news of some businesses now going full Virtual or online, you mean to tell me that all those Universities ladies, selling Hair wigs, making hair for fellow students, selling shoes & bags, Foodstuffs, Glasses & Wristwatches all have shops, even Make-up artists don't necessarily need a shop today and they are all thriving

All you need is a well-setup online page, Whatsapp group, Instagram page, Facebook community or page, and you are good to go, they even reach more customers base than local shops these days kiss undecided sad

I won't say it's a lie, because that will mean I am Omniscient which I am not.
I will only say.

IT IS DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE.
It is not just a lie but a blatant lie, that's if he really said that and not that his words were misinterpreted

It is easy to know a lie this huge even though we were not present or have evidence against it but please ask yourself these questions

1. How much would Michael Jackson be offered in 1995
2. How much would a Football star be offered to play for top Europe clubs in 1995
3. How many Cassette would be sold to make profit, if a record deal of £24 million is offered to a Gospel singer in 1995
4. How much sales do Gospel singers make in 1995
5. How much sales did he himself made in that year to have attracted such a huge amount
6. How much of illuminati was in existence in 1995 to have wanted the Name Jesus Christ to be omitted or reduced in a Gospel song


If he had said Today in 2025, Yes it is very believable with no doubt, even though Gospel music is not that big
Nairaland GeneralHow To Read Your Prepaid Meter In Nigeria by shumuel(op): 2:25am On Jan 27, 2024
How To Read Your Prepaid Meter In Nigeria

First, you have to make sure there is unit in the meter, or you load the prepaid meter with units

Then, you write down the available units in the meter to the last decimal

After which, you are to put on all your appliances

Set an alarm for 1 hour, when it is time take the reading again

Minus the second reading from the first reading and that would be your meter unit consumption for every hour electricity is available, that is your Kw/H

Multiply the reading by the hours of electricity supply mostly available in your area, that would likely be the numbers of electricity units you use daily

That is how you can read your prepaid meter in Nigeria

Note: it is best to estimate the reading, so you have an accurate time of reloading your meter as there are factors that can either reduce or increase the number of units you use a day
Factors like;
1. Not switching on all the bulbs during the day or not generally using all your appliances at a go.
2. Charging your power-banks or other electrical appliances you use as backup.
3. Charging the phones of your neighbors, visitors, customers, or even strangers passing by.
Many Nigerians do carry their chargers about and would charge their phones at any available powered extensions.

An Example of the above explanation E.g
Let say you load your prepaid meter with 100 units, and you put on all your appliances for 1 hour, then you took the reading and found 99 units left after 1 hour of usage, this means it would take you 1 unit to power all your appliances for 1 hour, now you can always multiply this by the hours of electricity available in your area, let’s say 12hours, which means your daily electricity unit usage would over 12 units
