We had not seen each other for about 30 years. The Lord has been kind to me. When I saw him again - this time at a hotel lobby - he was looking simple. He wore simple Ankara attire. I felt touched. He walked up to me and was glad to see me again. But deep within me I was not impressed with his status compared to mine and poor me, I couldn't hide it. We exchanged contact details and I could see the joy in him as he collected mine.

I told him I will drop him home in my brand new Range Rover and I pointed it to him. He declined and said he had already called for his car. It looked old, a 2001 Honda Accord.


I invited him the next day for lunch at my house. A part of me wanted to impress him - To show off my success and affluence to him, while another was to discuss opportunities and possibly help him.

He drove to Parkview where I lived. He looked impressed with my home. I had taken a heavy mortgage. In fact I was heavily in debt. We had lunch. He told me he was into small business and particularly real estate. I brought up more business discussions, but he didn't sound too interested. I asked him how I could help him. He said he was fine. I even told him if he was interested, I could help him secure some loans... He looked at me and smiled.

He told me he would invite me over soon to his place. His old car came for him. I was grateful to God for what I had. “Fingers are not all equal”, I thought to myself...I was lucky. I worked in a good place.

Two weeks later, we went to see him in Ikeja. My wife and I. She was reluctant to go because she was not impressed with the man's status as to warrant our visiting him in his house. I was able to convince her that we were close friends in college. We saw the Estate. *Wuraola Estate.* We asked for directions to his home. Those leading us spoke his name with deference.

It was a simple but lovely home. A 4 bedroom bungalow. I saw 4 cars parked in front. We entered his home. It was simply elegant with a touch of class inside. He welcomed us warmly.

Lunch was well served. His wife called him Baba Wuraola

During lunch, he asked about my MD. He said they were friends. I saw a company gift on one of his tables nearby. That company owned about 38% shares where I worked. I enquired from him about it. He smiled. He told me he owned the company. He also owned the estate.

I did not know when I called him sir... I was in awe of him too.

I had learnt a lesson in humility - A big one. Appearances are deceptive. He noticed my discomfort.

Driving back home, I was very quiet. My wife was humbled and extremely calm. I could perceive the thoughts in her mind. I looked at myself. Living on loans, heavy loans and showing off while someone who pays my salary is quite modest and living a simple life!
Indeed Deeper Rivers Flow In Majestic Silence!

My question is; who has been fucking queen Elizabeth all this year's?

iammo:




Mumu people... they thought Police and Army were given gun to chase flies.. you attacked a military blockade and checkpoint pelting them with dangerous object as if they know where zakzaki is...

Rules of engagement of military in every country of the world is to attack all dangerous forces directed at them

Dear Foolish black youth attempting to fight an officer with a weapon, please think of your parents investment on you and use other legal non violent means... even in America cops would gun your miserable ass down, and you can cry black lifes matter on twitter all day long.. same civil disobidience and lawlessness is why they get killed in asia and south africa

What PDP clowns want from Government

*Buhari should let Nnamdi kanu threaten others with violence and not arrest
*Biafra should create BSS army and openly order guns from turkey and be left alone
*Elzakzaki and Shiite should block federal secetariat abuja, vandalise peoples cars, burn government property and nothing should be done

Two things are behind you story, is either the wife and her family has used juju to turn his face against his relation or he belongs to a cult were he sworn an aoat not to help his siblings and relation. The solution is compulory family liberation by a true man of God. May God liberate your home.

Babaalata:
Dont feel Entitled to his money. He has an immediate family to feed as his top priority. The fact that he works in a multinational doesn't make him a multi millionaire.
I made a decision never to depend on any family or family friends. I trusted them for my IT placement then, but was highly disappointed.

Sensible Traditional Theologies!

Hmmmmmmmmmm, how i wish it works that way!

Well from the time of Abel till today religionists who are fanatical have spilled innocent blood of sincere and honest hearted believers! Luke 11:51

God is ready to avenge their blood and to ask from the hands of their executors! Genesis 4:10

That is why the interest in religion is fast disappearing amongst youths who are the active ones and many of them are becoming lawless! Matthew 24:12

This is the end time, and soon none religionists will soon dominate the world political scene and they will make rules to stop religion completely. That is what you're reading at Revelations 13:16-18

At that dreadful times things will become extremely difficult for those who wants to keep their faith going, only those who endured to the end will see God's Kingdom! Matthew 24:13

All hypocritical religious title chiefs will surrender and their followers will become totally confused, meanwhile there will remain the one and only true Christians that most people failed to recognize all these while! Jehovah's Witnesses will continue to preach and teach in all their neighborhood for people to know that there still remains one religious group that has not denounce their faith! Matthew 24:14

Then the hypocritical religious title chiefs and their former fanatical followers will become jealous of the JWs just as Cain did to Abel in the beginning, but God Almighty will intervene in behalf of his true worshippers! Psalms 105:15

Satan and all his demons who have been deceiving unbelievers will be arrested {Revelations 20:1-3} and all those who failed to recognize Jesus' brothers will be destroyed! Matthew 25:46

So Religion will soon be banned according to God's word {Revelations 17:15-18} but true Christians will continue to preach and teach since their own faith is not tied to buildings called Church. Satan, his demons and his human agents try to attack them. That's when God will order Jesus "Start ruling" {Psalms 110:2} and Jesus will kill all those who failed to recognize his true followers! Luke 19:27

I have 4 clients from this thread, one has received his goods & remaining 3 yet to receive their goods

Here's remaining 3 clients & reasons;

KUSIMO: his goods is still in China due to China holiday of which he's aware. We ordered his goods from different seller, some were refunded which he replaced with other links & he got notified with 48hours if orders will be refunded because any order not shipped after 24hrs of placement, I always query seller to know what the problem is. We both communicate very well on phone & agreed to ship goods to Nigeria after Chinese holiday. I don't think this moniker was him

MADUABUCHI: He ordered from one seller. He paid on 23rd of September, his good got to China warehouse on 25th. I notified & we shipped out on 27th of September using normal air cargo & delivery to Nigeria is 7-10days. Today's makes it 6th day we shipped out & he's very much aware. I don't think you are him

TOCHI: we placed his order from one supplier, but his goods got to China warehouse a day before start of Chinese holiday, he's very much aware and agreed to ship goods to Nigeria after the holiday. I don't think he's the one that owns this moniker

Please who are you, kindly identify yourself let me know

If I'm guilty of the offence, I will gladly apologize

Thanks

RichDad1:
Jonathan is just a leader that lack the required charisma.
Imagine external forces coming to mend fences between a former president and his state Governor.
He should just respect himself and quit politics because the amount of disrespects being hurled at him by Dickson is just too much.

WalkerMichael:
Hello bro.

Take your time to read through the pages on this thread. It's fully loaded. You don't have to invest all 150k into it. Start small then scale gradually - you can start with 20-50k as a beginner.

The YNaija Governors’ Ranking for October: Absurdities vs Revival


It’s almost like the time between the new batch of governors were sworn in and now has been a fallow period. Performance-wise, things haven’t really peaked, but we are starting to see consistency amongst a few governors. Here’s the YNaija’s Governors’ Ranking for October.

THE GOOD:
Op you're terribly mad... Please visit Abia, even Umuahia is in a terrible shape.


Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia)



Okezie Ikpeazu’s administration in Abia has been plagued by the non-payment of workers’ salaries which has led to protests in the state. But recently, there is a semblance of positive governance.

Ikpeazu is set to embark on large scale production of shoes to meet the increasing demand for locally made products, hence the idea of automated production. Aba is already popular for production of footwear, bags, belts and other leather products by creative artisans working in shops. Furthermore, no fewer than 30 young men and women from Asia were sent to China last year where they were trained in automated production of shoes.
Mods please ban him for such a misleading information.

Rotimi Akeredolu (Ondo)


Aside pushing for cannabis legalisation in Nigeria and exploring cannabis as a source of revenue in Ondo, Rotimi Akeredolu’s 100 days since he won the 2016 guber elections in the state was a good start. Now his administration has raised an alarm over the growing number of quack doctors and unlicensed health practitioners in the state.

According to the Commissioner for Health, Dr Wahab Adegbenro, the state has sealed eight private health facilities and hospitals in Odigbo Local Government Area of the state.

In terms of payment of salaries and pension, Governor Akeredolu has been proactive while offsetting salary arrears owed by the previous administration. His infrastructural and Industrialisation drive cannot be overemphasised.


Seyi Makinde (Oyo)


At this point, every thing Seyi Makinde does normalizes good governance and what it should be like. Recently, the request of the governor to access N7.6bn loan to upgrade farm settlement in areas of the state to become farm estates has just been approved by the Oyo assembly.

Makinde had, three months ago, sought the assembly’s approval for the loan. The approval was not without dissenting voices from the opposition All Progressives Congress members, who queried choices of farm settlement located in just one federal constituency.


Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos)


Much has been said about Babajide Sanwo-Olu going invisible since the start of his dispensation, devolving into social media jokes. And although Sanwo-Olu did inherit the issues bedeviling Lagos from the past administration, there hasn’t be any real, tangible impact from the governor. Lagos and its transportation system is still hampered by bad roads, and recently Sanwo-Olu just declared a state of emergency, with eight engineering firms contracted to rehabilitate and reconstruct bad roads.

Importantly, this is showing true intent towards addressing the perennial problem of bad roads, which has perniciously contributed to gridlocks over the years.


Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi)


Atiku Bagudu’s debut on this month’s YNaija Governors’ Ranking launches on a good one, by donating N30m to the Christian community in Zuru Emirates to build churches. According to Bagudu, the donation was to enable the Christian communities in Zuru to build churches and other on-going projects.



THE BAD:

Umar Abdullahi Ganduje (Kano)


Since winning the Kano election and re-elected into office, Abdulahi Ganduje is only just submitting the names of his constituted cabinet wherein he retains former commissioners. He took him five months to do, which basically indicates how he has no sense of priority and ambition, unlike his counterparts.



Godwin Obaseki (Edo)


While Edo is dealing with issues of floods and bad roads, the bickering the current governor Godwin Obaseki and his predecessor Adams Oshiomhole is still ongoing. Oshimohole, who is the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), was recently told by Obaseki to observe protocols in the state while visiting in order to ensure less acrimony. The statement implies that both figures aren’t ready to prioritise the affairs of the state.




THE TERRIBLE


Darius Ishaku (Taraba)


Darius Ishaku is making his debut on the YNaija Governors’ Ranking for the first time, and expelling a 100 student of the Taraba State University for constantly criticising him on Facebook puts him in extremely bad light. Joseph Israel, who was admitted to study Chemistry but switched later to Laboratory Science in the state-owned university, had his admission withdrawn on the excuse of not signing a matriculation form. But a look into Israel’s Facebook reveals his critique of Ishaku’s administration.

From an April 26 post, it reads: ”If Gov Darius sells seven cars in his convoy alone, he will solve the problems of Taraba State University.”


David Umahi (Ebonyi)

The YNaija Governors’ ranking for August featured David Umahi, and the backlash from Ebonyi indigenes on building an international airport in the state. This time, Umahi uncharacteristically ordered his security detail to shoot anyone who blocks his convoy. The governor gave the order following how his convoy was blocked by mourners at a wake-keep he attended in the state recently. While Umahi is entitled to protection that comes from his office, instructing that anyone that blocks his convoy to be shot is barbaric, given that these protesters are oftentimes are unarmed.

If anything, it only creates an atmosphere of tyranny in the state and public distrust.


Bello Mattawalle (Zamfara)


Despite not being able to curtail Boko Haram terrorism in Zamfara, governor Bello Mattawalle in September sent all staff of Shettima Model Primary School, Gusau on an indefinite suspension following the alleged desecration of the Holy Qur’an in the school. Now, Matawalle has announced that the state would soon enact a capital punishment law against the desecration of the Holy Qur’an in the state.

Zamfara has since instituted Sharia since 2000, and while the state’s capital punishment conforms to laws, it does feel extreme given that a majority of Northern governors have contributed to the impoverishment of their states.

pascalexmond:
I have a girlfriend of two years and since we have been dating,I ve been the one taking care of her.

Since we started dating,she has never bought me a gift or spent a kobo on me but I ve been the one buying the gifts, such as phones,clothings,shoes,give her money to make her hair and run other expenses too.

Even when she wants to go out with her friends for a sit out,she demands for money for entertainment,like #5-10k which I oblige her.

Infact,I ve been d one doing all d spending,which I know most guys will never do for 9ja babe as it seem to be magarism.

Just that I like to take care of my woman.

But,I have one big problem with this my girlfriend which is escalating by d day.

Since,I am not d type who is used to moving around with cash,there few times when we re out and we need to buy drinks,snacks, fruits or something for mostly herself & myself rarely,that I ask her for cash within d range of #1-5k.

In a day or two,she will calculate all d monies she spent,including as little as #100-500,asking me to refund her.

She has been doing this in d last two years and it is getting worse and it irritates me and I don't want to confront her to avoid a quarrel,but it still shocks me that she could be so inconsiderate.

Infact,whenever she goes out with my car with fuel in it,she will cruise around town with d car till d fuel guage is on red and don't bother to even buy fuel of #1k.

There was a day d car went off in d middle of d road after she consumed fuel of #5k.

Most times if she exhaust fuel of #3-5k and I ask her to kindly buy #1-2k to top it,she will insist and torment my life until I return d #1-2k to her.

Last Sunday,we went to a resort and I was short of #1,300 of d cash with me to pay d bill of #5,300 as their pos was having network issues and I asked her for d #1,300.

Till this moment,she is asking for the refund of #1,300.,Habaaa!!!!

This is a girl I support with #50k upkeep every month.

My brothers and sisters,this is a girl of 25 I want to marry

I ve just been thinking if her type can make a good wife or even stand by me If in marriage I go broke.

Even to cook is a challenge.

Always a champion of Cold Stone,Kilimanjaro,Tantalizer and so on that she takes pleasure in displaying on her WhatsApp status for d whole world to know what she eats.

And not that she is from a rich home.
They are just managing to survive in their family but she is always running an Audio life on social media with an iPhone x I bought for her.

I am just tired and confused b'cos I love her.

What do I do?

I think for the first time in the history of this Buhari's administration, everyone who has even just a little sense is in support of Buhari. Though Biafran Flattinos have sworn by the graves of Emeka Ojukwu and Chinua Achebe that they will never see anything good in Buhari, these same Flattinos are in support of this policy of border closure. What this implies is that Biafran Flattinos may not really hate Buhari, may it is his policies that they hate. But then, criticism is not the same as revolting, cursing and abusing our dear Buhari. Let's criticise government responsibly and work together to move Nigeria forward.

But, wait oooo, did I just type that shit up there?

I Traveled To Aba Last Weekend, And I Asked My Uncle To Take Me Round Aba Let Me See Things Myself.
Honestly I Thought It Was All About Slumps And Hips Of Dirt Everywhere. But Was Surprised To See Brand New Roads And The Ones I was Told Were Built By The Present Administration 4 Years Ago And They Are Still Standing Solid.
Check Out Few Pictures I Took...

Xisnin:

Why is it so difficult for you to reason outside of tribalism prism?

Ipob was a political tool being used to put pressure on the government and it is not a surprise
that a senator who might have other ambitions put up his money for kanu's bail.

Why didn't the Igbo billionaires rush to free him?
Because they have nothing to gain from his release.

Second, Sowore calls for a Nigerian revolution not an hate based secessionist campaign which
makes it not a Yoruba struggle.

I am assuming you know the difference between a secessionist and a potential revolutionary.
Why in the hell are you comparing kanu, the rabid dog of some politicians to Sowore, an independent
revolutionary?

Sane Nigerians have not forgotten the atrocities committed by this evil and corrupt party supervised by the ineffectual buffon himself.........

IF APC is not the answer to our Problems, there is no reason going back to the instigators of the problem. 
I'm not a politician but I would do everything not to have PDP in Government in Nigeria. 
The greatest tragedy that can befall a nation is for her citizens to suffer collective amnesia. I believe PDP believes Nigerians have short memories, if not, Ibori would not have been included in their convention committee and Jonathan would not have been allowed to talk (He ended up indicting himself as usual anyway).
For those who may have forgotten, kindly joggle your memories with the following words on marble and you will agree with me that what happened recently on was nothing but gathering of rogues.
Happy reading:
1. I acted based on Jonathan's instruction - Dasuki

2. I didn't give order - Jonathan

3. I collected 350M from Dasuki for consultation - Iyorchia Ayu

4. I only collected $30,000 from Dasuki not N100m - Bode George

5. I got N4.6b from Dasuki for spiritual purposes - Bafarawa

6. I got N650M from Dasuki for my Abuja burnt office - Thisday Obaigbena.

7. I got N2.1b from Dasuki for publicity - Dokpesi

8. I got another N100m from Yuguda he didn't tell me from where - Bafarawa.

9. I gave N100m each to Odili, Jim Nwobodo Bode George and others - Yuguda

10. The president asked me to change N10B to foreign currency for PDP delegates - Dasuki

11. My boss asked me to get $11M from the CBN - Dasuki's account officer.

12. I got order from above to pay Tompolo N13B for Maritime university land. - Nimasa DG.

13. 950m was shared in my house -- Shekarau

With all this looting and many more revealed, some people are still shouting no sign of change yet, they even say it's political persecution.

But I believe, it is the right thing to do. 
If you believe too, send this to other people to garner more support for the fight against corruption and looting in our nation. There must be consequences for such crimes otherwise Nigeria will not develop.

WHERE ARE THE #WAILERS? 
"Over 20 billion dollars unremitted to the Federation account, and if nothing is done by 2015 upward, Nigeria will know what economic crisis is"
*~ Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi*

"Whoever wins 2015 will NEVER find it easy to govern. Over 30 trillion is mismanaged, unaccounted for or missing under Jonathan."
*~ Prof Charles Soludo*

"Our reserve is depleted and our savings are squandered. Our nation is in trouble."
*~ Dr Oby Ezekwesili.*

"For seven months, NNPC did not remit any money into federation account. When I called as a sitting governor and major oil producing state, Deziani Alison Madueke refused to pick my calls."
*~ Godswill Akpabio*

"I told them to save ahead of eventualities but Jonathan had no political will to do so and this is the reason why we are in crisis, because we squandered our boom."
*~ Okonjo Iweala*

"Okonjo-Iweala, Sanusi urged us to save but we state Governors refused to save for the unseen future during the tenure of Goodluck Jonathan, despite warning from economic experts."
*~ Peter Obi*

"Jonathan is a blessed ATM machine that doesn't have secret pin number"
*~ Bala Mohammed*

* Tompolo was paid 13Billion.!
* Ex-CDS,Alex Badeh dug a pit toilet to hide $32m.
* Patience Jonathan is claiming $31m, she has sued the Nigerian state.
* Femi Fani-Kayode took 740M.
* Dasuki used trucks to load over $35B from the CBN.
* Olisa Metuh took 400M.
* Aziboala, GEJ's cousin took 6B naira.

* Jolly Nyame-2.4B naira.
* Joshua Dariye-700M naira.

15 billon dollars missing from arms fund, 10 billion naria, converted to dollars and given as gift to delegates of PDP Nation convention, Bafarawa collected 3 billion for spiritual purposes , 12. 7 billon naria for deceased NEPA staff grew wings and disappeared, 20 billion dollars missing from NNPC accounts, 23 billon naira as bribe to INEC staffs to rig the general election. The list is endless. They only left what they can't carry or unable to lay their hands on. The list continues.....
Recession didn't just happen, people looted Nigeria into RECESSION happening.
Thank God we are going out of it gradually for now and we know better days are ahead.
