That's a good price. I think she's trying to bring good to the family, don't you think? That's why I told you to tell us the 2023 price and listed all your prices for comparison so you can see what it's worth.
wunmi590: Not each, he bought the 3 rams for 800k..
So divide 800k by 3, thats how much he got them
No, I want him to answer the question. Last year he got for 500k each. This year, we are dividing it. He himself has been to the market to price and all comments above have not said any ram they've seen is 200k+
Although I have walked around the market to price Ram, unfortunately the price is so outrageous, and I can't even stand it.
This gives me the idea to plan my budget, and I gave her 800k for 3 rams with the hope that if I am not comfortable, I will buy one Ogunfe to support it. And here is what she delivered...
You have more AI advice but I like the perspective it gave about what may be on your mother's mind and our cultural contexts. I assume you are also Yoruba. You have already told us the price so I am not sure how you want to maneuver that offline. But Nigerians like to chook nose in everything, it's you that will know what to tell them and what not to.
princepee: If your step mom give you a Avery big cow for hundred thousand, your mom will still not appropriate it .. Your mom believe she is in competition with her... But somehow I believe your step mom have a good heart.. One of those ram is more than 150k here in Yaba. We all love our Mom but I believe your mom is the bad one in the family. Sorry to say.
I wouldn't call her bad, it's just some women's nature. She may be highly spiritual and think everything comes at a cost meanwhile the other wife is trying to please her. Unfortunately, she may never be able to please her because if someone makes up their mind not to like you, they won't.
Seriously, I don't know how to appreciate her enough, but my mom is not comfortable with the RAM and said it's too small for that amount...
All this, my mother doesn't go out or know what things are being said in the market, but she keeps annoying me with her resistance to the good gesture of my stepmother.
Your mother has not yet priced market in this Tinubu economy. I saw one of these rams you are showing us for 800k. Who's your stepmums plug?
I don't know how old you are but as a man you have to be wise with women especially in polygamy. Women's nature can be funny and they play funny games, including your mum too. I know you will find it hard to believe but it's true. That's why I asked about your age. Get closer to your dad and see things from his perspective then learn how to manage both mothers. You are a responsible man and God bless you for the way you handle your dad's wives. I don't want to recommend some of the resources I always post here but go through my posts, you will find them. You will never understand women but there are certain traits that they have you must know and once you know this, you know how to manage them.
Lastly, you are obviously a Muslim. Find out how to give your mom a sermon on this part
Seriously, I don't know how to appreciate her enough, but my mom is not comfortable with the RAM and said it's too small for that amount...
I know about your religion and like other religions, there is something it says about the etiquette of receiving certain things or you want me to give you references? Don't give her the sermon yourself, find a way she will get the message maybe through your spiritual leader or someone she will hear from and think again about her reaction.
elder1002: Land grabbing but the owners of the land dont want to develop it.
When a land has been underdeveloped for 10-15yrs the government can collet that land and resell to another .
A land mot used for farming or commercial activities, just open and vast abd green snd has been there for years.
No development No structure No plan
Just empty and void.
If am in wikes shoes i will do worse ..i will revoke all land that hasn't been developed in the fct by private individuals for over the past 10yrs down and revoke it.
Resell it to people and give an untanium of 5yrs to start development or risk land revoked and transferred to another.
So. You think every land must have building on it? You even talk down on green land? Hmmmm
adams123: All villages in Anambra state have portable water to drink when obi was governor??
Obi is doing high service to get president and he failed as governor. Sowore is my candidate
I ignored your comment initially because from the first line, I already knew your mindset. Anyone who is of a different opinion is either Ibo, Anambra or Obidient. That's shallow thinking. However, if I am gracious enough to reply you, it's that I want to wish your candidate all the best!
Duke could have had the wave Obi has today if he was persistent in 2007 period. I remember he was one of those considered for deputy back then when the Governors wanted one of them to be both President and VP which made us end up having Jonathan and Yar'Adua.
Hemanwel: Last-minute appointments and promotions. We shall reverse all these when our men, His Excellencies Peter Obi and Kwankwaso are elected come next year.
.. When Tinubu loses in January, you will be surprised at what he will sign and approve in the five months he has left. Even surprise will be surprised at you.
History is repeating itself. Water corporation went down south. Most public facilities were privatized in the name of money. It was a great departure from what we had. Marwa was the last Governor before him so these charges affected Lagosians so much they do not know they are suffering.
Ahayalift: So sad that he had opportunity to make Great Name for his Children and unborn generation as President that made Nigeria great but he did not. Very sad to see that The world is getting worse daily.
For those who don't know and I don't blame them, I want them to use AI to find out about him. His policies as Lagos Governor are not different from what he is doing now. When they use AI, they must make sure AI uses trusted newspaper archives from 1999 to 2007 because his propaganda machine have tried to rewrite history. Remember when he said we'll have a trillion naira economy? He wasn't joking. This prompt below was for his healthcare policies because it was close to home 👇
Tax lover showed you who he was, you refused to believe him. Keep dreaming
SixSeven: He is. It is in this scenario that he can never be able to match Awolowo's legacy of free education. He was the first to raise the school fees of LASU to a high fee and they claimed that education wasn't cheap. That move made education out of reach. Now the same thing is playing out, after school fees have been increased due to his policies, they then give you a Greek gift called student loans. Not grant, a loan. So you are indebted to pay what they raised so high due to their policies.
What is being done in federal is no different than what he did as a Governor. You don't teach an old dog new tricks.
I like him though, he does not pretend to be what he is not. It's those who pretend that he is malevolent that surprise me. I am sure you watched his remarks at the African CEO Conference in Kenya. He has no mercy for the poor so whenever someone shows you who they are, believe them.
Tenses: I also have that same mindset but a little different. Nigeria is a wrong place to have and raise up a girl child. Nigeria has zero protection over a girl child compared to Europe, USA and other developed countries.
I would want Nigeria legislators to pit forward laws aimed at protecting the girl child. Females are easy targets. Even the well trained ones can be victims of rape and forced substance abuse.
I am a father of 4. My first 3 are boys. I was contented and fulfilled except my wife who keeps nagging that she wants a girl child.
I told her having a girl child will reduce my life span. When ever she step out of my sight I'll be worried.
Is she safe? Hope one useless boy is not planning one stupid thing like that? Hope she has not fallen into one chance? Hope one yahoo boy has not taking her used menstrual pads?
It's endless.
Now I have a girl child who's 4 month. She's the sweetest thing in my life but I can't help to worry over her.
Hezzyluv: Who's the Ryanair sef? And what's shaking of this table all about?
Ronaldo used plural champions (his team mate join) and not champion!
. There's no I in team but I understand the bigger picture. It's a brand product. Messi posted the World Cup winning picture alone but maybe Ronaldo should have posted 1 picture instead of cloning himself all around that image
Disgrace on the state governments for not being able to provide potable water for their people in both states. It should never be the job of private individuals in the first place.
Do you remember the so called new Sherrif in town? It was Osinbajo who gave us the vibe in two weeks than what Buhari could do. Just be careful of sycophants, they are many in Nigeria.
SixSeven: He learned it from the so-called democratic or progressive man 🤡, his boss, Concensus. Wike is proof that Bola is not a true democrat and the power he has today is for his selfish reasons. This further confirms that Tinubu did not win Rivers state so he has to use force in the state.
Tinubu's path to victory is 1. Voter apathy
2. Divided opposition
3. Force/threat (he has been using this in Lagos for long but with federal resources, he now has governors like Okpebolo, Wike, SP Akpabio who's always assuring that he will win and others to threaten people to vote him or else)
4. Money (what's your price? This is why he and Atiku are two sides of a coin)
5. Propaganda (gaslighting, see how they celebrate the uncompleted coastal road)
