It's Christian wedding
White men get married without going to churches
Go and verify

That’s another man’s tradition.

Do your African traditional wedding and go you children of confused identity

Kukutente23:
The problem with you is that what you call "tradition of a white man" is actually "church wedding". It is not tied to any tradition. Today the white man gets married without necessarily visiting the four walls of a church. White man does not have any strict tradition when it comes to weddings
Go read up history

You are ignorant. It’s white mans traditional wedding.

The real wedding in Nigeria and Africa is your traditional marriage.

Samantha125:
You're not answering my question... Why have traditional wedding ceremonies if you don't believe in tradition?

The problem with a lot of Nigerians is that they don’t they are doing the tradition of a white man when they say “White Weddding”

I would rather have an African traditional wedding than the crap people do in the name of white wedding.

Razzness:
Nowadays if I hear say US attack Iran, e no dey move me, because Iran na sure odd to respond in kind. Their strategy is very simple; match madness for madness .

The whole war now is about Strait of Hormuz, nobody dey even talk about Nuclear weapon or Ballistic missile programs again

saintopus:
This is a very good one, the United Nations and other European nations and China should make a bold statement concerning the upcoming election.

At your age, you are still falling for this kind of thing?

My goodness. A lot you Nigerians need to check your critical reasoning ability and history data because it is sad.

bizbro:
Yes 😂😂😂

Stop confusing people.

$1 off means $1 removed from the normal cost of registering domain

codemaniacs:
Don't mis-inform symbuul.

Kokonut is a mis-spelling of an english word.

While molowo is a yoruba word which limits potential buyers to Nigerians or Yoruba people or a domain investor who just wants to own it and hold it..

Chief, we are basically saying the same thing .

I didn’t want to dismiss his domain but give room for that unusual 2% unpredictability of domaining.

Why?

I have seen domains dismissed by entire domain forum getting sold for 4 figures.

Even GPExchange talked about this in the early days of reporting sales

symbuul:
Distress sale:

Molowo(.com) for ₦50k only.

Valid only today and tomorrow.

If this had an English reference like the man who sold kokonut.com, you would have at least had a fighting chance.

Domain is unpredictable, so just hang in there

Please make sure you read and understand the following posts before commenting.

The role of first lady was previously not a major role in Nigeria. Mrs Flora Azikiwe acted as hostess to visiting dignitaries.

Mrs Victoria Gowon was a style leader and often appeared in public with her husband and on her own. Women often copied her fashion styles.

Mrs Ajoke Muhammed was more reserved and she only began her activities (gardens) after she left the office of first lady.

The first lady role was not really performed during the Obasanjo, Shagari and Buhari eras.

It was Mrs Maryam Babangida that made the role a major charity role.

Mrs Babangida had her Better Life For Rural Women (later called Better Life For Rural Dwellers) through which she tried to improve the lives of people living in rural areas.

She had her annual First Lady's Children's Concert, where the child xylophonist Udo Maryam was discovered.

I have told you about the donation circuit. Mrs Babangida had similar programmes where wealthy people donated a lot of money that she used to fund her programmes.

The members of the donation circuit included Chief MKO Abiola, Alhaji Aminu Dantata, Chief Sunny Odogwu, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, Chief Molade Okoya-Thomas, Chief Razak Okoya, Prince Adedapo Tejuosho, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, Alhaji Ibrahim Dasuki, Prince Adekunle Ojora, Chief Onwuka Kalu (Onwuka Inter-Biz), Alhaji Ahmed Mai Deribe, Chief Michael Ibru, Dr Alex Ibru, Chief Sunny Okogwu, Chief Wahab Iyanda Folawiyo, Alhaji Grema Mohammed, Chief Francis Arthur Nzeribe, Alhaji Isyaku Rabiu, Dr Olusola Saraki, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, etc.

These people donated enormous sums of money at Better Life events.

All first ladies since Mrs Babangida have had similar charity programmes.

Mrs Maryam Abacha had the Family Support Programme.

Justice Fati Lami Abubakar had the Women's Rights Advancement and Protection Alternative.

Mrs Stella Obasanjo had the Child Care Trust.

Mrs Turai Yar'Adua had the Women and Youth Empowerment Foundation (WAYEF).

Mrs Patience Jonathan had the Women for Change and Development Initiative (WCDI). She also had the A. Aruera Reachout Foundation.


Mrs Aisha Buhari had the Aisha Buhari Foundation (ABF) and the Future Assured.

Mrs Oluremi Tinubu

Mrs Oluremi Tinubu founded the New Era Foundation in the Year 2000 when she was first lady of Lagos.

The New Era Foundation engaged in charity work in Lagos, it created the alternative high school for (out of school) girls, the Spelling Bee competition, the One Day Governor (for winners of the Spelling Bee competition), the Wheelchair Tennis competition, HIV/AIDS advocacy for youths, a Junior Chef competition and the New Era Youth Camp (Asisat Oshoala attended one of the youth camps when she was a teenager).

The foundation also did charity work in Liberia in collaboration with President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.


Renewed Hope Initiative

Since she became first lady of Nigeria, Mrs Oluremi Tinubu has run the Renewed Hope Initiative.

The Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI) is a non-governmental organization whose primary mission is to empower women, youth, and children nationwide through grassroots social investments, agriculture, health, and education to ensure a better life for vulnerable families.

The Renewed Hope Initiative has

⚫️ Provided ICT training for women and youths

⚫️ Provided professional kits to midwives and nurses across Nigeria in order to reduce maternal and infant mortality and support frontline health workers.

⚫️ Provided medical outreach to communities in the Niger Delta and Northern Nigeria.

⚫️ Provided targeted disease interventions by donating funds and equipment to the National Cancer Fund for cervical cancer prevention, and providing tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic machines to Primary Health Care (PHC) centers.

⚫️ Provided support to the elderly by hosting regular support schemes that provide senior citizens with free medical checks, food items, and financial grants.

⚫️ Established food banks near PHCs to provide targeted nutrition support for pregnant women, nursing mothers, and malnourished children.

⚫️ Provided grants to small and medium scale businesses to help to empower women and youths. For example:

RHI Women Economic Empowerment (WEE): Provides direct, non-repayable grants (typically ₦50,000) directly to rural and market women, petty traders, and widows in specific states.

Renewed Hope Scale-Up Grant: Targets existing Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) with grants ranging from ₦250,000 to ₦1,000,000 to stimulate local economies and job creation.

Renewed Hope Ward Development Program (RHWDP): A grassroots-level grant program aiming to provide direct funding and capital to low-income residents and working citizens in all 774 local government areas.

⚫️ Provided assistance to victims of natural disasters.

⚫️ Donated sanitary pads to girls in secondary schools and women in prisons.

Whenever I come here and see how APC have been boxed into a corner, I am always happy.

Na this Nairaland wey majority of Nigerians don’t even visit una go Dey forever.

Kdon2:
Peter obi is the problem wherever he goes. He is not a leader, he is a follower trying to be a leader. He knows nothing about leading any sane society that's why there is chaos wherever you make him a leader or co-leader. Besides there is no ojukwu or atiku to back him. Man is an absolute failure. Fvcked Anambra state up from 2007-2014.

No worry, when dem kidnap you or your family, you go tell them bandits this thing you write, you hear?

Cos most of you think you are untouchable

Neutral15:
Be like archive wan japa oooo

Nah never gonna happen. They have been I existence for over 15 years

Dogalmighty17:
See the extent they are going to just to justify the asinine statement of the first lady.
Let me ask Tinubu's data boys this questions

1. Aside the fact that the first lady has no known business, where did she earn 2 billion naira that she could give out in form of grants? The brand new buses and cars she bought for APC women leaders came from her purse right? What legitimate income source can she rightly point to as the source of that money?

2. Is it not a glaring admission of the piling economic failures of the APC that the wife of the president even has to be seen disbursing grants in the first place? And this outside the purview of established government agencies and ministries that already have grants included in their budget?

Anyhow it is looked it, it is a bad look that empowerment for the APC never goes beyond reinforcing poverty and hardship.

The day you Nigerians accept one cold hard fact we are dealing with extremely evil people is the day we will begin to treat them exactly what they are and should treated like leprosy

Mattswaggz:
The only good terrorists is a dead one but if the government thinks otherwise then they should deploy them to guard aso rock, the ministers, senators,house of rep members etc and stop endangering the lives of average Nigerians with their cruel political games......i am not sure there is anywhere in this world where such madness is done.

Have you ever asked why this is an issue and why it started late with GEJ?

Nigerians think they control their country lol.

All these politicians have higher authority they answer to.

We had better find a way to remove them

Bluna:
I will advice the founders of this party to beware of hijackers. They will soon storm your party to pursue their political ambitions

What if the usual hijackers are the one working with them? APC is likely pushing this 😂 so that they can do another damage

Amovingman:
We know that's how Peter obi behave in any party him move


See the way Peter obi spoil and ruin ndc for Dickson

You fit write all these now make bandit kidnap you. When your family pay ransoms finish, you no go get strength come nairaland come talk this kind talk ever again.


That thing una think say others Dey complain about, wey never touch you, go touch you. No worry

PulaPower:
Talk of a loser to other losers. Trump said the same thing in 2020 when he was defeated. He claimed he was rigged out bla bla bla..

The day you’re able to win elections is the day you’ll stop screaming rigging. So, take heart cuz you still have a long way to go..

You may not even have money to feed your family after Tinubu is done with your life.

Some
Of you think you are immune cos you speak English.

No worry

Nadingo:
What about PORK's NDC? It needs to go down too!

May bandit take you and never return you to your family

saintkel:
Dis bandits are in d forest of that state....people must have seen them pass by...d problem is...can't we trace n eliminate dis bastards?...and from henceforth...any bandits caught should not be pictured alive again....since dis guys wnt fire for fire

Are you not seeing the headline saying they want to negotiate with them?

As in, negotiate…

Isobug:
They should do whatever to rescue those children oo. Imagine the rains and sun every passing day with those children in the open bush, Hmmm. Whatever means they should rescue those children

So they want to negotiate with kidnappers…

Hmmmmm

Na wa o

chopnaira:
When they were asking aspirants to pay 10million naira for even state house of assembly ticket.

NDC is no different from PDP, APC, ADC, Labour and the rest. It's only sowore's party that I can vouch for.

Na nairaland una Dey spread this kind lies… e good

omoredia:
Seun well done. APC money dey work

You get time Dey mind that one…

joezyni:
where are you seeing the complains and are they getting resolved?

From my close circle, on twitter... and namepros as well.

I also paid for a domain one time after winning it and it was removed from my account. I had to call them out on namepros to reverse it.

Honestly, I don't know what is going on.

bestman09:
This is what APC has caused to us. If Nigeria is good, how can anyone in his right sense think about relocating to Togo or Benin republic? Such places are only good to go for business, not to go and live.

lol... learn to educate yourself. visiting these places is not a bad thing idea. Just go and learn about them.

2shure:
Which 800m.does he even have up to 100m. Abegi

lol.. maybe not 800M but I am sure he has up to 100M.

joezyni:
It seems that DAN is beginning to loose all of their reputation, payments that they sent since 29th of April and 3rd March is yet to hit my Grey.

I've provided the receipts to grey and they tell me there's no such transaction on their end and I should tell Dan to reverse the payment from their end.

After letting Dan know this, they are saying I should wait till the funds settle in my account or get reversed to theirs.

They are acting dumb, instead of asking for reversals, who knows if they've send funds to the wrong account cause I've actually crosschecked and I have the right account number on the receipts.

I wonder if their plan is for me to wait indefinitely or they are trying to rip me off, what is this

The irony is that even Godaddy end is having payment issue. The complaints just keep piling up...

Valwezzy:
Hmmm

What's the fate of those roadside POS kiosk or those shops that just combine the POS biz with their main business, and don't make up to 1k per day?

How they wan take see money to register?

My brother, once you understand APC ideology and what it stands for... there is NOTHING they will dishout that will surprise you again. None. Absolutely NONE!

opamoses1:
There are "magicians" in every tribe. They just don't beat their chests.

This year alone below...non of the news below made front page. Infact those boys that beat 33 other countries were in news all over Africa from Kenya to Ghana.

Nobody is holding others not to beat their chest. Idiotz

Sales Report

Veryfyd,com ( Definitely a play on the word Verified)

Sp/Bin: 4988$
Drop reg at spaceship for 2.88$
HT: 4 months..
Sv:Dan

Price was initially 3500 u know me and this nonsense figure so I change am to 4988 was trying to change to 6988 recently for some reason but forgot about it

Omo for this one I didn't want to reg it cause it was for sale last year .......but regged cause one end user reg .com.au and .au like the month before that time and it redirects to a new thing they are starting so na why I price like that tho shoulda been higher but Verifid woulda been a better one for me and I also check Veryfid and Verifyd to see if they are regged and they were so took it ....

It was for sale at cheaper price last year... Goes to show it's not about the pricing.. it's just that the end user isnt yet interested in the name yet.....

Buyer wasn't even the Australian I reg am for na someone from Philippines buy am I had make offer open they didn't even bother to negotiate....

Second Sales Report this wan happen for Saturday LTO tho so it could cancel after first month( will update if it does)

Flickerly,com
SP: 3500
Sv: Afternic
HT : 1 year 3 months
Bought at closeout for 5$+ renewal and another renewal . didn't want to renew last year but sale came so I said why not......regged cause one UK company was using it in .co.uk them don even shut down and deleted their name sef so don't know what this is... And Flicker is like to on light bulb or whatever I don't know lol na game flicker I know to disappear to another direction.......

Now if I had decided to not reg anything this year I would still have this sales since they aren't this year reg.... With my 200 names in Jan I don reach 2% str like this lol (not that it matters tho like I said profit only)........ It's somehow tho selling more than once a month is something i didn't expect ......


Also what probably gave me an edge is that I check Ed everyday I don't spend more than an hr tho or 30 mins else it will become tiring to do daily........

Cause checking daily helps since good names could fall on days u decide to rest and u won't know then u will have to reg manage manage name on the once a week u show up..... If u check daily u get to notice names that drop too much, ones that don't have value and ones that do and how to properly spend your funds .... Money tight last year so had to only reg wen I thought the names were too good and that's like once a week u will see after days of checking cause everyone too dey dropcatch.........

As opposed to My year one I only check wen I have money and na random ..... year 2 didn't have time but tried no money either so I was over picky ... But wen spaceship and one.com( this one,com na useless company don't use them oh omo they just dey frustrate everyone just to reg name... they take many days and still tell u their back end team no approve the reg 1$ promo shoulda expected that)..... start their promo I wasn't too picky for a while...


And lastly believe in your pricing end user that want will take ,,,ones that want to frustrate your life will frustrate...... If u don't believe in pricing wen negotiation come u fit confuse like I did last month lol upon everything the end user run.....on 500$ oh cause I myself wasn't sure why I reg the name and the better version was for sale so I confuse even more .....

Some end users actually think for our names to show up in GoDaddy search say we pay thousands of dollars
per year to advertise there so they feel trying to price us low would be a loss. ... And there are just others wey be winch trying to make u sell 30$....

And honestly there is no right way to domain it's all up to you to see name and decide if it make sense or not same goes with pricing just do you ....

Wishing us all more sales.....


Oh an also still surprising that despite adding better names from closeout and it making up half of my portfolio na still deleted names that's selling .... that's to show that u don't need to dropcatch or participate in auction just do wetin your budget fit reach spending 200$ on auction name and going broke isn't worth it ... .... The thing made not able to afford any name for a month then ....... I even ignore deleted list last year we'll cause I always said good ones are dropcatched anyways so who cares but I changed towards last year ending omo....I just focused on closeout only.... See me oh

Omo this thing long oh make una no vex

congrats. do you select language like Englis, french, spain in your ED when searching or you leave it blank?
