Family / Re: Help: My Father Is Killing My Mom Gradually by SmartMen: 1:01pm On May 05, 2020
Lekan239:
My parents got married 27years ago, since then it has been hell for my mom. It's as if my mom was forced on him or did the love just seize to exit, this I need advice on, from my brothers and sisters here on what to do next.

It all began in 1993, two years later I was born (1995), then we reside in Lagos but my dad later moved to pH in search of greener pastures. He only comes back home (Lagos) once in a while. My mom tried all her best to cater for her kids during all those period with no help or whatsoever coming from my Dad. It wasn't easy at all.

Fast forward to early 2003, my dad came visiting after two years without hearing from him and then my mom decided we are going with him to pH, he opposed but my mom Insisted. To cut the long story short, after we get to pH we found out my dad was living carelessly, womanizing, his social life is zero because he doesn't drink or smoke but he lavished all his money outside and Care less about his family.

My mom strived and engaged in little business which we managed to survive on. My dad only comes home when he is Short of money and acted low and submissive but as soon as he got some money, he changed immediately.

So 2010 I left pH to the village, was writing waec, looking for admission and so on, later going to lag to hustle around 2013 as I'm the one to foot my education expenses.

2015 I gained admission in a polytechnic, after my OND in 2017 I went back to lag to begin the hustle as I have to further my education, all this period I did not visit my family in Port Harcourt. I went back for HND in 2018 but had to withdraw because of lack of funds, I went back again in 2019 because a family member advised he will foot the bills which he later didn't do.

So because of this covid 19 I visited my parents in pH. My mom was very ill, she can't move nor stand and she has been the one taking care of the family, my father inclusive. My father has been a lazy man who depends solely on his wife for survival. He does not work, he does not stay at home with his sick wife. 6am he will enter the kitchen and eat any food he finds he won't even ask if four of his kids and my mom will eat. He will go and sit down in people's shops around the streets discussing with people's wife's. 10am he will be back home, straight to the kitchen to check if there's any food if my mom had drop money for us to prepare food, he will eat it without even talking to anybody, in fact he owns the kitchen now. He repeats same 2pm, 5pm and night meal also. I'm just so angry right now I don't even know what I am typing again.

After seeing all this behavior i advised my mother to give him some space, she gave birth to four children for him and three of us can survive on our own as we are no longer kids, but she won't obliged it's just as if maybe she is okay with suffering.

Today this morning, my dad did the most outrageous thing, he woke up and started ranting, saying does my mom think he is not going to be rich later, and he won't stay here forever. I got the message he was passing that he is going to leave my Mom if he stumbles upon some money. And I exactly told my mom this statement yesternight too.

Please you guys should advise me on what to do because at this junction, it hurts me a lot having the knowledge that my mom is with man who doesnt care or love her, even at her sick bed, he never for once visited the doctor nor the man of God taking care of my Mom.


I am grateful that you have wisdom, which is the most paramount in discerning what to do.

What you need is courage and boldness to confront this situation. Though you have but it is not yet fully alive, ABOUT 50% of it is still sleeping.

Be bold.

Take my advise, acquire a skill, digital skill especially that you can use to get freelance jobs in and outside Nigeria. You will be here and commanding money. Visit the nairaland business section and scan through what u can do.

This will come handy when you must have finish your HND and looking for almost non existing jobs in Nigeria.

What kind of digital skills can you acquire?

1. Video Editing

2. Graphics Editing

3. Website Designing, App Development, Coding

How to make money with these?

You can use 1 and 2 to make 3 bring you money.

Let's say you see a business page of a company that does not have a website. Build a rapport of by offering 1 or 2 as free gift to them that they can use to promote their businesses with the graphics or video you made for them... keep chatting them up and checking up on them once a while... after you see they have become comfortable with you, you can pitch your website design to them or ask them to recommend you to someone.

Over time, you will gain a lot of clients or customer.

There are other areas you can function which is importation from china... but this one, for advance people, you will need to learn a lot of digital marketing skills such as facebook ads, profitable products to promote...., logistics, and a host of other things... though VERY stressful but the money you will make is super good. some guys make as much as 400k per month from this...

You can turn around and teach all these for a fee to people who want to learn.

May lack of money depart from you starting from now if you take actions on this steps. It wont be easy though... but with determination, u will conquer.

Business / Re: Ecommerce Business Owners - What Shipping You Use For Your Business? by SmartMen: 10:04am On May 04, 2020
chinnyonwu:
Good evening my fellow business people, I sell cake tools online and operate from Aba.

I use God is Good logistics and Nipost to send orders to my customers outside the state1. GIGL has the issue of being too expensive.. Imagine someone paying shipping of 3k for a little item he bought 3k?
Nipost has the issue1 of general unseriousness (no standardised shipping rates) ..

I'm curious to know if there are more affordable shipping options out there that i am not aware of? What do you use for your business?

This is how I and others do ours.

I have a bunch of a friends across different geopolitical zones that handles deliveries.

We send it to them, they pick up from the park and deliver to our buyers. That way, returns are duly managed.

Technically it is more expensive by extra 1500 to 2000 but it is more profitable this way and minimizes returns.

Ok guys, this is something I've been wanting to do for a while. Many Akata females in US have been getting tired of their fellow Akata men, and they migrated to Jamaica to look for men, only to find out that Jamaican men were no better than Akata men.

Now they have begun looking into Africa and especially Nigeria to look for men. Now, my naija brothers, you have to help your destiny. If na America your destiny is, abeg follow the Akata and leave that hellhole called Nigeria o. But before you take the dive, here are a few things you may want to consider. If you can put up with all of it, please go ahead. If you can't, then don't follow Akata enter ya grave o.

A word is enough for the wise.

Samrocker:
I met her in my 100L days... But she said she got a boyfriend in Lag. But she made it known to me how really bad her boyfriend is treating her.
She is very loyal type of girl that she told me she can't cheat on her boyfriend despite all my trial and effort to win her heart to me!

Fast forward to 100L second semester, she called me on phone and asked if I was around that she has something to tell me. She came to me sobbing really bad and crying. She explained to me her boyfriend called her on phone and asked for a breakup.

I felt sorry for her because she narrated how she was dis-virgin by the guy.

So she slept over that night ... And eventually we started dating......

It's been over a year we have been dating now... She is so sweet and loyal ...

Not until she called me last month, her ex came with his new car to see her at home.

I was very surprised about this... But she said nothing attached, he just came to apologise...

But after few days... Her ex began to chat her up on insta... And promising her heaven and Earth that she should give her another chance....

She screenshoted everything to me herself.....


Plz I deeply need advice... What should I do to keep this girl from going back to her ex... Cuz her ex is financially okay than me....�...


Am afraid... Plz what should I do guys?

A man does not bother about this. Listen, never fight over a girl or force her to follow you.

Tell her that it is in her court and that she is free to stay with your or go with the ex. Then watch her decided.

Meanwhile, start looking for a backup babe asap...

If you cannot create a cheap, quick and effective testing kit, you can:

1. Sell things people are looking for. Production and supply of face masks are pobably one of the most lucrative things you could do now.
2. Sell hand sanitiser
3. Regular food deliveries
4. Make websites for businesses who might want to switch to switch to online sales
5. Handle social media for businesses looking to start selling online
6. Offer personal training for people who want to keep fit
7. Offer classes remotely for kids who are out of school - maths, english, music, languages etc

Shut up. Don't divert the questions. So why was Buhari releasing them and paying ransom? Chad has disgrace them.

I have always know Nigerian leaders in Buhari are the ones behind Bokoharam.


Remember Bokoharam once picked Buhari as a mediator. Buhari also once said, an attack on Bokoharam is an attack on the North.

The middle class will understand what it means to be poor in this country and will use their brain next time. They victimize the poor, make fun of them and the middle class will FIRST be eaten by the poor and then be shrunk by economic activities of the country, fall from middle class to being poor and then a brain reset will happen but it will be too late.
