Time to throw away Christianity,if those who spread the religion through slave trade are grossly disobeying it it simply tells you it's all cooked up,it's a fake religion tbh....

Islam stands tall,there is division and some bad nuts but none will accept this nonsense!

Islam stands tall as in how ? The Arabs were also involved in slave trade .The majority Sunnis are maltreating the minority Shias( Shiites).
The teachings of Christ is a balanced one.

CBN is doing the right thing.

What i expect the scarcity of cash to achieve is that very soon, we begin to see payment systems for small businesses that will not require the use of cash. we will only need minimal cash, if bus drivers have payment system that will only require you to swipe a card on their device, you will not need to give them cash.

I expect supermarkets where you can make payments with your card to make more sales now than the open market where you must pay cash.
since i dont have much cash i will only go to the market where i can pay with my card.

Let our Fintech people go to work now.

Sound cool...but it is UTOPIA for now.
We don't have such infrastructure for such Fintech in Nigeria at the moment.
Until all the market women, artisans and commercial motorists have online transaction facilities then we are good to go.
Not every one patronize ShopRite, Next....We still have fans of Effurun, Igbudu, Main Market and San San markets.

IMO, Okowa is the WORST Governor in Delta State history.
On a scale of 1-10 on infrastructural development, Okowa scores 1.
Omo-Agege's footprints are all over Delta State.

What is Tweede Nuwe Jaar?

Tweede Nuwe Jaar, which literally means “Second New Year”, is rooted in the slave history of Cape Town in South Africa. Slaves were only allowed a single day off work a year, and they used the opportunity to celebrate. The tradition is alive and kicking today, and the annual event sees Cape Town bursting into a carnival of colour, music, dancing, and parades.

When is Tweede Nuwe Jaar?

Tweede Nuwe Jaar happens on the 2nd of January each year.

What to expect?

Tweede Nuwe Jaar is one of the biggest events in the city, attracting hundreds of performers and thousands of spectators. The performers, known as the Kaapse Klopse, don colourful suits, face-paint, hats, and parasols. They strut their stuff through the streets, with brass instruments and drums, in the traditional ghoema musical style. The centre of Cape Town becomes a huge street party for the day. It’s loud, colourful, and a great deal of fun for the whole family.

Where to go?

The performers march their way through many streets in the city, especially in the historic District Six area. It’s not hard to find them: just listen out for the lively music and singing! The Bo-Kaap (colourful houses), Grand Parade, and District Six area are the best places to catch the performers in the city.

Once the march comes to an end, the troupes and various Cape Malay Choirs head to the Green Point stadium where the competition for the winning troupe begins in earnest.

Slave Trade in South Africa?
I thought the Dutch ( Afrikaans) and the British came as settlers, later fought and subdue the Zulus, Xhosa, Hottentots, etc to take over their ancestral homelands and established Apartheid.
The Indians and Jews came as settlers as well, but did not grab lands from the Blacks .

Recently met this single lady of one. Been the one footing her bills and sending her daughter (5yrs old) to school. She told me She wouldn't let us have sex until she sees I'm committed and reality love her. Although, that's not the reason I'm talking care of her daughter, I just naturally love to spend for people I care about. Just recently, she's wanting to know how much I give my mom and why I'm the one sending her money when she has a shop and making her money.

Yesterday, she told me I don't love her enough. That, if I can open a shop for my mom , then I can do more for her. But I wasn't the one that opened the shop for her, I just supported her.

Now, we had sex for the first time last month and has been denying me sex since then. Yesterday, she came around and I initiated sex, she denied. She told me if we're ever gonna be together, I should learn how to be a man. In her world, being a man involve me cooking, laundry, take her out, and clean. I told her that's cool. But I don't know what a woman will be doing in a House if she's not working while I'm the one footing her bills. If I ask her this, she would get angry.

My fellow men, why are the requirements for sex getting on the increase these Days? Is that they way it's supposed to be?

You are a SIMP.
Grow some BALLS.
Any lady that put sex as her only offer on the table is not worth taking serious.
REDFLAG: Why is she so concern about you doing your sonship duty to your mom?
If I were you, I would have DUMPED HER.

Today is January 3rd, 2023, if you don't like yourself ,continue to date her.

Some guys dey mumu for where chenkess dey sha.
There is difference between doing things when you are in love and being used by your partner.She is using you.
Guy, get up and be a man.We are rational beings, we are not controlled by emotions.

All over the world, even in the US, when u abduct a soldier or marine, then that community will know no peace. Those people have mind, u abduct, rape and do a video of a serving millitary personnel. Bastards only understand one language only. If they learnt nothing from ODI they will surely learn it now.

Pls provide us the website link of US Marines or Seals harassing their fellow Americans/ raiding an American city because of a kidnapped soldier.
Kidnapping and raping of that female soldier is so barbaric and highly condemnable.
But innocent Nigerians should not be killed or harassed in their fatherland by NA who are meant to protect us from external aggressors.

Kewtt:
This is just the beginning ....the NA should show you people power...

Power?
What happened to military intelligence?
Kidnapping of the female soldier is highly condemnable.
But for NA to go about killing innocent Nigerians in the name of collateral damage is senseless and very unprofessional.

My 16 years old sister left the house since Christmas eve only to be returned yesterday evening at 11pm , my dad was very angry he promised to deal with her in a way she will never forget throughout her life , my mum said he shouldn't or else they will be war.

When the girl returned my dad asks where she was and she was busy chewing gums and turning her eyes like she was having epepilsy seizure my mum was shouting at him to leave her alone but my dad hit her omg the slapped sound it still haunting me.

It was my first time seeing my dad being a man of the house that he is supposed to be long time ago and I was so proud of him but that didn't last long when my mum slapped my dad back and they started fighting omg .

She beat him up my dad is not strong cus of diabetes she locked him outside saying if I dare to open the door for him she will locked me out too.

I quietly went inside my room crying and I left the house early morning to go and look for my dad he is actually at his elder brother place he says he will not return back.

I feel sorry for him and I have sworn to never marry a woman like my mum she doesn't deserve the titled wife or mother and as for my sister she is cursed for disrespecting dad and the time she will realize her mistakes it will be too late for her.

I wish my dad a long life so I will over pamper him when I become rich, I am only 20 and one day I will make him proud.

Guy you fall our hand BIG TIME...As an elder brother I am telling you this.
This na your younger sister when you sing lullaby for.( 4 years gap).She dey talk to your popsi without manners and you dey stand dey look her?
Next time, she dare talk to popsi anyhow, man up and land correct hot slap for her cheeks.
Slap her and walk away, don't fight her.
After you don walk away from your sister presence after the hot slap, send her SMS/WhatsApp message make she noh vex and tell her that her actions are wrong.That you love her as a sister that is why you gave her the resetting slap.
You guys are family, family quarrel and settle.

OP,it seems your mission&vision is to discourage Nigerians from ‘japaing’.
You may have a good VP,but the cases you have posted recently are off the tangent.
These our Nigerian brothers and sisters complaining of the harsh winter should stop throwing tantrums like a 2 years old toddler.
It is just like a pregnant lady who is in her third trimester going about complaining that she will soon go into labour( my utmost respect to all our mothers).
Migration is part of human existence, so is adaptability. They should focus their energy on how to adapt to their new clime.

Just imagine Tompolo working for Bola Tinubu and Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege in next year elections.

That I know it will happen.

Greattestman:
I've noticed the drastic change in my mother's behaviour towards me such as compelling me to rent my own house, shouting at me for any little mistake, not helping me financially and even badmothing me to neighbours.

I took the case to my uncle (her elder brother), he said for not helping me with money, the reason is that my mother is saving money for her upcoming traditional wedding. I was surprised.

When I came back home and asked her, she unleashed anger on me and almost curse me to death. The worst part of it is giving me ultimatum to vacate my own father's house. Who the hell does that? I can't take that!!!

So she want to marry her new husband to your father's house? Seems that man does not have shame.

BTW: Your mom has no right to chase you from your father's house, you can chose to leave voluntarily when you are due to stay on your own.

The car registration should be investigated by Nigerian Police Force to know the true identity of the 'mad' soldier.
Legal action should be taken against him.

I will not vote for Okowa because in my own opinion ,he is a wicked towards pensioners.
He has maradona his way to plant his stooge in the forthcoming elections in Delta State, but from all pointers, Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege is the man Deltans want.
Atiku, I know not.
Okowa, I know not.
Ovie Omo-Agege, I know.

Election in Delta State 2023: If you put the car in D (vote for Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege-APC-), you go forward (Delta State will go forward). If you put it in R (vote for PDP), you go backward (Delta State will remain backward).

Deltans vote for Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege to move Delta State forward.

Check the last statement of popular atheists:

"Famous Last Words, From Atheists, Before They Died - Religion - Nigeria" https://www.nairaland.com/4426228/famous-last-words-atheists-before

piphunter:
Religion was indoctrinated into people as kids. You had little or no choice. Some eventually seek knowledge and eventually ask critical questions when they grow older. There are thousands of Religions on earth and people from other religions are all going to hell according to other religions so relax. Religion was brought to Africa as a tool to control. In another timeline we Africans will probably be worshiping our African gods/deities if Christianity/Islam was not brought to us. If you were born in Asia for example you'll probably worship a different god. Religion was born out of mans inability to explain everything around them. Thanks to science and technology man is now wiser and can explain with certainty many phenomena that earlier humans attributed to something supernatural or unexplainable. Back in our not so distant past, men worshiped the moon as a god. The same moon the modern man has stepped foot on as at many decades ago. That being said iam not an aethist neither am i religious. Broaden your mind, seek knowledge and ask questions.

White men did not bring religion to our ancestors.Our ancestors understand there is a SUPREME BEING hence all the ethnic groups have a name for that SUPREME BEING.
To me , I see atheists as people who are groping in darkness.

Where is the approval in this video?

I saw it coming

Sometimes before we type anything in the SM space, we should think well.
Do you have a substantial evidence to back up your claim that Pastor Adeboye is an occult man.
Can you furnish us with the Confraternity , maybe I would like to join too.
BTW, you are an ill-mannered fella ..why addressing Pastor Adeboye as "bastard".
You really need to grow up.

Mystery2020:
"They finally employed you. I hope you have a strong shoe", she said. I did not understand what the teller meant.

I had spent about a quarter in this new generation bank, I was ridiculed, insulted and bullied by the head teller and cash officer who is a Unilag graduate, the branch manager (BM) who once accused me of stealing, and my new supervisor who just got back from maternity leave.

This new supervisor, Fatima, was a curvy ebony naturalised Hausa-Fulani woman. One day, she asked if I have a lover. Then told me to come along with her for a drink. She wanted to take me out after the naming ceremony of the head teller's new baby, but I refused to attend. The following week, she began telling other staff members that I am stubborn. This was the genesis of my problem with her.

A lot of flirting used to happen in that place. Only two of the women out of eight were spared; one Yorubanised Hausa woman and maybe the CSM. Even the CSM gave me flirty looks several times. One of the tellers once called me gay. Asking if I don't have erections.

A new girl was hired. She was an introvert like me, but from Enugu state and a graduate of ESUT. Coincidentally, one of the Yoruba staff and a Business Administration graduate of OOU served in her village. This young lady, an Anglican, can be mistaken as the daughter of the Nollywood and Yoruba language actress popularly known as Lanre Hassan.

She made it known to management that she prefer to be in operations. However, she was brought to marketing. She said they told her point blank at head office HR that all employees in our cadre must first work as a marketer regardless of their qualifications. She had no choice but to accept the offer, so I decided to help her adjust and settle down.

The BM is a Catholic, who once forgot to attend Ash Wednesday mass despite always wearing a rosary. He is the temperamental type who takes first impression seriously. He is the first child of his family, and was often tasked with carrying the ladder up and down the streets of Nnewi for NITEL technicians when they're trying to fix the family's landline. His first car, a Honda "baby boy" Accord was stolen at gun point.

The BM, owns a shell company with address in Lekki where proceeds from dubious deals are laundered. Some of these proceeds he shared among the operations staff headed by one pretty lady; a charismatic Catholic & graduate of Ekpoma. I was told by a teller that this lady (CSM) once approached the manager to give her and the boys 'something'. This teller lives in a 'selfcon' in Surulere, which he inherited from his grandmother.

They tested me withing my first week of resumption. They sent me to a customer; a Micro Finance bank in Ikeja, with a t-fare double the required amount. When I returned, I wanted to return the balance but they all ignored me. They sent me to the MFB again the following day. I simply used the balance from the previous day. I thought I did the right thing, not knowing that they only wanted to know whether I came to Lagos to "count bridge". A question the 'Surulere' teller eventually asked me rhetorically.

They lied to me that I can not request for a t-fare lower than what I got previously again, because they will be queried by internal control. A lady in the customer care unit who attended FGGC Calabar, tried to ginger me not to answer them, but I gave in and continued to accept the bogus t-fare. Months later, the OOU graduate told me to stop behaving like a saint, that even my then supervisor who is married to an Mbaise woman collects double of that figure.

Just before the ESUT lady resumed, the manager withdrew the branch car from me, then gave me a target to open 80 accounts, sell 40 cards/POS, and mobilise ₦40 million, all within a month among other tasks. He was also using me as his P.A. and 'man Friday' for his exportation business & family Charity.

The manager refused to give the ESUT girl targets. He played a smart one by asking her, "Do you know what your target is"? She answered "no". While walking away & pointing to me, the manager said to her, "Ask him". I responded like an imbëcile; 80 accounts, 40 cards/POS, ₦40million monthly. To add salt to injury, the branch car was made available to her most times.

She was given tasks that will make her develop faster as a banker. While I was left to roam about the streets of Lagos on foot like a lunatic, who is possessed by a legion of vagabond spirits recently rendered homeless by D.K. Olukoya of MFM. Three months later, our mate in another branch told me he never go on errands without their branch car, and that he even took driving lessons with it. Na dis kind people fit the industry. Lol.

This new girl almost made the same 'first impression' blunders I made that earned me the title of "the laziest staff the manager as ever seen". I was there for her at every step, mentoring her and teaching her how to deal with them (other staff members). I will defend her in her absence whenever they speak ill of her, and always advise her on how to correct these bad impressions. I never knew that I myself had become the topic of their gossips. They gossip me even with cleaners, drivers and security men.

There was a day I came late due to an accident in which my knees were bruised. They were still in the morning meeting when I got there. The BM queried "why are you just coming? who died?". "I will make this place unbearable for you if you don't sit up".

Then the scheming against me began to heat up. She joined them to gossip me. There was a time I caught three of them by the elbow; Fatima, ESUT girl and CSM. The Ambrose Ali lady (CSM) quickly lied that the manager was asking of me. I knew she was lying but just had to leave the room. I was thinking the ESUT girl will gist me later. I am still waiting for the gist as I type this föölish epistle.

Then ESUT girl started mocking me codedly. "You are going again?" She will ask with a sadistic smile whenever I am about leaving for marketing.

For six months they tried to destroy me psychologically. I will save what they did for later. My mates in V.I., Apapa, Nnamdi Azikiwe, and somewhere else in Lagos Island which I won't mention got similar toxic treatments, but with different flavours.

Their breakthrough came during an arranged MPR meeting where I was thoroughly mocked by all the staff. The BM even called me a slowpoke. ESUT girl laughed at their insults to my dismay. Then the manager noticed my mood has changed, & sensed the opportunity to go in for the kill. Stand up!", he shouted at me, I refused. They all shouted, stand up! even the ESUT girl. Then the head teller said in Yoruba, what the hell is wrong with this boy?" That got me really pissed off. I scanned the room, my previous supervisor was biting his lips and smiling slightly. The manager snapped his fingers at me, making the impression of 'I will deal with you'.

The CSM called me for a chat, she pretended as if she cared. But her opening statement gave her away. "What you did was very rude", referring to the MPR incident. She wasn't present. Her, the first teller who asked me if I have a strong shoe, the FGGC Calabar lady, and one other teller, a man from Kwara, left the room to attend to a matter before the attack happened.

She kept going round in circles, asking stupid questions like do I have problems convincing people to open accounts? Asking me if anyone in the branch offended me. Asking me to tell her what they did wrong so that they can avoid such mistakes in the future. I was now convinced it was an exit interview. I got to know they planned the whole thing a couple of months before.

By 12 noon I got a one-page query for insubordination and two other offences; the third was a serious one. He copied the HR Business Partner who was a graduate of English Language, and 2 other executives. I won't be surprised if he did a Blind Carbon copy to the entire banking group. I replied in three lines. Business partner said I should report to a particular HR staff on Friday of that week.

On Monday, I reported to head office, HR staff has gone on leave. It was another HR officer who attended to me. A short lady, she covered her ID card so I didn't see her name. She asked, "What did you do to them that made them write all those things against you?" I did not do anything, I replied. "And they wrote all those things", she said. "They can not all be bad people", she continued. She said I showed too much anger in my reply to the query. She then went on to give me a lecture on anger management. I kept looking like mumu.

Worried about my calmness, she asked me what the problem was. I told her I have become addicted to painkillers. She asked what my future career plan is, and I told her. Of course it was not banking. She said there are more mad people in that particular sector. She said they will get back to me.

My system password was about to expire the week of the incident, but I didn't reset it. I came around Tuesday morning to know my fate, nothing.

On Wednesday, BM showed me a letter from HR Business Partner dated Tuesday, indicating that I was done. "This is what I have been telling you", he said. He asked me to login and send my handover note but I told him I can't. He was trying hard to hold his laugh.

A month later, I was getting strange calls from unknown numbers. Maybe they wanted to know if I have committed suicide. By the grace of God I am gainfully employed.

Brotherly, this write up is enough to be a script for a documentary.
Maybe you should pen this experience in a novel form.....for people to learn- especially Emotional Intelligence/Peoples Skills.
