I had to login for this...

Your story is not complete. Will you be kind enough to be more elaborate?

1) How did you ascertain it's actually a police officer that contacted you?

2) Did he call? If yes, how was your number gotten?

3) Those files shared, are you sure it's not doctored?

Pls, be extra vigilant these days o. I will advise your hubby to contact his account officer on official visit. Kindly request from him/her list of account numbers associated with your BVN (court order might be needed).

That's the first step even before contacting palmpay as advised above

We cannot say for sure if he’s a police officer. He only stated his name and his division.

No he did not call, he contacted my husband through WhatsApp. The WhatsApp num is off but someone can reach my husband via WhatsApp.

The file is a statement of account of the palmpay account. We checked the palmpay account and truly it carries my husband’s full details.

Thanks

Crime / False Accusation, Please Help by SoCalm: 1:57pm On Jan 30
Please help.
My husband is currently being investigated for fraud which he did not commit.

Okay what happened is that a police officer called my husband saying that my he is under investigation for fraudulently transferring money to his palmpay account and is being tracked.

The police officer went on to share files that show that they have been tracking my husband since April last year.

My husband swears he does not have a palmpay account.
Obviously someone used his bvn to open a palmpay account last year, transferred money to the palmpay account and withdrew it.

How do we address this please?

Please mums help a ftm.
My baby has had this sweat looking rashes from 2nd day of birth. How do I clear them? Its not itchy or disturbing her.
Again, what baby cream do recommend? Shes a week old and I haven’t started rubbing any thing on her body.
Also she farts alot while breastfeeding and hasn’t pooed in 2days. What could be the cause? Thanks.

REPOST!
Some one posted this a few years back and I thought to share.
Sorry for the long post

Diapers (buy one pack newborn, 2 packs size 1 and one pack size 2, to get you through that first few weeks. Then buy according to size after). newborns can go through 8 diaper changes daily (!!!! ) and boys pee more, but don't buy too many because you can't predict size of your baby and you don't know quickly they will grow (I've seen a baby go from newborn to size 2 in 3 weeks). so at least 1 or 2 pack of newborn diapers will hopefully last you for a week and if your baby still needs newborn, buy weekly. If after it finishes your baby needs size 1, at least you have 2 packs at home to give you time before having to run to the supermarket or market to buy more.

Baby wipes: look for the unscented ones, less likely to irritate skin.

Diaper rash cream: Sudafed is what all my sisters used (especially the one who is a pharmacist). But try and change your baby once it gets wet so it's not sitting in a wet diaper that ends up causing diaper rash.

onesies (if you're in Nigeria, get the sleeveless or short sleeved version. Do the same, one pack of 5 newborn, a one pack size 0-3).

try not to buy too many newborn sizes as babies grow like beans (very quickly). Even better, inherit some from others (I just got a lot of onesies and newborn clothing from someone whose baby has outgrown hers, so I didn't bother buying clothes).

Same with clothes and shoes, try not to buy too many until 3-6 months (God knows how many times I have been driven insane looking for one leg of baby shoe or sock that fell somewhere. And it wasn't even my own pikin sef grin ) get a few mittens until your liver is strong enough to file or cut those really sharp baby nails (because they will scratch their faces).

Receiving blanket, a few caps and some wrappers for swaddling. Ejoor look for really thin wrapper (the old type they sold was better and cotton, a breathable fabric which means less heat. So raid a parent's cupboard for their old wrapper). Or buy muslin swaddle blanket (size 44"x44" minimum).

Burp cloths: I don't like the terrycloth ones (those ones that look like towels) because they don't absorb well. Instead get the cotton clothe diaper (that rectangular fabric that's thick). Works like a charm and sometimes cheaper.

Do you have a car? If yes, get a car seat (convertible preferred over infant but you will most likely find infant more in Nigeria). Chicco and Graco make good brands.

It's upto you to decide if you want to buy pacifiers. One pack should be fine.

Bassinet and cot: if you can also inherit this from someone, do (they tend to be pricey). If not, just buy a travel bassinet and remember some babies hate cots (though eventually you will want your bed back and kick the baby out to their cot).

Towels: don't buy baby towels, they are usually very thin and stay damp longer and breakdown faster (mine was from Mothecare). Preferably buy regular very soft towel (100% cotton) which will last longer. Same with washcloth.

lots of small nylon bags and big trashbags for diaper disposal and a pack of Baking soda and a good dustbin with a lid. When you dispose of dirty diapers, use a good bin with a tight cover and sprinkle some baking soda at the bottom of the dustbin (this helps to trap odours). At the end of the day, you tie up trashbag and take it outside (instead of constantly running after every diaper change to fling it).

Baby set: please look for one that has nail cutter, thermometer, comb, nasal pump, baby medicine spoon, nail file. Avent sells one like that.

No need for stroller, especially if in Nigeria. Which road is not dusty and uneven unless you're in the mall. Get a baby carrier (Bjorn makes good ones, they're expensive but I inherited my sisters own 10 years later. Quality is cheaper in the long run).

Diaper bag: lots of decent ones out there (I got a messenger bag type so my hubby could carry it, my sister used a strong backpack). Look for one that has changing pad inside it.

Olive oil and Shea butter for body cream rather than baby body creams. I hear most of the Johnson's on the market is fake and at least Shea butter is cheap, natural and does a beautiful job, same with olive oil.

Baby wash

Bibs (look for one size fits all).

Treated mosquito net

Bouncy chair and activity gym (so you can keep your baby somewhere if you need to have your hands free, like when bathing or cooking or just watching tv or answering the phone. Activity gym is for when baby starts rolling, put it on the floor (because I'm tired of hearing stories like "my baby rolled off the chair and fell on the floor, should I go to the hospital?? ".

an electronic sterilizer set (microwave) because all the doctors in my house dislike sterilizing tablets. But it is your choice sha. Avent makes one sterilizer set that comes with feeding bottles so no need to buy any more.

Plastic spoon and plate (but you won't need this for a while).

Are you breastfeeding, pumping or doing formula?

Please don't dress your baby up more than you. If you feel hot, your baby feels hot (even faster). If you feel cold, your baby feels cold (even faster). So unless you're constantly in an a.c. on blast, ejoor let your baby relax and use less clothing. Yes, Mama Nkechi or Mama Teni will have all sorts of unnecessary and unwanted advise to give you, but please listen to your common sense. Please listen to your common sense more.

Please don't give your child baby paracetamol or agbo to drink. The only person giving you medical advise should be a pediatrician (who will also tell you what to do and how to treat circumcision and umblical cord.

Please note that you get to start using it after 3months of registration.

It it one of the schemes in nigeria that hasn't totally collapsed. I would have amassed a huge hospital bill just this year with my frequent tests and scans alone if I wasn't an enrollee.
Wow… thanks for your response

That's the best thing you can do for yourself and your unborn baby. Register three people with 45k.

Just make sure you choose the right HMO and an Nhia friendly hospital.

You go enjoy am after 3 months.
Wow thank you. I just hope it’s not too late to register at 33 weeks.

Which money do you want to spend in registration? R u a govt or private org. Worker?
Cos as a govt employee as of then, I did mine absolutely free even though I Ve not use d services since three years ago, cos I hardly fall sick.
But y wait till 8month b4 thinking of registering?
If the money is not much, register cos it will benefit u in d long run.

We were told 45000. I just got to know about it
Health / NHIS Late Registration by SoCalm: 1:08pm On Oct 08, 2023
Hello everyone.
Please is it still advisable to register for nhis at 8 months pregnancy?

I heard it take at least 2 months to be effective. I don’t want to waste the money as baby can come anytime from 8 months.

NHIS officials or beneficiaries, please advise me.
