Can anyone guide me on how to book a flight from ibadan to Lagos, one way ticket.

Also, the likely amount it can be

Thank you

Just head over to airlines like Arik Air or Air Peace's websites, select your one-way flight from Ibadan to Lagos, pick your date, enter your details, and voilà, you'll see the fare/amounts

I recently came across a post where someone claimed they charge $18,000 to mentor others. Yes, eighteen thousand dollars! And while everyone has the right to value their time and effort, I think we first need to reflect on something before we agree with the person.

What about the reward from Allah?

What if you mentored someone, helped them, guided them not for money, but for the sake of Allah?

The Prophet ﷺ said:

"When a person dies, all their deeds end except for three:

(1) Sadaqah Jariyah (ongoing charity), (2) Beneficial knowledge, Or (3) a righteous child who prays for them.”
(Sahih Muslim 1631)

Mentoring is one of the most powerful forms of beneficial knowledge because it multiplies.

One mentee becomes ten. One spark of guidance may become a fire that lights the path for generations.

And you want to trade that for $18,000 or more?

Yes, $18k is a lot but what if Allah repays you with more than money?

What is good health worth? People spend fortunes to regain it.

What about safety? How many would give everything to escape danger, kidnapping, or illness?

What about seeing someone succeed and knowing you were part of that journey? The joy, the dua, the barakah. I think these are priceless.

How many teachers today were remembered, rewarded, and rescued from hardship by former students they once mentored for free?

Let’s not reduce mentorship and guidance ONLY to a business transaction. Sometimes, what you offer for free or at lesser price becomes the ladder that lifts someone out of darkness and Allah makes you their reason for success.

To those who think of charging just because others do, please pause.
Maybe your $18,000 is already on its way from the One who sees what no one sees.

Be kind. Be generous. Be the one who gives, even when others take.
Your real reward is with Allah, and it never fades.

May Allah make us vessels of beneficial knowledge and bless us with hidden barakah in ways no money can match. Ameen.

I see your point, and I truly respect the perspective of valuing mentorship as a means of giving back and seeking reward from Allah. It's definitely a noble intention to mentor for the sake of Allah, and the reward from Him is far beyond anything we could imagine.

However, I think it's also important to recognize that the value of mentorship is not always just in the knowledge shared, but in the time, effort, and energy invested in helping others succeed.

Charging for mentorship, especially at a high level, isn’t necessarily about exploiting others, but rather about recognizing the worth of your expertise, experience, and time. If someone is offering deep, transformative guidance that requires years of experience, hard-earned knowledge, and a commitment of time, charging for that service can be a reflection of the value it brings.

It's a balance – there's nothing wrong with asking for compensation when you're offering something truly valuable, especially if it's going to help others grow in ways that can also benefit them financially or personally. At the same time, it’s also about being generous and offering support where you can, and not everyone who charges for their services is doing it out of greed.

We live in a world where time is a precious commodity, and sometimes, offering services for a fee ensures that your time is respected and that you can continue to help more people in the long run. Plus, the person paying for the mentorship might appreciate it more and take it more seriously than if it were free. So, while the reward from Allah is priceless, there’s no harm in asking for fair compensation for the value you’re providing.

fake news, just another sensational headline with no real substance

Same old pdp talk, repositioning every four years but somehow always ending up in the same spot and at this rate it's only a matter of time before it's completely defunct.

God bless Nigeria. God bless Tinubu

fuckingAyaya:
The 6.1 billion budgeted for travel's is fake or what?

Fake and sensational headline. IMF never issued a warning. Stop the spread of fake news.

This is clearly fake news, just another sensational headline with no real substance, trying to stir outrage without facts. ❌❌❌

more Governors are joining APC because they like what Tinubu is doing.

God bless Nigeria. God bless Tinubu.

HEAVEN4444:
Like it would have the leather and sewing kit and sewing thread and leather pen to write on it. I have scissors. Thanks

check jumia

True talk.

If the other parties aren’t doing their job you can’t blame APC for being the only one working hard and getting things done.

God bless Tinubu. God bless APC. God bless Nigeria.

Honestly it’s better for Atiku to step aside and let someone from the south.

Tinubu can keep up the good work he’s doing because even if Atiku doesn’t step down he’s still going to lose anyway.

PJtech:
Mummy Seee oooo

Wow 😲

What's the big deal? It's 4 for 200 naira at Mile 2 Lagos and even cheaper in other areas. Tinubu has done a lot in agriculture.

Adeleke is not picking Atiku’s calls now, Tinubu too strong, even Adeleke go so decamp follow Tinubu.

Tinubu is trying to fix many things but this power issue doesn’t make sense, how can 150 million people use just 5,000 megawatts, is it nepa magic?

Tinubu is trying to fix the country but this band A thing feels like we are paying more just to stay in darkness.

It's not enough to hit them even though most are found of that .
As a man hold your temper and walk away.

Sad! Women, please mind your tongue.

Lol your guy need beg those chickens with apology corn and maybe do community service inside the pen, na real poultry vendetta be dis.

that water can actually heal people or do miracles. Alhamdulillah

It’s great to see people supporting Tinubu now because he is a great president and deserves our support.

It’s people who are not happy Tinubu won the last election that are making fake news, good thing NCoS spoke the truth fast. God will save Nigeria from these people.

Wike is really working hard to change Abuja for the better.

🤔
This kind of news just makes things harder for other Nigerians trying to live and work abroad the right way.

Everyday247:
And there goes two more..... 😔
Thread members still standing, indicate 🌝🖐️

This is a smart move, Tinubu is working hard for Nigeria, and we need to keep supporting him for more good things to come.

Falana just likes talking big on TV, but when it's time to face real action, he always dodges.

This really shows how peaceful the southeast has become under Tinubu's government, great things are finally happening.

nairalandadeux:
I am not a catholic, and I don't follow their doctrines, but the Pope francis was obviously a genuinely nice and kind man.

👍

Wow, Tinubu sounds genuinely heartbroken. He is very sad about the pope’s death and you can see he really cared a lot about him. 😩😩😩

This new anti-spam bot is causing shege. 🥴🤔
