Crime › Re: Dr. Akintunde Bowden Shot Dead By Neighbor During Dispute Over Loud Music by sonnie10:
psalmsjob:
He should have called the police on her instead of confronting her himself to avoid this touching stories. Take life very simple. Someone playing loud music will not play it so forever and you could actually take a walk if you're disturbed by it or do something else rather than tell them to lower it for you by force it could or it does cost people their life as we can see now.

I think he had an over bloated sense of importance and paid with his life... These charges are weightless and she could be out on parole after a few years.
Blaming the victim rather than the perpetuator is not a very kind way to look at the issue. It is against city ordinance to play loud music in most places. Actually, he did what any reasonable good neighbor would do. First ,attempt to address the situation among yourselves before involving a peace officer , if it is not resolved. In a place you live, it would not be nice to create that feeling of animosity by calling the cops on your neighbor on every slightest issue.

The truth of the matter is that most times, just the accent when you talk as an immigrate, irritates some of them, let alone challenging their bad actions. Add also the fact that he is a doctor and most likely lives in a better house and drives a better car which she probably sees as intimidating everyday. These alone is enough to build long resentment, which the doctor would not have been aware of.

Ishilove:
You couldn't have said it better. My sibling just did his passport and paid 70k, while the officer who did mine years back told me last month that the 5 year passport is now 80k. Just imagine o. Despite everything the government put in place to stop this, they are still running their extortion schemes. Nigerians are the problem, not just the government because the government is a reflection of the populace.
Other than the chip in the new passport, I don't see anything new in the process. I got my old passport from New York about 10 years ago, the process was the same. Filled the form and made payment online. Only went to the office to capture and collected same day.

-Installation of Tiles( Toilet and kitchen tiles)

Pls which one should come first between the two listed above?
Do the bolded first and leave the other for later. You don't want all the workers using the toilets and shower whenever they come to work. Its a brand new house, it should smell fresh as you move in.

Please pardon my ignorance. Why are you not extending the rods at the pillars to the entire height of it? Do you consider doing the whole height a waste? Is it going to be a dwarf fence?

Computers › Re: Bill Gates Says How Much Of His $101 Billion Net Worth His Kids Will Inherit by sonnie10: 4:35pm On Apr 10, 2025
My believe is that whatever comfort and luxury $101B can provide, $1B can provide it as well.

Any additions ( in terms of living a luxury life style) would either be madness or nonsense.

Why u dey yarn like this.. They say the rent is 1.2m u say dey should share with people..


Oya share 1.2m among 3 people and tell me the total if it's still not more than the total nysc is pay for the whole year..
The bottom-line is that a Corper has nothing to do with such priced accommodation.

I don't know what life experience you have, but one thing I know is that life has a way of humbling everybody. However, the secret of success is hidden in determination. Whatever NYSC brings, is nowhere to be compared with what the future hopes.

I don't understand the way some of you reason. In lowly yenagoa, where I am currently, before you see a vacant selfcon in a relatively safe environment, you'll sweat and be milked seriously by agents, and definitely nothing less than 500k for a good selfcon. This is yenagoa, now imagine how it'd be in Ph and Lagos. Also keep in mind that these are young people who are being sent to places where they know no one and of course will prefer a safe neighborhood, maybe an estate, for security, especially for young girls. Also keep in mind that they do not have a lot of time to find an apartment, In yenagoa, you might spend over a month looking for a good selfcon, these corpers do not have that luxury cause there's no family member to take them in for the most part, so they're obliged to take the first option that can see that's relatively okay.
My point is that the corpers are the victims here, they did not ask to be sent for service, if FG were to make the NYSC voluntary, I assure you that most people would prefer not to go for it. FG forces graduates to go through this and should therefore provide for them for the duration of the service. Imagine all the corpers that have died on the road from kidnappers, bad roads etc, believe me, I wouldn't wish nysc on my enemy with the way the economy is and FG's refusal to implement their minimum wage
Even in the almighty US, people live in their car and go to work from there until things improve. There is nowhere in the world where everything is ok. People are suffering everywhere.

Why should you impose sharing an appt with someone you don’t know ? Most of the rooms don’t have locks on . Friends share appt not with a stranger you met for 3 weeks at camp ! Allawee should also include cost of living . Giving a Corper N33 when living in Lagos and Auchi is insane as in cost of living higher.
The place of postage ought to subsidize wherever the corper wants to stay.
Nobody is imposing anything on you. At some point in life, you have to get out of your comfort zone. Some graduates that did NYSC and even had years of experience but japaed, are even sleeping on the street abroad because they are yet to settle. Life is not bed of roses, whatever you need to do ( within the bounds of the law) to pass through a stage in life, do it.

Hehehe, 1.2m rent isn't luxury in some cities, it's actually the basic selfcon rent currently
There is no high rent area in Nigeria that does not have a close -by cheaper area. Any Corper that is fixated on living on Wall Street is a thief.

You're obviously not knowledgeable on NYSC to say FG provides lodging for corpers, that's honestly the silliest comment on this thread. FG does not provide accommodation for corpers, they expect the PPA to do that and most PPAs expect the corpers to sort out their accommodation by themselves. When I served, we were 6 and all 6 of us stayed in a dilapidated lodge provided by the school. No light, no ceiling, no water, pretty much only good enough to lay our heads to sleep for the night.
Some university graduates serving in the military have be living in Sambisa forest for years just to protect you and I. One year of service is not life sentence.

lets say house rent is 500k, how does 73k per month help any corper even with high cost of living and transportation
There is no size of appt you can't share with another corper, even one room can be shared.

What helped him most was the fulcrum point. The distance between the effort ( his position) and fulcrum ( the attachment to the wall) was long enough to increase work-done.
Just like using long pipe to support wheel spaner to loosen tire wheel nut,
