In act of war, if you don't kill,you will be killed irrespective of who he or she is

After all, Ukraine have Russian citizens fighting for them too, some Ukrainians have people fighting for the Russians, IDF consists of people who are Muslims from Palestine, but they are still bombing there, allegiance and fighting for what you believe and staying alive....

What about those that soldiers have killed nationwide,I meant innocent citizens, has any state government visited them to support them,what about the ones bomo haram kills on a daily,are the citizens guilty of any crimes too? Those that died in the crossfire at aba nko.... my grand uncle wey just buried his wife,we all came back for the burial and left, a month later, soldiers came to the village and said they were looking for esn, each compound they entered they scattered house, unfortunately they came to his compound and saw a bike and started asking the old man were are his children and telling them they have all left for their various countries, these guys no gree oo, used shovel to batter the man, they left,he started receiving treatment before dying.... Nigerian and Nigerians have failed everyone of us... nobody will say they've never had any encounter either with government or its agencies or the citizens.....
Food › Re: Have You Eaten Guinea Fowl Meat Before? Does It Taste Better Than Chicken? by sonofsteven: 2:39am On Jun 01, 2024
Eventoned:
I had guinea fowl meat for the first time a few months ago. There's this place where they sell it in Shomolu and it tastes better than chicken even though they're very similar.

Have you tasted it before and how do you compare it to chicken?

At the end of the day whoever is not affected will approve the project and whoever is affected will be strongly against it. Then of course there are those who are not affected in any way but their strong hatred for the country will always make them criticise everything.
Constructive criticism is not hate you know

Well,there's a building in foshan(jishanwa) if I'm correct with the spelling.. the owner of that building was offered an opportunity to choose any bedroom of his choice,the government will buy for him, and still pay him monthly payments for the use of his land because road will be Constructed there, after much promises the man still refused to give in, the government left the land and built a road in front of the house,the road passed his front since his land no reach there, now what I'm saying in essence be say, we need to start respecting people's rights and seize from demolition without compensation no matter if the land was sold wrongly, because before building, you go to government to collect approval and all yet they didn't tell the owner otherwise then after building the same government will come to demolition saying it was built illegally... just saying

As a woman you are blessed with the gift of controlling your libido, it’s only through low self esteem, and low self worth that a woman opens her legs to secure a relationship.

If you can control your legs then you can walk away with the biggest fish in the ocean. Broke smelling dusties get a platform today because women have dropped their crown, adjust that shi and these brokies will get a job or die trying. Heaven has always been at the feet of women. 👸

The Police are not and should not in any community of civilized people be used as debt or levy collectors, or in the resolution or settlement of disputes amongst people, as such use of Policemen often lead to infringement on the fundamental rights of others
In china, you can petition the police involve the police on debt related matter or any business dispute

Police will come and invite both of you and try to settle the matter, the next step if not settled will be court...

The guy could have respectably followed the police, what if he was invited and didn't show up? What if the car dealer said he defrauded him and the guy scaling fence shows he had bad intentions

Romance › Re: My Relationship Of 7 Years Is Going Down. I Need Help!!! by sonofsteven: 7:46am On May 15, 2024
Lukmanraji:
My gf of seven years has been giving me attitude recently which I noticed sometimes last year. I observed that she always check my phone to look for something to hold against me. Yes, she suspected that I'm having something with someone. So, every time she's around me, she always find one or two thing that will lead to argument and all that. Aside that, the respect, love and intimacy between us reduced drastically.

Fast forward to this year, She successfully read a chat on my phone where I was talking dirty with someone. That's the genesis of the whole mess I'm in right now. She just walked out quietly and decided to end it all. Since then, I've not been myself because this is the person I have planned to live the rest of my life with. So, I started begging her but she's not giving me any green light. I called, messaged her but no response. I asked my Junior brother to beg on my behalf but she didn't succumb to that not until my dad intervened to apologize on my behalf.

So, she call me that we need to see. I rushed to visit her and apologize again and again. She agreed to continue with the relationship but she hasn't forgiven me. After few weeks of the whole issue. I suspected that she's hiding something from me. Then one fateful night, I spy on her phone when she was unlocking her phone. That night, I was able to access her phone while she was asleep.

I checked her WhatsApp, I discovered that she has been clearing her chat with one particular guy who happens to be her friend from NYSC since 2021. They became close as they both work in the same financial institution but in a different branch. Then I went further to her Instagram page to see what's going there.

To my greatest surprise, I discovered that they have been having an affair since 2023. My gf has been throwing herself to this guy, they have been going to the cinema together and other places. On her birthday, my babe and this guy went out together without my knowledge, they both book uber to somewhere without my knowledge, they were both sharing their feelings online, talking about marriage, how to raise their kids irrespective of their religion differences and my babe even throwing herself to the guy for sex. Everything thing I found in their chat especially how my babe has been treating this guy with love and respect is the opposite of how my babe has been treating me lately.

So, I screenshoted all the evidence and save on my phone. I then challenged her that she's cheating on me with that guy but she blatantly denied it. Not until I showed her all the evidences with me before she began to cry fowl and started debunking all I saw. She claimed that they are not true, they were just playing and not into any thing serious. They are friends and that's how they banter each other online. All her excuses were not genuine but I still forgive her on one condition that I don't want to see her with the guy again and she should cut off any form of friendship or relationship between them because I had done something more than that to her just recently and she forgive me.

Meanwhile, during the cause of this issue, I proposed to my gf that we should take this relationship to the next level by seeing her parents this year and maybe by the end of the year, we do the whole thing. The shock response I got from her was that she's not in a rush to settle down with me. Not even this year as she's just healing from the heartbreak I caused her and I can't use marriage to tie her down then I continue breaking her heart. There's no how I tried convincing her that I am a changed man now as I am ready to take responsibility and be a responsible person.

After few weeks, I logged into her whatsapp on my system and then again I found out that she's still talking to this guy and they were even planning on going out again. I got angry and send proof to her but guess what, my babe para for me for cloning her whatsapp on my system. Hell almost let lose that evening. This time around, she felt unapologetic about the primary issue that I warned her to desist from. Funny enough, after close observation, I learnt that they move their chats from whatsapp to Snapchat where their chat is just "view once". Then I knew that this lady is not ready to stop talking to this guy. I have shouted over and over this matter but this time around, my babe is now feeling lackadaisical about this issue.

Right now, my babe is now comfortable with the guy and she's now sitting on defense about this matter. In our last conversation, my GF literarily told me that she doesn't love me anymore. And then she started rewinding all my past during the cause of the relation and using it as an excuse for not been able to love me like she used to. In our conversation, the only thing she didn't mention is that we should go on our separate ways (break up) but everything she said to me indirectly simply means that she is done with me.

I felt unloved as this is the woman I never placed anyone above, this is the woman I've nurtured when we were in school and outside school. I respected her and love her so much that she has become part of me. My parents, family and friends are expecting us to tie the knot soon but here is my babe telling me she's not in love with me anymore. I felt unloved about this whole thing and I'm heartbroken.

I am lost and crying inside silently as I never expected someone I have sacrificed something huge for before to be acting like this to me. I'm depressed. I need mature advise from you guys. Thank you.

RenaissanceGuy:
LOL. This is very incorrect. Kuwait removed 3 zeros from their currency?? Do you know how wealthy that country is? It's a lie; maybe you are referring to Ghana who did that about 18 years ago or thereabouts, not Kuwait. The dinar was 1 dinar to 1 pound in 1961; today it's 1 dinar to £2.6 —meaning more than 60 years later, it's now nearly 3 times more valuable than pounds while almost every other country's currency is below the pounds. Reason: Sensible leaders and crude oil.

You think if Nigeria even decides to revalue its currency against the dollar at the rate of ₦1 to $1, our naira would still not depreciate to ₦17/$ within months?? It's stability we're talking about, if not every country would simply do so and start boasting to have stronger currency than the US.
Exactly besides if it's possible for this government, they would have done it before buhari left power

It's not easy

Throwback just dey try defend himself

If numbers were equal worldwide

Then anyone buying something higher will be termed as a country with high purchasing power

Eg.. 100naira is 100dollars

If US con dey buy water 2dollars and we dey buy water 1naira then we fit talk

But if I'm spending 10dollars to eat to my satisfaction, while in USA that uses dollars, someone using naira will say we spend too much on food because he couldn't eat to his satisfaction with the same 10naira..am I supposed to use naira in a country that uses dollars... things are made cheaper to them that lives in that country and make their money in that country

I dey chop African food here with today's rate it's 10k per morning, 10k afternoon and night more than 10k depending on the food I want to eat but least is 10k naira

You will say it's expensive but to us here,it's cheaper because 50yuan is 50yuan not 10,000yuan

So let it be 50naira too

You can't use your own currency to judge another's currency because what you buy with naira is cheaper when they convert their money into naira
Business › Re: Top Ten African Currencies Compared To US Dollar by sonofsteven: 10:52pm On May 11, 2024
muhammaduyusufu:
In Ghana, a loaf of bread is more expensive than in Nigeria. The spending power or what that currency can get you i.e. value is what matters.
The way una dey reason sef

In china small table water na like 2yuan (400naira )

You don't need to judge a currency based on your own currency

Will you say yuan or china purchasing power is high?

Now the reality should be

1 is 1, 100 should be 100

Which means 2yuan should be 2 naira

If water na ordinary 2yuan, I should be able to buy water 2naira

You can't say because your naira is weak, others buying with their currency is something else

A pack of indomitable(5pcs ) in china I'd 14.99yuan

Which is almost 3,000naira

If you check am in dollars through naira it should be almost 4dollars will you say the purchasing power in china is high? No

5kg rice na 400yuan almost more than 80,000naira
Now all these I mentioned are cheaper here when you are making your money here and spending here

I hope you understand

You don't use your own currency to judge another's spending power or currency

If you are to do that

Let 1 be equivalent to 1

Let 100naira be 100yuan

Then if they are buying things higher in numbers then you can say their purchasing power is higher

Most of my appliances like TV 85in refrigerator double door etc na here I buy am

Because with 5,000yuan you buy bigger things wey be almost 1million naira in naija...

With these explanations I do hope you understand
Business › Re: Top Ten African Currencies Compared To US Dollar by sonofsteven: 10:34pm On May 11, 2024
CodeTemplar:
Currency conversion ratio is of little significance when you consider that currencies can be adjusted.

For example, the Kuwaiti Dinar (KWD) is the strongest currency in the world with a single Kuwaiti dinar buying $3.25 US dollars (or, put another way, one US dollar equals 0.31 Kuwaiti dinars) but can the Kuwaiti economy measure against USA or other advanced economies?
As a matter of fact, kuwaiti dinar was adjusted by taking away three zeros to make it the world's strongest. That's something anyone can do and become the worlds strongest currency but not necessarily the world strongest economy.

Money is a just a metric system that can change based on goods and service backing it or can be recalibrated to ease management of money system.
Then Nigeria should do it that way if it's possible as you said

That way we can buy things cheaper with dollar

Someone said indomie is 55 cedis, which he calculated in naira and asked what Ghana is doing on the list... can you buy indomie pack of 5pcs for 55 naira ?



Make the government add or subtract the zero to make naira strongest currency, e no go bad if 1 dollar na 1 naira
