Gentle0wavez: Solomon said on Ecclesiastes that to eat, drink and enjoy the fruits of your labor is the only good that this life has to offer, and he was a wise man so I concur
Remember that if you eat until you are sick, you must fast until you are well.

alecx: I'm based in Osun state, I have someone who can but rather chooses to speak English.
That's good, I asked because of the suggestion I had in mind. One thing you can do is tell close friends/colleagues who speak fluently to regularly speak to you in Yoruba. Also, you'll need to make it a point of duty to regularly (and mindfully) respond in Yoruba. I notice that I personally prefer to speak in English but there are people around me who regularly speak in Yoruba (you can trust our people never to disappoint in this department) and I find that after three or four interactions, I start responding in Yoruba also. You may be laughed at initially due to your lack of fluency but that that will fade away over time. You can also follow movies or programs broadcasted in Yoruba and then you try to imitated phrases you typically would find challenging. You'll begin to flow well overtime.
alecx: I am a Yoruba girl, I was brought up in an English speaking home, I learnt how to understand the language but I later realized when I was grown that I could not speak it. I can speak it but not fluently and I have trouble articulating my words since it doesn't come naturally.
I want to ask if it is still possible to learn how to speak the language fluently since I am in my twenties and I have found that it is very essential for day to day activities. Suggestions on improving my fluency in Yoruba language are welcome.
Thank you.
Where are you based? Do you have people around you who speak Yoruba fluently?
Finally, after so many years away from the topflight. I hope they don't drop early. They'll need to commit their coach on a long term as he's actually very good. Let me go check if they have fine Jersey for the season.
B3ACHSIDE: Equatorial Guinea : 30,000km2 / Population : 1.3 million / Yearly Oil Revenue : $5 Billion dollars
Equatorial Guinea gained independence from Spain in 1968. President Teodoro Obiang, currently Africa’s longest-serving leader, seized power in a 1979 coup and won reelection to another seven-year term in 2016 with 93 percent of the vote. The opposition protested the result as fraudulent. They were all rounded up and executed. Equatorial Guinea was once one of Africa’s fastest-growing economies and sub-Saharan Africa’s third-largest oil producer, but today it's underdeveloped because of corruption, falling oil revenues, and lack of diversification.
Godlovesyou28: No. Thanks. I need your prayers cos am loosing my...
Hello dear, it is really sad reading through all you have been dealing with. I could never fully comprehend it. I read through hoping it will end up as a fairy tale. So far you've been very strong but you will still need a lot more strength as well as patience. You've gotten so much advise so far and I would not want to cloud your judgement by adding too much. Hope you sleep better now a days? How are you coping with the psychological stress? Please listen to the guy who spoke about depression. May not be the case with you but most times people don't realise they fell into depression until they begin to come out of it. Was hoping to check on you with the other issues of neighbors and accommodation but I'm overwhelmed by this.
udoekere: Just lately i came across a post on nairaland stating that one needs to study computer science in the university to be a good programmer. but my question is do i really need to study computer science to be a web developer?. I don't really want to know a damn about algorithm and data structure,i just want to focus on web development.. your opinion will be appreciated.thanks

Not necessarily but it can help you become a better web developer and make it easier to climb the corporate ladder if you don't focus on freelancing.
azvm: 2014. i met a guy on Nairaland, i'll call him C. i'm not a new member, only using a new moniker. I was 27, him 29 (now we're 32, 35). i'm yoruba, him igbo. we met in Religion where we were encouraging one suicidal, depressed dude in a thread. he PMed me abt liking what i wrote then the friendship began. we had things in common, had interesting discussions, talked about ourselves and families, problems, etc. we agreed to be in a ldr, communicated mostly over email, whatsapp texts. we've done video calls too several times and till three years ago but i put a stop to them bc he was always asking me to show him parts of my body
2016. i was doing a school research project i needed a website for. C told me he knew someone in Nigeria to build it for me, said he would pay him the money, about $100. after the website was built , a week later he started hampering me to return the money, hurling insults at me, telling me i stole his money and he would tell everyone i took his money and ran. i told him i thought the money had been a gift. we were in a relationship, i didn't think i had to return it. after all the verbal abuse i sent him the money -actually sent him more than $100, then he was happy. it wasn't until i told him how bad his behavior was towards me that he apologized. after this, he wanted me to visit him in Nigeria (we had talked abt me visiting Nigeria since 2015) but i couldn't make it. he soon quit talking to me, disappeared. i didn't hear from him at all for three months, no calls, no nothing. i ended up meeting a man here, a Jamaican. i wasn't attracted to this man, we weren't in a relationship. i don't want to get into these details but i was sexually assaulted and lost my virginity, at 29. i reported to the police last year, it's still an ongoing police case. i somehow blame C. i've felt if he hadn't disappeared i wouldn't hv fallen into the hands of this rapist. C knew my goal was always to save myself for marriage like i had been doing.
rewind. some background. before i met C, i was in a relationship when i was 25, in 2012. 2012. i met a yoruba guy my Uni. he was an international student. we never had sex due to me wanting to wait for marriage. we kissed, hugged during our weekly outings. we saw each other once a week for movies, dinner, bowling. he ended up cheating. 7 months later, i broke up w him. this dude is history but is who i consider my ex if you ask who my ex is. i consider this relationship my first ever relationship, the only real-life relationship i've ever been in all my life, though a non-sexual one.
back to C. 2017. he did encourage me after i told him what had happened to me, provided moral support. but he then disappeared again. when he contacted me four months later, i was upset, we exchanged some words over email- mostly me calling him dishonest, unfaithful, untrustworthy, which were all true. he took things too far and was verbally abusive calling me horrible names and using the things i've told him about myself to insult me, like the sexual assault. he apologized later but i was quite hurt. we decided to start anew for a relationship mostly doing whatsapp texts and email as usual. he isn't a phone call person, he has the tendency to need his space for a week a two- i never complained.
2018. he disappeared again this time for 8 months, from april to november, no communication at all. i had told myself to forget about him. he suddenly called my phone one november afternoon 5 times. when we got to talking he confessed he was engaged to an igbo girl in Nigeria, was busy making preparations for the marriage but her family were making too many financial demands so he opted to call it off. i was shocked to hear he had been engaged. i told him he only contacted me again since the marriage plans didn't work out. he apologized, said it's me he wants to marry, i'm a simple girl, i'll give him peace of mind, blah blab blah. he wanted us to start where we left off. i told him i no longer trusted him but said we could try again, see where it goes
2019. we continue and things were fine till Valentine's Day. a week before V-day he said he loved me, promised to never leave me again. on Valentine's day i got no Valentine's message from him either or email or whatsapp, no call, nothing. meanwhile i would see him on whatsapp. fast forward to two weeks later i needed a logo for a blog of mine. i found a guy on nairaland for it. initially i wanted to send C the money to give to the guy but i decided to send him the money myself, i sent him the money then C started ignoring me. long story short the guy didn't send my logo after receiving the money. i told C, asked him to call the guy for me to release my logo, he refused. after this, i stopped communicating with C myself this time, he didn't contact me either, not till later last year
2020. fast forward to last month he told me abt his laptop which got damaged after a power outage. i started looking online to buy another laptop for him ( i didn't tell him ). my plan was to surprise him, send it to him for his birthday in October. we chatted on whatsapp the next day, i was doing my best to make him feel better, asked him what laptop he's using now, other questions to show him i care. all of a sudden he went of on me calling me deplorable n all sorts of names, saying stuff he knows will hurt me. i dunno maybe he was having a bad day or what. i told him i was planning to buy another laptop for him but he carried on insulting me. i blocked him. asides, his communication towards me recently has been sexual -he's always talkn abt wanting to make love to me, how attracted he is to me ( he has my pics ), how i'm his fantasy. he emailed me days later talkn abt me being the love of his life. he first refused apologizing for all his insults said over whatsapp, he said he doesn't need to apologize before i forgive. he finally said "i'm sorry ok" days later, i told him there's no more relationship. he says he doesn't want to let me go, i'm the only one who understands him. lately i've been thinking abt sponsoring him or going to nigeria to marry him. despite the fights he hs been my friend over the years. plus i'm thinking being in the same place may help us bond a lot better, start a family someday. my fears are he may not be a good father or husband, will be abusive, or i may find out he's got a wife in Nigeria. what do u guys think i should do?
*he's still on nairaland though not too active. he may or may not see this thread... it wouldn't matter either way.

Lol.... My dear, don't be wicked now.These people forget that votes are won with ballots (and unfortunately, rigging) rather than likes and shares. But since you are asking, who am I not to 'vote'?
chukemmang: According to numerous scientific accounts, our planet has experienced series of ice ages. Ice Ages are time periods when the entire surface of our planet was covered with ice, leaving the entire planet extremely cold.
It might be understandable how some warm blooded animals might somehow survive an ice age but it will definitely be impossible for cold blooded animals (reptile's) like snakes to survive.
In the present world we live in today, countries like Greenland and Ireland do not have snakes because they are very cold. So how on earth did snakes survive the ice age's?
I hate snakes, I don't know why God created them, I don't know why God still allowed them exist even though it was impossible for them to have survived through time.
Nice one op.... Though science has numerous ways of explaining themselves around this such as stating that the entire earth wasn't exactly covers by said ice. Science has its limitations but most scientists try not to admit them
neuroboy4: I switched on my Dell Laptop some days ago, then at the bottom of the window logo while booting, it was showing "preparing automatic repair" and all of a sudden, I saw this weird blue screen displaying the message:
"Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart, we will restart for you"
It will restart and display the same blue screen error and the loop never ends...
I know this is a problem with the OS.
Someone should help with a solution pls.
My Laptop: Dell Inspiron N5040
Maybe clean your ram, then restart the system with the OS installation CD to enable the start up repair. The gurus will add to this.

Tapout: yeah sure you are right...karma does locate them one way or the other which might not necessary mean them being caught and going to jail. A lot of them that went broke cannot even explain how they spent the money. I know cases of Yahoo boys dropping dead or going mad just like that. All I was only trying to say was that his show off made Karma locate him faster.
Tapout: Avoid unnecessary show of is the main take home from this....because weda u like it or not, there are fraudsters way more wealthier than hushpuppy. Not talking about politicians, i mean regular guys like i and you. Maybe if he wasn't showing off he would have also made it to Forbes list atlest b4 he was caught. Do u remember years bk when guys washed their Rolex watches and the likes with champagne and you see it everywhere on IG ?? Why are we not seeing such clips again?? The guy used his hands and brought himself down. U know say u no legit, u dey show off. Dude even had beefs with artists who made it to the top via struggle and legit hard work. He's done for life, cos even when he's out of jail, I doubt anyone will want to associate with him or anybody with any sort of connection to him.
Boss, although you are right in so many aspects, we must recognise that karma doesn't watch out for those who did or did not show off. It comes upon us at his own desired time/season.
Do not be surprised if this comes up in the FBI documentation about his life and arrest. Case was similar for Invictus Obi. What we can take home from this are the same old words we've been feed for many generations. 1. Patience is key and in-exchangeable. 2. Crime does not pay. Karma will always catch up with you. 3. The sleep of a 'labourer' is sweeter and better than that of a rich man 'thief'. 4. There's nothing new/hidden under the sun.
