Left for me alone, I and my husband will give my daughter's hand in marriage free. No matter the amount of money paid by the groom as bride price, it can never be equivalent to the money invested in her even at nursery school level alone.

The exorbitant bride price paid by the groom is the reason why most men nowadays maltreat their wives because they feel the women are now their properties. We have to change this this mind set

What is this so-called "maltreatment of wives" everybody keep singing about? My dad never maltreated my mum and before he died, he thanked her for giving him the best of lives as a spouse and blessed her. More than 40 years they were together. So I don't understand it really.

ChiefAzubuike:
This is why its preferable to marry from the Yoruba tribe. All you need is a few handful of ewedu leaves and the girl is yours.

Is that so? What about the list of 41s?

What kind of silly, deceptive headline is this?

EmmaStone01:
Will you advise that a new freelancer creates a Nigerian account or use a VPN to flag another country cos it seems from what I read here, these sites are beginning to catch our little tricks.

I have zero-tolerance for any type of "little tricks" (fraudulent behaviour), which includes using a VPN to attempt to deceive Upwork by claiming you are in another country when you are in Nigeria. Read my comments in the first 5 pages of this thread and you will see my position clearly stated.

Left to me, all those who do such stuff should be banned permanently. I never used a foreign VPN to open my accounts, and I never will. Instead of resorting to using foreign VPN, please become a digital nomad and emigrate to Ecuador or Costa Rica.

For Ecuador, all you need to get a PR is to prove you can make $800 a month in freelance earnings. That country actually recognizes the freelance industry as a contributor to their GDP and encourage people to come there. From what I have heard, that country is way better than this our country.

This man has come again! He should borrow from the bank like the last time.

peacengine:
Upworkers, I have this Nigerian account for almost a year now no job. Recently I got a small job. Upwork immediately asked me for a video call verification. Do they usually ask for verification for Nigerian account too?. My profile is 100% complete

Your account is Nigerian? You are in Nigeria? You no get wahala naa.

Juliearth:
This is very sad. Please may I share this on Sdk blog? That hospital has to be sanctioned.

You see, this is the issue. Most bloggers are more interested in traffic than in posting stuff that will expose the real issues. I was in a teaching hospital to conduct routine tests prior to donating blood. The head of their lab services came around and shared ONE pair of gloves each to the lab staff to use for the day. ONE PAIR in a lab that tests for HIV and hepatitis.

Before my eyes, 10 people were being tested as well for donation. 7 were told they were unfit for donation. Perhaps they had HIV or hepatitis. I could not imagine myself working with one pair of gloves in that environment. I had to personally arrange a packet for the staff as my contribution.

So bloggers, take out time to go to our hospitals and see the rot. Ask questions about what is happening to the funds allocated from our national budget for health.

Our president is travelling to get treated abroad. Politicians and their families are all getting treatment abroad. The problem is bigger than rude doctors.

Jaqenhghar:
Actually Im NOT in Niggeria. Yeah its Niggeria, Nigger -area the spelling was deliberate so joke's on you. Im actually glad many doctors are leaving . Let them see how work is done in sane climates. No one listens to your bullshit excuses about how work is hard. Even in the UK doctors complain.. nowhere is perfect but you double down , work hard and God help you if a patient dies.
Actually you are at the level Liberia is you just dont know it yet when it hits someone close to you your eye go clear. So long sucker

You are the sucker. Fuk*ng illiterate who cannot spell.

Jaqenhghar:
If Niggerian doctors are that good as you claim they shouldnt write any exams and undergo training to practice over there. Niggerians keeping the NHS running. What a joke. Peope who ca t make a simple diagnosis.... hahaha
Keep hating me I hope you choke on that hate and die slowly

I don't argue with idiots who can't even spell the nationality of their own country. One of my neighbours who is a doctor just left for the UK last month. There are thousands like her leaving Nigeria for the UK, US, Australia and other locations MONTHLY!

Fools like you never bother to get your facts straight. That is why I say Nigeria is UNFIXABLE. Leaders of this country can afford to send their kids and themselves abroad on a moment's notice. I know someone who was evacuated from an accident scene and paid $12,000 an hour to a helicopter company in PH. These are the ones who can afford it.

But people like you who are stuck in Nigeria are not bothered about the rot in the system that is driving our doctors out of the country by the thousands.

May we never get to where Liberia is now, where there are less than 70 doctors in the entire country. That is why when Ebola hit Liberia, it hit them hard, and one of them decided to carry his illness to Nigeria and ended causing the death of Dr Adadevoh and several others.

Chai!

So PMB even went cap in hand to beg for money. Na wa o.

Jaqenhghar:
Will you keep quiet there? I should go and tell my friend. Am I your messenger? Look at the horseshit you put up. Is the job of a doctor to survive or help patients survive. ..because they cramm books alone we can see the result nah. Or you think the people dying are flies with no souls. Let me tell you dont know. The same Niggerian doctors take they bullshit over there do your research. Currently most cases of malpractice in the UK are by Niggerian, Pakistani and other doctors from shitholes.

You are a rabid liar! I hate rabid liars like you. Nigerian doctors are the ones keeping the NHS running in the UK. Have you ever gone to British Council to see how many doctors are writing the exams to go to the UK? IfrNaija doctors were that bad, why has the UK not shut the door on them but is still taking them in large numbers.

OP, you should have taken the man to the military hospital naaa. But I commend your efforts. If na police, they would have allowed the man to die there on the road.

Benekruku:
Suleman will still be denying he didn't finish Stephanie Otobo and Danielle Okereke from the back despite all hard evidences.


Kudos to the man for apologizing

What are these "hard evidences"? Tell us please.

TheLogicalMind:


Grace will never cover up the sins of an unrepentant sinner. When you fail to confront your demons and overcome them by the Blood which was shed on the Cross, then your sins will multiply and follow you wherever you go in life. Even if you end up as a Pastor or Bishop, you'll be traveling with those sins and the end result is that you will end up embarrassing and shaming yourself.
This Pastor should simply apologise, resign and seek God's face.

It is the holier than thou people like you who commit even worse sins in secret.

The man has recognized his fault and openly apologized and confessed his mistake. Such are the ones that find favour from God according to Luke 13 verse 18.

Benekruku:
Can't he take his Father's money again


Or whose money is he stealing

So in your house, your son can just walk to your bedroom and take your money at will? Is that how you train your kids?

eyinjuege:
Canadians dey enjoy be dat. Many people in the US have little or no access to healthcare because no ego/kudi.
In the UK with free healthcare, if you go to your Dr na 10minutes appointment you go get. Some clinics will tell you , you can't bring more than one complaint. Some will say not more than 2 or 3.
Before you can get appointment atimes, you wait for one month. By the time your appointment reaches, your sickness has gone sef
If you're seeing a specialist in a hospital, you can get 6 months appointment. Atimes, you will have 1 or 2 years before you can get your operation done (for non emergencies). Until they see you are dying, you're not entering their theatre just like dat o.
However, if you go private in the UK, your surgery can be done within 1 week. You can see a Dr same day, if you so wish.

The healthcare system in Canada is paid directly from taxpayers money. How many Nigerians are up to date with their taxes, and if yes, when last was the FIRS accounts as well as those of the state IRS departments audited in and out?

I have said it before and will say it again: Naija is in in UNFIXABLE state. There is no hope.

Abeg, how much is a doctor in Nigeria paid?

A police sergeant Step 01 earns N48,540 per month. This is probably a guy who has passed through the horrible police college facilities that PETA cannot advocate pigs to be kept in. He comes out, spends at least 10 years with all manner of risk to his life to get to rank of Sergeant where he cannot even earn N50,000. Then he gets posted to FSARS. Is it a wonder what we are seeing with FSARS where disgruntled and unhappy policemen have turned on the citizens fullscale?

Apply same to a doctor with all the years of training and exams and they come to work in suffocating conditions. Look at all the victims of Ebola and Lassa fever. Nearly 70-80% of victims are doctors/nurses. What do you expect in a country where the President has to travel out at the country's expense to treat his ear problems? Even state house clinic was alleged at one time not to have even panadol.

Abeg leave matter. The problem is with the Nigerian society. The country is sick from top to bottom: in my opinion, Nigeria is UNFIXABLE. We simply have to live with that fact. Atiku, Sowore, PMB, Durojaiye, Moghalu and others cannot fix the country. It is our lot. We have to live with it.

NobodyKnows:
Sorry for your loss .
But I don’t think you need a vacation to get over it .
Have you cried ?
If no ,stay indoor and cry your eyes out. Then sleep . You’ll feel better .

Crying is the only thing that can help in that case.

Is that the Mr "We cannot take it"(Orubebe) or are my eyes deceiving me?

Ugosample:
You are right

Liberians and Ivorians

Enjoyment na im dem sabi

Not a license to throw a calculator at a grown man in the office environment. You try that in the US, the victim may show up the next day and gun you down Mr MD.

Yeye man.

Watch this video of Michael Schumacher, the champion racer playing a match with the likes of Zidane, Pable Pauleta, Ronaldo de Lima and co.

If you know, you know.

Please, I hope "the other room" will not come up in the agenda for discussion.

These Brits are thieves.

Same way they stole all the artefacts in the raid on Benin Kingdom in 1897, and then claimed that those artefacts are better preserved in temperate climates and that is why they cannot be returned to Nigeria.

Robbers!

No matter how old a leopard is, it can never change its spots. We saw this coming and we warned. But the change proponents did not listen. Now here we are.

CNN reports a lot of fake news.

Have we all forgotten the fake Niger Delta story reported by Jeff Koinange which made Frank Nweke take up Jim Clancy? CNN stood by its story but later found it was a fake report. Jeff Koinange was quietly sacked.

CNN is a load of bullcrap. Nobody watches it in my house anymore.

They all know PMB makes a lot of empty noise. That is why she came herself to see if our youths are truly lazy and waiting for oil money.

Philtrust:
What issues?
Issues on helping people here abi

Create your own thread and advertise your services. That is simple courtesy and decency.

stevedre:
Escober things. He should watch his back cuz the Italians don't joke with religion.

Even the Mafia hold church stuff as sacred.

Wicked pastor who is right now in hell for committing murder.

Why did he not consider his wife and three kids? Selfish man.
