Oga use Google to find out what U are saying. I can't be talking to someone who thinks one way. ChatGPT already said opposite, my search on Google said opposite then why I go they waste time they follow you talk.

i de tell you reality of things and you de tell me chatgpt wen still de stuck for September 2022

Abeg no need argue with you

chopnaira:
You maybe mixing things up. Compare countries to countries i.e. UK to UK
And US to US.

As a trucker in the UK, you won't make more than a doctor in the UK.
As a trucker in the US, you won't make more than a specialist doctor in the US.

And truck driving is not a menial job as well.

I highly very highly doubt an electrician would make more than a doctor in the USA. I work in a field where the best paid electricians work. I know what they earn and I also know what my doctor friends earn.

I did from my previous reply
Don’t say what you don’t know

A professional electric linesman makes 50$ an hour

Please google it

How much is minimum wage for doctors in US and UK

9jarockstv:
You drive a truck and you earn more than a surgeon in the UK. They lie to yourself there. 😂😂

yes
It a fact

A surgeon makes like 50-80k pounds in a year which is like 60k+ In dollar

If you ready to see my pay stub I will show you
I make more than that

On a very good month I make 7k+$ plus tax doing otr


A construction worker here makes 30 dollar and hour this one is just to help oh no even the main job

Electrician
Plumber
Surveyors and other trade skill make more money that nurses and doctors

But they won’t tell you
Cause only Watin de ona mind na school, tech etc

Na only here I de see truck driver de drive moto of 60k$

Watin doctor and nurse no fit even drive

forgiveness:
So driving truck is menial job? Some of you no dey use head.

olodo 😂🤣
If it not part of menial job then what it is
Werey baby please tell me 😂😂

Bro abeg leave them jare

Am a truck driver here and I more than my wife who’s a university graduate and a lot of certification to her name

Skilled trade jobs are the main thing now
But people don’t know

You can’t blame Remi na
After all her druggie husband is there to make way for her

79733139:
So let me get this right:

1.) You saw that you were being cheated by a store clerk and you didn't stop her.
2.) You didn't report her to the owner or manager of the store
3.) You decided to write an epistle on Nairaland complaining about unethical conduct amongst Nigerians when it was well within your power to not only stop that fraud from occurring but to make sure that the store clerk gets punished.

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”

So what do you want us to do now? Less than 0.01% of Nairalanders live in Chicago.

Next time you are being cheated, stop it.

I wanted to bring up this issue, but my wife stopped me because she knows the kind of scene I'll create there.

Additionally, I want to clarify a point from my previous post, like I mentioned she runs the store solely by herself, I meant that she owns and operates it independently.

The reason I'm raising this issue here is because I know there are other Nigerians involved in similar activities, not necessarily in Chicago but in other American cities or developed countries. We should learn to look out for one another and be our brothers' keeper. I'm simply trying to raise awareness because when negative incidents occur, the blame often falls on all Nigerians collectively, which isn't fair. i did tell what she did was wrong and i left

Thank you."

Putindbutt:
Which country would allow bloody civilians kill 22 of their gallant soldiers at once?, is it the US, China, Russia or even Ghana, go and try it in any country and see the entire community and their lineage wiped out within six hours. You ragtags kill soldiers and expect them to look away?. By now Nigeria Army should be flying tucano jets over the community and be dropping bombs, make una feel the roasting bokoharam and bandits dey feel.

all the soldiers wen bandit and terrorist don roast for north how many tucanos jet them don use. I’m not in support but this isn’t how to do things.

Nigeria is a useless country full of useless citizens if not what happened to investigation and fishing out the killers

Why burn down a whole village just for a few
Does that make sense to you

Cabalgeneral:
You need development mindset

so for your mind now you get developed mind set with the nonsense you put up

It is well with you mr developer

Why do some individuals in Nigeria resort to fraudulent practices, even cheating their own fellow Nigerians? Today, my wife took me to an African grocery store not far from my mother-in-law’s place in Chicago. Upon entering, we noticed that none of the items had price tags, which was unusual, as I've been to similar stores where every product was clearly marked. After selecting our items, we waited behind the counter as the Nigerian woman began scanning them. Strangely, the prices displayed on her computer did not match the products' actual prices. For instance, a seasoning for suya showed up as $2.75, but she manually changed it to garlic powder for $7.99. Despite my urge to confront her, my wife subtly signaled me to refrain. As we left, I expressed my disappointment in the Nigeria local pidgin, informing her that she had lost a customer and would receive a negative review. It's disheartening to see fellow Nigerians engaging in such dishonest practices, disregarding the trust and respect we should have for one another. How many others has she cheated in this manner? This behavior is unjust and unfair. If the government were to intervene and close down her store, the only narrative would be that of a Nigerian cheating people out of their hard-earned money. Let's strive to do better, wherever we find ourselves, and uphold integrity and honesty in all our dealings.

Why? Because it is not an American company. Tik Tak is just like YouTube short videos
Tik Tak popularity took Americans by supprised and they are clamouring to Ban it in America Maybe they will succeed this time around. Wicked politicians every where.

it not about that bro
It more about privacy theft
TikTok is owned by china and china is a friend to Russia

Now do the calculation your self
The more reason they banned Hawaii too
The more information ona American citizens re with these foreign owned companies especially from china is a big risk to Americans

If TikTok wish to remain in America
Let them bring their headquarters to American
Under america law and rules and also pay taxes
And why china go banned Facebook, google, twitter, WhatsApp etc from their internet space
Binance was an example
America no de joke with their enemies especially china and Russia

A man who lived in an iron lung for seven decades after contracting polio as a child has died.

Paul Alexander, of Dallas in Texas, US, was paralysed from the neck down after contracting the virus at the age of six in 1952.

According to a GoFundMe page previously set up to help pay for Mr Alexander’s care, he died on Monday.


Fundraising organiser Christopher Ulmer wrote: “Paul, you will be missed but always remembered. Thanks for sharing your story with us.”

Mr Alexander died after being rushed to hospital with Covid, according to reports.

At the age of six, he was taken to hospital after developing polio symptoms and woke up inside a mechanical lung. Mr Alexander, who was given the name “the man with the iron lung”, lived inside it for the rest of his life.
The iron lung acted as a diaphragm to help Alexander breathe after a doctor performed a tracheotomy on him to remove the congestion from his lungs following his polio infection.

Because of his polio he was unable to breathe for himself.

He was unable to move or talk inside the metal casing, and would often go unwashed because he was unable to communicate with the nurses looking after him.

His father placed a clear plastic stick, flat and about a foot long with a pen attached, which he uses to write and push buttons on devices such as mobile phones.

Alexander was one of many children placed inside iron lungs during an outbreak of polio in the US during the 1950s.

Later, he learned to breathe by himself and was able to spend short periods of time outside the iron lung and got into university, obtaining a law degree.

He also published his own memoir in April 2020.

“I knew if I was going to do anything with my life, it was going to have to be a mental thing,” he told The Guardian in 2020.

Polio is a serious infection that is now very rare in both the US and UK because of a vaccination programme. It is now only found in a few countries and the chance of getting it is very low.

Health officials declared a national incident after the polio virus was identified in sewage samples taken from London between February and May 2022, but no associated cases appeared to have been identified.

There have been no confirmed cases of paralysis due to polio caught in the UK since 1984.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, frequent epidemics saw polio become one of the most feared diseases in the world.

A major outbreak in New York City in 1916 killed more than 2,000 people, and the worst recorded US outbreak in 1952 killed over 3,000.

SoNature:
Insensitive? Yes!

You can accuse him of being flippant and stolid at the same time because he doesn't know where to and where not to crack jokes.

Bitter? No

Akpabio isn't a bitter person, please. God has really blessed him so he has no reason to be bitter.

you see your life
Someone who got his wealth through corruption and you call it Gods blessing

SMH 🤦🏽‍♂️

Nahunger:
Women are dangerous, with them nothing is a surprise.

don’t stereotype bro
Humans are generally dangerous

Tonytonex:
what are the necessary traditional rites for cleaning it?

As a man, if you still love her and choose not to send her away, you can take her to your hometown. There, the eldest member of your family will lead a ritual where you and your wife will wear white wrappers. Kola nuts and white chalk will be placed in your hands as prayers are offered. Afterward, you both will eat the kola nuts and blow the ground white chalk into the air, symbolizing purification. However, a stern warning will be given to your wife, if infidelity occurs again, she risks losing either her husband or the children.

Nahunger:
Some times this women can put juju into the man's food and take full control of them, no man will willingly know the consequences of his actions and pretend not to care.

I don’t know of that cause na only nollywood and internet I de see that one oh 😂🤣

OriOko88:
Is this for real?? So the man could have actually died cos of his wife's cheating??

very real oh

As an urhobo woman you dear not cheat cause the consequences will be severe

In urhobo
Once a man pays a woman bride price and she cheat their is a very dare consequences that comes with it

I remember how my brother lost his first daughter because of the infidelity of his wife

I guess the guy knew his wife was cheating and didn’t do the necessary traditional right to clean the mess

Which lead to his death
It is well

The same light when I de pay for America every month as my normal bill ny some people de come here de shout

In as much I don’t trump I think I want him to win this time. How will illegal migrants have more say and benefits than a legal migrant
It uncalled for even to an extent illegal migrants benefits more than it own citizens

No na

In all he said
He said Peter Obi is clean
That one do me

But I know with report investigations Obi has put on these issue will be massive

I trust Obi on this

Imagine we Yorubas presenting this man as Apc candidate or osinbajo many Nigerians won’t even care of who Peter Obi is
But guess what

Lot of them who can vote in some one like thieftinubu to govern the south west allowed him to govern the whole Nigeria just because of tribalism, religion and politics

Nigerians are not ready yet
